Can you update to the newly released version of bbPress 2.4 and let us know if it is still broken.

[Stephen Edgar]

It is in the feedback-no-forums.php template \templates\default\bbpress

If you want to modify this template for your theme here check out the docs on theme compat.

@sadr Here are the BuddyPress 2.4 related tickets, you can also the commit log for ‘/includes/extend/buddypress/’ within bbPress.

“replacing comments with bbPress topics” is part of 2.5′s scope.

Where exactly did you hear about that?

[Erlend]

Fantastic! Will be upgrading tomorrow.

Could you elaborate on what’s new/changed in the BuddyPress Group Forum integration?

Also very excited to hear “replacing comments with bbPress topics” is part of 2.5’s scope. I checked to see if there was an enhancement issue I could start to follow yet but there doesn’t seem to be one. Will check in again later then.

p.s. you gotta remove the last slash in the Trac link to make it valid.

Thanks JJJ!

I have just updated bbPress to 2.4 on a site running the latest version of the Genesis framework. When bbPress is activated, all posts and pages lose their titles – I just get a dash and the site title in the page source. This happens with all other plugins deactivated and with any Genesis child theme, as well as the naked framework itself. This was not an issue prior to the 2.4 release of bbPress earlier today. Any ideas for what I can do to fix this?

Hello hello,

This is my first post so sorry if i post it in the wrong place :$

I wanted to hide my forum by default,I achieved this. Having achieved this, my question: Where in earth do I change the friendly “Oh bother! No forums were found here!” message???? Can’t find it anywhere! I am using bbpress 2.4

Thanks in advance

Hi there

I used the code in my themes function.php file, as detailed above and it worked perfectly. That is, until I upgraded to 2.4 a few minutes ago, now the open forums changed position with the private ones (no problem) but the subforums are back listed on one line again.

The function.php file still contains the code, so I guess something has changed with bbpress.

Would someone know what I should do now?

Many thanks

bbPress 2.4 released! Now you can easily use it with hierarchical replies

[MediaSVI]

Thanks for the hard work to all you dev’s!

[MediaSVI]

Ok thanks for the 2.4 update, I installed it but it does not fix this issue. Maybe this is something I could just edit myself if I had the code and knew the place to add it. Also it would be cool to add an option in bbPress to have the User info to the “left” or “across the top”.

With it to the left there is a lot of wasted page real-estate and it is not responsive friendly.

Forums have always had the user info to the left but I think it’s time to change this or at least have the choice.

Thank you for your time.

First of all, did you copy the extra Dutch language files for bbPress and BuddyPress? You need those in addition to the Dutch language files for WordPress itself.

https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/ will point you in the right direction for making things work with bbPress. (I suggest that you take the “dev branch” for the files, as the other link is outdated.)
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/buddypress/dev points to the BuddyPress version of the language files.

If you’ve got those up and working, you should be able to use the Dutch settings… Although I don’t know if the plugin will enable you to switch languages for the bb’s, as I can’t find that they support them.

In ieder geval veel succes!

Hi,

I would like to put in my WP menu a customized navigation button that leads the logged in current user to his/her bbpress profile.

Basically, I want the WP menu bar to have a button that enables the user to navigate to his/her bbpress profile. What is the CCS function code to put in the menu bar?

Currently it’s too complicated for a user to find his/her bbpress profile and navigate to the forum area. Any information would be appreciated.

Hi *,

I’m trying to setup bbPress and BuddyPress in a bi-language site being English and Dutch. I’m using the PolyLang plugin for that.
However, after following the instructions, everything stays in English.
Any suggestions how to make things work?

Best regards,
Will Moonen

Hi,
I have a buddypress installation + bbpress1, with more than 12000 topic replies. I tried migrating to bbpress2 on the host (online). but after lots of timeout errors, I tried in a localhost. but the problem is, it takes a long time to repair forums. I’m waiting 4 hours for “Recalculate last activity in each topic and forum” beig done, but still it’s on progress.
what can I do to do the migrating process faster?

[zerocoolflo]

As I am watching this support forum, most of the time members are left to solve their own problems. Replies 0 (I know that I made this post 3 hours ago but I am reffering in general).

Duh

[senton1]

I don’t think this challenge is related to bbpress, this is apparently a buddpress problem

[zwang]

I have figured out how to fix it. Thanks!

I’m am using the plugin “Tabbed Login Widget” which I would like to modify so that user profile page points to the BBpress profile instead on the WP profile page.

But I do not know what URL to use?

[zwang]

Hi guys,

On my site, bbPress and the “Recent Post” widget of my blog conflict. Could anyone please give me some clue to fix this?

Wordpress version:３.6
bbPress version: 2.3.2
My site:http://geekroo.com/site/forums

Please refer to the right sidebar and the footer on the page.

Cheers!

Karl

Hi

This is such a simple request so I’m probably being an idiot but I can’t find a clear answer anywhere!

I need to display the number of post a user has made on my forum

I am using the BBPress plugin for WordPress.

[zerocoolflo]

Hell everyone,

First I want to thank the developers for doing such a great job with this plugin (I just discovered it) and I hope I’ll get it working.

I installed bbPress on my website and observed it ruined the forum’s sidebar (practically, the old sidebar was still active but pushed down and looked weird and at the top of the forum’s sidebar I had a message “comments are closed on this page”).

Nonetheless I discovered the problem:

Well, I am using the thesis theme on my website and I customized all my posts to show related posts by inserting this code in custom.css file:

function my_related_posts() {
if (is_single()) {
global $post;
$current_post = $post->ID;
$categories = get_the_category();
foreach ($categories as $category) :
?>
<div class=”my-recent-posts”><h4>Additional Reading…</h4>

<?php
$posts = get_posts(‘numberposts=5&category=’. $category->term_id . ‘&exclude=’ . $current_post);
foreach($posts as $post) :
?>
• “><?php the_title(); ?>

<?php endforeach; ?><?php endforeach; ?>

</div>
<?php
}
wp_reset_query();
}
add_action(‘thesis_hook_after_post’,’my_related_posts’);

I absolutely want to keep related posts on my posts.

When I delete this “related posts code”, the sidebar works as it should.

Any workaround/Suggestions?

[Stephen Edgar]

Thanks for reporting this 🙂

I’ll try to update the importer as soon as I can to import any username that includes white space eg. Member Name to member_name or member-name.

This needs a bit of thought on a patch as it will affect all of the bbPress importers 😉

[capacitron]

I actually found an issue with the MyBB Forum Importer. Since MyBB allows and accepts Usernames with spaces in between words: i.e. “John Smith” and WordPress does not, WordPress is generating URL’s for those users as i.e. “John%20Smith” which produces a 404 and prevents editing of profiles and such. It is the very problem discussed in this BuddyPress topic: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/spaces-in-username-causing-problems/
Which was never resolved.
I’m currently searching for a quick SQL query where I can remove all the “%20″‘s occurring in those URL’s.

[Stephen Edgar]

Probably not, an educated guess would be only a slight improvement over SSD.
