Hey,

I tried the last few days to figure out, what I did wrong. On my test version of WordPress I installed bbpress for development. Everything is working fine there.

For the customer, I installed the latest WordPress 3.4 Release Candidate. But when I tried to call */forums, the request slows down and All I get is the theader element. I can get to single forums, topics etc, but I cannot see the whole forums.

Any Idea how to solve this?

I’m using bbPress 2.1 on my of buddypress powered sandbox & enable the new “group forum” feature that comes with 2.1.

Everything works perfectly except for one thing: I’m only able to post topic & reply in the group forum. When I tried to edit, split, close, stick, merge, trash, spam a topic / reply in the group forum, it don’t work and like if nothing is happen.

If you want to take a look, please go to http://cheng.scirefs.org and login using the following info:

Try posting a topic or a reply in the forum of one of the test group and try to edit it. You’ll know what I’m mean.

Do anyone here is having the same problem?

Hi

This topic is posted on 2 places :

– bbpress.org forum

– premium.wpmudev.org community support forum

While working on a site to be launched on the same day (= I had to have it working

I discovered something interesting

BBpress second level forum (= with a parent forum/category) also in the permalink, will result in page not found.

I searched for this issue and came across a few topics, where it was advised to reapply the permalinks, then save again the BBpress settings, where we set the slugs.

I tried everything there and still the same issue, but it was clearly an issue with rewrite.

So I begun to deactivate every other plugin I have and after every deactivation I tried if second level forums were loading. I thought specifically about security plugins such as Wordfence, Better WPSecurity, but nope.

Finally, it was when ******I deactivated wpmudev’s Pro Sites plugin, that the second level forums were loading.*******

I tried another forum plugin but really I will need BBPress (big amount of subforums necessary on this website)

now I made some tests, and to make short :

– if Pro Sites activated :

-> 1st level forum will work

-> 2nd level forum will not work

– if Pro Sites is deactivated :

-> 1st level forum will work

-> 2nd level forum will work and can be reached with those 2 url

A: example.com/forums/forum/level1/level2

B: example.com/forums/forum/level2

(forums/forum beeing the slugs set in Forums settings page)

is it normal we can reach with 2 different permalinks?

***** and as it changes automatically, is there a way to force (in BBPress code) a subforum permalink to stay 1st level even if in a sublevel? would be interesting also in the case a forum is moved to another category then it wouldn’t change url ***** (and at the same time it would solve/hide the issue with Pro Sites)

so cleary this is a rewrite stuff that goes beyond my knowledge, for info my permalinks are set to the second option /2012/06/07/exemple-article/ and .htaccess present with necessary change in it

I use also buddypress on that site but didn’t go until desactivate it as it worked when I deactivated Pro Site,

the site I was working on has buddypress, but not the groups and forum elements checked, forum beeing BBpress anyway (I also tried to check/uncheck forums in buddypress settings, really not related to the issue)

so I was thinking to install a testsite with only vanilla WP Multisite and buddypress, as I need all my tests done that way

+ for this issue : Pro Sites and BBPress

so if there is anything you tell me to try, it will be done

thank you very much in advance (anybody, eveybody

I too facing same problem. Did u get the Solution for this problem???If you find solution please post here.

[amax2222]

Hi please help.

I’m using the latest bbpress plugin on a multisite.

If I go to the user profile page, eg. http://example.com/forum/users/username, there is an edit link next to the profile but only Super-Admins can click on this link and edit their profile from the frontend. If they are not super-admins then the page refreshes to the same page without offering the editing functions.

How can I allow subscribers etc to edit their profile page?

Thank you.

@Lynq. Thanks again. But it doesnt cut it. But almost – i tried putting it in my post.php and it doesnt care about the postmeta thing – it just pulls in all the latest topics. I will try some more.

I have been working around it and noticed that when converting from forum topic to post – then the topic and reply simply got the post or page as parent – so perhaps it is already possible to have topics for posts in stead of forum ? More than one that is – because bbpress for topics already allows for one topic only per post.

Does anyone know if it is already possible within the system itself ? That it just has to be enable somehow ? Or is it just in the planning ?

Thanks,

Jacob

Hmm, I just tested and couldn’t reproduce the issue.

I’m testing on 2.1 trunk and WP 3.4 trunk, so it’s possible has been fixed in one of those versions that you’re not running.

Anyways, in Settings > Media I set the embeds max size to width 200, height 0 and it resized it correctly.

Thanks again man. my functions page does not have the ?> code at the end just the endif; statement so i placed the code in the end of that and still nothing. here is the code I placed with the end of my functions.php page:

// Prints the string, replacing the placeholders.

printf(

$posted_in,

get_the_category_list( ‘, ‘ ),

$tag_list,

get_permalink(),

the_title_attribute( ‘echo=0’ )

);

}

endif;

add_action( ‘bbp_get_reply_content’, ‘do_shortcode’);

Is there another page where that php script continues on it seems to not end in functions.php but like I said i’m not the greatest at PHP. I so don’t want to pay to have this thing finished at least if I know that the “allow shortcode” script is in the right place i can see if its a file permissions issue but I dont think it is. What do you think?

[cruthas]

Well it isn’t perfect and if anyone can/would like to give me any feedback, I would much appreciate it.

I was able to get everything to align (not perfectly) with some tweaking of the css and @media queries in the stylesheet. I haven’t tested it on the Andriod so I don’t know if it works, but on the iPad and iPhone I was able to get it to look presentable, should someone view the forum on a mobile device.

If anyone wants to see my css, I’ll post it. If not, guess the post will just get buried.

Running Win7 and checked in latest release versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, IE and Opera.

The only issue I can see is in IE and Opera as you mentioned and from clicking around it looks like there is just an issue with the ad in your sidebar.

It doesn’t appear to have any clear: right/both; applied to it so it sits to the left of the searchform. I applied

style="clear: right;"

to

<div align="center">

and it fixed the issue in both IE and Opera.

Hi There,

I am running the latest wordpress

site url is: http://www.climberism.com/forum-page-tst/

We have an iframe setup in the url above pointing to the bbpress forum we have installed. It is the only way I can get it to work with my wordpress theme. Anyway, is there a way to stop the iframe refresh from always going back to the same page? ie. if you’re in the “gear talk” section and refresh you just get dumped back to the main forum page.

If anyone has any ideas, that would be awesome. Thanks.

Right now, in ver 1, my profiles come up as such: profile.php?id=3. If a spammer is able to register, they can move through everyone’s profile by just sequentially moving through the numbers. Some numbers will not exist as the user was deleted.

They can actually do this for profile names too. So if a spammer registers on your site, like one of your latest, Nike101NFL, all they have to do is punch in a particular user name in to the profile url, and they can see everything, but can`t see the email address. So how do I protect my users?

Hi, I was hoping someone could guide me here. On http://www.rutmonkey.com/moto-forums/

Notice my menu item is highlighted “Dirt Rider Forums”

Now notice when you click on one of the Forums such as “Test Forum” the menu item is no longer highlighted.

I added the menu through WP Custom menus and added the “Forums” page to it and renamed it “Dirt Rider Forums”

Anyone know this fix? I’m guessing some CSS somewhere?

[Lynq]

Have you tested it with the twentyten theme?

If that works, then it could be an issue with the theme being out of date.

Good luck!

[Lynq]

Hi Scheena,

I did it with the following piece of code:

<div id="recent-topics-block">

<?php

if ( bbp_has_topics( array( 'author' => 0, 'show_stickies' => false, 'order' => 'DESC', 'post_parent' => 'any', 'posts_per_page' => 5 ) ) )

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/loop', 'latest-topics' );

?>

</div>

[tenaki]

wp-admin/nav-menus.php on the left I have options to drag into my menus

Custom links

Pages

Categories

But not forums.

On another site I have the same set up and forums are an option to add to the menu.

Any ideas. Latest version of both bbpress and wp

[Lynq]

Have you made sure akismet is updated to the latest version?

[mhensler]

I’m using the latest version of bbPress at http://www.mrhensler.com/forums. The forums show up fine, but when I click on them it just takes me to a blank page with a “comments are closed.” Message. Any ideas?

[iTHINKSOLUTIONS]

I’m trying to create the author.php file inside wordpress to display user’s profile, latest blog posts and user’s forum activities. Using the snippet below just returns empty data for each user. I’m sure I’m missing something in the snippet and hopefully someone could point me to the right direction.

<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_notices' );



// Subscriptions

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/user', 'subscriptions'  );



// Favorite topics

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/user', 'favorites'      );



// Topics created

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/user', 'topics-created' );



?>

Thanks.

Latest stable release of BBPress: 2.0.2

[cus003]

I have 2 bugs to report. Latest WordPress and BBpress plugin. No bbpress plugins.

1) I don’t know if anyone else has experienced this, but when I update my profile using the front-end profile editor, it resets the “disable visual editor” and “show admin bar on frontend” thingys so that I always see the visual editor (which i hate) and I don’t see the admin bar. So every time, I have to go back to backend and manually change them again!

2) I logged out, after replying to a thread, then immediately logged in on another account. Yellow text appeared above the reply box saying “you are now logged out”. Then I immediately posted a reply with apostrophies in, and instead of posting it, it reloaded the page with slashes added. I manually removed the slashes, hit the post button, and this time it worked as normal.

Anyone else got either of these?

Hi all,

I have been going nuts as to how I can successfully install bbpress latest version. Well, I tried everything and all just failed.

I downloaded the latest files, uploaded it in my root directory but never I did get the bbpress installation page. I am using latest WP installation (this is the intended URL http://www.easyenglishlearning.org/ask/) but I never got the bbpress installation instructions page.

Moreover, I also uploaded it to my plugins directory as mentioned in the downloading page and I got it in my Wp dashboard but it came just as a plugin and nothing a different forum software where I can change theme, and everything. Now, please guide me.

[scheena]

I just wanna ask, how did you add the latest discussion at the very top? Im kinda a newbie about this

[Lynq]

I am sure there is a better solution, but you could use something like

if ( bbp_has_topics( array( 'author' => 0, 'show_stickies' => false, 'order' => 'DESC', 'post_parent' => 'any', 'posts_per_page' => 5 ) ) )

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/loop', 'latest-topics' );

Then use some css to remove everything except the avatars.
