I’m not sure why but on my forums there is a ” # ” symbol that is a permanent link to each forum. How can I get rid of this?

Thanks

I can’t get the correct widgets to show on my main forum page.

All the other forum pages are listing the widgets correctly, except the main forum page. Any suggestions?

Currently on WordPress 3.9.1, the latest bbPress version. Link to site – afc1903.co.uk (note the site actually launches tomorrow evening (5th June 2014 at 7.30pm GMT)

Hello everyone,
I’ve noticed that in the forum of my website, the dates of the posts keep getting confused.

The timezone of my site is set to GMT+1, which is where me, the admin, is.
However because of that, all the comments are getting mixed up due to the different timezones of the authors.

I tried changing the time zone but nothing happened.

Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?

Thanks in advance!

I recently installed the eMember plugin (from Tips and Tricks HQ) and have been running bbPress and the Royal Slider slideshow plugin on my site. When all three plugins are running, however, my home page slideshow stops working. I contacted Royal Slider about the issue and they got back to me saying there is a JS error that is blocking the execution of the slideshow-and the source of it was bbPress.

My site: dev.detoxtheworld.com
Wordpress version 3.8.1
Running bbPress version 2.5.3
I’ve tested the problem using a default theme and it still occurs.

Here is the script from which the conflict originates: http://dev.detoxtheworld.com/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/js/editor.js

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.5.3/templates/default/js/editor.js

Can anyone tell me what the problem might be and, even better, how to fix it?

Mod Edit: I removed the code and added a link to the source for improved readability.

I’ve set the ‘Allow guest users without accounts to create topics and replies’ option, but unregistered users still get the message:
‘You must be logged in to create new topics’…

Any ideas?

Tnx

Couple of issues… I’m not sure what version of wordpress is being run (as ridiculous as this sounds. I came in halfway on a project, and another developer I got to look at the site also could not tell me), but it is something before 3.8. The bbPress version is 2.4.1. Site only shows a splash page to non-members, and registration is blocked, so a link to it would be pointless.

1) Hitting “Edit” on a topic as administrator puts the HTML for the editor into the text box of an editor. If I hit “submit” without changing the contents, it edits the topic, but includes the edit form in the topic. Here is a screenshot. Clicking on submit in the resulting form within the topic does the edit as it should. I am not sure if this happens for regular members… see issue 3.

2) Clicking “Edit” on a reply results in the following message:
“There’s nothing here.

If there were posts in the database, you’d be seeing them. Try creating a post, and see if that solves your problem.”
When I go to the dashboard > replies, I can clearly see all the replies listed there.

3) I realize this is a known issue, but I could not find a good resolution for my case. Topics are not viewable by regular members, but all replies are viewable. Anyone with bbPress moderator role and above can view topics just fine. s2member is being run on the site, and from what I understand, s2member admins get bbPress moderator roles, while bbPress moderators get s2member admin roles. I have tried disactivating the s2member plugin, and the topics show up fine then. I can’t ditch s2member, but obviously am not going to give every member admin/moderator roles just so they can see topics. In fact, every member should only be a participant. There should never be any need for moderators (save for the actual admin). I’ve checked visibility on the forums, and everything is set to public.

Hey Everyone,

We migrated from Simple:Press today to bbPress and so far all is well after a little cleanup, but now I am noticing that we are experiencing issues with permissions within the roles and capabilities. We have 2 tiers of registered users which are our members and our officers. With this we have 2 seperate categories and forums within them with members only being able to see/edit the members forum and officers being able to see/edit the members forum and the officers forum.

According to here on bbPress, this should be possible as our “members” role would have the “read_private_forums” capability assigned to it and our “officers” role would have that capability as well as the “read_hidden_forums” capability assigned to it. Unfortunately…this is not working properly, our “members” role is not able to view there forum, so in the mean time, I’ve enabled the “read_hidden_forums” capability per and that seems to have “solved” the issue, however now there is no way to restrict access to the officers forum (Which I’ve temporarily deleted until this can be resolved).

Any help/input/ideas would be appreciated. This should work from what I am reading, so not sure why.

Thank you!

I am getting a “This user has not created any topics” message even though the user has definitely created topics.

Hi there I was wondering if someone could help me, I can’t seem to find the solution.

I have some private forums that only certain members have access to. People who do not have permission to these forums have been using the Date of the freshness link to get into these private forums and I was looking for a way to display the freshness date but as text only, i.e not linking to the forum

When I change a users forum status to moderator their account disappears from the users list. I can still see their previous posts in the forums. Do they just disappear until they login again?
