What is name of this option ? I cannot find it.
I dont use plugin for visual editor, only manual code and media button is deactivated.
Preview even doesnt work for non-admins. As I see “detach” option in images, I suspect GD bbPress Tools-Attachments is making this problem.
Hey everyone,
I have had some success in integrating bbpress and wishlist, but a slight problem is that anyone without complete access cannot view the forum archives.
I am also working with wishlist members support and they’ve been helpful but have recommended I take this to you.
Everything is working as intended as long as there is direct links to the forums for the members. The forum archives is not working unless you have complete access to every membership level.
Here is a video detailing what is going on. http://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/coVOYReaR0 pw Success2015
I have been dealing with the same problem. No user, not even keymaster, can edit their own posts. I tried what you suggested, but still not working. What version of WordPress and bbPress are you using?
Thanks,
mux
My users login to bbpress via a login page with the shortcode, rather than via the sidebar widget. i’d like to redirect them to the forum or topic they came from when they clicked the login link, just as the sidebar widget does. But I don’t know how to make that work – at the moment it just redirects back to the login page after logging in.
Is there any way to achieve this?
Thanks
hey guys,
I have an external Frontpage, which is located under domain.at
My Blog is located under the domain.at/blog.
Now I want that the bbpress forum is located under domain.at/forum instead of domain.at/blog/…
What is the best way to reach this goal? Is it necessary to do this with .htaccess or is there an easier way?
I think it might be also possible to make the frontpage a custom page template in wordpress, and create a page post type based on it. Then I could make domain.at the site-root with my custom frontpage and user /blog and /forum.
Is there an other / better way?
Thanks!
bbpress 2.5.4 with WordPress 4.1
For a non-member of my web site and thus not logged in, they are able to see search results from bbPress from topics that are in forums marked as Private.
To be clear, I have all but one of my forums set as Private. The other one is set to Hidden. When I go to the forum front page I see a message “Oh bother! No forums were found here!”. Using the search bar above the forum (presumably default search) I am able to return results from content that is in the Private groups. The Hidden content is not returned. To make matters worse, not only are the topics from the Private forums returned in the search results, but the actual topic content is returned as well, so it is completely public.
I would like the textarea (in which I am typing this message tight now…) to be shown on top of the page. Before all the older entries… Since I am new to bbpress I don´t know where to start looking.
WP v 4.1
bbpress v 2.5.4
Hi all,
Just a question:
I use Kleo Template and bbpress as forum.
As of now, the layout is like the ordinary going through the forum.
Like this:
Forum Index –> Topics list –> Full topic/text with reply field below.
I would like to have it more like Facebook.
But I’d still need multiple forum IDs.
For example:
If I have a page with different ‘tabs’ (called perhaps: Forum1, Forum2 etc.) to show the contents of different forum-IDs, I’d like them to show the full topics for this specific forum.
AND it should have a reply function below each of these topics.
This is how Facebook is doing it, and it makes a very direct access to the topics and easy access to reply.
I’m not sure if this is possible, without the need to change alot of code?
Thanks.
I’ve installed the latest version of bbpress and WordPress, and am attempting to migrate my forum from XenForo using the built in migration tool. I am receiving the following:
No reply_to parents to convert
No replies to convert
No tags to convert
No super stickies to stick
No stickies to stick
No topics to convert
No forum parents to convert
No forums to convert
No passwords to clear
No users to convert
I’ve used my config.php file from XenForo to obtain the host, username, password, and dbname. I also used the prefix ‘xf_’.
Any ideas?
The “Edit” link is there in every post. For the test I just did the link takes me to the following address:
http://www.spatialhaze.com/wordpress/index.php/forums/topic/freqently-asked-questions/edit/
And the following error message is what pops up on the screen for every post I try to edit:
Not FoundIt looks like nothing was found at this location. Maybe try a search?
It’s like the the edit link is pointing to a place with no data.
I will go through the links you provided to see if there is something I missed. BTW, I have removed and reinstalled the bbPress plugin twice with the same results.
Thanks,
mux
do you see the edit link besides the reply link??
what happens exactly when you hit the edit link??
did you follow these guides
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/
codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/
also maybe re-installing bbpress and see if there could have been an error during installation.

I have tried as many of the proposed solutions as I could find in this forum, but still no solution. I have deactivated all plugins except bbpress and tried four different Themes, Twenty Twelve, Twenty Thirteen, Twenty Fourteen, and Twenty Fifteen. I also tried changing the default time for the “Disallow after editing” from 5 minutes to 99999 with no success. Even admin with keymaster privileges cannot edit own posts. Are there any other things I can try before giving up on bbPress? Or, is there another Forum plugin I can try that may have better success?
Thanks,
mux
you can contact bbPress reply by email’s plugin author here
http://tareq.wedevs.com/contact/
other than that you can post a job at jobs.wordpress.net and see if anyone will pick up creating your feature.
post a topic at the GD bbPress plugin support forums and see if they can help you

I this sentence i said you can do much with only CSS and styling. To “sell” bbPress to WP beginners.
WordPress has its own “demo” websites, all those nice and fancy themes around web. BbPress has it not.
this is the featured sites section on here bbpress.org/about/examples/
and maybe this site should show any heavily designed WordPress themes integrated with bbPress in the themes section of this site?? the section isn’t really being used anymore ,but it could be a cool place to show off cool themes. i think that would have to wait for the bbpress theme tag though??
There is a reason why WP holds so much of web, and bbPress is not in this league.
well ones a cms/blogging software and the other is a forum software.
alot of people would want to create a blog over a forum , a forum requires alot more responsibility to take of and handle.
@robin-w
I’m working on one now that adds some styling changes (the common ones asked for)
if you need anybody to test it out you can email me it if you want to.

@cyclesha
you could try the discussion settings that are compatible with bbPress for now.
Moderation and BlackListing
Another way to cheat a little is to make an actual page, call it yourdomain-forums
Then you could add the existing shortcode from BBpress like this
<h1>title of category 1</h1>
[bbp-single-forum id=XX]
<h1>title of category 2</h1>
[bbp-single-forum id=XX]
Then make a link in your menu to that page
I am doing it here

Today I’ve been working on trying to migrate from the Mingle forum to bbPress. I have managed to get the import utility to create names for each of the subforums that I had in Mingle, but none of the actual topics or posts have been imported. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks.
Problems with other forum scripts are (if we forget about WP integration for a moment) like this, and i have seen it more than often.
People come to forum, relax, discussing, forget about time. But they forget about main portal too. It doesnt exist for them. I have seen many popular and crowded forums and people behind main portal lose money, time, energy to write editorials and news. Nobody is reading this, nobody “knows” about portal when they are on forum. And all try to make other forum scripts look a like something near CMS are madness, better not to go this way.
Here you have old brother WordPress, so popular in the world. You discuss in the forum, suddenly sidebar widget display new article from portal, as it says “did you forget to read news”. Just one example of many of them.
All is here, all exist to make bbPress (or BuddyPress) most popular forum script. To follow steps of WordPress.
Smart core coders, wish exist, older brother WordPress is there to push bbPress in the front of other forum scripts.
I am not saying all this because of me. I have now so many (tested) snippets and tweaks i can make bbPress more advanced than phpBB3 forum. I am thankfull to core guys, and I am not complaining.
Integration (affinity better to say) with WP core is so amazing it just blow minds.
I am saying this because of core coders guys. It is pitty lose hours, days, weeks and last nobody or very few people use bbPress.
ok,
firstly if you just create a page for your forum and use the shortcode
[bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id] – Display a single forums topics. eg. [bbp-single-forum id=32]
then just that forum will be displayed.
to change the breadcrumb display – see
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
ok thanks for that
I’m just a humble bbpress user who’s written some plugins.
I’m working on one now that adds some styling changes (the common ones asked for)
I read somwehere (or was it for BuddyPress, but it is the same logic), that you avoid new options and functions in core to reduce support. It is OK and understandable.
I this sentence i said you can do much with only CSS and styling. To “sell” bbPress to WP beginners.
It is very behind other forum software right now.
WordPress has its own “demo” websites, all those nice and fancy themes around web. BbPress has it not.
