bbPress purposely forces the editor into ‘teeny’ mode. You’ll need a plugin to change that, which is possible to filter out.

But i’ve Ultimate TinyMCE… Present in wordpress editot… But i don’t see in bbpress :/

[John James Jacoby]

The UI on BuddyPress’s end hasn’t been updated yet. If you have bbPress installed, and are using it to power your group forums, the BuddyPress forums component should be completely turned off.

It’s possible there’s an issue with BuddyPress 1.6 in this regard, but there wasn’t in my testing. I’ll take another look around.

[John James Jacoby]

There’s a plugin already; something to the effect of Advanced TinyMCE.

Thanks so much @jmdodd!

I had some redirect code in /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php, which redirected user straight to the forum page when they clicked on a group, instead of the group’s homepage which a lot of our users found confusing.

I just had to change the last line from “forums” to “forum” and that seems to have done the trick.


function redirect_group_home() {
global $bp;
$path = clean_url( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] );
$path = apply_filters( 'bp_uri', $path );
if (bp_is_group_home() && strpos( $path, $bp->bp_options_nav[$bp->groups->current_group->slug]['home']['slug'] ) === false ) {
$bp->groups->current_group->status == 'private' || $bp->groups->current_group->status == 'hidden') {
if ($bp->groups->current_group->status == 'public' || ($bp->groups->current_group->is_user_member && $bp->groups->current_group->status == 'private') || ($bp->groups->current_group->is_user_member && $bp->groups->current_group->status == 'hidden')) {
// bp_core_redirect( $path . 'forums/' );
bp_core_redirect( $path . 'forum/' );
}
}
}


@johnjamesjacoby feel free to toy around with website and test the installation. The link is in my previous post. I’m not using S2members though, but User Role Editor. I still need to do some more thorough testing before I move all this onto my production website.

[Anonymous User 7670885]

Maybe a small plugin for choose the button(s) to show in bbpress is a good idea 🙂

[John James Jacoby]

Easily enabled with a small plugin or filter. I’m sure someone can chime in with a solution here.

[Anonymous User 7670885]

Like from object… No more Ultimate TinyMCE (no more other button except wp default) in Fancy editor after latest (2.2) bbpress update :/

[LabSecrets]

Mmmm…..

Maybe want to hang on to the sticky for a bit longer?

2.2 seems to have unleashed a wave of calls and emails to our office from folks having some troubles with the update… especially those running any plugins that worked with <= 2.1.3 … many of those plugins aren’t playing nice with 2.2

I’m going to be doing a bunch of testing and experimenting in the meantime, but for now many folks have a nice safe place to go with 2.1.3 while the new stuff shakes out on 2.2+

When our new video is ready, I’ll send it over to help out anyone with these growing pains.

Cheers!

Thank you for your responses but I haven´t been able to fix the problem yet.

Unfortunatelly the embeeding is not working even using just the image or video url. It is only showing hyperlinks to the URLs.

As suggested by the codex embeds page I used the [embed]…[/embed] shortcodes with the same results.

By the way, I have wordpress “Auto-embeds” and bbpress “Auto-embed Links” checked

Any other idea on how to fix this problem?

if necesary you can use this test user:Username: ricardo2012

I’ve also had to downgrade to 2.1.3 after getting reports from some users that they were seeing the page not found page on all pages under our /forums/

I’ve filed a trac ticket here:

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2041

Copy and pasting the text:

After upgrading to 2.2 I got reports from certain users that they were seeing our page not found on all forum pages under the /forums/ URL including the base URL itself.

I logged in and tested it with my admin account and did not see it.

I created a normal user account and also could not repro.

I then signed in as that specific user and got a repro.

I then checked the network activity in Chrome and noticed that the site was sending a 200 HTTP code but serving up the standard 404 page. Which explains why I wasn’t seeing any 404’s in my web server error log.

Note that our forums are accessed via HTTPS so this may help you repro.

I downgraded to 2.1.3 and instantly the issue was fixed.

I haven’t noticed any heuristic with the user account that I managed to repro on. I even checked the cookie string to see if there was something odd about that users cookies, but didn’t notice anything.

hello,
after the latest bbpress update my forums don’t work (when you click a forum topic, there are no posts or replies) and my navigation bar is also gone, along with my logo. It seems something has broken the buddypress system, I even use the default bp theme. http://msflights.net/forums/forum/general-discussion If you click any of the topics, there are no replies, it is just blank once it loads up.

What should I do to fix this?
thanks

I test updated bbPress 2.2 (it does NOT say that it is 2.2.1) on my MAMP server, and it is now missing several of the Settings from 2.1.3 that I actually used.

“Theme Packages – Current Package” is gone, which I set to Twenty Ten (bbPress) on my sites, although then I use the ‘bbPress (Twenty Eleven)’ child theme from ServerPress.com as my active theme – which may negate any effect of this setting.

I don’t see the “Per RSS Page” settings any more, and I have “Akismet – Use Akismet” selected on the production site in 2.1.3; now those are gone in 2.2.

I did not see anything in the Changelog for 2.2 that led me to expect these changes.

I also have ‘Search bbPress 2.0’ ver 1.0 from ServerPress.com installed; I wonder if that will still work in 2.2.x???

After a bad week following an update from Wordfence 3.3.7 to 3.4.1 (just fixed in 3.4.4), I am in no hurry to update another major plugin on my site prematurely.

Add the [bbp-topic-index] shortcode to your page.

i am building a site using bbpress & s2member, but i am also using user role editor plugin to apply custom capabilities to s2 member roles, so far this has worked fine, but i have not updated this test site to bbpress 2.2 yet

ross, have you tried inspecting your s2 member roles with something like user role editor, members, or role scoper ? this should allow you to customize you roles w bbpress permissions as needed

also, is there a clear explanation anywhere about just what this new role system in bbpress 2.2 is and what it means for sites with custom capabilities ?

Nope just tested oneall also and had no problem registering. In fact it was much easier. Totally confused now as to why I can register and others cant. I am going to try to troubleshoot using a different computer, maybe it is a browser issue.

[rossagrant]

Assigning a forum role of ‘participant’ to the free members that for some reason cant post fixes the issue.

If everyone could be assigned a ‘participant’ role as default that might be the way forward with this?

Not quite sure where the role named ‘member’ is being assigned from to my free members in the forums, as it doesn’t seem to be selectable role in the drop down for forum role.

I have ‘Participant’ set as the default role which I think it was preset to in the forums options now.

I notice the tick box to assign this role to all new signups, but a box to assign it to existing members except admins would be cool.

I’m not sure what the best way is, but I’m guessing there will be an awful lot of sites breaking if they do this upgrade.

Would love to hear some suggestions.

Not to sound ungrateful though, I love BBPress. I’ll gladly help test everything on my staging site until we can work it out for everyone.

🙂

[ript247]

OK I see.. thank you. its probably why I didnt have an issue registering with my test users 🙂

[ript247]

Using Wp 3.4.2 and latest version of bp my site is http://riptpages.com  My problem is that I have been informed that there are two issues with registering to my site . 1) once registered  and activated username and password not recognized 2) some members are not receiving activation emails.  Im not sure when the issue started or how to duplicate the problem i ran several test signups and they were successful all the way through.  Not sure what is the problem. Although Im glad to finally find out what was going on because I found it odd at first that I had a steady flow of members registering and no one posting or commenting, but it makes since now. So if anyone could be so kind as to give me a suggestion on how to fix. I read on another forum that the issue could probably be fixed with this wp-mail-smtp plugin but Im not sure if it applies to my problem. Thanks in advance

My original setup was based on WordPress 3.4.2 and BuddyPress 1.6.1
I added a BP Group Forum which we realized will not be sufficient and if anything just confusing to members. So I completely deleted the Forums page and added a new page called Group Discussions. I then went to BP settings and pointed forums option to use this page. No problem there.

Next, I installed bbPress 2.2 / activated / added couple of test forums / check the slug making sure that it worked by going to: http://ch.lifewithababy.com/forums and it did.
Next step was to add a new Forums page which I did. Right after http://ch.lifewithababy.com/forums became blank??? Why???

I then deleted the Forums page and http://ch.lifewithababy.com/forums worked again… hmmm…
At this point I am confused…

So I ended up adding the page and then adding a shortcode to show the forum and it works, kind of.
It works for public but if I login as a member (one of my test buddypress members) the page no longer available??? As a logged in member I get “We’re sorry, but we can’t find the page that you’re looking for. Perhaps searching will help.” which makes no sense at all.

Could someone please help? I have no idea what is causing this mysterious behaviour and how to resolve it.

Thanks.

[kraigg]

Good morning,

I upgraded to the latest bbPress 2.2, and now clicking on any of my forums return “Page not found. We’re sorry, but we can’t find the page that you’re looking for. Perhaps searching will help.”

I thought it might’ve been my custom theme, so I went back to the default theme but I still have the same problem. The strange thing is that the page title at the top of the browser shows the correct forum title, so it is going to the right URL. But it is just not loading any of the forums

I have my forums in the following URL structure, which worked in bbPress 2.1.3 and below:
http://www.mywebsite.com/groups/general-groups/my-test-group/forums/

I tried repairing the forums, but that didn’t work either. Please help? How do I fix this?

[weeeq]

I’m trying to display the latest replies from the forum, but while the widget is perfectly running, each time i use i get “no topics”

[wpmhweb]

I am using WordPress 3.4.2 and I would like to display the latest questions (last 5 or 10 Qs) in my static homepage. There is a way to add some code to my template and display bbpress questions?

Thanks,

[sambedingfield]

Just updated to 2.2 and had a run around to make sure everything is still compatible with my theme, and all is perfect apart from the pagination on each users profile.

The permalink to numbered pages is /users/admin/page/2/ and returns a 404, when on this forum the permalink looks like /users/admin/topics/page/2/

I’m guessing that updating bbPress is not the cause, as my site is too new to know if it was previously working – but I’m very grateful if you can help put me in the right direction for a fix!

Thanks.
