How do I get my bbpress forum to connect to my main page? Help, This has been going on for weeks. John

[wafadul]

by default, Private Forums and topics can be viewed by logged in users. Hidden Forums and topics are only for Admins.

but in my forum, Private Forums and topics can only be seen by admins. when a user enters a private forum, he/she can’t see the topics.

what’s with this behaviour? is this a bug? this is a very basic feature how come it’s not functioning properly?

i have the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress, and have tried it with the default themes.

Hello everyone,

I installed BBPress earlier this week and managed to get some customization etc. But what i’m struggling with is getting the topics to show under the forum on the forum page.

I would like to see the structure of the forums and under the forums the latest topics in this forum. I have searched hours and hours on the internet where some people had succes on this but i couldn’t implement it myself becouse the lack of experience in PHP.

Can someone please help me how i do this?

I have a category setup just for advertisement posts. I want to block that forum category from showing up on the “Latest Posts” page and “Most Popular” etc where real discussion are located.

Is there a way I can keep a category from feeding posts to other pages in BBpress?

Much appreciated.

Hello

My configuration is:

wordpress 4.6.1
bbpress 2.6 alpha

phpbb 3.1.8 with:
146477 messages
3207 topics
860 users

Server configuration:
MySQL(i) 5.6.23-cll-lve
PHP 5.6.27

When i do the migration from phpbb to wordpress, and i have done this several times, some users stay as anonymous, and are not the same users, is random, this after run the repair tolls one by one.

There is another problem with the repair tool “Recalculate the position of each reply”, it gives several errors like “Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/aquaforu/public_html/wp/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 2276” or “Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/aquaforu/public_html/wp/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1832”

But if i run this tool several times at the end it says “Recalculating reply menu order … No reply positions to recalculate!”

Thanks

I’m not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but it seems that a lot of people have been looking for a lightbox plugin that works with bbPress, too. The only one I’ve found that does, is Huge IT Lightbox:

You have to load the bbpress plugin most likely.

Hello

we are at the latest version of WP (4.6.1) with Canvas theme, and BBPress 2.5.10

The forum is here http://www.zen-avec-mon-assmat.com/forums-zen-avec-mon-assmat/

We don’t know why but we have this huge bug now : the answers are no more attached to the initial topic… Actually when you click on the initial topic, you just see the latest answer…

HELP please !

Hi,

I created a new page and added the bbpress forum shortcode but as you can see here http://www.goviajero.com/discussion-board/ the main menu doesn’t show up. Only the top menu is enabled which is bad because its tiny and the blank header doesn’t look good too.

I’ve already searched on the internet but still clueless how to fix this. Is there any easy way to figure this out? This is my last resort. Please help. Thanks!

I’m curious how the query works for a single topic and replies with bbPress? What is the sort field? It seems the replies are sorted by order of which entry is being replied to, not just by date.

Hi there,

I have “bbpress private groups” and “Paid Memberships Pro – bbPress Add On” installed on my WP site and have 4 memberships levels (Modul 1 – Modul 4) and 4 forums and 4 private groups — Modul 1 for group 1 with access to forum 1. I would like to show all forums to all logged in users and show the membership pro message for group forum restriction if applicable.

The problem is: it only works with user role “keymaster” or when I deactivate “bbpress private groups”. Deactivating “bbpress private groups” doesn’t seem to be a problem, except that I would also like to restrict who can post new topics (Admin only.)

Is there a way to achieve both?

Thanks so much!

Kat

PS. WordPress version is 4.6.1 and I have installed multisite

Hi contemplate,

Can you make a skimmed down version of your solution for people who have ONLY bbpress?

[Fuskeduske]

Hi Gameslopedy,

Do you have it enabled in the bbpress settings? Otherwise it might be a theme issue, have you tried enabling one of the default templates, for example: Twenty Fifteen

Hi,

I’m trying to re-do a site.
Now the new site is using the latest version of WordPress (4.6.1) and bbPress also the latest version (2.5.10)
The previous site is using WordPress 4.5 version with the latest version of bbPress.

I exported my old forum, topics and replies and imported those data into the new site.
When I click on the forum, I got this messages, below:
This forum contains 6 topics and 55 replies, and was last updated by xxx 1 month, 2 weeks ago.
Oh bother! No topics were found here!

I also tried to disable all the plugin, switched to default themes and used this little plugin – http://www.rewweb.co.uk/bbpress-wp4-fix/. But it doesn’t work at all.

Is this plugin compatible with the latest version of WordPress?
Does anyone have the same issue? Any solution for this issue?
Can share with me how to solve this issue?

Regards,
CL

I’m having a hard time configuring the thesis templates for forum “USER” pages (all profile pages) and “VIEW” pages (popular/reply).

Would be great if anyone can help.

Hi Milan,

I would look at some SEO plugins, i am not sure exactly which are compatible with bbpress but you can try in here: https://bbpress.org/plugins

Seems like this might have the functionality you’re looking for:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpsso/

Thanks for posting.

But is there some kind of plugin that does offers some fb customization for bbpress? I didn’t find anything similar.

Hi,

Right now, when I copy the URL of a single topic and post it to Facebook as a status, preview looks pretty bad. I only need a title, beggining of the text (let’s say 20 words), and if possible – a logo of the website. Can someone tell me how this can be done?

Thanks

[gerhardjvr]

I have the same issue… Immediately after I try to activate the bbPress pluging, I’m redirected to a page the says “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.”. I have to use the browser’s ‘back’ button to get back to the WordPress dashboard.

When I check in ‘Users’, I notice that I (Administrator) now has a new credential ‘Administrator, Keymaster’ and there is now a new column, called ‘Forum’, where the new role ‘Keymaster’ has also been assigned to me.

However, I do not see the ‘Forum’ item anywhere in the sidebar or top bar, nor in the Settings or Tools items.

What’s up?

[Robin W]

bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

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

[hanifascraps]

In my Website the Bbpress has a bug that I don’t know how to fixe.

– When I topic is close, the “reply to this topic” still apear and is possible to write. And it let you to submitted. But after it submitted does not apear nothing.
So the member will be confuse, to where is his answers.

Is it possible to hide “reply” when the topic is close?

Thank you for you help.
Kind Regards,

Hi there,

I recently found bbpress in hopes to create a forum, but after installing and activating the plugin, there are no changes in the dashboard ( forum button did not appear after activation ).

I also noticed that the 2.5.10 bbpress plugin is not tested with my version of WordPress, which is 4.6.1.

Is there anyway to fix this? I am really looking forward to use this plugin for my forum.

Thanks in advance.
