Do I need to remove “Disallow” from robots file then? How should this file look after I updated my pages with this code <meta name=”robots” content=“noindex, follow”/>?
Is this possible? I never read thru the faq’s but i saw a site using your software and I love it. Is this possible? I never edited any of the raw php code in php, but changed the template a bit so the banner points to /. can this be easily done? I do have one custom theme….would that need to go? please direct me to the FAQ on this procedure
Different approach, new account, let’s hope my posts don’t automatically get flagged as spam this time.
Ok, I’m running Version 2.0-rc-1.
Amongst my forums I have a forum that I have set to:
Status: Open
Visibility: Hidden.
Admins can see and use it just fine.
Editors can only see it though, when I go to the forum page (as an Editor) /forums/forum/<forum-name>/ I get a “Page Not Found. The page you were looking for was not found.” Other forums / topics work just fine.
I’m running the members plugin mentioned above (the new one) and I have given editors the following caps (amongst other stuff):
read_hidden_forums (added this myself, just to be sure, because it was not in the list)
read_hidden_topics (added this myself, just to be sure, because it was not in the list)
read_hidden_replies (added this myself, just to be sure, because it was not in the list)
read_private_forums
read_private_topics
read_private_replies
I also tried making a new role with those caps, but that doesn’t help either.
I’m probably overlooking something, anyone who can help?
Take care,
Pim
Andre, Thank You very much. You have simplified my life.
sorry but i dont understand a thing, template files have different name from 1.0 to 2.0?
i’ve now installed the 2.0 plugin version just for test, but under the docs section of this site there are named template files which i cant find in bbp-twentyten theme.
For example front-page.php is deprecated?
now do we have to use page-front-forums?
someone can help?
p.s. sorry for my bad english
p.s.2 i’m a good wordpress theme developer

Hello,
I’m adding bbPress 2.0 beta 3 to a WordPress site. It seems to work pretty well, except that it says on my profile “You are not currently subscribed to any topics.” even though I am subscribed to two topics. The same goes for Favorite forums and Topics Created.
I checked the code and it seems that bbp_get_user_topics_started(), bbp_get_user_subscriptions() and bbp_get_user_favorites() are all returning false. I’m logged in as the user with ID 2 and these rows are in the usermeta table:
37 2 _bbp_favorites 54,56
41 2 _bbp_subscriptions 56,61
That suggests that favorizing and subscribing works, but there seems to be a bug in bbp_get_user_subscriptions(), bbp_get_user_topics_started() and bbp_get_user_favorites().
In the file bbp-user-functions.php the function bbp_get_user_favorites on line 193 return array(2) { [0]=> string(2) “54” [1]=> string(2) “56” } but bbp_has_topics() on line 197 return false. I guess the same happens in bbp_get_user_subscriptions() so the problem should be in the function bbp_has_topics().
I’m not enough of a WP-expert to dive into bbp_has_topics(), which is why I’m posting here. Do you know what the problem could be?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
is there a possibility to add BBCode to bbPress 2.0?
The plugin “BBCode Lite for BuddyPress” is written for bbPress 1.x and doesn’t work when put into wp-content/plugins.
Thanks,
neontrauma
Try this:
[bbp-single-forum id="A forum ID"] – Show a specific forum
There are more shortcodes available here:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-theme-compatibility
How to make the forum can be inserted on the pages (or posts) using short tag, such as [forum-1], [forum-2].
I use a blog with many sections and I was extremely convenient to have in each section of the appropriate forum.
I still have not figured out the code, it may already implemented … Tell me, please.
And if this has not realized, then, could you do this?
Thank you.
And… Sorry for my english
@johan – Not a bug, since it’s possible to have several pages of favorites and subscriptions too. If you don’t have enough for a second page, then there aren’t any to show. 
Those should probably be broken up into pages at some point, though.
Seems to be part of the same issue others are experiencing. I’m on it.
Moving discussion here going forward.
Yeah, I figured. It’s because I’m using a hook that is pretty general for the templates, ‘bbp_template_notices’ or something.
If I could use a hook that is only going to insert the bar just above the post form then I would, but I haven’t seen one. Below the post form could work, but I don’t like that much -_-
It seems that your theme is missing the <?php do_action( 'wp_footer' ); ?> at the bottom of your (probably) footer.php file.
I used this action hook to insert the deletion javascript that i mentioned on the ‘ive just made…’ thread 
In fact, from viewing the source to your site, your entire footer.php doesn’t seem to be loaded. The HTML structure stops at:
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #container -->
Same here.. users cant reply or create new topics.. not even the administrator of the multisite.. only the super admin can see forums in the admin and create topics/replys
im using subdomain multisite.. and using bbPress plugin Version 2.0-beta-3b
im gonna start tinkering with the code
any insight on what classes should be modified would be useful thanks!
Hi, Ive just installed the bbpress plug in into my WordPress installation and I get an error.
I’m guessing its a template issue but wondered if anyone could suggest a fix.
If I add the short code for the forum index it works fine, but if you click a link to the forum itself I get the following:
Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in PATHTOTHEFOLDER/wp-content/themes/rttheme7/functions.php on line 290
Can anyone recommend anything to fix this?
Regards
David
Seems that this line of code is stopping the plugin from being activated:
bb_register_plugin_activation_hook(__FILE__,’report_post_install’);
When I remove this it the plugin activates, but doesn’t work. Can anyone identify what the problem is?
Hi I have installed the report-posts plugin and added the code to the page (http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/report-post/#post-493).
Pasted the code as specified:
<?php report_post_link(); ?>
But I keep getting this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_current_user_can() in /opt/lampp/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/report-post/report-post.php on line 38
Anyone know why?
@Carsten.M – You need to use the numeric ID of the forum. I realize this isn’t the easiest for everyone, but it’s the easiest and fastest way to develop it for now. In the future we’ll open this up to other things and build a UI for it all.
@Nate – I updated the instructions at the top with more details. Give them another go. All you need to do is copy the contents of bbp-twentyten into your theme, and merge the style.css and functions.php files together so they fit what you need – this I can’t help with because it involves code only you probably know.
@John
Thanks for responding. I thought I followed every step. Let me clarify since I messed up my earlier clarification.
I initially copied the default theme put it in the same plugin directory and renamed it to bbp-empt. I included the function code in my main theme “Cost” directory function.php file. After some fooling around I realized nothing was working so I came here and followed every step in this thread instead of half-assin it like it did before.
I would prefer not to use a child theme since I’m the Author of the “Cost” named theme I’m using. I guess I don’t quite understand how I get bbpress to use bbp-empt when it’s sitting in my Cost directory. Is there a instruction manual that describes that process?
Or is it a simple function name change or is there a place in the WP admin area I missed which allows you to chose the which template bbpress uses?
Great. Now if only we would have bbPress 2…
Great. Now if only we would have bbPress 2…
Anything is possible
but sadly there isn’t an importer from IPB yet.
@nate – Seems you’re only following some of the steps outlined above.
To start you’ll want to research WordPress child themes and how to make one. If you decide to go that route, then your new theme doesn’t go inside the old one, it goes in the /themes/bbp-empt/ folder that you create. It kinda sounds like you figured that out, but it’s hard to tell from your comment if it’s working for you.
I’m having an issue and not understanding how to fix it is driving me bonkers. I’ve followed the steps above but let me explain how I did it.
Once the plugin was installed I copied the bbp-twentyten folder from the plugin directory;
C:xampphtdocsempt-wpwp-contentpluginsbbpressbbp-themesbbp-twentyten
and put it into my main themes directory and renamed it to bbp-empt.
C:xampphtdocsempt-wpwp-contentthemescostbbp-empt
I opened the bbp-empt style.css and changed the Template name to;
Template: cost
and added an import for the css.
I have every file in the “bbp-empt” folder than was in the original “bbp-twentyten” folder plus files like archive.php, page.php and single.php from my “cost” folder.
I’m confused as to how I get the forums to use the template files in “bbp-empt” and not the files in the “cost” main directory. Which is what is happening right now.
Small update
After some experimenting I changed the bbp-empt folder style.css in the plugins folder to say cost in the template name and changed other details. Noticed the change in the Appearance menu so I clicked to activate the template and now I’m using a child theme of my main theme with the bbpress using the bbp-empt files.
So now I’m honestly just confused, if this works whats the point of moving it to your main themes directory?
