You’ll need to test with the Twenty Fourteen theme and with all your plugins except bbPress disabled as I wrote in my previous post.

Hi,

I want to create a “member profiles” page that lists all of my bbpress users and links to their individual bbpress profile pages.

Now, if I want to find a particular user, I need to go into the forum and click the author link.

Is this possible?

[Stephen Edgar]

Further to the above, it looks like wpscan pings some databases and looks for exploits in anything named ‘bbPress’ and in our case, it’s finding those false positives which only relate to the old bbPress 1.x ‘standalone’ version of bbPress.

+1 for another anxiously awaiting the VB3 importer feature. We are running v3.8.3 and are getting hacked almost weekly. As soon as the import feature is ready, we’re ready to make the move to bbPress.

[Stephen Edgar]

Also in terms of bbPress users can look at other users favorites:

e.g. https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/azinfiro/favorites/

But you cannot see other users subscriptions, only your own:

e.g. https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/azinfiro/subscriptions/

You can see your subscriptions, I cannot, you want to take this into account when showing these counts wherever you are planning on doing this so users only see their own subscription counts.

You want to change line #109 in form-topic.php
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.5.4/templates/default/bbpress/form-topic.php#L109

From:

<?php if ( !bbp_is_single_forum() ) : ?>

To:

<?php if ( ! ( bbp_is_single_forum() || bbp_is_topic_edit() ) ) : ?>

Give Akismet a run, it’s all we use here on bbpress.org it catches most of the spam.

@tmanhphuc None of the issues you link to relate to the bbPress v2.x plugin, these are all old vulnerabilities for the bbPress v1.x standalone version of bbPress, these have all been patched in the bbPress v1.2 branch.

Sorry, I found my own answer under this thread: .

This thread can be closed, I won’t mind.

We just finished migrating a client’s site to use bbPress, and hit our first snag. Thread/topic subscription appears to work correctly. But subscribing to a forum does not result in any notification emails.

I’d post a link to the site, but all forums are marked as private because it’s being used as part of an intranet.

Versions:

WordPress 3.6.1
bbPress 2.5.4

I can list the other plugins if someone suspects a conflict, but it’s a fairly long list.

[Robin W]

ok lets start by seeing if this is a plugin or theme 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, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Hi all, I think name of the topic can explain the situation I am in. Everything is updated to its latest.
For those who want to see the an example topic that’s affected(Also comments have this):
http://forum.gamesap.az/forums/topic/csgo-yeni-baslayanlar-ucun-qisa-m%C9%99lumat/

I am not a magician with CSS, but when I view the source of page, I see that in that area, I can’t seem to see the beginning og </p> paragraph (closing tag is there)
So I guess the problem is, bbpress is not giving the paragraph a proper starting point.
Have no idea how to fix this, Would be grateful for any help

Hi,
My website was hacked, i used wpscan (http://wpscan.org/) scan vulnerabilities

If it helps anyone this will help you see all your bbpress duplicate topics at a glance with the duplicate ID
** Note these are just selects so they will not delete any data **

select 
		post_type
      , post_date
      , post_title
      , post_content
      , max(id) as dup_id, 
      count(*) as dupe_count
from 
		wp_posts 
where 
		post_type in ('forum', 'topic', 'reply')
group by 
		post_type
      , post_date
      , post_title
      , post_content
having count(*) > 1
order by post_type, post_date, dup_id

We can then take a variation of that and have it give us the start and end duplicate ranges for each post_type with counts of rows we expect to be impacted.

select post_type, min(dup_id) as start_dup, max(dup_id) as last_dup, count(*) as total_recs
from 
(
select 
		post_type
      , post_date
      , post_title
      , post_content
      , max(id) as dup_id, 
      count(*) as dupe_count
from 
		wp_posts 
where 
		post_type in ('forum', 'topic', 'reply')
group by 
		post_type
      , post_date
      , post_title
      , post_content
having count(*) > 1
) i
group by post_type

of course you need to verify but this should help get you on your way

I am currently using CleanTalk, it’s working very good for me, 100% zero spam.
but it only allow 14 days trial and after that, I will need to pay.

Does anybody know any free anti-spam plugins (for BBPress) that doesn’t have Captcha?

Thanks 🙂

[Robkk]

Amazing work man, thanks so much.

your welcome 😀

I need to figure out where to post each code in my theme,etc.

Should I also put codes in bbPress plugin, or not? Since it might get deleted once updated, right?

you copy bbpress templates into your child theme so its okay when bbpress updates, i explain exactly what template to copy and also i show you a snippet of where to put the code by the original code.

you put custom css into anything that can handle custom css

in bbpress.css in your child theme(you copy the original in your child theme)
in your child themes css stylesheet
the jetpack plugin module custom css
a standalone custom css plugin

[theadammcintyre]

I’ve been trying to figure this out for several days, but can’t get my head around the error.

Every time I create child forums or categories within a forum, they return 404 errors when clicked on, evern though they’ll display how many topics are inside said forum.

When I convert existing forums to categories, the topics inside don’t show but the page does load.

I’ve searched the BBPress forums for an answer and see several other threads from people having issues with 404s, but no real answers.

Ive gone through the tools > forums and reset everything.

I’m using standard forum permalink settings and nothing is working.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks 🙂

The issue is getting wordpress search to display the results in a meaningful way (ie bpress style)

This plugin which is old claims to do this, but there is a warning that it shows private forum results, is unless all your forums are open I wouldn’t use it.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-bbpress/

Try it and see if it works

[Pavle123]

Robin that´s absolutely correct.

I was using BuddyPress login widget into my “Forum only” sidebar.
I removed that widget and added bbPress login ,and it works.

My theme : Genesis Sample
Plugins used : BuddyPress, bbPress, BuddyPress Extender, BBpress Extender.

Hope this will help someone.

Everything works now for me. Thanks for the help.

[Robin W]

ok, thanks for that, so if I understand correctly, you were using the buddypress login widget in the sidebar and that wasn’t working and are now using the bbpress login widget in the sidebar, and it now works.

Is that correct and you are now fixed ?

[Pavle123]

Okay, so I figured out, but still do not understand why this works like this.

bbpress login widget does not redirect non admins and works normally.
BuddyPress login widget does not work and redirects to the home page, and then login session expires.

[acornale]

At the moment, I have a standard WordPress search box on the top of my page. It seems to return posts and pages but not bbpress forums or topics.

I can use the bbpress shortcodes to display a forum search but I don’t want two search boxes.

Is there a way to extend the native wordpress search so it returns posts, pages, topics and forums?

At the moment, it seems I can search bbpress OR search wordpress posts / pages. I want to search both?

[Pavle123]

Wow @Robkk

Amazing work man, thanks so much. I will need few days to set everything up.

I need to figure out where to post each code in my theme,etc.

Should I also put codes in bbPress plugin, or not? Since it might get deleted once updated, right?

[Pavle123]

So this is the plugin I use https://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-simple-sidebars/

But these sidebars are not being used for bbPress forum.

For bbPress I use this setup by Genesis Theme.

And not sure about conditionals (sorry) but here is the setup.

Not sure what is causing these “login expires” thing. Would really love to solve it, as its a bit annoying to non admins (Note for admins login does not expire).

[Robin W]

Ok, the code works (just retested it on my site), but the link you supplied is not using it.

are you sure you put

/* =Revisions
————————————————————– */

#bbpress-forums .bbp-topic-content ul.bbp-topic-revision-log,
 #bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content ul.bbp-topic-revision-log,
 #bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content ul.bbp-reply-revision-log {
 Display : none !important ;
 }

in

wp-content/themes/divi/style.css

Do you have caching software running?
