I believe I may have found a solution to this problem… Woot!

1) install the wordpress plugin CLEditor

2) on line 25 of cle_wp.php change the line to read:

$(“#new-post textarea”).cleditor();

3) test, test, test, test, test.

this seems to be working on my test server but I’ve only given it a few minutes trial. I’ve tried it using bbpress standalone alongside buddypress, not in one of the group forums (yet).

mjpg, thanks for writing up the ticket and for the plugin info. i added “read_hidden_forums” only to forum participant capabilities and now a test user forum participant can see a hidden forum in the forum index, but still can’t read it.

andre, thanks for the info. that makes sense to me wrt to user roles, groups and forums. guess you are right: need jjj to say whether bug or feature and if feature, how to properly configure and use.

I’ve figured out how to change the bread crumb separator:

<br /><br />
// Change bbPress bread crumb separator.

function filter_bbPress_breadcrumb_separator() {
//$sep = ' » ';
$sep = is_rtl() ? __( ' « ', 'bbpress' ) : __( ' » ', 'bbpress' );
return $sep;
}

add_filter('bbp_breadcrumb_separator', 'filter_bbPress_breadcrumb_separator');

I have not yet figured out how to add “You are here: ” at the start of the bread crumbs:

I’ve tried this…

<br /><br />
function my_breadcrumb_trail_args( $trail ) {<br /><br />
$args = '<div class="bbp-breadcrumb"><p>You are here: ';<br /><br />
return $args;<br /><br />
};<br /><br />
add_filter( 'breadcrumb_trail_args', 'my_breadcrumb_trail_args' );<br /><br />

…and this…

<br /><br />
function test($defaults) {<br /><br />
$defaults = array(<br /><br />
'before' => '<div class="bbp-breadcrumb"><p>You are here: ',<br /><br />
);<br /><br />
return $defaults;<br /><br />
}<br /><br />
add_filter('bbp_breadcrumb','test_args');<br /><br />

Neither work.

For now I’ve taken the hacky approach and just edited my bbPress files directly. You can see it in action here: http://www.directsponsor.org/forums/

Any assistance with the filter would be greatly appreciated.

[WORK-AROUND]

I used the WP plugin ‘User Role Editor’ (WP not bbp plugin)

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-role-editor/

to add some capabilities to the ‘forum participant’ role.

These seem to be the extra capabilities required:

[v] read_hidden_forums

[v] read_private_forums

[v] read_private_replies

[v] read_private_topics

If set up without the ‘read_hidden_forums’ capability, forums are visible, but not topics. I don’t know if this is real or because I have been switching the hidden/private setting for the forum during testing.

I have done some basic testing and access/posting/replies/create topic/uploads/subscribe all seem to work OK.

I guess this could be done simply via some code in functions.php, but I don’t have the time to investigate.

[dominornovus]

I’ve found a list of hooks and filters for bbPress at:

/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-core-hooks.php

I’ve also found the bbPress bread crumb function(s) at:

/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-common-template.php

By combining code from the two, I’ve attempted adding a filter but it’s being ignored:

function test_args($args) {

$args = array(

'sep' => ' x ',

);

return $args;

}

add_filter('bbp_title','test_args');

< a class=”bbp-forum-title” href=”<?php bbp_topic_permalink(); ?>” title=”<?php bbp_topic_title(); ?>”><?php bbp_topic_title(); ?><?php if ( $show_date == ‘on’ ) _e( ‘af <strongBrugernavn/strong> for ‘ . bbp_get_topic_last_active_time() . ‘ siden

[Rivaldo07]

Hi,

I’m not very good at this, but I somehow managed to create a decent forum (mainly thanks to a super plugin!).

But there is just one thing I can’t figure out: How can I show the latest author from a topic on the front page?

Right now it looks like this:

” title=”<?php bbp_topic_title(); ?>”><?php bbp_topic_title(); ?>
<?php if ( $show_date == ‘on’ ) _e( ‘af Brugernavn for ‘ . bbp_get_topic_last_active_time() . ‘ siden

‘ ); ?>

I want the author of the lastest post instead of “Brugernavn” – but how?

[mjpg]

Andre – many thanks for your reply. I had checked that but I tested it again as follows:

Forum = Visibility: Hidden

User = Forum Participant

Result = Oh bother! No forums were found here!

Forum = Visibility: Hidden

User = Forum Moderator

Result = Forums and topics show OK

Forum = Visibility: Private

User = Forum Participant

Result = Oh bother! No forums were found here!

Forum = Visibility: Private

User = Forum Moderator

Result = Forums and topics show OK

I also tried posting a topic as the user, but even that does not show.

SDo no luck

WordPress 3.2.1; bbPress 2.0; GD bbPress Attachments 1.2.1

I have installed bbPress OK and have a single forum with a few topics/replies as a test.

The forum is for members only and so I set it to ‘private’ in Forum attributes > visibility.

I then created a member ‘Fred Smith’ and set them as a ‘Forum Participant’ but when I log in as them, I get an error “Oh bother! No forums were found here!”.

If I set them to ‘Forum Moderator’ they can see the forum and topics, but then they also have moderator privilages displayed, which is not wanted.

Is this a bug, or am I not understanding ‘private’ correctly?

Thanks for any help.

How can I output the topics loop ordered by # of replies? I know I can grab them via wp_query, but I’m not sure how to also grab voices, latest poster avatar, etc. (to mimic the default topic loop).

Any ideas? Thank you!

[ThemeFUist]

Oops, last function (A bit too much cut and pasting):

function tfuey_bbp_user_can_view_forum() {

$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id();

if (tfuey_bbp_is_premium_forum($forum_id)) {

if (is_user_logged_in()) {

if (current_user_can(‘administrator’) || current_user_can(‘bbp_moderator’) || current_user_can(‘whatever’)) {

return true;

} else {

bbp_get_template_part(‘bbpress/feedback’, ‘no-access’);

return false;

} //End if

} else {

bbp_get_template_part(‘bbpress/feedback’, ‘no-access’);

return false;

} //End if

} else {

return true;

} //End if

} //End function

**EDIT: I changed this a bit more. The bbp_get_template_part lines aren’t needed on my theme but are when using twenty ten for some reason (or when I tested at least). If you get two messages saying you don’t have access just remove them i’m not going to figure out why this happened.

[a2cmedia]

I would like it so that visitors see the latest post from 2 of my forums on the default page. Is there some code to allow me to do this?

[spigi]

OK, in one things I probably make mistake I try to install bbP 1.0 theme using 2.0 version. bbP 2.0 use WordPress theme, am I right? (sorry for my stupid question but I’m just started with bbPress.)

I install Frisco theme (one of this: https://buddypress.org/extend/themes/)

And I still can’t see “add Topic” button. I try everything, every official theme and nothing

What should I do to have “Add topic” button? Exactly like on this forum

PS. I don’t know why but I’m still have this notice:

“Your active theme does not include bbPress template files. Your forums are using the default styling included with bbPress.”

I use Frisco theme, bbPress 2.0, buddyPress 1.5 and WP 3.2.1:

How about using a metabox on your edit forum page to specifiy if the forum is premium:

Add this to your forum functions.php and edit the current_user_can bit at the bottom.

add_action('bbp_forum_metabox', 'tfuey_bbp_support_forum_metabox');

add_action('bbp_forum_attributes_metabox_save', 'tfuey_bbp_support_forum_metabox_save');

add_filter ('bbp_user_can_view_forum', 'tfuey_bbp_user_can_view_forum', 1);

function tfuey_bbp_support_forum_metabox($forum_id) {

if (tfuey_bbp_is_premium_forum($forum_id)) {

$premium_checked = ‘checked’;

} else {

$premium_checked = ”;

} //End if

echo ‘<hr />

<p>

Premium Forum:

<input type=”checkbox” name=”tfuey_bbp_premium_forum” value=”1″ ‘.$premium_checked.’ />

</p>’;

} //End function

function tfuey_bbp_support_forum_metabox_save($forum_id) {

if (isset($_POST) && $_POST != ”) {

update_post_meta($forum_id, ‘_tfuey_bbp_premium_forum’, $_POST);

} else {

update_post_meta($forum_id, ‘_tfuey_bbp_premium_forum’, ”);

} //End if

} //End function

function tfuey_bbp_is_premium_forum($forum_id) {

$tfuey_premium_forum = get_post_meta($forum_id, ‘_tfuey_bbp_premium_forum’, true);

if ($tfuey_premium_forum == 1) {

return true;

} else {

return false;

} //End if

} //End function

function tfuey_bbp_user_can_view_forum() {

$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id();

if (tfuey_bbp_is_premium_forum($forum_id)) {

if (current_user_can(‘administrator’) || current_user_can(‘bbp_moderator’) || current_user_can(‘whatever_you_want’)) {

return true;

} else {

return false;

} //End if

} //End if

} //End function

Leave the forum public and if the premium forum metabox is ticked and the user doesn’t meet the required criteria they will get a “You do not have permission to view this forum” message.

PS. Untested outside my own site plugin and unnecessary bits have been removed but you should get the gist.

PPS. Code doesn’t paste too well here apologies if it looks all over the place.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I’ve released my Search bbPress 2.0, a unified search plugin. It has the following features:

* Unified search extends WordPress native search to bbPress 2.0 content

* Corrected hyperlink search results to the actual forum/topic/reply so that users can participate in the forum right away.

* Fixes bbPress login widget typo for all languages (the Log in button)

I’ve had this on my site for a while for testing (it is working great!) but have just submitted it to the WordPress.org repository. Hopefully if will appear soon. I also submitted a bug report to bbPress trac about the typo and how I performed search a while back (but a little too late for 2.0 release), so hopefully these items will be corrected / become native in future releases! Rather then wait for the repository, feel free to download it from my new site (free):

http://serverpress.com/products/search-bbpress/

If you like it, please let others know and/or tweet about it! My site is brand new, so any traffic would be greatly appreciated. Donations would be to just take a moment to review my other wares.

Thanks!

I have tested several forums with WordPress. Both as separate program and as integrated program/plugin. Every forum we tested had major issues that would prevent being used on our site.

We have installed bbpress plugin and found it very flexible with the exception of being able to hide the sidebars.

Why can’t the whole forum be put into a short-code so it can be applied inside a full-width page?

This forum is full of questions and requests for ppPress to be imbedded via short-code right into a full-width page. Why is it so hard to accomplish this. Afterall, ppPress is written by the same people that created wordpress.

This is very frustrating.

-Mark

[PureRover]

I have installed bbPress plugin. The forum itself is wonderful. I am having a rough time displaying it properly on my site. Using the shortcode [bbp-forum-index], I have setup a page with a full-page attribute. The page is full-width but the forum is not.

http://purerover.com/test/

I am assuming the forum’s widgets are taking up the space right of the forum. I don’t need them and rather the forum took up 100% of the available space.

I see there are additional templates for bbPress. Does this hold true for the plugin version? If so, how can additional templates be selected since this is not an option in the bbPress settings.

I am not a programmer but can following directions. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

A member reported they couldn’t edit their post in a thread. I tested it (as administrator) and this is what came up:

I tried to access the forum via the original link http://www.8ball.lu/wordpress/?p=3448. But that links changes the line in the address bar to the nice address http://www.8ball.lu/wordpress/forums/forum/one-new-test-forum and it still gives 404 error.

regarding the other plugins, true i have 26 plugins active, which i all use.

Are there any known conflicts with other plugins? Just to know before i will make a clean install.

Thank you

[nuobodu]

I’m using numeric permalink structure.

Well, i installed my test environment into that subdirectory. But the links see to be created nicely and logically:

to the forum

http://www.8ball.lu/wordpress/forums/forum/second-new-test-forum

to the topic

http://www.8ball.lu/wordpress/forums/topic/testing-topic-2

even if i add a trailing slash at the end of a link, it doesnt work anyway.

I am completely lost here. I have read every post in this forum about the similar problems, but never saw an insuring answer

I would be happy to give you access to my test setup if you want to see it for yourself?

You can email me here if you’re interested – http://www.binarymoon.co.uk/contact/

Hello,

I know why, I dont know if its a feature or a bug , but..

you only get notification from a registered users. So when user is registered and opens the forum and replies you will get notification, but if the user comes to site and uses only simple form without registration and even if I tick “Notify me of follow-up replies via email” I will not get any notification. I think its not right.

I might be wrong but its my testing and observation. correct me if I am wrong.

thanx

[noelb888]

In a production site, I have akismet disabled. Notifications on that one didn’t work. So I thought it could be related to akisment so in another separate site, I have akismet enabled. That didn’t work either.

However, the common thing on both setup is that it was first a release candidate and then I’ve upgraded it to v2.0

In the test setup, I had these plugins installed

akismet

bbpress,
