I created a test account and created a topic, he can move the topic too :/
WPML make their own ‘bbPress WPM’ plugin, though it is not publicly available.
You need to ask them really nicely to get a copy 😉
If you are using the official ‘bbPress WPML’ plugin is it the latest version?
With all that said though any issues with the ‘bbPress WPML’ plugin need to raised with the WPML support team.
First issue I ran into is the example at the bottom of this page is no longer valid, but I did find the correct edits.
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – part 3
Second issue I am currently having is I am unable to find out how to change the “New topic” and “Reply To” backgrounds that show up at the bottom forums and topics.
Lastly(for now) is that I am unable to change the reply header despite having added this to my css.
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-header {
background-color: #111111;
}
My forums are located here: http://test.greatarchitect.us/forums/
Thanks for any help.
Also I would like to know if there is a way to show only the latest…
@fasttimes Do you have any custom phpBB custom mods installed that may change some things in the phpBB database? I just tested my phpBB imports and they all worked fine, no errors for ‘reply_to parents’. In fact phpBB does not have ‘threaded replies’ included by default thus the reason I ask.
@leonyipa, thanks for that but I’ve done it already. “in bbPress setting, the default role is “Participant” I meant I set the auto default role to be Participant.
So here are steps that I do:
– In stall, WP and Go to Dashboard-Setting-General – Set New User Default Role to “Subcriber”
– Install bbPress, go to Dashboard – Setting – Forums – Check the option for Auto Role and set it to “Participant”
– On front end- I create an account for test!
– In Dashboard – Users List: The Forum Role of the newly created user is “Participant” – The Site Role value is “Participant” which I expect should be “Subcriber”.
If I un-check/disable the Auto Role in bbPress setting, then when someone create an account the Site Role value of that user would be “none” and the value for Forum Role would still be “Participant” – I don’t know what wrong!
to do the second you need to put the following in your functions file:
//take away the role display
function hide_role ($args) {
$args['show_role'] = false ;
Return $args ;
}
add_filter ('bbp_before_get_reply_author_link_parse_args', 'hide_role') ;
this removes the existing text,
then you’d need to add some image depending on role, so something like
add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'add_image' );
function add_image () {
$role = bbp_get_user_display_role( bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id ) );
if ($role == 'keymaster') {
echo "<img src='/snippet_theme/img/error.gif' title='Error' alt='Error' />";
}
if ($role == 'participant') {
etc.
}
This is not tested – sorry but limited time !!
Using the most recent version, able to order topics by latest posted topic and not by latest topic activity
bbpress>includes>topics>template : (line)154
I didn’t remove it but commented it as I don’t know what to replace with the _bbp_last_active_time to achieve ordering by the latest posted topic.
probably a theme or plugin problem
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
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, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
I believe this is an issue for anyone since even non-logged-in users would be able to see this topic if they had the URL for it, which could be generated from a sitemap or something – yet to be confirmed.
just re-tested this, and no they get a 404 error or whatever page you send then to in the settings
@trymedo – ok try this version, it should determine if it is the resultant list being queried, or the process of getting to the list that is causing issues. Basically it does your suggested post__not_in.
private groups tom test
This is only for Tom, and is just a testing version
latest live version is here

I just changed it back to forums and I tested and it s working still. I appreciate the help.
I started a similar topic on wordpress.org – but I wasn’t sure where the best place would be (here I suppose!)
I’ve done some Googling here, and I’ve found a few topics that apparantly fix this, but…I’m not seeing the same info in my own site (the database info that theyre referring to isnt there..) I’m sure someone will point me to those older posts 😛
So I want to start with a fresh question – I want to start TOTALLY fresh with BBPRess, so I deleted the forums and whatnot and then uninstalled BBPress…later I reinstalled it but on the main dashboard I see this in one of the little info boxes on the right hand side: “Right now in Forums” and then it shows a few forums and topics, etc, that don’t exist…I want to remove those. Is there any way to do that?
I tried looking in the database through PHPMyAdmin and I don’t see anything named “bb_” to delete, so what’s the next step? :/
Thanks SO much in advance.
I’m using the latest version of WP and BBPress, btw and the twenty fourteen theme, if any of that helps.
I downloaded and activated bbp tweaks. Went into the widgets section and dragged items into the side bar and added the requested URLs where needed but the side bar isn’t showing up. I went under bbp tweaks and changed the wrap around to all of the available files by switching and saving and then testing the forum but nothing shows up. The plug in is still currently active.
I am following your advice and reactivating the plugins one by one and testing the forum after each one
I added a test topic and it shows up but the main link for the forum won’t allow me to view it. Thanks again for the help
Ok, you are certainly not stupid, and we’ll work you through to a resolution 🙂
ok we have 4 elements in bbpress
1. A forum that is a type called category – this contains other forums
2. A forum that is a type called forum – this will contains topics and replies
These forum types are set in dashboard>forums and on the top right hand side
3. a topic – this will belong to a forum
4. a reply – this will belong to a topic
Can you confirm that you’ve set up a topic in any of the forums.
If not go into Dashboard>topics>new topic and create a test topic.
If your forums are all just forums, then without topics, they have nothing to list.
If you think you have created a topic go into dashboard>topics and see if you can see topics in there, and which forums they belong to
Ok, thanks and yes we can fix that.
1. the code is missing ‘);’ by mistake, it should read
function mycustom_breadcrumb_options() {
// Home - default = true
$args['include_home'] = false;
// Forum root - default = true
$args['include_root'] = false;
// Current - default = true
$args['include_current'] = true;
return $args;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_get_breadcrumb_parse_args', 'mycustom_breadcrumb_options');
The extra ‘);’ is right at the end
I’ve fixed the documentation
2. as stated in https://codex.bbpress.org/functions-files-and-child-themes-explained/
you should not be adding code to the end of a main theme’s functions, but should be creating child theme. By all means leave it there and test that it works, but then create a child theme and move it there or you risk losing the change on an update. I’ll try and make this even clearer in the documentation – it is a first version !
Hope that helps you, and please come back with any further issues ! 🙂
Hello all – I know that the issue of user capabilities has been covered before but I’m stuck
First off:
http://www.manvfat.com/talk
WordPress 3.9.1 running BuddyBoss 3.2.0 theme.
BBPress 2.5.4
GD BBpress Toolbox 3.1.3
I have used GD BBpress Toolbox to allow the “Add Media” button to show up for all logged in users. Fine.
However, the Participant role cannot actually upload an image – it tries to upload gets nearly to the end and then throws an error message:
“An error occured in the upload. Please try again later.”
After experimentation (I changed one test user to Moderator from Participant – and this allowed the image to be uploaded) it appears to be down to the fact that Participants do not have the capability to upload media.
Using this plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/capsman/ I am able to assign that capability to Participants but it still fails. My *guess* is that this is because the capability is not actually being saved, but I don’t know why or how to change it.
Does anyone know how I can allow the Participant role to upload files – and thus be able to add images inline?
Many thanks in advance for your help!
Try testing with the Twenty Fourteen theme, to confirm if it is a theme issue or not.
Try running all the following tools (one by one of course):
Recalculate the parent topic for each post
Recalculate the parent forum for each post
Recalculate private and hidden forums
Recalculate last activity in each topic and forum
Recalculate the sticky relationship of each topic
Recalculate the position of each reply
Count topics in each forum
Count replies in each forum
Count replies in each topic
Count voices in each topic
Count spammed & trashed replies in each topic
Count topics for each user
Count replies for each user
That said the topic ID you link to is 9313 and it’s forum ID is 9299 so typically by post ID order the topic is newer than the forum.
What happens if you move the topic to the correct forum?
Maybe try create a few test topics and replies in a test forum to see if you can determine exactly what is going on as from what I can see looking at the HTML source everything looks fine though you say it is not 😉
Hey Robin,
I just did test the new version, and as far as I can tell, everything is working fine now. I did subscribe to various forums in different categories, and only those, which I did subscribe to, are visible in the buddypress profile. I also did set up a few private groups and made some forums private, which is also working like intended!
Let me thank you for the work you did put into it. Your plugin is awesome, and I think many people will use it! A feature like this is needed by many projects.
Again – Thanks to everyone who helped me, and a special thanks to Robin!
@lumartist
Ok I have fixed this issue – can you download version 1.9 from
bbp Private Groups
and test it to ensure it also works for you.
if so, I’ll load it to wordpress plugins for general release
WP 3.9.1
bbPress 2.5.4-5380
Suffusion Theme 4.4.7
Child Theme

Hello, I used the Recent Replies one until it broke my site—a long story, details if requested.
Then I discovered that the Recent Topics plug-in can be used three ways with config options in the drop-down widget menu:
Hottest Topics=Topics with Recent Replies
Latest Topics=Newest Topics
Popular Topics=Popular Topics (most visited? most discussed?)
My only concern is that “Hottest Topics” lists brand-new topics with NO replies. Is there a way I can fix this?
By the way, I have lots of private [unpublished] topics in progress, and they do not list in the sidebar.
Many thanks for your help, Anna
