I am trying to get rid of the text: “Add this topic to your favorites” and “This topic is one your favorites”, as I am using a background css image instead.

The icons are working beautifully, bar the fact that the text comes up.

You will also notice that if you click the star to add it to your favorites, another star appears, which is a link to all your favorites. It appears the link to the forum favorites doesn’t have its own css class, which is why both are coming up as stars. I’d like to get rid of that.

Not sure if this will fit in with your plugin bbPress String Swap David, if you see this.

If you want to see this in action on my forum (still being built), log in at http://netballscoop.com/log-in/ with Username: testing and Password: testing. The forums are at http://netballscoop.com/forums and click on a single topic to see the favorites and subscriptions at the top underneath the title.

I am using WordPress 3.4.2 and bbPress 2.1.2.

I just installed bbPress and did a test creation of a new user and it sent me the email with the random password but after I logged in I saw no way for a user to change that password to something they would remember. Am I missing something or can’t this be done?

Hi all,

I just did an upgrade from bbPress 1 (standalone version) to the latest version. I imported the old forum using the plugin’s Tools > Import Forum function. All my topics and replies are there, but it shows that I am the creator for everything. It’s very flattering, but now it just looks like I talk to myself:

Some screenshots:

Is there a way to recalculate/import users?

Do I need to re-import?

Thanks!

I’ve just tested this on my local bbPress and only the first snippet is needed. The meta box was added automatically and everything worked fine.

It might be a theme conflict, have you tried switching to the default theme?

[dcstover1]

Whenever i try to test my forum and post a new topic i get the “This webpage has a redirect loop”blah blah blah resulted in too many redirects.” Before anybody suggests it, i have already tried to deactivate all plugins and change my theme to 2010, still the same crapola. I’ve already looked in my cpanel too, no redirects are setup there….Any suggestions?

I am using WP 3.4.2, BBPpress 2.1.2, and the latest Graphene theme. Is there anyway to add a preview button to the visual editor? I found a wp plugin that claims to do it in fullscreen mode, but it didn’t seem to work when I was using the visual editor for replying to a topic or starting a new topic.

Any suggestions, help, etc. much appreciated.

I know how to create child themes in WordPress, but given that bbpress uses a special theme within the plugins subdirectory I am confused as to where it goes. Can someone please tell me where to put it?

Does the child theme go in this directory?
/Clean_Test/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes

Or, here:
/Clean_Test/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/bbpress

Or, some other place?

Hello,

When I viewed the bbpress.org demo forums my expectation was that my forums landing page would look the same as the demo after installation but in fact it does not.

Could someone please help me with a solution exactly the same as the bbpress forums landing page which shows the latest topics with the exact same information displaying?

• Topic (ex. bbPress 2.2)
• Voices (ex. 14)
• Replies (ex. 14)
• Freshness (ex. 2 weeks, 4 days ago (avatar) (name of member who last posted)

From my understanding the widget called (bbPress) Recent Topics already has this functionality but is lacking the information to display Voices, Replies and (avatar) (name of member who last posted) .

What is the easiest way to implement this? Modify the widget? Create a new widget? Implement the code into the Forums landing page itself?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks very much!

[kowalski]

recent topics is poor, i d like to display table with latest post in widget or by php, do you know how to do that?

[dosch]

Hey,

I have the latest version of WordPress and use Multisite installation with 30+ users. The multisite has 6 different blogs and one forum powered by bbPress.

According to the Dashboard of the website with bbPress there are 32 users on the fora. But when I click on the ‘Users’ Tab there are only 4 users…
Also users complain that they get errors while trying to start new topics…

Look here for a screenshot: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/440/screenshot20120917at154.png

Also in the superadmin dashboard of the network there are only three listed users, but it says there should be 32…

Any idea how to resolve this?

[sunilsahu]

Hi,

I’m trying to import an existing vBulletin 4.2 based forum. The IP is correct, so are database name, user name and password. However all the importer says is “No users to import”, “No threads to import” etc.

I’m running latest stable versions of WordPress and bbPress.

Any clues? Thanks!

[rmazereeuw]

Having the same issue as roddaut:

Up-to-date WP install, working fine with bbpress until latest update.

New users getting the “slow down…” error message trying to post new topics of replying to existing.

Resetting the throttle to 0 seems to help temporarily, but it always reverts back to 10 seconds.

Tried deactivating all plugins and no difference.

roddaut: Which membership software are you using. We have iMember360 (aka InfusionWP)

anyone: Is there somewhere in the php files where I can set the throttle to 0 (other than in the dashboard, which isn’t sticking)?

vaantti: The throttle setting is under Settings > Forum

Thanks

Hi all,

Just a quickie, are there any stress testing scripts or tools available to test user load on Buddy Press. I have found the AB analysis tool under Apache but would like something a little more precise?

Many thanks in advance

Hi, I’m struggling a bit to get started with bbpress plugin dev, I’ve managed to write plugins for WP in the past thanks to the WP codex. Looking at other threads I see the advice is to look at the WP documentation or look at examples – I’ve tried both and getting a bit stuck. If anyone has some time to help me get hooked into the API it would be much appreciated – after that I should be able to start creating some cool stuff!

So my first experiment is to try and update a post within a topic. Looking at the append signature plugin I can see they use the bbp_get_topic_content filter. If I were updating “the_content” in WP I would do something like this:

function bbp_topic_content_append_text( $content = '') { 
            $content = $content . 'SOME_TEST_TEXT';

                    return $content;
    }

    add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_content', 'bbp_topic_content_append_text');

But this doesn’t do anything when I load a topic? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks 🙂

I already searched this forum and quite a few people had a similar problem about 6 months ago. My case is a bit different though.

I’m running the latest version of bbPress on the latest version of WordPress.

The created forums are all open and public.

When I as an admin user create new topics in any forum, I get the following result on any of these forum pages:

> This forum contains X topics, and was last updated by Admin Y hour,
> Z minutes ago.
>
> Oh bother! No topics were found here!

The topics list simply does not show up for me as a creator of these topics. When logged in as a subscriber, everything shows fine though.

My list of plugins is:

bbPress, Black Studio TinyMCE Widget, Manage Upload Types, Polylang, User Access Manager, WordPress HTTPS, wp-jquery-lightbox, wpsc Support Tickets, WP SlimStat

The used theme is:

EvoLve by Theme4Press

[smiga]

jeeni, latest plugin code can be found on https://github.com/pippinsplugins/bbp-mark-as-read

[jeeni]

I’d love this feature too. Our forum is coming from phpBB and the unread posts is dearly missed. Where can I donate to support this plugin/update? Where is the download of the plugin in progress? I’d be happy to donate and test if it’s of any help.

[terri.swiatek@yahoo.com]

I am using Salutation as well as of 9/2012, maybe it’s a theme problem? But they always just say it’s a bbPress or Buddypress problem.

I’m using BuddyPress Version 1.6.1 and bbPress Version 2.1.2 I am using Sitewide Forums

I can create Groups and Topics but the Topics don’t appear on the site. What’s strange is it shows the count of Topics in the Forum and is putting the occupied space in the layout but they are not displayed.

If anyone can help me figure it out I’d be very grateful.

Also, the Search box for the Forums and the Order by: Dropdown menu when used don’t display any results when I know there should be items listed there.
Any Ideas?

Travel to last unread reply is “must have” feature. I dont think some special arrow is needed, the old 1.x bbpress plugin worked so, that in latest topics page you see unread topics in different collor and when you entered that topic, it automaticaly bring you to last unread post in that topic. It was simple and perfect.

Thanks Pippin, can’t wait to test it!

Is there also the possibility of having a link next to to the topic title, like an arrow, so when you click on the arrow it will send you to the last reply that you haven’t read in that topic?

[smiga]

Downloaded the latest version of code.

-“Mark all as read” works fine, tried for 439 topics at once, worked fast.
-“Unread forum topics” under profile seams to be working (initially I had case when new topics did not appeared as unread, but I was not able to repeat and catch exact case how I got it)

One remark – when user registers new topic or reply and do not wait 10 seconds his own topic appear as unread. Would be good to mark those immediately as read.

I’m running the latest version of WordPress and bbPress (forget to mention that, sorry)

Hello Pippin,
I haven’t had time to test this yet, but am following along on the comments and it brought something to mind. I ended up not being able to use another one of your plugins (the Mark as Read for posts) because longtime members would have had something like two hundred “unread” posts since the implementation of the plugin in was new.

Will this have the same drawback, or will there be a “mark All as read” option so everyone who has been keeping up can start fresh?
