How to add a @username like BBPress forum(this), see example in red bracket.
How to change the user role from Words to image?

Example:

Hi,

I have a site with bbPress intalled. I have set the New User Default role in Setting/General to a Custom Role that I made. in bbPress setting, the default role is “Participant”.

The issue is when a new user created their Site role auto set to “Participant”. does anyone know, how to fix this so that new user will have site role as the value set in Setting/General?

Hi There, Got a kind of weird thing going on. My forum is here: http://sydneymovingguide.com/forums/. I admit straight off that I did mess with the CSS to make the font larger and change colours but, as far as I can tell, the CSS file looks fine.

The forum is functional when a user is not logged in but when they do, it loses the CSS all together. I’m not sure why being logged in causes this.

The forum has been fine and functioning for about 3 months. I did update my Genesis theme today then had to go back to the older version because I was getting a 500 Error Page when loading the forum url. My host company uploaded the older version saved from 12 hours ago.

Would really appreciate it if someone can take a look. I’m pretty sure it’s an easy fix, totally user error.

Thanks in advance for any help.
Cheers.
Lauren

I just noticed that my topic permalinks are getting the category and forum slugs prepended to them domain.com/forums/topic/category-slug/forum-slug/topic-slug/

This is producing a 404, However domain.com/forums/topic/topic-slug/ works fine… why is it injecting these other slugs into my permalinks?

Hi! I have a little problem, my page is http://mutriku-gaming.com/wordpress/forums/ if you enter you will see that name of forums is not a “Foros”(Forums in spanish) is a title of the blog post.

I have installed a forum-loop.php but I don´t think that’s it.

Thanks

Hi, I’ve created a number of forums within a bbPress forum. When a new topic is posted inside a forum on a web page it doesn’t appear in that forum although it does appear in the topics list in the dashboard…

In order to get the topic to appear in the correct forum it has to be set manually in the dashboard.

Why is this happening?

I first installed bbpress for the forums to be on a discussion page of my website. Not for the entire website to be forums. Everything seemed to be working fine, but people can’t comment on the topics. After researching more I installed buddypress too, and now i’m more confused because its a whole different look and now there is no forums. I think i’m going to deactivate it for the moment.

But how do I get bbpress to let people comment on the topics? It lets people create topics, but thats about it.

Please help!!!!

Hi,

After reading the importer
I’ve recently migrated my phpBB forum to bbPress, but I have noted a few issues with the import/repair process. Does anybody have any suggestions as to what’s going wrong with any/all of these:

Forum import – The documentation states that stickies will not be imported, however I after doing the import I have around 20 ‘super-stickies’ which, looking at the old forum, are a mixture of announcements and stickies. I’d rather these weren’t converted to anything, and as far as I’m aware they shouldn’t be (https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2126)

User import – During the import, I (the main WordPress admin user) seem to have had quite a lot of forums, topics and replies linked to my user. I wasn’t a user on the previous phpBB forum at all so I’m not sure why I’ve adopted these posts. Or any posts for that matter.

Repair tools – All the repair tasks seem to work ok, except for two:
– Recalculate the position of each reply
– Remap existing users to default forum roles
These two tasks end up white-screening with no status messages at all.

User Login Conversion – User logins are converted correctly when using the standard wordpress login screen but now when using my custom frontend ajax login – does anyone know if there’s a way to get that to work? A seperate topic has been started about that here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/user-login-authentication-migrated-phpbb-users/

Any advice on any of these steps would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
I’m very new to both WordPress and bbPress, so my apologies if this is a very easy problem to resolve!

Whilst poking about trying figure stuff out in the bbpress/includes/admin/functions.php, I received the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in /home/content/65/5240765/html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/functions.php on line 303

I’ve checked through the code to try and find the ‘}’ but couldn’t spot it (there is no line 303 – it only goes up to 294), and tried to fix it by replacing the wrong code with the original code but it still gives the same error. I’m not entirely sure what I’ve done even after extensive google/forum searches, so I’ve copied the code into paste bin in case anyone can help me out.

The website doesn’t appear to be broken from the front end in any way, it’s just the back end that’s messed up.

I’m using WordPress vers 3.9.1 and bbPress vers 2.5.4, the theme is BigFeature.

Thanks in advance!

Dear John,

Can you help me for resolve it?

At bottom of this website http://www.zroor.com/ there is a forum list widget.
Click on last two forums, i) Site Announcements ii) Help & Suggestion

Is it possible to restrict these both forum to appear in this widget and show its only child category?
