Hey guys, I’m new to BBpress. so I have a few questions that I’m hoping can be solved here.
The theme I’m using has 2 different custom Sidebars and other features that can be enabled and disabled on the page settings.

I’ve created a custom Page template for the forum and tried using the Shortcodes to implement BBpress on the page and it works but once you click something on the page it directs back to the original template. Is there a way to have the whole forum and index and everything on the one page?

Thanks

I have bbpress 2.5.3 installed with bbpress WP Tweaks 1.3, GD bbpress Tools 1.5.1, GD bbpress Widgets 1.0.3 and Theme My Login 6.3.9. I’m able to access my login page but it shows up when you go to the Forums Page, click on any of the forums, then it shows the Login/Register. How can I make it to show up as soon as someone goes into the forums page?

[Mike]

OK, thanks.
Any thoughts on giving the site users bbPress roles automatically, rather than the network users?
And on running:
Tools -> Forums -> Repair Forums -> Remap existing users to default forum roles
for all blogs too?

I then tried to import via IPB 3.4.6 -> BBPress and again, I am greeted by errors.

This time.

WordPress database error: [Table ‘decerto2_ipb.ipb_members’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT convert(members.member_id USING “utf8”) AS member_id,convert(members.members_pass_hash USING “utf8”) AS members_pass_hash,convert(members.members_pass_salt USING “utf8”) AS members_pass_salt,convert(members.name USING “utf8”) AS name,convert(members.email USING “utf8”) AS email,convert(members.joined USING “utf8”) AS joined FROM ipb_members AS members LIMIT 0, 100
No users to convert-

Does anything WORK?

[John James Jacoby]

Add this in a custom plugin or the functions.php of your active theme:

add_filter( 'bbp_allow_global_access', '__return_false' );

You’ll want to undo the edits you’ve made to bbPress’s files, also.

Hi guys,

I’m attempting to import a Xenforo DB over to BBPress. It’s not too large (300 members, 4000 Posts)

When I attempt the conversion I get an error message.

Fatal error: Class ‘Xenforo_Not_Complete’ not found in /home/decerto2/public_html/dev/wp-content/plugins/bbconverter/bbc-includes/bbc-converter-class.php(39) : eval()’d code on line 1

Is anyone able to assist as I am looking at testing before I move my live board

Thanks

For what it’s worth, here is what I ended up doing:

1. I left my “parent” forum as a category.

2. Around line 847 of bbpress/includes/forums/template.php, I added “true” to the if statement to force the “category” parent forum to be shown, as follows:

// No link for categories until we support subscription hierarchy
 // @see https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2475
if ( true || bbp_is_forum_category() ) {
$retval = bbp_get_user_subscribe_link( $r );
}

3. In bbpress/templates/default/loop-single-forum.php I replaced line 44 with the following:

<?php 
		
$subForumList = bbp_forum_get_subforums();
		
if(sizeof($subForumList) > 1){

   echo "<ul style='margin-left: 20px;'>";

   foreach($subForumList as $currForum){

   // Create the arguments
   $r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array('forum_id' => $currForum->ID,
        'user_id' => 0,
        'before' => '',
        'after' => '',
        'subscribe' => __( 'Subscribe',   'bbpress' ),
        'unsubscribe' => __( 'x', 'bbpress' )
         ), 'get_forum_subscribe_link' );

    $isSubscribed = bbp_get_forum_subscription_link($r);

    // see if the returned html has 'is-subscribed' in it
    // if it does, then the user is subscribed to the forum

    if(strpos($isSubscribed, 'is-subscribed') != 0){
    echo "<li>" . $isSubscribed . "&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href='" . bbp_get_forum_permalink($currForum->ID) . "'>" . $currForum->post_title . "</a></li>";
    }
			
   }

  echo "</ul>";
  } // end > 1
?>

Feel free to criticize, pick apart, or provide feedback as you see fit…it works for me.

I’m in the “Import Forum” section of bbpress plugin – there’s no option to select for bbPress 2 (only bbPress 1). Or am I going about this the wrong way?

I’ll be making various test imports in the using wordpress’ import/export in the meantime to see how far I can get merging these 2 sites.

Hi,

The plugin I am referring to is this one:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-topic-thumbnails/

The issue is that this one only pulls the thumbnail from the first image in the post. I want a default image to be used for all posts regardless so that the branding of the site remains consistent.

There must be a way to do this through PHP, just I do not know where to start (and I have a limited knowledge of PHP).

Cheers

Hi,
I have multisite WordPress 3.8.1 and Buddypress 1.9.1, and have just set up separate forums using the bbPress plugin, v2.5.3

Now everyone who is logged in and visits another site in the network is automatically made a ‘Participant’ of the site they are visiting. I don’t want this to happen.

I have set bbp_allow_global_access( false ) in bbPress includes/admin/settings.php, line 532
I have also set '_bbp_allow_global_access' => 0, in includes/core/options.php, line 37

However, when I visit a new site I am still made a participant of it. How can I disable this option in all my sites (there are thousands) without setting Auto Role to unchecked and saving the forum settings page in each individual site?

Thanks.

[chapeauvert]

I exported the database from the old host and imported into the new host I then tried importing the forum in WordPress using the bbPress plug-in. No forum seems to be created.

Am I missing a step?

[gavpedz]

Can anyone explain how to set out my forum main page like yours here? http://bbpress.org/forums
you know with latest topics being the main content and forums on the sidebar?

Also it does not display very well on my site. http://cornwallautismsupport.com/forums/

[assylumn]

Hi,

I am new to BBpress and was wondering if there was a way to display a small thumbnail logo next to each topic within a forum.

I am aware that there is a plugin that does this, however, that pulls an image from the topic itself and I want a standard image (site logo) to appear by each topic post.

Here is an example of what I wish to achieve: http://techiteasy.co/forums/forum/android/

The theme I am using was created in Artisteer but I am quite happy to edit the PHP if that is needed.

Many thanks

Hello everyone. It is my first post.

It is nice to be a part of a such big community.

I have a problem with my WP. Currently I have installed buddypress, bbpress and woocommerce. It has to be “social platform” with an options to register user to an event (that is why woocommerce is used).

I am creating this website for a long time (2 months). and just 2 days ago I realized that all Forum settings disappear.

Of course I had a few back ups, but even the oldest did not fix the problem, do not know why.

It was working before because I set up a few forums, and created topics etc.

Also, when I try to delete the plugin or update, this appear: Fatal error: Call to undefined function bbp_get_user_id() in /home/rugby7s/domains/rugby7s.vdl.pl/public_html/wp-content/themes/Glow-child/functions.php on line 8

Functions.php was not modificated by me.

Forum works, but cannot be edit in any way in admin panel.

I use Elegant Theme: Glow.

Even if I change theme there is still the same problem, so in my opinion it is not theme’s problem.

I already searched any solutions, but it seems that no one had exact problem as me.

Any ideas what went wrong?

Thanks

Seb

Closing this thread also as it is 3+ years old.

I moved @tazogamer reply and code to it’s own topic:

Are you wanting something like this?

forums/membership-services/view-profile/{username}

If so we already have a support ticket opened:
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2496

[Stephen Edgar]

There is a support topic for that in their support forums, hopefully an update Ad King Pro’ will come along soon that resolves the issue.

@@mariz_p This is not a ‘standard feature’ of WordPress or bbPress, I presume you are using a plugin to enable this. What plugin is it?

Depending upon how the plugin implements this it ‘might’ be something bbPress could add support for in the bbPress login widget and form-user-*.php templates, but most likely this we be difficult to do for compatibility of ‘all the plugins’ that enable this feature.

Most likely you will need to customize the form-user-*.php templates to match the plugin you are using.

Hello,

I am trying to write a plugin that adds some meta-information to a forum when it gets created. I can see that bbPress has a “bbp_new_forum” and a “bbp_edit_forum” hook, yet those never appear to fire, no matter what i do. I even added a php-die directly in front of their respective “do_action” calls inside the bbPress source code just to find out, that the part of the code that should call the new_forum hook appears to never actually be executed. What are those hooks for then, and what hooks DO get called when you create/edit a bbPress forum?

Thank you for your help!

My Version of WordPress is 3.8.1
My Version of bbPress is 2.5.3

I HAVE DONE THAT, but you need to read all these instruction and do a customization:

//using add_filter, i have changed one original bbPress function (named bbp_list_forums, created from bbpress\includes\forums\template.php function)
// copied  that function, and inserted the additional code (you can easily see my added extra code)
//so, after some time, someone, who will work on this website, may have to update the below "bbp_list_forums" function (according from the new version of bbPress package,as now its 2013-14 year), and insert again my added code in its place..

add_filter('bbp_list_forums','bbp_list_forumsNEWWWW',10);
function bbp_list_forumsNEWWWW( $args = '' ) {

	// Define used variables
	$output = $sub_forums = $topic_count = $reply_count = $counts = '';
	$i = 0;
	$count = array();

	// Parse arguments against default values
	$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array(
		'before'            => '<ul class="bbp-forums-list">',

	// Loop through forums and create a list
