if it could already be done within bbpress, I wouldn’t need to put it in my plugin!!

[Rixter]

Thanks for that Robin!
I love plugins, they make WordPress very rich. But sometimes they interfere with other plugins. So I always try to search for a functionality or easy solution before installing an extra plugin. But I will have a look!

Is there a way to do this inside bbPress? Or in the ‘reaction’ settings or somewhere else?

just find this post

Forum Setup

But i would like to not display the sub forum

any one know how to do ? 🙂

[whimsymoon]

Thanks for your reply TKServer.

It was a compatibility issue between bbPress (or BuddyPress) not liking the version of PHP my new hosting co uses.

I really appreciated your help with this – thanks! 🙂

bbPress should focus on performance, not features, it has to be flexible to expand and customise, and team working on it needs to be able to maintain the core, not solving theme issues for all possible forum features. It is the same as with WordPress, core features extended by the plugins.

A lot of forums users need basic features, and they find bbPress easy to setup and use. And, there are a lot of other features added through plugins to extended the bbPress, and users can choose what to install and use.

If you need more forum features, I can recommend my Toolbox plugin for bbPress: https://plugins.dev4press.com/gd-bbpress-toolbox/ and few more bbPress plugins you can find on my website.

Regards,
Milan

The breadcrumb in bbpress is great to let us see where we are in the forum, but when I want to go back to the main page to see all forums, I click on the word ‘Forums’ in the breadcrumb… but it doesn’t take me back to that page. Instead, it just seem to refresh the page I am on. Any advise and help to get that working?

Hi support team,

meanwhile the problem could be solved by using the information from this thread

bbpress search is not working when buddypress is activated

I’m only a helper on here, and have nothing to do with development of bbpress, so these are just personal comments.

bbpress’s philosophy has always been to be a light plugin, and allow others to create add-on plugins that have optional functionality.

The main author JJJ is proud that the plugin is so stable that new releases are not needed regularly.

A new version 2.6 will when released contain performance improvements and lots of code improvements under the hood, but the only visible addition is per forum moderation.

Most features asked for are available in add-on plugins.

Are there any particular things you are after?

Hi,

I’m trying to import a phpbb forum (3.0.12) to a new bbpress (2.5.13) installation.

Everything works well, except that I’d like that imported users that exist in the wordpress (4.8) installation are automatically linked to subjects, messages, etc…

As mention in this post, I could delete “imported_…” accounts and choose the existing users. But I have more than 1100 matches. One by one is just terrible…

I tried to modify the “bbpress/includes/admin/convert.php” file but with no success.

Is there any way “automate” this ?
Thank you.

Hi,
after importing an old vanilla forum with the bbpress tool, When I apply some repair jobs, (1 at time) as:

Recalculate last activity in each topic and forum

Recalculate the position of each reply

Count replies in each forum

the replies are deleted from the forum. This happens only in the remote site, in the local site it works fine. Any idea?

thank you

Hi

I know it has been asked, but I think this issue is still on the table for many – are there any insights about the future of bbpress? it has been going quite slowly, while others, like wpforo update more frequently and adding more features

Is there anything the community can do? is the problem funding? donations will help? what should be done?

[Pascal Casier]

@deserthighway, did you try with bbPress 2.6rc3 ? Importers have improved a lot!

[Pascal Casier]

Hi, do you see the topics in the backend ( /wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=topic ) ? Did you run the repairs (one at a time) from Tools>Forums ( /wp-admin/tools.php?page=bbp-repair ) ?

If you have run the repairs and still have issues, please give us some info on previous and new site like WordPress version, bbPress version, etc.

Pascal.

Hi Robin W,

Will it work on latest WordPress and bbPress versions?

[FionaS]

Just thought I’d let you know that I am also having problems with this since upgrading to PHP 7.1. To trouble-shoot I have changed my theme to the default 2017, I have deactivated all other plugins and instead of just a blank page I now get the HTTP ERROR 500; I had also changed line 1851 (a couple of weeks ago) but that didn’t work either so I was just hoping that the bbPress upgrade to v 2.5.13 would fix this but unfortunately not. I got my host to roll back the PHP upgrade and everything started to work again.
I am not a PHP programmer so cannot give you all the details that tweichart has.
Version of WordPress is 4.8 but also had the same problem with the previous version.

Good afternoon BBPress community,

I’m moving an existing site to a new install, and have successfully exported and imported most of the site.

But when I get to BBPress I run into a problem importing the Topics. The built-in WordPress importer says it was successful, BUT no topics show up in the forum or in the dashboard.

Any ideas?

Is BBPress not compatible with WordPress’s built-in Import and Export routines? This would be quite strange as several free plugins I use work fine, so I’m guessing there is a workaround?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Shawn

My users can’t edit forum posts that they’ve posted. When the ‘edit’ link is clicked, users are taken to the text editor, but the text is colored white (and is therefore invisible unless highlighted) and all editing tools are absent, other than ‘Ad media’, which is greyed out.

I can confirm that the timeout option is set appropriately.

My website is https://robotwealth.com and I running WordPress v4.8 and bbPress v2.5.13

Example of an attempt to edit a post below:

Any known issues related to this? Anyone else experience something similar?

[Howdy_McGee]

Ok, here’s what I did. If anyone has a better solution post it! What I was ultimately trying to do was combine both the WooCommerce accounts sidebar with the BBPress sidebar. I think the most difficult part / part I’m most unsure about is the bbp user ID which we’ll get to later.

Unloading a Template

I used the bbp_get_template_part filter to find and remove the user-details.php template from loading:

/**
 * Prevent BBPress from loading certain templates
 *
 * @param Array $templates
 *
 * @return Array $templates;
 */
function prefix_bbp_template_removal( $templates ) {

	if( bbp_is_single_user() && is_array( $templates ) ) {
		
		
		if( false !== ( $key = array_search( 'user-details.php', $templates ) ) ) {
			unset( $templates[ $key ] );
		}
		
	}
	
	return $templates;
	
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_template_part', 'prefix_bbp_template_removal');

Loading a Template

Then I used the bbp_locate_template() function to reload the template where I wanted it.

bbp_locate_template( array( 'user-details.php' ), true, false );

User Profile Links

This is where it gets hairy. For whatever reason, when outside the “User Home”, BBPress doesn’t know which user is displaying so none of the sidebar links would link plus “Edit” and “Subscriptions” were missing. To show the last 2 links I needed to have bbp_is_user_home return true, in my case it was whenever the user was on WooCommerce Accounts pages:

/**
 * Modify Home Conditional if viewing WooCommerce Account
 *
 * @return Boolean
 */
function prefix_bbp_user_home( $is_user_home ) {
	
	if( function_exists( 'is_account_page' ) && is_account_page() ) {
		$is_user_home = true;
	}
	
	return $is_user_home;
	
}
add_filter( 'bbp_is_user_home', 'prefix_bbp_user_home' );

Which now shows the two links at the bottom. The final piece was actually getting the links to work correctly. This is what I’m most unsure about as I’m not sure how BBPress defines which user is displayed. I’m assuming there’s some kind of impersonation feature which makes this more difficult or something I’m not sure so I just return the current user ID:

/** 
 * Give BBPress a User ID on Woocommerce Accounts
 *
 * @param Integer $bbp_user_id
 *
 * @return Integer $bbp_user_id
 */
function prefix_bbp_user_id( $bbp_user_id ) {
	
	$user_id = get_current_user_id();
	
	if( function_exists( 'is_account_page' ) && is_account_page() && empty( $bbp_user_id ) ) {
		$bbp_user_id = $user_id;
	}
	
	return $bbp_user_id;
		
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_user_id', 'prefix_bbp_user_id' );

I’d love to get some clarification on the BBPress user ID, why it doesn’t use the current user outside User Home, and what the best way to go about this is.

Thx Robin! – I just found out that GD bbPress Toobox also has this feature, and this works perfectly. So I am happy now it works!

My database prefix is smf_ I got that from the smf database info on the existing forum

I also updated to bbPress 2.6 Release Candidate 3 to try that

still got the warning: WordPress database error: [Unknown character set: ‘utf8mb4’]

[cassihl]

I’ve tried the plugins “Login with Ajax” and “Peters Login Redirect” and neither work when bbpress is activated. I’m also using buddypress. Both plugins work when I deactivate bbpress. Is there something conflicting w/ bbpress and these plugins?

[Webface]

Hello,

WordPress version: 4.8 | bbPress version: 2.5.13

when I try to visit a profile I find myself endig up on the 404 page. It happens with every account but one – mine. Its the oldest account on this installation. But that’s all. I tried it with other Users who got the exact same rights I have and so on but nothing changes.

I tried:
– different themes
– every possible changes in user roles
– deactivating from plugins

But the strange and unique thing in my case is that there is one account that isn’t facing any problems.

I can’t finde a solution. Would be awesome if anybody could help me out with that!

You can test it here: https://netzwerk-schienenlaerm.de/foren/thema/1-phase-der-oeffentlichkeitsbeteiligung-des-eba-im-rahmen-der-eu-umgebungslaermrichtlinie/

Thanks!
