Hi,

Thanks for your reply, the short code was used for one “logout” plugin and it was later removed due to compatibility issue with my theme.

Can you please tell me, where I get this “bbPress profile widget ” ?

Await your reply.

Regards,
Ajit

Okay, now I’m very confused. It appears to be the WP Spamshield plug-in–but I have another install with both bbPress and Spamshield and it works fine (which is why I didn’t bother testing it at first).

I’ll check the support page for the plug-in.

For those who have added the code from palmdoc’s instructions here, you’ll also likely need to change user role permissions so that they can upload inline images to all topics. Solution is here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cant-upload-media-in-bbpress/#post-175834

why don’t you have a test site?

So after updates with BBPress and Buddypress my site is currently broken but will have it up and running soon again with a much improved code.

Hi I have deactivated all plugins except the BBpress plugins
still the same problem just comes back with the last item on the blog.

have also changed the theme to twentyfifteen with all plugins disabled except BBpress.

Same problem!!!

[Yossi Aharon]

I recently migrated a phpBB forum to bbPress. I currently use 2.6 alpha version. The participants count of all topic is 0. When I try to run the fixing tool it reset all the topics to 1. Even if there are several participants and it happen also for a new topics on the forum after the migration. I think that it doesn’t count the gusets, the participants who don’t have account on the forum. It should also count the guest participants because for a forum that allow to guests to post topics there is no point to show the count of participants if all topics shows 0.

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

Fresh install of WordPress 4.5.2
Fresh install of bbPress 2.5.9-6017
Only other plugin: WP Spamshield
Theme: Moon
Site: GeekNiche.com
All settings left at default.

As Admin/Keymaster, I am unable to create new topics or reply to topics already posted, when in the forums. I can post a new topic from the dashboard.

The error (when trying to post from the forums) reads:
ERROR: You do not have permission to reply.

To test, I created a new user with the “participant” role. That user can create new topics and reply to topics. It’s only the Keymaster who is forbidden from posting.

This would appear to be a problem. 🙂

Hello,

I implemented a basic BBPress to our secured site. all members are registered and automatically assign them to participants. But after a week when I visited some topics went to trash, spam and closed. I checked bbpress code and I can not find any cron task and I`m not using Akismet at all.

I hope you can help me.

Many Thanks 🙂

When I try to post an image using bbpress, I click the insert image button and this happens.

How can I make it not overlap each other?

[Robkk]

Use the listed function on this page, and use it to get the id of a reply, that is the response to another reply, and then you can use this with other bbPress functions to get a threaded replies information.

[Robin W]

you can achieve this with forum roles eg

https://codex.bbpress.org/custom-capabilities/

if you want it across all forums

or if you just want one of several to be restricted, then I’ve recently added this to my private groups plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

see topic permissions tab

Or how would I go about adding the reference lookup to obtain the user’s bp group(s), the forum tied to that bp group(s), and then display the recent 5-10 topics?

If you are really not that good with code, try to hire a developer to create this for you.

Here is a couple of links that might be helpful though.

I have 3 forums on my site. I have them set to private so a user needs to login to see and post. To explain lets call them A, B and C. Users may have the following access:
A only
B only
A & B
C only
A & C
A & B
A, B and C
Can someone tell me if this is possible with bbPress’ programming or if I need an additional plugin – and what plugin would be suggested.

If anyone can help me on this I would be greatly appreciative. I have been working hours on this and can’t see how to accomplish it.

Thanks
Sue

Lynqs suggestion in the topic you linked to will not work if you just put his code into a text widget, because the text widget does not output PHP just HTML.

I see you just placed the bbPress login form shortcode into a text widget, why not just use the bbPress profile widget which includes a login form and register, lost password, and logout links.

As I state in this post, you may not need to even add an emoticons plugin, older conservatives may not even use it, but they might every now and then use the simple smilies like :) :( >:( :P

1. Robins plugin uses the same file that has been tossed around these forums for the past 2 or so years.

https://github.com/robkk/bbPress-Hierarchical-Forum-and-Category-Layout

4. You should probably just keep them, as they help with moderation on the frontend. There is a link in the description to show all posts including ones that may be pending moderation. The yellow ones just help notify users whats up, so if they cannot post for soem reason and there is no notice, they would not know what the issue is.

Here is a link to the code though.

5. If you are minifying your CSS, then I say do not worry about this feature.

I don’t really think there is a best practice for forum rules/admin content, it is whatever works for you and makes most sense in the end.

bbpress uses the wordpress system of gravatar, so you’ll need to do that

[r083r7]

How do I upload my avatar on this site? On bbPress.org? Went to edit my profile but don’t see an option.

Thank you both for the help. I installed the “Simple Custom CSS” Plugin and fixed both issues by adding the following code there, after removing the code to “get sidebars” in bbpress.php

/* Change Post Font Color to Black */
.post-inner .entry{ color: #000; }

/* Increase Forums to Full-Width of Page - after removing get sidebar code from bbpressphp */
.bbpress .main-inner,
.bbpress .main,
.page-template-full-width .main-inner,
.page-template-full-width .main  {
  background: none !important;
  padding-right: 0 !important;
  padding-left: 0 !important;
}

/* Increase Font Size on various items in bbPress */

These are not BuddyPress notifications, but are in fact bbPress email subscriptions right??

[Robkk]

Yeah you can’t do what you want now using that specific plugin, you can using widget logic, or creating a bbpress specific sidebar for all the widgets you want/not want to display on bbPress pages.

Contact the display widgets plugin author to possibly add this feature to hide/show widgets on bbPress user profiles, and maybe specifically the edit profile page. All they would need is just use these supplied bbPress conditionals.
