‘Normal’ users get the message “You cannot create new topics.” when you add echo do_shortcode ('[bbp-topic-form]');
This is a similar topic to this message created almost three years ago, has anyone a solution for the current (latest) version of bbpress and wordpress.
Hello,
@clarasebeste
Thanks for you answer, but as you can see on the screenshot, bbpress has already a breadcrumb.
@robin-w
Thanks for this interessting Plugin. I test it with my Test-WP and identify this code for placing the subscription-toggle in the right:
.subscription-toggle {
float:right;
}
Add this in my childtheme/css/bbpress.css and it works. Thanks.
Found also in the extras a nice looking loop-forums.php for displaying the complete forum 😉

i tested the Bones framework custom post type archives and it shows the class, so does the downloads archive in Easy Digital Downloads , Woocommerce’s shop page has not problem though.
I dont know what to tell ya really??
I have duplicated my website on a test domain with another host provider, and it’s the same problem there too.
However, I have found out that it works perfect when I use Firefox, but not when I use Chrome or Internet Explorer.
As far as I can see I get the white page with “blocked” written on it when the login and register page redirects to the wp-login.php page.
Is it possible to redirect from the register page and the login page to the forum page without involving the wp-login.php page?
Thanks again
Regards

I made some more testing. 4 testusers are subcribers of my forums in the testinstallation. If there is a new topic only the last subcriber get the notification mail and the admin-Email the Mail delivery failed notice because of noreply@mytestdomain.com. For me it looks like, there is a bug in version 2.5.5. What is the opinion of the experts?
Gerd
Hello Robkk,
thanks for your reply. At first I thought it was WP Better Emails or MailPoet Newsletter. I deaktivate this plugins, but the same.
Now I used a fresh Testinstallation of WP, installed bbpress and the same. If someone subscribe to forum, I got a Mail delivery failed notice.
I try a little search and found in this file \wp-contetnt\plugins\bbpress\includes\common\functions.php this code:
// Strip tags from text and setup mail data
$topic_title = strip_tags( bbp_get_topic_title( $topic_id ) );
$reply_content = strip_tags( bbp_get_reply_content( $reply_id ) );
$reply_url = bbp_get_reply_url( $reply_id );
$blog_name = wp_specialchars_decode( get_option( ‘blogname’ ), ENT_QUOTES );
$do_not_reply = ‘<noreply@’ . ltrim( get_home_url(), ‘^(http|https)://’ ) . ‘>’;
// For plugins to filter messages per reply/topic/user
$message = sprintf( __( ‘%1$s wrote:
// Strip tags from text and setup mail data
$topic_title = strip_tags( bbp_get_topic_title( $topic_id ) );
$topic_content = strip_tags( bbp_get_topic_content( $topic_id ) );
$topic_url = get_permalink( $topic_id );
$blog_name = wp_specialchars_decode( get_option( ‘blogname’ ), ENT_QUOTES );
$do_not_reply = ‘<noreply@’ . ltrim( get_home_url(), ‘^(http|https)://’ ) . ‘>’;
// For plugins to filter messages per reply/topic/user
$message = sprintf( __( ‘%1$s wrote:
So I think, the email will be generatet of bbpress. How can I prevent this Mail delivery failed notice?

Hi. I have inherited a site using BBpress and there are some issues with new user registration. The forum settings are to give new registered users a Participant role, and my WP default is Subscriber for new users.
However, when somebody new registers for the forum, they are given full Admin access in wordpress. Obviously not something that is desirable.
I’m running the latest versions of both WP and BB. Please advise!
@yrisse3
It could be a plugin issue
Plugins
Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
you can also see if your theme is causing the issue but its probably more of a plugin issue..
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

if the issue is only happening when only avada is the current theme then contact avada for help putting it back.

if switching the theme does fix the issue , and its not a plugin issue then contact your theme author for help.
Haha, that certainly would make things easier on everyone (myself included). The biggest issue here is that, without an account you cannot see the forums due to the way my site’s permission system is set up. So if you need to see code, let me know and I’ll give you the test account login information. 🙂
Forum Setup:
Final Fantasy XIV (FFXIV Background)
– General Discussion
– The Forge
– The Golden Quill
– Journals
– Ultima EX
All of the sub forums currently have the FFXIV handcoded into the CSS section so their backgrounds are also FFXIV. However, whenever a post is made in any of these forums, my base site background is the one showing. If possible, it would be great if any forum posts made in any of these specific forums had the correct corresponding background.
The same goes with my Guild Wars 2 section which has a Guild Wars 2-based background.
The thing is, I’m not sure if this is at all possible.
Hoping that I’ve explained that well. 🙂
Hi there,
I updated to the latest bbPress today and now Participant users are not able to edit their own posts and replies anymore (the Edit option doesn’t appear next to the posts). All other roles seem to be doing fine. I’ve tried deactivating all plugins and switching to the Twenty Fifteen theme but the problem persists, so it does seem to have been caused by the update. I’m running WordPress 4.1.1.
This is the website:
Home test
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
cool!! i will test it out on my test server and give ya some feedback later
i also see your plugin was mentioned here too
WPWeekly Episode 182 – John James Jacoby Talks BuddyPress, bbPress, and GlotPress
Hello. Since few people asked for it (I think there was even thread here few months ago), I’m trying to make my plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-rating/) compatible with bbPress. As far as I understand, bbPress got own filters for content and that’s exactly where I got stuck. I can’t find list of filters. I found bbp_get_reply_content and bbp_get_topic_content but they exhibit kind of weird behavior. bbp_get_topic_content does exactly nothing, and bbp_get_reply_content filters content of first post, which is actually topic and I’m pretty sure should be filtered by bbp_get_topic_content.
Screenshot
So questions are:
– Is there a list of filters?
– If no, what are filters I should use to filter content of topic, reply and forum?
– What is this problem I described above?
bbPress version is latest stable available.
ok, this could be lots of things, and part of what you mention is buddypress not bbpress.
so start with

and if you aren’t seeing forums/topics and replies in the back end then

new to WP and BBPRESS (latest versions)
I like threaded replys a few levels deep
When viewed on mobile the user image and left margin on reply distance pushes the text way to the right – offscreen after just a few threads
1 – can I have less less distance (left to right) between threaded replies?
2 – can I remove the user image to get more space for text?
WP and BBpress = latest
Just getting started….
I would like to edit the css for the user entries – so that I can reposition the user image/ remove the user image etc….
also control the width of the user entries
I don’t know where the css is located
I do know a bit about creating a child first… but still a wordpress newbie
any ideas?
Hi @robin-w,
I just realized that you responded to this. I’m not sure how I missed this!
I just tried to give this a go (man sometimes this stuff isn’t easy to find) and it’s so far not doing what I want. I’ll admit CSS is not always my friend.
The code I’m using is below:
.forum bbpress single single-forum postid-20 #fixed-background { background: url('http://www.heartwoodgaming.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/ffxiv-background.jpg'); }
I was hoping that would be how I needed to set it up, but I’m starting to think, not…
Could you take a look at that and let me know where I might have gone wrong? Let me know if you need access to my site to see my bbPress, I have a test account set up for situations such as this! 😛
Thanks in advance!
Morning all.
Most likely an obvious error my end but when i visit certain parts of the forum it does not show properly. For example if you view http://www.recipebrag.com/forums/forum/recipebrag-com/ it will show but if you then go to http://www.recipebrag.com/forums/ it looks like a blog post.
Where am I going wrong?
TIA
Stephen
ps using the latest wordpress bbpress etc
I’m still seeing this behavior in the latest bbpress. Tried the new “Recalculate the position of each reply” and all old posts that were edited in the WP Control Panel are “stuck” at the bottom.
Wordpress 4.1.1
bbpress 2.5.4
if it still doesn’t work, come back and when I get a moment I’ll try it in my test site
I hope the theme authors read this.
In the meantime either add it manually and keep a note
or add this to your functions file
//This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
if ( $translated_text == 'old text' ) {
$translated_text = 'new text';
}
return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );
just put the old and new words to change ‘old test’ and ‘new text’
Functions files and child themes – explained !
