Just upgraded to the latest and can’t embed media … just results in URLs that are linked. Is this a problem?

Hello again,

I’m new to Buddy Press and trying to experiment with a personal site using WordPress 3.5.1 with I the latest version of my theme, DynamiX, which is supposedly BBPress Friendly.

http://thebrotherhoodguild.com

I am trying to create different groups and it looks as though I have but I cannot seem to actually -go into them. When I click on a particular group it just stays on the current group listing page. From the sites I have seen it should take me into that forum and display all the specific posts for that group. I have made sure that each of the groups have content but I cannot seem to successfully link there.

Suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I’m new to Buddy Press and trying to experiment with a personal site using WordPress 3.5.1

http://thebrotherhoodguild.com

On Chrome Version 26.0.1410.64 m the Register page will not load (Link). Instead, it keeps going back to the root directory. However, on Firefox 18.0.2 it does load. Not sure why this would happen. I am using the latest version of my theme, DynamiX, which is supposedly BBPress Friendly.

I do have a few plugins installed but I have tried deactivating them and still get this issue.

Hi everyone, I searched to see if anyone else had this problem and didn’t find anything that matched exactly, so if the topic DOES exist and I missed it, I do apologize.

I have a site where I installed bbpress back in August of last year. Everything was working fine but the company was not utilizing the forums so they basically sat there un-noticed/unused.

The company has now decided that they are going make a push to their employees to start using them. When I went to look at them today, I noticed that while all of the forums are still there, the topics are gone. At first, when I went into the Admin Dashboard, under the forums, there were counts listed under the “Topics” column but when I went to topics, nothing was there.

I then went and reset the permalinks and still nothing. Ran the forum cleanup tool and then when I went back, the “Topics” column under forums shows all zeros.

There was not a ton of content there and I can re-enter it all, but the concern I have is that of where did they go? I know the client will be asking this and then the obvious follow-up of “will this happen again?”

Any help anyone can give me would be great. Naturally, I would prefer to recover the info if at all possible.

Running the latest version of bbpress (2.3.1).

Thanks,

-marc

Hello, My name is Robin and i run a WordPress website with bbpress.
I have installed a new theme i found on the internet and now when someone posts a Topic it works fine, but when someone wants to reply on the topic the anwser isnt shown.

Hello and thank you for the first time that you are helping me and for your Antwort.Ich want to install bbPress 1.2, because I want to test it as a stand-alone forum software. I have problems with the bbPress WordPress plugin and so I wanted to try the forum installation.

[Jared Atchison]

What plugins do you have installed?

A good test to run is to temporarily activate TwentyTwelve (theme) and see if that fixes the issue. Doing this will at least let you know if the problem lies within your theme or not.

I am very new to bbpress and am working on editing a new to me website. When I updated to the latest version of BBpress the link to add topics(forums) on the left menu area on the dashboard dissapeared…I checked support forums and “saved” the permalinks and deactivated and reactivated BBpress, but still no luck. Any suggestions? Please keep the explanation simple. I am running a customized genesis site.

I’m using the latest WP and bbPress 2.3.1.

bbPress seems like it will work for our veterinary organization’s site. The only thing missing is the ability to add a group of users to a forum… We’re using s2Member. For most forums, we have them restricted based on s2Member level and this is working fine. But for a couple of forums, we need to restrict them based on a smaller group of members, not an entire s2Member level.

For example, we have a Board of Directors s2Member level, and a bbPress forum for this. But in the forum, we only want to include a subset of the BOD members, not *all* of them.

Is there a way to add individual users to a forum, or to create a group that’s not all-inclusive of an entire role?

Hello

I’m trying to modify the latest topics widget with CSS. I want to show the widget like the IMAGE 1, but with my poor knowledge of CSS i can obtain only the IMAGE 2.

I’m using the following:

float: left;
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
}

What can I add to show my widget similar to IMAGE 1? Only the image and text, not the comments and likes icon.

Thanks

Are you able to make a backup of your modifications and then test a fresh install just to ensure it’s not something with your modified version?

[Nashwan D]

Good version, but it break some tiny things in posting unfiltered HTML and codes snippets, I wish to see bbPress 2.3.2 soon 🙂

I wonder why you didn’t give us some time to test Changeset 4867 ?!

[Kaenim]

Edit – Sorry, the latter error was because I missed part of my functions.php code to comment out. Editing accordingly.

I’ve been using the following code, originally found in my functions.php to change “Key Master” to “Administrator”:`function my_custom_roles( $role, $user_id, $user_role ) {
if( $role == ‘Key Master’ )
return ‘Administrator’;

return $role;
}

add_filter( ‘bbp_get_user_display_role’, ‘my_custom_roles’, 10, 3 );`

Which returns the error: “Warning: Missing argument 3 for my_custom_roles() in /home/kaenim/public_html/test/wp-content/themes/bsky/functions.php on line 216” above my avatar.

Does anyone know what this “argument 3” is, or how I could modify this code to work in 2.3.1? I’d ask in the original discussion, but it’s several months old and to be honest, I’m simply not aware of what bbPress’ forum policy is regarding reviving old topics; I figured making a new topic would be best.

[SuushiPlugins]

I’m having the same problem. I just installed the latest forum, but now it gives me permission errors.

[Tbermudas]

I have installed the update in my tester site and I have lost the visual editor, also the “Ckeditor for wordpress plugin” seems to be not compatible.

WordPress Version: 3.5
BBpress Version: 2.3

I know this question has been asked alot on how to embed video and add youtube videos, I know how to do this by simply posting the link in the topic…. and it will automatically insert the youtube video…

But my problem is i want to have a few video tutorials that i want to insert and the mp3 or mp4 files are located on my server, i dont want to upload them to youtube…

so i was wondering if their was a way to use my own videos, i have already tried inserting the link that points to my server http://mysite.com/video.mp3 and it will not work that way..

So i tried creating a topic from the admin and use the insert media and it did not work that way , then i tried using a plugin to allow jw player shortcode and it did not work that way either… this is one of the plugins i tried using http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress2-shortcode-whitelist/ with no sucess…

Then i tried adding this code to my functions.php

add_filter(‘bbp_reply_content’, ‘jwplayer_tag_callback’);
add_filter(‘entry_content’, ‘jwplayer_tag_callback’);
add_filter(‘bbp-reply-content’, ‘jwplayer_tag_callback’);
add_filter(‘entry-content’, ‘jwplayer_tag_callback’);

this method did not work, it seems almost impossible to add my own video from my server, most the topics are super old 3 to 4 yrs old which really doesnt apply to the latest version of bbpress since so much of the code has changed, if someone could help me out or point me in the right direction i would appreciate it…

I am not trying to let my users be able to use shortcodes as i read they are a security risk and i am not trying to let my users be able to upload or use their own videos from a strange server..

I just want to be able to use my own videos instead of using youtube.

I recently installed bbpress on my site (great plug-in, by the way). I’m currently working out the kinks.

One of my biggest problems is that the search function doesn’t work. See http://www.churchofficehelpdesk.com/test where I’m using the shortcode. I’ve used words that I know are on the site. Not only do they not show up, but “sorry, no results were found appears multiple times on the results page.”

Thanks for any help!

[JeffreySummers]

Just nstalled plugin and activated but when I click on “settings” it takes me here http://shgww.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress which is a blank white page…???

I’m having the same issue when trying to register an account.

http://churchofficehelpdesk.com/test/

[Thrifty T]

I am new to bbPress. I’ve installed everything and need help with styling.

I have created forum categories as well as forums. http://churchofficehelpdesk.com/test/

Currently the forums under the categories all clump together on one line. I’d like to add each forum to a separate line with a description underneath. (Similar to this – http://d.pr/i/EeZu)

Any help would be appreciated.

When i have bbPress 2.3 enabled i get this error in my feeds:
Warning: Illegal offset type in /home/XXXXX/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/functions.php on line 1503

I am using WP 3.5.2 and have tested without any plugins enabled, as soon as i enable bbPress 2.3 the error appears.

My site is at http://www.arctic-websolutions.com

Is it possible that because i use an array to call several posttypes for my feeds this conflicts with bbPress 2.3, any idea?

Thanks

I’m trying to get current forum id in header.php file of my theme with function bbp_get_forum_id(), but it always returns empty result.

What am I doing wrong?

P.S. I’m using bbPress 2.3 plugin installed on latest version of WordPress.

[Rachel Biel]

I need help making a couple of changes in how my forum looks.  I’m using a Parallelus theme (Salutation) and they have not updated their theme yet to the latest buddy/bbPress changes.  I asked for help on their forum (as to the styling) and they said that the theme just uses the basic bbPress layout.  I’m using bbPress 2.3, Buddypress 1.7.

Here is how the forum is laid out: http://www.tafaforum.com/user-groups/dyes/

I want the title of the discussion to basically change places and size with the text underneath it describing the topic and where the forum is.  I can barely see what the forum name is and if we have an avatar, we sure don’t need a big name in bold.

I would assume that the same changes would affect the Activity Streams: http://www.tafaforum.com/activity-streams/

Here’s the catch: please spell it out for someone who can’t code.  I wish there were a plugin that I could use or shortcode…  Is this something that I will have to change everytime there is an update with the theme?

Well, hopefully someone can point me to a permanent solution as this one is far from useful.  Thanks!
