Yes!

It works. I just deleted the /wp-content/plugins/bbpress directory and uploaded it again!

But… I have another problem. My permalinks are set to /%postname%/, but when clicking a link on the website that is moved, I get a 404 error.

I have opened a topic about this at the Dutch support forums for WordPress, you can find it here:
https://nl.forums.wordpress.org/topic/probleem-met-permalinks-1?replies=1#post-302387

Thanks for the help!

Hi!

I noticed a strange behaviour in the freshness column for the latest post link – sometimes it is
/forum/topic/topicname/page/2/#post-391430
but sometimes it’s just
/forum/topic/topicname/#post-391523

In first case, the link takes me to the latest post, in second case the link just leads to the first page of discussion, even though there are 440 pages! This really bugs my users and I can’t seem to find the solution. Every bit of advice is helpful!

I use WordPress 3.6 and bbPress 2.4. The problem can be seen at http://www.kilb.ee/foorum/sisu/mnemomaraton/mnemomaraton-2/ (in the rightmost column) and it also occurs with TwentyEleven theme.

@johnjamesjacoby
do bbpress and buddypress work better in 2.4
Does buddypress / bbpress seo Better

I have a buddypress site with bbpress as the forum running in groups but for some reason buddypress give all pages the same title tags, even the bbpress pages(forums, topics), all posts and topics have the same titles.

but it works fine in the forum section without buddypress,

Hello,

I have a website which I have added the bbpress plugin too (wordpress).

The website is split into three areas which are completely unrelated.

1. An info site
2. Forum 1
3. Forum 2

Forum one is done.

Now I need to add a second forum with completely different catagories of topics etc.

How can I achieve this with BB press. Each ‘main forum’ has about 30 forum catagories under them but both main forums are completely unrelated. Both forums have the same logins for users.

Any help would be amazing.

[John Romaine]

Hmm, it seems Buddy Press does exactly what I need.

[John Romaine]

Hi guys,
I’m currently using bbpress in conjunction with s2member, and wanted to ask if there was any way of making the members profile page a bit more aesthetically pleasing?

My profile pages at the moment, are just awful. See below.

http://www.bringthedonuts.com/temp/profile.gif

I don’t mind having a look at this myself, but which file/page do I edit?

Better yet, is there a profile page plugin or something that can help with this?

I was going to simply integrate buddypress, but I will only do that if absolutely necessary.

Thanks guys,

John

As the topic says, bbPress v. 2.4 is removing all titles outside the forum. (on all pages)

This is how it looks with bbPress enabled: <title></title>
And with bbPress disabled: <title>A nice and SEO friendly title</title>

I’m running the Focus theme on Genesis Framework and I had no problems before upgrading.

This is going to damage my search engine positions, so I need this resolved quickly. Thanks.

Hi, is simple, you must to delete if ( ‘on’ === $settings[‘show_user’] ) : and other string.. In patch you must replace string not add same string after…

Delete all old string and replace it with string of patch…

[tina_sk]

Hi, i have problem with the patch – ticket 2319

in this code:

<?php while ( $widget_query->have_posts() ) :

				$widget_query->the_post();
				$topic_id    = bbp_get_topic_id( $widget_query->post->ID );
				$author_link = '';

				// Maybe get the topic author
				if ( 'on' === $settings['show_user'] ) :
				if ( $settings['show_user'] ) : 
					$author_link = bbp_get_topic_author_link( array( 'post_id' => $topic_id, 'type' => 'both', 'size' => 14 ) );
				<?php endif; ?>
				
				<li>
					<a class="bbp-forum-title" href="<?php bbp_topic_permalink( $topic_id ); ?>"><?php bbp_topic_title( $topic_id ); ?></a>

					<?php if ( ! empty( $author_link ) ) : ?>

						<?php printf( _x( 'by %1$s', 'widgets', 'bbpress' ), '<span class="topic-author">' . $author_link . '</span>' ); ?>

					<?php endif; ?>

					<?php if ( 'on' === $settings['show_date'] ) : ?>
					<?php if ( $settings['show_date'] ) : ?> 

						<div><?php bbp_topic_last_active_time( $topic_id ); ?></div>

					<?php endif; ?>

				</li>

			<?php endwhile; ?> 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENDWHILE in /home/.sites/261/site2485/web/forum/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/widgets.php on line 829

Can you help me; what´s wrong?

[J]

It is 3 years later and I am having the same issue. My entire wordpress system is set up with emails as the usernames.

You mentioned you found a workaround or figured it out. how did you do it?

The bbpress user profiles show the email address in the url and I was trying to get bbpress to use something else like display name or nickname instead.

Is there a way to do it?

Thanks

[Stephen Edgar]

Ha! I didn’t do anything, it was all you, glad it’s working now. 🙂

[Stephen Edgar]

ETA: Wow, that was fast— my page got slammed with spam comments within minutes of posting the links here. I have removed them for now. If a support person needs them to diagnose the issue, I can give them out then.

I have heard this a couple of times, I might set up a test myself, not sure what we can do though as presumably the spammers are just scrapping bbpress.org

[jgasparine]

Forgive me, I am a little new to WordPress. I tried to look for /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress, but don’t know where to look for this Auto-Role string. The option IS enabled under the settings menu.

I did, however, make some other discoveries:

1) Auto role is still working for some users that sign-up for the site, but not others. Can’t seem to figure out the common element for those instances where it works/doesn’t work.

2) Auto role seems to work for everyone once I deactivate my Register Plus Redux plugin (v3.9.10).

It is worth noting that there was no issue with Auto Role between Register Plus Redux v3.9.10 and bbPress v2.3.2. The issue only cropped-up after upgrading to bbPress v2.4

Any help that you can provide would be appreciated as I would really like to keep using Register Plus Redux.

[John James Jacoby]

Sounds like your files didn’t all copy over correctly. Try replacing your plugins/bbpress directory with a new copy.

Hello everyone!

I have a problem.
I have just moved my WordPress website from an ISP to another ISP.
But, I have a problem!
After moving the website I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bbp_get_topic_post_type() in /home/wdele/domains/carafec.nl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbpress.php on line 571

I have bbPress installed. Does someone have an idea how to fix this?
I would be very thankful!

Thank you in advance.

Have a good day,
William

[vtroia]

Sorry, I figured it out. The path was actually fine. Please ignore.

[vtroia]

I apologize in advance if this seems like a duplicate. I’ve read a number of posts on properly creating a BBPress theme, but my CSS refuses to load. Here is how I have things setup.

wp-content/
++++ main-theme-child/
++++ +++ bbpress.php
++++ +++ bbpress-functions.php
++++ +++ bbpress/ <- contains all of the files from the default theme.
++++ +++ css/bbpress.css

For whatever reason, the css won’t load. Any thoughts?

[blg002]

I would love to have an @mention autosuggest feature in the topic reply/create textarea. You probably know how this would work but quickly, when you type ‘@’ it would create a popup of the names of users and filters based on the characters after the ‘@’. Maybe it doesn’t even spawn until you have typed in at least a character or two.

There is a BuddyPress plugin that does exactly this: BP Labs. But it does not extend to the BBPress forums.

Is there anything like this out there that I’m missing?

[DAllisonLee]

Update: I just deactivated/reactivated both plugins, first the ed calendar then bbPress. And, now it all seems to be working! I’m not sure what you did, but THANK YOU!!!

Note: I noticed that there is now a “Forums Calendar,” a “Topics Calendar,” and a “Replies Calendar” on the fourms menu. I don’t recall those being there before?? The “Posts Calendar” (ed cal) has content, while the forum calendars are empty.

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for the follow up. When I deactivated and deleted the editorial calendar, the forums menu disappeared altogether. The forums shows up in settings, but the actual menu with all the forums, replies, and topics are removed from the left-side menu. I also deactivated all the plugins to see if that would make a difference and it didn’t.

Is it possible to control the order of topics on bbpress? or must they just appear in the order they are created?

[Sergio De Falco]

Hi people!
I need to apply some customizations to my bbPress forum.
First of all I need to remove the sidebar for the bbPress pages, what’s the right way to do this? maybe creating a conditional tag with “widget logic”, or assigning a custom page to the bbPress forum with a layout without the sidebar? Or editing some layout page into bbPress template?

Then I’d need to have the first page of the forum like here, with the latest topics, I found some ways to do this, but nothing appears to be the right way.

Thanks 🙂
