Hi all

I have bbpress all installed and everything seems to be working fine.

I currentlt have 3 forums and about 200 users that have aacess to all forums

I’d like to create a new forum that is only accessible to some users

Is it possible to a have a forum only visible to certain users.

I currently have a forum index like

Forum 1
Forum 2
Forum 3

This is visible to all users

I would like some users to see

Forum 1
Forum 2
Forum 3
Forum 4 – Private

Is this possible

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.

Deactivating all plugins made no difference., also changing the capabilities with “bbPress Advanced Capabilities”.

I found a post here in the forum “Moderator role can’t 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 it.

Thanks for any assistance.

Hi, I’ve changed the background color in my bbpress forum but for some reason the background color is not affecting the padding (or so it seems). I’ve searched online and found I may need to add overflow:hidden and even overflow:auto. I’ve tried to add this to many many variations and combinations of IDs and CLASSes (there are so many!) but I can’t figure it out.

I’m using a child theme from the 2014 WordPress theme but didn’t change too much.

My forum is at: http://www.pippenings.com/rv-living/rv-motorhome-life-forum/

Here is the CSS styling I’ve added to the forum so far (minus the child theme’s styling which was mostly used for changing colors…)

Can you please help me out?

#forums-list-0 .bbp-forum-title {
	font-size:1.6em;
	text-decoration:none;
}

#forums-list-0 .bbp-forum-title a:link {
	text-decoration:none;
}

#entry-content #bbpress-forums {
	background-color:#232d36;
	overflow:auto;

}

#bbpress-forums ul, #bbpress-forums li {
	background-color:#232d36;
		overflow:auto;

}

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies, bbp-body, #bbpress-forums p {
	background-color:#232d36;
}
#bbpress-forums ul.forums-list-0 li.bbp-body {
	background-color:#232d36 !important;
		overflow:auto;
}

Very strange! I was setting up my new forum (newest WP, newest bbpress) and the subforum pages are looking just fine. Also the topic pages looked good – until recently. Now, the topic page is only displaying the core content (starting with the breadcrumb-path of the forum topic), but no design at all!

When I look at the sourcecode of a topic page, it starts like this:

<div id="bbpress-forums">
<div class="bbp-breadcrumb">

Where is all the beginning of the page, with the usual html elements for the page design?

I activated another theme and it has the same problem.
Do I have to reinstall bbpress?

Unfortunately, I cannot post a link here, the forum is only visible for logged-in users.

Thanks for any help!

Nothing is broken. I do not know what I am doing. Documentation is not helpful.

I dedicated a MultiSite subsite to the forum. WP 4.1/BBPress 2.5.4
I have never set up registration/login on any of my sites.
I do not want the site to require a login.

1.) I have no idea how to set up the forum logging in, at all.
2.) Many of my users do not have email accounts. How can they register?

Any input or direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Is it possible to reverse the order of how the attachments are displayed so that they are displayed in the same order as they are selected/uploaded? Currently, attachments are displayed in reverse order, meaning that the first file I select to upload is actually shown as the last attachment, when it should be the first.

Hi, my needs are pretty simple. I’m looking for an alternative to google groups. I need a place in my WordPress site where only members can post and only members can read the posts. And I need a way for members to receive one email each time there is a new post. There needs to be an archive that members can consult to dig around and find a particular post from the past.

I have had various frustrations with google groups and yahoo groups. In theory the way they work would suit our group just fine, but in practice, there have been some problems, so now it’s time to look for an alternative.

As you can see, I don’t need to do anything fancy. My question is, shall I install the Private Groups plugin, the bbpress plugin, or both?

Thank you.

Hi, I tried to file that on trac, but it seems not working today… anyway the issue is very simple. When notifications are sent, the from email address is composed as:

$do_not_reply = ‘<noreply@’ . ltrim( get_home_url(), ‘^(http|https)://’ ) . ‘>’;

but for blogs installed in subdirs that creates wrong email address. It should be better to follow the technique used by WordPress, which extracts the domain name and uses and address wordpress@mydomain.com.

More, some providers does not allow emails from unknown mailboxes and blog owners are used to register a mailbox for “wordpress”, so it should be better to use that address, or let to specify a different one.

Thank you, Stefano.

I’m trying to integrate bbPress with Jetpack Markdown.

The problem I’m having is the formatting of the saved data.

If I leave bbPress as is.The fenced code blocks with the three back-ticks get all screwy. I’ve found this is because of the bbp_code_trick() function on the bbp_new_reply_pre_content filter.

If I remove that filter the fenced code block works, but the inline code doesn’t. Somewhere the & character is being escaped to & and messing everything up. For instance, instead of < it ends up being saved to the database as &<. I cannot find where this is happening.

I have a new forum, for recorder players. Older folk mostly, feedback indicates a larger font is needed.

I’m running WP 4.0.1, bbPress 2.5.4, and BuddyPress 2.1.1. Everythig is working nicely, the forum is at http://recorderforum.com/forum/ I’m using the mysitemyway Elegance theme

Looking at a previous bbPress forum post, I was able to increase Forum and Topic font size with the following CSS

#bbpress-forums a.bbp-forum-title,
#bbpress-forums a.bbp-topic-permalink {
font-size: 16px;
}

Using the same method, I’d like to increase the font size for

– Forum posts/replies
– Breadcrumbs

Any pointers gratefully received.
