Hi friends-
I’ve been using iframes to embed pages on my blog from time to time and not only do I not love the look, but I’ve recently noticed some conversations about some sites having objections to this application.
Does anyone know if there’s code I can use on my WP blog that looks like the FB page links, where it shows a relevant image from the page and the article headline?
Just to be clear, this is for use on my WP bbPress blog, using an OptimizePress theme – not for a Facebook page… I asked on another forum and had no luck.
Thanks in advance – grateful for your wisdom and experience!
Matthew
Hi guys,
What’s the best way to pre-populate the topic’s text area with the @username of the person you’re replying to?
When you currently hit “reply” to a forum entry, it takes you to the text box, but you still have to copy + paste the user’s @username if you want to tag them in the reply (or type manually). Not user-friendly.
Suggestions?

This is unrelated but seriously, how do I open a support ticket for bbpress forum plugin? I’ve gone to the core wordpress site and this site doesn’t give me an option to start a thread.
Please help.
I want to keep site members who are spectators from seeing private forums (normally visible to anyone logged in. Participants should be able to see and post to private forums.
I suspect this will require a very small amount of code, so I don’t want to use an overkill plugin. I’ve been searching for 2 days to find a plugin that can do this and I’ve failed miserably.
Would some kind guru help me to code this?
How can I place an image before the forum title? In this case (http://www.manupmyhealth.com/forums/forum/fuel-forum/) the title is “Fuel Forum” at the top. I found this url (http://www.kristarella.com/2013/04/bbpress-forum-icons/) that helps me place an image for each forum in the forum index page, but need the hook name to place the image in the forum page. Thanks.
hi,
im using bbpress on my website, but we have an issue with editing function.
In facts we are able to edit topics, but when we want to edit replies we obtained :
/* <div class=”extra-wrap”>
<h2 class=”entry-title”>
<div class=”entry-content”> Home › Forums › W3Community › TOUT SUR W3COMMUNITY › test › Répondre à: test 26 mars 2014 at 18 h 42 min #2892 Édit | Move | Diviser | trash | Spam | reply Xn2-testParticipant () Messages 2 blablabla </div>
<div class=”postmeta”>
</div> */
No editing windows only text and 2 links (read more and edit)
We dont understand why its doing that :/
I’m currently getting some weird redirect from one specific group’s home to the group’s forum. Ie. domain.com/groups/specificgroup/ redirects to domain.com/groups/specificgroup/forum
I have a total of 9 groups and it is only ONE (newest) group doing this. If I deactivate bbPress I am able to access the group’s home. If I create new groups with forums I get the redirect too.
bbPress 2.5.3
BuddyPress 1.9.2
WP 3.8.1
Hi everyone, this is my first time posting, and I really dig BBPress so far.
I’m running WP v3.8.1 with BBPress 2.5.3. I’ve encountered a problem when converting a custom MYSQL database into BBPress. I have successfully exported a Lotus Notes / Domino DB (yes, it still exists…) into a simple MySQL DB containing just 3 tables.
After a “successful” conversion (of over 35K forums, topics and replies) into BBPress, I can see all of the Forums, Topics, and Replies listed in the BBPress Admin panel. However, there seems to be issues with the Foreign Keys being imported/linked, even though I have double and triple checked the forum_id, topic_id values for the Topics->Forums and Replies->Topics relationships within the Example.php converter included with BBPress. All data has been properly formatted into WordPress friendly values (dates, slugs, etc..) before importing into MySQL.
In the admin panel, under Forums, it lists all forums in their hierarchical order, as expected. It also lists the topic and reply counts, date, and creator next to each parent / child forum. However, under “Freshness” is says “No Topics”. The Topics Admin page is even more intriguing; it lists all of the Topic Titles, the Forum title which that topic is assigned to (!), reply count, author, creation date, and freshness. Browsing to the Replies Admin page lists all reply titles, author, and creation date, however under Forum it says “No Forum” and under Topic it says “No Topic”.
When you browse to the forums (mysite.local/forums/forum/the-forum), the forum title and child-forums are displayed, along with topic and reply counts for each child. However, under “Freshness”, it says “No Topics”. When I browse to a child forum, it lists the topic and reply counts, however it says “No Topics were found”.
When I browse to a topic (mysite.local/forums/topic/the-topic), I see the date, title, content, and reply count. However, there are no replies listed.
When I browse to a reply (by clicking “View” under the reply listed in the Admin Replies page), it directs me to http://mysite.dev/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=reply/#post-######, saying “Invalid Post Type”.
I figured this would be rather straightforward, since I am not importing Users or Tags. Eventually I would like all authors to be “Archived Author”, should I try to tackle this now or after a fully successful import?
I can supply screen shots, converter output (which really says nothing unexpected), or the full source code for the converter if needed. I’ve included my table structure and simplified converter code for reference.
I hope that someone with a bit more experience converting forums for BBPress will be able to shed some light on this, my forehead is really starting to hurt from banging my head against the wall. It seems there is very limited information out there on this converter. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!
My tables to import/convert are laid out as follows:
forums table {
forum_id PRIMARY KEY INT(11)
title
slug
parent_id (Self referencing FK)
last_mod (DATETIME)
num_topics
num_replies
}
topics table {
topic_id PRIMARY KEY INT(11)
parent_id FK (set to 0 for no parent)
forum_id FK (matches corresponding <code>forums</code>.forum_id)
subject (title)
slug (slug of title)
body (the post content)
from
date
date_gmt
num_replies
}
replies table {
reply_id PRIMARY KEY INT(11)
topic_id FK INT(11) (matches corresponding <code>topics</code>.topic_id)
forum_id FK INT (11) (matches corresponding <code>forums</code>.forum_id)
date
date_gmt
subject
body
}
And now, here’s the converter I’m using (starting at the Forum section Line#26 of /plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/converters/Example.php). I’ve removed commented lines for brevity.
