How can I prevent user from posting in parent 1 but allow them to post in any of the children

I have GD bbpress tools plugin.

Hi,
Mentioning is not standard in bbPress 2.5. You could try a plugin like bbPress Toolkit or other to obtain it.

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,
I suppose you would have to apply the same idea onto also the bbPress functions like bbp_get_current_user_name, bbp_get_author_display_name, bbp_get_reply_author_display_name, etc

[bymiki]

I would like to support this plugin, but I didnt find the way to make a donation for Bbpress. I have already donated for WordPress Foundation, but I prefer to do it for this plugin in particular plugin.

Thanks,

[Pascal Casier]

Can this help?

Layout and functionality – Examples you can use

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,
None of the H1 tags seem to be from bbPress. There is the global WordPress one and then another one at the bottom, probably from a plugin like ‘Backdrop’ or other.

bbPress is using WordPress standards, so if you have further questions on the use of h1, h2 etc, the best forum would be on https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

Pascal.

Hi Maxime,

Are you trying to import into 2.5 or into 2.6? If you start with a fresh bbPress, then please note that v2.6 has improved import capabilities. You can download the latest RC from https://bbpress.org/download/

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,
The importers have been given a boost in 2.6. So if you start importing, better try with the latest RC of v2.6. You can download it from https://bbpress.org/download/

ok, bit of code that does redirect but this is via wordpress login- this will be added to my style pack plugin shortly, with some further features, such as bbpress login

//add private forum check
add_action( 'bbp_template_redirect', 'rew_access_if_logged_out', 3 );

function rew_access_if_logged_out(){
	$topic_slug = get_option( '_bbp_topic_slug') ;
	//quick check if we need to do this function
	if (strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], $topic_slug) == FALSE) return ;
	$login_check=0 ;
	$forum_slug = bbp_get_root_slug() ;
	//if check is set (ie we prefix forums with the forum slug) then part 1 will be forum slug and part 2 will be topic slug, if not part 1 will be topic slug
	$check = bbp_include_root_slug() ;
	$link = explode('/',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
	//next we need to topic id (post id) of the topic so we need to check if it is a topic and if so, find the topic id
	if (!is_user_logged_in() && $check && $link[1] == $forum_slug && $link[2] == $topic_slug ) {
		$post = rew_get_page_by_slug( $link[3], OBJECT, 'topic' );
		$topic_id =  $post->ID;
		$login_check=1 ;
		} 
	elseif (!is_user_logged_in() && empty($check) && $link[1] === $topic_slug) {
		$post = rew_get_page_by_slug( $link[2], OBJECT, 'topic' );
		$topic_id =  $post->ID;		
		$login_check=1 ;
	}
	//now we need to check if the topic belongs to a private forum, so can't be seen
	if (!empty ($login_check)) {
		$forum_id = bbp_get_topic_forum_id($topic_id);
		//if forum is private...
			if (bbp_get_forum_visibility( $forum_id ) == 'private' ) {
				$redirect = home_url() . '/wp-login.php?redirect_to=' .  urlencode( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ); ;
				wp_redirect( $redirect );
				exit;
			}
	}
}

function rew_get_page_by_slug($page_slug, $output = OBJECT, $post_type = 'page', $status = 'publish' ) { 
  global $wpdb; 
   $page = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_name = %s AND post_type= %s", $page_slug, $post_type) ); 
     if ( $page ) 
        return get_post($page, $output); 
    return null; 
}

I have read this topic : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/smf-import-to-bbpress/page/7/

And currently trying to figure out the way to do it, I have massive forum. Seems forum system a bit neglected by their builder nowadays. (and I wish BBpress not the same).

Do the current version BBPress importer works with current / latest SMF?
Mine seems stucks at 5900 topic conversion something out of 13K topics. Im running conversion of 1.7gb database on xampp – localhost server with i7 and 16gb of ram with tweaked php.ini and-so-on.

Yet possibly another 450k replies waiting in que… now Im worried.

Seriously, no idea to identify which database column made it stucks…

[maximemue]

Dear all,

I try to migrate phpbb (3.20) to bbPress (WP 5.0.3). Two major issues (utf8 and missing database columns) have been solved and now the routine is running. All users (1600) are already migrated. Now the routine tries to import the 200.000 posts. It runs smoothly until 16500 posts, then it slows down and keeps stuck. When I stop it manually, it restarts for another 50 posts and will stop again.

I have no error messages, it just does not go on migrating the posts. What is the issue?

Many thanks for your help!!

Best

Maxime

Hi. I installed bbpress, but every topic have too much h1 tags, 2 around topic title, and 2 around “link-modal-title”. Example: https://zarabotokvinternete.net/topic/business-strategy-xyz-otzyvy-o-shikarnom-hajpe/
Please help me detect where it comes from and remove it. Because it is very bad in regard to SEO

[Robin W]

bbpress sends the notification as a single email, with the noreply address as the to/from an the recipients are then bcc’d in.

So you can’t simply remove it.

you can amend how bbpress sends using this plugin

Hey all,

So I have BuddyBoss and Learndash with bbpress and I want to edit the single forum.

What I exactly want to do is place the Topic Area above the Forums Area. So just swap them around, how am I able to do this?

Thanks

[saudor]

Hello, I am trying to cut down on spam and defaulting all new users to spectator/subscriber mode and use certain “tasks” such as using the site to automatically change their role to participant/member.

I found this link but all it does is just make the forum role blank:

Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

BBpress Version 3.2. Updated to 4.1 but still same issue

[Olivier]

Hi !

Some texts are missing on the dashboard Widget : any idea ?
I tried with only bbpress plugin enabled and the default WP theme, same problem.

It was working when I installed bbpress the first time.
I already tried the tools provided to repair bbpress.

Thanks 🙂

[Barry]

The short and simple answer … is no 🙂

bbPress is a plugin for WordPress and it requires many of the features and facilities that WordPress provides in order to function.

What CMS are you using?

[qianjiu]

This is my website: https://www.9skymachining.com We are a mechanical processing company. I started with WordPRESS, but I changed it now. I am using CMS now, but I want to add a BBpress forum. I don’t know if there is any way?

[Robin W]

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that deosnlt work, also deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Then come back

Hello everyone. I’m using the following snippet that will display the first name and last initial for users in buddypress. However, in bbpress it has no effect. Any ideas on how I could edit this to get it to work for bbpress? I’m so sad that something like this isn’t a default option.

$changeLastInitial = new changeLastInitial;
add_filter('bp_displayed_user_fullname', array(
    $changeLastInitial,
    'last_initial'
), 7, 1);
add_filter('bp_get_member_name', array(
    $changeLastInitial,
    'last_initial'
), 7, 1);
add_filter('bp_get_the_profile_field_value', array(
    $changeLastInitial,
    'last_initial_xprofle'
), 7, 3);
add_filter('bp_core_get_user_displayname', array(
    $changeLastInitial,
    'bp_core_get_user_displayname'
), 7, 2);

class changeLastInitial
{
    function bp_core_get_user_displayname($name, $id)
    {
        $name = $this->last_initial($name);
        return $name;
    }
    function last_initial_xprofle($value, $type, $id)
    {
        if ($id == 1) {
            $value = $this->last_initial($value);
        }
        return $value;
    }
    function last_initial($name)
    {
        $name_a = explode(' ', $name);
        // if there is at least two parts to the name
        if (count($name_a) == 2) {
            // replace the last part of the name with the first letter of the last part
            $name_a[count($name_a) - 1] = substr($name_a[count($name_a) - 1], 0, 1);
            // put it all back together
            $name  = implode(' ', $name_a).".";
        }
        return $name;
    }
}

bbpress just uses wordpress registration, so the issue is with that.

Firstly check that you have membership ticked in dashboard>settings>general so that anyone can register.

If you are not receiving emails, then what is set in
dashboard>settings>general>email address
and does it match your site?
1. You should be aware that many spam filters strip messages that do not come from the correct address. So if your site is mysite.com and your email address in wordpress settings>general is fred@gmail.comthen it is likely that messages will be dumped in transit. You need to set up email to come from your site eg fred@mysite.com, your hosting provider can help if needed.
2. Just bbpress?
Then you need to see if this is wordpress wide or just bbpress.
Try https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/

Hi everyone,

I use WordPress 5.03 with BBpress version 2.5.14.
My website is http://club.geef-model.nl

The issue that I experience with my forum is that I don’t receive a notification when I new user is registered.

Most likely it is just one box I have to enable 😉
but I cannot find it.

I hope there is somebody who has the solution for me.

Thank you in advance for your help and response.

With kind regards,
Klaziena Waerts, the Netherlands

My site is in Dutch and when I must translate it, or change it (for a short while) to English is that no problem at all 🙂
