your issue very well might be the same as the trac tickets you posted

but i cant confirm.

i suggest you contact the bbPress plugin developers in slack.

@andrew55

sorry i made a typo

i meant to say

All i can recommend now is put all your data back from aMember all to your phpbb installation and just import phpbb cleanly into bbPress.

[Robkk]

bbPress i think will have @mentions in a future release, but for now you can use BuddPress’s own scripts for bbPress using this function.

add it to your child theme functions.php or a functionality plugin

function custom_bbpress_maybe_load_mentions_scripts( $retval = false ) {
	if ( function_exists( 'bbpress' ) && is_bbpress() ) {
		$retval = true;
	}
 
	return $retval;
}
add_filter( 'bp_activity_maybe_load_mentions_scripts', 'custom_bbpress_maybe_load_mentions_scripts' );

its old but there is this

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-ignore-user/

[joym]

Is this not a standard feature in bbpress? Some people don’t get along and their user experience would be better if they had the ability to block another member. Can anyone help with this? Thank you.

I appreciate that, but I don’t have FTP access. Someone asked me to put a forum on their site. It’s not my site and they don’t particularly want me messing anything up that currently works. They wanted to stick with WordPress, so bbpress made sense, but it isn’t working.

[joym]

Hi, you’ve done a very nice job with your site! Since you seem like you’ve figured a lot out I thought I would ask about a block/ignore feature. I don’t believe it’s in the bbpress package, would this be something you could help with? Thank you.

[Robin W]

ok, suggest you create a test site and try to fix there

Hi –

I just installed my first attempt at bbpress and nothing is showing up in the dashboard menu. There is no forum option, no tools and no options under settings. My site role is listed as “Administrator”, secondary and forum roles as “Keymaster”.

It will be complicated to disable all of the plugins or install TwentyThirteen. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what the problem might be? WordPress 4.1.1 & bbpress 2.5.6, running Bolid Theme (Is that known to have a conflict). Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone. I’m new to bbpress. I have both bbpress and buddypress installed. In bbpress the @mentions feature doesn’t create the popup screen. I’m confused as to where the notifications are for a mention as well. Can anyone help me understand the way this works or how it should work?

Thank you.

[andrew55]

Robin W – thank you. Now it makes sense why there is no styling only on that link.

I found the setting in your plugin to disable it. BTW, you plugin is awesome. bbpress wouldn’t work for us without it.

I have it on my list of plugins to donate to.

Thanks again.

[Robin W]

ok, give us a chance to help you.

1.How is this related to bbpress?
2. What exactly are you doing to add them manually?

[Robin W]

you could put the following at the bottom of your style.css

.bbps-post-count {
display: none !important;
}

That should hide it.

Functions files and child themes – explained !

Thanks for the reply!

The duplicate text I’m talking about that I want to remove is the bbpress default post count text (which counts posts in a specific topic). I only want it to show the text from bbp topic count.

An example can be seen at: http://flyfisherscorner.com/topic/lets-get-the-conversation-going-where-are-you-from/

I want to remove the “Post Count: 1” generated by default and keep the “Total Posts: #”

Thanks again!

I’m using WordPress 4.1.1 on twentyfifteen them, and bbpress 2.5.6

I’ve created a test forum called ‘A completely spurious forum’ which is set to ‘private’. But when I go there as a logged in user, the heading of the forum is ‘Private: Private: A completely spurious forum’. Where did the two ‘privates’ come from and how do I get rid of them?

I’m running a copy of the website on my laptop (Mac OS X Yosemite, Apache, PHP, MySQL) without a persistent caching plugin. I don’t think logged in users have anything to do with this problem, because we’re talking about the WordPress/bbPress internal caching functions (WP Object Cache).

I’ve also slightly modified the bbp_forum_query_last_reply_id function to accept the value of 0 and run the query and then the wp_cache_get returns the correct value, but after reverting the changes wp_cache_get again returns 0. Do I need to clear the object cache (which is stored somewhere in the options table according to the WP Object Cache docs)?

[Nicolas Korobochkin]

bbPress 2.5.6 have some changes with this. Filter bbp_notify_subscribers renamed to bbp_notify_topic_subscribers.

[Robkk]

if you want use this plugin and provide use some information on how it does for your installation.

it requires Akismet, and basically it rescans all your topics and replies for spam.

the settings should be in tools > bbpress spam cleaner.

another tool that might help is wanguard.

Thanks @Robkk

@netweb said he would help as soon as he gets time and me some more resources to look at.

Digging into it more I think my class in not initiating correctly. “ExpressionEngine” is my class. I tried to echo anything after the Line 1709 “$converter = bbp_new_converter( $row->meta_value );” on /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/users/functions.php and it will not.

I confirm that my class name is correct in metadata and file name is the same.

So I think there is something wrong with my custom class converter but not sure how to tell what it is. I also tried commenting all the methods out one by one but still get same error.

[Robkk]

i say use <?php bbp_topic_reply_count() ?> and use math with it.

this code and where i think you want to modify it should be in loop-single-topic.php

make sure you copy it to your child theme into a folder called bbpress so an update doesnt lose your data.

[Robkk]

I dont know what to tell you??

do you want to still use the aMember plugin with bbPress and WordPress??

or you want to leave aMember??

All i can recommend now is put all your data back in aMember and just import phpbb cleanly into bbPress.

[Robkk]

There is not a finished PHPfusion importer from what i can see.

You might need to hire a developer to finish the existing PHP-Fusion importer for bbPress.

post a job here http://jobs.wordpress.net/

All else you can contact @netweb but im sure he will be very busy.

contact him on slack

Development

[Robkk]

use this CSS

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-reply-revision-log img.avatar,
 #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topic-revision-log img.avatar,
 #bbpress-forums div.bbp-template-notice img.avatar {
  display: none!important;
}

You can wait til the patch is added to core in a future release.
