Hmm, I haven’t tested this so I can’t say, but it definitely sounds like an issue. Maybe someone else can chime in and try to duplicate it.

This is probably happening because the default WordPress search isn’t looking at information bbPress stores when it makes things as private. WordPress just grabs results from all post types that are supported, makes sure they are published, and runs with it.

This doesn’t help your current situation, but I just wanted to say the search is something we are trying to address in 2.3.

Having bbPress search results come up in the regular WordPress search is weird, and leads to problem such as this, which is why bbPress topics/replies are not searchable by default. To skirt around this problem, we are likely going to make a bbPress specific search with its own search results page. This will give us more control over how the results are returned and make sure stuff that should be hidden doesn’t show up.

No more Ultimate TinyMCE buttons in fancy editor after latest 2.2 update.

[remike]

Can someone please help me out?

The quoting function leaves me out with a huge margin before the quote! I first noticed it today and I have no idea what caused it!

I added a fancy editor a couple days age pasting a code from topic.
I also messed around with plugins GD bbPress Tools and bbPress2 BBCode trying to find the best solution for quoting.

Somehow I have now a huge margin, I can’t edit it in css – don’t know what to do!

It looks like this http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1030/quoteproblem.png

Please, I will appreciate any suggestions

[Starejosel]

Note–it is not just Ultimate that is broken–the kitchen sink buttons also no longer work.
In addition, text pasted in from Word now has all kinds of bizarre formatting preserved.
It makes the editor pretty useless. Is there an alternative out there?

Sorry where does this code go?

wp-content/themes/mytheme/functions.php?

[MacItaly]

Thanks Stephen,
I’ll be glad to try your solution, also because I tried the plugin of that post and it works only partially, it imported few posts, assigning them only to admin user and other stuffs, so in my experience quite useless as is.
If you need a tester, please feel free to send your version and instruction for use to macitaly at gmail dot com.
Thanks in advance

[toemon]

Thank you for the great plug-in.
Sorry poor English, I’m Japanese.

I am creating the Japanese language file for bbpress 2.2.
However, the menu of bbPress in an Admin page is not translated.

In the debugger’s test：
register_post_types() will be called before the load_textdomain().
Therefore, register_post_types() can’t translate $post_type[‘labels’] definitely.

Thanks toemon.

[Stephen Edgar]

I was doing the odd tweak and bug fix with the ‘other’ importers for bbPress and whilst at it I decided to have a go at Simple Press 5.1.4, I’ll upload it tomorrow (just need to test a couple more bits first) and if you could give it some testing that would be greatly appreciated.

[Stephen Edgar]

I cannot reproduce this, what versions of bbPress & WordPress are you using?

What are the permalinks?
– ‘TEST’ /forum/test/
– ‘FORUM’ /forum/test/forum/

[royho]

I am seeing this strange behavior where if category description is entered, all sub-forums under that parent category will disappear and even clicking into the category does not reveal them.

Steps to produce:

1. Create category TEST
2. Create forum FORUM and select TEST as category
3. Edit TEST category and enter some description/update

And to add to that, even if I go back to delete the description, it doesn’t work.

Anyone seeing this?

EDIT: Updated title to include ‘private’ context (@Netweb)

Hello, can anyone tell me which file/s create this page: First page of bbPress Forums
and this page: Second page of bbPress Forums, a category page of forums?

I want to create a page that looks like the second page, but has all categories on it and I think I can figure it out if someone points me to which files I could copy functions out of.

I saw an old thread of people looking to set their bbPress forums up like phpBB3, has it been done? ‘Cause that’s what I’m looking to accomplish here and I’m willing to share the template once I get done.

[maineyak]

Ok I submitted a ticket. I rolled back to the last version and everything is fine, so it was the latest update.

[maineyak]

I had everything set up fine, Until this last update. When a member creates a new blog when bbPress is activated, they are only granted participant status to their blog, so they cannot even access their dashboard. I deactivated all plugins to make sure in fact it was bbPress that was causing this, and it is. When I deactivate bbPress, they can access their dashboard, and are granted Administrator status. I just happened to be testing new accounts today, and realized this was happening. I did just update bbPress to the latest, so I’m assuming it was due to this latest update, as it was working fine before.

What can I do to fix this?

[HistoryHouse]

If someone could just guide me please (I’m returning to bbPress after a confused time with it pre-plugin days).

Plug-in installed OK and it was easy (thanks!). The forum is using my blog page layout which has a widget controlling the right sidebar (my own theme design adapted from blankslate).
http://www.historyhouse.co.uk/historynews/

The test page works fine (apart from it’s too wide – but I can solve that.)

Problem is I want it to have its own unique page template (not using the sidebar widget). Probably something like this template I created.
http://www.historyhouse.co.uk/historynews/history-of-ashen-my-ancestors

In my stumbling I thought a child theme may have been the answer so I looked the below page but the bbpress version number is not the same. Besides it didn’t seem to work for me.
http://codex.bbpress.org/legacy/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/

So in a nut shell. How can I make it use the template in my second example?

Thanks in advance and be gentle with me 😉

Hi, I’ve done searching and couldn’t find anything related specifically to my issue with bbpress… I’m running the latest bbpress with WordPress 3.4.2 for my forum on my blog.

My forums are located here: http://wrtapps.com/forums/
The problem is the title of the forums page below the menu bar. It shows the title as “General discussion” which so happens to be the last forum page I saved in my dashboard. Previously it was showing the title as “Troubleshooting”… How do I change this to a custom title?

Thanks!

[hatoncat]

I noticed a recent bbPress update touted improved Multisite flow support – any progress on this issue?

Doesn’t look like it from my initial testing, but fingers are crossed hoping something official is in the works.

[Shane Gowland]

You can use the shortcode in the PHP template files with the do_shortcode() function.

echo do_shortcode('[bbp-topic-index]'); would do the trick.

Of course; there is a performance overhead involved with making WordPress parse the shortcode before displaying the content. Using WP_Query and creating a custom loop would be the ideal method, but it’s also much trickier.

[wpmhweb]

Hi, thanks for the answer, but I meant in the theme as inside of the PHP template files. How could I bring for example the latest questions to the front static homepage.

Thanks

[royho]

So I just installed the latest bbPress 2.2.2 and see that all my users have no role set for the forum so I then proceed to use the remap tool to set them a default of participant. This all worked fine however, it also switched my admin account to participant also instead of keymaster. So my question is how do we apply the keymaster role back to the admin?

[Starejosel]

Can one use the plugin “Advanced TinyMCE Config”? I tried to use it to set “teeny” to “false”, but it didn’t change anything.

Any advice will be much appreciated.

 

 

[John James Jacoby]

• Use a regular old WP_Query()
• Use a widget
• Use bbp_has_forums()
• Use the shortcode mentioned above

There are lots of examples, in the forums, on the codex, and in the bbPress code itself. Also, unclear what you mean by “latest forum.” Do you mean topics, or replies, or something else?

I know PageLines released an updated compat plugin for bbPress 2.2, what version that actually is I am not sure as it doesn’t appear publicly (from what I can see).

http://www.pagelines.com/forum/topic/23459-bbpress-22-crash/page__hl__bbpress#entry137455

Make sure you are running WordPress 3.4.2 and bbPress 2.2.2 and the latest updates from PageLines , if you are still not seeing any content I would ask PageLines support to look into it further.
