@supremor

if you are using this it says it does have bbpress compatibility

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-math-captcha/

other than that i say ditch captchas altogether and use bruteprotect or jp protect when its fused with jetpack.

[Robkk]

yeah i am a little too

hmmm did you try bbpress by itself with no other plugins activated??

when you do try it by itself use a default theme like twentytwelve and see if we can find the issue.

you could get the product custom post type from woocommerce right??

[Robkk]

@robin-w

they mostly communicate on SLACK especially a meeting on Wednesdays.. they do creep the forums sometimes though

Any idea how I can get this to the attention of one of the authors

@katiekat

you could go on slack in the #bbpress channel and notify @jjj , there was another user who had an issue with subscriptions and he might look into it.

@robin-w you might as well check the slack channel too , especially on Wednesdays

It seems this is a known issue for WordPress when ordering by meta query. BBPress does this to order by “last active” which is the default (and in my case, desired).

Loading a forum index, on my site, takes about 20 seconds.

Here is the offending SQL:

    [9] => Array
        (
            [0] => SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS  wp_posts.ID FROM wp_posts  INNER JOIN wp_postmeta ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_postmeta.post_id) WHERE 1=1  AND wp_posts.post_parent = 9  AND wp_posts.post_type = 'topic' AND (wp_posts.post_status = 'publish' OR wp_posts.post_status = 'closed' OR wp_posts.post_status = 'private' OR wp_posts.post_status = 'hidden') AND (wp_postmeta.meta_key = '_bbp_last_active_time' ) GROUP BY wp_posts.ID ORDER BY wp_postmeta.meta_value DESC LIMIT 0, 15
            [1] => 19.448324918747
            [2] => require('wp-blog-header.php'), require_once('wp-includes/template-loader.php'), apply_filters('template_include'), call_user_func_array, bbp_template_include, apply_filters('bbp_template_include'), call_user_func_array, bbp_template_include_theme_compat, BBP_Shortcodes->display_forum, bbp_get_template_part, bbp_locate_template, load_template, require('/themes/xx/bbpress/content-single-forum.php'), bbp_has_topics, WP_Query->__construct, WP_Query->query, WP_Query->get_posts
        )

There’s a ticket which seems to be addressing my problem here: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1925

Unless I’m misreading it, the upshot is “We should probably be using post_modified on the topic instead of a meta value for ‘last activity’, so as to avoid using the JOIN… but we haven’t yet”.

So how do other sites do it? This one, for instance? Or WordPress.org? They have more posts than I do, but have got around this issue somehow.

Any solution?

Thanks.

[Adri Oosterwijk]

Thank you for your reply.

I installed through the wordpress installer ->from the plugins ->add new -> install.
Second attempt downloaded the zip, upload it to wordpress and activate it.

No functions added.

I’m using MAMP (for mac, obviously) with mySql and Apache.
Because I’m on a mac I never had to bother about drivers etc.

Other plugins are installing fine, except I had an issue in the last couple of days with the upgrade of WooCommerce in conjunction with the WPML plugin. That is solved. It was permalink related (content showed in English and was invisible in Dutch)

I have tried to remove the bbPress plugin and try to reinstall it to no avail.

I’m really puzzled here.

[Robkk]

i think this plugin will help , just create you custom messages sent to the user to include all the information you want.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-custom-reply-notifications/

[Robkk]

@crewockeez

its not a theme its a mock-up , never was a theme

it was a mockup for a website wanting suggestions for design changes from its forum users running bbPress standalone.

if you want someone to design it for you go to http://jobs.wordpress.net/

[Robkk]

tell me everything you did during installation
especially if you added some functions to try to make it work

what local development area software are you using??
did you have all the requirements to run this software, (i had a problem with wamp not to long ago and it was because of a driver was missing)

can you install any other plugins fine??

you can try reinstalling bbPress and see if there was a problem during the first installation

Hi,
I posted this question in Buddypress forum but no answer so I try here.
In the “Discussion Forums” WordPress-Page (Global Forum) only Admins can see the threads for Private Group Forums they are members in. Normal Users only see the threads from Public Groups, but not from Private Groups they are member in. They have to go to the group forum page to see threads.
Is there a way to see these private topics in Global Forum for group members ?
(I know there is no option for that, but I’d like to modify the core to add manually 2-3 user-IDs who are allowed to see ALL topics like an admin in the global forum, I just want to know which line/file I could modify )

Note: I didn’t activate the bbpress, I use buddypress forum.

Thank you.

[Joe Dostie]

So a little more investigating and I am finding this dose NOT appear to be related to bbPress, it looks like my BLOGS are having the same issue.

This appears to be related to the permalink structure.

I currently have it set to “Post Name”

I’m going to read up a little more on this and see if I can come to some understanding.

[Adri Oosterwijk]

After installation no items appears in WordPress Dashboard, no custom post types are created (as far as I can see)…… No menu item in Settings menu. Nothing happens. Why? What do I do wrong. I am trying for about a day now and I can’t figure it out…… pulling my hair out. Please help.

Worpdpress 4.1, bbPress latest, local site, developing mode1

[Joe Dostie]

Posting that code seems to have screwed up the thread…oh boy!

Well in any case I have been doing some testing.

It looks to me like bbPress is expecting to always be in the ROOT of the site.

I can make some adjustments but it then appears to mess something else up.

Take a look at this forum, I will leave it alone for a whole so you can look at it. But it explains the issue.

If I make the forum a child page bbPress will not create the forum with the parent page.

If you adjust the forum root setting to fix this, then bbPress takes over and the breadcrumb so the hierarchy is no longer correct.

At least that’s how it appears to me…

[kc9wwh]

lol

I went to Tools > Forums > Reset Forums, checked the 2 boxes and clicked Reset bbPress.

…I did try disabling and re-enabling the plug-in first, but that didn’t work.

Thanks again!

[Robin W]

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

[kc9wwh]

So I have no clue what was causing this….but, I went ahead and just reset bbPress and viola! Everything is working as it should! lol…wish I knew what caused it, but at least there were not that many posts yet.

[ryanlovestheory]

Hello,
I need help like something fierce.

I have installed the bbpress plugin and ensured that both the plugin and wordpress are both running the most updated versions.

The issue I am having is that registered users can not login on the front end of my wordpress site. The login widget looks like it functions properly, however, when users login with their credentials, it never actually logs them in on the front end. Please help me.

[Robin W]

ok, more drastic action required

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.

Sorry I’m running out of ideas beyond this … 🙂

[Robin W]

@vikingpoker

I have another plugin user with this issue, which helps as it should get me quicker to a solution.

But can I also ask your help?

Could I please ask you to do 2 things (or any combination will help me)

1. Could you try version 1.2 – I’m not sure if the latest version 1.3 is an issue

Therefore could you go to http://www.rewweb.co.uk/bbp-style-pack-1-2/ and follow the instructions.

If this works, then let me know, as it will eliminate much of my code as the issue.

2. If you are able to could you :
a. Deactivate all plugins except bbpress and bbp style pack and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error when my plugin is also active.
b. If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Then switch back to your normal theme and re-enable all plugins (except mine as this is causing the issue) and come back with the results

[paigedah]

forum can be found under forums: http://www.stardatesbahamasinternational.com

i cant figure out why it isnt formatted properly, can anyone help?

[vikingpoker]

bbPress, bbPress New UI, Black Studio TinyMCE Widget, BuddyPress, Contact Form 7, iFlyChat, Regenerate Thumbnails, Responsive Lightbox, Widget Logic, WP-PageNavi

Other than yours thats it.

[crewockeez]

i want theme bbpress in pic

[peter-hamilton]

I agree with you there, and I am hoping to improve where they failed

in the mean time, a shot of the BBPress forum index

[Robin W]

It was quicker to code it than describe it.

Basically I’ve created a new widget called (rew) Login Widget

Copy all the below into your functions file

You’ll see that all it required was taking out the label, and putting ‘placeholder’ into the input line

I even changed lost password into forgot your password !

The go into widgets and you’ll see the new widget (rew) Login Widget

enjoy !

Its weird…I can change permissions for Posts and Pages and they come through instantly…its just with bbPress that I am noticing issues.

Tomorrow I may just have to remove bbPress and try re-installing it and see what happens. Anyway, I’ll check back here tomorrow first.

[Robin W]

Come back if you rae still having problems tomorrow, but the code you posted works with bbpress !
