What does bbp_template_before_forums_loop do?

Published on September 30th, 2014 by connopg

Hi,

I’m trying to change the area above the forum header (.bbp-header) in the loop_forums.php file and can’t seem to see what the line “<?php do_action( ‘bbp_template_before_forums_loop’ ); ?>” refers to to make the changes I need to make.

Can someone explain what this is doing and how I can make the changes?

Thanks

Gareth

log in widget logs in, but forum not reflectin logged in status

Published on September 29th, 2014 by kwkened

Hello,

I’m using a login widget for bbpress. After registration when logging in, when selecting a forum I get a message saying must be loggin in to post topic. I can see however that I’m logged in in the backend. Is there something I’m missing in the configuration that’s causing this odd behavior. Thank you.

No register or login buttons?

Published on September 29th, 2014 by blueberrycove

I’m obviously missing something quite fundemental 🙂
I’ve installed bbpress (WordPress 3.9.2, bbpress 2.5.4), created some forums, and put the forum index on to one of my pages. All of this works fine.
What I don’t have is a login or register button at the top of the forum list? I have a search button but that’s it. It would be handy to have a ‘view profile’ button up there too. How do I get these buttons, is there some extra code I need to add?
Also, which file would I need to change if I wanted to alter the appearance of the forum a little – for example make the font a little larger.

My forum page is here: http://www.blueberrycovebeads.com/forum

Thanks!

Advanced Views

Published on September 29th, 2014 by robsward

How can I create some more advanced views in bbpress– specifically:

1.) All topics on which a user has replied
2.) Topics based on a custom metavalue (ticket assignment user ID)

For #2, I’ve tried adding this to the $args array: 'meta_value' => $current_user->ID, but the query returns nothing.

Thanks in advance!

Old version of Bbpress

I want the old version of the plugin, which is separated by WordPress.

Forum not showing up

Published on September 29th, 2014 by gtmotor

I tried to put my link to the forum (lagizi.com/forums) into a new page but it just doesn’t show anything. I’m using wp 4.0.
What steps needed to fix it?
Thanks

Created Playlist

Does anyone know why when i activate BBPress it makes all of my “Created Playlist” disabled?

[mod – split to a new topic, this has no relation to the one you posted in]

Cannot translate word "TOPICS" on forum list

Published on September 29th, 2014 by 23kulpamens

I cannot translate the word “topics” on forum list. Like here:

View post on imgur.com

This function returns true, so the translation is loaded properly:

// Look in global /wp-content/languages/bbpress folder
load_textdomain( $this->domain, $mofile_global ); 

And I tried to translate those lines, PO edit compiles them to mo properly also:

#: includes/common/template.php:2593
msgid "%s Topics"
msgstr "%s wątki"
#: includes/forums/template.php:1239 includes/forums/template.php:1977
msgid "%s topic"
msgid_plural "%s topics"
msgstr[0] "%s wątek"
msgstr[1] "%s wątki"
msgstr[2] "%s wątków"

Nothing takes any effect. Any idea where I can find these phrases in code? Because I tried to modify phrase “Topics” in files given in PO file (eg.: includes/forums/template.php:1239). But nothing takes effect.

Permissions issue

Published on September 29th, 2014 by michael walker

I’m using WP 4.0 and the current bbpress with a twenty-ten theme. I expect the question I’m going to ask has already been covered by someone, somewhere, but I couldn’t find it – so apologies for that.

My forums are restricted to registered users of my site and, on the site itself, this works very well. A non-user tries to visit a forum and just gets a ‘page npt found’ message. Even if they enter a URL directly into their browser, in the form “http://www.site-name.org.uk/forums/forum/general-chat/” they still can’t access the forum.

The problem is this: This site also maintains a Facebook page, Twitter account and so on. Now, if a poster writes something along the lines of: “All members should read this post on our forums: http://www.site-name.org.uk/forums/topic/postname/”, then anyone clicking on this link will be taken to that post, regardless of whether they are members or whether they are logged-in to WP. And, once in, they can then browse the remaining topics/forums. This is undesirable and I would love to know if there’s away of preventing it. Setting permissions etc within WP seems pointless in this instance, as the visitors concerned are not members/users and are thus unaffected. Any help received with thanks.

Private 'Members Only' Forum (unpaid) with front end user profiles?

Published on September 29th, 2014 by biscuitier0

I have been trying to research the most effective way to achieve the below with a plugin or combination of plugins. Any help would greatly appreciated.

I’m using WordPress 4.0.

  • Website containing a small private forum area that is password protected (forum page displays only a user login panel until you sign in, so non-members will not see any forum content at all).
  • Once logged in the user can both view and post in the forum.
  • Users can be created manually from the back end of the site but would preferably get some kind of front end user profile rather than having access to the WordPress Admin bar.
  • Users can include attachments (.pdf or .doc/.docx) in posts for comment
  • No front end registration as the forum will only be open to a select few
