Alright I was asking if there could be sending bbPress subscriptions issues and hopefully I could help with that, but only if you already set up sending mail on localhost.

There isn’t much I can help on sending emails through WAMP as the last time I tried a few years back it was a pain to do so and fix some issues I was facing. See if this can help you though.

Ok. I found the problem: Buddypress.

The functionality of reply.js works for bbpress, but does not work if the topic is in a forum that is within a Buddypress group.

Just tested on your site, as well as my test site. And yes that BuddyPress is related to this issue.

May not specifically be BuddyPress and their code. I think there are tickets with bbPress’ BuddyPress extend code that might have issues with some conditionals in a bbPress post that is in a group.

Will look through bbPress trac for some possibly related tickets.

Edit: Found the ticket.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2974

It is pretty easy to workaround this issue as well, since all you have to do is enqueue the javascript with a different conditional or enqueue it sitewide, but doing it sitewide might cause another issue somewhere.

Will do some testing and get back.

Hello,

I just started using bbpress and I’m really confused. On the /forums page, I want the topics under the forum to be displayed right below the forum title. Can anyone please help me with this?? I want something similar to the image inserted. Thanks!

Ok. I found the problem: Buddypress.

The functionality of reply.js works for bbpress, but does not work if the topic is in a forum that is within a Buddypress group.

On my staging site I now have two topics: one within a buddypress group forum and one in a regular bbpress forum. The reply.js functionality works in the topic within the regular forum, but does not work in the topic that’s in the Buddypress group forum.

If you’d like to see the functionality, here are the two topics (sign in credentials are in my previous comment above):

Now………. to find a solution. Any ideas would be much appreciated. I’ve also brought this to the Buddypress support forum. Will link to that below.

Hi guys.

I created my first bbPress forum, which is this -> http://bit.ly/1p1fpjH

I then I cloned that forum to another URL -> http://bit.ly/2evx82i

All right, because I modified the URL WordPress. But when I press to enter any part of the forum, it redirects me to the first forum.

What is the problem? Do I have to change the URL bbPress? Any ideas?

Thank you very much!

[benzouye]

Thanks for the answer.

I think, as a regular user of bbPress forums, that it could be a nice feature to developp … I’ll work on this …

Hi Pascal,
Thanks for your reply.

I installed BuddyPress to reduce plugin use for my need but actually I use just the sitewide BBPress forum. Actually I’m trying to get the whole picture.
FWIW Buddypress doesn’t add new user roles but, for forum, it uses BBPress forum. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

As admin I need to approve user once registered. How I can avoid to assign worpress role “subscriber” and maybe assign BBPress role “blocked” until an admin take action validating the user?

I’m just trying to obtain a classic feature of all forums out there. I tried on Buddypress and WordPress but everybody says that it’s aquestion related to other product. I’m deadlock 🙂

PS
Imagine for a moment that I have only WP + BBPress forum. How I get this behaviour?
Until an admim approve it, a new user cannot browse the site and forum.

Thank you

Hi,
This seems a BuddyPress question. This forum is for bbPress, so you might try to post it on https://buddypress.org/support .
If you think your issue is related to the Notify plugin, then I suggest opening a thread on the support forum of that plugin.
Pascal.

Hi,
Can you try the steps I just posted in https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/installed-bbpress-cant-find-forum-on-wordpress-site/ ?

Hi Robin,

I re-enabled bbpress and the style pack and it seems stable now.

Your 2 code snippets are saved but not taking effect:

.entry-content fieldset legend {
color: #fff !important;
}

#bbpress-forums p.bbp-topic-content, #bbpress-forums p.bbp-reply-content {
color: #1e73be !important;
}

A snipet i made myself to style the background of the reply form is taking effect so this customer code area for css in the beaver theme seems to work for bbpress:

.bbp-form{
background-color:rgba(250, 236, 113, 0.90);
}

Here is a screenshot of what i still need to style. If you could take a look when you get the chance that would be great. http://imgur.com/a/tKRoc

Many thanks

Hi,
You seem to be mixing ‘buddypress’ and ‘bbpress’. This forum is for bbPress questions.
I have the feeling your question is more related to BuddyPress, so maybe try on https://buddypress.org/support ?
Pascal.

[Pascal Casier]

If you have already deac­ti­ved all plugins except bbPress and swit­ched to a default theme and you still do not see ‘Forums’, ‘Topics’ and/or ‘Replies’, then please try this in Settings > Forums (check after every step if you find the options back on your dash­board):
– ‘Set­tings > Forums’ : (de)acti­vate ‘Ano­ny­mous post­ing’, save, (de)acti­vate it again to get back to your origi­nal setting, save
– ‘Set­tings > Forums’ : (de)acti­vate ‘Auto role’, save, (de)acti­vate it again to get back to your origi­nal setting, save
– Deac­ti­vate the bbPress plugin, then reac­tive the bbPress plugin
– ‘Tools > Forums > Repair Forums’ : Remap exis­ting users to default forum roles, click ‘Repair Items’ (WARNING: Make sure to have multiple admins in case the keymas­ter role would disap­pear from one account)

Pascal.

Hi all,

I’m a newbie with a site with latest BuddyPress and WP. I have BBPress plugin installed with only sitewide forums and I need admin approval for new users. I saw there are several plugins but it seems that each of them manage just WP or BBPress.

How I can prevent a user interacting with the whole site until he is approved by an admin?

e.g. I saw the BuddyPress Registration Options plugin blocks the user until approval only for the BP area of the site but the user have the role “subscriber” immediately.

Thank you in advance

Thank you in advance

Just changed my site to a twenty sixteen child theme, still see no problem.

Yeah, that’s what I want. But I’m completely lost now. No idea why this doesn’t work for me.

Are you sure there’s nothing else I need to do? Just copy the reply.js file into a folder called js under my child theme? And that’s it? I can’t understand why it wouldn’t work even when I created a brand-new subdomain, and did no other modifications: just installed wordpress, added bbpress, created bare child theme and added reply.js. What else could be interfering with this function!?

Yeah that’s it. I am lost how you are getting issues for this still. There shouldn’t be an issue with this and default themes.

Only issue I have ever come across regarding issues with threaded replies is while using the Divi theme, some custom scripts in the theme has issues with it for some reason.

I also tested a topic without a forum like what you have on your test site for the heck of it, and I still have not run into issues.

Here is my custom twenty sixteen child theme that you can use and test yourself.

Ok, this is very unusual, but after a lot of testing it seems that @mentions do not get linked when there are spaces in front of the @mention in multiples of 2.

The autosuggest feature works fine when typing the post. The @mention links correctly when looking at the users buddypress activity feed, but the end result in the forum post is a plain text @mention IF there is 2, 4, 6, 8, … spaces in from of the @mention.

If someone has a solution to this that would be great, but I would settle for someone pointing me to the function that converts the @mention to linked text after database retrieval.

Wordpress 4.6.1
bbPress: 2.5.10

I tried also simply using twentysixteen theme and adding reply.js to the existing js folder (in case there was some issue with using a child theme) and this didn’t work either.

Hello.

I’ve had the plugin, Yet Another Star Rating installed on my blog for quite a while now. Today I decided to install bbpress. Normally, once bbpress is installed, it creates new options in the dashboard menu (Forums, Subjects…). My problem is, when the “Yet Another Star Rating” plugin is activated, the bbpress menu items disappear from the dashboard menu (Forums, Subjects,…).

Can you give any advice on how to have both plugins installed and working?

Hey!

I’m almost done with my online community. Everything works except one thing. I have a forum (bbpress), but would like a second page on my website with a completely different forum (for another purpose). Is this possible somehow? Can I perhaps install bbpress a second time, and if so, how do I do this? I don’t want the visitors to have to sign up again though! 🙂

Best regards,
Anton Ljungberg

Hello,

I have several Group forums and each of the forums has 5-6 moderators. However when there is a new question in the forums none of the moderator receive notification that there is a new question.

I also installed bbPress Notify plugin v0.2.2. My BuddyPress version is 2.5.10.

Thank you.

ok, I think the first is your theme, but try adding this to the custom css

#bbpress-forums p.bbp-topic-content, #bbpress-forums p.bbp-reply-content {
    color: #1e73be !important;
}

and also add this for the Reply to :

.entry-content fieldset legend {
    color: #fff !important;
    }
