[Filip-T]

Hello there!

I’m looking for a feature to approve all topics before they appear on the site.
I can’t provide bbPress version or a link to the site, as i haven’t installed bbPress yet.

I’ve been looking around the forum and the documentation, but i haven’t been able to find anything, except for the following, which is outdated now: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpressmoderation/

So does bbPress, support this feature?

Thanks in advance 🙂

Hi,
As bbPress worked fine until you installed imember360, you could point these issues out to them.

Are you interested in the protection of content and users, or more about the billing ?
I’m a very happy ‘bbp private groups’ user and it fits all my needs. And it fully integrates with bbPress.

Pascal.

Hi, I have issues about infusionsoft’s imember360 and bbPress together. I have installed bbPress and forum worked pretty well until I installed imember360. Forum, Topics and replies suddenly disappeared. and I am not able to view its pages as well. I have not configured or restricted content access with imember360. I’d be really happy if anyone have ideas about this. Thanks alot!

I’ve had a YahooGroup for the past ten years. I’d like to convert it to a new website that I’m developing at https://christiangayschat.com. I’m just getting started with BuddyPress and bbPress and don’t know if what I would like to do is possible, preferably with a nice easy plugin. 😉

With the YahooGroups my members can write back and forth without ever going to the website. They just use the YahooGroups email address for our specific group.

Is this something that could be done with the forums? i.e. Could we use both the forums on the website and direct email for all those who are subscribed to that specific group?

Many thanks!

@martineva, the error was mine, I copied wrong the second part.

The original is:
<p>
<label for=”bbp_stick_topic”> <?php _e( ‘Topic Type:’, ‘bbpress’ ); ?>
</label><br /><?php bbp_form_topic_type_dropdown(); ?>
</p>

And you have to comment all that part, so add (without “) “<!–” before <p> and add (without “) “–>” after the </p>.

The correct final has to be:

<!–<p>
<label for=”bbp_stick_topic”> <?php _e( ‘Topic Type:’, ‘bbpress’ ); ?>
</label><br /><?php bbp_form_topic_type_dropdown(); ?>
</p>–>
This way the dropdown list for stickying will not be showed.

I hope this help!

[manueldo]

Good @martineva, but think that with an update this changes will disappear!
To delete tha “stick” option I modified two files, the form for a new topic and the template for the topics.

1) The form (this depend on your theme, for mine was here): themes/YOUR.THEME/bbpress/form-topic.php, line 130 aprox. I commented the html part where the form show the sticky drop down list <!–<p><label for=”bbp_stick_topic”><?php _e( ‘Topic Type:’, ‘bbpress’ ); ?></label><br />

2) Topic templates: content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/template.php, line 2421 aprox. I commented the php for stick and for merge.
//’stick’ => bbp_get_topic_stick_link( $r ),
//’merge’ => bbp_get_topic_merge_link( $r ),

When you update your theme, 1) will be stop working and you will have to do it again.
When you update bbpress, 2) will be stop working and you will have to do it again.
But for now, this is the only option I found.

I’ve seen a ton of topics regarding not being able to see the forums at all, but nothing quite like my situation. I can see the top level for my forums, and it is listing topics & replies but I can’t get to them. Although I’ve imported the bbpress templates and css to my template directory, I’m unable to get past the top level for my forums at:

STARFLEET Discussion Forums

When I click on a category, topic, reply, I get a blank like this:

http://sfi.org/topic/heres-a-test-topic/

They do work when I switch to the default template, so is there a step I missed with the template? Is there code that needs to be added to the template header? Something else?

Changing Post Dates

I want to change the date because I’ve decided to make forum posts the comments for a post instead of using post comments and I made the most recent post the first forum by accident.

[TKServer]

Following. I’m doing a threaded view outside of bbpress. I’ve got topics and replies all working as well as a modal window for new topics and replies. Just polishing off some of the extra queries. Interested to see what you do.

[antonydennis]

Hello there…

I am trying to implement a view of Buddypress that looks like the Facebook newsfeed – a single page, which lists topics, each one having an add reply form underneath, and then a list of the existing replies. I have made the list of topics and replies, but I’m having trouble putting a working add reply form underneath each topic.

The loop structure I have used is:

$forum_ID_list = //a list of forum IDs
foreach ($forum in $forum_list)
    // WP_Query to get the topic ID list
    foreach ($topic in $topic_ID_list)
        // output topic
        // output new reply form -BUT HOW...?
        WP_Query to get the reply ID list
        foreach ($reply in $reply_list)
            // WP_Query to get the reply details
            // Output the replydetails

So I am not using calls to bbpress() in the loop.

My question is: with this loop structure, how do I implement the output of the new reply form?

I have tried embedding the reply form as follows:

<form id="new-reply-XXX" name="new-post" method="post" action="">
	<fieldset class="bbp-form">		
	<textarea class="bbp-the-content wp-editor-area" rows="3" cols="10" tabindex="101" name="bbp_reply_content" id="bbp_reply_content"></textarea>
	
	<input type="hidden" name="bbp_topic_id"    id="bbp_topic_id"    value="TOPIC_ID" />'
	<input type="hidden" name="bbp_reply_to"    id="bbp_reply_to"    value="0" />';
	<input type="hidden" name="action"          id="bbp_post_action" value="bbp-new-reply" />
	<input type="hidden" name="_wpnonce"        id="_wpnonce"        value="99e426b2cf" />'; // NOT SURE WHAT THIS DOES AND IF I NEED TO CHANGE IT
	<input type="hidden" name="_wp_http_referer"                     value="" /> // CAN THIS JUST BE LEFT BLANK?
	<input type="hidden" id="bbp_redirect_to" name="redirect_to"     value="MY_HOME_PAGE" />
	
	<button type="submit" form="new-reply-XXX" tabindex="104" id="bbp_reply_submit" name="bbp_reply_submit" class="button submit">SEND</button>';

When I use this form, I am redirected to my home page, but the reply is not added to the topic.

So my questions are:

1. Can I do it by looping this way using WP_Query, and if so, can you answer my questions in upper case above about the form so it will add the topic correctly?

2. If I cannot used my WP_Query based loops, what other way can I loop and make the form work?

I’m using bbpress 2.5.8 with Buddypress 2.3.3 and WP 4.0.8

Thanks in anticipation! Antony.

When I edit the forum and look at the Publish box, there’s no date edit option. The box only has a preview changes button.

Wordpress Version 4.3.1

BBPress Version 2.5.8

[manteli]

Using latest versions of WP and bbPress. I’ve been searching and searching, is there anyone who could help me to shorten the freshness to show only year(s) OR week(s) OR day(s) OR minute(s) instead of the whole time stamp?

I found this https://codex.bbpress.org/layout-and-functionality-examples-you-can-use/#10-shorten-freshness-wording but it doesn’t seem to work properly. I don’t know if I’m missing something. I still got “1 hour, 20 minutes” etc. Is the code supposed to do this / is it possible to show only one time variable like this?

50 seconds ago
33 minutes ago
2 hours ago
3 days ago
1 year ago
etc

I would be so happy if someone could help! Thanks!

Oops, to continue…those mystery pages I mentioned from the breadcrumb are usually blank. And they fall at the top level of the breadcrumb nav hierarchy – the first or second item.

When I first installed bbPress I had 2 forum entries in the breadcrumb – Forums/forums/… the first one (I think it was the first menu item) had nothing on it.

Hey everyone,

I started styling up a little support/development forum for my clients to use. It requires a little bit more customization but I have most of the basics down.

Wordpress – Latest
BBPress – Latest
Theme – Salient
Website Forum Page – https://wapp.guru/support/

I’m not using any short codes because this theme actually handles the default BBPress pretty well. I’m just letting the default post types do their thing with Yoast SEO attached. I’ve added a plugin that adds login, log out, and register buttons to the forum itself.

1. How do I set up my site to where people can log in with a WordPress / Gravatar account?

2. The profile page title does not show up and using the Yoast plugin I can’t find any way to target it. Any advice?

View post on imgur.com

3. What’s a good plugin to use for things such as easy navigation for users? I have a few of the widgets in the hamburger menu on the top left. There’s a default login form but nothing regarding registration so I hard coded a link in. There’s a little login form, but no register form. I’ve tried (bbk style pack) but it seems to just place links in the main navigation menu which I don’t really like. It just seems like it’s difficult to navigate around.

Overall I know the forum is open source and requires a good bit of customization. I’m just looking for the simplest way without having to use 50 additional plugins that conflict with one another.

Thanks!

With every iteration, bbPress writes to the _bbp_converter_query option to record the last successful query. You can use that to cross-check what the converter is putting out against what the records are that are being imported.

Usually when this happens, it’s a database encoding issue, and MySQL is getting stuck on a specific character in a specific record.

To confirm if this is the case, you’ll want to go back into phpMyAdmin (or your favorite database management tool) and bisect that range of posts to identify exactly which post in your vBulletin installation that bbPress is getting hung up on.

For example, when I converted bbPress.org from bbPress 1.2 to bbPress 2.0, it got stuck on 8 individual posts that had had encoding issues from 10 years ago when someone changed the encoding from whatever it was to latin1, and because WordPress usually expected to be UTF-8 and we have HyperDB in the middle to route queries around, bbPress’s converter would do exactly what yours is doing.

If it’s database encoding or some other anomaly, isolating what is goofy with exactly which post(s) is the only way to get around it. I’m anxious to hear what you figure out here, and very happy to improve our importer if there’s anything we can do on our end.

Hi,
It’s unfortunately a known issue in current version:
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2685

Hopefully fixed in next upcoming release.

I just tried Asyncronus bbpress Subscriptions but doesnt seem to fix it.
Im also using wp smtp. I think this started happening with the last bbpress update

[martineva]

Hello there !
I’ve been on troubble since a few days, just trying to let my forum users to delete their own topics.

I tried several plugins, on WordPress, but it seems that even if I create a new role and custom it with the “delete topic” option, it won’t be memorized, maybe due to php bbpress capabilities ?? Anyway those plugins seem to create only WordPress roles, not bbpress roles. So even if there is “forum options” set, maybe it’s not the good way to do it properly.

Then I’ve been reading this : https://codex.bbpress.org/custom-capabilities/, and I was able to set a new role, but still, even if the 'delete_topics' => true," is set, the users can’t see anything like a delete button on the front end (same with the “delete replies” option, BTW).

Following this other thread https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-custom-user-role/ I created a separated php file, but once again I could see no effect, worse : I got 404 pages instead of my website pages.

I must say it’s my first forum, and I’m not a good coder, so if anybody could help me to get this solved, it would be very, very nice !

[Pascal Casier]

Great !

We all deserve a good weekend now with coffee … or something stronger 🙂

Enjoy bbPress !
Pascal.

Did you also try to change some php.ini settings as described here ?

Conversion MyBB to bbPress

[Robkk]

The forum feeds are still there, you just have to go to the original forum feed url as stated in this new trac ticket I just created.

That php / bbpress more friendly solution I meant something like:
<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘content’, ‘single-topic-lead’ ); ?> …. related somehow to $topic_id…. but I am really not abble to figure out how to do it this way….Maybe you have some idea…

Peter

[ynteligent]

I found this tricky solution yesterday evening too…

I created new template page where I put complete code from content-single-topic-lead.php and added $topic_id into brackets () almost everywhere- that worked for me…. But I am pretty shure that there is easier and bbpress / php more friendly way how to do this ….If you have any idea just let me know, for the moment I am going to use content-single-topic-lead.php code. I really appreciate your help.

I am going to finish my page within few days, I learned a lot during the process, so I think that I can help other people on this support forum like you do…

Thank you Robkk
