Warning message in my blog (and I I should contact the bbPress-author)

Published on August 18th, 2013 by Morgensonne

Hallo,

I’ve just installed bbPress.
In my WordPress a warning appears:

Load Behavior: The author used load_textdomain instead of load_plugin_textdomain function. This may change the behavior of WordPress, because some filters and actions now no longer be executed. Please contact therefore the author.

What does the author say?

Different page for creating topic

Published on August 18th, 2013 by wdele

Hello,

I am currently using bbPress for my forum. However, there is one thing I can’t get to work.

I am trying to have a different page for creating a topic. I have the page (/create-topic), but I can’t get to remove the ‘Create topic’ ‘widget’ below a forum.

So… I want a page for creating a topic, and remove the ‘widget’ below every forum.

Whatever I try, I can’t get it to work. I’ve looked everywhere, please help!

Thanks in advance!

Topics marked as spam

Published on August 18th, 2013 by SmileWP

Hello,

I’m a super admin on a new WordPress install with one sub site (the main site).

When I posted to BBPress my post gets this message:

This topic is marked as spam.

…and when I go to Topics there are no topics.

…and I can’t seem to find the Spam folder anywhere to select the topic and tell BBPress that it’s not spam.

I know I’m new but please be patient with me.

Thank you,

Chris

User Profile Url uses the username. Can that be changed?

Published on August 17th, 2013 by J

Hi,

Using bbP 2.3.2 on WP 3.6.

This may seem silly but isn’t using a user’s username (aka their login username) in their public profile url a reduction in security?

In any case, I want to see if there is any possibility to change that. the main reason is that for other reasons we have used people’s email addresses as the usernames when creating accounts. This made some sense at the time but provides an issue where now that we have added bbPress, people’s profile url includes their email address. something most of them will probably not like, and is reduction in security and privacy.

Is there a way to make it something like www.sitename.com/users/firstname_lastname/ instead?

or is there any other ideas as how to solve this dilemma?

Thanks

Conflict On Forums Index Page Links?

Published on August 17th, 2013 by KenTheriot

I just set up my first bbpress forum (WP 3.6 and bbPress 2.3.2). I’m using Genesis with the Eleven40 child theme. I also installed the bbPress Genesis Extend plugin.

For what it is worth, this problem does NOT happen using the Twenty Twelve theme. So it is likely related to the Genesis and Eleven40 child theme combo.

The problem I’m having is that the url “mysite/forums,” leads NOT to the forum index, but instead to a strange page that pulls a graphic from my theme and puts the following text on the page:

“Search for: Living With A Urinary Catheter › Forums Forum Topics Posts Freshness General Discussion Introduce yourself and talk about all things catheter related. 2 2 26 minutes ago Ken Theriot Urethral Strictures And Their Treatments Discussions about urethral strictures, their symptoms, treatments, success rates and surgery recovery. 0 0 No Topics”

Here is a link: http://livingwithacatheter.com/forums/

I have set up a page called “Community Forums” on which I have put the index shortcode, and the link to that, which I have in my NAV menu, works great. It leads here:

Community Forums

It would be an issue except that there is a clickable link in the breadcrumbs that leads to the weird /forums page (Living With A Urinary Catheter › Forums › General Discussion) – the “Forums” part of the breadcrumb path.

Is there a way I can at least correct the link destination of “Forums” in the breadcrumbs?

Thanks!

Ken

Members showing in WordPress but not BBPress forums help

Published on August 17th, 2013 by dice2dice

Hi,

Before installing BBPress I had around 45 members of my site that registered via WordPress.

I’ve had new members since I installed BBPress but only some show up as members. If you browse to the members section of my site it says there are 18 members. There was 16 members this morning and 10 new ones have registered today but they BBPress forums are not counting them as members.

My website is www.whichinvestmenttrust.com If you click on members it states there is 18 but there are a lot more than 18 so why is it counting them up wrong?

I’m stuck. If you have any suggestions or need more information please respond. I’d love to hear from you.

Many thanks, Dice

replies not showing up

Published on August 17th, 2013 by befrea

Hello,

I am using Weaver II theme and latest version of WordPress. Here is the link to the page I am trying to put the forum on.

http://www.stan-mitchell_DOT_net/tech-forum-5/ (CHANGE THE “_DOT_” TO “.”)

I get the forum topics and I can navigate to the topics and I see the blue box saying there is a reply, but I cannot see the replies to any topics. I have deactivated all plugins and changed the theme then changed permalinks and saved then reactivated the weaver theme and reactivated plugins and still the replies do not show. I am a noob here so probably something simple but any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
