Newby a little lost

Published on May 23rd, 2014 by kowarler

I’m working on a test wordpress site for a car club and I’ve tried to add a Forum…

http://thesaabenthusiasts.co.uk/Forum/forum/forum/

Is there anyway of showing the Forum (and it’s topics) on the Forum page, rather than having to click on ‘Forum’ in the Menu, then click on Forum again?

can not manage bbPress after installation

Published on May 23rd, 2014 by yokemate

I have install and activated the bbPress plugin with no issue.

By looking at the All Users, I can see I am an Administrator for Site Role, and Keymaster for Forum Role.

If I log in with another Administrator, and change my role for Forum Role to “No Role for These Forums”, after I log into my account again, I would be able to see 3 menus “Forums”, “Topics”, “Replies” on the admin panel. However, after I click anyone of them, I will be leading to a page with “Cheatin’ uh?” message.

is there anyone has the same issue?

best regards
Hugh

Remove top pagination but keep bottom

Published on May 23rd, 2014 by demonboy

Mildly baffled by this. I’m trying to remove the pagination at the top of the forum topic page but leave it at the bottom (see here for an example). I can remove both by commenting out the code in pagination-topics.php, or I can remove both with display:none, but how do I remove the top one and not the bottom one? They share exactly the same properties.

Thanks,

Jamie

Give bbPress full editor by default?

Published on May 23rd, 2014 by Mycelus

Hey guys. So Ive been wondering this for a long time, and I just dont understand. Why is bbPress’ editor so bad? Everything uses lame tags and is very primitive. WordPress already has color and bold and italic and linking and everything integrated, so why doesn’t bbPress add this?

No one can actually tell me that bbPress is meant to be this way? Is there something stopping the devs from just importing the full editor over…?

Very curious…

$args['include_current'] = false; breadcrumb doesn't work on replies

Published on May 22nd, 2014 by demonboy

I have added this code to my functions.php file

function mycustom_breadcrumb_options() {
	// Home - default = true
	$args['include_home']    = false;
	// Forum root - default = true
	$args['include_root']    = true;
	// Current - default = true
	$args['include_current'] = false;

	return $args;
}

add_filter('bbp_before_get_breadcrumb_parse_args', 'mycustom_breadcrumb_options' );

… but that last argument only works for the original post, which returns something like this:

Forums › Assignment Submissions ›

On the replies underneath it includes the current location, something like this:

Forums › Assignment Submissions › Assignment 24: 1st 24 hours in Crown Point, Tobago

You can see this in action here.

How do I remove that last part in the replies?

Please help me change blue to gray…

Published on May 22nd, 2014 by helmutforren

At http://saveourgrace.com/ I recently activated the “Advantage” them, whose home page is http://www.xinthemes.com/advantage-theme/ . I like it except for one thing. It puts a wavy blue image behind my image. I’d like to have dark gray, matching the menu bar, instead of this image. But I can’t find where the blue is coming from. It does NOT appear to be a theme setting I can change. I can NOT find a clue when looking at the page source while viewing the page. And I have NOT been able to figure it out by viewing the php source.

Meanwhile, I tried to register at xinthemes and use the forum, but it seems that “User registration is currently not allowed”. So I don’t think I’ll get any help there.

OTHERWISE, somebody might suggest yet a different theme. I like this one because the body text is much larger than other themes I’ve looked at. And it has a simple clean image up top with menu, not occupying too much space up top. The only other thing I would ask for is for the top to be an automated image slider rather than randomly selecting, so that when you sit on the page it changes on its own. But I don’t want “More Info” button or anything on the image, just a slide show…

Thanks very much,
Helmut

Notify a bbPress User when their Role has Been Changed

Published on May 22nd, 2014 by NewSha

I want the users to get email alerts every time their forum role changes to a specific role.

Namely, I have to notify them only if their role has changed from Spectator to Participant.

I found a way to do this with standard WordPress roles, but it doesn’t work with bbPress roles.

http://clicknathan.com/web-design/notify-a-wordpress-user-when-their-role-has-been-changed-to-a-specific-role/

I tried changing if ($new_role == 'contributor') to if ($new_role == 'participant') and even to this if ($new_role == 'bbp_participant') – nothing worked.

Perhaps someone knows the solution?

WordPress version: 3.8.2
bbPress version: 2.5.3

Adding forum posts to activity stream…

Published on May 22nd, 2014 by dugfunny

Using this code I have made it to where only updates and rtmedia posts show up on my activity stream

/**
 * Activity Stream Default Updates
 */
function make_swa_show_notice_only( $retval ) {	
	
	 if ( bp_is_page( 'activity' ) ) {
		$retval['action'] = 'activity_update, rtmedia_update';					
	 }
	
	return $retval;
	
}

add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'make_swa_show_notice_only' );

I would like bbpress forum posts to show up on my wall as well. What would i put next to

‘activity_update, rtmedia_update’

in my code to make that happen? Thanks!
