Hi there,
I would like to know if there is a way to import a forum into a page instead of a post? For example, there is a poll plugin for WordPress that allows you to place a poll in the page using [poll id=”3″] tags.
Is this at all possible with bbPress? I’m using the latest WordPress as well as the latest bbPress plugin.
I feel that if this feature does not already exist, it should be implemented in the next release (Please)
Regards,
Installed bbPress 2.0-beta3 plugin this week, things initially seemed to work well, but now the main “Forums” page (http://www.nwcouncil.org/blog/index.php/forums/) doesn’t list any forums. However, the “bbPress Forum List” widget for twentyten theme *does* work.
I have two test forums (see http://www.nwcouncil.org/blog/index.php/forum/eric for example), so each forum and its posts work correctly, but clicking the “Forums” breadcrumb takes you to the blank page above.
I see that the page seems to include content from bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/archive-forum.php, which surprises me because I thought it would use /page-front-forums.php.
The only tweaks I’d made were to uncheck the “Incude the Forum Base slug in your single forum item links” box [also note the typo^ in that checkbox label], and I have WP permalinks set to month/year/postname.
Flummoxed, but liking the plugin in all other aspects.
I will gladly send any other details to whomever can help.
Hi
I’m a internet newbie, don´t know if its because english isn’t my primary language but what you need can be easily achieved with the example i gave before,
you want useres and admins to contact each other right? everyone that registers is a user, anonymous that don’t register dont get the PM function so its all good
am i missing something? user to admin and vice versa work “in theory”. i’m going to work now but i’ll test this tomorrow after work.
I also tried it to Multisite and has the same problem… luckily the mutlisite is for testing purposes not the live Multisite for news
Bug I see Topic Tag: e-commerce
Topic Tag: regras
Home › Fórums › Topic Tag: regras
Oh bother! No topics were found here!
As seen also on this forum
<code>
ricardouk.com/forums/topic-tag/regras
</code>
using latest version…
what happened???
the first version of
bbPress (Twenty Ten) 1.1 by WordPress and bbPress teams
topic tag is ok
but this one
bbPress (Twenty Ten) 1.2 by WordPress and bbPress teams not ok
Additional info:
Tried to fix it I thought taxonomy-topic-tag.php
but after edit
Topic Tag: bbPress
Forums › Topic Tag: bbPress
no topics shown for Topic Tag: bbPress
Only noticed this since my test site got beta3 the other day.
http://beta.tartarus.co.nz/ is the WP, and /forum/ is a page that uses the [bbp-topic-index] and [bbp-forum-index] with default templating (ie: not Forum Index template).
I’ve got three screenshots which show the bbpress plugin settings for the slugs, the /forum/ “Recent Topics” page, the forums slug /forums/ page when you click Forums in the breadcrumb, and my work around to make it behave how I want it to behave (see the urls too).
So 1.png is the /forum/ page.
http://dump.master5o1.com/files/images/bbp/1.png
2.png is the /forums/ slug page as WP/bbp naturally does it.
http://dump.master5o1.com/files/images/bbp/2.png
3.png is done using /forums/index.php to redirect to /forum/.
http://dump.master5o1.com/files/images/bbp/3.png
If I made the /forum/ page slug be forums then it would show blank page probably because bbpress is getting in there first and showing the forum slug page which is blank -_-
I think that if bbpress returns a blank page, it should tell WP that it hasn’t found anything and for WP to continue to look for the page. But I don’t know how the plugin works much atm.
@Patrick – Just audited the usage of bbp_get_reply_url() and bbp_get_reply_position() and made some changes. I’ll be sure to test paginated reply subscription notifications before pushing out RC1.
I’d want to move our 2000+ user forum from bbpress 0.9.3 to bbpress 2 as soon as it’s stable and tested. Will it be possible to save all the internal links as they are now (id-based)? And will the transfer of the 100k+ posts be easy at all?
How about Private Messaging plugin and other extra features which are now run by plugins?

The email notification reply link is fixed in Beta 3. Thanks. A new bug though: that link only works if the reply is on the first of many pages.
For example, the latest reply was emailed to me with this link: http://devpress.com/forums/topics/new-design/#post-2119
Pagination puts that reply on page 2 which means that link doesn’t actually take me to the reply and I have to go to the next page manually.
This is the working link: http://devpress.com/forums/topics/new-design/page/2/#post-2119
Also, that link actually has another bug report
Hi there,
first of all: thank you for this great Forum-Plugin!
I’ve got the standard installation by now and the shortcode [bbp-single-forum id="testforum1"] isn’t working for me.
Has anyone any idea what’s wrong?
[bbp-forum-index] on the same page works perfectly .. but i only want a single forum.
Thank you!
Is <?php do_action( 'bbp_template_after_forums_index' ); ?> working for everyone else. I can’t find any other complaints about it.
The action is being called in archive-forum.php and should output the latest topic replies in chronological order of freshness.
http://devpress.com/forums/ <– no forum index appearing.
Hi
I’m putting together a forum over at http://forum.photoguides.net
It’s yet to be launched and I’ve been having some trouble with plugins.
The plugins Allow Images, BBcode Lite, BB WYSIWYG Editor don’t seem to be working.
Take a look at http://forum.photoguides.net/topic/test-thread where I’ve tried some tags. When logged in and with the reply form visible there is no editing panel for the wisywyg plugin.
These three plugins all seem to be correctly installed in the my-plugins folder and are active. I’m assuming that because all three aren’t working, there’s some fault with the setup of the site.
Any help would be greatly appreciated 
Thanks,
Ash Davies
I am editing the ‘page-front-forums’ template.
I need to display the latest topics after the forums.
I copied the loop from the ‘page-front-topics’ but it does display the sticky topics only.
Any idea ?
Im using the simple-avatars-upload plugin on my WP site, and i was wondering if it was possible to be able to show those avatars on my bbPress forum? Basically link them across?
Im using latest WP 313 and latest version 1 of bbPress.
Thanks,
Jon
Another symptom is that in the topic there are something wrong with posts order. For some reason latest post goes to the top of the list.
It really would be nice to see all the queries fired up by the bbpress.
Just found what I think is a small bug.
If a member posts in a topic, and the admin splits that topic to move it to a new topic of its own, the “freshness” for that topic is still showing the latest poster as the other member, and they and their avatar are also still shown as the last person to post in that topic when viewing the topic.

Hi guys
New to bbPress but have developed a couple WordPress sites.
My latest project needed a forum so I decided to give bbPress a try. First installed WordPress, then installed bbPress into its own directory (permaculture-bb-forum) and did a deep integration. THEN found out WordPress bbPress plugin, installed it, activated it and now see bb stuff in the WordPress admin.
Unfortunately, that interface shows nothing of the posts/topics/forums setup in bb-admin and stuff added via WordPress dashboard does not show up in the bb.
What’s this all about? Can the plugin <i>NOT</i> be used if you first have already installed bbPress? Are there any docs, videos on this?

Thanks

I need captcha plugin for bbpress.I used Human -test and reCaptcha.I am not satisfied that.Please send the link if u get any idea on CAPTCHA
I’ve been running WP sites for a while and have 1 site I use for testing. I installed bbpress as a plugin, and see all the admin screens for it in WP. But am I supposed to install 1.x as well on that server or something? no pages show up when I go to naftulyev.com/forums or any other auto generated forum paths… I get 404 errors. So did I do a partial installation and need to install something else???
Gene
On the user and view pages the body tag has a class of error404, which kinda messes with the layout on my particular setup. I’m using the latest SVN trunk of BBP and the latest trunk of WP 3.2.
@Giulio
That feature is not yet currently available. Actually from my basic understanding of wp user roles, this is going to be a really tough one to tackle.
In general, the way wordPress works is to use actions like read_hidden_forums() where you can then assign that to a specific wp group. The issue comes into play with granular control, i.e. individual forums. Understanding how to extend the control is beyond my knowledge, but will probably be looked into someday.
My own personal plan of attack to solve this is to use buddypress groups to manage the permissions. Each buddypress group can easily have their own admins and moderators. And since each group can have its own forum, then the problem is somewhat solved.
I have not yet done this because I am in no ‘real’ hurry, and personally prefer to wait for buddypress 1.3 before I jump into another huge project.
As the projects mature I think we will start to see many new options popping up.
p.s.
If you are feeling somewhat adventurous, Justin has just released a new beta vs. of members.

I just downloaded and installed bbPress 2.0-beta-2.3 so that I may use it’s forum capabilities in BuddyPress (downloaded the latest version today). However after activating the bbPress I can not access my website – I get the message as follows :
Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_post_type_archive() in /home/bodyw/public_html/healthworks/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-core-compatibility.php on line 446
Does anyone have the slightest idea of what this may mean ? I have tried deactivating all my other plugins to make sure there is no clash but same result. i am using WordPress 3.1.3
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi softinfo. What you’re trying to achieve can be very challenging cause bbPress developers haven’t included such feature in the software. On index.php topics are obtained with get_latest_topics, forums with bb_get_forums.
The current page (for topics) is collected from a $_GET variable called page which have its own rule in the .htaccess which in turn is parsed by bb_get_uri_page (functions.bb-core.php) called from BB_Query::fill_query_vars (yargh).
Now you must do the same thing with forums but in order to do this you must change too many core files and we don’t want our soul damned for eternity.
I don’t have much time at the moment but I can give you some hints.
You need a new page variable that should be different from the default (which is used for posts’ page) together with its own .htaccess rule: RewriteRule ^forum-page/([0-9]+)/?$ /forum/index.php?forum-page=$1 [L,QSA]
You should create a new fake paginate function bb_latest_topics_pages for forums bb_latest_forums_pages, a fake get_page_number_links with /forum-page/%#% instead of /page/%#% and other things here and there.
And last but not least you need a custom query (with a LIMIT) on the $bbdb forum query.
As I said it can be very challenging and there’s room for a very interesting plugin but I don’t write plugins anymore because of the current fragile status of bbPress standalone.
If you will try to write a plugin I will be happy to debug and/or code (a portion of) it.
