@mentions work on my site in BBpress. You need to have the Activity function enabled in Buddypress.

Hi there!

i have a question:
this is my site: http://www.hiphopsardo.it
is it possible to create for each sections a discussion on bbpress?
For example:

Discografia http://www.hiphopsardo.it/discografia/ (custom post types) -> create for each a forum discussion here: http://www.hiphopsardo.it/forums/forum/discografia/

same for the other menus: Artists (custom post types), Recensioni (posts) etc…

i’ve tried the plugin “bbPress Topics for Posts” but it seems to be limited only to normal posts and you cannot divide the discussions per Category…

do you guys have any advice how to make it?

Thanks!
Andreas

Hi all,

I’m interested as to whether I can integrate the funcionality of buddypress reply forms into my bbpress forum {avatar display, fancy javascript stuff like @mentions suggestions box).

Has anyone tried this?

[jomo]

you may not want to add to the end of the menu, I’ve posted an alternative on:

How Do I link to Profile Page

to allow a simple link to forums/users/current/ to be replaced with the current user id or redirect to login

[jomo]

I added an alternative simple answer on more recent thread:

How Do I link to Profile Page

[90daykorean]

Currently in our forums, the bbpress username below the avatar seems to be the WordPress username.

How can I change it to be the username from BuddyPress?

Thanks!

Running WordPress 4.9.6 and bbPress version 2.5.14

When someone goes to https://www.togetherpuertorico.com/forums/forum/volunteer-events-opportunities/ and enters their correct username and password and clicks on login, it takes them to the default wordpress login page rather than logging them into their bbPress account.

If they login on the default /wp-login.php page and then go back to https://www.togetherpuertorico.com/forums/forum/volunteer-events-opportunities/ it appears as though they are still not logged in, but if you click the refresh button in Chrome, it now appears that they are logged in.

I’ve tested this with both a wordpress admin user level account and a standard bbPress Subscriber, Participant user role status.

I’ve looked in the server php error log and nothing is recorded.

I’ve reverted back to the default TwentySeventeen theme to see if the theme we are using was the cause, but it still didn’t work.

So this is what I understand from this thread so far, to provide clarity moving forwards:

1. Dynamic reply box that opens next to post replying to in forum is actually already a feature of bbpress, but not for BuddyPress group forums.
2. Some themes seem to not engage this functionality and the way to fix that is to copy the reply.js file into a folder called js that is at the root of child theme.
3. It works with visual editor

So the only problem is that it does not work for Buddypress Group forums. However, @robkk mentioned, earlier in this thread, a patch he made. But he has not been active on these forums for over a year.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2974
It is pretty easy to workaround this issue as well, since all you have to do is enqueue the javascript with a different conditional or enqueue it sitewide, but doing it sitewide might cause another issue somewhere.
Here I just added a bbpress-functions.php file to a twentysixteen child theme. I edited out the conditional causing the issues with groups. You can test this on my test site as well.
You would have to remove the file later if the trac tickets patch I linked to is committed and you are using version 2.6 of bbPress, so that you can have the file enqueued on the pages where it is needed.

The trac ticket he mention seems to be resolved yet it’s not working for BP group forums. The link to the code on cloudup is broken.

So that’s the summary of where we are at on this thread… the big question is, does anyone have any insight or can help with enabling the dynamic reply box to BP group forums topics?

Hi Robin,

Of course it’s super relevant for people wanting to build their own app using bbpress API.

But for noobs like myself who just want a mobile platform for their community without becoming app developers, I think Topic’it looks really promising.

Thanks for your bbpress advice and plugins btw, would be lost without them!

bbPress v: 2.5.14

Theme: Avada (unrelated to the issue)

I am in the process of migrating a vBulletin DB to bbPress, however, some of the topics in the DB are very old and have been inactive for a number of years.
What are my options regarding the removal of these old entries from the DB?

I feel like I’m the only person that wants to do something like this since I have been unable to find anything relating to old content cleaning on your forum, Google, or the WordPress plugin repository.

Where would I find information on changing the CODE /CODE button in bbpress to act like the wordpress CODE insert?

In other words in bbpress clicking the CODE button gives you`
in WordPress clicking the CODE button gives you < code > < /code >

I’m having an issue with a plugin since it handles how my CODEs are displayed and one or the other is broke pending which settings I use.

I hope that makes sense..

not sure if this is relevant

I’m building a bbPress iOS and Android app

[jamnet.kr]

ERROR: Are you sure you wanted to do that?

I found this topic… thank you…^^

[jamnet.kr]

My situation is… if I try to write text, then bbpress show me an “error”.

Would you mind check this image “https://prnt.sc/jotnub“…

I was installed and test about “peepso”. And after deleted peepso, I can not write post on bbpress any more…

Anyone can help me??

Bbpress users and developers,

After creating my bbpress forum I was disappointed to find there is no easy way to get full functionality (notifications etc) on smartphone, since tapatalk cut ties with wordpress.

I have found a new application called Topic’it, who have established compatibility with Forumotion and PHPbb software. Their app appears in both the android and ios app stores, and is essentially the same proposed thing as tapatalk.

They are searching for people to create plugins to make their app compatible with more forum platforms. They have given me permission to access their API, so I’m going to attempt this as a solo project, but it will take me time as I’m a computer hobbyist and not a developer in any way.

For the love of Bbpress, let someone more adept than me get over there and give it a shot!

Of course I’ll share my work here if I manage to connect.

Ah-ha found the issue.

I have a plugin that speeds up page loading: Async JavaScript

I turned that off and the text tab re-appeared.
I can exclude things from the above plug-in by script,
Do you know if the bbpress text tab thing is a script?
I can exclude it that way and keep the plug in.

[Editor Mike]

I use WP Edit.
There are some settings in there for bbpress which let you override the bbpress toolbar with the WP Edit toolbar, but I have checked/unchecked and cleared the cache to no avail.
I have also tried deactivating it…

I also have GD bbPress Tools and GD bbPress Widgets.
I have messed around with their settings and also deactivate them at the same time and individually.

[Editor Mike]

I have a forum that uses the visual tab and the text tab.
On the wpress side both tabs work, however when in the bbpress forums, the text tab is just blank.
It was ok yesterday and now is awol?

Any ideas?

Good day!

I was having issue on viewing private forum. It says “Oh bother! No topics were found here!”
See screenshot here: http://prntscr.com/joveye

Also I wasn’t able to create topic on a forum and was being redirected to a 404 page.

I already do plugin and theme conflict test but still it wont work.

I am using the latest version of wordpress and bbpress. The site is using Jollyany theme by JollyThemes. I even tried switching to twentyseventeen theme but still not working.
This is the site where I am having issues with: http://b-mforum.com/

Hoping for any solutions. Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I´m trying yo run bbPress.
My problem is that im trying with nested categories to sort the forums.
When i try to nest a category or forum to other, and i publish, any change is made and i cannot make this changes.

May somebody help me?

Regards,

[rlammers]

I found something that worked on my site (installed june 1st 2018 with current version of bbpress) but apparently can be solved.

On my site i just typed <script>alert(“hello there”)</script> in a post and the JS was executed (I was logged in as admin).

When I tried it on this site it did not work. Do I need to setup some filter to achieve this?

[Babblebey]

This should resolve the issue here for anybody who could have same problem

[Resolved] BBPress forum search not working

[basemaly]

Hi, there. I’m using BBPress with Commons-in-a-Box, and I noticed that some users are identified with their usernames, while others are identified by their ID’s. I’m trying to make sure only usernames are shown. I don’t notice any difference between different users’ profile info, but their profile URLS either appear as: http://www.mysite.com/members/ID_NUMBER or http://www.mysite.com/members/USERNAME. I’d like to make sure only USERNAME appears. The issue doesn’t seem to be related to Commons-in-a-Box. I’d appreciate any tips on where to investigate further, or how to regenerate all profiles so that only username links appear. Thanks.

may or may not work – but try

.avatar {
display : none ;
}

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author img.avatar, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author img.avatar {
	display : block !important
}

The original turns it off, and the second turns it on again for topics and replies
