I am really lost on this also, I need HELP and optimizepress support was completely useless, odd that they have user roles functionality already built in for bbpress.

In the screenshots (members area protected forum, sorry)
The first screen, everything is great until you click on the topic Welcome, then it picks a completely different template and it has almost driven me to tears for the last 5 hours

ANYONE, tell me what to do and I can do it. (usually lol)

Hello,
I would like to create a sub menu that displays all the admin links in it. You can find more details over here at GitHub.
https://github.com/tech55541/BBPress-Options-Drop-Down/issues/1

Anyone have any suggestions for me?
Thanks.

Well I have 4.4.1 installed and BBPress and cannot post new topic because I have to have Plain links instead of date and name links…. so I either can’t post topics or see my front page!
ANY SUGGESTIONS ANYONE?
It’s driving me mad……Help!
What’s the point of a forum if you can’t post….?

How do i remove “Create New Topic” as it shows as default at the bottom of my forum i would like to remove this.
I want to disable “Create New Topic” in for all logon users
I want to control the topics myself and only allow particpants to reply to topics that are in the forum. I have the lastest version of WP and BBpress.

When BBPress is turned off, the error stops. When it is turned back on, the error starts again.

Also, the BBPress rewrite rules, especially the root rewrite stub, are the only place in the entire code base that I can find the rewrite rule RegEx fragment.

I am having the same problem as @aaronos.

The bbPress page with the shortcode has the URL /forums, with the page title of “Forum”
The forum root slug is set to “forum” in the forum settings
The single forum slugs is set to “forums”
The yoast SEO breadcrumb I am using shows home>forum on the forum index page (/forums)
When I click into a topic the URL changes to /forum/forums/[FORUM TITLE]
On the /forum/forums URLS the Yoast breadcrumb changes to “/forums” but it actually links to “/forum”

NOTE: /forum is a page that does not technically exist (i.e. I did not create a page with this URL) yet some random topics show up on this page.

I have tried every iteration of changing the UTL of the index page, the page name, and the two settings in bbPress with no success.

I have to set the forum index URL to /forums for my forum index page to look properly, but essentially whenever I navigate to any post or topic the breadcrumb breaks.

Thanks for any guidance and advice.

I love how this forum works – I’m sure I’m not the first to ask so apologies – please can someone point me to any simple steps to make my install of bbpress have the forum categories on the left as a menu, offer email notifications, allow tags etc?

Thank you 🙂

Hiya!

Please can someone recommend a plugin/s that:

1) allow users to upload images to bbpress?
2) preferably creates some form of simple gallery or allows multiple uploads per post
3) takes one of the uploaded images and automatically adds them to the Buddypress feed and ideally, adds one image in the Forum view as well, like an image preview?

Thanks 🙂

Jack

I am trying to remove the author’s real name and only display the @ username.

With the code I found here, I could add the username below the name. But how can I remove the real name and only display the @ username?

Hi,
I must be missing something, but why do you think this is bbPress related ?

I have tried my huge Xenforo data to convert data using BBPress import tool, my script is running since last 2 days, and I have imported below data using BBPress import tool.

Users: 94,600 out of 1,59,679
Forums: 0 out of 41
Topic: 83867 out of 83,813
Replies: 31,279 out of 62,65,110

Now, I am facing below issue to import the data using BBPress tools.

1) Sometimes scripts are automatically stopped and script not start automatically.

2) Currently, lots of data is still pending to import in BBPress but the script is not running and in tools bottom section I can see only “Starting Conversion” and loader.

3) I have noticed in the tool having the duplication issue you can see above in Xenforo only 83,813 topics but BBPress tool imported 83,867 records. So 54 records are duplicates. so this issue resolved using BBPress repair forum tabs?

4) BBPress import tool taking random data from the Xenforo database. I have noticed when I have started the script first the users come from the Xenforo. But unfortunately, the users are skipped and the tool has started to import the topic. So, I am a bit confused here BBpress import tool can complete import all the users, topic, forums, and replies successfully? you can see above my total Xenforo user is 1,59,679 and BBPress tool has imported only 94,600. and the now script has started to import replies.

Can you please suggest here what is the best solutions to import all the data properly?

[Manuel Fritsch]

@Johnnieasear: To me, MS is the future of WP. Why have one site, if I can have at least one more for testing purposes? That was what I thought about before setting up my network. Of course, that means mostly styling tests, since plugins are integrated with the network and some plugins can only be (de-)activated on network level, so testing is limited. But still.

Do you refer to this Guide? “Extensive” would too far-fetched a word for that, in my opinion. It’s more of a brief overview. Useful, of course. 🙂

I am trying to debug an intermittent 404 issue that has been traced to BBPress. I’ve read several other reports about intermittent 404s and BBPress, but none of them are quite applicable to my situation, so I’m creating a new support topic.

The main page of my website will intermittently load with a 404.The intermittent access issue appears to last between 10 seconds and 3 minutes at a time. When this happens, it’s down for everyone trying to access the site (confirmed while on the phone with hosting service tech support). Other pages on the site appear to load correctly during this time window. Hitting refresh will eventually successfully reload the page correctly.

I am using Query Monitor to examine the rewrite rules. Here are the results when the page is loading incorrectly:

Request	account-2/conscious-business-design-dashboard
Matched Rule	[^/]+/([^/]+)/?$
Matched Query	attachment=conscious-business-design-dashboard
Query String	attachment=conscious-business-design-dashboard
Query Vars	attachment	conscious-business-design-dashboard
comments_per_page	50
name	conscious-business-design-dashboard
order	DESC
posts_per_page	10
update_post_meta_cache	1
update_post_term_cache	1

Here are the results when the page is loading correctly:

Request	account-2/conscious-business-design-dashboard
Matched Rule	(.?.+?)(?:/([0-9]+))?/?$
Matched Query	pagename=account-2%2Fconscious-business-design-dashboard
&page=
Query String	pagename=account-2%2Fconscious-business-design-dashboard
Query Vars	comments_per_page	50
name	conscious-business-design-dashboard
order	DESC
pagename	conscious-business-design-dashboard
posts_per_page	10
update_post_meta_cache	1
update_post_term_cache	1
Queried Object	
Single Page: #225 (WP_Post)

Here is the most relevant query that is being run during the 404:

	SELECT wp_posts.*
FROM wp_posts 
WHERE 1=1 
AND wp_posts.post_name = 'conscious-business-design-dashboard'
AND wp_posts.post_type = 'attachment' 
ORDER BY wp_posts.post_date DESC 

Here is the query run when the page successfully loads:

SELECT wp_posts.*
FROM wp_posts 
WHERE 1=1 
AND (wp_posts.ID = '225')
AND wp_posts.post_type = 'page' 
ORDER BY wp_posts.post_date DESC 

When I look at the BBPress code, I can identify the rewrite rules here:

	// Rewrite rule matches used repeatedly below
		$root_rule    = '/([^/]+)/?$';
		$feed_rule    = '/([^/]+)/' . $feed_slug  . '/?$';
		$edit_rule    = '/([^/]+)/' . $edit_slug  . '/?$';
		$paged_rule   = '/([^/]+)/' . $paged_slug . '/?([0-9]{1,})/?$';

However, all slugs are correctly set in the database, and I can’t figure out how they might be getting corrupted.

Any suggestions for further troubleshooting?

[Andrew Tibbetts]

I am trying to figure out why bbPress (inside Buddypress) isn’t enqueueing topic.js on topic pages so that favoriting and subscribing buttons ajax instead of refresh (which they currently do).

In enqueue_scripts(), bbp_is_single_topic() is being checked before allowing the js files to be enqueued.

In the bbp_is_single_topic() function declaration, is_singular( bbp_get_topic_post_type() ) || bbp_is_query_name( 'bbp_single_topic' ) must be satisfied to return true.

Issue: is_singular( bbp_get_topic_post_type() ) returns false (also is_singluar('topic') and just is_singluar() — also, no matter where I go in bbpress, is_singluar() returns false).
Tangential: echoing bbp_get_query_name() returns nothing.

Any ideas?

NB: This was tested on fresh Twenty Twelve with all non-essential plugins disabled and bp-custom.php emptied.

WP: 4.4.1
BP: 2.4.3
BBP: 2.5.8

Hi,
I you use bbPress on WordPress (so no BuddyPress), then any WordPress plugin would do. Users are managed by WordPress.
Pascal.

[Manuel Fritsch]

Uhh, that is a tricky one. We have so much parts that work together, not least the firewall and security plugins. I cannot run the website and test bbpress behaviour for hours or days without any of them. Also, I can’t imagine how any of them could interfere with bbpress. It usually isn’t about plugin conflicts, if such tiny details get wrong. Come to think of it, it never really is about plugin conflicts in my experience, whenever something is wrong on the website.

Do you see any other way to test this?

[Pascal Casier]

Hi Bryan,
‘Registering’ would be a WordPress issue (if you just use bbPress) or a BuddyPress issue.
If you want a response, you might have more luck on those forums.
Pascal.

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,
If you did not rerun the script to recalculate, then for every forum where a topic arrives (or probably also a reply to a topic), the freshness should become correct.
If it disappear, and you did not rerun the repair tool, it might be another plugin or your theme that is doing things in the background.
Any possibility to remove plugins that could have an influence on bbPress and switch to a standard theme ?

Pascal.

[childofnewlight]

My gaming clan recently made the switch to bbPress (i.e., this morning.) It’s been a fairly easy migration. However, I have one issue that I need to resolve: how we accept member applications.

When we were in bbPress we had members copy and paste the application into a new topic form. When submitted, the comment would be “held in moderation” so that an officer could then manually move it to a private/hidden officers forum to deliberate on whether to accept it or not.

Now that we’ve migrated to bbPress that option isn’t so readily available. We could have people post to a forum and move them, but we prefer to keep member applications confidential (instead of sitting in a forum for anyone else to see until someone has a chance to move it.)

So, what I’m looking for, and wondering if anyone has already done this…

1. A way to create a custom topic form pre-filled with information. I don’t see a need to have a bunch of individual fields… just a topic form with existing content.
2. The ability for members who can’t see a forum to post to a specific forum (via this form.)
3. or alternatively, a way for posts to be held in moderation until an officer/moderator can move it to a private forum for consideration.

Thank you

[Stephen Edgar]

There are no themes or plugins that I know of that support _bbp_old_user_id, bbPress offers that and exposes it for developers to use as they will.

I pretty much cannot see any use case where displaying the old vBulletin user ID would be required, it really would only be needed to map previous vBulletin extensions and plugins to bbPress after migration.

Hi,
we are just discussing this in Slack. I only translated dev, but not stable. And honestly, I see no point in manually copying every new and changed string from dev to stable, as was suggested there. This could take hours again, only to be obsolete soon.

So, when is bbpress 2.6 due? Is this correct, that then the dev translations become the new stable?
Manuel

[Manuel Fritsch]

Hi,

in the Codex, it says that the automatic loading of locales should begin when they are at 100%. However, the German locale has not been updated in my installation since three days, that is the current date of the files in my webspace. Even though I approved strings in Glotpress every day since then.

Do you know if there is some “push” mechanism? Because WP-Members always gets updated at night (UTC) after I edited some strings. Or maybe bbpress needs to pull translations, but it does not do so, sufficiently?
