Hi, in my bbpress I have some main forums redirected to other pages. In the main page, I can see in those forum titles that it shows up (in spanish) “0 debates”, “0 mensajes” and “Sin Hilos”. Since those forums are not set to reply, or create topics etc… I don’t want that info showing up in those exact forum titles. Is there a way to achieve that?

You can see the forum here. I have that problem with the first four forums.

Thank’s for your help.

This is an odd one. I can open Replies in the dashboard to edit them.

But when I open Topics it shows the posting details across the top of the Topic. But below that jammed up against the left side of the topic window are nonsense characters and the rest of the window is blank. I can select a topic and then from the top, select Edit and Apply. I will see just the title of the topic, but the content will be blank.

I can post a new topic in the forum and it will display fine, but when I view it in Topics in the dashboard, it displays the same gobbledygook.

Honestly, I haven’t been into the dashboard to look since the upgrade. Are others experiencing the same thing?
Thanks, matoca

I have a PHP site www.stemcellcure.in and www.cellmedicaltourism.com . I want to add forums and comment functionality to my websites. Can bbPress be used for these sites?

Hi,

I’m running WP 3.8 with BuddyPress 1.9 and bbPress 2.5.1.

I’m writing my own theme and I want to create a new WP user role, “Special Admin” which is a normal admin user but with restrictions that I’ve manually applied in my theme functions.php.

What I now need to do is to give that user the KeyMaster rights for bbPress, but I can’t see how to do that.

My site actually comprises 3 themes, and this user will use all 3, so to avoid code repetition I’m setting up the rights in a bespoke plugin I’m writing.

I thought from reading the bbPress source that I could use the filter bbp_get_user_role_map to add. Here’s the code I’m trying:

// Give the Special Administrator the Keymaster capabilities.

add_filter('bbp_get_user_role_map', 'add_keymaster_to_special_administrator');

function add_keymaster_to_special_administrator($role_map){
    $role_map['special_administrator'] = bbp_get_keymaster_role();

    return $role_map;
}

The problem is that the filter is never processed – I’ve thrown a die in there to check and it’s not being executed.

Can anyone tell me what I’m missing?

hi guys what code do i need to modify users profile url?

i just need to change the format to point to:

http://mydomain.com/membership-services/view-profile/username

wouldn’t have thought it be difficult to change but been at it over 6hrs… cant find where or what changes to make, searched google and forums and see other people asking but nothing resolved…

thanks in advance for any guidance

Installed bbPress on a Gabfire premium theme but while the text area is there it is not defined by a keyline and hence is not obvious.

The problem repeats with Twenty Fourteen albeit not so badly as the keyline for the text area appears in Twenty Fourteen when I hover. I’m sure this is a stylesheet issue but I cannot work out what I need to do to correct it.

As an example see:

Hi,

I’m unable to restore a trashed topic. It just says: “Are you sure you want to do this?

Please try again.” linking back to the All Topics list…

This is on the main site of a multisite where I use the Super Admin account to restore a trashed topic that was started/owned by the site admin (not super admin).

How do I restore a trashed topic?

Hi,

Whenever I edit a topic that is set to Closed status, the save button says “Publish” isntead of the expected “Update” and after saving, the topic suddenly has status Open.

Is this by design or a bug?

I originally posted this on the BuddyPress forum, It was suggested that I might have better luck getting an answer here. My apologies if this is redundant to some.

I have the legacy forums set up on my site, barronsquare.org. I want to move up to bbPress. I especially want the “Follow this topic” notifications and reply ‘threading’.

• Running WP v3.7.1, BP v1.9, Suffusion child theme with Suffusion BuddyPress Pack
• ‘Public’ portion visible to users who are not members
• ‘Private’ portion for members only.
• “All Residents” GROUP with auto join for all MEMBERS with forums.
• Several other smaller sub-groups with forums.
• Forums are not public.

Tried the upgrade to bbPress 2.2 (with Suffusion bbPress Pack) on my WAMP localserver version of site and had all kinds of problems migrating content, etc. Many of the data ‘repair’ functions failed. I could not get the ‘threaded replies to work. Eventually got the forums to mostly work, but still have questions.

1. Would I be better with a ‘site-wide’ forum rather than the private All Residents group?
2. Can I make a site-wide forum private?
3. How do I modify the formatting of the forum postings?
4. Where do I look to troubleshoot the ‘threading’ function?

Happy Holidays to all.

Hi,

A weird thing is happening on the main site of my WordPress Multisite installation where bbPress is used for the support pages.

The forum plugin was activated with the main Super User account (with ID #1) on the main site. Forums where created without problems and the user got Key Master role.

But since then, that super user has been replaced by another account promoted to Super User. The account with ID #1 has been ‘demoted’ to site admin on the primary site where it is now used only for publication of pages and posts. That account visibly still has Key Master role for the forums but…

When logged in with that account, none of the forum admin pages are accessible.

What is going wrong? How can I use a normal site admin to manage forums and topics. I’d like to prevent usage of the Super User account for public type actions like posting and the like…
