Also looking for the solution, I resorted to reading the code and found it. Quick version: bbPress inherits WordPress’ locale string. Suppose it’s ‘it_IT’. Then you will have to put your language file in wp-content/languages/bbpress/bbpress-it_IT.mo

In-depth version: in bbpress.php you can find the load_textdomain() function (line 524 ATM). There you can see it gets the WordPress locale, then uses it to compose the language filename in the $mofile variable. $mofile in our example case is set to ‘bbpress-it_IT.mo’, and this filename is looked for in the ‘wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-languages’ directory first (which, as index.php says, should not be used), and then in the ‘wp-content/languages/bbpress/’ directory. Just put it there named like we found before and you’re done.

Hello,

I know why, I dont know if its a feature or a bug , but..

you only get notification from a registered users. So when user is registered and opens the forum and replies you will get notification, but if the user comes to site and uses only simple form without registration and even if I tick “Notify me of follow-up replies via email” I will not get any notification. I think its not right.

I might be wrong but its my testing and observation. correct me if I am wrong.

thanx

@highexistnence – What version of bbPress are you using? If using 2.0, put your WordPress translation files in:

/wp-content/languages/

your bbPress translation files in:

/wp-content/languages/bbpress/

and then:

define('WPLANG', 'es_ES');

in your wp-config.php, replacing es_ES with your language code.

If you’re language is English, then you don’t need to do anything.

I just solved it 2 minutes ago On my new site http://justaskpatrick.com I turned on registration and made the default role forum participant. On this new site I was also able to get the shortcodes working. I wasn’t able to on my main site http://allaboutfocus.com .

[amirsaam]

LOL! Yep @JJJ is right! On line 538 of bbPress.php we have a language directory for bbPress! It exist like /wp-content/languages/bbpress/ and I think the textdomain (if need but I don’t think so) is bbpress

That was what I got from that file

[janoochen]

Sure, this is an example of loop-topic.php:

<?php while ( bbp_topics() ) : bbp_the_topic(); ?>



(etc...)



<div class="vote-count<?php rating_class($thumbs_number); ?>">

<h4>

<?php wp_gdsr_render_article_thumbs(); ?></h4><span><?php votes_text($thumbs_number); ?></span>

</div><?php $replies_number = bbp_get_topic_reply_count(); ?>



<div class="reply-count<?php reply_class($replies_number); ?>">

<h4>

<?php bbp_topic_reply_count(); ?></h4><span><?php reply_text($replies_number); ?></span>

</div>



<div class="freshness-count">

<h4>

<?php bbp_topic_freshness_link(); ?></h4><span><?php bbp_author_link( array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_topic_last_active_id(), 'size' => 14 ) ); ?></span>

</div>

(etc…)

Basically, you just have to place the code that generates the rating inside the bbpress loop. You can place it in files like loop-topic.php, loop-replies.php, etc.

Almost all voting and rating plugins work this way (I’m using gd star rating).

The next step is to be able to sort the topics and replies according to their rating. But I’ve already spent one year trying that with no results.

[patrickallmond]

I seem to be having a problem using shortcodes – see this post: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/funky-action-with-pages-with-shortcodes

Since I cannot use shortcodes, and my forums page http://allaboutfocus.com/forums does not have a registration link anyplace, how do people register to participate in my forums? Every forum page says you must be logged in but they give you no way to login or register.

Thanks,

Patrick

[patrickallmond]

Does anybody have any ideas? Is this specific to genesis? Thanks.

[Stephen Edgar]

Not exactly what I planned on doing today whilst sitting in the back of a car! Though whilst browsing these forums I bumbed into this thread and have kicked it off on my iPad with a bbPress test site importing from 30,000 post PHPBB site, been running now for around 30 minutes.

I’ll add some follow ups on how the data Looks in bbPress when I have the right tools

EDIT: ~90 minutes after above

After ~60 minutes I have stopped it and had a look at the WordPress tables with myphpadmin and I cannot see any new posts in ‘wp_posts’ or ‘wp_users’

Is the ‘PhpBB_Not_Complete’ import tool active? i.e. Should I see more than nothing, nil, null as a result of trying this?

Cheers,

Stephen

What people really see:

http://pride.mmbr.no/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/bbpress3.png

Only stickys show up in the forum. Also: notice how it says the forum has 2 topics, but viewing only 1.

http://pride.mmbr.no/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/bbpress5.png

Here is the actual pages so you can see for yourselves:

http://pride.mmbr.no/forum/delforum/minecraft » the forum

http://pride.mmbr.no/forum/emne/1-9-og-apaxia-nova » the topic

I installed bbPress via the WordPress Plugins tab and I have copied the template files to my custom theme and customized them (basicly just removed the sidebar) and added the add_theme_support( 'bbpress' ); line in functions.php.

It’s like the topics are set to hidden.

I have checked and double checked that the publish status is set to published. What do?

Thank you for any help.

Bugs/inconsistencies:

– “Assign topic to” appears on all forums. That’s okay I guess, but should be an option, not mandatory.

– If a “Resolved” or “Urgent” topic is moved to a non-support forum, the prefix will stay, but there’s no way of removing it as the extra controls don’t exist in this forum. When moving support topics to non-support forums, I would suggest stripping away all extra features entirely.

I seem to remember the first time I did it the process was clean, but in all my last attempts I’ve received this error when moving a topic out of the troubleshooting board:

( ! ) Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in C:wampwwwwordpress-singlewp-includesquery.php on line 27

I do not think you’re do the right thing guys. I think you jus’ must put the language file into WP language directory (wp-content/languages) with a name like (I’m not sure about it) bbp-fa_IR.po or bbppress-fa_IR.po and/or mo. That fa-IR is for my language, example for english: en_US

[master5o1]

This works a whole lot better than the built in converter.

The built in one could only handle 15 topics and, this plugin one is doing them all

[master5o1]

Not sure why the [bbp-*] shortcodes aren’t working on this page.

http://beta.tartarus.co.nz/forum/

[tgiokdi]

with the small details that still need to be worked out, I think we’d better wait till a 2.1 release to actually mention it. a fair amount of people are still a little confused as to where the forums are installed to, how to administrate them, and most importantly, how to integrate their themes into the new bbpress. I’d say after those three major things are mentioned in the install instructions and made a bit clearer / automated, then it’s time to invite the masses

[Justin Mason]

@TravisHill — Your code worked without fail. Thank you my friend, you saved a lot of headache.

[goldmember]

If you look at a topic thread on my site (http://willowbilliards.com/forum/topic/test-topic-3/) you’ll notice that there’s no avatars showing.

I figured out that the place where the code should exist is in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php so I stuck a message that says “avatar should go here”. Here’s the code from that page: http://pastebin.com/dMLeD6LV

But what do I need to put there so the avatar actually shows? Please advise. Thanks in advance!

[Ronald Rogers]

It’s pretty much all stated in the title.

There doesn’t appear to be anything preventing guests from seeing hidden or private topics when the [bbp-topic-index] short code is used.

There is a forum on the site that only people that can view private forums are supposed to know about. You can’t view the topic’s contents, but the existence of the forum is nevertheless betrayed in the index.

I was able to fix the problem by adding a check in the loop-single-topic.php template file.

[travis.hill]

Pass some $args through bbp_list_forums.

If your using custom templates, locate the loop-single-forum.php file. Somewhere around line 25 you should find the bbp_list_forums function. Pass it some $args like so:

<?php bbp_list_forums(array('separator' => '','show_topic_count' => false, 'show_reply_count' => false)); ?>

That should get you going in the right direction.

[bobbyh44]

“After I installed it the first time it took me a couple of hours to find my forums page.” – good that you persevered and got it working Patrick.

Suspect that for every user that manages finally to find the solution, have half a dozen that just think – Sod it, doesn’t work, waste of time, delete.

Maybe it’s some kind of elitist coder thing? If you can’t fill in the missing technical details you can’t join the club?

I’ve gone over to SMF, Simple Machines Forum purely because they do indeed have clear documentation and installation instructions. I have confidence in the team behind the script because they are thinking of the end user and not just the code. I suggest that if you want this excellent addition to wordpres to be the roaring success it deserves to be, you do the same.

Good luck with the project.

[websitedesigningindia]

Forum Name | Topics | Posts | Last Post

and in the # of topics and # of posts column, it adds the word “threads” and “posts” after the number.

Main Footer

<script type=”text/javascript”>

<!–

/* remove Forum Name | Topics | Posts…

and add thread & post info by california */

var td=document.getElementsByTagName(“td”);

if(location.href.match(//?((index.cgi)???(action=(ma.+ad|logout|home))?(#.+)?)?$/)){

for(i=0;i<td.length;i++){

if(td.width==”1%” && td.innerHTML.match(/d/)){

if(td[i+1].width.match(/^(1|7)%$/)){

td.innerHTML+=”
threads”;

td.width=”8%”;

}else{

td.innerHTML+=”
posts”;

td.width=”7%”;

}

}

if(td.width==”8%” && !td.innerHTML.match(/thread/)){

td.width=”4%”;

}

if(td.className==”titlebg” && td.innerHTML.match(/Forum Name/i)){

td.parentNode.style.display=”none”;

}

}

}

//–>

</script>

It will say “1 threads” if you only have one topic or post. The solution: post another thread.

If you are using a “Divide/Seperate Categories” code then this code should be placed below that code.

If for some reason you don’t want the words “threads” and “posts”, leave out the blue part. I wouldn’t really recommend this as the numbers in those two columns become completely meaningless and the column widths get all screwed up, but people still keep asking for it for some reason.

[jam09]

where do i put the modified code?

[master5o1]

Assuming bbPress 2.0:

You can modify this file (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/bbpress/tags/2.0/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/bbpress/form-anonymous.php)

Modify the <input> tags such that they’re type="hidden". Also make the value="Anonymous" for name and something like value="anonymous@example.com" for email.

There is _probably_ a better way but this is the first that comes to mind for me.

[ModdeyDo]

Hi Vaju,

I have now searched the internet (yes all of it I think) and it seems there is a lot of confusion about bbpress and how to change languages.

Has anyone got this to work in version 2.0 (Plugin) ?

Here is what I have tried so far :

1: mo and po files uploaded to /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-languages

2: Looked in and edited a lot of php files.

3. Checked nearly every file in my themes folder (Suffusion).

4. Have been in discussion with Suffusion theme forum.

None of the above has helped in any way

My wordpress is showing the correct language, which is great. A major problem is the Forum is not. I currently have the site offline for now. But it should be up again before the start of next week (well thats what I have told the users)
