I set up a forum for a church website. The forum is private and is only for the parishioners who have registered. When you send out a link to a topic on the forum, you get “No Results Found” if you aren’t logged in. This is big usability issue. People are going to assume there is something wrong with the link rather than realize that they just need to sign-in. How can have it say “you need to login in” rather than say “No Results Found”? Thanks!

I am using Register Plus Redux and i created a custom field for registration page. When people fill in this custom field, i want to display this info under forum role. I searched a bit and i found get_post_meta() but how can i take info from custom field and display in a function?

Hi,
I’m using WP 3.8.1, BbPress 2.5.3 and BuddyPress 1.9.1.
In this integration between bbPress and BuddyPress, in the function bbp_format_buddypress_notifications() located in the file bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/notifications.php, it seems that this function break the filter chain for the filter ‘bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user’, by returning no value if the action is not catched (not being ‘bbp_new_reply’).
It would be great to add at the end of the function : else return $action;
This will prevent the apply_filters_ref_array function in wp-includes/plugin.php to unset the first variable (the $action parameter).

Hey Folks,
we got a forum on our site www.jims-bergwerk.de
For admins the forum is accessable but when a normal user ( subscriber ) wants to access the forum, they are redirected with the following error:

That page can’t be found.
It looks like nothing was found at this location. Maybe try one of the links below or a search?

Is this a setup-problem or a problem with bbpress and the installed plugins?

Hi,

I’m creating a private network where members can remain hidden if they wish, but the forum posts made by them are displaying an IP address for them, which I don’t want.

How can I remove this from the forum posts?

Hi guys,
I’ve added a page ‘/forum’ with the bbpress shortcode. When i visit this page with ‘Forum’, I get this:

This is what i’ve created (with the login widget)

However, when I visit the page by clicking the ‘forum’ text in the breadcrumb, shit I got this page without the login widget:

This is my forum setup:

How do I make sure that the breadcrumb ‘forum’ goes to the page with the login widget?

Thank you!
Jason

Here’s a minor issue I am hoping someone can help me with:

When my forum “Participants” reply to someone in a discussion, you can see the <cite> tags in the quote box. This does not happen when I create a post as the “Keymaster.”

Is this a bbPress issue or a problem with my theme?

Wondering what others do about printing threads. I’m fine just reading the screen, but others might want hardcopy. Is there a way to print the thread easily? I’ve looked at the Print Friendly Plugin, but it’s not integrated with forum software like bbPress so I’ve been told. I could recommend a Print Preview of the forum thread, but thought there would be something akin to the plugin I mentioned which works great on pages.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks to all bbPress team members for creating a fantastic system. It’s a great tool.

The one thing that I needed for a recent project was a way of controlling user and group access to specific forums. Not finding a solution that was simple to deploy in these plugins or forums, I wrote one.

What I would love is to hand it off to someone who is willing to review it, polish it, publish it, and support it.

The methodology is pretty simple. When adding/editing forums, it allows you to choose one or more users who have access, and it controls whether they see it or not by piggybacking on the “post__not_in” and “post_parent__not_in” settings in WP Query.

If you have the very awesome User Groups plugin by Katz Web Services installed, then as a bonus it will detect that and also show an option to choose one or more groups to grant access to.

To-do includes:
– Verify the methodology
– Add filters + actions
– I18N

Post a reply and I can email it to you.

I have tried several times to create my first forum. Every time the same error occurs:-
“You are not allowed to edit this post.”

Huh??
