I’m getting dozens of error emails per day since installing bbpress. I think it has to do with the notification system.

They all say, “There was a temporary problem delivering your message to noreply@academy.rebootedbody.com. Gmail will retry for 44 more hours. You’ll be notified if the delivery fails permanently.”

I can’t figure out why the system is trying to send emails to noreply@academy.rebootedbody.com (academy.rebootedbody.com is our site). But why are notifications being sent to “noreply?”

Any ideas?

Noticed when migrating from 2.5.12 to 2.6 beta 2 (and also in RC1 and RC3), that my custom CSS file in mytheme/css/bbpress.css is no longer being detected.

the actual hook is quite easy, there are numerous do-action calls within

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

The real issue is getting someone to code the fields, store them in the database, consider the ability for mods etc. to alter them or delete them, and then decide what you want to do with those fields – eg where to display them etc. etc.

have a play with this

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-the-content-wrapper {
    width: 200px;
}

Both private and public part in one forum

bbpress is not designed for backend use by ordinary users – the backend is really for administration, so participants don’t get this area.

New topics are shown below the forum list, or by creating a page and using one of the shortcodes

[bbp-topic-form] – Display the ‘New Topic’ form where you can choose from a drop down menu the forum that this topic is to be associated with.
[bbp-topic-form forum_id=$forum_id] – Display the ‘New Topic Form’ for a specific forum ID.

or by adding a button, such as in the style pack plugin

bbp style pack

Hi Robin,

well I did it twice. The first thread helping request was deleted from them directly after submission, as they may thought it is a bbpress support issue. The second thread “bbpress search is not working when buddypress is activated” is still waiting to be answered.

I think if you may have a direct contact to buddypress, it would be helpful to point them to the direction for helping to solve this issue too.

Looking forward to your feedback.

BR, Alex

By reading again my previous post, I realized that it may generate confusion when I stated that Participants can not see “New Topics” voice.
The Participants can’t see either the Forum menu and either the Topics (Discussioni) menu

[Renato Gelforte]

I will be happy to solve the back end issue right now.
Anyway the front-end level, at the moment is even worse, keymaster and moderators either, don’t see any way to insert new topics from the forum page.
But, as I stated before, I would be very glad to solve the matter at the back-end level, at first.
Here see from the top bar of the back-end and from Forum Page:

And here see from the dashboard menu:

And here a secial whish:

[Robin W]

mu current understanding is that wp is not in tapatalk, and since bbpress relies on wp, I’d suggest it is not.

[UserCentrix]

No response in nearly 5 days is leaving me rather concerned to use bbPress. Is this the ussual support response-time?

Anyway, I figured out a workaround using a plugin called PHP Code Widget.

The plugin I am using is: https://wordpress.org/plugins/php-code-widget/

An example of one of the codes I am using is:

<?php
$forum_id = get_the_ID();
$forum_add_topic='[bbp-single-topic id ="'.$forum_id.'"]';
echo do_shortcode($forum_add_topic);
?>

Hi All

Just wanted to check if someone could give me an update on the Tapatalk plugin?

I have a WP+bbPress site and had planned to use the current Tapatalk plugin v1.4 for WP and Forums (whatever that means). But it doesn’t seam that easy.

1. There is an existing Tapatalk Plugin (v1.4) that could be installed in WP.
2. Plugin Support forum + google give me the impression that very few are using it.
3. Most search results go back to 2015 and earlier…referring to one WP Plugin plus one bbPress plugin from Tapatalk.
4. I have not managed to connect to the plugin from the Tapatalk Console.
5. Tapatalk support say that WP is not supported at the moment. Unclear why the plugin is still available and if it should work at all.

So, it would be very much appreciated if someone could share a little bit of light on this.

Best

Keymasters and Moderators can do it but for partecipants ther is no way to insert a new topic.
I’ve tryed all ways: changing themes, disactivating plugins, but the problem still not solved.
I’m using WordPress 4.8 with theme RepublicPro, BuddyPress 2.8.2, bbPress 2.5.12
The site is inpressioni.it
Any help will be appreciated.

Hi,

I am trying out bbpress and just created a forum. After creating a couple of categories and forums within them; I noticed that the font for the forum list seems a bit small. How can I adjust the size of the font?

Below is a link with a screenshot, I wish to change the size of the “News & Announcements” part.

Thanks in advance,

I have a membership site which I am using bb press and BuddyPress

I am using the kleo theme
WordPress version 4.8

I have had an issue with replying to posts in from the forum on my dashboard

I have a section on my dashboard where I pull replies and new topics from the forum using the kleo posts.
I can view the posts and click into and read but I cannot reply from there and I need to go into the post in the forum and reply there

Does anyone have a fix

Thanks

Sorry for the long winded rambling

[kariellen35]

I would really like to create forums for my website, however, I don’t have this option:

A. Set Up Sitewide Forums only

Install and activate bbPress.
Proceed to bbPress.org Codex to get started in creating your Sitewide Forums.
If you kept the default “forums” slug in Settings > Forums, you can create a new Page via Pages > Add New. Add Title “Forums” and insert the forums index shortcode and/or other bbPress shortcode you’ll find in the bbPress Codex then publish the new page.
Add new “Forums” Page in your custom menu via Appearances > Menu

Can someone please tell me what I am missing?

Thank you so much for your time!!

Take care,
Kari

Hello Robin W,

I was reading this post and I am looking for this feature.
I have a bbpress forum where I would like where we are in a forum each user can only see his topic.
I am using bbpress like a customer support and when a user post a topic in “private” mode, I would like he’s the only one user he can see the topic with another group like moderator or other (defined in Bbpress Private Group).

Could you tell me if it’s possible to do this with your plugin?

Best Regards,

[arn2k17]

My bbpress Api not working. Why..?
it happens to me..?

[Robin W]

knowing nothing about NeonCRM, I would have no idea, and suspect you will struggle to get an answer to this. bbpress uses custom post types, but otherwise is wordpress, so the answer should be the same as it would be for a wordpress post if that helps.

[jelliott2014]

Robin, thanks for the prompt response. I resolved the issue shortly after posting. bbPress is “network-installed”, so the user registration checkbox is located in Network-admin>Settings. I had checked this earlier, but overlooked the setting for some reason.

I sure wish I could find a complete, easy to read instruction manual to avoid rookie errors like this.

[TKServer]

@mapofemergence I really like what you’ve done with your api. It is robust and the documentation is excellent. I’m not sure if my forking of Pascal’s is any good as I’ve never worked on API stuff before, but many years of PHP and WP.

I’ve started a new thread for discussion of my bbPress mobile app here:

I’m building a bbPress iOS and Android app

I’m excited. Check out the first image I posted in that thread!

Hi.
I have an XML file containing messages (title, date, author and body). I’ve considered three methods of importing these messages into bbPress:

1. Into the database. I’ve written a PHP script to automate that but because the messages are in Hebrew then the encoding causes the text to be gibberish. When that problem was solved, topics that were inseted into the wp_posts table didn’t appear in the forum page.

2. Using the custom importing method. The database structure required to import the messages isn’t really understandable, how should my database be organized in order to transition my data from one database into WordPress’?

3. Using POST requests. I managed to parse the POST request the posting form does in order to make requests of my own. This is complicated, however, due to use of session cookies.

Right now the option that seems the best to me is (2). Instead of messing with encoding issues or session cookies, I need to create a second database but the question is: in which way should my data be organized? How are the IDs working? I didn’t really manage to catch all of that using the docs available here.

[Robin W]

However, when BBPress is active, this will not work and will always redirecting to Homepage but if BBPress is activated, the custom code will work perfectly.

Can’t see a difference between the 1st half and the 2nd half of this sentence !!

[imanicogic]

Hello Support,

http://www.imanicogic.com
Wordpress Version:4.7.5
BBPress Version: 2.5.12

This was tried on other themes and our WordPress Developer encouraged us to submit this to you.
==========================
We are trying to redirect Members, Groups, and Activity pages to a custom URL. We are using the following code:

function church_bp_page_template_redirect()
{

if( ! is_user_logged_in() && ! bp_is_activation_page() && ! bp_is_register_page() && (bp_is_current_component(‘members’) bp_is_current_component(‘activity’) bp_is_current_component(‘groups’))) {
wp_redirect( ‘/imani-secured-login/’ );
exit();
}
}

add_action( ‘template_redirect’, ‘church_bp_page_template_redirect’,10 );

However, when BBPress is active, this will not work and will always redirecting to Homepage but if BBPress is activated, the custom code will work perfectly.

Can you please check if there are any conflicts with Buddypress and BBPress in regards to template_redirect?

Thanks!

We were running the stand alone bbPress for a loooong time.

We finally switched over to the plugin version last fall.

I am seeing a TON of 404 errors for URLs such as:

/forum/rss/topic/topic-name

AND

/forum/profile/profilename

I am pretty sure the solution for the /forum/profile/profilename is to create a rewrite that makes them all /users/ instead of /profile/ but I am not sure about the ones containing /rss/

From poking around I am thinking I should do:

/forum/rss/topic/topic-name

TO

/forum/topic/topic-name/feed

Assuming that the /rss/ URLs are ‘old’ stand alone bbPress related URLs.

Anyone have any insight on this?
