[FreeWPress]

Try to disable it..

I think you have a plugin registering a post type incorrectly, and then core complains.

Content-single-topic.php is in plugin/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/

[FreeWPress]

Maybe… have you a cache plugin active? Try to disable all plugin and use only bbpress!!

If you search on google your problem you aren’t alone… many many sites have it but not with bbpress!!

Trying to sort my way through this. I have a dummy site set up on the same ISP. Running WP 3.7.1 and bbpress 2.5. Both a fresh install, and bbpress is working without an error.

So does that mean I may have a conflict with one of my plugins?

[Haz]

I have not heard back from the board in a while so I went ahead and did another uninstall and fresh install of bbpress. Before reinstalling bbpress again, I repaired and optimized my database and my site does not have any other errors.

I followed the exact steps in the book bbpress complete. I am running twenty-twelve theme with WP 3.7.1 and bbpress 2.5. I left all defaults in place and I still get the error when accessing topics.

Warning: Illegal offset type in isset or empty in /home/postpr7/public_html/aquariumcarebasics.com/wp-includes/post.php on line 1060

Unfortunately its still the same…

When the user logs-in he does in fact get the default Forum role. So that part works.

But even after I upgrade him to “Moderator” he can’t access the front en form, nor can he access the back-end “forum” menu.

On a side note, I noticed that upon deactivation of BBpress there is no option to remove the data stored in the database. Sure there are options to reset everything to a fresh install, but nothing that enables a user to rid the database of orphaned entries from a previous BBpress install. Do you have any insight as to why that feature isn’t offered?

[Stephen Edgar]

Sorry, hard to keep up with so many posts 😉

bbPress includes and importer for phpBB and with the size of your forum once you click ‘start’ it should be done in less than 30 seconds 🙂

You will lose very little, details of what is not converted is in the links below.

[Stephen Edgar]

Can you try this instead 😉

Either add this to your themes functions.php or your bbpress-functions.php or download the entire file and install it as a plugin from https://gist.github.com/ntwb/7767761

add_filter ( 'bbp_get_reply_post_date', ntwb_bbpress_enable_date_translation, 10, 6);
add_filter ( 'bbp_get_topic_post_date', ntwb_bbpress_enable_date_translation, 10, 6);
 
function ntwb_bbpress_enable_date_translation( $result, $reply_id, $humanize, $gmt, $date, $time ) {
 
	$date = get_post_time( get_option( 'date_format' ), $gmt, $reply_id, $translate = true );
	$result = sprintf( _x( '%1$s at %2$s', 'date at time', 'bbpress' ), $date, $time );
	return $result;
}

Hello again Stephen,

so here is what happens…

SHORTCODE SOLUTION
I inserted the [bbp-forum-form] shortcode and can see a forum creation form while logged is as KeyMaster. However, once logged in as “Moderator” I only get the following message

You cannot create new forums.

PLUGIN APPROACH
I installed the suggested plugin (which is very straight forward and easy to use BTW) Advanced user capability editing for bbPress.

Even though options are all set appropriately, the “Forum” menu will not display as long as the user is a “moderator”.

In order to be as thorough as possible, here are the tests I ran :

• Changed moderator’s WP user role to each available option (subscriber -> admin) and tested every time
• Used plugin’s reset to defaults button (essentially disabled everything)
• Added options to enable creating and editing forums

What i noticed is that the “Topics” and “Replies” menus react to BBpress user-role settings whereas the “Forum” menu does not. This might seem logical, but in my mind it validates the fact that BBpress roles are not entirely overridden or broken.

[Stephen Edgar]

Change your WordPress settings (/wp-admin/options-general.php) to whatever format you require, bbPress will inherit those settings.

[Stephen Edgar]

We also fully support showing FunCaptcha on bbPress topic creation and for replies.

Awesome 🙂

[Stephen Edgar]

Firstly, thanks for the detailed report, it really helps 🙂

This is actually a known issue with moderators and the back end.

The way around this is to use the [bbp-forum-form] shortcode, your moderator/s should have no problems creating new forums from a page setup with this shortcode.

Tried editing role with Capability Manager Enhanced

I am not familiar with this tool and it’s compatibility with bbPress.

A great tool from @johnjamesjacoby is this one Advanced user capability editing for bbPress

[mistercyril]

Hello,

I am experiencing BBPress role issues with a WP + BP + BBPress setup.

I need a “moderator” role to be able to create new forums and edit his own, as per the standard permissions defined here : http://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/

Moderator

Forum Capabilities

• publish_forums
• edit_forums
• read_private_forums
• read_hidden_forums

Unfortunately, the “moderator” role doesn’t see the “Forum” menu in the WordPress back-end, and even if its pages are accessed directly, there is a message stating the user does not have permission to accès the content.

So I understand that this may be a permissions issue, but i’ve taken a number of steps to circumvent this, and still no solution in sight :

• Disable all other plugins and use standard WP theme
• Upgrade BBpress to V 2.5
• Tried every single “repair forum” tool in plugin preferences
• Tried activating-deactivating and reactivating “default user role” setting
• Tried editing role with Capability Manager Enhanced
• Tried with a fresh install of WordPress

From what i’ve gathered on-line, the BBpress team has introduced a new way of storing user roles but there isn’t very much information on how it REALLY works and how to make it compatible with an existing site that upgrades to a new version of BBpress.

Anyway, has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

I would appreciate any input,

C.

[FunCaptcha]

Hello,

We’ve just added full support for bbPress to FunCaptcha: http://wordpress.org/plugins/funcaptcha/

You can try a demo of FunCaptcha on our site, but signup is easiest through the WordPress Plugin for your WordPress sites!

Let me know if you have any further requests for FunCaptcha using bbPress!

Kind regards,
FunCaptcha team

Do you mean if I have the odd and even classes on the bbpress.css?

No, in the code I posted above the 2nd last class on the 1st line of each entry has even, every second one of these should be ‘odd’ and I am trying to see if there is any correlation betwen these two issues.

[eduardosilva]

Hello Stephen, thanks for your feedback

So far, I just noticed this issue after edits.
Do you mean if I have the odd and even classes on the bbpress.css?

#bbpress-forums div.even,
#bbpress-forums ul.even {
background-color: #fff;
}

#bbpress-forums div.odd,
#bbpress-forums ul.odd {
background-color: #fbfbfb;
}

I found this on the css, but I’m not sure if this is what you are looking for.
I didn’t changed any template or php file.

Thank you! 🙂

No, this isn’t really what bbPress was designed to do.

I would take a look at something like https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce/

[Stephen Edgar]

I am not not sure if this is a bug or not, my CSS skills are not that great.

If we removed it I am not sure how this would affect template compat in other themes.

I would suggest adding a custom bbpress.css file to your theme with the ‘overflow: hidden’ removed/commented out.

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topics,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-forums,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-search-results {
	font-size: 12px;
/*	overflow: hidden; */
	border: 1px solid #eee;
	margin-bottom: 20px;
	clear: both;
}

Also if you want to create a ticket on Trac https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ we can look into it further.

I can’t seem to reproduce this issue, I can clearly see it @eduardosilva forum thread linked to above.

Here is the basic layout of the CSS classes of @eduardosilva topic linked above

1. post-18012 topic type-topic status-publish hentry even bbp-parent-forum-4 bbp-parent-topic-18012 bbp-reply-position-1 user-id-6181 topic-author
2. post-18014 reply type-reply status-publish hentry even bbp-parent-forum-4 bbp-parent-topic-18012 bbp-reply-position-2 user-id-2
3. post-18031 reply type-reply status-publish hentry even bbp-parent-forum-4 bbp-parent-topic-18012 bbp-reply-position-5 user-id-6181 topic-author
4. post-18037 reply type-reply status-publish hentry even bbp-parent-forum-4 bbp-parent-topic-18012 bbp-reply-position-7 user-id-6181 topic-author
5. post-18046 reply type-reply status-publish hentry even bbp-parent-forum-4 bbp-parent-topic-18012 bbp-reply-position-8 user-id-2
6. post-18029 reply type-reply status-publish hentry even bbp-parent-forum-4 bbp-parent-topic-18012 bbp-reply-position-3 user-id-6181 topic-author
7. post-18033 reply type-reply status-publish hentry even bbp-parent-forum-4 bbp-parent-topic-18012 bbp-reply-position-6 user-id-2

The order currently being shown using bbp-reply-position- is 1, 2, 5, 7, 8, 3, 6 and it should be 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8.

Every post has a class of even when every second post should be odd based on the source code here, this is also something I cannot reproduce. This is also a sitewide issue on all the topics on @eduardosilva forums.

Anyone else with this issue can you confirm it is also ONLY after a reply has been edited?

Also do you have odd & even in the CSS classes or all they all even?

I know this thread is 3 years old but what did you end up doing djtonyz? Desperately trying to get the Ning forum/discussions JSON file ANYWHERE. Ideally BuddyPress and/or bbPress of course. Any insight anyone!?

[diayz]

Hi, I want to know a good theme for users to post quotes, poems, just in post format. And also integrate with BBpress. Thanks

[QTipPoker]

I’m not sure if this is the correct forum for this, but I don’t see a better option.

I installed bbpress on my site a couple weeks ago. Since then, I’ve had a few dozen people register on my site; however, no one has posted anything. I’m wondering if this is normal. Are there just signup bots for some reason? If so, is there some danger associated with bots signing up? New to this whole thing, so any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Have recently updated to v2.5. The Subscribe and Unsubscribe feature is great but on my board the text appears in an odd position, please see picture here.

Is there an easy way to fix this?

Regards,
Marc

[Karnifexx]

At the moment I receive the following type of email due to my bbPress subscription:

From: WordPress <wordpress@mysite.com>
Title: [[SiteTitle]] [Post Title]
Content: [Post Content]

Is it possible for me to customise any of these fields without affecting the appearance of the site?

Regards,
Marc

[webop]

Sorry, problem is solved.

another plugin (Conditional Widgets V. 1.6) don´t functioned with bbpress
