I’ve discovered it is a conflict with the Membership2 plugin (I wasn’t clearing the cache on previous plugin tests).

I would be interested to hear if anyone has been able to get bbPress working with the Membership2 plugin without this problem as they are supposed to be integrated but I can’t find any settings that might be causing this problem.

If I go to one of the forums from the main forum page and I click on the breadcrumbs to take me back a page, it doesn’t take me to the correct page.

For example, if the breadcrumbs show
Home › Forums › Forum 1
and I click on “Forums” it doesn’t take me back to the main forum page as it should.

Hi,

I allow anybody to reply to a topic, but I ask for their name and Email address, all replied are moderated, when I look at the reply under replies I can see the name but not the Email. I am sure somewhere I put “(will not be published)” after the Mail (required) label: but I cannot remember where I did that.
I have the latest wordpress, bbpress, bbp toolkit, bbpress moderation and bbp style pack installed.
Can someone help where to find the Email given please, I have spent two days looking.

Hello,
I want to duplicate my bbpress search results page. I want to keep the original page and have a second form that shows a personalized results page, how can I do this?

[dezrok]

Hi there, I’m hoping someone might be able to give me some advice on a fix for the following:

bbPress is working fine for Administrators, however, users with any other Site Role can’t read the Topics (even if they are a Forum Moderator or Keymaster).

For non-Administrators, the Topics index works fine and when you select a Topic you can read any Replies that have been made, as well as having the ability to post a reply (as long as your Forum Role is sufficient), all that is missing is the original Topic itself.

If a previous reply has quoted the Topic, then you can read the quoted topic within the reply.
The Topic exists, the original just isn’t visible to non-Administrators.

I’ve deactivated all plugins and the problem persists.
I’ve tried it with the theme Twenty Twelve and the problem persists.

Changing the Forum Role doesn’t affect the problem.
Only users with the Site Role “Administrator” can read Topics.
Obviously I can’t make everyone an Administrator and have run out of ideas on how to go about fixing this.

Wordpress 4.9.4; bbPress 2.5.14
Forum Link: https://www.getleanfiji.com/forums/general/

NB: The forums are part of a private membership site that is still under development. I have made one of the forums (which contains some test Topics and Replies) publicly accessible via the above link. Access to the site is controlled using Membership 2 and the Groups plugins, although these don’t appear to affect the problem.

This fix indeed has the intention to convert my phpbb3.2 forum to bbpress 2.6 beta 2 😉 The conversion is still running so i don’t know for sure 😛 #goodjob

@crookie I’m having the same problem. The BBSpoiler button works if I’m editing a post or a page, but it doesn’t appear at all in tinyMCE in bbPress. I’ve tried using tinyMCE Advanced, and the standard WordPress tinyMCE, both with the same results.

I’m currently working on a bbPress tinyMCE plugin, to allow me to include specific buttons in the forum editor, and if I can figure out how to make that work with BBSpoiler I’ll post an update here.

I’ve tried to look through the code for BBSpoiler, and I’m guessing that it’s missing an action or a filter to hook into the bbPress tinyMCE (but I don’t honestly understand actions, filters or hooks, so I could be completely wrong.)

bbpress needs a full wordpress installation and wordpress theme.

so to the extent that you can run a separate site with just wordpress, a theme and bbpress, then yes, but in the sense of having a main site with wordpress and a theme and just the forums on a subdonmain then no.

[mbeerli]

I found a post about 4 years old and read that this was not yet possible. I have my WP V4.9.4 installation on a domain for example http://www.abcxyz.com.
The question is now can BBpress be installed and configured to run on forum.abcxyz.com ?

thank you

bbpress ends notifications using a bulk email address of noreply@domain.com and bcc’s in the subscribers of that forum

so an email might be

to : noreply@domain.com
bcc : jon@abc.co, fred@defd.com, george@hhd.com

I suspect that you host provider/email account is forwarding this to you as admin.

Probably either talk to your host provider, use this plugin, or add the noreply@domain.com
address to your spam/blocked lust so that you don’t see them.

AsynCRONous bbPress Subscriptions

[herrflick]

Hi there,

With fun I am using BBpress in combination with WordPress. Also there is a huge activity on the forum.
However – every reply on the forum there is a reply coming in my mailbox from noreply@domain.com. But this email is being sent from noreply@domain.com (it’s the same).

I checked all files and WordPress settings. But this email address is nowhere to be used.

Any idea how to fix these emails?

Is there a way I can autosubscribe all users to a specific forum? I currently have a classified “system” but it is way too cumbersome. All I need is the bbpress forums.. “for sale” and “wanted”
but I need everyone initially subscribed to them.

[chumtarou]

Would anyone know how to add placeholder text into the visual editor version of the text area for forums.

Once we enable the visual editor option mentioned here, this option from WPMU no longer works.

Thanks very much in advance.

Hello!

So far I can only see topics on how to disable RSS Feed but I can’t seem to find any answers on how to add a subscription button for forums/topics/replies.

Is there any way somebody help me on how I can add in a subscription button?

Thanks!

Using Salient Theme

[stevehammatt]

I want to add a taxonomy (which I’ve already created) to replies which are in all forums except one. I’m struggling to find the exact functions that I need to use for this though, e.g. to check the forum name (I don’t want to rely on the forum ID in case that is changed in a reinstall) and to set the taxonomy. I can’t find a list of all functions in the documentation.

I’m going to be creating a child theme and I’m pretty sure that it’s bbp_insert_reply() that I need to modify. I’ve found that ok. But it’s what functions to call to do the simple test and set that I want to do that I’m struggling with, even searching the function files of other parts of bbPress. So it seems like a simple case of testing the forum name and then setting the taxonomy if the test passes, but I am unsure of the two functions to use.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, please? Thanks in advance.

Hello!

I notice Bbpress doesn’t have a feature for RSS feed implementation? So far I can only see topics on how to disable RSS Feed but I can’t seem to find any answers on how to add a subscription button for forums/topics/replies.

Is there any way somebody help me on how I can add in a subscription button?

Thanks!

[richard.miller]

I tried it with twentyten, plugins (other than bbpress) disabled.

What I mean by “not working” this:

All comments (and replies) are being listed chronologically, instead of “threading”, which I understand to be (1) appearing directly underneath the replied-to comment, (2) indented.

Neither of those things happen when a comment is replied to.

Clicking the “reply” link to any comment slides the screen down to the comment form at bottom. Though the form has a little “reply to (comment)” title, the comment shows up at the very bottom of the page, i.e. chronologically. Replying to that reply has the same result. No indent.

(I’d be happy to grant private access to the site!)

[Robin W]

ok, so if you say the forum is public, but hidden in buddypress, then we are on basic fault finding.

so as a test

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.

I’d start with buddypress. You are just deactivating as a test.

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

[pandraka]

Is there anyway to use a form with bbpress. I have a unique situation were the owner wants to use groups and forums, but also use a form within a forum so participants answer questions in a formatted way. Is this possible? has anyone ever done this?

[patbell101]

I have several special interest groups by category as standard wp posts. I want to migrate them from one site as blog posts to another as bbPress forum topics. What would be the best way to do this?

[bensainz]

I am having trouble getting the topic page template to default to the same page format as my forum page. I created a custom template “bbp-sidebars” that presents my forum page with a sidebar for forum page views and topic views. The forum picks up the custom template, but the topics page ignores it and defaults to the blog view template. So far I downloaded bbp Style Pack, bbp shortcodes, bbP Tookkit, Weaver for bbPress, and What the File to see if there was a setting to accomplish my goal. I also read multiple articles on custom templates, but none address the topic layout. Also, after a new topic or topic response is posted, I can manually go in and set the page settings to have it display the way I want. While my site is growing I can probably do this, but after a certain point it will be too hard to keep up.

I am using WP 4.9.4, ForeFront theme Version 1.04 as a subtheme under GeneratePress V 2.02
My Website is https://defensecareersHQ.com PW is “VetsHelpingVets”
An example of my issue can be viewed here
https://www.defensecareershq.com/forums/topic/how-about-l-3-technologies/

Also, please note I manually set the all other topic pages to display correctly. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

[Robin W]

I thought we had one, but can’t find it.

The best way into bbpress is to start with the templates – these are the most likely thing you’ll want to alter, and placing amended ones in a ‘bbpress’ folder in your theme will make weordpress use these instead.

so go to

bbpress/templates/default/bbress/content-archive-forum.php

This is the first template called, and all the functions and templates you want to use will cascade from here.

Hi,

i want to configure bbPress on my own theme. I am looking for a list of functions like https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference just for bbPress. Where can I find this?

Thank you!

[Robin W]

so..there is no any way to “hide” register form and just left social media login?

ok, we’re a bit outside bbpress support here, as this is theme/other plugin related.

where is register (I’m not good in your language!)?

Also, can you tell me how can I publish social widget shortcode in header of all forum pages?

if you are ok with copying coding and FTP files, then I may be able to help

[florianm]

For our restricted members bbPress forum, I would like to display a user’s BadgeOS points below their username next to their posts/replies. I already found some code to display these points but I am not sure if it’s correct and how to make it show below the username.

function badgeos_get_users_points( $user_id = 0 ) {
// Use current user’s ID if none specified
if ( ! $user_id )
$user_id = wp_get_current_user()->ID;
// Return our user’s points as an integer (sanely falls back to 0 if empty)
return absint( get_user_meta( $user_id, ‘_badgeos_points’, true ) );
}

Any help would be much appreciated!

FYI: we also use the latest versions of BuddyPress and the Boss theme.
