Latest versions of bbpress, WordPress and all other Plugins.
Hey Guys,
I have the latest WordPress 4.1.2 and bbPress 2.5.7 and I’m having a problem where when I search for a user in the admin of WordPress and try and either bulk edit the user or click on the User Profile link and I get redirected to the home page.
I have narrowed it down to a conflict with the Groups plugin 1.5.1 and I’m wondering if anyone else has found this?
Other points:
– User links work to edit the profile or bulk edit if you DON’T search but we can’t do this as our user db is 1,400 odd people and it takes too long
– I’ve tried changing to the default theme and deactivating all plugins and it still happens
– I have tried installing bbPress 2.5.7 and Groups 1.5.1 on a fresh install of WordPress and got the same results with a user database of 2 people.
It only happens when you search… If I remove the wp_http_referrer information from the User Edit Profile link the link works… There’s some weird conflict going on with the referrer in the link…
Any help greatly appreciated by all!
did you create a custom widget?? it might be better if you did for this because then you could output all of the links to the user profile.
unfortunately not, as i’m using a plugin (jquery-vertical-accordion-menu) for the accordion/dropdown menu widget for that menu, which makes it more complicate, i guess. does the
$id_base = 'dc_jqaccordion_widget';
help with this and if where and what else to put in the code for a custom widget that’s using the accordion/dropdown menu as well?
initially hoped that making a redirect via permalink in functions.php or via page template would be the fastest and easiest solution. am i totally wrong with this?
as i’m not familiar with coding, i see a high risk of having set wrong variables all the time. i’m using default bbpress setting with a nicername/username instead of user’s id in the permalink.
my latest post disappeared, maybe because of too many links.
probably
the default menu below the avatar shall be removed and appear in the sidebar on the right in a dropdown menu ( not only to make a consistent layout but also to prevent users to see the information also on other user profiles).

I tested this plugin: FriendlyCase
And unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be compatible with bbPress.
@robkk, thanks again for your support. my latest post disappeared, maybe because of too many links.
regarding the new menu, i hope this image can explain it better:
the default menu below the avatar shall be removed and appear in the sidebar on the right in a dropdown menu ( not only to make a consistent layout but also to prevent users to see the information also on other user profiles). Optimally it should be shown only when the user is logged in, but yet i’d be very happy to get it working no matter of the user’s login status.
unfortunately i can’t provide a link at the moment, so i put the id’s at the image.
parent menu items are “nachrichten” and “account”.
in “account” the links for the user profiles shall be displayed as sub menus.
the parent menu-code looks like this:
<li id="menu-item-566" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page cur…ancestor menu-item-has-children menu-item-566 dcjq-parent-li">
the sub menu show profile-code like this:
<li id="menu-item-572" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-572"></li>
(for “edit profile” I already found a menu-link solution)
[btw: default theme twenty twelve]
Ohh unfortunately it is not fully fixed yet 🙁 the “send” button of the compose form is always partly hidden by the our sidebar on the right. It’s different with various browsers: more or less hidden.
On the screenshot you see that the send button just is “se”, the rest is hidden.

Note: The German translation for “send” is “senden”, so if you see “send” there are still 2 letters missing.
Hello , i just installed bbpress on my wordpress , i opened new Theme page and echo shortcode [bbp-forum-index] , i can see the forum , but when enter the test forum , it’s not enter inside it , what to do i don’t know bbPress much , here a link to my forum page :
http://xn—-7hcbracas6eta3ak.tv/forums/
sorry for Language but you should understand because forums is at middle there and i am sure you can see it clearly , Thanks in advacned.
I’m still testing, but I think this does it:
.activity-list li.bbp_topic_create .activity-content .activity-inner, .activity-list li.bbp_reply_create .activity-content .activity-inner {
display: none !important;
}
It shows bbPress forum titles in BuddyPress activity streams, but not content of the reply/post.
Hope this helps anyone who might need it.
When a user activates the plugin, they get three new items on their wp-admin board. Forums, Topics, and Replies.
Then in the tools section we have tools to solve basic issues with the plugin.
Finally in the Settings tab we have the Forums menu again to allow us to control basic settings of the plugin.
The problem with this layout… It’s TOO much and it’s very scattered. I would think the admin structure would be better if we took all the different items and put them under 1 category. Forum or bbPress whichever sounds better I guess.
From there we would have the main landing page which would either be the latest update information or the settings page.
Across the top we would have replies, forums, topics. (in any order I suppose). Then from there we would have the ability to create new or edit past pages in those categories.
Pros
– Much Cleaner administration board
– Easier to find what you are looking for.
Cons
– More clicking to get to certain sections.
Just an idea I had because WordPress administration boards seem to be getting cluttered these days.
Hello!
I’ve been reading all the topics on the forum and i found many similar issues to my problem, but now solution worked. I disabled all plugins and tried it with default theme also.
When someone subscribes(or creates a topic) to a topic or forum and then someone replys to it, no emails are being sent out to the guy who subscribed. Im using buddypress and bbpress newest version, and buddypress emails-like register, private message etc working, but noone of bbpress related emails are being sent out. I’m using WP SMTP now(before i was using WP MAIL SMTP, but then someone in this forum said if he changed to WP SMTP plugin it started sending, but didnt help for me), and test emails are being sent correctly also.(without any smtp plugin it doesnt work also)
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Daniel
Thanks a lot! That helped immediately with the hidden text.
But the other problems persist. I made two screenshots. The first will show the wrapped letters at “Stimmen” and “Beiträge”:

The other shows a minor problem at topic display:

PS: I tested this with both browsers, Firefox and Chrome.
I’ve just had a look at my test site, and I think the code is not working as it should. Topics are fine, bur replies refer to the original topic date/time not the latest reply date/time. So if no reply it is correct, but otherwise wrong !
I’ll take a look at the source code when I get a chance, but maybe some days away. I’m not the plugin author, just a humble user !
ok, I’ve just loaded that code to my test site and it all works fine, the artisan role gives moderator access.
Not sure what has happened, what other changes have there been to your site?
He had the same results when set to an Artisan
Presume you mean he could not access, and by the by what do you mean by that? what happens when they try and access the forums, can they not see menu item, or what do they get when they try??
Hi @robin-w!
Thanks for replying back about this. I’m sorry I failed to mention my troubleshooting. It definitely worked when I set up my husband’s account as a Councilman, and I tested every single rank on his account. He had the same results when set to an Artisan.
At that point, I came here because I can’t see anything wrong with the code.
Thanks again for the reply! 🙂
ok, i got it (loop-replies.php):
<?php $count=1; while ( bbp_replies() ) : bbp_the_reply(); ?>
<?php
$post_id = get_the_ID();
//save the new count
update_post_meta($post_id, 'bbp_seq_test', $count) ;
?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'single-reply' );
$count = $count + 1 ;
?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
and define a function show_seq()
$post_id = get_the_ID();
$count = get_post_meta( $post_id, 'bbp_seq_test', true );
echo $count;
and then in loop-single-reply.php
` <a href=”<?php bbp_reply_url(); ?>” class=”bbp-reply-permalink”>#<?php show_seq(); ?></a>
`
and it works!
please take a look!

you can have multiple roles with the same capabilities, so the original code should be fine.
So I would check
1. that the moderator role which you have renamed Councilman works
2. that if you set up a test user and give them Artisan, that that works (ie is it only her)
PS, i don’t have any knowledge with programming. i hope you can help me as much as you can.
ok, without programming, the best I can offer is the latest activity widget in
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
I can’t seem to get my translation to work since updating to 2.5.6.
Wordpress version: 4.1.1
Site language: da_DK
The forum changed to english after updating BBpress. Before that, it worked fine in Danish language.
I’ve tried uploaded bbpress-da_DK.po and bbpress-da_DK.mo til both /wp-content/languages/bbpress and /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-languages but it still doesn’t work on frontend and backend.
My wp-config.php is set to da_DK.
I’ve also tried to deactivate some of the latest plugins i’ve installed but it doesn’t do it.
Hope someone can help me solve this.

Thanks. I did look through all the troubleshooting steps…
something is pretty bizzare here.. so I tested connecting to the mysql server from the webserver via cmdline,
mysql -h 208.97.xx.xx -u username -pPassword DBName
all works fine.
I try the exact same information in the importer and nothing happens, no errors are logged, nothing.. so then for fun, I try removing the username and I get the following:
Warning: mysql_connect(): No such file or directory in /home/username/mysite/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1416
Not really the error message I would expect, but none the less.. I put back in the username and get the exact same error. It’s like it’s not passing the variables through. Any other suggestions?
If your site is that busy, you really should have a test site
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
After some more testing this only appears to be an issue when a single account is replying to a topic that they have created and/or are the only individual subscribed to it. I guess this makes sense because you would not want to receive an email notification of your own posts, however it does not make sense that an email is still being generated. It may be a worthy modification to prevent emails being sent to noreply if there is no bcc header set.
I can try this but when do most people do this? I have 5-10 people on my site pretty much anytime of the day. How can I test this without interrupting people that are using the site?
ok, I thin k this is your theme – can you try a default one such as twentyten, just as a test
