Not quite sure how this would be achieved.

In essence you either create a post or you create a topic.

A post is displayed using your theme’s layout, a forum topic using bbpress’s templates, so essentially they are incompatible unless you add extensive coding to your theme to recognise and display.

If it is not possible can you tell me how to use default taxonomy (categories) with forum? I want to store some topics in these default WordPress category.

Sorry I don’t understand this question – please explain further

Wordpress Version: 4.1
Latest bbpress version
website: http://www.gizmoids.com

I want to show my forum topics as post on my website. Not all, jest some of them which I will choose.
Can I do this with bbpress? how?

If it is not possible can you tell me how to use default taxonomy (categories) with forum? I want to store some topics in these default WordPress category.

Thank You

Hi,

When I receive an email notification, if I’m logged in and I click the link it takes me directly to the thread/post in question.

However if I’m not logged in I simply get:

Sorry, the page your requested could not be found, or no longer exists.

Running WordPress 4.1 and bbpress 2.5.4

I have tested with the bundled themes and the issue persists.

Greetings to bbPress Scientists and Engineers,

I want to restrict users to add an external link before a define number of topics and/or posts created.

In other words:
Allow a user to put external link in topics or posts only after he/she created some number of (say 20) topics or posts.

This will be a revolution in bbPress if we could do this. It will help to stop spamming to a great level. And vBulletin and others must be worried about it.

i ask theme ? Thank you

[jeremymh]

I have made a hidden forum that is closed and hidden with intentions of having my staff only see this forum page itself. Is there a way or a process I need to make a group or send invites to people so they can see this or is it not possible with BBpress? Need some assistance with this asap as I am trying to get my group of writers into this special forum page.

Please advise.

Thanks!

[eVersatile]

I have asked in the buddypress forum and have not came up with an answer. Since bbPress is where the forum comes from I figured someone would be of better assistance here.
Yes, I have tried the .pot file and it had no effect.

Hi Have tried to remove the link from username with below code but when i use it, the avatar reappears which i managed to get rid of – is there another workaround?

add_filter(‘bbp_before_get_breadcrumb_parse_args’, ‘mycustom_breadcrumb_options’);
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_author_link’, ‘remove_author_links’, 10, 2);
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_reply_author_link’, ‘remove_author_links’, 10, 2);
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_topic_author_link’, ‘remove_author_links’, 10, 2);
function remove_author_links($author_link, $args) {
$author_link = preg_replace(array(‘{<a[^>]*>}’,'{}’), array(” “), $author_link);
return $author_link;
}

thanks in advance

Hi,

I’m having an issue with bb slides. On the desktop and at the back end it’s linking correctly but on mobile it links to brick-work.org/bb-slides/linkaddress. It only does this for the first slide, not the others which links correctly.

My wordpress version is 4.1, my bbpress version is 2.5.4 and my website is http://www.brick-work.org

Thanks in advance for any help!

tried to create a file, save the file in my pc then upload the file to each of the templates, themes under /themes/optimizePressTheme/ but no luck..

you should only do this once so that you have

wp-content/themes/optimizePressTheme/bbpress.php

[Robin W]

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

Then change line 50 of this file from

<?php bbp_list_forums(); ?>

to

<?php //bbp_list_forums(); ?>

This will, stop it listing sub forums.

Come back if that’s not what you wanted

[Robin W]

@kmal91 – sorry but unless you find someone who has spent time with wishlist, I think you will struggle to get help.

For me to fix I’d need to spend at least 1/2 day installing and understanding wishlist.

But two thoughts

1. As a quick Q – if most/many of your forums are restricted, why do you need a link to the forum archive?

2. If you took bbpress out of wishlist, you could probably achieve the forum restriction using

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

You’d need to set up somne groups to mirror wishlist, but it might be an effective solution.

Hi,

I am using Mesocolumn theme as it claims it is bbPress compatible.

I am having issues with the forum category widget. I have defined 4 categories but none appears in the widget.

Also, how do I add first-time bbPress registration to my forum page.

The link to my site is : http://www.ckingsensors.com/ckingforums/

I am using WP 4.1 and the latest bbPress version.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jay

Question: I have the same issue, but I am using OptimizePress, and the themes folder has many subfolder, where to upload that bbpress.php?

I tried to create a file, save the file in my pc then upload the file to each of the templates, themes under /themes/optimizePressTheme/ but no luck..

Thank you and hoping for a reply.

After installing BBPress nothing was working, I could see a list of forums if I went to /forums/ but nothing appeared to create a new forum or post, and no form appeared to enter a reply. I rebuilt the pages using the shortcodes and this worked great, but if I click “Edit” on a reply I get a page with no content.

Here is the code I am using in my main template to make the BBPress items show up:

				<?php if (is_bbpress()) : ?>
				<section id="content" class="grid-block"><h3 class="page-subtitle"><?php echo $this['config']->get('Subtitle'); ?></h3>
				<?php 
				if(!is_user_logged_in())
				{
				    echo do_shortcode("[bbp-login]"); 
				} else {
				echo 'bbpress page';
				$forum_id = get_the_ID();

				if( get_post_type( $forum_id ) == 'page')
				{
					echo do_shortcode("[bbp-forum-index]");
				}
				echo do_shortcode("[bbp-single-forum id=" . $forum_id . "]"); 
				echo do_shortcode("[bbp-single-topic id=" . $forum_id . "]"); 
		
				}
				?>

I can’t find a shortcode for the reply edit form. How can I made the reply edit form appear on a page?

Also none of the forms worked until I added this to the functions.php:

add_filter( 'bbp_verify_nonce_request_url', 'my_bbp_verify_nonce_request_url', 999, 1 );
function my_bbp_verify_nonce_request_url( $requested_url )
{
    return 'http://localhost:8088/mySite/' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
}

I am using a woo-theme with their warp system, I think it does not work well with bbpress.

Please, how can I made the edit form appear? There appears to be no shortcode for that.

Hi. i want to add custom html under the keymaster’s name in his reply.
My html is: <p class="supportteam">I im in supporting group</p>

I have all bbpress’s files in my theme and think that the loop-single-reply.php should be modify but can’t find the correct solution to do it.
Here is my purpose: http://i.cubeupload.com/ZSr3pR.png
my loop-single-reply.php :

<div id="post-<?php bbp_reply_id(); ?>" <?php bbp_reply_class(); ?>>
	<div class="bbp-reply-author">
		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_author_details' ); ?>
		<?php bbp_reply_author_link( array( 'type' => 'avatar', 'show_role' => false ) ); ?>
		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details' ); ?>
	</div><!-- .bbp-reply-author -->
    <div class="bbp-meta">  
    <?php bbp_reply_author_link( array( 'type' => 'name', 'show_role' => false ) ); ?>   
    " title="<?php bbp_reply_title(); ?>" class="bbp-reply-permalink"><span class="bbp-reply-post-date"><?php bbp_reply_post_date(); ?></span>
   <!--HERE IS a place for my new code -->
    </div>
	<div class="bbp-reply-content">
		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_content' ); ?>
		<?php bbp_reply_content(); ?>
		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_content' ); ?>
	</div><!-- .bbp-reply-content -->
    <?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_admin_links' ); ?>
		<?php 
		$args = array (
			'id'     => 0,
			'before' => '<span class="bbp-admin-links">',
			'after'  => '</span>',
			'sep'    => ' / ',
			'links'  => array()
		);
		bbp_reply_admin_links( $args ); ?>
		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_admin_links' ); ?>
</div><!-- #post-<?php bbp_reply_id(); ?> -->

I tried this code but it does not work:


<?php
$role=bbp_get_reply_author_role();
if($role == 'keymaster'){echo '<p class=="supportteam">I im in supporting group</p>';}
?>


It not show anythings!
Can you help me to correct this code?
When i use this:

$role=bbp_get_reply_author_role();
echo $role;

it print reply author’s role.

Ok I ave my WordPress 4.1 running Twenty Fourteen theme and I just downloaded bbpress.

My problem is that i cannot get the link to the forums to display. I never had this problem with simple press.

Anyway I even tried using the exact slug address and it just goes right back to my blogs fromt page and never gets to the forum. I am at a loss here I think what it told me was the address should be http://linksareblue.com/forums/forum/

That again just leads me back to the main blog page.

I am at a total loss here so any help would be appreciated.

Oh yeah i created 4 new forums there and cannot get any of them to display and yes i did publish them not just preview — however they dont even come up under preview.

Any help would be appreciated. I have 4 more sites to put up the same way and i am at a standstill until i get this all figured out.

Hello,

I’m using Gonzo theme with wordpress 4.1 and bbpress 2.5.4

Problem is;

Everything works fine except the frontend side. It is not possible to login with either owner account or a participator account, noone can create a new topic.

I can reply to opened topics, do anything on backend side however creating new topics is my problem.

I do not use any plugins related with roles or bbpress.

I’ve tried eliminating every plugin but it’s not related with it.

Do you have any suggestions for a solution?

Thank you

How do I install this theme into bbPress?

[cebutours]

subscribing also to this.. i got a problem displaying user profile with Optimizepress theme it is using the Op2 css and not the bbpress css..

[cebutours]

I have the same problem. The CSS of the theme is over writing the css of the bbpress. I installed the bbpress plugin in an site using OptimizePress..

You may have better luck starting your own thread on this one. I had a similar problem, in that users see notifications (the little icon on the wordpress nav bar) but never get an email. I will mention that if you look closely at the ticket referenced and if you do have access to the code yourself you can find the line to examine in bbpress\includes\common\functions.php -> Line 1066 and roughly 1106. My smtp provider was not liking the noreply email address that was being constructed as the sender. I changed the lines I mention to a valid email address and everything started to work. Also worth mentioning, I am using WP Mail SMTP.

Having a frustrating time moving from SP. This is what I did and what happened:

Deactivated SP v5.4
Installed bbPress
Ran Tools > Forums > Import Forums
Fill in all DB info
Checked Convert Users
Start

Before, there were about 300 users
3 hours later bbPress was still converting. Something.
I clicked back to the WP Dashboard, waited a moment, went back to Tools > Forums > Import Forums and it appeared done – there was no indication of activity.

Went to Dashboard > Forums > All Forums
All I see are 2 forums, look like bbPress default topics.

Went to Dashboard > Users

Holy! Went from 300 users to 15,871!

So basically, all the import did was an epic bloat of users and absolutely nothing else.

Any idea what I did wrong?
