Hey guys,
In BBpress each user has the ability to edit their profile users/USER/edit/
Here they can add their name, their website link and their bio by default. However, this information is never actually displayed on their profile. Why is this?
On users profiles it says:

Forum Role: Keymaster

Topics Started: 0

Replies Created: 0

But the information such as their name, bio and website link are not displayed. Why are there options to add this information to the profile if it remains private?
How can I allow it to be displayed publically?
Thanks,
Chris

Is there any updated info on how to convert WP Symposium converter to bPress?

The gethub project in this thread https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wp-symposium-converter-for-bbpress/ does not work.

I added it to the converters directory and ran fine but it said it could not find any forums to covert.

Hello,

I’ve searched, really, and I didn’t find any solution before asking here.

So, first, here’s all versions used :
Wordpress : 4.2.4
BBPress : 2.5.8
Theme used : Cry Out Nirvana 1.0.6

A few other extensions are installed :
Active Directory Integration
Advanced Custom Fields
Advanced Custom Fields: Nav Menu Field
CKEditor for WordPress
Collapse-O-Matic
GD bbPress Attachments
List category posts
Members
Our Team
Post Types Order
TablePress
TablePress Extension: Row Details
Uber Login Logo
WP-Utilisateur-Avatar

I think there’s everything.
I can’t give a link to the website, at the moment it’s internal, in progress and next, it will be our new Intranet

So, here’s the issue I have.

My users make forum posts, seems to be OK.
When they try to modify a post, or if I try to modify it myself as admin, I don’t get the window to change the text but an article I made “sticky”, the article is not opened to be modified.

As an example
Link to the post : mysite.fr/index.php/foruminterneimestia/suject/test/
Button Modify : mysite.fr/index.php/foruminterneimestia/suject/test/edit/
Page I receive : mysite.fr/index.php/2015/08/10/edito/

Do you have any idea ?

Hi, to which address are you receiving notification? bbpress uses “bcc” to send notifications but add a “to” address to each outgoing email (probably because not all mail servers accept only the “bcc” address).

The “to” address is noreply@yoursite.tld (if not change by other plugins), it could be this address ends in your mailbox?

They change the noreply address since few versions, before the noreply address was built in a wrong way creating a log of bounced messages.

Stefano.

You need a plugin to use quotes with bbPress. The best plugin with quotes is GD bbPress tools.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-bbpress-tools/

[hotconductor]

I am trying to remedy an issue that occurred suddenly today and after no major changes on the site. Quotes are completely broken. They are exposed example..

[quote=753]content here
content
[/quote]

To troubleshoot earlier I disabled all plugins aside from bbpress and the problem persisted. Has anyone else encountered this issue before?

[hotconductor]

Greetings!

I am really enjoying bbpress but have a major glitch on my install. I am receiving notifications via email, but I am not subscribed to any topics. Zero. I even installed the plugin for unsubscribing from all topics just to verify and it states ‘no topics subscribed’ so there is no option.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

[jhmattern]

I need to be able to schedule topics in advance. For example, I might come up with an idea and draft a topic at 11pm on Sunday night, and I might want it to go live at 9am on Monday morning.

That’s no problem. I just create the topic in the admin area and use WP’s built-in scheduling feature. The topic goes live on the forum at 9am the next day as expected.

The problem, though, is that the freshness in BBPress doesn’t reflect this. At 9:30am, for example, it should show a freshness of 30 min ago for that topic. But instead, it’s showing 10 hours ago — based on the time the draft was scheduled rather than the actual scheduled publication time.

This is a particular problem when I need to schedule a week’s worth of new topics at once (to keep a growing community regularly updated with new discussion points). They all show that they have similar freshness when people view the main forum or category pages, instead of showing that content is being published at regular intervals.

Is there anything I can do to fix this so BBPress reflects actual publication time (like WP does in general) instead of relying on the time the topics were physically edited?

[imemine]

I am on the latest version of WordPress, but a custom theme ( developer left it half way) so I am fixing it myself.

1) The forum page shows for post the correct numbers. Example
post tite: Voices(5), Posts (6)

but inside posts it says
This topic contains 5 replies, has 5 voices
Viewing 1 post (of 1 total)
Then it shows just the main topic, not the replies to it.

This is the code for the bbpress.php template

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="page-left" class="container">
	<?php
	the_content();
	?>
</div>

<div id="page-right">
	<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Seems fine to me, what do you think I missed?

Read this, it is a common error usually not associated with bbPress, but other plugins.

The same happens with the profile page.

Hi,

Is it possible to have user registered using social builder plugin to bbpress? I want to use bbpress in my site Technotif

Thanks,

Hi
I get this:
Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init(). Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 2.3.) in /home/easychem/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3560

Also I found bbpress interapting my gallery library. When it’s activate I get blank screen in the gallery library, but’ when I switch it off, I can see all my gallery.
This is My site:

Using 2.5.8 version of bbp
and 4.2.4 of WordPress

I have anonymous posting disabled. The setup, as described in my first post (the bbPress setup tries to mirror the WordPress setup as closely as possible):

At the WordPress side, things work flawlessly spam-free with anonymous comments disabled, a custom question in the registration form (stops most spam bots), a mandatory e-mail confirmation for new subscribers, auto-moderation of the first comment (stops manual spammers) and Akismet (which doesn’t really have anything to do at the end). On the bbPress side, I’m only missing the moderation of a user’s first comment, which is letting through some spam.

Anyway, I don’t really want to turn this into a troubleshooting exercise for the bbPress Moderation plugin as that’ll just needlessly eat up your time. 🙂 I can give the plugin another go later if I decide to go down that route. But thanks again!

[Robkk]

I could really only find posts that were talking about bbPress v1 standalone. I did find a post that was in 2012, which I think the bbPress plugin was around then. You can study the code and see if it would work.

The page is in another language though.

@Robkk,
After a short support chat with Bluehost, the tech advised he ran a few basic fixes on the Bluehost side. This cleared an internal mail server cache. This apparently is not something I can do in my Bluehost account. He was very quick about this and knew exactly what to do once I described the problem. My notifications are now coming through ok.

Thank you for all the feedback and help. It never ceases to amaze me how gracious and helpful you folks can be here on bbPress.
my best
Matoca

Again,

Just reset the BBPress forum and everything turned right.

Hope you have a nice day @Robkk

[Jira R.]

Thank you Robert.

However, I tried to delete all custom CSS related to BBPress and even reinstalled the BBpress itself but nothing change. I just want it to be normal, not be located under the avatar. Please guide me a little more to fix this issue.

[Robkk]

Customize this CSS from bbPress.

#bbpress-forums div.even,
#bbpress-forums ul.even {
	background-color: #fff;
}

#bbpress-forums div.odd,
#bbpress-forums ul.odd {
	background-color: #fbfbfb;
}

[Robkk]

Okay, then it might not be a bug in bbPress then. I do not know why I didn’t get some emails from my server, some topic notifications did go into my spam folder though, but I did not get any forum notifications. I did subscribe to a forum on this site as a fallback for testing, and I did receive the forum notifications for new topics on this site though, so it seems to work fine.

I did not try the plugin yet because I want to check things in a certain order rather than adding another new plugin to my site and another layer of complications.

The functionality of that plugin I think is going to make it into core anyway. The way that bbPress does it right now with BCC, the emails could be caught up in a spam/junk folder.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2797?cversion=0&cnum_hist=2

So my next step should be to check with Bluehost support to see why these many different notifications from bbPress, Gravity Forms and Wordfence that are being generated are not being sent to any administrator emails. I’ll get back here when I find out more.

Okay, it makes sense to possibly be a server issue since you have issues with multiple notification emails from different plugins. WHen you get sorted with your issues with the other plugins, come back to tell me how bbPress is doing.

[Robkk]

I think this custom CSS on your site is causing the issue. Try to find an alternative to what you are trying to do before.

#bbpress-forums .bbp-body div.bbp-reply-content {
    clear: both;
    margin: 10px;
    padding: 0;
}

[Robkk]

Thanks for your time and effort in trying to help me Robkk, but I am aware of the above.

I am just making sure.

I also don’t doubt that bbPress Moderation works for most installations.

Tell me how you are set up.

Do you have anonymous posting enabled? Because after more testing Do not Moderate A topic or reply by a previously approved author does not work for anonymous posting, it still works well for registered members posting though.

I am starting to think that no alternative solutions are going to come up, which then leaves me to either try to get bbPress Moderation to work as you suggest, or write something myself.

A third option could be to wait for the maker of the bbPress Notify (No-Spam) plugin to come up with something, as his future plans with the bbPress Moderation Plugin Add-On appear to be to turn it into a successor for bbPress Moderation.

Yeah, you don’t have to use the bbPress moderation plugin. You can always fork it, or use any available alternatives, free or paid.

Good Morning all,

This is an issue I have had present on my bbPress forum ever since I moved away from Apache, and onto lighttpd. The difference is, I have to add the rules manually to get them to work. Anyway, here is what I currently have in my .htaccess equivalent:

# This is mainly a fix for bbPress and its functions
url.rewrite = (
    "^//(wp-admin|wp-includes|wp-content|gallery2)/(.*)" => "$0",
    "^//(.*)\.(.+)$" => "$0",
    "^//(.+)/?$" => "/index.php/$1"
  )
}

Unfortunately, whenever I try to perform an action on a post (e.g anything that utilises the “?action” URL argument), it redirects back to the post. E.g:

http://rockstarwire.net/community/thread/yrs/edit/?action=merge – Will navigate to the edit post page.
http://rockstarwire.net/community/thread/bbcodes-have-been-temporarily-disabled/?action=bbp_toggle_topic_close&topic_id=983 – Will navigate to the post again. (and won’t close the topic)

Now I am pretty sure this is going to be something to do with the URL redirects, infact, I am almost positive that will be the case.

Could anyone assist with this one?

Thanks

[Jira R.]

After I created a topic, all of the content is under a avatar not on the center of the page. How can I fix this problem?
