Hi, great job guys.. 😉
I have a little problem with widget in sidebar, it not show the date and the author.. after upgrade to 2.4
It is only a my problems? Thanks…
@media (max-width:767px){
.bbp-reply-author { float: none; }
.bbp-reply-content { margin-left: 0; padding: 12px; }
}
Something like that.
Is there a way to edit the code to make this happen?
haha yea! So far for me, BBpress is a mixed bag. Its simple alright! You need to add in a lot of stuff to make it come near the other forum softwares. But the big advantage is the integration with WordPress <3
And here I was thinking tis just me who’s unhappy with the built-in widgets.
I used to love the bbpress versions below 2.x – there where plenty of plugins available to it to make it jump through loops and hoops but since 2.x most of those don’t work anymore.
I’m just wondering that nobody except you is interested in this issue 🙁
Anyone out here knows what to put in the navigation bar to re direct the user to his bbpress profile?
Hello!
Does anyone know how to add; Favorites + Subscriptions to the menu.. like it is on bbpress site?
Thanks for a nice release.
Upgrade went smoothly.
although, it seems my child theme blocks hierarchical replies’ 🙁
but not a problem for now. glad about the small speed improvements
yhmm something strange happened to that code.. 🙁
After weeks trying to find something that would work, I found the code on wordpress forums to remove completely gravatars (and redirects it was causing.. )
here is it:
function bp_remove_gravatar ($image, $params, $item_id, $avatar_dir, $css_id, $html_width, $html_height, $avatar_folder_url, $avatar_folder_dir) {
$default = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/images/mystery-man.jpg';
if( $image && strpos( $image, "gravatar.com" ) ){
return '<img src="' . $default . '" alt="avatar" />';
} else {
return $image;
}
}
add_filter('bp_core_fetch_avatar', 'bp_remove_gravatar', 1, 9 );
function remove_gravatar ($avatar, $id_or_email, $size, $default, $alt) {
$default = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/images/mystery-man.jpg';
return "<img alt='{$alt}' src='{$default}' height='{$size}' width='{$size}' />";
}
add_filter('get_avatar', 'remove_gravatar', 1, 5);
function bp_remove_signup_gravatar ($image) {
$default = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/images/mystery-man.jpg';
if( $image && strpos( $image, "gravatar.com" ) ){
return '<img src="' . $default . '" alt="avatar" width="60" height="60" />';
} else {
return $image;
}
}
add_filter('bp_get_signup_avatar', 'bp_remove_signup_gravatar', 1, 1 );
As I am now planning to disable buddypress completely. I am looking for an easy way to let users upload their avatars in bbpress, anyone tried it already?
Hello
Since this update, I can not publish or respond to a topic with the moderator or administrator status.
Regards
hmm, i just noticed the same thing on one of my test sites still site running 2.3.2, no bbpress admin tabs except for gd sub items, so i suppose this is OT for 2.4, must be something on my end, sorry
thanks for the update on permissions, Tehnik-bbPress-Permissions seems to be the best solution for now but i am always afraid it might break with a bbpress update, and it requires yet another plugin besides…
https://github.com/ZanderAdam/Tehnik-bbPress-Permissions
I cannot reproduce the issue of missing bbPress wp-admin panels with any of these plugins: GD bbPress Attachments, GD bbPress Tools, GD bbPress Widgets, that’s not to say it isn’t happening. I will keep an eye on Milan Petrovic’s Twitter feed to see if he comes across any issues himself.
Permissions and caps with bbPress is a hard (for me anyway) to grasp at a code level, I do know that essentially bbPress is ahead of WordPress in some ways in this aspect and the fact that bbPress is built on top of WordPress this is going to constantly evolve. The ‘other’ forum packages that are available do have finer granular permissions but none of them integrate with WordPress the way bbPress does (I am up to my 27th forum converter now BTW).
These bits will come, hopefully sooner rather than later and the dev’s that contribute code for bbPress are acutely aware of this type of feature request and I am quite sure it is kept in their mind as code is written for anything for example as mentioned above ‘Per-forum moderation’ & ‘Forum subscriptions’ slated for bbPress 2.5, these two features alone make for a great start in getting more of the types of features you are referring to.
“bbPress is forum software with a twist, from the creators WordPress”
thanks stephen 🙂
might not be a bad idea to put the changelog info or link in top post too, the trac might be kind of confusing for the less experienced
i have updated to 2.4 from 2.3.2 on a few different test sites and have noticed that in some cases, the forums, topics and replies tabs in wp admin disappear, w gd tools and attachments plugins enabled only gd options in forum tab otherwise no forum tab at all, or the others
i tried disabling all other plugins etc but only disabling and reenabling bbpress restored the tabs
main site i updated went fine, admin tabs did not disappear, mostly same plugins, the sites that went odd also all had buddypress installed
for permissions and caps etc, i think it should be a basic feature to have a simple way to create multiple levels of private forums for logged in users – private forums for admins, mods, members, public forums for non-members, etc, basically some type of granular permissions allowing groups and forum access per group membership based on wp user role perhaps, similar to phpbb etc, this is standard w most other forums but currently this is still real tricky w bbpress…
any chance we might we see something along these lines in an upcoming release ?
The file is located in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default
If you edit this file manually when you update bbPress your changes will be lost.
The link above in my post shows the steps needed to copy this template to your own theme so you can use your own custom templates without bbPress overriding it during updates.
Sorry… Im new so i dont know where i can find feedback-no-forums.php 🙁
Sorry for troubling you
@sam-rohn Thanks, I added a link to the blog post 🙂
The changes to “Improved user capability integration” shouldn’t break any existing solutions out there doing forum restrictions. bbPress 2.5 is going to focus on performance though with ‘Per-forum moderation’ & ‘Forum subscriptions’ slated also for 2.5 this will bring us closer to better forum management for users.
btw, it was in the blog post that “replacing comments with bbPress topics” in 2.5 was mentioned
bbPress 2.4 Released
if you are reading this in the forum and not on the blog (this thread appears as blog post comments and a stand alone topic in the forum), you would not see the blog post or the info therein
maybe a good idea to also link to blog post and list changelog in this type of new version announcement topic, seems lots of forum-centric folks like myself miss some things the way they are, should help avoid such confusion
thanks again 🙂
sam
any specific info on bbpress 2.4 “Improved user capability integration” listed in the changelog ?
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/changelog/
will it bring us any closer to being able to easily restrict access to specific forums and posts/replies contained therein to a specific user role without any 3rd party plugins or hacks, or might this new change break any existing methods of creating such per user role forums ?
thanks for the update, i will be installing on at least one site very soon 🙂
sam
Great version! I will update our website today 😀
Hi there. We’re working on a fix now, and it will be included in 2.4.1.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2405/
The newest version of bbPress has caused a couple of my sites plugins/short-codes to display incorrectly. The plugin in question is Cookie Law Info, it appears to remove it format i.e. no button image and text not centred etc. Also the short-codes for my elegant themes, theme do not appear to be displaying correctly either.
