Actually,I may be getting somewhere. When I log in as admin, it gets me to the backend, then I type the address mysite.com/forums – then I see that I am not logged in. However, when I type in: mysite.com/forums/community – then I am logged in on that page.
I wonder if it has anything to do with the redirect I have in functions:
function rkk_login_redirect($redirect_to, $request, $user) {
return (is_array($user->roles) && in_array('administrator', $user->roles)) ? admin_url() : site_url('/forums/');
}
add_filter('login_redirect', 'rkk_login_redirect', 10, 3);
You can see that discussion I had with @robkk here
I’ll do more testing tomorrow.
No, I am not in an enterprise environment. I am at home and I am testing the bbpress on the live site. I log in as admin or another user as moderator or another user as participant. It is the same. As it is now close to midnight, I’ll continue testing tomorrow and report back. I wonder if WordPress needs flushing its cache or something – never did it before. Just a thought.
How can I prevent “nofollow” from being added to my internal links on bbPress posts? (I have the latest version of bbPress and WordPress)
The “nofollow” attribute is being added to my internal links on my website (DCJTech.info). However, this issue only occurs on bbPress posts, but not WordPress pages. Here is an example of the problem (bbPress post) – http://dcjtech.info/topic/general-unixoid-topics/
I have tried commenting out the below lines from ./includes/core/filters.php, but without success. I also cleared the cache (server and browser) and waited a minute before checking the page’s source code.
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_content', 'bbp_rel_nofollow', 50 );
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_content', 'bbp_rel_nofollow', 50 );
I used ‘grep -r -e “follow” ./plugins‘ to find all code that may be inserting “nofollow”, and I also searched my theme and mu-plugins. In addition, I searched my SQL database (via phpMyAdmin) for “follow”. I did not find any plugin, setting, etc. that could be causing this problem. There were no “nofollow” attributes in the posts either. I also searched my plugins for “bbp_rel_nofollow”.
I disabled “External Links” and commented out the previously mentioned bbPress code (and cleared the cache), but the “nofollow” attribute was still on my internal links.
I thoroughly checked the WordPress codex website, forums (like https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/turning-no-follow-links-to-do-follow/ ), etc., but I cannot find a solution or cause.
Guten Abend laberkopp,
@robin-w
I checked your profile picture and I think I have seen you before 🙂
bbPress profiles are open by default to all, so also users that are not logged in could see your profile. I know Robin has made a quick patch for a previous version (http://www.rewweb.co.uk/bbpress-making-profile-pages-private/) but I’m not sure if it’s still valid for the current version.
Some other (untested!) snippets can be found here: http://seventhqueen.com/blog/code-snippets/restrict-guest-users-from-accessing-buddypress-or-bbpress-pages.html
Regards, Pascal.
I not test with any role yet. But i’m just install bbpress plugin.
Have you been testing with any custom role and capability plugins?
Sorry guys was probably tired or something, I should have led you guys to this explaining how to deactivate plugins when you cannot get into the admin panel.
https://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F
And @bdsand I should have led you to this for the blank screen, but I am glad you fixed it.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Common_WordPress_Errors#The_White_Screen_of_Death
As for this issue, bbPress shouldn’t behave like this during deactivation of bbPress.
See if some of the steps from here can help you.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Login_Trouble
I am guessing you guys are both getting the same error notice like this.
You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page
- You may also want to see what is the url after you get the permission error, see if there is an extra query in the url like
?restricted or something.
- Check in a different browser to see if you get the same issue.
- Check in a different user with a different user role(make sure you create a test user before deactivating bbPress)
You guys can also test out your themes and plugins in a local test site/test server on your computer to see if you can duplicate the issue there.
Creating a Test Site
Hi,
First of all, don’t mix the goals of the plugins. Your initial question is about wp-login, so Wangguard and TML are dealing with that.
If you deviate on Antispam Bee and Akismet, then you more talk about checking what is posted, not the posters.
Wangguard is free and SHOULD remain free for small non-profit organizations. See FAQ (https://www.wangguard.com/faq) WangGuard is free during these first months after our launch around the world. Later it will continue to be free for all users with personal blogs that do not exceed 200€ per month in revenue or 6,000 requests per month.
I did not see a specific support question that indicated that Antispam Bee did not work with bbpress, but I never tested.
Pascal.
Hi, yes, the forum index is using a shortcode.
I have also done a full reset using the Forum Tools.
I think I have found the issue. Everything works fine, and everything updates fine, but as soon as I activate the bbP username Plugin, the Forum index doesn’t update with the latest Username (the avatar still updates fine).
The Username that it gets replaced by is the Admins. But what’s strange is that, the Admins username still links to the new usernames profile. So basically, it’s just the text that’s not updating.
It’s only when a user creates a New Topic. If a user Replies to a Topic, the Username and Avatar update fine.
[bbp-topic-index] shortcode also updates fine with Username and Avatar
Do you have any idea of what could be causing this?
Thanks again!
Kam
As much as I tested it, it worked well, but I contacted plugin’s author and he said that there might still be some issues with it and that he will create a plugin/fix for bbPress in near future.
@jrunfitpro
Sorry for the late reply.
Since you said it is not a plugin issue causing it and you have done other troubleshooting to see if a code snippet in a theme could be causing it, create a test user, just a participant/subscriber user, then you can deactivate bbPress so I can see the issue you are getting. Contact me through email so that you do not need to post login details on the forum.
Contact
@bdsand
If you have already done some troubleshooting and have not found an issue, you can let me test to see what could be causing the issue too.
Could be an issue with theme compatibility in bbPress. To get around that make a bbpress.php file in your theme.
Getting Started in Modifying the Main bbPress Template
You can see what WordPress conditionals affect what bbPress pages by using the test that is explain in this ticket from the user. Or you can check the theme compat file in bbPress.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2723
@davidschwartzer
I will try to test out your theme (Simplecatch) to see if it is causing any issues, then come back to you with any solutions.
You can reactivate bbPress New UI plugin and use the CSS you had again as of course those plugins were not causing an issue.
Perhaps I added a page or category in a way I wasn’t supposed to. I tried to follow the step by step guide on the bbPress site but clearly I did something wrong.
This may be why your forum root page /forums is blank for some reason, but I will check it out.
I digged a bit further because I was almost sure that it could do it… and it seems so. Check out https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
According to https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/per-forum-permissions-by-group/page/5/ v1.7 had : Moderators can now be set to moderate all forums or just their group ones (plus any open forums)
To be tested of course if it helps with your question.
Pascal.
Hi Lakrush ,
@robkk
I have written to the author by email and on the support forum to see if I can take over the php or help with the project. I’m giving him some days to respond.
I have already adapted the php plugin with the input from the support forum there, now I need to test it still, but as said I’m waiting for the author to be sure he is no longer maintaining it himself.
Pascal.
Thank you very much. I did set up the bbpres.php template on the basis of page.php – the same way as I did in my test site. However, this does not work for the user profile at all on the live site for some strange reason. Just now I found a workaround by using CSS – not sure if this is the correct way. But I would really like to know what the bbpress.php works for all pages except the user page. The CSS I used is:
body.bbp-user-page.single.singular.bbpress div#content.grid.col-620 {
width: 100%;
}
body.bbp-user-page.single.singular.bbpress div#widgets.grid.col-300.fit {
display: none;
}
Please let me have your thoughts.
The forum search should show up on the forum archive page that is usually yoursite.com/forums by default and I do see it there on your site.
The input box for the math captcha could just be a CSS issue. Unless you have anonymous posting activated in bbPress, you may need to send me account details for a Subscriber/Participant test user account as I may need to be logged in to your site to be able to even see the captcha.
Also not sure why you are using bbPress with some other forum software plugin, you could possibly get issues by having them both activated together. If you are just importing from one to the other your simplepress data should stay in your database and you just import all of that.
You should try some troubleshooting to see if some of the issues could be theme related. Make sure to check in a theme like Twenty Twelve, and also check to see if Simplepress could be causing an issue if you have it activated with bbPress.
Troubleshooting
I have a fairly large vbulletin 4.0.3 forum (sql dump installed locally), and am currently testing importing it into bbPress on a local xampplite install. I have a clean install of WordPress 4.3.1 and latest bbPress. Running the importer, it has run through 1600 users, 1300 topics and so far 4200 replies (100 at a time), at which it has paused, with the wheel turning happily. My question is, what’s causing the pause? Are there limits (such as sql queries per hour) that I can change to speed up the process? And if so, where do I change them? Given it’s a local install, I’m not worried about performance impact if I allocate max resources to this task. Any info welcome!
And how long should I let it spin before deciding it’s stuck and terminating it?
TIA
I’m using the Cafe Pro Genesis child theme and the latest version of bbpress. I would like to add a border to the text boxes on the topic and reply forms but can’t find the bbpress css in Genesis. Anyone know where to find it?
Do you have any hidden forums?? Hidden forums are only for Admins and mods, participants might get a 404. There might also be a bug if you are using it with BuddyPress groups for group forums.
You can test to see if it could still be a user capability issue on your site too. Just installing a plugin that modifies the bbPress user role capabilities could mess it up and it could still mess up even if you removed the plugin. Some users say the Members plugin by Justin Tadlock resolves some user role capability issues just by installing it, so you can try that.
Makes sure to test this in a default theme to make sure you do not have multiple issues regarding capability issues and a theme issue.
Make sure to test with your normal Keymaster role and also with a testuser accout with a Participant role.
@paul-burwell
Yeah only Admins and moderators can see hidden forums. Private forums are forums for only logged in users though, participants can see private forums too.
I will test to see if there is a bug with BuddyPress groups later today.
I am having issues with the forums, I can’t see the forums. No matter what I set the forum user role too; even moderator. The forums are public and open. My administrator account can see the forums but not the moderator account. I am using buddypress with about 15 other plugins I figured it may be a plugin conflict so I disabled all the plugins except bbpress and buddypress. but I still don’t see the forums. Also on a side note my site has been doing weird stuff. I have all the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress. I was wandering if there is a way to clear the server side cache as this may be the problem not just with the forums not showing up but with the other issues as well
I installed user role capability in the first installed i noticed this issue on, but while running a test, i chooses a different installation that does not have user role and capabilty editor, andthe problem remain the same even when all the plugins are deactivated.
Hello there,
I think, to have after a long testing found the solution.
For those who are perhaps facing the same problem:
It is probably important to use the same prefix from the original source of the database. If the login information and the prefix agree, works of import.
I wish you success.
Hey @Robkk2.0
Thanks for your response. But am sorry for taking to long to respond. Is just that I was tryen the new ideas you gave me to see which one will work it out. But I regrete to come back without any solution yet.
I deactivated all plugins except bbpress, but it does not resolve it.
I Have no caching plugin on the site as it stands now.
Ideactivated, deleted, re-install, andre-activated bbpress, and yet, no solution.
I switched theme to default twentyfifteen, and the issue just changed, but to no better.
Here is the situation on the default theme.
Logged out users can view the forum root, and every topics, but once logged with participant role, every page will start return to error 404, both the forum root, except the forums that are associated with the buddypress group, which can only be accessed through the group.
But with moderator’s role and admin role, been logged in, he/she can view the forum root and all othe forums, topics and replies the way it surpose to be.
Since installation, I was using Admin role and capability to access my site, untill I created a new user to test run some page do I started noticing all these. So I cannot tell exactly if it worked fine at onset.
