Hello,
This forum http://www.mp-mag.com/en/forums/ does not send mail after submitting registration form.
Please is there any suggestion?
Wordpress 4.2.2
bbPress 2.5.7

Simply, all you need to do is commenting a line in ‘content-archive-topic.php’ as shown below:
The file path is ‘..\wp-content\plugins\bbpress\templates\default\bbpress\content-archive-topic.php’ at around line number 30.

<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘pagination’, ‘topics’); ?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘loop’, ‘topics’); ?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘pagination’, ‘topics’); ?>

Just comment the first line to avoid displaying top pagination link as:

<!—- ?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘pagination’, ‘topics’); ? —–>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘loop’, ‘topics’); ?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘pagination’, ‘topics’); ?>

thanks, sam. tried several codes, nothing worked unfortunately (blank page):(

add_action( 'loop_start', 'divs_only_when_logged_in' );

function divs_only_when_logged_in() {

<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {?>
 
    <div class="new-reply-link">

	<a href="<?php bbp_topic_permalink(); ?>#new-post
"class="reply-link-text">Reply</a> 
    </div></br>

<ul id="bbp-topic-<?php bbp_topic_id(); ?>-lead" class="bbp-lead-topic">

	<li class="bbp-header">

		<div class="bbp-topic-author"><?php  _e( 'Author',  'bbpress' ); ?>
</div>

<?php endif; ?>
}  
?>

I would love to see native PMs in bbPress, with a notification system better than an email (eg a widget, or popup informing the visitor of a new PM).

Just installed bbPress again after it didn’t work and really want to get it going since it’s about the best forum plugin available for WordPress. The issue is that trying to edit a post will take you to a page like this.

Is there any advice on how to fix the ability to edit a post. I tried under an admin account as well and got the same issue.

[project_subdomain]

Hi,
is there anyone who can help me to get this part

<div class="new-reply-link">

	<a href="<?php bbp_topic_permalink(); ?>#new-post
"class="reply-link-text">Reply</a> 
</div></br>

<ul id="bbp-topic-<?php bbp_topic_id(); ?>-lead" class="bbp-lead-topic">

	<li class="bbp-header">

		<div class="bbp-topic-author"><?php  _e( 'Author',  'bbpress' ); ?>
</div>

<!-- .bbp-topic-author -->

into an if-statement for logged in users?

I suppose that
<?php if ( bbp_is_user_logged_in() ) { ... } ?>
does not work that simple due to the additional php within, right?
(no success so far..)

This custom function should remove the “forums” in the breadcrumbs.

Put it in your child theme functions.php or a functionality plugin to place custom code snippets.

function rkk_custom_bbpbreadcrumbs() {
    // Remove Forum root from bbPress breadcrumbs
    $args['include_root']    = false;
    return $args;
}

add_filter('bbp_before_get_breadcrumb_parse_args', 'rkk_custom_bbpbreadcrumbs');

[Robkk]

your theme thinks bbPress is a blog post.

usually modifying the main bbPress template will help fix this.

The issue is with the theme, not bbpress, so you would need to understand and correct the theme.

[GuiZolaii]

This is already done and they tell me that the theme is not compatible with BBPress …
Do you have any ideas for it to become so easily? Is there a tutorial to become compliant template?

[Robkk]

I replied here since you and another user seem to have the same problem.

No topics shown to forum participants

Here is what I posted anyway.

Alright make sure both of you have gone through these troubleshooting steps.

• Deactivate all plugins except bbPress.
• Switch to a default theme
• Flush permalinks by switching to default , save , next switch to your preferred structure then save again
• Clear any cache
• Go to Tools > Forums > Repair Forums then run each repair job one at a time.

Does it Work??

If it does work now, activate your plugins one at a time and make sure to spot the one that might have caused the issue.

Not a plugin issue??

You can try these plugins one at a time to see which one helps.

Thanks Robkk. It seems as though since bbPress is supposed to be compatible with multi-site that it should be able to have local admins for each blog.

I appreciate your input.

Just shy away from using shortcodes for forum pages , it will be time consuming. You would have to possibly create pages for all instances of any bbPress page. This includes topic pages and user profile pages.

The way you could get a non-fullwidth layout is to contact your theme author , which I think is Avada for help. Since they have more knowledge of how the theme works and I can’t just buy a theme and test it out and tell you what to do to have this layout.

You could also do this manually with my help guiding you, but you would need some basic knowledge of how WordPress templates work.

This guide will help with getting the layout , you would need to add the sidebar code back in like how the example template has. Please note that that is just an example template and is not something to copy and paste since all themes are different.

I interprete your “use WordPress as CMS not as blog” as : use “show static page” instead of “show last posts” in “customization”…

CMS is an acronym content management system, and what I mean is instead of using WordPress for creating blog posts you can just use to manage your forums, users, etc.

So I should put the bbPress root template as this static page. and fix the root folder as “” ?
that what you suggest ?

You could use the forum index shortcode [bbp-forum-index] or [bbp-topic-index] and place this in a page and make that your front page if that is what you want.

Or create a custom homepage template to use like this site has.

Read this for information about that. Creating Page Templates

bbPress

I don’t want to have a “/forum” in the URL.

As for removing that I dont think you can , you can remove /forums though in settings > forums.

You can rename /forum to whatever you want though.

[Robkk]

the reply above me is spam do not worry about that.

@oscarguy

Thanks for your input. Do I find the membership plugins on the regular wordpress site or here on the bbpress site?

I guess either one really , it is just the same data. Search “bbpress membership”

you would probably get

Paid Memberships Pro
s2Member
bbPress extension for membermouse
Premium membership with Bitcoin
Restrict Content Pro – bbPress

There are probably more but might require some searching on google , you should test them out on a test site before installing on a production site.

[virtualassphil]

just now i manually created that page so the default forums will be replaced, and it does. and i assigned “bbpress sidebar” but it shows different sidebar compared to subforums i used. here’ http://www.virtual assistant philippines. org/forum/faq/ even though i used the same widgets for both forums and subforums. ( i separated my website url because im thinking that is the reason why my post is not appering here)

have you check it? they are different content in the sidebar eventhough i used the same “bbpress sidebar” widget

please advice.

Thanks

[virtualassphil]

Hello Rob,

I swear to god that the virtual assistant philippines. org /forums/ is not showing to my pages> all pages. it appears default after i installed bbpress plugin, i never touch it because i cant find that page to edit.

[thierryyyyyyy]

I already have such a WordPress Network.
I use “multi-domain” to link different domains …

(I’m fighting to test it, I did not succeed yet but for stupid DNS problems…)

Thank you

Hello Everyone!

I have my forums installed and I am happy with it. Now I would like to add a checkbox to the edit profile screen..

I know in form-user-edit.php I can find the code that displays the fields, but can someone give me some insight into how this information is processed once the form is submitted?

I know that this hidden field holds the action name:
<input type=”hidden” name=”action” id=”bbp_post_action” value=”bbp-update-user” />

but after looking at the file bbpress\includes\users\functions.php, where that action is being defined I don’t see where I could add in the extra code to process the custom field if I were to add it.

I hope I am being clear, all I want to do is add ONE checkbox to every users edit profile page(where they change password/email), and save to user_meta… I know how I can add the field to the front end, but am unsure of how the data gets processed…

Thanks,
Anthony

Is there then a way to merge users? So that if someone registered on the WordPress site and separately on the forums that afterwards they can be combined?

You can delete a user then attribute their content to another user

We have a members-only section for our forums. I understand these forums will be made public and we would need to hide them, but is there a way to set up users that have access only to certain sections while the general public has access to everything else? I don’t want to assign all of our members the ability to edit content on the site, just have access to a members only forum.

There are a couple of membership plugins that are compatible with bbPress, you could also use the bbPress private groups plugin.

Will this create two separate MySQL databases? Will the old phpBB still be there and operational? Can the two be used simultaneously and will content posted in one cross-post to the other once merged to bbpress?

Your phpbb data will be imported into the WordPress database where bbPress would usually be. Cross posting I’m not sure. You should test this out on a test site to make sure everything is working okay and to your expectations.
