WordPress 4.2.2 running Make theme. bbPress Version 2.5.7
The site is in countdown mode, so there’s nothing to see there. But I created a forums page using the permalink method and it works well, except I can’t seem to get rid of the useless and annoying empty author mark. Can anyone help?

WordPress 4.2.2 Avada v3.7.4 bbpress Version 2.5.7
http://www.haltoninfo.org.uk

I would like the hover colour for all the text links to be in red.
I have added the following to the custom CSS box:
a:hover{color:red; !important;}
This does not work in my sidebar.
It works for the bbpress login widget, but not for Forum List, Recent Topics or Recent Replies widgets.
Please can you tell me what CSS code to use.

I managed to fix it using the solution described in this post:

Change the default Forums page

It might be more of a workaround than anything else, but it’s transparent to our readers, so that works for me.

Thanks for following up and getting back to me!

Hello,

I want to remove thumbnail images from the topic index in bbpress forum.

Right now, if you use the tag to post a picture in a forum topic post, the image shows as a thumbnail in the topic list. I want it to not do that, and JUST show the images in the post itself.

Any ways of doing this?? I’ve looked around and tried some things other people suggested, but to no avail.

Hi – I’ve just started using bbPress and am fairly new to it. I’ve searched as best I can through this forum to find answers to my questions but to no avail.
So, I have a current site with hundreds of post and page comments which I would like to turn into a forum for ease of navigation.
I’ve installed bbPress 2.5.7 and also bbPress Topics for Posts 1.8.1 (I noticed this hasn’t been updated for a long time).
I’ve managed to get the post comments into the forum – so that’s all fine and dandy.
Now I can’t seem to get the page comments into the forum. How is this done?
Additionally – the interface is not very intuitive. If a new customer comes to the site and wants to ask a question they are greeted with “You must be logged in to reply to this topic” but there is no obvious place or link for them to “log in” so they can post a comment. Is there a work around for this so they don’t need to “log in”?

It is currently on PHPbb 3.1.3.

Known issue that is being worked on.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2716

if you want you can also just patch the current phpbb importer using the most recent file @netweb posted.

I doubt someone will make a plugin like this in the near future because it’s listed as a native bbPress feature for 2.7. ( next year at bbPres dev pace )
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/milestone/2.7

If you’re feeling comfy editing the bbPress template files you could make something like this in a very basic setup.

1) You’d need to add a few different user_roles to WordPress and give each moderator it’s own user_role
2) Next you’d have to work with conditional PHP tags. For example: PHP -> If [ user_role = xxx AND topic is in forum ID ZZZ ] then –> show the moderation links. IF the above rule is not true –> don’t show them at all and return nothing.

https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags

This isn’t very difficult if you have beginner PHP knowledge or let’s say you’re not afraid to touch the template files on a development install. Never do this on a Live site if you don’t know what you’re doing.

Hello!

Please suggest a plugin for bbPress, which will appoint a moderator for each sub-forums? To moderators can manage only their individual sub-forum (and other sub-forums, they might not moderate).

And which a plugin (for bbPress), will enable the board administrator to release some people from the pre-moderation and placed them in order of comments? (To be able to return this function back).

Hi, guys,

Yes, I know this topic has been somewhat discussed in a few other threads and I’ve read through them all, but I’m still not really clear on what the pros/cons are for installing this plugin in one’s existing domain/website vs. in a sub-domain. One comment that made an impression on me was one person’s claim that over time it would be hard to keep the bbpress databases optimized if you install in your main domain since bbpress shares databases with wordpress. This, according to the person, would slow down the site.

Can anyone with experience or wisdom give me a definitive statement of the pros and cons of installing in one’s main site domain vs. a sub-domain so that I can stop this endless search for answers and just install this thing? 🙂 THANKS!!

I know there used to be a plugin for a visual editor that worked with bbpress, but I can’t seem to remember what it was called or how to set it up.

I want a plugin that has more than the very basic features of the visual bbpress has built in. Does anyone remember the name of said plugin?

[alcavit]

Hi,

I just run a small forum and am looking to move it to bbpress. It is currently on PHPbb 3.1.3. I have everything entered in correct I am sure, but all I get when I import is the replies… No users, categories, topics, etc… just replies.

Let me know if you have any suggestions please.

Hi, i have just launched a new site that has a bbPress Forum. I am using Wishlist member as it has premium products within it. When WLM is activated, the first (original) post of a topic doesn’t show. If I disable WLM it shows. I note that some people were having the same issue with S2 Member a while ago. Can anyone provide some clues? Thanks

Using the Avada theme for my website and have a Fusion Sliders that cap the top of my pages. I have the rest of the layout for my bbpress working great after some help from others here…

But how do I get bbpress to pull the Fusion Slider and attach it to the top of the page above the posts/replies when New Topics are created?

I know that I can go in to topics and manually do it once the topics are created, but want to set it up where it automatically attaches when anyone creates a New Topic.
I’m sure there’s probably something I can put in the file that creates the new “page” but I need a little help/direction in doing that.

(Worst case/last resort: How to just do an image instead?)

The setup current user error is a bug in WordPress.

https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/24169

@jookkoo

The groups issue is known bug and the trac ticket for it is here.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2782

OH my god, why the plugin author don’t fix this issue.
But most of all need to say thank you again.

It is an issue with two different plugins, bbPress and BuddyPress.

the fix seems to be slated for bbPress 2.6

[Robkk]

The Groups error might be a known issue too.

I think that is this ticket

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2782

read this trac ticket , and follow some of the links to the duplicates

I also found that when, as Keymaster, I went to Edit a particular topic or reply, the Edit field displayed no text and I was not able to save any changes. When I commented out this particular snippet form derricksmith01’s solution the problem dissappeared.

function buddyboss_bbpress_form_reply_content($retval){
	global $bp;
	if (end($bp->action_variables) == 'edit' && in_array('topic', $bp->action_variables) && in_array('reply', $bp->action_variables)) {
		$post = get_post( bbpress()->current_reply_id );
		return esc_textarea( $post->post_content );
	}
}

add_filter('bbp_get_form_reply_content','buddyboss_bbpress_form_reply_content', 10, 1);

Hello.

I’d like to solve problem.
Would anyone answer to my problem?

Firstly, the conditions of WordPress, bbPress, design theme, plugin, and function.php are below.
Wordpresss: Latest version
bbPress: Latest version
design theme: Original building
plugin: introduced “bbPress – Sort topic replies”.
The settings of this plugin are “Global:Descending”, “No Parent:Default”, and “Always show lead Topic:Yes”.
function.php: Below code exists.

add_filter('bbp_before_has_replies_parse_args', 'change_reply_order');
function change_reply_order() {
	$args['order'] = 'DESC';
	return $args;
}

add_filter('bbp_show_lead_topic', 'custom_bbp_show_lead_topic' );
function custom_bbp_show_lead_topic( $show_lead ) {
  $show_lead[] = 'true';
  return $show_lead;
}

Then, here is main topic.
The function of bbPress itself is that after the user replies to the parent topic in topic page, next screen shows the last page(the page of max number) if the pagination shows.
With the setting of “bbPress – Sort topic replies” plugin is under “Global:Descending”, the redirection which I expect is to go to the first page.
I think that this solution isn’t https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/new-replies-redirect-to-last-page/

I’ve searched and tried to solve the problem, however I can’t find the solution.
I wonder my current settings or ways might be wrong.

Thanks.

I have been working as a research paper writer in one of the leading research paper writing service for the past 5 years and in the past month a forum has been created for our website. In that forum, our my management has wished to change the theme. But,they don’t like the available themes. so,please tell me when the new themes will be get released for the bbpress forums.

[Robkk]

Adding menu links like that is quite difficult unless you manually create the menu in HTML and just not worry about the WordPress menu configuration.

I suggest maybe creating a copy of the login widget and add whatever links you want for the suer to the bbPress login Widget.

This explains it quite briefly.

Layout and functionality – Examples you can use

If you need help or an example plugin to create this please reply back.

[Robkk]

@muchman13 and @dreambot

Guys this is an old topic

The theme was probably for bbPress v1 so not for the bbPress 2 plugin

the guy doesn’t even use WordPress, that is just a static site hosted on I think Github

[Robkk]

@jturet

I don’t know , suggest you hire a developer if you really want this functionality.

but by default bbPress and BuddyPress do not use the visual editors so Id say just use the default text editor.
