Hello, I have been looking around internet for better forum plugin, personally I like bbPress and saw how to work on multiple database but eventually came to know that was bbPress standalone installation , having bb-config.php and now standalone version stopped, just plugin integration.
I want to keep website and forum on separate database, is it possible in plugin version of bbPress?
forum is limited to Question/Answer (something like FAQ), hardly would have discussion board..

[Robin W]

probably better to put this to the auto linker plugin author and tell them that bbpress uses custom post types of Forums, Topics, and Replies.

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.

Hi and thanks for your reply but I have a parent theme and can not create a child theme.
Can I paste this code into a parent theme and if yes, at what function file?
There are plenty into the dashboard.There is bbpress-functions, there is theme functions, functionsbu.php. Can you pls specify? I would deeply appreciate this!

Hello!

Sorry for the delay in responding …

I tried to disable all plugins except bbPress and I already see “forums” in dashboard! After I returned to reactivate all the plugins one by one and now if I see “forums” with the same plugins activated before!

Thank you very much!

I just installed bbpress 2.5.4 on WordPress 4.1, on two different websites.

On my test site, everything is working as expected, but on my live site (which has SSL) every time I try to access the default https://mysite.com/forums/ I get the following error:

Fatal error: ob_end_flush(): Cannot use output buffering in output buffering display handlers in /homepages/wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3269

I can create a new page with a different name than “forums” and use the shortcode successfully, but the breadcrumbs have a direct link to the “/forums” and it gives the same error.

Any idea what may be going on?

Thanks!

Hello.
I seem to have a problem with creating new topic. When i click the “submit” button, it tries to redirect to the topic for editing (I guess?), but then it get stuck in redirection loop and I get an error.
The problem occurs when I put permalinks on “Pretty Links”. When I change back to default it stops happening.

The page that I use for the forum is the following: http://forum-dati.co.il/%D7%A4%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%95%D7%9D/%D7%A4%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%95%D7%9D/

Everything is in Hebrew, so if you need any translation just say 🙂

I use wordpress v4.1 and bbpress v2.5.4
I also use multisite

Thank you very much

Good Morning,

we have our forum and have installed to another question: http://www.job-hilfe.de/forums/

I would like to automatically track certain words on the forum link – currently I use SEO AUTO LINKER. Thus, the link works within the blog, but unfortunately not in the forum. Is there a way or a trick on how to automatically words on the forum can link?

[Robkk]

@j0n4h

oh sorry for the late reply, try to keep the number of links to 1 or 2 in your topic next time , the spam prevention measure bbPress did could be stopping it if you posted more than the minimum amount of links.

[Robkk]

@j0n4h

if avada came with a bbpress.css file already in try to follow the same file hiearchy.

other than that it should be wp-content>avada-childtheme>css>bbpress.css

[Robkk]

Where can I find a plugin like http://jobs.wordpress.net?

you might be able to do it with bbPress , i suggest you post a job over there at the site to get that kind of custom development.

I max my cell it needs

what?

[Robkk]

use this plugin

If I just install BBPress, but I not activated it, I have this message on my console admin :

Notice: has_cap est appelé avec un argument qui est déprécié depuis la version 2.0 ! L’utilisation des niveaux d’utilisateur par les extensions et thèmes est désormais interdite. Utiliser les rôles et capacités à la place. in /var/www/virtual/xy.com/htdocs/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3495

By Google translate :

Notice: has_cap is called with an argument that is deprecated since version 2.0 ! The use of user levels by extensions and themes is now banned. Use roles and capabilities instead. in /var/www/virtual/xy.com/htdocs/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3495

I’m on WP 4.1

Tks for your help.

Like many plugins the documentation is not great, and as a humble user I have added to it as I have learnt, a good deal of the documentation is mine.

bbpress is a complex plugin, and I sympathise that it is not great to grasp.

With templates, all functions are written to allow you to filter what is there, this is a standard wordpress/php process, so you’re sort of expected to know about it as part of wordpress! I did try to explain it in

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – part 5

you can filter many bbpress functions using ‘parse args’ capability – a standard wordpress technique or just filter the whole function, you’ll see a return apply_filters in all template functions and this is the hook that you use.

so for you you could us the code in your other post

Display the last topic updated in the forums loop

If you’d like to help with documentation, just find where something is poor and write what you think it needs changing to, it is newcomers like you that can really help improve what is there

try

bbPress Styling Crib

[Robin W]

just use shortcodes

in particular

Hello I am making a bbpress forum site. How can I make my forums and categories as child pages or sub pages.

Thank you.

Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init().

I have been getting this message from 2 years ago and I have been reading all the related posts and Q&As from time to time, but it seems that this problem is not resolved yet. I sure that this is a bbPress issue or the issue of Customize template/function for wordpress. Because I have tested with no plugin, so it’s not the case of conflicting plugin and I used WordPress default themes(Twenty Fourteen & Twenty Fifteen).
My wordpress version is 4.1 & my bbpress version is 2.5.4.

The most important thing is that message is only shown on the admin’s ‘Customize‘ page.
I’m developing my own theme, so I want to fix it without disabling WP_DEBUG config.

I am desperate: I want to show last posts on forum index and not last posters

[Robin W]

put this in your functions file

function rw_custom_freshness_link( $forum_id = 0 ) {
		$forum_id  = bbp_get_forum_id( $forum_id );
		$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_active_id( $forum_id );
		$link_url  = $title = '';

		if ( empty( $active_id ) )
			$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_id( $forum_id );

		if ( empty( $active_id ) )
			$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_id( $forum_id );

		if ( bbp_is_topic( $active_id ) ) {
			$link_url = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_permalink( $forum_id );
			$title    = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_title( $forum_id );
		} elseif ( bbp_is_reply( $active_id ) ) {
			$link_url = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_url( $forum_id );
			$title    = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_title( $forum_id );
		}

		$time_since = bbp_get_forum_last_active_time( $forum_id );

		if ( !empty( $time_since ) && !empty( $link_url ) )
			$anchor = '<a href="' . esc_url( $link_url ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( $title ) . '">' . esc_attr( $title ) . '</a>';
		else
			$anchor = esc_html__( 'No Topics', 'bbpress' );

		return apply_filters( 'rw_get_forum_freshness_link', $anchor, $forum_id, $time_since, $link_url, $title, $active_id );
	}
	
	add_filter('bbp_get_forum_freshness_link', 'rw_custom_freshness_link' );
