Hi all,

I have recently made my website https, since then my bbpress has been playing up. The problem I have is;

Forums can be accessed by admin, but the forums are not. When a subscriber tries to access a forum, it gives “Page not found” message on page tab and “No Results Found” in the page.

Any comment appreciated.

Cheers

Hi robin,

2 areas that will not style with the plugin:

Topic replying styling tab
6. Topic/Reply Text Font
(the actual text in all the content areas – what users have written)

I have set this to black but it stays as white. it is inheriting this p from my theme, but i need it white elsewhere. Anyway to target this only within bbpress?

Also, when replying to a topic, there is no where to style the label above the form, the bit that says “Reply To: (topic name)” I need this to be white. Do you know the css for this bit?

I think after these 2 things it is looking pretty good for me.
Thanks

Hi,

Im having issues displaying breadcrumbs for my forum. Im also using Avada. Its my first time setting up bbpress. Im trying to style it aswell using bbp style pack but it does not seem to work. How did you manage to style your forum?

[Stephen Edgar]

@abdurhman This has been added to bbPress 2.6 and will be released soon.

In bbPress 2.6 you can have forum moderators for single forums, moderators do not have to have access to all the forums on your site

Hi Robin,

I have been trying to persevere with this but i am having problems styling this still. I used the parts from the codex to style the background as below, and that is working nicely.

/*1 Forum Header and Footer*/
/*2 Reply header*/
/*3. Template notice info*/
(also manually changed the background color of the reply form)

Everything past that up to 8 does not take effect. I would like to just have all of the text in the forum as black as it is currently white on white. My theme settings for text are set to black so i am not sure why it does not inherit this.

I have tried manually changing each element on there but nothing takes effect (tried prefixing them all with #bbpress-forums like your snippets too). IF you could spare a moment could you take a look at the page (I’ve changed it to show when not logged in) and advise me on what i am doing wrong. Below are all of the areas of text i need as black which i am just appending with { color:#000000;}

A) On the list of all forums page:

bbp-forum-info
bbp-forum-topic-count
bbp-forum-reply-count
bbp-forum-freshness

B) on any topic page with create a new topic option:

bbp-forum-description
bbp-topic-permalink
bbp-author-name
bbp-topic-freshness

(The following bit of text are just showing as “label” in chrome inspect so not sure how to target them)
Topic Title (Maximum Length: 80):
Notify me of follow-up replies via email
Attachments:
No file chosen

C) within a topic with reply option

bbp-reply-content
bbp-topic-description

(The following bit of text are just showing as “label” in chrome inspect so not sure how to target them)
Topic Title (Maximum Length: 80):
Notify me of follow-up replies via email
Attachments:
No file chosen

2)

I have noticed a seperate issue:

http://clashingbeavers.com/beaver-forums/
If i enter any forum and then navigate back by clicking on the Home > Forums link within bbpress UI it will take me to a diffrerent url

http://clashingbeavers.com/forums/

and this one looks different. How to stop it taking users to this other url?

Sorry this went on a bit and your advice is much appreciated!
Many thanks

[james8181]

Actually, i will just use change the css using this very informative article:

bbPress Styling Crib

I was being lazy not to have done this originally!
cheers!

[Robin W]

are you using the plugin

Ok i think the issue is … to much subcategory …

I hope BBPress will be optimized in the futur

Hello,

When any user posts in any forum the following error messages appear, however the message DOES actually post. Anyone know what is causing this problem? and how to fix it. I am not a programmer so the code does not mean much to me

Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, class ‘BBP_Admin_Replies’ does not have a method ‘update_reply’ in /home/clashing/public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 524

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/clashing/public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php:524) in /home/clashing/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1174

WordPress 4.6.1
bbpress Version 2.5.10
Beaver Builder Child ThemeVersion: 1.0
http://clashingbeavers.com/beaver-forums/ (although the forums are hidden when not logged in)

Thanks for you help

[payges]

Oh ok, thanks for that

If i decide not use the bbpress private groups plugin and keep the forums to private would that keep the forums/user info private?

[payges]

Hi,

Hoping someone can help. I want a private forum which only logged in users can access. I have also installed bbpress private groups to set up groups of users for particular forums.
The forums have been set to private and the groups plugin has allowed me to create groups and manage access to forums based on these groups.

What is concerning however is that google is returning search replies of the url:
http://www.mysite/forums/user/useremailaddress/
I can then access their profile; topics; replies and favorites…

This is a HUGE problem for my users.

How do i go about restricting this as I have obviously incorrectly assumed this would be covered with the steps I have already taken

Many thanks.

[newzealandnz]

He is one for you!

I run 4 forums and I have just reinstalled it on a site that have been previously running BBPress

I have installed and reset the forum to new, when I go to forum that is displaying 2 search forms instead of just the one! and also when you post it display’s

Favorite | Subscribe
Favorite | Subscribe

TWICE AS WELL

I know how to turn the search feature off and when I do both of them disappear however I would only want to display the one what has happened?

Search the Forum…

See demo at http://www.newzealandnz.co.nz/forums/topic/hello-i-am-danny-de-hek/

[davidnator]

Also, for those who are wondering, I fixed the glitch where no topics show up in the forums by deactivating all of my plugins besides bbpress and then reactivating most of them. (I didn’t activate one because i didn’t need it)

[Fuskeduske]

Hi Davidnator,

Is it this bug you’re encountering?

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2414

If so it happens when a post is being moved/trashed or marked as spam and can be solved by posting a new post.

Hi,

I am also having the same issue. Have been sitting here for 4 hours trying to fixed it.

i have tried:
disabling all plugins
change to default wordpress themes and other themes

still does not work.

forum is here:
http://www.joannalwleng.com/singleparentworkingmum/your-voice/

but topic can be foind here:
http://www.joannalwleng.com/singleparentworkingmum/forum/

i am running on multisite but bbpress and buddypress are sitewide forum, no groups and only activated on sub-site.

[Jon Fergus]

Stephen. I did exactly what you just said. Installed wordpress, bbpress, clean fresh installs, no other customizing of any kind, twentysixteen theme, and the reply button refreshes the page and takes the user to the reply-form. Add a twentysixteen child theme with the reply.js file in a js folder and nothing changes.

[Stephen Edgar]

What I mean was to do this step by step, don’t try to do everything at once.

Install WordPress and bbPress and don’t do anything else.

Now is it working?

[alphaelectric]

Hi there, I have run into the exact same error but am unable to solve it.

– WordPress 4.6.1
– bbpress 2.5.10
– Great! Theme 0.14

Every reply to a topic is displayed as a huge bar right under the admin bar. Any idea how I can troubleshoot this?

Help would be really appreciated as I would like to stay with bbpress for the site.

Thanks a bunch,
Sebastian

PS: There are no sticky notes configured

[Jon Fergus]

Created a second subdomain, right from scratch, added wordpress, added bbpress, added a child theme, uploaded the reply.js file to a js folder at the root of the child theme. Did no other customizations whatsoever. Same functionality as before.

[Jon Fergus]

Hi Stephen. That’s what I did. On my staging site, I started with wordpress, added bbpress, setup a child theme linked to twentysixteen with no customizations, added the reply.js file, and it didn’t work.
I know without logging in you can’t see the reply functionality, but this is my staging subdomain. You can see it’s just a completely base wordpress install with bbpress and nothing else added. And the reply.js file makes no difference in functionality. http://staging.universaltheosophy.com/forums/topic/test-topic/

[Stephen Edgar]

Yes

(bbPress uses WordPress users for account/password management)

[davidnator]

Hello, I have noticed a glitch on my forum index. Basically, the freshness for my forums “Introductions” and “Homework Help” are wrong. For the Introductions forum, the freshness is from over 1 week ago, which is incorrect. Furthermore, in the Homework Help forum, the freshness weirdly states “No Topics.” Btw, I have already tried going through the repair tool for the forums chronologically, but that didn’t fix the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
David

I am currently running the latest stable version of bbpress, and my website is at purposeshare.com/forums

[Stephen Edgar]

Maybe try going back a step or two further…

Start with WordPress, add bbPress, does it work?

From there then incrementally add your customisations.

[storyminded]

Hi there,

We’re having quite a few issues with bbPress we’re hoping someone here can help us solve. We’ve mined the forums ourselves and tried a number of fixes and plugins to no avail. We’re working with WordPress 4.6.1 and bbPress 2.5.10. Unfortunately I can’t share a link to the forum (it’s available by login only). Any and all thoughts or suggestions are welcome!

The main features we are having trouble with include:

1) getting the subscribe/notifications settings to work (this has been the biggest headache, we have installed the Postmark and AsynCRONous bbPress Subscriptions plugins and neither have helped)
2) having the ability to keep selected posts at the top of the discussion threads (the Sticky pr “pin to top” function)
3) Allowing formatting on the images that are posted in the forum
4) Sending private messages through the forum
5) Having a search function within the forum

Can anyone suggest some good resources for us to figure out how to best install these features?

Thanks so much! I really appreciate your help.

Best,
Trish

Is it possible to install bbPress on a separate WordPress either in sub-domain or sub-directory of the main domain provided that both sites can be accessible with a single login?
