sorry to post this here but my i cannot create topics or anything on the site..

i have been messing with this all day and getting quite aggrevated
my members cannot edit they’re topics or replies or forums if i allowed it which i dont
And they cannot create a topic from the Dashboard menu bar at the top
so the topics they are allowed to use looks totally horrible and does not have all my wordpress options, well i think it uses the normal wordpress replies maybe i would need to change that?

If they could Edit they could use the proper Tools after but..
Unless i set Edit_others_posts there is absolutely nothing i can do to allow them to edit
it always says you do not have the proper rights
and of course i DO NOT want them to be allowed to edit other peoples posts…

How could i make it so that they can edit they’re own posts only
and that they could post a Topic Directly from the Dashboard bar at the top of page to be able to have the proper tools instead of using post topic like a reply
I did reset all users to default Role since i saw it mentioned often and it didnt help
Only if id set it to moderator they could edit theyre own posts
but they can delete everything from everyone

i am using latest WordPress and latest bbpress with twenty fourteen theme and i have no plugins that would conflict

I’m seriously considering moving to bbPress forums and so far the import from Vanilla 2.1 works fine, but one serious issue for me is somehow importing the attachments as well.

Because of the nature of our forum, it’s kind of “attachments heavy”. Is there any “manual” way to redirect links maybe? I could just move attachment files to some other directory.

Now links to attachments look like this: http://www.MYSITE.COM/forum/uploads/FileUpload/a9/2b1cce434aca112cd9511e8de163e1.jpg

Any idea?

[pooledge]

Yes, I am sorry we kinda forgot this forum is mostly in English still 😉
Kolya’s advice to flush permalinks while deactivating all plugins and so on combinations, .trashing and recreating .htaccess didn’t work out yet, must be something with my bbPress but I have a long autumn night going ahead which is nice..

Can anyone help me in changing the size of the login button on the bbpress login widget. I must of tried over 20-30 different css codes, clearing cache and logging in and out and no matter what I do I cannot change the size of the login button.

I applied this code to change the size of the submit button

#bbpress-forums .submit {
background-color: ##a0668d;
color: #000000;
float: center;
vertical-align: middle;
border-radius: 10px;
height: 35px;
width: 80px;
font-size: 18px;
}

but I cannot locate the login button that is coming through the widget, even after inspecting with firebug and trying for the past 2 days.

As it turned out, the previous web developers had deleted the template directory within the BBPress plugin itself and this was the cause of the problem.

Hi,

2.6 is supposed to be faster but it looks like development is somehow stuck.

And I would love to see some Discourse features to be ported to bbPress as it could be better on mobile devices but I can not even find such as paid plugins…

Kind regards

PS: I am still not sure which forum to use as I am a bit disappointed about bbPress. Not about the development but on the missing information on its future and the new version like why is it delayed, what to do against that, where is help most needed…

In playing around I noticed some odd behavior…

I decided to just try full width forums, however, the forum index always looked off to the right as if it had a blank sidebar (I copied page.php to bbpress.php in the child template folder).

I then created a new page and put the forum index short code in it. On this one, full width worked fine for everything. The installation instructions indicated to create a page with the same name as the forum root slug (forums) and you wouldn’t have to use the short code. I changed the forum root slug from forums to forums2 and put the short code in the forums page and full width worked fine.

Thus, what I found out, I can get full width to work okay if I don’t name the forums page the same as the root slug.

Still can’t figure out the sidebar thing though…

Login widget login button size on sidebar
Wordpress: 3.9.2
bbPress: Version 2.5.4

Hello bbpress forums. I have been trying to accomplish a custom css change on my website. I installed bbpress, customized it a bit and added some forums. I added the widget on the right sidebar of my website. I then went to test it out a bit and noticed the login button being extremely tiny and hard to see.

When posting a topic of reply I also noticed the submit button was small and hard to see for some people. So I just wanted to make the login button on the sidebar widget a bit larger.

I used firebug and inspected the sidebar probably all day yesterday trying over 20 different custom css changes and had no luck. I tried things like:

============
#sidebar .button {
background-color: ##a0668d;
color: #000000;
float: center;
vertical-align: middle;
border-radius: 10px;
height: 35px;
width: 80px;
font-size: 18px;
}
================
body #sidebar .button {
padding-left: 45px;
!important;}
================
.user-submit {
padding-left: 45px;
!important;}
=================

My firebug skills are not that great but I am working on it. I tried so many other custom css changes to make this login button larger. I can go into firebug and actually change this and the button does change, I just cannot find the custom css to make this change permanent.

body #sidebar .button {
padding-left: 100px;
}

I did make the submit button for posting and replies larger, after finding this useful custom css code in the bbpress styling crib of the bbpress support site.

============================
#bbpress-forums .submit {
background-color: #a0668d;
color: #000000;
float: center;
vertical-align: middle;
border-radius: 10px;
height: 35px;
width: 80px;
font-size: 18px;
!important;}
========================

So that is good I got the submit button larger and more noticeable. If anyone is out there that would be able to assist me in just making this login button a bit larger it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for reading this

Still did not help. Yes, I

1. Created a wp-content/themes/twentyeleven-child folder
2. Created a twentyeleven-child/styles.css file with the info from the instructions
3. I copied twentyeleven/sidebar-page.php to twentyeleven-child/bbpress.php
4. I created a twentyeleven-child/css filder
5. I copied the bbpress.css file from the plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css folder to the twentyeleven-child/css folder.
6. I modified the bbpress.css to change a few colors.
7. I installed the plugin plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css and configured it to look at bbpress.php
8. I chose Post Name int he Permalink Settings
9. I created a page call Forums and ensured its Permalink was forums
10. I tried both default and sidebar template for it.

I tried both of the above suggestions in style.css and bbpress.css in the child tree to no avail.

I would be good with going with a “wide” page and no sidebar and just putting creating pages for logins and so forth, however, the problem there is the index page ends up with a blank sidebar so looks funky.

Thanks four your help and suggestion though!

Cheers for the response and thanks for your time and effort looking into this, much appreciated.

For the test below i set up a hidden forum on my live server.

What happens when you deactivate either/or “Go to first unread” & “Unread posts” plugins you’re using and submit a reply to an affected topic?

• I just went through all the bbpress related plugins and tried different combos and didn’t notice any significant performance differences.

Another test, this time with the ‘Quotes’ plugin disabled submit a reply to an affected topic.

• Using GDPress and had the same results as above

Another, what code and/or plugin are you using to show the user registration in each reply e.g. Join Date: Mar 2009
And another, what code and/or plugin are you using for the counts shown next to the username in each reply e.g Posts: 4529

• Using the function below. Again I disabled and noticed no significant improvement.

function func() {

$roleData = bbp_get_user_role(bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id ));

if($roleData=='bbp_moderator'){
        $data='<div class="bbp-author-role">Moderator</div>';
}

$registered = date("M Y", strtotime(get_userdata(bbp_get_reply_author_id())->user_registered));

$post_count = bbp_get_user_reply_count_raw( bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id )) ;

$data.='<div class="bbp-reply-ip"><span class="bbp-author-ip">';
$data.='Join Date: '.$registered;
$data.='<br />';
$data.='Posts: '.$post_count;
$data.='</span></div>';
}

Here’s the results for the first query

And the second query

Something I did notice when testing, was that when I was posting in the new topc I created, posts seemed to be submitting relatively quicker, 2 – 5 secs per post. Though when posting in a thread that had a lot more replies the post submission took a lot longer.

I tried the query plugin you suggested and getting relatively good results everything is < 2 secs, but it only shows the performance of the query results, and doesn’t take into account the time it takes to submit, which is > 10 secs. (unless I’m overlooking something??)

Thanks

Hello guys,
I’m using the latest version of WordPress and BBpress to date.
I don’t know if this is expected default behavior but in the front page of my forum, the total topic counts only show in the categories and not next to each forum.

I would like the categories NOT to have any count, and for the counts only to show next to the forums.
Any idea of what I could do?

Thanks!

[Stephen Edgar]

You are correct, image attachments are not imported, most of the ins and outs are in the docs

https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/phpbb/

[Stephen Edgar]

Maybe the site that works has a custom bbpress.php wrapper template or it is using a page with bbPress shortcodes, either or it’ll just take a bit more comparing the differences between the two.

[Stephen Edgar]

@csutherland88 That’s pretty cool, thanks for sharing it.

And BTW, the “bbPress Threaded Replies” plugin by Jennifer Dodd is the basis of bbPress threaded replies, Jennifer actually wrote the bbPress implementation based on her previous work with quite a few more enhancements than what was originally included in just the plugin.

[sdunning]

I am running bbpress on a local site and I’m quite happy with it so far. I am however experiencing an issue with the reply box.

If I try to write a reply to a reply the visual editor accepts no inout. I tried installing bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab but it hasn’t fixed the problem . Is there a setting I have overlooked or is this an ongoing issue that I’ll have to work around?

Cheers guys and gals.

/* WP version: v3.9.2
* bbPress version: v2.5.4
* Enable TinyMCE: v1.0.1

This sounds like we need to fix bbPress core, feel free to create a ticket on Trac and we can take a closer look https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org

Edit: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2685

[divyesh25]

hello everyone,

any know about bbpress custom query pagination. please help me..

[Stephen Edgar]

Thanks for adding this to a GitHub repo, I’ll take a closer look later.

The issue with the permalinks on ru.forums.wordpress.org is indeed known, details are here:
https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/121

Most likely rather than fix this in bbPress 1.x we will look to add your plugin (if needed) when we upgrade all the international forums to bbPress 2.x.

[Stephen Edgar]

This sounds like an issue with GD bbPress Tools and not bbPress, I suggest you post on their support forums for issues with their plugin.

[Stephen Edgar]

Firstly, a quick breakdown via pingdom, quite a delay in getting your JavaScript files, I’d get these into your Amazon CDN.

As you stated above “ive eliminated all the points you’ve made above, and the site only chokes when users are submitting posts in the forum, so I’m confident i’ve isolated the issue.”

• What happens when you deactivate either/or “Go to first unread” & “Unread posts” plugins you’re using and submit a reply to an affected topic?
• Another test, this time with the ‘Quotes’ plugin disabled submit a reply to an affected topic.
• Another, what code and/or plugin are you using to show the user registration in each reply e.g. Join Date: Mar 2009
• And another, what code and/or plugin are you using for the counts shown next to the username in each reply e.g Posts: 4529

Can you run the following two queries in phpMyAdmin, it will give me an idea of the state of the data in your database, it is the topic and three replies (two imported replies and one new bbPress reply) from the ~10k topic you have:

SELECT ID, post_author, post_parent, menu_order, post_type
FROM  wp_posts
WHERE  ID
IN ( 490979, 831628, 837704, 1031603 ) 

and

SELECT * 
FROM  wp_postmeta
WHERE  post_id
IN ( 490979, 831628, 837704, 1031603 ) 

Once you have the results of each (they don’t show any ‘sensitive’ data) click the “Print View” and copy and paste them to a text file, a Gist or to pastebin for me to checkout please.

Over the weekend I had to reinstall everything here locally (and my online servers for a different reason) as something was up with my database, I’ve created a topic here locally with ~10,000 replies today (similar in size to your second most popular topic) and it takes ~1.6 seconds to post a reply to this topic. To time the queries, install the following plugin and of course only have it activated whilst your debugging this stuff https://wordpress.org/plugins/query-monitor/

Iv installed this and when i go to make a post the addons are not. What is missing is things like youtube and such

Adds different expansions and tools to the bbPress 2.0 plugin powered forums: BBCode support, signatures, custom views, quote…

did you create a bbpress.php and put it into your themes folder??

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

[Robkk]

try this

.bbpress .singular .entry-content {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 68.9%;
float: right!important;
}

[obatron]

I put it in styles.css under the twentyeleven-child, and then tried it in bbpress.css under twentyeleven-child/css, neither changed the behavior of the side bar overlap.

Hello, my website uses wordpress 3.9.2 and bbPress 2.5.4.

I searched the troubleshooting forum for someone else who has this issue, but I can’t find anything. In the posts on the forum, if a the writer tries to make a space (for example, between paragraphs) by using the ‘return’ key a space doesn’t show up when the post or comment is posted. Here’s an example http://dailyfantasywinners.com/forums/topic/is-qb-more-important-on-fanduel-than-draftkings/, I pressed return after the first paragraph but when I posted there is no space between the paragraph and the word “Thoughts?”

Any help is appreciated!
