Ok, that’s pretty weird, your other forums appear to work fine as do topics even in that forum.

Can you try switching to the Twenty Thirteen theme and see if it still occurs.

Also can you try changing the ‘Topics per page’ setting for bbPress down to 2 or 3 and see how that behaves (try this with both your theme and the Twenty Thirteen theme).

[Oken]

I was directed to this topic when I asked about the particular features this customization was said to have solved. I too have also tried to follow the directions and entered the codes from this post, but to no avail. I get the same crashed website.

Here’s where I put each peace of code. Maybe someone can point out where I went all wrong.

http://pastebin.com/GLhCHYze – I put this in my functions.php file.

http://pastebin.com/8K0pkKs5 – I put this in my theme’s bbpress/loop-single-forum.php file.

http://pastebin.com/FGptZmiQ – I put this in my theme’s bbpress/loop-single-topic.php file.

As someone mentioned, The creator of this code seems to have a stand alone version of bbpress instead of the plugin type that I use with Buddypress. Perhaps this is why it hasn’t worked for a few folks. I’d be interested to hear from someone that has Buddypress installed on their copy of wordpress and have successfully been able to make the customization work for them in their template files. If we could hear how they went about installing the code, it might help out some that might be stuck.

Many thanks in advance! 🙂

Hi All,

I am having the exact same issue. When a topic is started the new post content is not being displayed so what my users are doing is posting a ‘reply’ with the same content and then it appears. Although – what is really happening is they are posting twice!

So – a new topic is being created, along with the link to the topic in the forum but when a user clicks on it there is not content.

I have tried the css fixes to no avail and am not using the WP-WishList plugin as indicated in some other similar bbPress.org forum posts. Any ideas would be helpful!

Mod: I moved this to it’s own topic as it was not the same issue as the original topic.

Hello!

I am looking into using bbPress as a discussion forum. I do have WooCommerce already running on the website, through which people can make accounts. To be clear: I do not have any intention to use bbPress as “product support” for the shop, which I see a lot of people discussing here. The forum is not intended to be a place to just discuss products or be a support/ticket system.

My question is this: will users have to make two accounts – one for the Woocommerce shop, one for the forum – if I install bbPress? Or is there a way to integrate the two accounts into one universal login? I am sorry if a thread already answered this, but I couldn’t find it.

Thanks for your help!

I like to include one category from BBPress inside of my wordpress page.
How to do that?
Many thanks.

Hi, my website is http://www.findgreatness.com and I am using Kopatheme circle, I have installed and setup a page with forums as the permalink and the bbpress short code, and added two forums to see how it looks. Although I can see some format with the forums if I add them additionally as a drop down menu, I cannot see the table format on the forum index page. Any help appreciated, thanks, Andy.

Hello all,

On my website i’m trying to use the wp-editor as editor for my bbpress forum (always latest stable version). I use the same code as I use for my WP comments section (to keep the appearances the same).

The code I use does show the tinymce, doesn’t “parse” the content though (with an “ERROR: Your reply cannot be empty” as result.

My guess is that I haven’t found the right parameters (***) in the wp_editor function. Help is much appreciated.

Regards.

Marc

 
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor' );
function bbp_enable_visual_editor( $args ) {
	wp_editor( '****', '****', array(
		'media_buttons' => true, // show insert/upload button(s) to users with permission
		'textarea_rows' => '10', // re-size text area
		'dfw' => false, // replace the default full screen with DFW (WordPress 3.4+)
		'tinymce' => array(
        	'theme_advanced_buttons1' => 'bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,bullist,numlist,code,blockquote,link,unlink,outdent,indent,|,undo,redo,fullscreen',
	        'theme_advanced_buttons2' => '', // 2nd row, if needed
        	'theme_advanced_buttons3' => '', // 3rd row, if needed
        	'theme_advanced_buttons4' => '' // 4th row, if needed
  	  	),
		'quicktags' => array(
 	       'buttons' => 'strong,em,link,block,del,ins,img,ul,ol,li,code,close'
	    )
	) );
}

This is my second time posting this. There has been no response to my first post. I do apologize for reposting but this seems like a critical error.

I have correctly installed the current version of bbPress(Version 2.5.2). In my WP-Admin panel, the Forums tab does not exist. There is nothing. The only evidence I have to show that bbPress is installed is the widgets DO show up in my widgets section. I eagerly want to use this product, however if i can’t create a Forum page then this product is pointless. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

My site is BudgetDr.com

I’m seeing the same thing.

Anybody find a fix?

[inspirationally]

Hey there,

I have a problem I can’t find a solution for (all latest versions, but it was the same before) at deppheads.com:

Every few seconds, I can see a new revision coming up in the database. I just removed the revisions of the last month and there were over 50000! I mean my forums have a few hundred thousand posts, and they are some kind of reply/topic revisions to existing posts/topics as copies of existing replies (I think). Very curious.

I have no idea how to disable them from being created. I already set auto_save to define('AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL', 86400);

and added

add_action('admin_init', 'disable_revisions');
function disable_revisions(){
       remove_post_type_support('revision', 'revisions');
 remove_post_type_support('topic', 'revisions');
    remove_post_type_support('reply', 'revisions');
}

to my functions.php, but they still appear.

And I disabled revisions for bbpress posts in the settings page.

Any ideas??

Visitors are allowed to post, and I’d like to keep it like that, because it is also my comments system and I know many would not comment if they needed to register.

Here are the last 20 exported as sql (couln’t copy it in, so as a link:)

http://deppheads.com/insert.txt

Here one example of the “parent” http://deppheads.com/forums/reply/359207/

[Mailhilfe]

I know that is possible to outcomment these parts

add_filter( ‘bbp_get_reply_content’,’bbp_rel_nofollow’, 50 );
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_topic_content’,’bbp_rel_nofollow’, 50 );

in the bbpress/includes/core/filters.php

But I want to set only internal links to do follow, external should to on nofollow.

How I can do it?

Hello!

I am using the default template of bbpress and I’d like to customize it

My issue is divisible in 3 parts:

1- I’d like to cut off the “add your reply form” from the bottom of the comments list
2- I’d like to make a custom page with the form, which I’ve seen I can make with a shortcode
3- I’ll need to build up a button “post reply” on the topic page, which I think it will have to pass to the form page a variable with the id of the topic, otherwise it won’t be possible for that form to append the reply to the correct topic, isn’t it?

I think I’ve found where to cut off the displaying of the form but I’d like you to confirm before I make mess. is it in this file:
bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-single-topic.php
and if I’d like to cut off the form from the topics archive lists as well, the file should be this:
bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-single-forum.php

point 2 should be easy, but I am wondering how I’ll have to pass the variable of the topic which has to be commented.. anyone can explain me how this works?

in point 3 I have no idea.. I’ve browsed millions of files today and found millions of functions and hooks so I don’t know which I have to use and how. by instance I’ve found a bb_get_forum_id() and a get_forum_id() and who knows if there are more similar that I’ve missed. which has to be used to retrive the current topic id? and how it has to be used?

Thank you very much for reading this topic, I hope someone will help me.
Cheers!

Hello!

I have a client who wants to display the bbpress sidebar in the forum pages in a different way.
He want to make it narrow and with smaller fonts.

the problem is that the bbpress sidebar is registered with no particular wrapper id, so if I edit the css, all the sidebars in the website will be changed and not only the forum one.

I am looking to find the file where the sidebar is registered, in order to alter the code and add a specific id (like #bbpress-sidebar) to the sidebar, so I’ll be able to make a custom css for the sidebar sub-classes only for the children of that id.

I’ve looked into millions of files but I haven’t found it, can someone please help me?
Thanx!
Andrea

Hi guys,

I have a weird problem – no changes made to the site or plugins what so ever. bbpress worked just fine. But from one day to another my main forum/category does not load correctly anymore. So all others still show without problems, but the main forum just shows up blank. Could this be a server issue? I have contacted admin, but he says all ok from server side.

Have a look here: Regular loading forum (as it should look): bit.ly/19YsTma

Not working forum: bit.ly/19YsU9K

Any ideas or suggestions? May bbpress be running into memory issues or so? This is the forum with the mosts topipcs and replies…but not aure if that is the reason for the problem.

I already tried resaving permalinks and settings, nothing helped. Wp debug also did not show up anything unusual.

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate your help,
Peter

You probably want to use bbp_get_user_profile_url rather than comment_author_url

bbp_get_user_profile_url

[Stephen Edgar]

Take a look the codex for all the options available for bb_list_forums also.

bbp_list_forums

An advanced way of doing this is also in this gist https://gist.github.com/ntwb/3133449 which is based on @lynq topic here https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/customising-bbp_list_forums-last-poster-block/

Hi friends,

I’m attempting to convert over from Vanilla 2.0 to bbPress. I’d like to test first on my local machine, so I’m trying the Import Forums option in my local WP install.

My question: Should there be any problem importing from a live instance to my local?

I’m in PHPMyAdmin and quadruple checking all my settings, so as far as I can tell, I’m inputting all the database settings within bbPress correctly. Sadly, once I start the conversion, I get the “No xxxxxx” set of errors.

What are some common database setting mistakes, just in case I might be overlooking some options? Also, could it be that I’m importing to my local machine and that’s causing the problem (I assume not)?

Let me know if I can provide any more info to make this easier (screenshots, server info, etc)

Thanks!

[WPDragon]

Can this bbpress Layout still be used?…or would there be issues with latest version of bbpress & wordpress?

Please reply…thanks.

[Stephen Edgar]

Oops, my bad 😉 This is the link:

Non-functional index page when bbpress 2.1RC4 is used with WooThemes Canvas 5.05

In particular the last couple of posts ‘supposedly’ link to some info over at Woo Themes so you should be able to look into some of the suggestions in that topic and the links mentioned there.

[Stephen Edgar]

You shouldn’t be seeing this, I just tried to reproduce this and can’t.

The repair tool ‘Recalculate last activity in each topic and forum’ explicitly does the repair on this when things get out of sync.

We’ve been tweaking this particular section of bbPress for the next release and I have been up to my eyeballs in this particular piece of bbPress :O

So speaking of ticket #1925 I have to have another look in the next few days in regard to imported topics and replies and I will see if I can find anything related to your issue whilst I’m at it.

Once I get the server error, other pages after 10 also have problems. But if I bypass 10 at the start, I can seem to get to other higher numbered pages.

That is a great idea. I certainly can simply export it into another blog that is already installed without any trouble! Thanks for the suggestion!

I did a follow up post about the 500 Server Error, see the post “PHP 5.3 Error.” This is something I found out this morning. My webhost support went into the dashboard this morning to figure out the 500 server error. He told me bbPress is throwing this error because 5.3 was deprecated and removed from the server. He tried 5.2 and 5.4 but that bbPress is throwing the error under both versions.
my best

I am pretty sure this is NOT a PHP issue, WordPress only requires PHP v5.2.4 or above and bbPress follows WordPress’ requirements.

As to future versions of PHP v5.4 & v5.5 are supported and the only known issue I know of at the moment is a MySQL warning with PHP v5.5.

I am still not sure what the issue actually is but I follow it up further with you on the other thread where I have already written a reply.

[Stephen Edgar]

This is extremely and most likely related to your previous issue here.

There is a discussion here on bbPress with the Canvas theme that might help you get it fixed.
