Are you using the latest versions of bbPress/WordPress?

I’ve never heard of this happening at all since 2.0 has been released. I have no cluet what’s going on, but we’re going to need a lot more information.

Can you duplicate this?

We need to know the steps taken to “break” it. Specifically, what “edit” link did she click? On what post? When it took her to the edit page, what was the full URL? That sort of information.

You need to ask the user for step by step direction on how this occurred. We need to duplicate it to see if it is indeed a real bug or just something breaking on your site due to a theme/plugin conflict. 🙂

Hello,

I am just wondering if this is how it suppose to work. I was testing the user’s page in bbpress and I update my bio and when I hitted the update profile button it seemed that it worked ok. Later on I was in my WordPress user profile when I noticed that most of my settings were reset to defaults. I shouldn’t updated my profile through bbPress? Or there is a bug?

Thanks,

PS: I am using WP 3.4.2 and bbP 2.1.2

Hi Guys,

I have no idea what has happened to my forums – they were up and running fine for a little while but have recently fallen apart on me.

Am running the Pagelines Framework, latest versions of BBPress, Buddypress and WordPress.

Have tried deactivating recently installed plugins with no success. If anyone could suggest what may be going on that would be greatly appreciated

Apologies in advance if I have not provided enough info – if you need anything else, please just ask. I am new around these parts 🙂

Hi,

how do I exclude addthis from my forum posts. There are no addthis checkbox in the post area so I suppose that I have to put some code in the bbpress forum template?

Sorry I misunderstood what was going on, thanks for the link. First make you are running the latest version of bbPress, then switch bbPress to using the bbp-theme-compat theme instead of bbp-twentyten. See if that fixes it 🙂

If it doesn’t then we will have to start making edits to your site theme.

I’m sure this won’t help, but just out of curiosity are you on the latest version of WordPress/bbPress?

[Flight777]

Thanks for the anwser. Yes I’m using the latest version. The compat theme does form to the two column lay-out (normally not visible on the other pages, only used for the login part of the forum). TwentyTen does not: http://www.verantwoordnalaten.com/versie2/forums/topic/test/

[wpmhweb]

I just updated to the latest bbPress version from 2.0 and I don’t the new fancy editing elements in my forum.
I am currently using an edited version of the twentyten theme that I am using as a child theme. Do I need to update the theme in order to see the new fancy editing elements? How can I fix this problem? Thanks,

PS: I am also running WordPress 3.4.2

I think it would be a case of changing the order of the two filters? So when you apply a filter you have to set the priority:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_filter

If you change the priority of the filter on that plugin to be less than the filter on mine it might then work in the right order.

Which plugin are you using? Is it this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/kk-i-like-it/

I can have a look if I can get the right plugin to test…

[renai42]

hey everyone,

installed a base install of bbPress today on a test site:

http://topstory.com.au/forums/

Basically all I want to do is modify the font size down, from 12px to 11px. Can someone tell me where I can do this? I’ve done a lot of frakking around with CSS files with WordPress, but can’t find the right setting in bbPress.

Cheers,

Renai

I’m not sure I follow. If you activate bbPress using the TwentyTen theme it should be two columns. Make sure you are using the latest version of bbPress.

I want my forms to only be visible to a certain membership level, and I am using the Member Wishlist Plugin.

Everytime I select the box asking to protect the content for a certain membership level, and then i select the one it should be available to, and then click save – NOTHING HAPPENS! It keeps returning to a default of some kind – making the it unprotected and not for any specific membership level.

I am really frustrated. Those options are working for everything else, just not the forum.

Second:

I am a newbie at all of this – I can’t seem to figure out how to put the forums into a specific PAGE so that I can include it on a customized menu.

Can some please help me out here 🙂

I am using a GENESIS framework, with child theme “landscape” – using the latest version of bbPress, and my website is http://www.wivesofjannahcommunity.com

[Jared Atchison]

There’s no plugin for this that works with the latest version of bbPress. Typically if you want advanced user profiles/user messaging you can use BuddyPress to add that functionality in tandem with bbPress.

Okay, I tried something and it seems to work, but I want to make sure it won’t break something else down the way.

I setup a 301 redirect so that whenever you go to /forums (which doesn’t work), it sends you to /forum (which does) instead. I did some testing and it appears to be okay, but I’m concerned that it might introduce other issues.

Hi,

I installed the worpdress plugin for BBPress and i was facing some alignment issues. So i decided to remove the plugin and install a fresh copy.

After reinstalling, the forum appears blank (The test forum and topic i created do not appear).

Am i doing something wrong?

Please guide me.

Thanks,
PAbbe

Hi, i need the code to put in my template to have the pagination for the latest topics, i’ve a list with the last topics but not the pagination to go on page 2 etc anyone can help me?

thanks

This is the problem: http://i.imgur.com/TWMBl.png

(I’m going to put in a separate feature request with Crayon Syntax Highlighter, which we are using to highlight code on bbPress, asking if it’d be possible to ignore HTML tags inside code tags (both square brackets and the more future proof pre tags), but that wouldn’t be the cleanest solution.)

The better solution would be if the importer could prevent this from happening in the first place. If not for square code brackets (although this is a standard set by an Automattic plugin) then at least for pre tags.

In my tests, I embedded code in pre tags in a BuddyPress forum, imported it to bbPress and the embedded code was now populated with HTML tags, mainly br tags for the newlines. Funny thing is if I have the rich editor turned on, I can go into edit mode with a post that has code embedded, then I’ll go to the “Visual” mode and back to “HTML” mode, and everything has been cleaned up. I basically want the importer to do that step for me.

Can you supply a link to the plugin you are talking about:

> filiped / Member / 3 years, 5 months ago

> Admin Can Post Anything, from CK is a great plugin and works
> perfectly in the latest stable version of bbPress.

Thanks

[Starejosel]

I have some more information–I hope that someone can help me.

The problem is to swap the default behavior and make return give a br tag and
shift return give a p tag. The TinyMCE wiki http://www.tinymce.com/wiki.php/Configuration
seems to say that is the way to do it is by setting forced_root_block to false.*

However, when I tried that using the Advanced TinyMCE Configuration plugin by Andrew Ozz , I found:

If I use it to set 
forced_root_block to false, 
nothing changes. 

If I set forced_root_block to true, which I expected 
to do nothing, it breaks the editor: 
The buttons don't work, and anything that I type into 
the Visual editor gets wiped out when I switch to html.

If I set forced_root_block to just a space,
when I typed in 

test
test
test
test

test
test

 it produces the following html:

< >< >test
<!-- -->
test
test
test

test
test


which displays as 

test

test
test
test
test
test

after submitting.

Finally, if I set forced_root_block to div,
when I typed in 

test
test
test
test

test
test

it produces

test
test
test
test

test
test


which displays as 

test
test
test
test
test
test

and there seems to be no way to produce a break.

I hope that this data is useful. ANY help would be GREATLY appreciated.

I’m trying to upgrade a huge bbpress db which until recently we’ve had running on v.0.9. I’ve stepped through the upgrade path of installing v.1 then upgrading to the latest release but when trying to upgrade my database the script always hangs. There doesn’t seem to be a pattern to where it does this (sometimes it processes other times it gets stuck at ‘Starting Conversion’).

I’ve tried running this both on the remote server and setting up the site locally to see if I could get the upgrade done locally before porting to the live server but with no joy.

Is there any other way to upgrade the database except for the bundled converter tool within WordPress? Does anyone have any advice as to how I might be able to achieve this?

Any help much appreciated!

Hi Pippin, great work on this plugin so far. Thank you. I read through the code and tested it out. The plugin works great, and I commend you for your hard work on this. I wanted to provide a bit of feedback in case you are planning any further revisions, just to weigh in with my 2c: 1) I realize you needed somewhere to hook the “mark as read/unread” link, and by default in bbp_theme_compat no action hook is provided in a topic header. Hooking it onto the subscribe link wedges it between subscribe/favorite and is overall a bit awkward for templating. I’m not sure what a better default solution would be, but personally I felt the need to unhook this and manually place the toggle button somewhere more appealing. 2) A standalone function to display a loop of unread topics would be great. show_unread_topics() is purpose built for the bbpress user profile, but under many circumstances users might want to call this list elsewhere (if we are using BuddyPress profiles for example). Personally I created a “View Unread Topics” page that functions similarly to the “Recent Topics” archive. Anyways, including a function for just the unread topics loop (with pagination) would be a nice addition for template flexibility purposes. 3) For a site with thousands of topics, is having that bulky a “_bbp_mar_read_ids” entry in meta a concern? 4) The plugin serves a nice function of allowing a user to track whether or not he/she has looked at topics which are posted. However, it seems to me that full “view unread posts” functionality would entail clearing resetting the “read” flag when the topic is updated with a new reply. What about saving each “read” ID to meta as: post_id?num_replies where num_replies is the number of replies to the topic when the user marked it as read. When a topic is called you can explode out how many replies it had when the user first marked it. If the topic now has more replies than when it was marked, you can override the “read” flag and reset it to unread. Probably not a very elegant solution, but I think what most users would be interested in is being able to generate a list of threads with unread content, not necessarily just unread topics. Anyways, thanks very much for your work on this. I’ll be keeping an eye on how this project develops. Andrew

[jezza101]

OK, so to do that I would have to close the post myself, which looks like I just have to add two x divs

 Div   <!-- .bbp-reply-content -->

Div

But it looks like HTML filters are being applied still – ah, is this a case of ordering things so that my filter comes right at the end, ie after the HTML filter?

..ah a quick test and, yes, this seems to work.

$content=$content.'TEST1(/div)(/div)IS THIS BETWEEN POSTS? YES!(div)(div)';

Ah apologies, the forum filter has filtered out the DIVs above.. putting them back in with curly brackets.

Excellent. Looks like I need to put some thought into how to make it look good but I think I can work on that! One last question then (sorry, and thanks for your help!), how do I pick out the first post?

For some reason I did not see replies to this thread so I’ve not been back until now.

Thanks matthiaswh. That solved the problem. And since it’s a membership site for a very small class with only 20 participants at a time, it won’t be a problem for us.

Also for those asking for more details. I originally solved the problem by going back to the previous version of bbpress. Recently I needed to upgrade bbpress to the latest version again because another plugin would only work with the most recent version.

We use imember360 for our membership system and our theme is Twenty Ten.
