Hi Robkk!

I was hoping I might hear from you! 🙂

I’ve actually had this problem long before I installed Buddypress (which was just a couple of days ago).

I do use the “Private Groups” plugin, however, this problem seems to be directly linked to BBPress. The Private Groups plugin only hides the content after you click on the title link (directing you to a private page). However, since these are full BBPress forum posts, the Private Groups plugin is not kicking in.

Does that makes sense?

Thanks!
Sharon

It might be a javascript issue , I just had to mess with a popular theme framework for a user to fix a bug in bbPress.

And it was some javascript file from the theme conflicting with bbPress.

So contact them to see if they can test that out.

Hello, I was wondering if I can have the same toolbar that is on my bbpress comments section in my blog comments section? So users can bold, link add images for my blog comments etc… Im not sure if this is a bbpress question or a wordpress question. Thanks

Read this persons answer to another similar topic.

phpbb3.1.3 to bbPress – Installation database error

[Robkk]

All of bbPress’s default plugin files are in the bbPress plugin folder.

This could be from some security/spam plugin.

You also modify the main template that bbPress uses but this would also require FTP data.

You should contact your host to find the FTP data you have.

The solution to the issue should be in a link in this reply I made.

Is this what you are looking for??

i have to create a new widget for own customization work and where i have to place that file

If you know what you are doing , you can place it in a child themes functions.php , or just place it in a new file like says widgets.php to better organize your content then include the file using something like this in your functions.php

require get_template_directory() . '/inc/widgets.php';

You can also place the code in a custom plugin too.

You shouldnt place any customizations in the bbPress plugins folder, because you will lose the changes next update.

And You dont need to place the customized widget funcitons in the bbpress folder in your child theme either.

[Robkk]

I will contact the plugin devs to see if this is a bug in bbPress.

If there is , I will most likely create a trac ticket on it.

I have no idea what is causing this but I would like to get rid of the white, boxy forum navigator and keep the sleek one below it. Here are some pictures:

WordPress: 4.2.2
Theme: StoreFront 1.4.6
bbPress: 2.5.7
JetPack: 3.5.3

Any ideas would be great.

I believe this is because of DB differences between phpBB 3.0x and 3.1x.

Current import only supports phpBB 3.0x

I was able to get rid of the error messages by creating the columns it complains about.

You can also try this: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/2716/2716.1.diff

Hello,

As the topic says, i’m having issues importing from an upgraded phpBB v2.x forum.

I have approximately 4200 users, 1900 topics and 4400 replies on a phpBB v2 platform. I was able to successfully upgrade to v3.0.x and v3.1.x. As far as the phpBB upgrade goes, everything works, including authentication.

I am now trying to import into bbPress. I’ve tried using version bbPress 2.5.7 and 2.5.5. I’ve also tried using the new patch file that supports phpBB 3.1. I’m running WordPress 4.2.2, but also tried with 4.2. All on fresh installs with bbPress as the only plugin installed and activated.

I can see the passwords in user_meta. But I can’t login. No error other than the password is incorrect.

Would anyone be able to help? Am I out of luck coming form version 2.x of phpBB? If i’m out of luck, is the “Lost your password?” link the only route to fix passwords?

Thanks!!

SD17.

Hey I am new to bbpress and I was wondering since I am a admin is there anyway so i can make a topic in my forums appear at the top so everyone can see that topic when they go into the forums. I want other people to post other topics but i just want mine on top so it will never get backed up into different pages when more people post other topics. thanks

Thanks Robin,

It is a very. very nice plugin that you have created… But it won’t do for my needs in these regards… It puts the Edit Profile link into the main menu as a primary menu item, with no ability to change where it is or do anything else with it… It is there in the primary main site menu or nothing…

If your plugin put the Edit Profile link into the Menu section of Admin, with the same ability to use it however, in the same way that pages, posts, forums, CPTs and all the rest are there to be used as needed or not, then it would be very helpful, even perfect for my needs… Where the link goes TO is perfect…

I don’t need the rest of what your plugin does, as I have done some very extensive modifications of bbPress via my child theme over the last couple years…

But anyone starting out or in early stages with bbPress should find your plugin very helpful indeed…

So, still wondering what you think about getting some code similar to what this thread is discussing to work via one of the PHP plugins I mention above…? I want to be able to just have a discrete but clear little (page/post) link that I can place in a specific place in a specific sidebar, like I have done with other links, that lets logged in folks who are using the forums directly link to their particular Forums profile page and make changes… Basically accomplish the same thing that I can accomplish for the main WP profile page with this link: http://www.yourwebsite.com/wp-admin/profile.php… If someone not logged in clicks this link they are taken to a WP login page…

Thanks for all the hard work you are doing for a while now to make bbPress better and better and better…

Kind regards…

Attachments to forum replies do not show up past the first nesting level. Not sure if this is a issue with the theme or bbPress. Basically if I reply to another comment and attach a file, the file doesn’t show up.

Hello Guillaume, no i don’t find a solution to solve my issue. BBpress default port is 80, so normally bbpress work in local.

Hello zewitchi,

I had to change Register URI and Lost Password URI in bbPress widget. This was because I had previously WordPress installed on local server.

[dfwpress]

Hello,
Thank you for your answer.
Meanwhile I have found where the problem is. There were residual links in bbPress widget from my local WordPress installation which I had to change after transfer to server.
After that I have combined bbPress login widget with Clean Login plugin pages to avoid redirection to WordPress login page after user registration. This combination seems to works OK.
Regards

[mycon]

Thanks @Robkk

I have a couple more regarding registration and login. In both instances, how can I control the page the user goes to after successful login?

I am using WordPress 4.2.2 running Jupiter theme and using bbpress login shortcode on a page.
(currently it stays on same login page with a successful login message)

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
