Hi @tonyleev,

That would be a question for the support forum of that plugin. Maybe it’s this one: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/moderation-tools-for-bbpress ?

[Pascal Casier]

Hi @irishhealer,

Could you please try 2.6-RC5 ? You can find it on https://bbpress.org/download/

If you have the same issues, report back here.

Hi,
I am trying to repair the phpb3.2.2 import into bbpress. I have tried several imports since yesterday. I can see all forums, topics and replies in the back-end,but they are not associated with each other on import.

Using bbpress Version 2.6-beta-2. I’ve even tried the the latest trac importers.
Number of posts: 35976
Number of topics: 7199
Number of users: 1449
Can anyone help?

Hello,

I am receiving an error when I try to access the replies page from the dashboard. Every other page associated with the plugin works great except for this one. I’ve contact my host, tried another theme, deactivated all other plugins and even reinstalled bbpress with no luck.

Can someone please help me out with this issue? I’ve been researching this for days and I can’t find a solution.

Hello everyone!

I’ve set up a bbPress forum on a clean WordPress installation and applying the simpliest boxed theme to it (twentysixteen). I tested ie and everything was working fine so I made a child theme and started styling it.

Problem is, almost at the end of the customization, I realized that when I search something in the top form, the results page is completely messed up and I can’t seem to figure out why…

I’ve done some googling and ended up on these two topics:
Search css issues…
Template in Extras Directory for Search Results

But they didn’t help me because as for the first one, by using What The FIle plugin, turns out the files WP pulls up in the index and search restults are the same; as for the second one, I didn’t import any custom UI and the theme I created was made a child of twentysixteen which was quite vanilla as for looks.

I admit I’m not a sharp expert on the matter, but I’m out of options…
Does anyone have an idea of why the results page breaks so badly?

Thanks in advance for your replies!
Have a nice day 🙂

Hi bbPress folks,

i created this forum, all fine :)…
http://www.ayurveda-portal.de/test-forum

but when i want to go deeper in the forum, this 404 happens:
http://www.ayurveda-portal.de/ayurveda/forum/zweites-forum

Permalink’s setting is user-defined:
http://www.ayurveda-portal.de/%postname%

I have already researched for a few hours and now I ask you,

Hi,

I am having issues with using bbpress. When I post something in the forum, a user who is subscribed to the forum, then receives an email with a link to the post I have just created. However, the user will click on the link and then recieve a 404 page not found message. This is because the forum is private and the user is not currently logged in.

I was wondering if anyone has a solution to ensure that if a user is not logged into the forum, that they would get the Log In page to access the forum rather than the 404 redirect.

I cannot put a direct redirect from the post to the login page, because then this would happen for all logged in users too.

Any help would be greatly appreciated – I am not a PHP expert either, so please explain things in simple terms if changes to the PHP are necessary.

Thank you.

Hello,

We are using the bbPress forum on our clients website and for some reason the nested replies will not work. I have the featured enabled in the settings and I can’t seem to get it working. I’ve checked plugins and nothing seems to be conflicting. How would I go about fixing this issue? I look forward to hearing from you.

Thank You!

We are using bbPress v2.5.14 and WP 4.9.4

Forums link: http://www.wi-geocaching.com/forums
Recent Posts Link: http://www.wi-geocaching.com/forums/most-recent/

So all topics and threads behave as desired when clicking the ‘view reply’ link in that it will open up that topic, to the current/posted page, and scroll down to the post.

Now all of them behave like that but ONE. And not sure if the 900+ pages (13,500+ replies) is leading to the issue. On this one particular thread, it always opens up from the link to page 1.

Here is a recent ‘view reply’ link for that particular topic. The issue topic is titled “Thread Stealers With Too Much On Their Minds” – Recent Link: http://www.wi-geocaching.com/forums/topic/thread-stealers-with-too-much-on-their-minds-2/#post-2058859

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

[Robin W]

@studentfilmmakers As a start try using this plugin to style your bbpress.

bbp style pack

then come back with any further queries

[StudentFilmmakers]

I am frustrated with the lack of layout and theme availability for the bbpress. Yes, there are a hundred thousand themes you can use it with but a lot of them are only visually pleasing and not really made for functionality. What really bothers me is the use of the grey text that looks great aesthetically but it is not for reading. I am sure there is a way I can change the grey text and make the nice background show up after the post. I just have to find the person who can tell me where to edit this in the theme or style sheet. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I like the way this forums looks. Is there a link I can download the them at. The link above is not in my face understandable for me. Here is it https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/buddypress.org/public_html/wp-content/themes
What can I do to make this work as a theme. The steps to make this happen would be appreciated greatly. Have a great day and God bless.

Hello,

I am trying to create private topics with BBpress so it will be only visible between the creator and the administrators. Is it possible? If it is, where are the options to set it up?

Thanks and kind regards,

Hi all,

have gone through numerous posts on the issues of importing phpbb to bbpress. I have been using the latest RC version of bbpress. I am using latest version of WP and phpbb 3.0.11

I have tried cleaning, repairing, resetting and trying again. Nothing works. It shows everything as 0 items to import, no forum, no topics. Only it imports replies without anything else.

Any help will be appreciated. I really want to move away from phpbb forum 🙁

[Robin W]

these are the files you are after

bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-topic.php and
bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-reply.php

[hanza3]

I’m looking to do something relatively simple – move the tags in a single topic post up under the title, rather than under the search bar – their default position.

I’ve been going through to files to try and figure out where this code would be but since there are so many files in default > bbpress I was hoping to get some direction on where to find the relevant code.

Thanks!

[Cars10]

When you enter a forum, a list of Topics is shown, but the table header says “Forum” instead of “Topics”. I have checked the source code and _e(“Forum”, “bbPress”) is used, and probably elsewhere as well.
There does not seem to be a way to properly rename each label in bbPress.

1. I think the label is wrong as we list Topics and not Fora
2. Could bbPress not facilitate to rename more labels? Our customer even wants the label to be CATEGORIES rather than even Topics.

I know, I could add a JS per page plugin and do a jQuery to renbame, but that ius of course the LAST resort – bad design.

Thanks for any hints to achieve or a fix on bbPress (e.g. adding a filter for certain such areas)

I think I can set triggers on the wp_posts table. The problem is the concept of parent_post.

If you have the structure of posts:

A
B – C
– D
E

In wp_posts, A is considered the parent_post and B,C,D and E are considered replies.

However, in bbpress, I am following a different concept forum-like, where B is considered the parent of C and D.

This piece of info is not in the DB. How can I add a column in wp_posts where I keep the “real” parent of each post?

[zcoin]

I am struggling to implement a plugin / functionality to catch the likes and replies from a source user (giving the like/reply) and notify the destination user (the author of the post) in bbpress, the forum plugin from wordpress.

Are you aware of existing projects implementing this functionality in bbpress (even partially) ?

Which mechanisms / plugins are better to use to trigger actions in the frontend in this case? On the other hand, is it a better approach to put triggers on the database column?

I am more analyzing the database…it has good information, such as user id of the source user, post id. I am talking about the wp_posts table. However, the parent_post is the first post of the topic, so it is not the ierarhical parent post. I need somehow to identify the nested replies from the database, but I dont find the needed information there…

Thank you for your suggestions !

[Robin W]

you can never guarantee that every plugin will work with every other plugin or combination of plugins and settings.

suggest you :

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

hello
I am using events manager and members plugin. Installing BBPress makes the administrator lose events and other permissions while adding a keymaster role to the administrator

Can you help me understand what if anything in my set up could be wrong to let this happen.
How can I install without disturbing current user settings?
thanks!

[mauriziocrisanti]

I disactivate all plugins except BBpress… but nothing
