Hello:

Please treat like a complete newbie on this subject matter:
1. How do I link a topic to a forum (restrict it to the linked forum)?
2. What does it mean to stick it to the front end?
3. how do I integrate BBPress with MemberPress, Member Press does not use WordPress Registration, it has its own.

Just made a new updated installation of bbpress, just in case..with latest german language file.
now the prefix is “I” in German on all profile pages. Should be:
My (singular, German: “Mein”) Profile
My (plural, German: “Meine”) posts, replies, subscriptions, favorites,..

I’m not sure what I did but bbpress settings, forums, etc all disappeared

I deactivated and activated – no joy
I deleted and reinstalled – still no joy.

Any ideas how to fix?

Amazing Robkk! It is exactly what I was looking for!

<?php if ( get_current_user_id() == bbp_get_topic_author_id() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'reply' ); ?>

		<?php elseif ( current_user_can( 'moderate' ) ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'reply' ); ?>

		<?php else : ?>

			<div class="bbp-template-notice">
				<p><?php _e( 'You do not have permission to reply to this topic.', 'bbpress' ); ?></p>
			</div>

		<?php endif; ?>

Thanks a lot!

Hello there everyone, I have searched all over the Forum and many Sites but I had no luck finding any bbcode Editor. The only thing that I found was the “bbpress Post Toolbar” Plugin which wasn’t maintained anymore, I took the risk and tried it out. But then I found out that it was actually coded to work with HTML and as many of you already know, your participants cannot use all the HTML tags. It used some Codes used that was not allowed for a participant to use. When I was searching I came up with the Idea to edit the Toolbar so that it uses bbcode. But for WordPress to support bbcode I had to install another Plugin, “GD bbpress Tools”. Everything is working except the “Close HTML Tags”, where I really don’t know how to do it, I was hoping any of you guys could help me.

You can download the Edited Plugin here: http://bit.ly/1KramlM

I used 2 Plugins:
bbpress Post Toolbar
GD bbpress Tools

Thank you 🙂

Current version of bbPress does not support imports from phpBB 3.1, next major release will.

@daphnechin

What are your permalinks structure?? Do you have a port in your url, or just a unique looking url for your site??

Also try some troubleshooting steps listed here.

Are you sure this is a bbPress issue??

[Robkk]

Download and put this file into your child theme in a folder called bbpress.

I think this will not work for Anonymous Posting though.

Well from what it looks like this is a paid theme so I do not have access to it. Even the demo does not have bbPress forums installed, so I cannot really pinpoint your issue.

You can ask the theme author since it is a paid theme and that you are still in the development process.

@kelley & @robkk – I have the same problem – I also use powermag theme from themeforest and I also have the layout problem with the replies.
Any reply after though, the avatar and name is at the bottom of the screen?!$%&
How did you solve it??

[cirrus123]

As this ONLY happens with bbpress, do you still recommend deleting the htaccess file?

Hi All,

Hoping someone out there can help me. I am converting my old website into wordpress and am trying to import my forum into bbpress but have run into a problem. I can’t seem to get the import to start.

I fill in the database details on the import page using the details from my config.php file and then click start, the page displays the “Starting Conversion” status and the loading circle is spinning but that is as far as it gets.

I had read all the pages and guides and forum posts I can find for a week but cannot figure out where I am going wrong.

The forum I am importing is a very small forum compared to other websites and I have tried leaving the page on this status for 4 hours without any change.

Is there somewhere I can find an error log that would tell me what is going on or would anywhere have any ideas would could be the cause of this

Im running phpbb 3.1.5
Wordpress Version 4.2.3

Thanks in advance

Richard

The close tags function closed my last bbcode opening tag. You can also just close the bbcode by hitting the button again. it should show a little / that shows that it needs to be closed.

Other than that, I explain how to use some (not all) bbcodes to the quicktags here if that helps any.

BBCode Buttons?

[Robkk]

Well backing up your forums, for all the data on your site,you backup your database. Just the bbPress post types and data from all that, I might need to do some testing. It might just be using the export tool in WordPress Tools section, it might be using a plugin to backup one forum at a time, or whatever alternative I can find.

[project_subdomain]

this is a part of the original bbpress/inc/common/template.php (which i thought is relevant on this). untouched. just looked at it for finding a possible reason for the behaviour. i still don’t get it to work.

[project_subdomain]

thanks, robkk. that’s weird as I don’t have SEO plugins activated as well.
This is what’s in my template.php:

/** Users *****************************************************************/

	// Profile page
	} elseif ( bbp_is_single_user() ) {

		// User is viewing their own profile
		if ( bbp_is_user_home() ) {
			$new_title['text'] = esc_attr_x( 'Your', 'User viewing his/her own profile', 'bbpress' );

		// User is viewing someone else's profile (so use their display name)
		} else {
			$new_title['text'] = sprintf( esc_attr_x( "%s's", 'User viewing another users profile', 'bbpress' ), get_userdata( bbp_get_user_id() )->display_name );
		}

		// User topics created
		if ( bbp_is_single_user_topics() ) {
			$new_title['format'] = esc_attr__( "%s Topics",        'bbpress' );

		// User rueplies created
		} elseif ( bbp_is_single_user_replies() ) {
			$new_title['format'] = esc_attr__( "%s Replies",       'bbpress' );

		// User favorites
		} elseif ( bbp_is_favorites() ) {
			$new_title['format'] = esc_attr__( "%s Favorites",     'bbpress' );

		// User subscriptions
		} elseif ( bbp_is_subscriptions() ) {
			$new_title['format'] = esc_attr__( "%s Subscriptions", 'bbpress' );

		// User "home"
		} else {
			$new_title['format'] = esc_attr__( "%s Profile",       'bbpress' );
		}

I can’t tell if you need to put your custom language files in a different area or this is a bug in bbPress or not. I will try to get some other help from a dev to see whats up.

[Robkk]

I am not sure what “Secondary” could be from. It might be the template bbPress is inheriting from your theme?

[Mei Ling]

I am a newbie. I have seen functions in the codex I’d like to activate: site of the member or limit the access to the admin panel, etc.
Do we have to add the functions to the child theme or in the core of bbpress. Is there a more intuitive way to do such a thing.
We do not want a lot of plugin.

I thank you for your feedback

Mei-Ling

Copy the form-reply.php file into your child theme and remove this code for topic tags input on the reply form.

<?php if ( bbp_allow_topic_tags() && current_user_can( 'assign_topic_tags' ) ) : ?>

<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_form_tags' ); ?>

	<p>
	<label for="bbp_topic_tags"><?php esc_html_e( 'Tags:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
	<input type="text" value="<?php bbp_form_topic_tags(); ?>" size="40" name="bbp_topic_tags" id="bbp_topic_tags" <?php disabled( bbp_is_topic_spam() ); ?> />
	</p>

<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_form_tags' ); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

You can customize the content of the form using this CSS.

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-the-content-wrapper textarea.bbp-the-content {
    margin-top: 0;
    height: 210px;
}

The font is inherited from your theme.

[Robkk]

Does deactivating the bbPress WP Tweaks plugin solve remove your error?? There are other ways to only show certain widgets for only bbPress pages.

[Robkk]

#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form input[type=text] {
    border: 1px solid #e4e4e4;
    padding: 0.5em 0;
}

Hi there,

I do not want to allow other admins to access the FTP. Is it possible to have “check box” to activate or deactivate functionalities in BBPRESS

I thank you in advance
