As it’s above the title, then it’s before bbpress kicks in.
you could try
if (is_bbpress) {
echo 'hello' ;
}
but may not work
Or try to add something to your theme page.php or equivalent before the title
Something like (this won’t work it’s just to start you off!)
$array = (2925, 3567,4567) ;
if (in_array ($page_id, $array)) {
echo 'hello' ;
}
where 2925 etc are forum ID’s
A user has created a topic in a forum. After responding, I wanted to move the topic to another, more relevant, forum. None of the options allow this and even “merge” only displays topics in the same forum. Please advise. Thanks!
BBPress Version 2.5.14
wow thank you very much, it works now
as both seems to work now, likely the first did not work immediately due to cache but works now, I appreciate it.
But sorry if I may ask another question here, I noticed bbpress has a widget to list forums, which i make use of but i wanted to ask if there was a way for it to show the to total number of topics on each forum at its side
suspect it an update conflict
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
1) okay but is there a way to hide it as i noticed those number,are not showing up in the bbpress support forum.
when they first log on they are allocated the default role that you set in dashboard>settings>forums.
you can use the bbpress logon widget in a sidebar, use the shortcode [bbp-login] on a page or post, use any wordpress logion plugin or technique, or add a login to your menu using
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
1. bbpress uses wordpress post database, so these are wordpress post numbers, so no, you cannot have different numbers for bbpress (without completely re-writing bbpress !).
2.
I also wanted to ask if there was a plugin that supported sharing bbpress topics.
None that I know of
How do i add a side bar in bbpress.
I want to add the the bar sames as in this bbpress forun called Topic Info which is found on all topic created.
Good Morning,
I am making use of bbpress but noticed a concept used I wanted to ask if it was possible it could be customized.
While using bbpress i noticed it makes use of #- post name as shown in the image below
https://postimg.org/image/pqswe6mud/
i wanted to ask if this could be hidden as it is displayed both to visitors and users as I also wanted to ask if it could be replaced with this format below
https://postimg.org/image/x6s6017zp/
As when a user adds a topic it shows #1 and as replies are being added later it follows from #2 further
As I wanted all to show the function starting from #1
I also wanted to ask if there was a plugin that supported sharing bbpress topics.
( i also noticed a concept used by a website that when user press that #-post number –
a link pos u asking the person to copy the link to share the post topic or reply
Some say any reply over what you could reveal person´s identity needs to be removed, if User wishes so.
If, only if, it is the true there is no way any forum owner/admin will ever bother searching through thousands of User´s replies. Whole account and all replies will be deleted.
Will leave a mess, but will save admin´s hours, days and nerves.
Specially as it is gray area. What is personally “revealing”. Admin would not only need to quick browse through replies, but study them very well. Cannot imagine any Admin would like to lose so much time on this stupid thing.
Second big problem are quotes, and nested quotes. How to deal with it. Of course if it is true about replies at all.
My personal feeling is as this law, regulation, is made specifically to target Facebook and Twitter. How will they deal with it. BbPress problem is a piece of cake compared to them.
I know users who are registered to use my site are automatically able to use bbpress. I dont understand the technical details. Do I need to install a another login page when installing bbpress or can registered users just go ahead and post etc. Would appreciate someone setting out the steps for me … thanks.
@stagger-lee,
I have been busy with it for a while. In fact the ideas behind GDPR are not new, it just that now they become clear and mandatory. Data protection has and should always be priority one.
GPDR is now specifying that how and what things are done need to be completely clear.
When a user asks for ‘what do you collect’ or ‘Give me my data’, it can be as simple as a csv file with all data (user profile, topics, replies) which seems to comply.
The ‘right to be forgotten’ is the one that needs much more investigation. Deleting the user is easy, deleting the replies too. But what about topics that were started and have replies from others? Or replies to the replies of this user? How about backups? How about search engines that indexed public forums? Mentions to this user?
I have started drafting some things that I will share (hopefully next week) with the bbPress team with my thoughts. I hope it can serve as an extra guideline.
Hello Robin, Yes. I have raised problems of bbpress to the theme author many times. But They told it is not covered by the theme support range as it is a third party plugin. So I am very embarrassed as I don’t have any help and support on BBPRESS.
You are not the only one. Today was first time I heard about it.
It involves a bit design consideration. Checkbox when submitting topic reply. Option for User to be able to delete account with all comments. Dedicated Page for bbPress about what is saved in database.
Some are strange and complicated. What to send to User when they ask what bbPress is collecting in database.
@adchix Did you try to import in bbPress v2.6 ? The import procedure have been reviewed so you might have more luck.
Try to install v2.6 from https://bbpress.org/download/ in a test environment.
Pascal.
When AMP plugin just update to Enable for bbpress,
But my website got 404 error with bbPress Permalinks with ID plugin
(https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-permalinks-with-id/)
Has anyone solve this problem?
Thank you.
I have a BuddyPress group “Sherlock Holmes” with a forum at https://andrewteg.com/bp/groups/sherlock-holmes/forum/ and have created two sub-forums (Watson & Moriarty).
I’d like for the sub-forums to stay in the group template. Is there a known way to go about this?
I’ve seen the main forum https://andrewteg.com/bp/forums/forum/group-forums/holmes/ redirects to the group forum and keeps topics in the group template, but the subforums like Watson do not.
This is a cross-post with https://buddypress.org/support/topic/sub-forums-inside-a-group/ as it was suggested bbPress may have the answer, since this is that area where they work with each other, and I’m not sure yet which I’d have to work with to get this done.
Thanks,
Andrew

What is stance of bbPress core about it ?
What needs to be done.
I have not seen anyone is working on a plugin for compliance.
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-single-forum.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/content-single-forum.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this
so change line 26 from
<?php bbp_single_forum_description(); ?>
to
<?php if (bbp_get_single_forum_description != 'This forum is empty.') bbp_single_forum_description(); ?>
Can anyone tell me where I can find someone? I’ve tried Upwork.
I need someone to import Invision Powerboard forum to BBPress. I have tried importing myself. I have the correct credentials, but I get WP database errors that are beyond me. The forum will be archived once moved to new location. The client just wants to keep the old forum for reference and history, but they don’t want to continue paying Invision for use.
If you prefer to use other forum software for the import rather than WP/BBpress, this is okay. I am happy to take suggestions.
bbpress doesn’t override permissions, and works fine on several hundred thousand sites. Sever or webpage cache is the almost certainly the culprit – why it was affecting you we will never know.
No not on the back button. I just mean they navigate back to the forum.
If I set the registration process to direct users to the page with the forum on, when they get there you have to refresh the page for the site to realise you are logged in and it can show the previously hidden forums.
To be honest I actually swapped over to Asgaros this morning. The fact BBpress overrides all permissions was the killer in all this. There was no way around it.
Not sure if its a server cache or something causing my original problem?
Hello Robin,
I have checked. But still I cannot find out why.
When I installed the bbpress, it is not installed as the default looks. maybe because the theme author revised it automatically ? So this plugin does not work?
Merci de ce retour 😉
Comment puis-je faire pour que des users puissent s’inscrire et poster sur le bbpress ?
Jen e comprends pas forcement commet faire, étant donné que mon site n’intègre pas d’article ni de Blog. Juste des pages statiques sans commentaires.
