I am talking about only hidden or private buddypress groups.

Admin can ban or remove users from groups in buddypress. I have tested that new topic notifications with message are sent to banned users that i don’t want, if they are subscribed to group forum.

If group admin ban a user, Ideally banned user should be automatically unsubscribed to group forum. But according to my tests new notifications are still sent by bbpress plugin to banned or removed users.

How can i myself unsubscribe a user to a forum or topic?

You have to create a new role and it has to have these set capabablites

'publish_topics' => false,

and

'publish_replies' => true,

While what I listed is oversimplified, you may need to adjust extra capabilities to your liking. To learn how to create a new user role with its own custom capabilities read this guide.

Custom Capabilities

You then set the default role in the forum settings in Settings > Forums in the WordPress backend.

To change existing users you have to change their forum role in Users > All Users in the WordPress backend.

You might need your permalinks refreshed.

When I log out of the site appears to me that:

It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for.
This might be because:

You have typed the web address incorrectly

Please try the following:

Check for a mis-typed URL error
Press the refresh button on your browser.
Go back to Homepage
And to get on the site must login me 2 times to I can get in Dashbord.

I am using bbpress with buddypress and i have enabled group forums.

I have tested forum and new topic subscription settings for private and hidden groups. I have found new topic or reply notifications are also sent to even banned users as well as removed users, if they are subscribed to the topics or forums.

I want new reply are topic notifications are not sent to banned and those users that are removed from group. How and where can i change these setting?

[Robkk]

You can use Math Captcha or bbPress No CAPTCHA reCAPTCHA if you are looking for captchas specifically.

There also might be more alternatives, so do a search if you want.

[Robkk]

I don’t think that plugin can do that, you may need to look into using another captcha plugin for bbPress topic and reply forms.

[drillbell]

I installed bbPress and I would like to add captcha in Forum post.
I tried with SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam, but does not appear in Forum posts created by me.
Can you help me with this? Thanks!

I have iThemes Security installed, with several options enabled:
– admin user has been renamed
– admin user is on a different id then 1
– database table prefix has been changed
– …

When I install bbpress, after trying to open the bbp-about or the bbp-repair pages, I always get following error:
“You do not have sufficient permissions”

No new menu is added neither in the admin panel, so I have no way to use it, activate it or see it.

I tried several database changes as mentioned in the forum, but nothing worked.

Anyone knows how to fix this?

Thank you.

1. How do I link a topic to a forum (restrict it to the linked forum)?

You might have to use this plugin, but I am not entirely sure.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/page-links-to/

2. What does it mean to stick it to the front end?

Sticking a topic to the front, means to stick it above all forums instead of just the forum the topic was in.

3. how do I integrate BBPress with MemberPress, Member Press does not use WordPress Registration, it has its own.

Their site says the plugin should work seamlessly with bbPress, if it doesn’t work to your liking with bbPress, you may need to contact their support for help.

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,..

[rishigangoly]

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?

[Danilo Borges]

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.

[bergblume]

@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??

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.
