When I delete a user (with deleting all content) through WP backend and re-register the same username & email again the new user is assigned forum role Participant. User has access to the forums (which are protected by bbp_Private_Groups, but the new user is not able to start topic and/or reply to it.

PS: update: no user can post / reply anymore. It is due to the fact that there is 1 topic in my forum with an anonymous user (because that user has been deleted). Deleting that topic form the backend solves it.

Is there any other way to delete a user without affecting access rights for all users in the forums containing topics with posts from the deleted user?

Hey All

Forgive me if this has already been discussed but I was wondering if a fix to the pagination links of threads with 100 or more pages of replies has been resolved as part of 2.6?

The issue is discussed here along with code that resolves the problem:

Links to last post are wrong (pagination issue?)

Thanks!

wordpress version. 4.8.1
bbPress version 2.5.11
BuddyPress version 2.9.0

Website: http://forum.epp-forum.com/

We use the shortcode [bbp-topic-index] on our homepage. In this listing are also displayed topics, to which one has access only if one is logged in.
These topics should not be displayed if you are not logged in. How can we prevent it?

Thank you for help

One of the webmasters for our organization set bbPress to handle the blog comments and disabled wordpress comments. I want to change it back and use bbPress as a separate forum and not the Blog comments. Can I switch it back without losing all the current replies/comments?

Thank you.

Hello

I would like to know if you can limit the amount of topics that the student can create.

I’m using WPLMS with bbPress.

For example: When entering a student to a course, in the forums section, you can create up to 15 queries.

Our idea is to have a forum with that capacity of support per student. We need to generate a service that needs to give a limited support, since it will be with a consultation plan per company. Thus the client is told that he can do 15 queries per month, if he wants to make more consultations, he would have to hire 15 more consutlas.

I hope you can help me and if you can realize this idea.

Best regards.

Paul

Suspect you are using php 7.1
so 3 fixes
1. downgrade to a lesser version of php
2. upgrade to bbpress 2.6rc3
3. in bbpress 2.5.13 in includes/forums/functions.php
change line 1851 from
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’ );
to
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’, array() );
and change line 1796 from

$post_stati = $posts_query->get( 'post_status' );

to

$post_stati = $posts_query->get( ‘post_status’ ); 
if (!is_array($post_stati)){
    			$post_stati = array($post_stati);
}

Thanks for your support to fix it.

Runamuck were you able to resolve your problem as I am having a similar one and haven’t found answer yet. In my case the BBpress toolbar is visible in Chrome but not in MSIE. If you were able to resolve could you let us know how? Thank you.

I ended up having to dig this snippet backup for a new project and made some tweaks.

@struth Updated to only output if user is logged in.

I haven’t found any re-direct options in bbpress or buddypress, so my guess is that they should not have anything blocking it… but plugins sometimes conflict for other reasons. I would suggest using bbp style pack. It has it’s own login redirect plus a whole lot of other re-design features that I use a lot of. I am having a bit of trouble with the redirect but am working to get it resolved now. I have changed a couple of things that may be causing a conflict, but the redirect feature it offers is my preference. I’d suggest trying out the style pack plugin instead of using those other two since it is made for bbpress so it’s sure to be much more compatible.

Hi!

Im using buddypress and wordpress in general with bbPress. I want to know if somebody knows a way to give ALL forums a set of default topics. So for every new buddypress group if there is a new forum they already have a basic set of topics. Anyone know how to achieve this without setting it up yourself everytime a new group is added or a new forum is being created.

Wordpress version: 4.8.1
BBPress version: 2.5.13-6410.
Theme: Vantage
Toolbar is missing in bbpress for new posts and comments when using MSIE version 11.0.9600 but it is visible with Chrome.

Any ideas. Thanks.

[lulukala]

Am I not tagging this right? Heeeelp. I want to build my site with wordpress+bbpress but if I can’t get this answer I’ll need to find another solution.

[Robin W]

ok, I’ve been kicking this around for the last 3 hours!!

Capabilities are spread all over the files in bbpress, so it’s taken a while to get to something.

But I’ve learnt some good stuff along the way !!

This is close to a perfect solution, and seems workable

add_filter ('bbp_register_forum_post_type', 'rew_change') ; 

function rew_change () {
	$rew = array(
				'labels'              => bbp_get_forum_post_type_labels(),
				'rewrite'             => bbp_get_forum_post_type_rewrite(),
				'supports'            => bbp_get_forum_post_type_supports(),
				'description'         => __( 'bbPress Forums', 'bbpress' ),
				'capabilities'        => bbp_get_topic_caps(),
				'capability_type'     => array( 'forum', 'forums' ),
				'menu_position'       => 555555,
				'has_archive'         => bbp_get_root_slug(),
				'exclude_from_search' => true,
				'show_in_nav_menus'   => true,
				'public'              => true,
				'show_ui'             => current_user_can( 'moderate' ),
				'can_export'          => true,
				'hierarchical'        => false,
				'query_var'           => true,
				'menu_icon'           => ''
			) ;
	return apply_filters( 'rew_change', $rew );
}

add_filter( 'bbp_get_caps_for_role', 'rew_moderator', 10, 2);

function rew_moderator ($caps, $role) {
	if ($role == bbp_get_moderator_role() ) {
		$caps['edit_others_forums'] = true ;
		$caps['delete_forums'] = true ;
		$caps['delete_others_forums'] = true ;
		$caps['publish_forums'] = true ;
		$caps['read_private_forums'] = true ;
		$caps['read_hidden_forums'] = true ;
		$caps['edit_forums'] = true ;
				
	}

return $caps ;
	
}

The line

'capabilities' => bbp_get_topic_caps(),

should say

'capabilities' => bbp_get_forum_caps(),

and my 2nd filter should then make that work, but for whatever reason it doesn’t.

But as it gives the topic permissions which for a moderator are what you want for forums, it should be fine.

Hello all, I’m using WordPress 8.0 and bbPress2.5.13.

I have added this function to add the visual tab to the editor:

function enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
    $args['tinymce'] = true;
    return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'enable_visual_editor' );

When I signed in as admin is everything OK, the editor tab is selected by default and I can start to type. However, when I do as a participant no tabs are selected and I have to select one of them in order to start to type. This is not intuitive at all for participants that want to write a post in the forum and eventually they will leave.

Why is happening that? Can anyone give me support? Thank you in advance 🙂

[Robin W]

you need to get bbpress to use the correct theme template

see

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

item 8

[Robin W]

bbp capabilities are allocated against bbpress roles, so suspect that it would be easier to add forums to the moderator role

I think the capability you need to add is

bbp_forums_admin

so set to user to moderator and add the above capability to preferably the moderator role but could be the editor role

Hi,
I’m developing a site for a client (Worpdress 4.8.1) and I’m using bbPress 2.6-beta-2 to handle forums. The client’s main administrative account uses the WordPress role “Editor” and the bbPress role “Keymaster.” I want my client to keep most of the Keymaster capabilities, but I want to remove the Forum Settings page from their admin dashboard menu. I’m wondering if this can be done with the hide_menu() function.
For native wordpress pages, the function looks something like this:
remove_submenu_page( ‘<filename>.php’, ‘<filename>.php’ );
Can this work with the bbPress Settings page, and if so, which filename should appear in the function?

Peace,
Angela
