These are the steps I took on my local test area to recreate the problem;
– latest version of both WP and BBpress
– both are fresh installs
– using twentyfourteen theme
– no child themes
1. Create a public category
2. Create a public forum
3. Make a topic on participant user
4. Mark the topic as private on keymaster account – via wordpress visibility
5. Try to read topic on keymaster account. It will show up in the topic loop, but when you click on the specific topic to read it the topic content will not show.
6. Try and read the topic on the participant (author) account and everything shows fine.
In the forum you will always see: Posted by “user name” and that “user name” is clickable that will direct you to the profile page of “user name”. Also inside a topic you are able to click on the avatar and “user name” at each reaction.
I found this post http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/remove-hyperlink-from-user-name/
But it places a “,” in front of each name and avatar and did not gave me the perfect result, because I needed to put it in functions.php so it was also placed in the widget bbpress login.
The main thing is, I want to disable user profiles to be viewable by any user.
If anyone got a clue, please let me know. Thanks in advance
Hey guys,
I have made a test of bbPress on my page here:
http://gamehub.dk/forum/
However, as you can see, there is a “read more” (LΓ¦s mere in danish) in the bottom of the page, and I have no clue how to remove this? Anyone who can help?
I have installed BBPress in my website but I would like users to moderate the topics that they have previously created. I don’t know how to do this with existing roles and permissions. Is there any possibility to achieve this?
Do you think there is a limit with database size?
No, all size constraints are upstream and relate directly to WordPress and the size you are talking about is not an issue.
There is almost 100,000 posts and the database is bigger than 350 Mb
That’s fine…
Now the fine print, this will take a while to import, depending on your setup it might be a couple of hours right through to 8, 16 or 24, “how long is a piece of string” theory.
I am not sure what tools Invision includes but optimizing and cleaning the database first is a very good idea.
As bbPress imports the topics and replies it parses all the BBCodes ([b][i][url] etc) through a custom conversion script, if it comes across data it doesn’t like it will stop and no longer continue. Thus it is advisable to setup a local MAMP/XAMPP install and perform an import on your local machine as it gives you a good idea on how the process works, how much time it will take and the data integrity. Once your happy with all that then give it a go on your webhost.
Hello, I just downloaded and succesfully activated bbpress forum. I am using woothemes definiton template. I am facing problems on publishing widgets such as the log in widget put on the forum page. Nothign shows on the site.
Kindly ask for help.

As per the ticket you linked in your post #2088, this should be fixed.
I’ll take a closer look at this when I get a chance.
Detailed reproduction steps would be helpful so I am trying the same things you are π
eg.
1. Create a topic with user ‘x’ who has a bbPress role of ‘participant’
2. …
3. …
4. etc…
I did ping to my site.

before writing in reply [bbPress Trac] # 2421 I do still other test…
Dear Step, I’m seeing is different. On this site bbpress.org I delete tags of the topic where I’m responding to. Before there was the “test” tag and I try to have deleted.
Anyone have an idea on how to get this working for topics?
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-private-replies/
(Rather than bumping very old topics I split this into a new topic)
https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/
Participants can ‘assign_topic_tags’
Keymasters and Moderators can ‘manage_topic_tags’, ‘edit_topic_tags’, ‘delete_topic_tags’ & ‘assign_topic_tags’.
Are you seeing something different? What user role are you using to test this?
Yes π
You can download and install the e107 v1 importer from #2421.
Any testing and feedback you can provide would be very helpful.
Hello everybody,
I’m completely new to bbpress, but I’ve been running a wordpress site for years.
After years of Invision power board, separately from my wordpress site, i’d like to use somthing simpler and I think bbpress is the good tool for that. Cherry on the cake, I notoiced that bbpress offers an importation engine with almost every well-know forums.
Since I tried to import my invision forum, it was completely impossible and the importation tool keeps saying there’s nothing to import.
I have double-ckecked all my invision database server information, but there is no mistake.
Did someone tried to import the 3.4.3 version or do I have to migrate to the last version?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Nope bad luck it didn’t worked with buddypress user profile UI but it worked very well with bbpress. I installed Buddypress just to activate the Personal Messenger option to my forum which isn’t available in the bbpress :/
Hi
WP 3.9
BBP 2.5.3
TwentyTen
I use WPPA a lot on my blog and would like to integrate in BBPress.
When I add it in topic i get this:
http://goandstay.co.za/blog/forums/topic/testtopic-2/#.U15rdfmSySo
The code instead of the slideshow.
Jacob Breedtveld . aka Opajaap (author of this amazing plugin) (http://wppa.opajaap.nl/ & https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-photo-album-plus/) says:
If this also does not work, ask the BBPress boys if there is a possiility that on the particular text shortcodes can be expanded ( $text = do_shortcode( $text ); ) or that the standard content filters can be run. ( $text = apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $text ); )
I don’t have a clue what Jacob says, but think you will know!
Thanks
Hi
I have recently installed bbpress and it is great. I have a small change I would like to make. As you can see the writing on the blog is right in the top corner of the template. Is there an easy way to shift this across?

Using WP version 3.9 and bbpress 2.5.3
Thanks

I have no idea of this plugin works if you are using buddypress (it does with bbpress) but might be worth a quick test – let us know either way !
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-profile-information
HI i was able to save and show the new field “location” under the name. How can i let user’s edit there location from there profile. I did tried above method given bu Robin but it aint work
PS i have integrated buddy press- bbpress does it has to be editing the buddypress files o.o
This site here bbpress.org uses a customized theme and customized code to achieve the results in the pictures you show above.
I suggest you have a read of some of the tutorials in our docs, much of what you want has been documented in the codex.

Thanks Mike, I am one of the bbPress core developers, with some luck I’ll get this fixed within the next few days. At this stage until I dig into all the code properly it is about as clear as mud for myself also.
Either or, glad you have a temp fix for now π
In that case, is it possible to hide the βhidden/privateβ forum/topic even under the user profile to all non-logged in user or users with no access to the hidden/private forum/topic?
It ‘should’ be already hidden/private and unable to be seen in a users profile, we have a couple of outstanding issues to fix in this regard that we hope to get fixed for bbPress 2.6.
Hi
(Sorry, sorry, sorry for my bad English.)
I’m doing a thousand attempts with shortcode, use bbPress folder in my template folder. Using plugins bbPress WP Tweaks and I set page.php in its settings.
When I try to do this:

Instead I get this:

No column post no number π
Then I can not get this:

1) I can never see these icons
2) I want to see this box on my forum, “Topic Info”, “Info Forum” equal to that bbPress is a very clever solution.
3) in my forum (xamp server to the local machine to create complete style) when there are topics with more pages does not happen what happens here, where the first reply is seen on every page and a different color.
I read a lot on the forum and many people asking for a similar style to this bbPress.org. No one answered a precise code, but this I can understand, this style of bbPress is magnificent.
I have been working for many hours but I managed to get anything, if I fix the things listed above I am happy.
I doubt that this can not be done with the system widgets, as I’m trying …. widgets can not do this … who gives me the changes to make to the template? Please.
I suggest you have a read of some of the docs, most of what you are asking about is in the docs.
For example you can use shortcodes and widgets for login and register actions:
https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/ https://codex.bbpress.org/widgets/
The majority of bbPress actions including moderation can all be performed in the ‘front end’ and only some specific actions (configuration and settings) are required to be performed in the WordPress dashboard (back-end).

I just installed bbpress forum in my word press website. however, the biggest disadvantage for me is, that it uses word press dashboard, and wp-admin login. is there a way around this huge disadvantage?
