Does this CSS help any?? If it doesn’t add !important to it.

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-the-content-wrapper textarea.bbp-the-content {
    max-width: 100%;
    height: auto;
}

For this ticket, I have the logic on paper what is needed and part of the code already in one of my projects. But need to finish some stuff for the association first.

For the participation part, I’m helping in the forum and will stick to that for now. But any bbPress developer can have a look at my code of course to get inspiration 🙂

But we can have a chat about it, no problem.
Pascal.

Any contributions to that ticket would be much appreciated.

Any other participation in the bbPress project would be much appreciated also.

You can also try something like this too.

#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form textarea, 
#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form select, 
#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form input {
    border: 1px solid #ccc;
}

bbPress currently allow a user to subscribe to topics and forums. I can’t seem to find anyway for a logged-in user to subscribe to an author. Is this something that can be added later?

There’s a plugin called: “Wp Author Subscribe” but it doesn’t render correctly on TwentyFifteen theme.

Thanks.

Hello bbPress Users,

Recently I’ve been wanting to create a bbPress forum on my WordPress website. I was able to successfully install the plugin through WordPress, create a new forum, set Settings, etc …

However, I simply cannot login to the new forum I’ve created (The forum looks awful right now, but I’ll worry about that until AFTER its functional): http://epochgames.co.uk/forums/forum/test/

Try yourself to register (which I’ve had no problem with: I receive the registration email, and have seen my account appear in WordPress Dashboard settings related to Users), but then try logging in … when I try logging in, I’m taken back to the same page, with the same login box, and unable to post. And yes, there is a thread there, but I was only able to post it after checking “Allowing guests to post” in Settings, which I’ve since disabled.

I even downloaded Peter’s Login Redirect plugin, and tested my forum account to redirect to a different page on the domain after login … and it does redirect, but I’m still not logged in! Really weird, right?

Also I’ve noticed that when trying to login to WordPress via the wp-login.php page redirects me to the main page, instead of the Dashboard. Thankfully, I am logged into it and can access the Dashboard, just need to use the Dashboard URL. When I disable the bbPress plugin, the WordPress login properly redirects to the DashBoard.

Any ideas what could be wrong? I am definitely a WordPress Newbie, so it could be something simple, but I’ve not found a topic in this problem with this same problem, I’ve skimmed through the FAQ and found nothing about this … any help would be great.

Hi,
Just so you don’t feel lonely, it seems similar to https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/you-must-be-logged-in-to-reply-to-this-topic/ that I’m trying to understand …

You are not on CloudFare, are you ?

Hola Sole29,

I must admit I don’t know Private Content, but from what I can read on their website, they have a ‘wordpress user system sync’. This should sync the users to wordpress.
Once they are wordpress users, you can grant them rights for bbPress.
That would be my way to go…

I would propose to check with Private Content, because I fear it has to come from that side.

Pascal.

[mica123]

I would like to add that I have just now set up bbpress quickly on another live site hosted by another host to see how it would behave and there were no problems.
So it looks that the fault is on the server side? If so, how can I persuade the webhost to deal with it in more detail? All they said was that it looks that there is no caching on the server we use.

Wordpress: 4.3

Hi bbPress!
I have a site with two registration types.
One for instructors user ( by wordpress registration ) the other for Student users (Private content registration – plugin).

I would like a forum where only registered user can partecipate.

There is a problema: The Private Content plugin has a registration that is completely different to the WP login system.

When I login with studente user I can’t reply or create forums.

The students users haven’t capabilities…

what do you recommend ?

Hi
I’m trying to convert a large PHPBB forum to bbpress using the built-in importer. It fails and I’ve been investigating why and looking for a solution. I keep coming up against “it will be fixed in 2.6” but I can’t see any eta for the next version being rolled out. Any update available?

[Thibaut]

Hello there.

I want to use conditionnal tags in order to display some details. The main page (frontpage) of the forum uses a WordPress page but doesn’t keep the content nor the details (SEO details such as meta description).

I want to add some details (content and meta values). I want to make some conditionnal tags and I need to know how I can do.

I checked this forum and Google to know if I can use, with an if, is_bbpress or is_frontpage, but no answers solved my problem.

How can I force anything to be displayed where I want in the main page of the forum? Thanks for the help.

Regards,

Thibaut.

Hi @devyncjohnson,

I see nofollow adding for bbpress on the following places:
– line 344 of wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/core/functions.php
– line 1703 of wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/replies/template.php

Also check:
– line 298 of wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/formatting.php

Maybe you will find what you look for.
Pascal.

[DevynCJohnson]

@Robkk , not necessarily. The “fix” is not 100% perfect because it removes “nofollow”s that I intend to keep for external domains/links. Also, if I were to write an article about nofollow, then any code examples I give will lose

rel="nofollow"

The fix I provided is a poor fix. True, it solves my problem at the cost of a much lesser evil (in my opinion). I still hope that someone can provide a real solution or explain where the nofollow is coming from. Until then, at least I have a fix which is better than no fix.

Considering that I commented out those lines in the bbPress plugin, one would think that that would fix everything.

I just wanted to shed some light regarding this issue…

1. Contact Robin. He will set you strait.

@robin-w

https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/robin-w/

2. Discovered that our local host had set a limit on the volume of email sends. We were at 200 emails per hour. Or web host company increased it to 600 emails per hour. Email notifications started to flow. However this was a temporary solution. He recommended to look at a replay server solution such as https://sendgrid.com/. We signed up for a pro plan and we are now back at 100%. All users are receiving the email notifications.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

[Robkk]

Are you talking about running the purge previous import tool having an issue or really in the reset forums area.

It is best to run the purge previous import after importing a forum and failing.

Use this if an import failed and you want to remove that incomplete data.

IF the reset forums tool does not do it, I guess you can try some SQL code in phpMyAdmin.

You can try to see if @netwebs commment can help you

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/post-import-cleanup-help-needed/#post-133482

Also if you regularly backup your site, you can just revert to a previous backup before you did the import. You should make regular backups if you are not doing so already too.

[Pascal Casier]

First of all, a good database/site backup is always a starting point of course.
Then I suppose you followed the steps for the data cleanup here: https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/installing-bbpress/deleting-bbpress/ ?

Is your WordPress still working fine since the cleanup that ‘failed’ ?

Pascal.

Hi Barbara,

First principle: test before going live !

I have my own procedure on cleaning bbPress in case of failure, but let me check if there is an official one. @Robkk any ideas ?

Pascal.

[barbarabax]

Hello Pascal, i didn’t test locally so is live environment. BBpress 2.5.8 and wordpress 4.3.1
We are talking about 2079 discussion with 17.000 replies
Thanks

[Pascal Casier]

Hi Barbara,

Is this a life system ? Did it work correctly in your test environment ?
What version of bbPress and WordPress are you using ?
How many lines are you talking about ?

Pascal.

[Loc Pham]

With a combination of two methods, I was able to get the number of topics per tag. These methods query the taxonomies of bbPress’ topic-tag:

$tagList = get_the_terms($post->ID, bbp_get_topic_tag_tax_id());

The output of $tagList is as follow and ‘count’ is what i’m interested in:

{
term_id: 24
name: “Presidential”
slug: “presidential”
term_group: 0
term_taxonomy_id: 24
taxonomy: “topic-tag”
description: “”
parent: 0
count: 3
object_id: 155
filter: “raw”
}

Hope this helps others.

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,

If it can help, check shortcodes. The 2nd one could be your starting point:
[bbp-topic-tags] – Display a tag cloud of all topic tags.
[bbp-single-tag id=$tag_id] – Display a list of all topics associated with a specific tag. eg. [bbp-single-tag id=64]

See https://codex.bbpress.org/features/shortcodes/

Hi Pascal buongiorno to you 😉

Actually the customer (association) wants this template and the first choice is to keep this one. I see what you say, it looks like both the heading and the div are doubled with their padding etc… so here we have the cut on the right…

I installed BBPRESS with the plugin and set up with his setting page (but there is no structure customization – the set up is just about label names).

I have several plugin intalled but nothing concerning BBPRESS (I saw many add ons but did not use any of them)… I am quite sure it is all about the template 🙁 but maybe somebody here experienced the same issue and have a solution.

Thank you so much

[Pascal Casier]

Buongiorno Rendall,

I quickly had a check in the sourcecode of the page and it seems the RT Theme is doubling the information. I also saw that your forum is cut on the right side of the screen.
Any possibility to switch to a more standard theme to make sure the theme is not to blame ?

How did you setup the forum ? Using a shortcut ? Any extra plugins concerning bbPress installed ?

A presto,
Pascal.
