I would think that BuddyPress should be fine. But do you have any other plugins? If you have any more, try deactivating them all (bar bbPress and BuddyPress), seeing if the problem is still there and then reactivating them one by one to find the offender.
Still looking for someone who can do this (you alive, Stephen?) 😉
Most recent bbPress and WordPress users from one install to another all the while linking correct admins to their corresponding posts and making sure forums, topics, and replies all remain correctly linked despite conflicting post IDs with the install we’re importing into.
I’ve gotten my bbpress forum set up on my site and I need to somehow add a link back to the main forum page. Once users click on a individual topic to comment there is no easy link to get back to the main forum.
I figured I could somehow add a link into one of the .php templates but nothing I add to them seems to show up at all on site. If anyone can point me to the correct .php template to modify or if there is a simple setting to enable this I’d greatly appreciate it.
I’m on wordpress version 4.0 and bbpress version 2.5.4
Thanks,
bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes
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
I am getting this error.
[16-Oct-2014 11:17:02 UTC] PHP Notice: bbp_setup_current_user تمّ استدعائه بشكل غير صحيح.

bbPress Version 2.5.4
pleas help mee
I have insert
#bbpress-forums .bbp-topic-content p,
#bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content p {
font-size: 12px;
}
in bbpress.css but nothing has changed.
in the widget php file, but i couldn’t figure out how to remove the avatar. is there a simple way to do it?
Yes, line 807 says
$author_link = bbp_get_topic_author_link( array( ‘post_id’ => $topic_id, ‘type’ => ‘both’, ‘size’ => 14 ) );
The type can be ‘avatar’ for avatar or ‘name’ for just name, or ‘both’ to display both
So change this to ‘name’
Remember to make a not of changes to this file, as they may well be lost on bbpress upgrades, so you would need to go back in and reply them.
you should change it as per the previous post
bbPress Styling Crib
No. 5 is what you need to change, and the guide link at the top of the link above tells you how to do it.
I have bbpress installed on a WP multisite installation. Everything seems to be working very well except the ← Back to discussions link. It directs to the multisite home page. I have the forum displayed on a page named discussions with the short code. I have the slug in the forum settings set to discussions. I have the permalinks set to post name. I for the life of can’t seem to get the link to work correctly.

Please help…
if I change bbPress theme fits the style of the theme, with no ueman. What should I change? Thanks
Shoot.
The problem is, I think, that current_user_can( ‘bbp_forums_admin’ ) and the topics / replies equivalents are returning false for your admins / keymasters in bbpress/bbpress.php register_post_type() starting on 473 (you want ‘show_ui’ => true when registering the post types). Oddly (?) I can’t find the bbp_forums_admin etc capabilities anywhere.
I am just checking here but you don’t have a cache or anything like that enabled, do you?
I’m just about to go to bed but will test a couple of work-arounds tomorrow sometime.
i found it, in the hebrew translation there is no “(bbpress)” before the widget name like for the other bbpress widgets, but when i temporarily switched to english i found it
however, i would like to display the authors’ names without the gravatar icon next to each one (see above the red circle in the previous screenshot). i managed to modify some font settings in the widget php file, but i couldn’t figure out how to remove the avatar. is there a simple way to do it?
thanx!
Could you check to see if your admins have the bbPress role of “keymaster”? If not, change that and see if it works.
I’ve just reproduced the problem and had to do that. Having an “administrator” WP role was not enough.
Just want to know if that’s the issue! Thanks.
thanks @tharsheblows
This is in a large multisite install, and occurs on every site in the install, regardless of which theme is in use, and even when no other plugins are activated.
The problem is quite specific–as @nathanegraham says above–
Network Admins (what used to be called super admins) can access the bbPress Forums, Topics, and Replies in the dashboard menu on any site where bbPress is activated. But site admins for that particular site can not. (unless it is network activated. Then it works for both site admins and network admins).
The forum items in the Settings menu are there and visible. But not much use when the site admin can not create forums.
This is the case even when Join my multisite is deactivated (even when it’s uninstalled).
It’s a really specific problem, I realize, but it’s a clear issue that network admins do have access to that menu and site admins do not.
AT first I thought that the forums menu was functioning, just not visible, but it turns out the problem is deeper.
If, as a site admin, I have the direct link to the forums menu ( /wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=forum ), I can see the menu, but if I try to create a new forum, I get an “Invalid post type” error. It does seem that I can edit existing forums.
Again, network activating bbPress solves this problem (although it creates others).
Happy to provide any more info that might help!
I can’t reproduce this on a clean install of WP 4.0 with bbPress 2.5.4 and Twenty Fourteen theme. What other plugins are you using? I’ve tried it both with Join My Multisite and this pluginhttps://wordpress.org/plugins/multisite-plugin-manager/ (tried them separately, I mean) and both work.
Can you give any more details? Which theme are you using?
you should see
(bbpress) Forum serach Form
(bbpress) Forums List
(bbpress) Login Widget
(bbpress) recent replies
(bbpress) Recent topics
(bbpress) Statistics
(bbpress) topics views list
do you not see all these?
i see only 2 bbpress widgets, 1 for topics and 1 for search
So, I have managed to hide “post-form” by editing “bbpress.css”-file
Added line “display: none;”
#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form {
display: none;
clear: left;
But this hides “post-form” completely so I’m not able to, for example, reply any topics there are in forums. Anyone?
If I have understood you correctly you want to change the reply form you’ll be looking at
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-reply.php which sets up the forum and on line 57 calls
bbp_the_content
this function is in
wp-content/plugins/bbpress\includes\common\template.php
line 1706
you’d probably want to write a filter fro that function
if you’re familiar with wordpress args parsing, bbpress does it in the same way
apply_filter (‘xx’ , ‘bbp_before_get_the_content_parse_args’)
and then write a function xx that adds you initial text to $args[‘before’] should do it
Don’t; have time to write and test it at the mo, but come back if you need further help
when adding the bbpress topics widget to my sidebar, all that appears is a link to popular posts and to unanswered posts. there are no posts themselves displayed in the widget.
shouldn’t i see a list of topics from the forum in the widget?
I have seen a lot of forums whith this feature too, but it wasnt bbPress. I even dont know where should I change a code, I cant find this function template. I think that I could write a code for the feature by myself, but I need to find the template.php.
Any idea what I did wrong and how to fix it?
Got it figured out! In the new bbpress.php file I changed line 22 code:
from this
<section id="main">
to this:
<section id="main" class="col-left">
All good now!
Hi all,
i would like to know if there’s a way to hide subject when they’re closed.
Thx by advance for your answer and have a nice day
PS : i’m using WordPress Version 4.0 and bbPress Version 2.5.4
