Hello, I have installed bbpress and added a forum and topic.
WordPress and BBPress are both the latest version.

The forum shows in a really odd way with items stacked on top of each other.
http://imagphoto.com/forums/forum/new-forum/

Secondly, the breadcrumb link to the forum results in a 404 http://imagphoto.com/forums/forum/
Yet the parent link in the breadcrumb works http://imagphoto.com/forums/

Is it possible to use pages and the shortcodes to have the forum within a page so that I can control the settings of the page and maybe dump the sidebar to see if that corrects the issue? I checked the documentation but could not see anything about this specific issue.

Many thanks for your help 🙂

Hello,
I have Genesis Prose, and I guess I will have the latest version of the bbpress forum plugin. Here is my site, http://www.unclaimed-funds.org .

I would like to add a forum to the site, but I would like to get rid of the sidebar on the forum page.

Is this possible?

Thank you,

Mark

I’m not very experienced with bbPress. I am trying to make sure my forum works properly by creating a “test” user and trying to post from that account. When I submit the test post, it does not show up at all on the forum. Can anyone please help me with this?

Hello, is there any way for my forum members to click the topic and view it’s answer in a drop-down style below the topic/question itself(accordion style) ? I do not want the answer to show up on a different page. Either the answer slides down the question itself or shown in lightbox style upon click. Is this possible ?

I am asking this because my forum is not a discussion forum but Q an A forum where there is only 1 answer to the question asked by members.

Using latest wordpress and bbpress build
Kindly help.

I am having a problem with the latest version. My Forum content is not showing.
I am hoping for your kind response. Thanks.

I have set up a Multisite.
I added bbPress and NOT activated it on Network level
I added a sub site (network)
I activated bbPress ONLY for that sub site
I created two forums
I navigated as super admin to the network dashboard to the theme’s Appearance–>Menus section just to find that I cannot see any Forum bars from which I could add any Forum to the Custom navigation –

I know from a non Multisite installation, that I should be able add an existing forum from a “Forums”-bar, but that bar is NOT there.

I scanned Google for hours and this forum usually came up but no replies had anything to do with it or helped even when I tried.

I do not want to workaround the problem by creating “links” in the top menu. I would like to see all the tool-bars of bbPress in the menus section of appearance.

1. Latest WP (fresh)
2. Multisite
3. no disturbing plugins
4. Standard TwentyTwelve Theme

Thankful for any hints

Kunena3.php. Tried long time ago with Kunena2 too, but didnt work.
Updated Kunena forum to the last, just to test. WP is updated to the last.

Joomla is made locally with Akeeba but dont think it has something to do with problem.

If i only knew what makes problem. One or few Kunena topics deleted. Not big deal in forums, if you have hundreds and thousands of them. But as it is now all is black hole for me.

[Stephen Edgar]

Thanks heaps for this, I can see what you mean and I will go do some more testing and work on a patch for it.

Hey guys!
I have a little test site running for fun here.
As you can see, when you click on the forums page, bbPress is extremely light and does not fit in with the theme I am using.
Can I get any instructions on how to make bbPress sue the same style as my WordPress theme?
I am not extremely familiar with coding, so simple instructions would be the best!
Thanks!

[rsix08]

it looks like it fixed it, but i’ve added a few more replies and the counters have stayed the same
yes i’m using bbpress, buddy press, i have also installed buddypress achievements all latest versions

[Stagger Lee]

@ Stephen, thanks.
My apologies i didnt answer earlier. Had many projects and not much time. Customizing bbPress is something i try to learn for future projects, and one project it is not hurry for.

I will test converting today and write results.

I think it displays ok in the profile, is this the spot to check, the forums tab? pasted below

Just to give some more info about this from what I’ve experienced too:

I’m using WP 3.7.1 and bbPress 2.4.1. I’m using the Fresh News theme from WooThemes. I tested this with another account and a friend. Topics are not an issue for me; it’s only replies that are causing an issue. I have also tried disabling my other plugins to no avail.

1. If I reply using either account, I cannot see the reply on the account that I made the reply with, but I can see it with my other account immediately. My friend can also see my reply immediately from her account and when she’s logged out. The same happens when my friend makes a reply. She cannot see her own reply, but I can see it immediately on both of my accounts and when I’m logged out. Refreshing the page (multiple times) does not cause the reply to appear for the user that made the reply.

2. If a reply is made by a logged-in user and the user immediately logs out, suddenly, their reply becomes visible. If a logged-out user makes a reply then immediately logs in, suddenly their reply becomes visible.

Something interesting to note is that I run the same site on two different domains with the same host but different servers. Everything is exactly the same on both sites… I just use one to test things before I install/transfer it to the “real” site. On my test site, I do not have this issue at all. Same exact theme, plugins, settings, etc. Everything is exactly the same, yet I am only having this weird reply lag on my “real” site.

I have just commited the three versions of Kunena bbPress importer for bbPress 2.5

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/includes/admin/converters

Kunena1.php for Kunena v1.x Forums
Kunena2.php for Kunena v2.x Forums
Kunena3.php for Kunena v3.x Forums

If you could all give them some tests and let me know if it works or doesn’t work that would be great.

[Stephen Edgar]

Everything is still going fine, I ran some phpBB imports yesterday whilst implementing a few minor updates.

Details are here https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2467

Feel free to download the latest from here:

I removed the original default avatar from the heading but please see the links below. The site is still in test and I am doing some styling but you should be able to see from the following.

http://spotlightjustice.co.uk/forums/users/willowtop/ – just says About in the Heading
http://spotlightjustice.co.uk/forums/users/willowtop/topics/
http://spotlightjustice.co.uk/forums/users/willowtop/replies/
http://spotlightjustice.co.uk/forums/users/willowtop/favorites/ – just says About in the Heading unless I make a topic a favourite

Please note that the subscription page below can only be seen when you sign in but it is similar to the favourites page.

Hope this helps.

ok, when I get a mo, I’ll try it on my test site

[rsix08]

hi, here is a link
http://www.crossfit1066.com/forums/topic/testtes-2/

wondering if it is possible to display current post count under the author’s avatar

[salvador21]

I am having no luck importing from phpbb (latest version 3.0.12) The importer just seems to hang for hours and hours on “Starting Conversion”

At what point do I give up and start again. Should it take over four hours?

[KatieKat]

I am using the latest version of bbpress and on 3.5.2 of WP and not sure if this is a bug or not.

When viewing a user’s profile, the user’s username does not display next to the About tag heading when you are viewing the Profile itself and also when viewing topics, replies, subscriptions, favourites when the contents of those pages are empty.

It will only display “About KatieKat” on the forum/users page heading if there is something in topics, replies etc. Nothing shows at all when you get the front Profile page apart from the word About.

Is this a bug and if not is it possible to display the username even if there is nothing on that page in the About heading and especially on the front Profile page.

Kind Regards

KatieKat

Again, you can extend bbPress with custom views.

One of the sites in that link list has 4 views:

Most popular topics
Topics with no replies
Topics with most replies
Latest topics

That doesn’t mean they are part of bbPress, check your themes functions.php file for something like this:

function wphc_register_custom_views() {
	bbp_register_view( 'popular-topics', __( 'Popular Topics' ), array( 'meta_key' => '_bbp_reply_count', 'orderby' => 'meta_value_num' ), false );
	bbp_register_view( 'unpopular-topics', __( 'Unpopular Topics' ), array( 'meta_key' => '_bbp_reply_count', 'orderby' => 'meta_value_num', 'order' => 'asc' ), false );
	bbp_register_view( 'random-topic', __( 'Random Topic' ), array( 'orderby' => 'rand' ), false );
	bbp_register_view( 'closed', __( 'Recently Closed' ), array( 'post_status' => 'closed' ), false );
	

}
add_action( 'bbp_register_views', 'wphc_register_custom_views' );

Look at this: Google link

Hi have exactly this… where i found this? Links are stored in (bbPress) Topic Views List widget!!

[Stephen Edgar]

I did some pretty exhaustive testing of this a couple of days ago and was not able to reproduce this behaviour. Can you give us some more details with some direct links to your site highlighting the issue.

[FreeWPress]

Hi, i have two title pages with no translation:
forums/view/most-replies/ it show title page –> Topics with most replies
forums/view/latest-topics/ it show title page –> Latest topics

I nedd to translate but this two elements do not exist in original file bbpress.pot

Can you see if bbpress.pot contain this two elements or is true wich do not exist?

Thanks…
