Hi Guys

A conflict exists with bbPress and the WooSidebars plugin –

The conflict causes the whole forum to return a 503 Error. After much digging found the problem comes from this bbPress function

bbp_get_topic_title() function

and is fixed by changing

$title = get_the_title( $topic_id )

to

$topic = get_post( $topic_id );
$title = $topic->post_title;

Hope you can add that fix to your next version update – Thank you – Steve

Hi,

today I have made the update to version 2.54. Now it works no longer correctly with permalinks (instead of the topic-title, now the ID will be used). The settings in WordPress are unchanged: title in the permalink. In wordpress-posts the permalinks works well as always. The problem is only in bbpress.

And one more thing:
Until the update it was always automatically included as the reply-title:
“Reply to: … (post title) …”.

Now, the field for the title in a reply to a post is always empty!
What’s going on? Until yesterday (before the update) everything was ok.
Please, give me your help.

Thank you very much says
Morgensonne

Hello,

It’s about email notifications on active topics and replies, sent to user who have subscribed.
In addition to bbpress, last version, bbp moderation and bbp digest plugins are activated.

The fact is that, in place of only one email, there are many email, the same email are sent twice and often more (sometimes more than 6 duplicate messages), in the same time, for the same message.

I suspect redundant between plugins emails, but how to fix it?

I submitted a ticket on the blog support bbp digest but no response to date.
I peeked in the sending bbp digests script (events.php), but nothing special.

As elsewhere and on another site I have, likewise, duplicate emails, but unrelated bbp (itheme security), I also wonder if it is not the function wp mail that bug or a problem with wp cron?

Any idea about this?

[rsbthebest]

What i mean is i am using bbpress on my wordpress site. It has forum and whenever someone post any thing some points are awarded to him using mcreed point system. But i dont want it to be over used.

So i want to impose restriction like :-

After posting 10 posts in a day the 11th post will not get any points

Or

A user can only post 10 post no more than that.

I will prefer the first one more!
Is there any way to do any of this? Pleas reply

There is nothing you need to remove manually, if you go to Tools -> Forums -> Reset Forums all bbPress data will be deleted from the database.

If you are changing the user ID directly in the database and ‘do it wrong’ you are most certainly going to have permission and capability issues with the user ID.

You should create a new user, assign them the WordPress ‘Administrator’, then assign the bbPress role ‘Keymaster’. Logout of your current admin account and test your new admin account. If everything works and you have transferred any posts, pages, forums, topics, replies etc to the new user then go ahead and delete the old account once you have confirmed ‘all the things’.

Note: Your posts were being picked up as spam by Akismet for some reason that is why they didn’t show up.

try adding ‘!important’ to the changes eg

#bbpress-forums div.odd, #bbpress-forums ul.odd {
background-color: #222222 !important;
}

to ensure they are not overwritten by later loading

I want the users to get email alerts every time their forum role changes.

Namely, I want to notify users only if their role has changed to Participant.

I found a way to do this with standard WordPress roles, but it doesn’t work with bbPress roles.

http://clicknathan.com/web-design/notify-a-wordpress-user-when-their-role-has-been-changed-to-a-specific-role/

I tried changing if ($new_role == 'contributor') to if ($new_role == 'participant') and even to this if ($new_role == 'bbp_participant') – nothing worked.

WordPress version: 3.8.2
bbPress version: 2.5.3

2011 should be fine with bbpress – perhaps it’s 2011 that’s corrupted?

Hello,

I just created my bbpress forum and I don’t get it into a Full Width site. I use the “The7” theme from dream theme and there exists no full width .php site which I could copy and rename to bbpress.php. So would could I do?

[RitaNow]

WP version 3.9.1
bbPress version 2.5.4
Web site http://raptureintheairnow.com/

I have deactivated all my plugins. The only one turned on is bbPress. The page loads half way then gets the error:
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@raptureintheairnow.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Some of the sub forums load with no problem like:

MAIN DISCUSSION FORUM

I called my hosting company and they said to disable all plugins and turn them back on one at a time. bbPress is the only one turned on and getting these errors.

Thanks for your response! I’ve done that – and it takes the sidebar away, but no luck on getting bbpress to go full-width.

At least with that small modification to my bbpress.php, I know bbPress is pointed to the right template — now I just need to figure out what code is preventing the full-width format.

Hey everyone,

I’m having a bit of trouble getting my Forum into full-width format. I’m using the Oxygen theme which by default has a left and right sidebar.

I’ve already copied my “page-template-fullwidth.php”, renamed it as “bbpress.php”, and installed bbPress WP Tweaks to make sure that bbPress is injecting itself into the “bbpress.php” template.

Given what I’ve read – this should’ve done the trick. I’m wondering if it’s something weird with Oxygen Theme’s templates. I’ve included the code of the Full Width Template i’m using here below. Does anyone see anything out of the ordinary that could be preventing me from getting full-width formatting?

<?php
/**
* Template Name: Full Width
*
* Full width page template with no sidebar.
*
* @package Oxygen
* @subpackage Template
*/

get_header(); // Loads the header.php template. ?>

<div class=”aside”>

<?php get_sidebar( ‘primary’ ); // Loads the sidebar-primary.php template. ?>

</div>

<?php do_atomic( ‘before_content’ ); // oxygen_before_content ?>

<div class=”content-wrap”>

<div id=”content”>

<?php do_atomic( ‘open_content’ ); // oxygen_open_content ?>

<div class=”hfeed”>

<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>

<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

<?php do_atomic( ‘before_entry’ ); // oxygen_before_entry ?>

<div id=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?>” class=”<?php hybrid_entry_class(); ?>”>

<?php do_atomic( ‘open_entry’ ); // oxygen_open_entry ?>

<?php echo apply_atomic_shortcode( ‘entry_title’, ‘[entry-title permalink=”0″]’ ); ?>

<div class=”entry-content”>

<?php the_content( __( ‘Continue reading <span class=”meta-nav”>→</span>’, ‘oxygen’ ) ); ?>

<?php wp_link_pages( array( ‘before’ => ‘<p class=”page-links”>’ . __( ‘Pages:’, ‘oxygen’ ), ‘after’ => ‘</p>’ ) ); ?>

</div><!– .entry-content –>

<?php echo apply_atomic_shortcode( ‘entry_meta’, ‘<div class=”entry-meta”>[entry-edit-link]</div>’ ); ?>

<?php do_atomic( ‘close_entry’ ); // oxygen_close_entry ?>

</div><!– .hentry –>

<?php do_atomic( ‘after_entry’ ); // oxygen_after_entry ?>

<?php do_atomic( ‘after_singular’ ); // oxygen_after_singular ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php endif; ?>

</div><!– .hfeed –>

<?php do_atomic( ‘close_content’ ); // oxygen_close_content ?>

</div><!– #content –>

<?php do_atomic( ‘after_content’ ); // oxygen_after_content ?>

<?php get_footer(); // Loads the footer.php template. ?>

It’s good to see this post as this has been driving me crazy.

Note that the button works if you type your link text into the post, highlight it and then hit the link button.

For example, THIS link was created doing it that way.

[Robin W]

No problem,

It might 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, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

[Robin W]

There are all sorts of backdoors that a ‘page/post’ restricting plugin doesn’t cover for bbpress

For instance :

search is usually forum wide
http://www.mysite.com/topics
http://www.mysite.com/replies
looking at topics/replies created in a user profile
recent topics widget
recent replies widget

all usually just bypass a plugin written for pages.

which is why I wrote the private groups plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

There is no reason why it shouldn’t work alongside your members with members protecting your pages & posts, and private groups protecting your forums.

BUT you do have to set users up to see restricted forums, and this is manual. It is quick to do (just a setting within the user settings), but if you have an automated joining process, then you would need to add a manual step (or write some code!)

I’ve reinstalled bbpress 2.5.4 in WP 3.9.1 and I can’t find the button “forum” in settings nor other place. I have unistall, cleaned the data base and reinstall again but the button doesn’t appear. Any help? Thanks.

On my local server search results URLs get pretty permalinks and search works. On my live server the query string is shown and no search results are returned.

I did a test by manually entering the search URL as it was prettyfied on my local server and surprisingly search works.

The search URL that bbPress returns looks like this and returns no results:
http://www.onedesigns.com/support/search?action=bbp-search-request&bbp_search=pinboard

The prettified link for the same search looks like this:
http://www.onedesigns.com/support/search/pinboard

So the search engine works and apparently it’s the permalinks that cause the issue. Changing or resaving WordPress’ permalink setting didn’t make any difference.

A var_dump for bbp_search returns NULL.

The only difference between my local server and live server is that on my local server I use Apache and on my live serve nginx + Varnish.

Is there any incompatibility between bbPress and nginx or Varnish? Are there any permalink configurations I must apply?

Thank you

Hi,

I would like to change some of the wording in bbPress.

For example, instead of

“Create new topic in . . .”

I’d like it to say

“Create new post . . .”

or whatever.

Which files would I look in to edit? Or (long short) is there even a plugin to edit?

FYI, yes, I am aware that on the next update such changes will be overwritten, etc.

Thanks for help!

[Killerrabbit2]

WP V. 3.9.1
bbPress v 2.5.4

I’ve been banging my head against the wall on this one.

Here is what I need to do:

I have users who need to register for different forums. Each specific forum has restrictions. I am using the S2Member plugin. I can with their shortcodes restrict content within a page. I then can restrict a forum listing when I use a bbPress short code within a page.

The problem is that bbPress dynamically creates topic pages, thus I can not put any shortcode logic in to restrict who sees the topics.

S2Member has some code that works to restrict content with a function. However, using bbPress conditional tags don’t work. I can use the native conditional tags which do.

Below is my code that I can’t seem to get working:

add_action ("wp", "my_custom_capabilities");

function my_custom_capabilities ()
	{
	if(bbp_is_topic_tag('Global'))
		{
		header ("Location: ".S2MEMBER_MEMBERSHIP_OPTIONS_PAGE_URL);
		exit();
		}
	}

Ideas?!
