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

[Sebastian]

@Robkk: Yes! Comments work fine also at the LearnDash Course Pages. And I used the bbpress integration for learn dash – doesn’t change anything.

I tried your settings and others too, but whatever I adjust after saving the page it automatic deselects the field “Use a bbPress forum topic for comment on this post”.

I think I will forward this issue to the learn dash support.

Thanks for your help!

The link you gave

Sidebar on left for Forums, then right for Forum and Topic – Why?

had this as his solution

Just swap the floating elements from left to right, where content becomes right and sidebar becomes left. Remember to end with the !important to override any other CSS. Code is thus:

.bbpress.single-forum #main #content {float:right!important;}
.bbpress.single-forum #main #sidebar {float:left!important;}
.bbpress.single-topic #main #content {float:right!important;}
.bbpress.single-topic #main #sidebar {float:left!important;}

You need to put the code in your style.css

yes

with page.php and single.php

renaming into:

plugin-bbpress.php and bbpress.php

I am using WP 4.1.1 with HeatMap AdAptive theme and bbpress 2.5.4
I have setup bbpress and all seems to be working, the problem is when a user trys to register they get taken to a 401 page Authorization Required.

Your help is very much appreciated.

After some investigation, it appears my mailing provider (SendGrid) warns against using “noreply@yourdomain.com” as the sending email for many reasons and will drop your email if you do so. Apparently I missed this important point while setting up the service. I looked though the logs and found a bunch of these:

No wonder no one was getting their notifications!

Temporary fix (Warning! Hacking core files is bad, this is only for the desperate, like me, and will break as soon as you update the plugin):

“noreply@…” This is the default that bbPress uses to send its notifications from. I simply created a new email for the forums, “forums@mydomain.com” and set that as the “noreply” email address in bbpress/includes/common/functions.php on lines 1065 and 1205. everything is working fine now. I realize this might not be the solution for everyone as other people in this thread might not be having the same issues as me, and it is certainly not a permanent fix, but at least next week or so the users on my site will be receiving their emails while I investigate this further.

[skylarmb]

This is happening to me as well. If I try to use any sort of SMTP mailing plugin, no notifications are sent from bbPress. Disabling SMTP fixes it, but that is hardly a solution. I will be following this topic closely for a solution.

bbPress: 2.5.4
Wordpress: 4.1
Email plugin: SendGrid

Hello Robin,

doesn’t work. It seems the same problem had this guy:

Sidebar on left for Forums, then right for Forum and Topic – Why?

The instruction didn’t work in his case also. Any other idea?

[Robin W]

I hope the theme authors read this.

In the meantime either add it manually and keep a note

or add this to your functions file

//This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
	if ( $translated_text == 'old text' ) {
	$translated_text = 'new text';
	}
	return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );

just put the old and new words to change ‘old test’ and ‘new text’

[Robin W]

you’d add this code in the theme function`’s files

Hello!
I would like to know if you know about any way i could give my user a rank like ‘boss’ and if possible a picture connected to the rank(that are displaying in the forum near the person’s name for example when one submits a reply)
The important thing here would be to have ranks set by me,the administrator, without any pointing system and stuff, just manually
Thanks, Daniel

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

Dear People,

I just installed bbpress and im facing some problems. I did install it before but this time im facing various problems. First of all the permalinks are pretty strange and i dont know how to fit it. My second problem is the forum main page. I created my main forum and added some topics as admin. However the topics i made are not on the forum page, but i did link them to eachother.

Maybe someone can take a look and help me further

Hello,

I need to translate this line into my language:

“ERROR: Your topic needs a title.”

I have the latest bbpress installed, but the .POT file is missing this line. Can you help?

Thanks

[SaumyaShrivastava]

Thanks Mike for sharing your post and solving the bug as well. But, I also think, you need to approach bbpress tools plugin author.

[Robkk]

contact the gd bbpress tools plugin author

common issue with yoast breadcrumbs.

/**
 * Filter to call default bbPress breadcrumbs
 */
add_filter( 'bbp_get_breadcrumb', 'myfix_bbp_get_breadcrumb', 1, 3 );
function myfix_bbp_get_breadcrumb($trail, $crumbs, $r){
        // This will remove wordpress-seo filter to disable bbPress breadcrums by default
        remove_all_filters("bbp_get_breadcrumb",10);
        return $trail;
}

use this to enable bbPress breadcrumbs

When I installed BBpress the menu items in the admin navigation area did not show up. After turning off the plugins one at a time they show up. The plugin is “Constant Contact Plugin for WordPress” Is their any known fix for 2 plugins that are in conflict like what I am experiencing in this situation?
