sorry for the late reply, I have been busy elsewhere.

Read private forums is fine, and as it should be.

I have carefully read through the above, and am struggling to help you further.

The best I can suggest is that you set up a test site

https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/

so that you can try with a default theme and not break you live site

[m_elghag]

Ok, thought there might be an easy way to just add an conditional to the whole code and test if the forum has a certain parameter.

[Robkk]

well its not really a limit on having a certain number of forums
i think its just a limit of it being on the root page since it doesn’t have pagination.

for example if you have over 50 forums displayed in the forum root page any additional forum will not display

i found this function doing a search , i havent tested though.

plop the code into your child themes functions.php file or your functionality plugin
and change 100 to whatever you like

function bbp_increase-forum-per-page( $args = array() ) {
$args['posts_per_page'] = get_option( ‘_bbp_forums_per_page’, 100 );
return $args;
}
add_filter( ‘bbp_before_has_forums_parse_args’, ‘bbp_increase-forum-per-page’ );

code is from this topic

Hitting 50 forum limit? What can I do?

[Robkk]

so if we forget

no one forget.

i cant test it out without buying the plugin.

i did find this in like 20 seconds though

http://userproplugin.com/userpro/forums/topic/integrating-userpro-profile-links-user-badges-in-bbpress/

[Robkk]

try combining the two into this and try it.

i tested in twenty-fourteen and it worked.

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic li.bbp-body div.topic {
    background-color: #0099FF;
    border: 1px solid #dd6;

On my site I have several boards in each Forum. Is there a way of showing which of the boards have the latest post? Or alternatively is there an option to show unread posts?

Wordpress 4.0, bbPress 2.5.4. The forums are not available to view as they are member only.

What I want is some indication of which board the red circled item refers to in the attached image.

The reason for this is that sending out subscription emails one by one was appreciably slowing down some large sites, so in the last update they switched to bcc’ing in subscribers.

It’s fairly straightforward to change how the subscription emails are handled once you know how. If you unhook ‘bbp_notify_topic_subscribers’ you can then hook in your own subscription function.

Below is similar to what I did – I have it in a plugin but you could put it in your bbpress-functions.php file too, I think – this should be in a child theme. If you do this, please test it first as this is simply an example and not necessarily working code. I’ve gone ahead and simply pasted in the function that was used in the previous version of bbPress so you don’t have to find it.

//custom topic subscription emails, unhook old function, hook in new one
remove_action( 'bbp_new_reply',    'bbp_notify_topic_subscribers', 11, 5 );
add_action( 'bbp_new_reply',    'mjj_bbp_notify_topic_subscribers', 11, 5 );

Okay I managed to do roughly what I wanted without changing the functions.php. Here’s how:

1) I installed bbP Members Only plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-members-only/, I then created a test forum and topic

2) I created a page called ‘member login’ and put the [bbp-login] shortcode in this page (no menu link for this page)….

Hello,

@atfpodcast
i just checked on my side with the latest raindrops theme ,

i checked to see if all of the quicktag buttons worked
they did.

i checked if some of the bbcodes from gdbbpress and bbpress2 bbcode didnt just process the bbcode out well
they did.

i didnt run bbpress2 bbcode with bbpress direct quotes while gdbbpress tools activated at the same time, because i mean they do the same thing.

if you feel like the quicktags toolbar is really causing the problem and you have some error logs to post or images of error logs or any other info you can get while debugging is on, make a new topic with all the information in it.

[readwriteandedit]

I’m trying to format the background and the border for the lead topic, just as you’ve done here in the bbPress forum. I used Firebug to see your code, which is

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic li.bbp-body {
    border: 1px solid #dd6;
}
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic li.bbp-body div.topic {
    background-color: #0099FF;
}

But when I add this to my child theme’s CSS (where I’ve successfully made other bbPress changes), nothing changes.

I don’t know if something else I’ve changed is preventing this from changing or maybe if you have something in the setup that I don’t have, something that allows you to style this in CSS when I can’t.

Any suggestions? The forum is private, but I can get you in temporarily, if that would help. Or I could paste into a comment all the changes to bbPress I made in my CSS.

(Note: I changed your color for testing purposes)

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hello, @Robin-W

Thanks for your quick reply.

I tried to deactivate all plugins i have except for bbpress(actually i also tried to reinstall all of them that can be connected to bbpress) and it gave no result.
I am in fear of changing my theme as it can just break all the site, so i can’t do it now(but my theme author actually was the on who suggested to use your plugin, so i believe it shouldn’t be the case)

So currently i have this:

Main: WordPress 4.0

Theme: Kleo 2.1.1

Plugins installed and activated:
bbP last post 1.0
bbP private groups 2.4
bbPress 2.5.4
bbPress – Private Replies 1.2

bbPress Go To First Unread Post 1.1
bbPress Pencil Unread 1.0.9
bbPress Post Toolbar 0.7.5
bbPress String Swap 1.4.0
bbP topic count 1.3.1
Black Stupio TinyMCE Widget 2.1.6

Rss Post Importer 1.0.7
Use Any Font 4.2.1
wp-Monalisa 3.4
WP Login Timeout Settings 1.1.0
YouTube Channel 2.4.0.2

What i have now:
5 groups in plugin, member testuserrq is subscriper to a site and a participant to a forum. He is inside group1 in plugin. I have some forums private and they are marked only for groups2-4. This user can’t see this forums when he is browsing forum, but if he will try direct-link he can see it and he can browse it further(for example by direct link to a forum and then to threads in this forum)
I tried different options in plugin, created new forums and changed groups, but still problem with direct link persists. If i will give user reader right in forum he cant see this themes anymore, only as participant. Changing his role to site does nothing(i can even turn it off).
I tried installing capability manager enhanced to look what capabilities this role have and i see it has read private forums – should it be this way? I guess it is how it goes by default.

Please, try to give me any direction where i can look at, because its crucial for my site(as i rely on forum much and forum access security is a subject of a main concern)

Sorry for so many text and this mess 🙁

Hi _ck_

Do you have an updated version of your plugin that works with the latest version of bbpress?

Here’s the only one I can find for download:
https://plugins-svn.bbpress.org/bbpress-theme-switcher/trunk/

Alternatively, how can I get this working without a plugin?

Thanks for all your work!

[Pilxy]

Hi,

I’m using latest WP version (4.0) and have bbPress 2.5.4-5380 installed.

I have a problem with the profile (Avatar and Username) on the replied posts.
Profile in the First post is allways fine, but profiles in all other posts below are not aligned properly and have some kind of border/background with an hover effect.

Here is the link to my test page forum: http://www.geosledec.si/wp/forums/topic/new-topic/

The problem must be theme related as it only exist if I’m using that theme. TwentyEleven works fine.

I tried asking for help in the theme support forum, but it seems no one can help me there, so I hope someone here has a better knowledge and could help me deal with that.

Thank you. 🙂

[Robin W]

@realerq

It could be a theme or 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.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

then come back

[wookey]

I managed to implement a custom function to search by $forum_id and it’s all working and great, and it was done using the instructions from this page.

What I need is a way to search by user. Here’s what the search by forum function looks like:

function my_bbp_filter_search_results( $r ){
	//Get the submitted forum ID (from the hidden field added in step 2)
	$forum_id = sanitize_title_for_query( $_GET['bbp_search_forum_id'] );
	//If the forum ID exits, filter the query
	if( $forum_id && is_numeric( $forum_id ) ){
		$r['meta_query'] = array(
			array(
				'key' => '_bbp_forum_id',
				'value' => $forum_id,
				'compare' => '=',
			)
		);
	}
	return $r;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_has_search_results_parse_args' , 'my_bbp_filter_search_results' );

I tried changing all instances of the word “forum” to the word “user”, but no dice. I tried doing searches like this:
http://mysite.com/search/?bbp_search=testword&bbp_search_user_id=123

But nothing I does works and I’ve spent many hours tearing my hair out trying to get it working. I would hugely appreciate any assistance making it happen.
Thanks

[atfpodcast]

probably , the guy does have a separate support forum just for premium plugin users

he might just be busy and more concentrated over there more since the plugin provides income for him

Why would some one pay for support on a non working plugin lol

i tested the plugin in the latest firefox and chrome , not IE though.

it could be a cache system/plugin or a minify plugin minifying the direct quotes plugins javascript wrong but im just guessing right now.

I dont have caching but with all plugins deactivated other then the ones needed for forums its not working

i would say contact as much people as you can to help solve the issue.

or just give up on having bbCode.

[Robin W]

Topic pages are not appearing. They appear as links on the indexes, and I can create new ones, however if I click them, I am taken to a page of a messed up template

so I suspect that the links are working fine, it’s just the template is conflicting, suspect theme issue

It could be a theme or 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.

I wonder if I said I wanted to go pro I bet he would reply

I manually did the quote and it put it in the lower area of the post.

you probably have to contact your theme author, on how to fix that.

it might be you have float:left; or clear:left; in the css and that might be causing the issue.
switching both to none should fix it.

I don’t see anything with this new plugin either… 🙁 Not even a quote either.

It’s working in IE not firefox. grrrrrrrrrrr I don’t know why it worked in raindrops when I installed it and now it wont and I cant find any plugins messing with it.

Hello, I am fairly new to WordPress.

I recently added bbPress to my site and tested out the forums.

I created a “testuser” so that I could post on the forums; however, after signing into “testuser”, I found out that the role “participant” can access the Dashboard of WordPress and through the Dashboard, the Theme Options and change it.

Not sure if this is supposed to happen or not but I would like to know if there is a way to restrict the “participant” from accessing Dashboard and other WordPress options.

Thanks

[akyboy]

link me to a post with a quote

ill check and see if it can be easily fixed

if not you probably have to find it out yourself or hire a person to fix it.

[Danpajosite]

Hello,

I have a strange thing going on on my site. When I want to leave a comment below a blog post it is not possible for me to click the WYSIWYG editor field. I cannot type any comment. Not as an Administrator or normal user.

After searching a lot I have noticed that the setting “Add a toolbar and buttons to text boxes to help in HTML format is causing this strange behaviour.

When I turn this setting off I can type a comment. When I turn it on again its not possible anymore to click the comment field.

How to solve this because the buttons are needed. With the seettings turned on I can only leave a commment after hitting F5 multiple times.

To see an example go to click here its a dutch article but that doesnt matter.

At this moment it is not possible to leave a comment. I have turned “Add a toolbar and buttons to text boxes to help in HTML format” on. You can use for login

login: testpiet
pass: test123

Let me know when you want me to turn the bbpress setting off.

Or how I can solve this.

Regards

Hello!

So there are about a dozen (dozen) topics about this, but here goes:

So:
WP 4.0
bbPress 2.5.4
a ton others (none that influences my users and their access)

I created the test forum, the test topic, the page with the ‘forums’ pretty permalink and the whole shebang.

I have a custom theme (cause I need it :D) and custom permalinks (with the needed .htaccess file).

The topic page appears without problem, but the forum page gives me a “Page Not Found”.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Ana
