Deactivating and activating these plugins definitely causes issues, such as stripping all the capabilities from all the role types. Crap.

Skimming through the internet reveals people with similar problems, but no clear resolution that I can follow. It seems like these role plugins can write into the database and mess with bbPress settings (at least from my understanding of it).

I need a way of reversing the damage this has done, but without losing my forums if possible. Fortunately, the site is new so the forum is not active, but I would rather not have to build up the structure from scratch.

So iMember360 has a hook that I am trying to attach with to bbPress that I am struggling to do.

I want to set it up so that when a user logins, and they contain certain tags (detected by iMember360), to change bbPress roles.

Below is the hook I am trying to use.

function my_i4w_authenticated_lremote_ogin($wp_user, $arrINFU) {
  //
  // $wp_user is the user object (same as the standard $current_user)
  //
  // $contact is an array with all contact record fields.
  // add your code to perform any desired action, such as sending an email notification
  // or updating contact record to reflect the login that just took place

  $your_code_goes_here = true;

}

add_action('i4w_authenticated_remote_login', 'my_i4w_authenticated_remote_login',10,2);

Here is what I tried to do:

function i4w_authenticated_remote_login_action($user, $contact) {
  global $SESSION;
  IF ($arrTAGS = explode(',', $SESSION['i4wuser']['Groups'])) :
    IF (in_array(38181, $arrTAGS) || in_array(38185, $arrTAGS) || in_array(38193, $arrTAGS)) :
      $bbp = bbpress();
      $bbp->current_user = new WP_User($user->ID);
	  $new_role_forum_role=”bbp_participant”;
	  bbp_set_user_role( $bbp->current_user, $new_role_forum_role );
    ELSEIF (in_array(38177, $arrTAGS) || in_array(38195, $arrTAGS) || in_array(38183, $arrTAGS) || in_array(38187, $arrTAGS) || in_array(38189, $arrTAGS)) :
      $bbp = bbpress();
      $bbp->current_user = new WP_User($user->ID);
	  $new_role_forum_role=”bbp_spectator”;
	  bbp_set_user_role( $bbp->current_user, $new_role_forum_role );
    ENDIF;
  ENDIF;
}
add_action('i4w_authenticated_remote_login', 'i4w_authenticated_remote_login_action', 10, 2);

However, nothing happens. I am not sure what I am missing here, but I suspect it is my lack of understanding with bbPress that is the issue.

We are using bbPress v. 2.5.8, WP v. 4.3.1.
Also using plugins: Ultimate Member, bbp Private Groups, bbp Style Pack

Some users are unable to reply to topics, and I’ve tried everything I could think of. Double checked their roles look, the permissions in the forums and topics. Some have been able to access before and have been able to reply, but now cannot. Others have never been able to and still can’t reply.

Akismet for forums have been disabled. I can’t think of anything else that I can do and would appreciate some tips! TIA.

At websynthesis I am getting a repetitive server error in log. Can you advise any troubleshooting?

Hello, I just installed bbpress on my site, and I am having a weird issue where users have to log in twice.

When I log in from the bbpress login widget, it redirects me to the “answer this math question” wordpress captcha page. After answering the math question, it then redirects me to the main wordpress backend login. After logging in again there, it takes me back to my wordpress front page, rather than the bbpress login page… What is going on here? This will be very confusing to users. How do I make it so once you log in from the bbpress login widget, it takes you to the forum (and so you only have to log in once)?

I´m using the latest bbpress version.
My problem is:
When i’m replayed a topic in bbpress the page start to reload and still reload.
The page dont be update and i need to press f5 to reload the page to see my topic replay.
I don’t have a lot of topics and users.

I dont use cache plugin because the forum have only 3 topics and i fell relpays.

So, how to speed up the bbpress topic or what kind of issue is this?

Hello,

I have the problem with the translation of bbpress to Czech. It seems to be ok on one my site http://nulovagravitace.cz/forums/, but on the other http://www.vlaceni.cz/diskuze/, there are some words which aren’t translated (for example Topics, Posts, Freshness, Search), but some are. For both sites I use the same .mo and .po files and both of them are in folder /wp-content/languages/bbpress/

Do you know how to solve it? And where could be the probem? In the theme?

[Robkk]

bbPress uses the WordPress registration process, they are unified. THe bbPress shortcodes for lost password, registration, and login are there for frontend forms but they are incomplete in functionality, there shouldn’t be a problem with using the default WordPress registration form by default.

You can customize the default the WordPress forms by a plugin, or using some PHP functions too.

[Robkk]

Did the default bbPress roles ever work fine?? Or did it break recently after installing a plugin??

Can you link to this user role and capability plugin you are using??

[regeisle]

Thanks for the quick reply! I think the issue is that even with plain text pasting, there’s still some formatting that’s not getting stripped out.

Following these steps, https://codex.bbpress.org/enable-visual-editor/, I’ve disabled the <text> tab to lock it on visual editing and set it to paste as plain text.

My ideal setup would be to make everything paste in as totally unfortmatted plain text so it’s just like they typed it directly, but then use the visual editor features to let people add links, bold things, etc. It’s not a knowledgeable userbase so I can’t default it to text/code mode, but I also need to get rid of these formatting bugs.

Any suggestions to achieve what I’m after above? This seems like it would be a pretty common setup for basic user editing needs….

Thanks again! Rich

Still having an issue, although it seems to have evolved.

So now using the roles and capability manager, the changes I make stick.

Even so, bbPress roles don’t seem to work. So I made a new WP role I called member, and assigned it participant capabilities. I then changed subscriber (the default) and assigned it spectator capabilities. These roles new allow users to function as I wanted. A hack but it works reliably.

But now, as the WP admin and keymaster, I cannot moderate the forums through the dashboard or inside the forum. Since none of the bbPress roles actually work, I can’t do anything with them. I suppose I will have to make yet another role and call it moderator, and give it all the keymaster capabilities.

But this shouldnt have to be like this. Really lost on why this is broken.

Hello. I appreciate this great plugin.

I have a problem.
Google webmaster says. You have duplicated titles on following pages.
http://honeys-anime.dev/forums/topic/death-parade-wallpaper-you-always-seek-for/
http://honeys-anime.dev/forums/topic/death-parade-wallpaper-you-always-seek-for/?bbp_reply_to=12994&_wpnonce=2f272af7eb

Actually, I want to set “noindex” meta tag in head section in under /?bbp_reply_to=*** all topics.
Please how to do that or please tell me which “bbp_is_***” shows these topics pages.
Thank you.

It is just the WordPress backend menu items for managing forums. topics, and replies right??

what version of bbPress do you have??

Also I do not think IP address should be a cause to this issue.

[Robkk]

@realshortdatacom I split your replies into a separate topic.

Missing menu items

[Robkk]

I split this topic off just so confusion does not start in the other topic.

All plugins deactivated except bbPress?
Try a default theme with the only plugin on your site activated being bbPress?

Also check to see what is your Forum Role in Users > All Users. If it is Participant you may not be able to see the menu items, make sure if you are an Admin that your Forum Role is Keymaster.

[Robkk]

Closing in favor of your other topic. Please do not make duplicate topics.

> Do you have a wp_bb_terms table at all?

No, or at least I didn’t. My database looked the same as yours. I had a wp_bb_messages_meta table that you don’t. I didn’t have wp_bbp_converter_translator table.

Get ready to cringe, because here’s what I did. I know most people like to solve problems through information and insight but I prefer to bat at my keyboard like a monkey until something happens.

I duplicated wp_terms, calling the new table wp_bb_terms. I reran the buddypress->bbpress migration and this time all topics and replies converted. I did a happy dance, captured it all in backupbuddy and haven’t looked back. So far, so good–I haven’t noticed any glitches yet.

Thank you for the assist!!!

[kleypie]

I was wondering if anybody had a solution to this? I’d like my users to have the formatting toolbar for posts but I dont like that when they click “link” it shows “link to existing content” and shows private pages and pretty much tons of stuff I dont want my forum users to go to. If you want to know what I mean, you can actually do the same thing on this bbPress support forum when you are replying to a post.

Is there a way to turn off “Link to Existing Content” when using the post formatting toolbar for forum users?

My site btw is

Thank you!!

I’m in the process of moving an established WordPress/BBPress setup to a new server. It is installed in a 2nd level directory named http://[server]/town-square/ which is the WordPress install directory. It has been working fine on the old server for over a year. I am only using the BBPress and Calendar plugins. Their slugs are /town-square/forums/ and /town-square/calendar/

Clicking the links to those pages I get a 404.

I can login in as admin by directly accessing /town-square/wp-login.php (albeit with a funny pre-login that seems to be required by the hosting company). Logged in as admin I have access to all the usual dashboard functionality and the plugin config pages.

I also have access to the WordPress database by phpMyAdmin. I did alter a few of the wp_options values to reflect the new domain name that I am obliged to use until we can transfer the current domain name to the new server. Those changes corrected a few problems with the links that WordPress constructed.

My question is: How do I make the links to the plugin pages work via their slugs?

Many thanks
Tim

[timsilva_]

Thanks for all the info Rob! I didn’t know about the shift+enter trick. I was hoping to find a way to avoid enabling TinyMCE for bbPress, but maybe it’s the best path to what I’m looking for.

How does bbpress differ users and so their replies and topics under “my replies/topics”?

I’m just checking my site and recognized that for regular users at “My replies” the replies of all users (instead of the one currently logged in) are displayed. As I created all users as admin for purpose of testing only, they have different usernames but all the same IP.

Hi there, right now I’m using Mingle Forum for my website. But this is becoming unstable. I’d like to install bbpress but will my data and topics stay intact?
