Hi

I recently imported a huge SMF into bbpress 2.6 RC 5.
It was faster than 2.5.x and even 2.6 beta .

Now i am facing a huge issue of misplacement of replies and users wrongly linked to replies. I am trying to run Recalculate position of each reply in each topic since past few hours and all i get is following error mesaged Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 73400320) (tried to allocate 200704 bytes)

I have edited the PHP.in and put in highest values i could think of .

Can someone please help me here

@stephen_edgar says if it timesout and we re-run it , it starts from the index wher it had stopped. Is it so ?

Regards
Kais

It wouldn’t be the same ticket thread. Perhaps I’m not explaining myself clearly.

The previous comment was spam promoting a dentist site which I have deleted, so ignore that.

On private groups.

You would set up a group say called ‘users’

You would set up two forums – one public where public posts can be posted as per standard bbpress, and then one that belongs to the private group ‘users’ which you set up above.

Users are joined to users group either manually or by default.

You then enable topic permissions opn the private forum, and set the topic permisisons for that group to Create/edit OWN topics. Users will only see their own topics and any replies posted.

If just keymasters are responding, then they will see all topics on that forum. If others will be responding, then set up another group and make them able to see the whole forum.

Hello!

We are looking to modify BBpress meaning:

– remove the possibility for anonymous users posting answers to questions.
– remove BBpress notices like ”You can publish HTML content” or ”You can use BBCodes to format your content”.
– remove the website field request when asking a question, along subject type and question status.
– add a name for the description field regarding the title of the subject.
– customize the right sidebar to include: add a question, search and categories of the forum.

We are using bbpress 2.5.14 and wordpress 4.7.9. Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you!

New stuff I’m working on for my bbPress android/ios app… First a threaded/tree view of replies to make the conversation easier to follow.

Here's a new feature I'm working on for the next version Ute Hub app, threaded reply tree to make it easier to track the conversation. #GoUtes pic.twitter.com/uzkEpjHx0c

No worries–I am looking forward to a nice weekend myself. Here are some more, possibly useful, details:

I installed bbPress on another, far more generic, site and got the same behavior–bounced messages to no-reply@site-name if any user had subscribed to a forum or topic.

I installed the plugin “bbPress Custom Topic & Reply Notifications” by Pippin Williamson and got its customized notifications, but also the no-reply bounces.

I deactivated that and installed “bbPress Notify (No-Spam)” by Vinny Alves, which said it provided the ability to override bbPress’s default subscription functions. Using this plugin seems to have resolved the bounces.

So it would seem to be a problem with bbPress’s subscriptions functions, and not a conflict with some other plugin or some other site-specific oddity.

I have a big decision to make regarding bbPress. I have an eCommerce site we are about to launch which uses WooCommerce, with about 70 plugins.

I could install bbPress (with all the plugins I need) in the single site as it is, but I’m concerned about having 80-90 total plugins in a single site (bbPress + Woo plugins).

Also, I’m wondering how all those bbPress plugins in the same site as Woo will effect performance. I’d really rather not slow the eCommerce down, or bbPress for that matter.

I know some plugins (scripts, etc) also load on every page/post even when they aren’t being used. I’ve seen and used methods to manage this, but it’s not a perfect science. So I might have bbPress scripts loading on Woo pages and vice versa. Of course the more scripts that load on a page, the slower that page becomes.

What I was considering was creating a multisite installation and installing bbPress in a separate sub site from Woo. This way, all the bbPress plugins and performance drain would be isolated more to that specific site.

Then again, I’m really not sure the best path to take. Any suggestions on where to go from here? Thanks for any help.

My installation is here: https://discusspf.com/community/

My trouble is with font sizes. OP seems to be too small, all further replies are decent size and anything included in a quote is huge. Is there a way to change these just for the bbPress part of my theme? I have the ability to add custom CSS for bbPress but don’t know what code to add. Can someone please supply code which will make OP and quote text the same size as all the replies. Thanks a bunch in advance!

From topic subscriptions I’m getting bounced email messages that look like this:

———- Forwarded message ———-
From: [name-of-site] <noreply@[name-of-site].org>
To: noreply@[name-of-site].org
Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2018 19:14:35 +0000
Subject: …

You are receiving this email because you subscribed to a forum topic.
Login and visit the topic to unsubscribe from these emails.

They bounce, obviously, because they have the same From and To addresses. There is no user who has this address, obviously. The mail is being generated by PHP–that is, I’m not using any additional plugin to send mail.

Any ideas on what might be causing this, and how it might be resolved?

I’m sorry that I can’t link to the site, but it is an intranet, so not publicly available.

Thanks. Something that truly gave a clean interface (like gutenberg or medium.com as mentioned) would be ideal. But if there are not currently options for that for the bbpress text editor, are there options to improve the editor from the default?

For example, to make it comparable to the text editor for ‘Discourse’ forum sites? (like https://discuss.reactjs.org/ or https://discuss.atom.io/).

I have heard there may be a way to turn on the tinyMCE toolbar in bbpress, which is an improvement.

However, I’m new to wordpress, but that seems to normally go along with a text editor that gives the writer two less than ideal options: a (i) “visual” option with the tinyMCE (the problem being it strips away a lot of formatting–for example removing tabs if you paste code in) or (ii) the basic “text” option, which is not great for a general audience bc it requires the writer deal with stuff like tags and html-jargon. Its also confusing to give users two different options that seem to do the same thing but in slightly different ways.

So, if a Gutenberg-like experience is too much to ask right now, is there anything around that can give users the straightforward toolbar experience of the “Discourse” text editor?

[Stephen Edgar]

Thanks @w3215, I’d love to see this sort of thing myself, or at least explore the idea and see how well a fit it fits a forum workflow….

I’ve not yet myself explored the possibilities of what we could do with bbPress and Gutenberg… I have a few ideas that I want to experiment with in the next month or so though…

I’d love to see and hear some more thoughts on these types of ideas the bbPress community has

[w3215]

Hi! I would like to provide the best writing experience possible for users of the forum I plan to set up with bbpress. Gutenberg is a good example–a clean “elegant” interface, options to go full screen (so the only thing user sees is where they will write), options to style with a button click, and option to easily insert code snippets with a button click. Its comparable to using good writing software, and no need for non-technical users to know what “UL”, “OL”, “Li” etc mean.

I have been looking through some plugins for styling bbpress, but I have not seen them discuss this aspect. Are there options available to make the bbpress text editor “elegant” in a way that is comparable to Gutenberg or the writing experience on a spot like medium.com?

I do have a plugin ‘bbp evergreen’ which removes all dates from bbpress

bbp evergreen

[Robin W]

the wordpress forums run on bbpress, for instance

https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/

this one has 39,000 pages of 15 topics per page, so maybe give it a speed test !

No reason why you shouldn’t just run a forum on a site – up to you

How do I remove the sending date of bbPress topic?

[w3215]

Hi There.

I am brand new to bbpress. I am starting a site that has functionality similar to a question/answer site (like stackoverflow). Is bbpress still the best option for that?

Details: It seems like bbpress is a great plugin, but I have concerns because:
(i) it looks like some people have had issues with bbpress’s speed as the bbpress-created forum grows, and

(ii) bbpress generally seems meant for inserting a forum onto a wordpress site as just one feature, not as the entire site itself. For example, bbpress.org (this site) has a number of different types of pages, and the forum is just one type. What if, instead, the whole site was the forum? Like on stackoverflow, where the entire site is geared toward the question/answer forum. In that case, the forum might be getting more traffic and forum performance would be more important, because it represents the entire site experience.

Is bbpress the best choice for creating this type of question/answer site, or should performance concerns lead me elsewhere? The main alternative I see is to build the site not based on a forum plugin, but based on other more targeted plugins geared toward allowing users to create posts, and then linking those posts together in a forum-like way.

Any info on this is much appreciated.

“bbpress” How can I display topic tags in a single post of topic?

[Partizan]

Ok i fixed my problem by leaving the forum root slug as it is and just went and created a new bbpress.php in my theme folder… and selected the look of the index page from theme in code.

Thank you!

[Dggerhart]

So rather than passing back over disabling all of the other plugings (there were only a few, anyway) I flipped this over.

I disabled BBPress. And re-enabled it. Which then took me to the settings page, which I saved with defaults.

The issue no longer exists … I was able to open Forums, the Drafts, edit and publish.

Sweet. Glad to be in here with you-all.

I’m very excited about how these tools can support our community.

Very best,

[Robin W]

here is fine.

ok so is this a new site? has it worked before and stopped working?

What has changed – have you added a plugin upgraded plugins or done anything to themes.

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

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.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

WordPress 4.9.4 running Idyllic Plus theme.

bbPress is Version 2.5.14

My site is… https://insideouthope.org/forums/

Forum Creation Editor has stopped “publishing” … I can build Forums, and keep drafts. But publishing has failed.

[chaten]

This might be a stupid question but inside admin>forums>forum name the editor page does not have the custom fields section.

Does BBPress not have this available? Its working on ll other post and page types just not BBpress.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Hi,
I got the below information from http://forum.wpbeaverbuilder.com/ this site .

You’ll want to check the bbPress codex for that. Check the link below for more info.
https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/

[ericross]

I think this could work try this code, may be it works.

1- Please add following code to Quick CSS in Enfold theme options under General Styling tab

.single-topic #bbpress-forums {
margin-top: 0;
}
2- They do not show up on the bottom by default. If you would like to show, please add following code to Functions.php file in Appearance > Editor

add_action( ‘bbp_template_after_single_topic’,’bbp_bottom_pagination’ );
function bbp_bottom_pagination() {
$output = bbp_get_template_part( ‘pagination’, ‘replies’ );
return $output;
}
