Hi, I have a wordpress page for my company – http://www.honeymoontourkerala.wordpress.com and would like to know how to integrate the same with bbpress? What are the advantages in doing so? As desired, my main webpage is http://www.honeymoontourskerala.com

Please suggest options/advantages.

Thanks JK

Hi

My issue is when a registered user clicks on open forum. all the topics are displayed, but when the user clicks on one of the topics they are taken directly to a reply page – without showing the actual topic.

Why do widgets have not enclosing container around them?

Here is the Widgets for recent replies I was expecting a <div class="bbpress-widget-recent">code</div> or at least a <h1></h1> around the title

"Recente Reacties"

I’m calling a login form by [bbp-login]
As I understand it’s using a wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-user-login.php
I want to rename “Username” label and remove “:”
But my changes don’t appear on site. It seems that [bbp-login] uses a different template?

Hi there,

Ive been searching all over for a solution to this problem and have tried extensively myself to solve it, but to no avail. Please if someone could offer some guidance i would really appreciate it.

So on the forum root if one display the topics directly, I would need the option allow the user to sort the topics alphabetically or by date. Perhaps this should be considered a default feature in bbpress?

Anyways, I realise that the ‘bbp_has_topics’ function in includes>topics>template.php needs to be hooked into and changed, but how to do that I dont know.

Any support would be greatly appreciated.

Good evening everyone.
I have been trying to figure out how to add a action to add to my bbpress instance.
For the form_topic.php file. I would like to add an section that allows any to choose the visibility of the topic. i.e.; Public, Hidden.
I would also like to add an action to user_topics_created.php which allows the user to view both public and hidden topics which they created.
Currently I have it set up for the two sections to show hidden or private topics. though I am at a lose when it comes to choosing the visibility and showing topics started by visibility

I was trying to change the CSS file to make the font more readable on my forums. I messed up the file and lost my original. Could someone post some code I could copy that is either the original bbpress.css file or one modified to have good readable font? Thanks for any help

I have isolated the exact post content that causes the BBCode::Parse to hang. I can’t post the original content, but I made this version replacing the text with lorem ipsum, and it also hangs:

$field =<<<EOD
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla dictum ligula sit amet massa condimentum gravida. Quisque qutris imgdper diet dolor. Nulla quis ante id elit lacinia commodo. Maecenas convallis felis at libero fringilla, feiat.<br><br><br><i><b>[EDIT: Aenean aliquet velit est, ac sodales "tortyor aliquoam vitae" urna sit amet dui rutr "OpenGL Uiot" Tenentis in faucibus orci luctus et ultrices posuere cubilia Curae Donec fringilla velit non too much
EOD;

If you remove the words “too much” from the end then it parses ok.

This is the full code that I put into a theme page template to run this test in isolation:

echo "<h2>Begin the parser test</h2>";

require_once( WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/bbpress/bbpress.php' );

$field =<<<EOD
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla dictum ligula sit amet massa condimentum gravida. Quisque qutris imgdper diet dolor. Nulla quis ante id elit lacinia commodo. Maecenas convallis felis at libero fringilla, feiat.<br><br><br><i><b>[EDIT: Aenean aliquet velit est, ac sodales "tortyor aliquoam vitae" urna sit amet dui rutr "OpenGL Uiot" Tenentis in faucibus orci luctus et ultrices posuere cubilia Curae Donec fringilla velit non too much
EOD;

require_once( bbpress()->includes_dir . 'admin/parser.php' );
$bbcode = BBCode::getInstance();
echo  html_entity_decode( $bbcode->Parse( $field ) );

Hi guys, so ive followed this function from the bbpress codex webpage…

// Filter wp_nav_menu() to add profile link
add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_items’, ‘my_nav_menu_profile_link’ );
function my_nav_menu_profile_link($menu) {
if (!is_user_logged_in())
return $menu;
else
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$user=$current_user->display_name;
$profilelink = ‘

@andreippo – Contact Robin. He will set you strait.

I can only suggest that you go back to

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.

and then come back.

Hi, I’m trying to import a Vanilla forum db into my new BBPress install (2.5.4 on WP 4.0.1) and it silently hangs during the conversion of topics.

I’ve debugged the code and I suspect it’s getting stuck when it tries to parse the HTML into BBPress. Is this a known issue at all? Is there something I can do to prep the incoming data perhaps?

I’m open to hacking the core of the importer here, I only need to get it working once.

[Matt]

Hi,

This issue has been resolved. bbPress works perfectly with Striking Multiflex.

Thanks,

TL;DR How do I make the forum open so everyone can read an view topics without being logged in?

Im developing a forum with BBpress, but im having trouble viewing topic when im not logged in. I develop with two browsers open one logged in to the wp-admin and one for viewing without being logged in and I can view everything except when I go in to a topic to view the comments. How can I make the forum open for everyone to view, but only logged in users can comment?

Fresh install of the latest bbpress and wordpress 4.1 – theme powermag 1.8.0

When someone posts, the first post layout is fine. Any reply after though, the avatar and name is at the bottom of the screen?

http://www.wisbechtownfc.co.uk/forums/topic/wednesday-at-histon/

I checked it with live preview on twentyfifteen and its fine, perhaps I can override the them of just the forum ?

any help would be appreciated

[Deleyna]

Okay, I broke it.

I imported a phpbb forum into bbpress. Nice. We had a number of older threads with a post at the beginning and a bunch of replies. I used a conversion tool to convert the topics to posts — so the initial topic of each thread is now converted to a post.

For this site, this was powerful good. Magic. Yay…

Except that now the users wonder what happened to all of those replies. We’re using a plugin that uses bbpress to integrate the comments on the posts…so, now having their cake, they want to eat it, too.

I can see in the back end that the replies are still all there. I’ve picked at a couple and moved and merged and fiddled and got them where I wanted them. Generated a mismatch warning at one point, but it all connected back up.

But the process is insanely slow.

I used the auto-create to create new topics in the forum for each of the posts (converted topics). So each of the ones I converted to a post now HAS a master topic in the forum, but the replies aren’t attached.

They aren’t visible on the front end, either.

In retrospect, this was pretty stupid. Looking at about 800 replies. My current workflow takes me around 15 minutes to reattach one. Not going to happen.

Thoughts?

[Robkk]

ok i think i found it this is whats causing the space on your other pages an not on the forum archive

it has this code close to the header, while on the bbPress forum archive doesnt

<div class=”container-inner”>

<p class=”site-title”>SDGR.pl</p>
`
<p class=”site-description”></p>

<div id=”wpai_widget-11″ class=”widget widget_wpai_widget”>
<div style=”display: table; margin: 20px auto;”>

[Robkk]

if you haven’t already create a bbpress.php file and put it in a bbpress folder in your child theme and see if this fixes your issue.

About one week ago, my bbPress forum stopped working. I get a 404 when trying to access the root folder of the forum. When I try to follow links to topics, they do work. But replying or navigating to the root via links does not work.

I have bbPress 2.5.4 and WordPress 4.1

How do I trouble shoot this?

[Robkk]

in your child theme create a folder called bbpress (unless you already have one)

use FTP by using software like Filezilla on your CPU or upload the file in the bbpress folder in your hosts file manager

to know what FTP is and how to use it go to the What is FTP and how do I access it? section in this document https://codex.bbpress.org/functions-files-and-child-themes-explained/

ok, I’ve had a detailed look, and there is no simple filter, so we just copy the function, rename it, and the hook back

so post this in your functions file

@dingzj

its tricky to solve issues in premium themes.

first contact your theme authors support.

see if its only that themes issue

see if its a plugin issue , deactivate every plugin but bbPress if that solves it reactivate each one and try to pinpoint the one causing the issue.

if you havent created a bbpress.php file see if creating one fixes the issue.

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/

[Robkk]

@julianms so your issue is its hard to customize the Markdown plugin??

and you tried to see if you could customize it in the bbPress templates??

and you want to use Latex language in bbPress , i can test out some plugins in a minute and see how that works out.

but yeah the first two questions i’m not sure i had right it was pretty hard following your reply, you put a lot of personality in it.

[Robkk]

download this .zip , extract the file loop-forums.php and copy it into a folder called bbpress in your child theme
