Hi BBpress,

I’m not sure why, but the Freshness author name is not updating to the newest post. The avatar updates fine.

It’s stuck showing the Forum creators name (in this case, being the Admins User name). What’s strange is that the Frehness name still links to the correct user profile.

This only happens on the Forum Index. It does not happen on the Topics or Replies.

Can you help me please?

I found that I can change them from “includes” file, in users, forums, topics (template.php) files, but how can I modify them all since they have the same name and I can’t copy them in my bbPress folder in my child theme !?

Hi,
Please, how can I show about 5 recent topics in a page without pagination. I basically want to replicate the way Recent Topics currently displays on bbpress.org homepage on my site.
Thanks for your anticipated kind contributions.

Hi, I tried again to post this bug on track, but I got a “you have not ticket privileges”, so I’ll try to report it here since it can be a very general issue.

My blog is set with a permalink structure like %category%/%postname% WITHOUT a trailing slash. But on bbpress file ajax.php on function bbp_get_ajax_url() the url is generated with a trailingslashit( $wp->request ).

WordPress sends back a redirect whene there is a trailing slash and the subscription fails with an alert “undefined”. Removing the trailingslashit(…) everything works fine.

There is a specific reason for that use of trailingslashit()?

Thank you, Kasi.

Hello,

I have 2 inquiries:

1- I would like to know how to change buttons texts (subscribe, favorite, submit) in forums and topics lists?
2- How to change/remove some reply links (Stick , merge ..etc)

How can I do this on my child theme, is it by copying the php files to my child theme? if yes, which files are they? OR I should have a function file created by me to do that ?

Thanks

I’m using the Cafe Pro Genesis child theme and the latest version of bbpress. I would like to add a border to the text boxes on the topic and reply forms but can’t find the bbpress css in Genesis. Anyone know where to find it?

I have gone through the prior threads on this issue and I still can’t change the text in the Oh Bother box.

My site is appletechtalk.com. If you click on the Forums taband look at the bottom of the page, you will see the Oh Bother! text.

I have modified the feedback-no-forums.php file so that the text line reads “Please select a topic”. I thought that would be easier than trying to remove the box completely (which is what I would rather do).

I placed the file into my child theme. First I put it in the root of the bbpress directory and that did not help. I also recreated the directory structure in my child theme:

bbpress/templates/default

and that didn’t help either.

I am new to WordPress and bbPress as well as css and php files so I have a bit of a learning curve but I’m wondering if you have any thoughts on why this isn’t working.

Thanks,

David

Hi, I am new to WordPress and bbPress, I have recreated my blog using WordPress, and i want to have a forum on my blog for my students to participate in discussion. However, I don’t seems to get the member registration for my forum. Any idea whats going on?

[Robin W]

try adding this plugin to your bbpress set-up

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

[dltanner99]

So, this issue was never resolved with bbpress? Here it is a year later, and I am having the exact same problem. Are you still suggesting that we come up with a workaround for the forum/blog highlighting problem? Take a look at my site at the link below:

http://trilogusmediagroupco.ipage.com/edipros01/forums/

I just need to know why such a straightforward problem is still happening.
I am also using the Generate Press theme with bbpress. Was it ever addressed/resolved?

[Robkk]

In the code I posted the menu links should lead to the default WordPress forms.

Login, Register, Lost Password links

Other plugins can add frontend forms like Theme My Login, woocommerce, some other membership plugins.

I am basically saying the bbPress forms are incomplete in functionality, it might be better to use something else like the default WordPress forms.

[Robkk]

Do you have any hidden forums?? Hidden forums are only for Admins and mods, participants might get a 404. There might also be a bug if you are using it with BuddyPress groups for group forums.

You can test to see if it could still be a user capability issue on your site too. Just installing a plugin that modifies the bbPress user role capabilities could mess it up and it could still mess up even if you removed the plugin. Some users say the Members plugin by Justin Tadlock resolves some user role capability issues just by installing it, so you can try that.

Makes sure to test this in a default theme to make sure you do not have multiple issues regarding capability issues and a theme issue.

Make sure to test with your normal Keymaster role and also with a testuser accout with a Participant role.

I looked in the bbPress Settings and the only option available was the option to toggle the search on or off.

I could see it being that way by design, I was just wondering if it was created that way by design.

Thank you for your response!

Hello,

We are a nonprofit organization providing permanent supportive housing for individuals who use to be homeless (and are now productive citizens). We have 39 buildings and we are creating a WordPress site for the tenant community. We want to have a Bulletin Board and Calendar that is exclusive to EACH building.

Can I use bbPress in such a way that when a tenant logs in, he/she will be able to participate on the Bulletin Board that is unique to his/her building?

Is there detailed documentation anywhere that can help me with this? I’d love to read it and have feedback on how to do this.

Thanks very much,
Cyndi

Yes, I am using the bbpress forms. Where would I find the default WordPress forms? Also, by other frontend forms – I am not sure what you mean? It is just difficult for me to understand that by not using the bbpress forms, redirects will show error messages without any code?

[Robkk]

Are you trying to use the bbPress shortcodes in pages for logging in and registering??

These forms are really incomplete in functionality, they don’t redirect back to the login form and show error messages above that form, it just redirects to the default WordPress form to show the error messages. I think using the default WordPress forms or other frontend forms are better for now.

When I’m in a group and turn on forums for the group, this is what happens:

Does anyone know how to fix these errors?

Thanks,

It’s workoutanywhere.net and it’s only when I deactivate bbpress.

I am having issues with the forums, I can’t see the forums. No matter what I set the forum user role too; even moderator. The forums are public and open. My administrator account can see the forums but not the moderator account. I am using buddypress with about 15 other plugins I figured it may be a plugin conflict so I disabled all the plugins except bbpress and buddypress. but I still don’t see the forums. Also on a side note my site has been doing weird stuff. I have all the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress. I was wandering if there is a way to clear the server side cache as this may be the problem not just with the forums not showing up but with the other issues as well

[tvirtual]

I am still having issues with the amember and bbpress integration. Now if the user logins in via aMember, they can see the forums, but they can’t post. They get an error that they need to be logged in (even though they logged in via aMember…assuming bbPress isn’t recognizing them for some reason). They are given the ‘Participant’ role, so I’m not sure why that’s happening.

So I tried having the user log in through the bbPress form, but then they can’t see the forums at all unless they then login to aMember as well (maybe because the forums are protected by aMember).

I’m thoroughly confused and hoping someone can take a look. Thanks.

[Robkk]

Did you ever install any user role and capability editing plugins before?? Some plugins could have an issue with the bbPress capabilities.

[UgoDimma]

Hey @Robkk2.0

Thanks for your response. But am sorry for taking to long to respond. Is just that I was tryen the new ideas you gave me to see which one will work it out. But I regrete to come back without any solution yet.

I deactivated all plugins except bbpress, but it does not resolve it.

I Have no caching plugin on the site as it stands now.

Ideactivated, deleted, re-install, andre-activated bbpress, and yet, no solution.

I switched theme to default twentyfifteen, and the issue just changed, but to no better.

Here is the situation on the default theme.

Logged out users can view the forum root, and every topics, but once logged with participant role, every page will start return to error 404, both the forum root, except the forums that are associated with the buddypress group, which can only be accessed through the group.

But with moderator’s role and admin role, been logged in, he/she can view the forum root and all othe forums, topics and replies the way it surpose to be.

Since installation, I was using Admin role and capability to access my site, untill I created a new user to test run some page do I started noticing all these. So I cannot tell exactly if it worked fine at onset.
