Hi folks,
Ultimate Tinymce developer here.
I was just made aware of this issue by one of your faithful followers, who pointed me over here to this thread.
He had some code he was using which allowed Ultimate Tinymce to work with the new WP and new BBPress. Here is the code:
function jwl_bbpress_mceallow( $args = array() ) {
$args['teeny'] = false;
return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'jwl_bbpress_mceallow' );
I have added the code to my plugin… which we are currently testing… and will be available in my next plugin release (version 3.9).
If I may be of any additional help, please don’t hesitate to contact me by using my form here:

Kind Regards!
I am trying to design a Question and Answer theme by customizing bbpress where Topics will be Questions and Replies will be Answers. I am able to change the display names and slug names of ‘Forums’, ‘Topics’ and ‘Replies’ into ‘Sectors’, ‘Questions’ and ‘Answers’ respectively using str_ireplace functions. (Please note that I have also changed ‘Posts’ into ‘Answers’). Its pretty easy until here. The problem I am facing is this:
When the single topic is displayed, the headers appear like this:
Author | Answers
Admin | What is the Capital of USA?
User1 | It's hmm.. I don't know.
User2 | I think its New York.
User3 | No Guys its washing ton.
The first post is in fact the Question. Unfortunately it also appears under Answers. I understand that I have to deal with the loop now because all posts looped in this topic naturally appear under Posts (in my case ‘Answers’). This was how bbpress is designed. But is there a way where I can have a different header for the very first post in my single topic and rest of the posts will have different header. For example:
Author | Question
Admin | What is the Capital of USA?
Author | Answers
User1 | It's hmm.. I don't know.
User2 | I think its New York.
User3 | No Guys its washing ton.
Author | Answers
How do I get this? Do I have to edit the loop or call it twice? If so, how do I set the query to get only first post in the first block and all posts minus first post in the second block.
Would appreciate any help. Thank you.
PS: I am using bbpress 2.2.3 along with Skeleton Theme (which has inbuilt theme support for bbpress).
Create a page and call it whatever you want.
Put the shortcode inside the page and you got an editable page.
All shortcodes are here: https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
Thanks for your feedback guys! I ended up hard-coding the changes in register.php, but I’d much prefer to do it the way you describe because it would allow my client to customize that text anytime they want.
Can you point me to guidance on how to use the shortcode (and override the already-existing register.php)? robbiegod, I’d love to hear if you figure out how to redirect people back to the forum.
Thanks!
What I was looking for was bbp_topic_freshness_link();
Thanks Stephen. Unfortunately the web.config made no difference 🙁 Neither did changing the permalinks to every option or removing slugs etc.
I also tried setting up a fresh WP Install with a clean copy of bbPress but it did the same thing.
I am stumped and completely out of options at the moment :-/
I look at my network stack trace and notice when I hit “Submit” the error code returned is a 302 Moved Temporarily, this is when it redirects to the wrong URL.
Debugging the code, it seems to hit the same place in query.php about 2-3 times meaning it’s loading the correct page, getting redirected to the wrong page, then loading the wrong page…
Thanks anyway, hopefully someone else will have this problem with a solution at some point!
Hi everybody! Ok, after 10 hours of research and trying, I surrender and ask to people who know more than me.
I’m trying to change the default tab “home” of each buddypress groups for the “forum”, so I can Hide or delete the “home” tab and only use the forum.
I’ve tried hundreds of different codes I’ve found on diferent blogs and with some changes I made but no one does ANYTHING in the way the tabs are shown or oppened in the groups.
The last one I tried is this one (the simpliest one) http://screencast.com/t/tJE8UFQy7
There is also the root in which I created the bp-custom.php file.
I can’t think anything to fix this. Please could anybody help me with this? Does anybody thing about anything that is causing this?
Thank you all!
Having trouble copying over the template. I basically want to use a different header file called get_header(‘bb’) for the BB templates. I read the codex and a few other post and no luck. Here’s what I’ve done:
Uploaded most recent bbPress Plugin and WordPress install
This is what bb plugin tree looks like:
-includes
-languages
-templates
–default
—bbpress FOLDER
—css FOLDER
—extras FOLDER
—js FOLDER
bbpress-functions.php
From my understanding of the bb theme-compatability codex, I copied the contents of the extras folder into a folder in my theme called bbpress.
I added add_theme_support( ‘bbpress’ ); to the after_setup_theme hook
Now it should work!?! Should I be copying the contents of default folder into the bbpress folder of my theme?
Is there a parameter that goes with the bblogin shortcode that you can tell what url to redirect too after someone logs in? I want it to always go to my forums homepage, but that doesn’t seem to work.
I made a new page and added the bblogin shortcode in the main content block. Problem is after i login using this forum it keeps me on this page instead of sending me to the forums main page.
Got any ideas how to change the redirect_url via the shortcode?
hepdoll –
what i did was i made a new page and used the shortcode to show the register form like Lynq said. I could add whatever text above the form i wanted in the main content block.
This creates a new problem. When i use this form, it doesnt redirect me to where my forums are…I will make my own thread to see if i can an answer to that question.
The entire site here at bbpress.org is powered by WordPress and bbPress
Have you looked at using some shortcodes on WP pages to get what you are after?
https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
Theres widgets too https://codex.bbpress.org/widgets/
Have you setup the page using the shortcode?
nope….
OK – here is some of the code from firebug. :
#bbpress-forums ul {
list-style: none outside none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#bbpress-forums li {
list-style: none outside none;
margin: 0;
}
These are the styles that I would have thought controlled the bulleting of lists but the code seems to already indicate no style for the unordered lists?
I have tried adding both:
list-style: none;
and:
list-style: none !important;
and:
list-style: none outside none !important;
to all of the #bbpress style entries that I can find (only in firebug preview, not actual changes) but the little blighters remain steadfast.
?????
So Guys ??
No any help ?? 🙁
More about this problem:
In a page I pasted the shortcode [bbp-forum-index]. This shows the forums that are available. The url of one forum is for example:
http://www.stichtinginspiratiekring.nl/forums/forum/ledeninformatie/
That url is not correct. All urls that are generated are not correct.
I changed the permalinks to standard. That gives for example a url as:
http://www.stichtinginspiratiekring.nl/?forum=ledeninformatie
404 again.
If you are just trying to copy/move forums/topics/replies from a bbPress 2.2.3 install eg site1.com to a bbPress 2.2.3 install on site2.com you can ‘export’ these via WordPress’ built-in tools (/wp-admin/export.php) and then import to site2.com using the Import (/wp-admin/import.php) tool.
If you are importing from bbPress ‘Stand Alone’ 1.1 or 1.2 you should look for a file named ‘bb-config.php’ and that will contain the correct info you need to import with the bbPress Forum Import tool.
eg.
// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for bbPress */
define( 'BBDB_NAME', 'my_database_name' );
/** MySQL database username */
define( 'BBDB_USER', 'my_database_username' );
/** MySQL database password */
define( 'BBDB_PASSWORD', '1234567890' );
/** MySQL hostname */
define( 'BBDB_HOST', 'localhost' );
And a little further down in that file is the bbPress table prefix
$bb_table_prefix = 'bb_';
They are the values you would use in the bbPress Import Tool setting.
Quite sure if you have reset the permalinks as I noted in the previous post if that does not fix it then it is definitely the ‘URL Rewrite’ module settings in IIS. (Thats is if you have it installed as you do need it for rewrites with IIS)
The easiest Windows option is to use the Microsoft Web Platform Installer (Web PI) and follow the guide outlined here:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Easy_5_Minute_WordPress_Installation_on_Windows
http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/wordpress.aspx
If you are manually installing IIS, MySQL & PHP then you have some work ahead of you getting your environment configured correctly and need to make sure you have the ‘URL Rewrite’ module installed and working with IIS http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite#additionalDownloads
I have not tried any of the ‘WAMP’ (Windows, Apache, MySQL, PHP) packages referenced here but that is another option.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#WAMP
Thanks Stephen. So it is something to do with my rewrite rules? I am using Windows 7 on IIS 7.5 so those links don’t really help me much.
I have XDebug running on Notepad++ to debug my php code, would it be worth it if I stepped through the code in which it’s creating the URL? If it would be worth it, any idea where to start?
I have already looked at bbp_get_reply_url method calls in some of the bbp files but nothing has really helped much.
Thanks
Ana
P.s. butterflies is the name of the FORUM, not the topic title. The rewrite ignores the topic title completely.
Your topic replies URL should be displaying in the format:
http://localhost/sitename/forum/topic/butterflies/#post-158277
When I set my bbPress settings to the same settings you use above these are the URL’s:
Forums base: forum (Note: Default bbPress setting is ‘forums’)
Topics base: topics (Note: Default bbPress setting ‘topics’)
Forum Prefix ticked (Note: Default bbPress setting ‘ticked/checked’)
Forum slug: forums (Note: Default bbPress setting is ‘forum’)
Topic slug: topic (Note: Default bbPress setting ‘topic’)
http://localhost/sitename/forum/forums/butterflies/
http://localhost/sitename/forum/topic/test-topic/
http://localhost/sitename/forum/topic/butterflies/#post-158277
I would try resetting your permalinks. In your WordPress Administration Screens navigate to Settings > Permalinks, select a different permalink structure and save. Then select your preferred permalink structure and save again.
If you have no luck I would read up on the LAMP/MAMP (Linux/Mac, Apache, MySQL, PHP) package you are using on what settings are needed for mod_rewrite to work on your local machine.
There are also a few (and a few broken links here) installing WordPress Locally

Hi I am having an issue with my forum URL rewrite rules/slugs/permalinks.
At the moment I am testing this in my dev environment.
I have a page that is called FORUM and contains my recent topic and forum shortcodes. This page is located at localhost/sitename/forum
My slug settings are:
Archive Slugs
Forums base: forum
Topics base: topics
Single Slugs
Forum Prefix ticked
Forum slug: forums
Topic slug: topic
Topic tag slug: topic-tag
Reply slug: reply
User slug: user
Topic view slug: view
When I navigate to a forum the URL looks like this:
http://localhost/sitename/forum/forums/butterflies/
When I navigate to a topic inside that forum, the URL looks like this:
http://localhost/sitename/forum/topic/test-topic/
When I reply to a topic, the URL rewrites to this:
http://localhost/sitename/forum/forums/butterflies/#post-158277
So obviously this is an incorrect URL and just takes me back to the forum home page with the list of recent topics.
How can I make the URL format be consistent? Something like:
http://localhost/sitename/forum/forum-name/test-topic/#post-158277
Thanks
I’m having a problem where a number of our users are sending around URLs to discussions in private forums to other users, when those URLs are clicked, if the user is not logged in they get a 404.
I want to write a plugin that directs users to the login page if they are not already, and only then return a 404 if they don’t have ‘read_private_forums’…
Can anyone familiar with the bbPress code base point me to where bbPress evaluates this access?
Run the ‘Repair Tools’ after the importer has finished importing everything
https://codex.bbpress.org/repair-forums/
As per the link you mention above https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/
You should be able to import with these settings:
– Select the source platform that you are importing from: bbPress
– Database Name eg. old_bbpress_db
– Database User Name eg. db_user
– Database User Password eg. ********
– Table Prefix eg. bb_
I’d like to import my bbpress forum(with user, topics and replies) from one site to another.
Is it possible?
Both domain are in the same server. So, I see the database is same for both domain on the server.
http://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/
I’m not very clear about that. And It doesn’t work for me as well.
Can anyone help me ASAP.
I’m in A SERIOUS trouble.
Please.
I have the “Members”-plugin installed. After updating bbPress and changing all roles of the users from “(wordpress-)”participants” into “subscribers”, the “participant”-roles of bbPress were empty. Now all subscribers can participate in the private forums. Not what I’ve had in mind…
But in my functions.php I have a script to notify users of their updated capabilities. It starts with:
function user_role_update( $user_id, $new_role ) {
if($new_role == 'bbp_participant') {
But that doesn’t seem to work anymore. Did the name of the bbPress participant role change? Will
function user_role_update( $user_id, $new_role ) {
if($new_role == 'participant') {
work?
