I think you are using the bbPress moderation plugin, or a fork of it possibly.

There might be a case you might not be using that plugin, and it could be the link limit bbPress uses that is located in the Discussion settings of your site.

https://codex.bbpress.org/moderation-and-blacklisting/

If the posts are pending it might be what I stated above, if its marked as spam, then of course its a spam plugin.

[Robkk]

You are probably going to have to rename the custom post type “topic” in bbPress then. And areas that might be needed to modify the topic post type.

I think you need to check out the bbpress.php file in the bbPress plugin where the custom post types are registered. There might be a filter you can use that will make you be able to modify the code externally and safely without changing the core files internally, which I don’t suggest you do if you are a beginner in coding.

We also do not want another log in. We want them to be able to log into their profile in our student portal and that is it. They have access to the forum aswell and no additional login or registering, as right now we pre-create their profiles, no one registers.

Like @netweb said bbPress and WordPress share user data, so as long as your student portal is compatible with WordPress it should be fine. You do not need a separate login for the forum as long as the student login, logs into your WordPress site.

We need a forum that has all the features that a forum system includes, such as:
Adding/Creating Threads by both Student and Admins. Instructors also need to be able to create them.
We do not want external links like Share to facebook and such. As this is a forum in a portal and do not want anyone but Students having access to it.

Ok, you can manually create users and assign different forum roles if need be. And you can create custom forum roles with help form a code snippet. You definitely need private forums, but I am not sure how private. Do you want private user groups for specific forums, only logged in users can see the forums, or only logged in users can see the whole site.

We do not want a profiling. We already have a profile system where the profile in wordpress is their student profile which includes their address, email, username, phone number and also their student id. This information cannot be visible to other students.
So either if this plugin gives an external profile system where it does not interact with the profile already made in the USERS area of wordpress it would work, but if it works with the USERS part of wordpress then the clickable link to view a profile, edit profile would need to be removed for our sake.

There is a php code snippet around these forums to remove the author link in replies and topics from going to their profile and instead show up in the forum as text. Removing profile links in descriptions and a widget might need another code snippet, or it could be easily avoidable by not using a widget and removing the descriptions.

bbPress doesn’t add any additional user meta fields if I remember correctly.

Removing the profiles, I haven’t looked at what code you could possibly need, but it could be possibly avoidable by redirecting any user forum profiles (if users somehow reach them) to somewhere else.

Email address is required to post using anonymous/guest posting.

In this stackoverflow topic, there is a php codesnippet/plugin you can use that might be helpful.

[denisecontent]

I have a client with a request that seems simple but I am having a dilly of a time figuring it out.

They want to be able to charge users for premium posts. These posts will *not* appear at the top. Instead they will look different from other posts – bolded links, different color font – not at the users choice simply coded in by us. This will be a one time thing for a user – the users should not be able to do any other posts this way. I already set up the forum so that the client will approve all posts – he wants to be able to go in and click a button that will then style that post a different way.

I can style the sticky to do this easily and have done so on my demo but am unsure how to proceed with his request. I do have a child theme.

I know enough code to add stuff into functions and php pages. I am much better at HTML5 and CSS (can do animations).

I have tried a few things I came up with on my own but they do not work and rather than show them I would rather hear your thoughts.

Here is my demo – it is still pretty primitive… http://www.contentandsolutions.com/njywf/

I am using
Wordpress Version 4.6.1

Customizr theme using child theme. Customizr Version: 3.4.23

BBPress Plugin Version 2.5.10

Code or a plugin (even a paid for plugin) if possible. Thank you!

[Robin W]

Arguing with those trying to help you is probably not the best way forward.

How to do a link is easily googled, but I’ve put one in here that you can add to the template

<li>
	<span class="vcard bbp-user-profile-link">
		<a class="url fn n" href="www.mysite.com/read-this" title="read this">Read this</a>
	</span>
</li>

[Dave]

Why should that make a difference? Once I can find out how this is done I could add any content.

To keep it simple, let’s just say hard coded text to display, when the user clicks on a link called “Read this”.

Thanks.

Hi @senatorman , I think you’ve replied in the wrong topic (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-2-6-alpha-problem-importing-phpbb/page/2/#post-178123).

Just to follow up on your error: I’ve copied and pasted my queries from a Ms Word document and something got broken.
In fact you look at the single quotes in the queries they are all wrong (’ instead of ‘).

I try to post here the steps I did to import from PHPBB to BuddyPress v2.6 alpha.
The concept is the same of what you’ve already read in my previous post but I think the SQL scripts are different.

So first of all I’ve created manually all the missing columns in my PHPBB tables (I was converting from an old version of PHPBB and the converter was expecting some columns that didn’t exist – this could not be your case):

ALTER TABLE forum_forums
ADD forum_posts_approved numeric;

ALTER TABLE forum_forums
ADD forum_topics_approved numeric;

ALTER TABLE forum_topics
ADD topic_posts_approved numeric;

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_facebook varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_twitter varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_occupation varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_interests varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_location varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_youtube varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_skype varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_googleplus varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_website varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_aol varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_yahoo varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_icq varchar(255);

ALTER TABLE forum_profile_fields_data
ADD pf_phpbb_wlm varchar(255);

Then I’ve performed this KEY STEP: insert a dummy row in the WP_USERS table with a very high userid (e.g.: 99999). This should be higher than the highest userid you have in your phpbb installation.
In this way, when the users get converted, the system will assigned IDs starting from 100000 (again, if you have more than 100K users, then you need a higher value).
This step is necessary, so you will always be able to distinguish the old id (PHPBB, < 100000) from the new one assigned after conversion (>= 100000).

After that I’ve started the conversion (it took long).
After converting, the authors of certain posts were wrong.
There is a table that is generated after the conversion that maps the old IDs to the new ones.
So I’ve execute the following scripts to readjust (cannot guarantee this would fix entirely the problem):

/* Get all posts with wrong author and correspondent right author from translator table */

create table TMP_ORPHANS as
select
<YOUR_SCHEMA>.wp_posts.ID,
<YOUR_SCHEMA>.wp_posts.post_author,
<YOUR_SCHEMA>.wp_bbp_converter_translator.value_id real_author,

IFNULL(<YOUR_SCHEMA>.wp_posts.post_date_gmt, NULL) post_date_gmt,
<YOUR_SCHEMA>.wp_posts.post_content,

I deactivated bbpress today, and the next thing all site is broke with HTTP code 500.
I tried to reset plugins, reset themes, checked for htaccess entries, nothing.
I put it back, no chance.

Class ‘BBP_Theme_Compat’ not found in /home/sites/pcforum.ro/public_html/wp-content/themes/pcf/functions_bb.php on line 32

Update – i fix it.
Found the code and remove it. Thanks

[mbfit]

Ah ok thanks! I did find the code for that on here

[Stephen Edgar]

Check out the docs in the codex, this I think should help you get started:

Functions files and child themes – explained !

[Stephen Edgar]

You can do this by creating a child theme and editing the form-anonymous template, you can find details on doing this here https://codex.bbpress.org/functions-files-and-child-themes-explained/

[403laura]

I read through this forum because I am experiencing similar issues…(I am a keyholder). I am using both Buddypress and bbpress. I do not have programming knowledge or experience, I do not understand codex or php, I’m just looking for someone to hopefully assist me with a simple solution to these issues, so that when people sign up as users, their interactions are seamless and they are able to quickly find the information they are looking for.

1. When logged in as a user, I am not able to access forums without using the URL to the page. I used the “user roles and capabilities” plugin as recommended above, to change the user settings in the back end so I could view “private” posts and that sort of worked but I still have to use the URL to find the forum page. I have also run the tools for both Buddypress and bbpress. There are several links in the user profile area but they all seem to direct me to the user activities only…I cannot link to any of the content posted by other users through those links. (Same with the tool bar at the top of the page and all of the drop down menus).

2. I just created a topic to post under a forum. Under my keyholder account, I am able to see the topic when I click on it but when I try clicking on it as a user, it doesnt show up. It just tells me there is “0 replies, has 1 post, and last updated by me” and the topic is not there.

No plugin bbpress Login Register Links OnForumPage

Quando coloco echo do_shortcode(‘[bbp-login]‘); já imprime o formulário, como que eu faço para colocar o nome login e quando eu clicar ir para esse formulário?

[Robkk]

here is what I got.

I had to edit loop-single-reply.php after all,

I used a conditional to output the minimal layout only for single topics only.

I had to use bbp_reply_permalink(); instead of bbp_reply_url();.

Like I said you for sure do have to edit the bbPress reply titles plugin for what you exactly want, your gonna have to possibly make the reply title required as well.

You are going to end up doing a lot of customization to get the rest of the funcitonality, because I am not sure how submitting a threaded reply works on the other forum.

You are also going to figure out how to show the threads on the single reply page, for the specific topic they were originally from.

Bunch more customizing, much more than free support could possible help with.

I will share any custom templates I used later.

[milliways2650]

Thank you for your help. Unfortunately I think I have reached a dead end.

I decided to give another try. I created a new phpbb database, and a new WordPress installation, just in case I had caused some damage.

Attempting the import produced the following error. Presumably it is objecting to something in my phpbb database. I can not find ‘forum_topics_approved’ anywhere (but have little experience with MySQL).

WordPress database error: [Unknown column ‘forums.forum_topics_approved’ in ‘field list’]

My comment about lack of stats was that there was no positive feedback e.g. x forums imported, which would be helpful.

I did not understand the comment “If you also view the source of the page, right click and “inspect” will also bring this up, you should see some debug code showing the SQL queries being performed during the import:”

Use this custom CSS, add it anywhere you can put custom css like in a child themes style.css file or in a custom css plugin.

@douglsmith

Oh shoot your right Doug. I might have suggested the wrong thing.

I have also seen this happen with TinyMCE activated. It seems to be iOS users and they claim that they haven’t pasted anything, but I have not observed this for myself yet.

I have no idea if it could be IOS specific?? I can check I guess?? Damn thats weird if it is.

@harjindersingh645

You will need to use this since you copied text to your forums. Pasting other articles content in the Visual Editor in TinyMCE could end up posting the HTML content, its recommended to post any articles content into the HTML editor, but you can also use this PHP code snippet from this guide below, that I think Doug did add, that would help resolve this issue that could be caused pasting articles in the visual editor for any further posts submitted.

function bbp_tinymce_paste_plain_text( $plugins = array() ) {
    $plugins[] = 'paste';
    return $plugins;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_tiny_mce_plugins', 'bbp_tinymce_paste_plain_text' );

https://codex.bbpress.org/enable-visual-editor/

For editing the already messed up posts, I think you can just copy the original post, edit it, and paste the text into the HTML editor over the original content and hopefully that would fix it. THere might be also a chance of it going away just by editing it, then just republishing after you used the code snippet.

[Stephen Edgar]

No, you should not be using phpBB Converter file 5795, you should be using the version that is included with 2.6-alpha.

That will fix the problem in your screenshot.

[Stephen Edgar]

It does give stats as it imports, you should be something similar to:

If you also view the source of the page, right click and “inspect” will also bring this up, you should see some debug code showing the SQL queries being performed during the import:

The forums, if imported will be in the wp_posts table of your WordPress database, if you filter the posts and search the post_type column for forum, topic, or reply you should see any imported posts.

[Robin W]

sorry the code is/was untested.

Try this with a correction

function add_custom_role( $bbp_roles ) {
 
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role1'] = array(
'name' => 'vip',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
return $bbp_roles;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_custom_role', 1 );

[Stephen Edgar]

On the importer screen there is an option to select what forum you are importing from, I presume you selected phpBB from that dropdown?

[Robkk]

Install the other wpfix 2 plugin. It should have the same code snippet you are trying to use, without having to place any code anywhere.

I recommend users who are beginners to not edit bbPress core files. Or any other plugin/theme/wordpress core files unless you know exactly what you are doing code wise.

[Robkk]

Okay, yeah this site does have an interesting layout.

http://eat.at/swap/forum1/251729_Help_Need_recipe_for_fig_jam_ASAP

From what I can see real quick.

Your not going to edit the loop-single-reply.php file like @netweb suggested, because after clicking the reply title link you are redirected to a normal layout single reply. So to get this layout you are going to edit content-single-topic.php, remove the pagination, and place a custom template instead of loop-replies..php so that you won’t mess with replies in a forum profile.

<?php if ( bbp_has_replies() ) : ?>

	<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'replies' ); ?>

	<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop',       'replies' ); ?>

	<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'replies' ); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

Replace the above code with this for example.

<?php if ( bbp_has_replies() ) : ?>

	<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop',       'classic-threads' ); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

The code that will be in loop-classic-threads.phpwill be a copy of loop-replies.php and a very minimal loop-single-reply.php. Wherever say <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'single-reply' ); ?> is called in the new loop-classic-threads.php file, I would just copy the whole loop-single-reply.php template where that get template function was and keep only the code you need.

The code that is going to be in the area you put the loop-single-reply.php code is only going to have the username, date, maybe the reply positions, and reply title. The reply title is going to mostly come from a customized version of the bbPress reply title plugin. But you are going to output the reply title in the template as a link. A link (I think bbp_reply_url() is the right function ) to the single reply template, which is only 1 reply isolated, which bbPress can do.

Does this help enough??

I’m gonna see if I can recreate most of this layout later
