WordPress 4.0.1 running Tempera theme.
bbPress Forum

I have all of my sub forums sitting in a master forum on my site. At the end of the page there is
Oh bother! No topics were found here!

I don’t want to have any topics for the master forum. It’s only purpose is to house the sub forums.
It’s status is closed, but Oh Bother still appears.

I have searched here but failed to find a solution.

I would be grateful for any help in removing this from the Forum.

Here is the forum. it’s still under construction.

Hello,

I recently started to use bbPress v 2.5.4 with WP v 4.0.1.
Everything worked fine until I changed the user_login in of a user in the mySQL database, who had the bbPress moderator-role and started two forums before.
Now this user (and every other „moderator“) can´t see the menu-item „forum“ in the Dashboard anymore. Any other bbPress-role works like it should.
As a workaround I created a testpage with the shortcode

and tried to start a new forum as „moderator“. It worked, but I only could start a child-forum under an existing parent. So the „keymaster“ has to change it to „parent“ everytime a „moderator“ starts a new forum.
That´s a wortkaround but not a solution.

I found a post here in the forum https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/moderator-role-cant-create-or-manage-forums/, where you speak of a known issue, that a moderator can´t see the „forum“ menu in the dashboard anymore. The problem described there seems to be quite similar to mine but is 1 year old. So, is this issue solved in the meantime? And if not, perhaps my problem helps to address the issue.

Thanks for any assistance.

I’ve searched these forums and found mostly technical replies from developers (I’m semi-technical so making up some code from scratch and knowing where to stick it is out of my league).

I’ve tried “Everything Search” which does not index topics.

I’ve tried free “Relevanssi” search which has a check-box for tpics but shows them as “not public” (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-relevanssi-search-include-bbpress-forms-topics-and-replies?replies=3)

I’ve tried various snippets that I found via google search – each with additions to functions.php a couple don’t work, and a third actually works, but it blanks-out the topic pages (the page is still there but the text of the topic and replies is missing).

I’ve enabled Jetpack “omnisearch” which has no options but still doesn’t show the topics in the search results.

Please point me to where I can find information to modify my WordPress, Theme, or BBPress installation so that search results from the main form include topics!!!

Thank you!!!

P.S. My website http://www.hippressurecooking.com – I have lots of forum topics discussing Christmas Puddings but if you search for “pudding” on the main website all you get is the posts & pages with the word “pudding” and none of the topics with valuable info.

P.P.S. I have search enabled in the forums, but in addition to that I would like the results all in one place from the basic WordPress search that shows up on every page.

Hi again, I have been working on my theme for a long time now, here are a few images of where I am with my forum and topic lists, as well as the individual topics/posts and the integrated “like” system.

The forum-list loop

The topic-list loop

The forums on profile pages

A lot of plugins used to get all functionality, but starting to look like a nice forum to me.

I hope to be able to post some updates soon.

Hi, I just got my website installed yesterday and am in the process of setting up my forums. The issue I’ve ran into is that the sub-forums are not displaying the way I want them to. Currently they are displaying as a list separated by commas, however, I would like them to each have their own row and be listed similarly to bullet points (just without actual bullet points). I’ll provide a link to my forums here:http://forgehaven.com/forums/

Additionally, it would really awesome if where it says “Forum” in the grey row, I could change it to say Level Design. Then remove the Level Design forum below (since it’s really just a category) and just list the 4 sub-forums as a bullet list.

A great example of how I want it is this forum: http://teambeyond.net/forum/

I’m new to this so hopefully what I’m requesting makes sense. Please let me know if you need further information. Also, I’m not sure it this is in the correct forum, but it seems to make the most sense.

Thanks,

Skisma

I am looking for a way to block Participant user level to create new topics in the Forum but allow replies on the topics.

I tried a plugin called bbPress Protected Forums(https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-protected-forums/) but it doesn’t seem to work probably because it hasn’t been updated since long.

I will really like some quick help on this

WordPress version: 4.0
bbpress version: 2.5.4

I had to manually add a link in the site menu for the main forum page/section.
The individual sub-forums generated menu items – I don’t want those in the main site menu.

That seems incorrect – no menu item for the forum section?

– WP 4.1/bbPress 2.5.4
– MultiSite install
– MultiSite sub-site is dedicated to bbPress
– I have used the generic twenty fourteen, and other themes.

I am new to this plugin and to running a forum. I am just a volunteer English teacher obsessed with WP.
My user count will be microscopic, a handful of people. (my ESL students)
Many of my users will not have email addresses, have not ever used PCs and do not have PCs at home – experience has shown me it is impractical to provide email initially.

Is there an option to register users without email addresses?
If I leave the forums open without registration – what are the potential issues, security or otherwise? If any?

(I do not know how to set up any WP registrations anyway!)
– WP 4.1/bbPress 2.5.4. MultiSite install.
– I have dedicated a MultiSite subsite to bbPress.
– I have Askimet and Conditional CAPTCHA https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-conditional-captcha/

Any suggestions or input about plugins, if this is a bad idea, etc. will be appreciated.

It is time for THAT TALK. Do not reject it – but seriously engage in this discussion. The standard and very understandable answer of not commenting and so on – just doesnt cut it anymore.

I want to ask politely and with full respect to the developers, what we as users of bbpress should expect in the future. Is there going to be development of bbPress so it becomes something useable as actual forum software with nodal, finegrained permissions and serious security and SPEED.

Looking at TRAC, it is not reasonable to call this project under active development. So, to the devs I want to politely ask:

Explain to me what to realistically expect, given the past development non-activity ? What should I expect ?

Thanks.
