After switching site hosting from DReamhost shared servers to Dreampress my bbpress login is not working properly. You can fill out the username and password and after entering it just resets as if you never did anything. No errors.
my site is tyndale.edu
Under Current Students is Student Lounge and that is the main place we need this to work. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Richard
or when using buddypress:
BP Emails for BBP
would be nice if the function of this plugin could be integrated in BBPress.
Hello, I’m not sure if I found a bug or it is a feature. I’m using WordPress website as a forum. I have three private groups where each have access for different forums. Under one category I have four forums – one group has access to three forums and other to the last one. When someone will put a post to one of the forums, person from group which is not permitted to see the post, can see in freshness column, that someone has wrote something (still he is not able to see the post but in fact he can see the action). Two screenshots for picture the issue:

http://screenshot.sh/m9itlEWm5RUbW
On pictures I’m logged into account which don’t have permissions to view the forum, to which post has been added. I’ll be grateful for any hint how to solve this issue.
Wordpress version – 4.7.1
bbPress version – 2.5.12
bbP private group version – 3.2.10

That should be possible, yes.
There are a few ways you could go about this but the easiest is probably to make topic tags available to regular blog posts (that way, both can share the same taxonomy and you probably won’t need to worry about modifying the bbPress UI).
If you really need to, you could go a step further and a) remove ‘regular tags’ from blog posts and b) rename topic tags so they simply read as ‘tags’. This would result in you having one type of tag everywhere.
Bear in mind however that if you already have a bunch of existing topic and regular tags you would need to do some migration work unless you are prepared to lose one set.
Hello,
I would like to know if it would be possible to have WordPress and BBPress using the same tags?
I thank you in advance
Kind regards
4.7/4.7.1 and bbpress 2.5.12 work
If you have these then :
1. what php version are you running?
your host provider can answer this
or you can install
https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-php-version/
If it’s php7 then come back
otherwise
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
Hi @barryhughes-1,
I have just checked your snippet and it just works great 🙂
So for fully public forums, this could be a quick win.
My only worry is that it does not take into account any bbPress ‘protection’ or ‘permission’. As it’s showing all forums, all topics, it’s not taking into account any specific bbPress settings or filters set. Some great plugins like bbP Private Groups is shielding data from being seen by unauthorised people and this should be extended to the API.
So I will try from a different angle. Authentication there will be my biggest nightmare probably 🙂
I have created my GitHub environment and plan to start putting the ideas on the wiki there: https://github.com/ePascalC/bbp-API/wiki
Please add your ideas !
Pascal.
p.s. @reedy, to get Slack up and running to join the #bbPress channel sign up here:
https://chat.wordpress.org
@senatorman The improvements here on bbPress.org were not-insignificant.
We have 25k topics, 100k replies, and many more in spam/trash/drafts/revisions, amounting to around 180k total posts.
It’s not a huge-huge install, but not exactly small either.
@reedy I’m here if you need help. Can also use the #bbpress channel in WordPress’s Slack instance.
> create the ability to have a topic relate to multiple Forums
bbPress currently requires that all topics have some parent forum, but you are not forced to expose this hierarchy in your theme/design if you’d rather not.
Custom taxonomies are the way to go, and there is a goal to eventually migrate the “Forum” post type to be a taxonomy instead, now that individual forums can have their own meta-data.
bbpress uses wordpress structure which works on a hierarchy, so a topic/post has a forum/post parent.
Would take a lot of customisation to make bbpress work differently to that – loads of functions would need total re-write.
Off-hand I can’t see how this would be achieved.
It sounds like you might be using PHP 7?
If indeed that is the case the issue you are having I think is fixed in bbPress 2.6-beta
You can update (and test) the new bbPress https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-2-6-beta-1/
Running –
– WP 4.6.1 with Divi
– BBPress version 2.5.11
My use case –
– Using BBPress to create Topic discussions around content pages. The nature of these pages is that users may want to find a content page from different directions.
– Example: consider two content pages, Apples and Oranges. Some people may be researching vegetarian diets (both may come up), Citrus fruits (only oranges will come up), or fruits from Washington State (only apples will come up).
My hope –
– create the ability to have a topic relate to multiple Forums.
– Using the above example, I would have a forum for vegetarians (both apples and oranges relate to this Forum), another for Citrus Fruits (only oranges relate to this Forum), and a third for Washington State produce (only Apples relate to this Forum).
What is the best way to accomplish this change in BBPress categorization of Topics to ForumS?
Thank you in advance!
Mark
Something like this ought to do the trick:
function bbp_add_recent_activity_view() {
bbp_register_view(
'active',
'Active topics',
array(
'meta_key' => '_bbp_last_active_time',
'meta_type' => 'DATETIME',
'meta_compare' => '>=',
'meta_value' => date_i18n( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime( '-1 day' ) ),
'max_num_pages' => 1,
'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
'show_stickies' => false
)
);
}
add_action( 'bbp_register_views', 'bbp_add_recent_activity_view' );
With this in place you should then be able to access a list of ‘active’ topics at:
example.com/forums/view/active
In terms of where to add this sort of code, there are a few options. One would be to create a new PHP file (starting with a <?php opening tag) at:
wp-content/mu-plugins/bbpress-tweaks.php
This does the background color, I’ll leave you to pick the bones out of it.
`#bbpress-forums input[type=”text”], textarea,
#bbpress-forums input[type=”text”]:focus, textarea:focus,
#bbpress-forums .quicktags-toolbar
{
background-color: red; ?> ;
}`
Hi. I tried to apply css box shadow for input textara. But it was not work. Anyone know what exactly class CSS should to use to add box shadow? Thanks

@johnjamesjacoby Hi John, is it possible to run the update script manually?
I’m adjusting all my templates to the BBPress 2.6 versions but it seems that the update script didn’t run.
For example, i’m missing pagination in topics view, and in a single topic view, i’m also missing pagination and the favorite / subscribe options (the latter is related I guess).
Regards,
Marc
When I search my Forum I get a 502 error: the page request was canceled because it took too long to complete.
At first I thought it was only when you tried to search multiple words. But then it did work when I tried “crash cart” and “cell phone” and it did not work when I tried “annual” or “history”. So it seems very inconsistent.

Hi @barryhughes-1,
Should I start an environment on GitHub for this ? I really really love the idea of the bbPress API. It has been on my radar for a while but lost priority.
I had this link already saved to get some ideas https://github.com/thenbrent/BB-API
Pascal.
Also please note that that ticket bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2685 that is referenced is fixed in version 2.6 of bbPress. So for the next version you will no longer need this.
Pascal.

Hello, I am having great difficulty getting any widgets to appear in my Forums sidebar. I believe now that it relates to the page I have bbPress running on. After initially installing bbPress I later added a new page and added [bbp-forum-index] as directed to do in the documentation. However, when I’ve tried to use the Forums page id to exclude the Forums link from automatically appearing in the footer it did not work. Also I had to use (.bbpress) in my css to style the header of the page as .page-id- was not working.
My issue still occurs when tested using Twenty Seventeen.
i’ve remove my 2.6 aplha and instal 2.6 beta 1 after the fix on an testforum with 120 forums and 500 posts
the install runs fast (few seconds) it looks like there is no converting in the database to convert usermeta to postmeta. There is no big performancechange
i had understand that beta 1 is an good performance update. And makes Bbpress faster for big forums. Am i right?
