Here are some pictures to better explain what is happening;
*Sorry everything looks so bad, had child theme disabled while testing.*

Viewing a topic as a user with administrator via wordpress – works as intended.

Viewing a topic as a user marked as subscriber via wordpress and keymaster via bbpress. – topic content does not show.

Again, thank-you so much!

I checked the user capabilities using the plugin you linked. The user has read_private_replies.

I also did some further testing and it seems that only users marked as administrator in wordpress can view private topic content. Users marked as Keymaster are unable to view private topic content.

Ok, so in messing around with everything… it seems like the forum is making the first “forum” transparent, then the next with a white background. The next is transparent, the next white. Similar to how a forum treats posts where the first is white, the reply is grey, the next reply is white, etc to not confuse someone into thinking it’s all one post.

How do I make the forum treat each “forum” (sub) the same? Is this all theme related?

The theme I am using is called Explicit… and the url to my forum is here (test site):

http://www.betatestarena.com/forums/

The first forum was BurnZone and it was having a plugin error that wasn’t communicating with their website. Apparently to register there, and it is supposed to communicate with your site/page to display certain content. Not at all convenient. I’d much prefer everything be working directly on my site and all settings edited there.

I have created a new bbpress forum on my site. If I click on the link through the top menu I get this:

If I click on the announcements section/forum/category… I get this:

I want the index to show up the same as the in forum view. But it seems to be not wanting to work right. I’m also unable to override the background image for that page for some reason.

Any help would be appreciated. I’m at a point now where I’m about to install a different forum and just use it on a sub-domain with no integration with WordPress. This is the second forum I’ve gone through and it’s annoying that there isn’t some simplicity here.

the front page layout is achieved by ‘topics’ to the url eg

www/mysite.com/topics

add this url to your menu (links), and you have a latest topics page

and the display is the content, not in a sidebar as a widget.

Not sure if you wanted it in a sidebar that would be very populated.

Hi i’m using the Recent Topic Widget but im looking for the exact layout as the bbpress.org Recent Topics on the frontpage. I only get Newest Topic which shows only Topic name – Author and Freshness
But i like to see: Recent Topic Name – Author – Latest Reply and by Poster name

Is there a way I can accomplish this?

Greetings

Hello,

I’m using bbpress 2.5.3 with a WordPress twenty-twelve child theme. I’m also using bbpress WP tweaks (1.3.1). I’m trying to incorporate the bbpress forums into our theme, and it works fine on the first level with a custom sidebar (I haven’t really styled anything yet — trying to get the basic functionality first):
http://innovativeapprenticeship.org/community/

but at the forum level I’m not getting the right content — no breadcrumb trail; no topic list:
http://innovativeapprenticeship.org/community/forum/test-1/

I put a few echo (‘here’) statements into single-forum.php template I adapted for the child theme and can see that it’s being called. But content-single-forum.php, which is called from single-forum.php if there is content, and which would have the breadcrumb trail and the topic list among other things, is not being called. I tried some echo statements in there and nada. It’s not being called from my child theme or from the bbpress template folder.

Actually, I can see that bbpress has created another navigation level, forum, that doesn’t really exist. Forum is really the first level (our “Community” page). Does this have something to do with the problem?

Has anyone encountered something like this, and do you have any idea why this is happening?

cheers, Cheryl

Chill, we’ll hopefully work it out.

you might (should) want to create a test site. Whilst that may seem daunting, it is quite easy to do, and once done a great way to test stuff without risking the live site.

see

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

Couple of questons when you are ready

1. The page you are linking to – this is just a members page, not a link to the forum pages?
2. What is your forum slug called (go into dashboard>settings>forums and look for forum slug.

Hi, I’ve tried this but while it sets the page correctly here: http://ace2five.tv/forums/ and on most other pages, if you click through into a forum: http://ace2five.tv/forums/forum/bbpress-theme/ or here: http://ace2five.tv/forums/topic/topic-bbpress/ it fails to display correctly. This appears to be a header issue. I have asked on the theme thread but had no advice as yet.

Theme is True Mag installed this week, bbPress installed latest version yesterday. Any help much appreciated.

[mcleandesign]

Boy do I feel like a fish out of water here…sheesh. I’ve been designing for 30+ years and just now moving into this new medium, it’s challenging me for sure. I’m pretty insecure about messing with the code on my own, but have some folks I can draw in to help me with this. But before I do any of that I’ll just throw a few more thoughts into the ring just to clarify. First, yes, this is a paid theme from themeforest as well as the pro version of S2, which is what my suspect is causing the conflict (due to other things I’ve read online. I’ve sent a query to S2 to see what their thoughts are as well).

I guess what I’m unsure about in your reply above is about the page templates. The only thing I’ve done is install bbPress, click the activate button, and then the sidebar widget disappears. To test this isn’t template related I created a new page, not based on any theme, just added a full width panel and my set the page to show my left sidebar with custom widget.

I previewed the page, which looked accurate, then activated the bbPress plug in and as suspected, the left sidebar widget disappeared. The theme still show the left sidebar space, but no widget is present.

So, here I am scratching my head… feeling like a dummy. My first thought is, get another cup of coffee. Second thought is hire you to fix it for me <grin>. #2 sounds like it has much better success. Although, it doesn’t teach me how to overcome my challenge, so, I guess in the long run that is self defeating.

Ideally, I’d like the forum to function within the space to the right of our sidebar, but haven’t even begun to think about how to even set up the forum yet, still trying to figure out why it’s messing up what I’ve already created.

While you’re reading this (and probably laughing at my inexperience…which is OK, I laugh at myself all the time) I’ll see if I can decipher the step-by-step instructions. And, truly, if you want to jump in and do some private consultation I’d be happy to give you my phone number and we can talk personally. Don’t know if that breaks rules or what..but just thought I’d throw it on the table.

Thanks for your help Robin.. I appreciate it more than you know…truly. Also, I’m going to be out of the office most of the day, so we may have to continue this conversation on Monday.

Short question: How do I check if I’m on a page (or blog) from within ‘loop-single-reply.php’?

WP 3.8.3
bbpress 2.5.3
URL: 24baby.nl

Long question: I use bbpress for all my comments on articles and blogs: ‘Use a bbPress forum topic for comments on this post.’

On my website this generates a first post along the lines of (my website is in Dutch): ‘This topic belongs to article <LINK>. Share your thoughts!’

This text is visible both under the actual article and on the forums. While it’s a good way to explain the purpose of the thread on the forums, it’s confusing as the first reply on the actual article page. Because of that I don’t want to show this first reply on all my blog / page ‘pages’, but do want to show them on the forums.

It’s fairly easy to remove the first reply within ‘loop-replies.php’, but I don’t know how to test whether I’m on the forums or not? Is_page doesn’t work, is_bbpress always returns true.

[ace2five]

Hi, I have tried everything I can find on the forum and elsewhere to fix this with no luck. Probably an easy fix but I’m new to this.

This is great: http://ace2five.tv/forums/ and most other pages display ok but,
click through into a forum: http://ace2five.tv/forums/forum/bbpress-theme/ or here: http://ace2five.tv/forums/topic/topic-bbpress/ and it fails to display correctly.

Theme is True Mag installed this week, bbPress installed latest version yesterday. Any help much appreciated.

[Robin W]

can you post a link?

I’d try switching themes to test if it is a theme issue

Themes

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

[mlocke90]

These are the steps I took on my local test area to recreate the problem;

– latest version of both WP and BBpress
– both are fresh installs
– using twentyfourteen theme
– no child themes

1. Create a public category
2. Create a public forum
3. Make a topic on participant user
4. Mark the topic as private on keymaster account – via wordpress visibility
5. Try to read topic on keymaster account. It will show up in the topic loop, but when you click on the specific topic to read it the topic content will not show.
6. Try and read the topic on the participant (author) account and everything shows fine.

Hey guys,

I have made a test of bbPress on my page here:

http://gamehub.dk/forum/

However, as you can see, there is a “read more” (Læs mere in danish) in the bottom of the page, and I have no clue how to remove this? Anyone who can help?

[Pasquale Galasso]

OK

Edit: test eliminated (this is not good)

[Stephen Edgar]

I just added the tag ‘test’ again, can you reply and delete the ‘test’ tag?

[Pasquale Galasso]

I did ping to my site.

before writing in reply [bbPress Trac] # 2421 I do still other test…

[Pasquale Galasso]

Dear Step, I’m seeing is different. On this site bbpress.org I delete tags of the topic where I’m responding to. Before there was the “test” tag and I try to have deleted.

[Stephen Edgar]

(Rather than bumping very old topics I split this into a new topic)

https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/

Participants can ‘assign_topic_tags’

Keymasters and Moderators can ‘manage_topic_tags’, ‘edit_topic_tags’, ‘delete_topic_tags’ & ‘assign_topic_tags’.

Are you seeing something different? What user role are you using to test this?

[Stephen Edgar]

Yes 🙂

You can download and install the e107 v1 importer from #2421.

Any testing and feedback you can provide would be very helpful.

[Pasquale Galasso]

Now in this topic no longer exists the tag “test” before there was.

🙁

[Pasquale Galasso]

People deleting/removing tags from threads? Yesh in my forum.

I created a normal forum account, with this account you can delete tags in the topic, he can also delete tags entered by an administrator. Where can I go to fix?

Now I try to delete test tag (which is below in this form). If I can do it, I could do it in all forums.

Hi

WP 3.9
BBP 2.5.3
TwentyTen

I use WPPA a lot on my blog and would like to integrate in BBPress.

When I add it in topic i get this:

http://goandstay.co.za/blog/forums/topic/testtopic-2/#.U15rdfmSySo

The code instead of the slideshow.

Jacob Breedtveld . aka Opajaap (author of this amazing plugin) (http://wppa.opajaap.nl/ & https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-photo-album-plus/) says:

If this also does not work, ask the BBPress boys if there is a possiility that on the particular text shortcodes can be expanded ( $text = do_shortcode( $text ); ) or that the standard content filters can be run. ( $text = apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $text ); )

I don’t have a clue what Jacob says, but think you will know!

Thanks

[Robin W]

I have no idea of this plugin works if you are using buddypress (it does with bbpress) but might be worth a quick test – let us know either way !
