Hi,

Is there a way I can show a topic list from just one forum on a page ?
I already tried the standard widgets – e.g. recent topics – but this one shows topics from all forums. Additionally I used the shortcode [bbp-single-forum id=00] but this shows beside the list also the creation of a new topic – I only would like to have the list.

Thanks
Marcin

Thanks for that idea but I’ve been through all of them, in several variants. I’m going to try to make a duplicate for my current left side bar with bbpress tools used for custom sidebars. If that works nobody will know the difference. My biggest problem is that when I build this site, at it’s permanent domain, I wanted to be able to hand it over in the most simple form possible. The fewer the plugins I have to explain the better.
I thought I had the forum issue nailed with WP Symposium until it wanted $99 before I could even add a file upload or subscribe to forum option.
This is my first time with WordPress and I love it to bits…other than right at this minute 🙂
Thanks again.

Thank you in advance

When you said you got this.

bbpress
Response headers:
cache control: max-age=2592000

I think you just selected something similar to this in your dev tools.

bbpress.css?ver=2.5.8-5815

This is a CSS file, and the cache information you are outputting is just the browser cache information for that CSS file.

Usually you might find this in your htaccess file for code for browser caching, and this exactly for some CSS files.

ExpiresByType text/css A2592000

In the list of names of files being requested, you can try to pick another CSS file like

responsive.css?ver=1.9.7.7

And you should see the caching age be the same thing since it is a CSS file.

Most of the time the browser caching code would be present in your htaccess file wrapped in something like this.

<IfModule mod_expires.c>

But there could also be WordPress plugins that add browser caching like some minify plugins.

You and your dev have to backtrack and find out where and what is causing the browser caching. It is tough for me to find it on my end without a bunch of guessing, but if you want me to try to take a look at it, you can contact me through email here. https://robkkdev.wordpress.com/contact/

Also that custom login script would not cause this type of issue.

Also you can delete this piece of code since you are probably not using it correctly.

wp_enqueue_script( ‘custom-login’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/css/style-login.js’ );

This is a common theme issue related to the theme styling absolute positioning the comment reply link for WordPress comments.

Use this custom css to fix the issue. Add it in your child themes style.css file or anywhere you can add custom css like in a custom css plugin.

#bbpress-forums .reply {
    position: relative;
    top: inherit;
    right: inherit;
    line-height: inherit;
    font-size: inherit;
}

@robkk

I did more network testing on my bad site via the web developer.
All other pages display the following:
Response header:
main site url:
Cache Control: max-age=3600
bbpress:
Cache-control:max-age=2592000

Request headers:
main site url:
Cache-control: max-age=0
bbpress:
Cache-control:max-age=0

After login:

After login:
wp.login:
Cache-control:no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0

Without refreshing the page
bbpress:
Cache-control: max-age=2592000 –

On refreshing the page
bbpress:
max-age=2592000

The information for bbpress does not change at all.

This is different from the results gleaned from my good site as I reported earlier:
bbpress
cache control: max-age=2592000, public, proxy-revalidate, public, proxy-revalidate, must-revalidate
Cache control: max-age=0

After login:
Response header:
Cache control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0

So would this indicate that all is not well on my webhost provider’s server
regarding cache even if they say that it is not enabled?

Hi Guys,
I’ve been sort of getting on with bbpress installation but have hit a wall.
The page designated to host the forums isn’t showing my default WordPress left side bar.
I think I’ve unticked and re-ticked every option on every bit of setting I can find but it still wont show. I’ve even installed Content Aware Sidebars with the idea of inserting one that way but I cant get that to work either.
What the heck am I missing (I’m a WP newbie). WP: 4.3.1 Theme: Jolene
The affected page is here.
Club News & Forums
(the password to these learn-as-I-go pages is ccc but don’t tell anyone.
Cheers in advance,
Eugene.

Hi blacklavaa

If you just use bbPress, you should have normal wordpress users. So on your dashboard, you should find them under ‘Users’.

Hi peoriachuck,

Thanks for solving most of your own issues 🙂

Are you a keymaster when you try to view the trashed topics ?
Who can view the trash is depending on the permissions you have. Check ‘view_trash’ on https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/before-installing/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/

It is a common issue where CSS for WordPress comments reply link has conflicts with actual reply posts in bbPress.

Copy this custom css in your child themes style.css file or in anywhere you can put custom css like in a custom css plugin.

#bbpress-forums .reply {
    font-size: inherit;
    padding: inherit;
    position: relative;
    right: inherit;
    top: inherit;
}

Hi all. I am running WP 4.3.1, bbPress 2.5.8 and a custom theme at http://www.skywayacquisition.com. (I am not sure how to turn off the theme to test this fault with a bundled theme like Twenty Twelve…)

My forum is on a membership access site through Paid Memberships Pro.

In my forum, when doing a search in the forum area, the function recognizes that there are results, and says something like “Viewing 3 results – 1 through 3 (of 3 total)” and then shows me the “author” and “search results” headers and footers, but no content in between.

Can anyone help in a way a relative novice can relate?

If need be, and someone can help me understand, I can create an account to allow visibility to the site so you can see the actual situation.

[peoriachuck]

OK…partially resolved.

There were 4 replies that were causing the problem. The only way that I could view them was to visit the forum, click on my profile (name/photo) in the forum and view created replies for my account. From there I “trashed” the four replies that were not assigned to a topic or forum, and the Internal Server Error went away. That part is resolved, although there seems to be a bug associated with this.

While troubleshooting the above mentioned problem, I tried repairing bbpress via the Tools>Forum screen. I repaired every item in the list….and now the problem I’m having is that none of the forum Participants can see any of the Topics in the forum. Administrators can, Participants cannot. I’m now trying to resolve this. Any ideas would be appreciated! Thank you.

[blacklavaa]

Hi, I would like to know how I can view the email addresses of all the members who register to be a part of my bbpress forum.

[Pascal Casier]

If you always get Internal Server Error, then you might have a conflicting plugin or theme. Try to disable some.

For the count you:
– could use the bbPress repair tools for recalculating
– need to be sure these are not hidden or marked as spam, but counted anyway.

I’m currently developing an iOS app along with a WordPress site with the bbPress plugin.

I would like to allow any user to easily post links with custom schemes in the forum like :

myappname://badebidobudy/fdjlkqsfj

I saw that in bbPress an admin can indeed post a link and its href is not interpreted so it remains :

href=”myappname://badebidobudy/fdjlkqsfj”

and bbPress tells me why :

> Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML content.

But when an anonymous user wants to do this, the custom scheme is removed and the resulting a tag href is :

href=”//badebidobudy/fdjlkqsfj”

So my question is : how can I configure (or tweak) WordPress or bbPress to at least accept my url scheme or even recognize a raw link with a custom scheme ?

Hi all,

Running WP 4.3.1 and BBPress 2.5.8

The issue: Forum replies appear above forum content in this theme (have tested using vanilla 2015 theme and there’s no problem). The partial solution is to play with CSS.

I’ve got a CSS plugin (Simple Custom CSS) and making changes in there, and I’ve managed to get the reply content to appear in almost the right place using:

ul.forums li {position: relative;}

However, this means the content appears above the bb-reply-header DIV.

Any help appreciated 🙂

Thanks

L.

@gperez-tl

Well if you see the error message in a red notice on your bbPress forums, it is definitely bbPress pushing the error.

[gperez-tl]

@casiepa It’s too late for that. But I’ll try to disable each nonce check manually (from the theme)

@robkk This bug is unrelated to “restore trashed topics” and I don’t know how to reproduce it. But I’d close this thread since the nonce functionality is part of WordPress and not bbpress, right? And also the existence of the nonce check is responsibility of the theme, right?

Thanks, both of you.

[lhowill]

I found the answer in this forum post: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/too-many-revision-statements-how-to-remove-all-but-1/

PinkishHue’s css worked for me.

@mica123

You need to start seeing if other parts of your site is being cached and it is not just the bbPress portions, if it the bbPress portions make sure to see if it is just you must be logged in notice or other areas like the user’s profile pages to see if it is related to @gperez-tl’s issue.

You may need to create me a test user account so that I can confirm of the issue you are getting, and to also test other areas the cache issue might be present.

[Robkk]

@gperez-tl

The fix will make it into 2.6 or earlier I bet.

Haven’t tested the latest patch but I can assume that the issue could be resolved.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2734

[Robkk]

@gperez-tl

Post the code you are using for the custom howdy message in the toolbar. I do not think this would cause an issue but just double checking.

Do the same thing with the profile menu items code.

Just know that you said these were bbPress’s issue although the menu system and the WordPress toolbar are both part of WordPress. The registered menu and menu location are your theme. I do not know how bbPress could cause an issue with this.

So, (visiting any author’s profile and) clicking on some of these items will show the author’s data, while clicking in others will retrieve current user profile data or something.

Wait so clicking on anyone’s frontend forum profile could show the current users profile for some reason, or is it just the menu links as you stated.

You did not edit the user profile templates heavily? you said you are receiving issues with users profiles.

IF you haven’t already try to track down what is causing the issues you are getting. Since you have a custom theme see if the issue persists in a default theme like twenty twelve, deactivate all plugins but bbPress.

Troubleshooting

Your profile pages shouldn’t just be magically be cached by bbPress.

You may need to create me a test user account so that I can confirm of the issue you are getting, and to also test other areas the cache issue might be present.

[gperez-tl]

Sorry for the bump. But this is happening still.

Wordpress version 4.3.1
bbpress version 2.5.8

[gperez-tl]

Hi. Yes, I edit a file, add a blank line or something and save. Files in my case are:
user-profile.php
user-replies-created.php
user-subscriptions.php
etc

I don’t know if the names are the conventional names or just the ones my theme set.

Anyway there’s no real need to do this. Reloading with ctrl+F5 usually do the trick.

I don’t have a real solution yet. And I’m not sure if the problem is with bbpress or wordpress. Or with something else. But I know wordpress use to cache stuff. That’s clear when you develop a plugin and things just don’t change (unless you add rules to .haccess).
