Thanks guys

@VanDuch – Private and Hidden forums perform extra capability checks, and hide the contents of those forums from profile pages, widgets, and anyplace forum content is available. This was a bit complicated to pull off, so if you find any bugs I’m happy to investigate and fix.

Yes, you’ll want to make them as WordPress plugins that specifically hook into bbPress actions and filters.

There are tons of places where things can be overridden, and it shouldn’t take long to learn the hierarchy. Everything inside the php files is documented pretty well, and eventually that will get moved over to this site with a codex.

This is slightly guesswork, but based on my understanding of the code.

(1) You should write your bbPress plugin as if it’s a WordPress plugin.

(2) Searching the bbPress folder for do_action will give you all the bbPress hooks, and searching for apply_filters will give you the list of filters (there are a LOT of them). Learning the important functions is trickier – they seem fairly spread out around the code amongst the less important functions. For that, I guess we’ll need to wait for documentation.

Hello,

Not entirely sure if this would be the best topic to post this, but running WordPress in debug mode, I’m getting quite a few non-object notices.

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /home/design24/public_html/klanten/20/wp-includes/general-template.php on line 1477

Also, when editing this post with some proper code markup there seems to be 2 Notify me of follow-up posts via email boxes available.

[John James Jacoby]

Yes it is possible. The shortcodes you want are most likely…

[bbp-forum-index]

[bbp-topic-index]

When bbPress 2.0 officially launches, there will be an interface for these hidden shortcodes.

You should install the development (trunk) version of bbPress standalone. That has this thing fixed.

Hey!

I and Ben L. recently released a bbPress standalone to plugin converter (bbS2P) to help you out with importing. But now, that has been deprecated as most of the code that was in there has been ported into the bbPress plugin itself.

Got some hint? (I think) You’re right! You can now convert your bbPress standalone install into the bbPress plugin from right inside the bbPress plugin itself! Just have the bbPress plugin activated, go to Tools -> Import -> bbPress Standalone and follow on-screen instructions.

Note: It is highly recommended that you have a backup of your whole database before doing this.

Thanks!

Where can I download it?

1. Your WordPress admin area

2. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/

Where do I report bugs?

1. http://bbpress.org/forums/ (use the tag ‘bbpress-plugin’)

2. http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org

Where can I report a security vulnerability?

1. http://wordpress.org/about/contact/

2. jjj in #bbpress on freenode on IRC

Where do support questions go?

Use these forums the same as always, and use the tag ‘bbpress-plugin’

Does this integrate with BuddyPress?

bbPress 2.0 integrates with BuddyPress activity streams, profile links, and avatars. bbPress 2.0 does not yet integrate with Groups, but it also will not conflict with them. This means there are no code conflicts or errors by leaving both activated.

Forums and topics are not showing up in my theme!

Try resaving your permalinks.

Is there an importer from a 1.0 installation?

A first attempt is included, and it needs testing. That’s where you come in!

Where can I contribute translations

http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/

Where is the documentation?

In the code itself right now. There’s not a lot of sense in creating documentation for pre-release software, as anything is subject to change. There will be a bbPress codex coming soon after release, so sit tight.

Why can my admin post videos, and normal users can’t?

Admin accounts in WordPress are granted a specific capability that enables them to post any kind of content they choose. Normal users do not have this ability, and are restricted to a specific set of HTML tags.

What is happening to bbPress 1.x?

It will continue to be maintained into the foreseeable future but is feature frozen, meaning no new features will get put in.

Can the bbPress Plugin 2.0 Beta be installed without WordPress?

No. bbPress 2.0 is strictly a plugin for WordPress.

How can I set which users can do what things?

You’ll want to use existing WordPress plugins if you want to customize the capabilities of your users. Start with Members or User Role Editor but be careful! It’s possible to lock yourself out of your site if you remove your own capabilities, so don’t fuss about if you’re not sure what you’re doing.

P.S.

We really do need a solution that allows members to post code in a “safe” way. I’ve already got members wanting to post helpful code snippets for each other, and they can’t.

Is something like this in the plan? Or should I develop a custom plugin that makes it possible?

Thanks,

Jonathan

Awesome i wai for the plugin…thats the reason why i wait to release my new project xD

Hi All,

I’ve recently added some forums to my site and although they look good I’m unable to resize the forum listing and as such the forum listing collides with the side bar and looks awful

the forums are here: http://barnstormers.org.uk/forums/

I have a ‘Forums’ page set up using the bbpress forum index page template.

Can anyone let me know how to resolve this as the site will be going officially live in a few days.

Cheers,

Seb

bbPress have a long tradition of “working alphas” is this the case again? I mean can I consider now that once beta and final version are released it won’t mean reconverting everything again from scrath?

You won’t need to convert anything now, there might be normal internal upgrades.

would I better off waiting for the final release and importer, specially if we plan to integrate buddypress on this installation afterwards.

I’d recommend at least waiting for the official alpha of the plugin.

I actually did wrap the code in a code tag, and it did nothing. The code just executed. Of course once I sanitized the code, it got highlighted in yellow.

Hi Alex,

at line 21 you use: SHOW TABLES FROM db_name in order to retrieve bbPress tables. This is a wrong approach cause you assume that in the database there are only bbPress tables which is not guaranteed.

You should only backup the tables with the bbPress prefix. Check the $bb_table_prefix global variable.
