Just replying to myself on here, given the lack of interaction, with the solution to this.

Place the following code in your theme’s functions.php – this will allow mapping of a particular WLM membership level to the bbPress Participant level:

function map_bbpress_user_role(){
	//get the user class
	$cu = wp_get_current_user();
	$cu_roles = $cu->roles; //get the user roles
	if(in_array("administrator", $cu_roles)) return; //disregard if admin

	$isplatinumplus =  in_array("platinumplus", $cu_roles); //check if it has platinumplus role
	$isblocked = array_search(bbp_get_blocked_role(),$cu_roles); //check if it has bbp_blocked role

	if($isplatinumplus){ //if it has platinumplus role
		$cu->add_role(bbp_get_participant_role()); //add aparticipant role

		if($isblocked !== false){ //if it has bbp_blocked role
			$cu->remove_role(bbp_get_blocked_role()); //remove it
		}
	}elseif($isblocked === false){ //if he is not platinumplus and dont have bbp_blocked
		/*
		* 	This part makes sure that only platinumplus roles have access to the forum
		*/
		$cu->add_role(bbp_get_blocked_role()); //add bbp_blocked
	}
}
add_action('init','map_bbpress_user_role');

I used the Members plugin to create a platinumplus user role that then mapped to the WLM level of the same name, and the above code then mapped that role to the appropriate bbPress one. Obvs, any instances of ‘platinumplus’ have to be amended to the role you are intending to map.

My wordpress is 3.6.1 version.
My bbPress is 2.4 version.
My Permalink setting is http://mySite.com/sample-post/.

I`m Korean.
Problem is ..
I wrote a topic and save the topic.
The topic list is good.
But I can`t click the topic of Korean Title. (404 error)
Because the topic URL is http://ccnb.co.kr/forums/topic/%C7%D1%B1%DB/.

In this site, I wrote a topic of Korean and can click the topic.
Help me please.

I have the following bbPress rewrite rules:

users/([^/]+)/edit/?$ index.php?bbp_user=$matches[1]&edit=1
users/([^/]+)/?$ index.php?bbp_user=$matches[1]
view/([^/]+)/page/?([0-9]{1,})/?$ index.php?bbp_view=$matches[1]&paged=$matches[2]
view/([^/]+)/feed/?$ index.php?bbp_view=$matches[1]&feed=$matches[2]
view/([^/]+)/?$ index.php?bbp_view=$matches[1]
search/page/?([0-9]{1,})/?$ index.php?paged=$matches[1]

$matches[1] = user_nicename

Instead of user_nicename I would like to have display_name.

I was playing in bbpress/includes/users/template-tags.php and managed to rewrite all user profile rules like I want, but when I access any of the user profile pages, the link (href) will disappear.

I would like to know if there is a way to rewrite the above rules from functions.php file?

[joyanne1960]

I’ve looked everywhere, tried different editing times, but I can’t edit posts from the forum interface, only from the admin interface.

Is there anyone here who actively monitors the troubleshooting for users with issues? I’m not seeing any decent care from bbpress.org folks.

[Gravuj Miklos Henrich]

Hi,

Is there a way to have an URL like http://www.domain.com/users/firstname_lastname/ insteand of http://www.domain.com/users/username ?

Or which is the file where I should play?

Thanks in advance!

but
If I reply to another thread does not work correctante.
I can not write in visual mode, I do I can write in text mode

Please, I can give my some solution?

If I disable the TinyMCE visual mode does work

Hi

My problems had been solved on theme

Ok, I’ve found that the bbpress tweaks sidebar can fail to work although populated. I have had this afger doing updates to themes and/or wodpress.

No idea why, but the following seems to fix it, so please try and PLEASE come back and say if successful or whether it’s just my installation.

1. Deactivate bbpress tweaks
Dashboard>plugins>bbpress tweaks>deactivate

2. Go into widgets
Dashboard>appearance>widgets

And look at the bottom of the left hand side. You’ll see an “inactive sidebar”, with your entries on
Below this is an “inactive widgets”
Drag all the entries from the inactive sidebar to the inactive widgets area.
This them allows wordpress to delete the sidebar
3. I normally log out and in again at this stage – probably not needed, but I’ve never bothered to check

Then basically reverse the above
4. Re-enable bbpress tweaks
You see the bbpress sidebar returns
5. Drag the entries back from the inactive widgets area to the sidebar

It then seems to function again

let us know if this works for you

About a week ago, I asked how to change the directory of the forum I’m setting up in dev. At the time, I had a bare install, and the response I received seemed to meet my needs.

However, this simply moved the index page. At this point, my database guy has started importing the data from my existing phpBB3 forum, and what seemed to be an elegant fix has left me with the same problem I had before. The index page looks great, but when you click through to ANY category or forum, the board immediately takes you from:

Home/Classrooms/Forums

Which is the setup I need, to…

Home/Forums

Which is going to dump my signed-in students outside of the classroom when they use the breadcrumbs.

Basically, I need to find a way to have my forum and topic posts and their hierarchy recognize the Classroom page as their parent. Or something that will give me the same result when my users try to navigate the breadcrumbs back to their classes.

Hello all,

I am running wordpress 3.61 with bbpress 2.4.

My readers often subscribe to topics and receive all email notifications when anyone posts in the topic.

Yesterday when I was posting it suddenly stopped sending email alerts to readers but just for my replies. Everyone else was getting them including me for all others. Later it started working all by itself again.

This morning the same thing happened. It just affected my replies as everyone else including me were getting everyones replies on that topic.

I searched for the problem and I just could not find it.

Then I looked at my replies to see if there was some connection between yesterday and today.

Then I noticed both times it was after I made 2 very quick posts in succession within a minute or so.

Is this some anti spam kicking in built into wordpress/bbpress. It cannot be my webhost as bbpress is using the same SMTP server throughout for all and teh email alerts carry on working for all, just they do not get any for any further replies I make in that thread for a while.

Any help appreciated as this is indeed intriguing.

@netweb sorry for the long delayed answer, I just tryied your file, and it is great, to much better than mine 😀

[dexterindustries]

I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this: I (as admin) and other non-admins can’t seem to see fresh contents of the forum without logging in and logging out.

For example, if I reply to a post on a thread, I can succesfully post with no problems. However, to be able to see the updated thread, with the post I just made, I need to log out and log back in.

I have WP 3.6.1 running.
bbPress v 2.4
bbPress Custom Reply Notifications 1.0.1
” New Topic Notifications 1.1
” Notify 0.2.1
” Threaded Replies 0.4.3
” Signature 1.1

My site is http://www.dexterindustries.com/forum

(Also a note of thanks: this is an awesome piece of software and was super-easy to get going. Thanks for making it!!)

I am using bbPress Version 2.4 and WordPress 3.6.1. I am using the Twenty Eleven theme v1.6.

On my page http://www.deadfate.com/forums/ I don’t have the sidebar that displays on every other page on my site. How can I add that? I am new to using wordpress so the more details the better.

Thanks in advance.

I am using bbPress Version 2.4 and WordPress 3.6.1. I am using the Twenty Eleven theme v1.6.

On my page http://www.deadfate.com/forums/ the cookie crumb says “About Us>Forums”. I want to change the ‘About Us’ to ‘Home’. The About Us already links to the homepage, but the text is wrong.

How can I change that?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have installed bbPress and I was wondering …

– I only want the forum to be visible when a user has logged in, so any one except anonymous can see the forums… (i mean the page where you can actually see the forums & topics ..)

– I also want the widget with the forum categories to be visible only for the logged in users (I’ve done this with dynamic widgets)

– and finally I want the menu-item that points to the forums also only visible to any one except anonymous …

– the contents of the forum should not be indexed by search engines, i think i can do this with robots.txt?

thanks !

[Stephen Edgar]

@shrewdies Thanks for that, nice read, will help on decision making for Microdata support in bbPress.

bbPress blocks shortcodes by default.

You will need to use this plugin to setup ‘allowed’ shortcodes:

I’ve installed bbpress, WordPress 3.6.1 and 2.4 for bbpress, and when I goto open the forum i get this error “Fatal error: Class ‘WP_Post’ not found in D:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress-test\wp-content\plugins\bbpress\includes\core\theme-compat.php on line 375”

Anyone encountered this before and know how to fix it? I’ve searched the forums but came up empty.

Thanks!

[Frank_F19]

I just installed bbPress and I’m having this odd issue where sticky posts will display but regular topic posts will not.

For example, if I have 3 topics and one is sticky it will say “this forum contains 3 topics” but only the sticky topic will display.

I’ve tried posting topics using different accounts (both administrative and regular) with no luck. Any idea why only sticky topics would display?

[CraigM1970]

Okay, I managed to work this out for myself eventually. It was quite simple once I realised I was dealing with the Teeny version. Doh!

For anyone else who wants to add the Visual editor and also have it only paste plain text from Word etc. here’s how.

/*  Enable visual editor on tinymce in bbPress  */

function bbp_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
    $args['tinymce'] = true;
    return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor' );

/* Enable TinyMCE paste plugin */

function bbp_add_paste_plugin($args) {
  array_push($args,'paste');
  return $args;
}
add_filter( 'teeny_mce_plugins', 'bbp_add_paste_plugin');

/* Enable paste_sticky as default */

function bbp_myformatTinyMCE($in) {
	$in['paste_text_sticky'] = true;
	$in['paste_text_sticky_default'] = true;
   return $in;
}
add_filter('teeny_mce_before_init', 'bbp_myformatTinyMCE');

I am using the latest install of wordpress, buddypress and bbpress as well as gravity forms. I am needing to place a Gravity From inside a private bbpress forum topic as this form is meant to be seen only by members of this private buddypress group. When using the typical “add form” button at the top of the edit topic page which adds the shortcode to embed the form it places the shortcode there but then the shortcode is the only thing that appears when viewing the topic, not the intended form. Is shortcode not the way to do this and if not what is the best way to proceed to allow only members of this private group access to this form?

[Angel Candelaria]

Hi @lomyn.

On the bbPress install package, there should be a file called bbpress.css (under bbpress/templates/default/css). Just extract that file from the package, add the code at the end of the file, and copy it to your theme’s css directory.
