I’m looking for a forum discussion plug-in for my multisite, which is now at WP 6.1.1. I’ve been trying wpforo but I’m having issues with it so hoping this might be an alternative….

I get a warning saying bbpress hasn’t been tested with 6.1.1, so I’ve not yet tried to instal it. Wondering whether anyone here can offer any advice on that? Is it in testing, will it be soon, or should I not worry?

I’m being cautious, particularly as wpforo doesn’t seem to want to network deactivate, among other things….

Many thanks

Post Comments as bbPress Topics

[chatgptfrance]

After searching, I didn’t manage to find any plugin to duplicate WordPress Post as a new forum topic on the forum of my choice…

It’s very strange that is not a natural function into BBpress…

Anyone can help me please ?

bbpressmoderation.1.8.3.zip

i will send you some ss.

In this way, when I want to send a message from a normal member, it sends it immediately. But I want admin to allow comments. I don’t want it to appear unless you allow it. and something has changed. Now when I log in, it redirects to a different page.

[Robin W]

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

[Robin W]

I want it to be submitted for my approval when users post a post in the flow. I also installed the bbpress modaration plugin, but when I want to post a post from my test account, it is shared immediately without approval. How can I solve this problem?

1. the bbpress moderation plugin has been withdrawn – cab you confirm what plugin you are using
2. what roles did your test account have, and what settings do you have for the plugin?

This is one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
install

bbp style pack

once activated, navigate to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.

In that tab, select

Enable Theme Support

and save

The forums should then display

Hi there.
I’m trying to install bbPress in a WP new enviroment.
Plugin is activated as usual, but when I create a new forum, topic or debate, all front-end pages associated are blank.
I have tried to replicate the problem in two different servers and it persists.

If you can add to my topic on the Astra support it may help things.

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bbpress-user-profile-broken-on-latest-update/

[confusedneedhelp]

Hi,

I have the same problem. I am using the Astra theme and since the latest update to 4.0.2 the user page enters a constant loop trying to load the profile info until the server cannot cope.

Are you using the Astra theme? I tried their support but they were not helpful. If I go back to the previous version of Astra it works ok.

I am using the default Astra theme with only BBpress activated. I can provide a link to a staging site if anyone wants to see it.

This is one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
install

bbp style pack

once activated, navigate to

Hi there,

I am trying to setup pbbpress on the TwentyTwentyThree Theme.

I can view the forums by adding an empty index.php in the theme root.

Also I am using the snippet provided here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blank-topic-pages-on-bbpress-while-using-twenty-twenty-two-theme/#post-15612896

But if I click a user name (e.g. someone who created a a new topic) I get
a page with the user sname as headline and then just “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr. ” …

I assumed I would get to see infos regarding the user, but I believe the issue is with TwentyTwentyThree, since it is using a different template engine?

Does anyone know how to fix this view?

Best regards!

[Robin W]

usually bbpress just uses the gravatar avatar

[9nty]

I’m using the Vikinger theme for my WordPress website I’m not too sure I have bbPress enabled so maybe that allows users to upload their avatars apart from that I’m not sure.

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

[enkoes]

Hi Robin, after spent some time trying to understand the codes, I tried and finally got the results that I wanted.

For loop-topics.php,
I change:

<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"><?php bbp_show_lead_topic()
				? esc_html_e( 'Replies', 'bbpress' )
				: esc_html_e( 'Posts',   'bbpress' );
			?></li>

to:
<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"><?php esc_html_e( 'Replies', 'bbpress' ); ?></li>

and for loop-single-topic.php,
I change:
<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"><?php bbp_show_lead_topic() ? bbp_topic_reply_count() : bbp_topic_post_count(); ?></li>
to:
<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"><?php bbp_topic_reply_count(); ?></li>

Since I don’t have any knowledge about PHP codes, I’m not sure what I did is correct or not, anyway at least work on my browser.

Regards

I need help installing a forum to my site

Worpress: Current version: 6.1.1
bbpress: Version 2.6.9

I am using IONOS as my webhost

I am totally lost and i need help I don’t see any tutorials am
looking but I don’t see.

[adabob]

After we have installed bbpress where are instructions for users who are using the forum to post?
Example they have questions and want to use the editor and read about all the functions. Where can we find anything like this?

Thank you

[Robin W]

the templates are in bbpress/default/bbpress

you would be looking at things starting loop-xx , so for instance if you wanted to change loop-single-reply.php …

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

transfer this to your pc and edit

and save

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

@verdantstudio

I did both debug mode within WordPress as well as the Site Health and Troubleshooting.

In Site Health and Troubleshooting I did just bbpress with the default wordpress theme – seems to be an issue in both cases.

I tried to comment out everything inbetween the before/after in the profile page and had the same result.

This had been working fine – it is something recent that caused it.

bbp style pack

lets you style your forums

you can also use the translations tab of this to change Posts to Replies

there is also

bbPress Styling Crib

which contains styling guides

With troubleshooting mode you mean debug mode? https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/debugging-in-wordpress/

That would be a good way to start yes, if you have a local or test setup in which you can reproduce the exact same error, I would try turning plugins off one by one there, to see if it is being caused by any of them.

Errors like these can have many causes but the template for this particular page is at
/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-profile.php

[sflwa]

I’m not sure how / where this might have broken – I know it was working.

If I click on the name of a user (example: https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/sflwa/)
On my site it is domain/users/NICENAME
All of the sudden the page just spins and spins and spins

If I put the site into troubleshooting mode – for users with only a few topics / replies I can get it to pull up but it seems like it is stuck in a loop as it just keeps repeating the profile information over and over and over.

Any thoughts as to what might be causing this or what page / file I need to check to debug it.
