Hi – the 1000 posts thing is a known issue which will be fixed in 2.6.

In the meantime do these two steps in order (but test them first! always test first):
1. change this code: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2615
2. run the “Recalculate the position of each reply” tool in Tools -> Forums

Again, test it all first before doing it to your live site.

Are you using bbPress 2.5.4? Prior to that, sending subscriptions was slowing things down, too.

Herewith the link to the (test) website:
http://test.chez-philipaud.nl

In the menu choose for forum and you get the forum as it should be. This one is with the permalink.
If you choose forum1 you get the output when using the shortcode.

I hope that it helps to solve the problem.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/shortcode-on-the-page-php
I added [bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id] page post_type, how to make that outputs only 5 replies.
I added this code here:

function bbp_single_topic_query() {
		if(is_singular( 'download' )) {
		if ( bbp_has_topics( array( 'author' => 0, 'show_stickies' => false, 'order' => 'DESC', 'post_parent' => 'any', 'posts_per_page' => 5 ) ) )
                bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'latest-topics' );   
      }
return;
	  }
add_action('bbp_template_before_topics_loop','bbp_single_topic_query');

it does not work for me. I maybe doing wrong?

Here is the picture of my forum structure:

That is the my Main page for forum. From this page I need to disable topic posting ability, so users cannot create any posts like above the posting box: Test, Test 2, Test 3 and so on…

So, the only thing there should be left are all the main topics which I created (the most upper ones). Then, when you go to one of those predefined topics, there whoever (participant …) user would be, he can create own topics within this main topic. So, topic posting would be working everywhere, BUT Main forum page.

I hope this will clarify more 🙂

Hi all!

I have found that bbPress is causing the buddypress bar not to show for regular users. It only shows up for my admin account when viewing the front-end of the site. You can test this by signing up for an account at http://www.raidenrattlehead.co.za and checking if the bar shows up for you.

Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Kind Regards

ok, all I can suggest is a conflict with another plugin or your theme

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.

I have a developer that has been trying the same code on his test site without it removing the reply/topic counts either.

[Robin W]

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Come back with the results

[Barryman91]

Deactivating bbPress does fix the problem, though it could be a conflict between other plugins. I will try to debug them one at a time on a test server, thank you very much for the help so far!

[kendorama]

i’ve put it in multiple function.phps and still have an issue.

Are you sure it’s just a bbpress issue?

The ‘lastest’ bbpress is quite old now, so if it was an issue, I’m sure it would have been flagged by now.

presume you have

[Barryman91]

Apparently bbPress is blocking public viewers from reading custom post types and I can’t find the settings to edit the public capabilities. I noticed when activating the Plugin it hides/removes the spectator/blocked role and I can only edit capabilities on logged in user roles.

To give an example of the problem: get_field returns empty on a custom post type when someone is not logged in.

I’m wondering if it has anything to do with the latest update of bbPRess or BuddyPress?

Hey guys,

Thanks for getting back to me.
Jessy, the code you provided did not accomplish it… here is the link to the page if y’all want to check out the source code.

you may need to rule out other factors, as far as I know bbpress works with woocommerce eg

bbPress WooCommerce Integration: Tutorial on How to setup a Paid Forum on WordPress

bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Deactivate all but bbpress and woocommerce and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Im using the latest bbspress with wordpress 4.0 with paid membership pro. When I post a topic I can see it and any one else that post. When a user goes to a topic they can’t see what I posted but what they posted. This is going on two sites. Could this be a bug? Even some one who is not logged in can’t see my post but they can see others.

you have the buddypress register form , so if you have any issues with that go to buddypress support

https://buddypress.org/support/

when i looked at it on IE 11 it seems fine also tried the latest version of firefox, havent tried safari though , but safari and chrome both run on the same engines so i assume it would work.

[Sam Rohn]

these anti-spammer and security plugins look interesting too, but i have not tested them myself, they should work fine with bbpress but always test carefully for possible confilicts with other plugins you are using, especially plugins that have similar functionality

https://wordpress.org/plugins/avh-first-defense-against-spam/

and wordpress security is a bigger topic than just dealing with spammers, but sorting out the specifics is up to you 🙂

Shoot.

The problem is, I think, that current_user_can( ‘bbp_forums_admin’ ) and the topics / replies equivalents are returning false for your admins / keymasters in bbpress/bbpress.php register_post_type() starting on 473 (you want ‘show_ui’ => true when registering the post types). Oddly (?) I can’t find the bbp_forums_admin etc capabilities anywhere.

I am just checking here but you don’t have a cache or anything like that enabled, do you?

I’m just about to go to bed but will test a couple of work-arounds tomorrow sometime.

[Robin W]

If I have understood you correctly you want to change the reply form you’ll be looking at

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-reply.php which sets up the forum and on line 57 calls

bbp_the_content

this function is in

wp-content/plugins/bbpress\includes\common\template.php

line 1706

you’d probably want to write a filter fro that function

if you’re familiar with wordpress args parsing, bbpress does it in the same way

apply_filter (‘xx’ , ‘bbp_before_get_the_content_parse_args’)

and then write a function xx that adds you initial text to $args[‘before’] should do it

Don’t; have time to write and test it at the mo, but come back if you need further help

I guess this is where I need to be… the PunBB misfits…

Hello,

I am pleased to be here. I am the owner of about 16 WP web sites, that support three different businesses. One of the businesses is a network for singers, that I am preparing to refurbish into a proper membership / paid access service. Here is the link:

http://www.TheModernVocalistWorld.com

In this large network for singers, there currently is a very successful message board / forum that is hosted with PunBB. Here is the link:

http://www.TheModernVocalistForum.com

This is my hottest asset and the first to become monetized. I have learned that PunBB migrates successfully to bbpress. Can you please confirm this is still the case?

If, can you help me with the following questions:

– What are the best links or information I can pass onto my WP consultant to make this migration from PunBB to bbpress successful? Any additional tips or things to look out for?

– What plug-ins would you then recommend to make the the forum and other pieces of content on my network paid access? I was considering S2Membership… is that recommended or do you have other solutions?

– My other option is to possibly migrate everything over to the new cool, http://www.newrainmaker.com platform. The affiliate program, one point of registration, alleged claim to be less IT hassles, and other features seem very appealing! Do you bbpress experts agree that a migration to http://www.newrainmaker.com is a good idea? Any concerns or things to know before doing so?

– Is there a difference between migrating my PunBB forum to bbpress if I use it in an existing WP site or if I were to continue my migration to http://www.newrainmaker.com? (FYI… the rain maker guys advised that I move PunBB to bbpress).

– Does anyone here at bbpress specialize or have experience in this migration from PunBB to bbpress and if so, what would your fee be?
