I figured out how to make a bbpress.phhp template to use as a wrapper and it seems to be working fine except on the profile pages. Any ideas? Here’s an example profile page: http://pintester.com/forums/users/pintester/

can you give a link for the human test plugin? I can’t find it. and the bbcaptcha plugin doesnt seem to work with the latest version of wordpress.

(WP 3.4.1, bbPress 2.1.2, http://riseaboveindiana.com)

When I as admin — or any subscriber — posts a reply to a forum, it displays the “You don’t have permission to do that!” error message, but the reply still posts to the forum. Anonymous posting and global access are allowed.

Here’s a subscriber username for testing:
ID: bbPress
Password: bbPress

Thanks so much for your plugin and the support you provide for your users!

You should NOT be able to view a private forum directly by its URL.

Are you using the latest bbPress v2.1.2?

Hi,

I’ve installed bbPress on my site at http://www.thebridesboudoir.com/forums/

I’m in the middle of tweaking the templates now after copying them all to my Theme folder. I mainly copied the opening and closing tags from my current themes full width template into each file or am doing thatm, but testing when I go to the main forums, everything is thrown an inch or so to the right? It’s fine when I click on a Post to read te post details.

I have a few tweaks to make yet to the styling e.g. the post titles are too small, but could someone tell me why the main forum look would be skewif?

The other question is, what is Keymaster and how do I hide that. I prefer not to have the admin label in peoples face when I’m using the forums. I assume Key Master is another word for Admin and I don’t like the sound of it. Can I change that and where?

I note on some forums that you can create user roles and wondered if thats possible with bbPress and where that would be changed also?

Thanks for help in advance.

I like the way the forum is mixing in with my site with just a few changes here and there already. I’m surprised I’ve got this far as I’m hopeless with theming etc. Initially I installed and it took my side bar template as default and had sidebar featured and I preferred a full width forum theme, so copied the files to my theme directory. I’d be grateful for the help or hints on how to fix the front page to get it in line.

Testing, testing. 1, 2, 3. Thanks @johnjamesjacoby!

Hi all,

I’ve got a fresh installation of bbPress within a WordPress site with a custom theme. The forum needs some styling work, but seems to be mostly functional, aside from the lack of posts within threads.

I’m including a screenshot of a test thread with one reply. As you can see, the contents of the post and it’s reply are absent and i’m unsure as to where to look to fix it.

WordPress 3.4.2 and bbPress 2.1.2.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Sam.

Same problem here. The profile page displays with text only and it looks horrible. It’s something to do with the theme, but I have no idea how to fix it. Example: http://pintester.com/forums/users/pintester/

[SonjaFoust]

Thanks– that worked! I’m worried that it will get over-written when I update the bbpress plugin, but I guess I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it. 😉 http://pintester.com/forums2

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!

[Pippin Williamson]

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?

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 🙂
