You can edit “content-archive-forum.php” that is as far as I know the frontpage(index) of the forums, you can also remove the search form there.

Another option for removing the search is by turning sitewide search off in your bbpress settings.

The forums title is a bit trickier, since it uses your page.php from your normal theme and inserts that content title. You’d have to change it there.

[Xevo]

You have 2 options for this.

1. Recode the bbpress plugin and change out the custom post type names/slugs etc.
2. Try to filter the forums with a custom query on the loops.

[Xevo]

There is no plugin that does this for bbPress as far as I’m aware off. You could try looking at the code from BP Labs and extending it too bbPress.

Hello,

What I’m trying to achieve is something like this setup where the forums are broken up:

http://floridastate.rivals.com/forum.asp

I’m looking for groups of forums (Categories) that have a heading such as “Romantic”, “Platonic”, “General Discussion”, where “Romantic”, “Platonic”, “General Discussion” is not a forum (Category), but just a heading.

Something like this:

http://floridastate.rivals.com/forum.asp

Thank you in advance!

do you guys know if there is any way to avoid putting html tags for images and such as part of the comments? —> <img src="http://asd" alt="asd" />

I’m running WP 3.6 with bbPress 2.4.
I’m using iTheme-2 in a slightly modified version utilizing a child theme.
What would it take to have the forum part behave the same way as it does here?
And leave everything else untouched?
In case needed: take a look here: http://moonen.dyndns.info/wlm4services/en/forums/.

Thanks!

[Sami Keijonen]

After updating the version 2.4 my site title is missing, it’s just empty <title></title>. When I deactivate bbPress everything is working again. Any idea why this is happening.

You can see it in this demo page for example.

http://foxnet-themes.fi/demo/kultalusikka/

[kcurlsjr]

After updating to 2.4 I han no longer change forum visibility to “hidden.”

When editing a single forum via the WP dashboard, there is the ability to select hidden from the drop down menu, but after hitting the update button it reverts back to the previous state (either public or private).

When bulk editing a group of forums via the WP dashboard, there is not an option of “hidden” to select.

Has this visibility option been removed?

Hello,

I am new to the WordPress world and setting up my first experimental site inside my company. I want to move a blog/forum from an old home grown system to a new bbPress forum. I do not need to carry over replies; just the topics, write ups, author, and tags. I have all of the information in a spreadsheet. Assuming all of the old authors have accounts in the new WordPress, is there a way to import the topics and their metadata? I see importers for some specific BBs but nothing for just a generic data file.

Thanks much for any suggestions,
Mike Harper

I just succesfully uploaded the zip file and activated the plugin but when I click on settings I get the following error:

No teniu els permisos necessaris per accedir a aquesta pàgina.

The language is set to catalan, the aprox. translation of this would be:

You don’t have the necessary permits to access this page.

Can anyone help me to solve this problem.

This is the url of the error page:

Hello,

First I’d like to thank you for your plugin it will help very much for the new site I’m building.

I would like to know what page is the main forum landing page. I’d like to make a few edits, such as removing the default title “Forum” at the top and replace with my site conformed titles for each page. I would also like to comment out the forum search box.

I am currently wordpress vers 3.6 and I installed bbpress 2.4 today.
Here is the link. http://108.167.136.97/~kitchens/forums/

Thank you,

I have created a converter for Kunena Forums, I hope it could be useful for all of you

[wdele]

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,

[damteq]

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

<?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>

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. 🙂
