bbPress.org

I am in includes/common/template-tags.php

I see

/** URLs **********************************************************************/

/**
 * Ouput the forum URL
 *
 * @since bbPress (r3979)
 *
 * @uses bbp_get_forums_url() To get the forums URL
 * @param string $path Additional path with leading slash
 */
function bbp_forums_url( $path = '/' ) {
	echo bbp_get_forums_url( $path );
}
	/**
	 * Return the forum URL
	 *
	 * @since bbPress (r3979)
	 *
	 * @uses home_url() To get the home URL
	 * @uses bbp_get_root_slug() To get the forum root location
	 * @param string $path Additional path with leading slash
	 */
	function bbp_get_forums_url( $path = '/' ) {
		return home_url( bbp_get_root_slug() . $path );
	}

/**
 * Ouput the forum URL
 *
 * @since bbPress (r3979)
 *
 * @uses bbp_get_topics_url() To get the topics URL
 * @param string $path Additional path with leading slash
 */
function bbp_topics_url( $path = '/' ) {
	echo bbp_get_topics_url( $path );
}
	/**
	 * Return the forum URL
	 *
	 * @since bbPress (r3979)
	 *
	 * @uses home_url() To get the home URL
	 * @uses bbp_get_topic_archive_slug() To get the topics archive location
	 * @param string $path Additional path with leading slash
	 * @return The URL to the topics archive
	 */
	function bbp_get_topics_url( $path = '/' ) {
		return home_url( bbp_get_topic_archive_slug() . $path );
	}

I figure there MUST be a way to add the forum to the topics URL. I’m doing this because I have a action based upon the URL string and need to have all things on that forum associated with that at a URL level. Any ideas?

Good day!

I’m unable to create group forum from the buddypress group admin page. Below it says “Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /home/stigafnx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/group.php on line 308”

I have disabled buddypress own forum, and also choosen Group Forums Parent.

Can you please advice?

Thank you

I am using the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress. After I installed my bbpress, created categories and forum and created a link to the index it won’t move up or down. I click on the link and it takes my to a page that doesn’t have a bbpress sidebar but it has a wordpress sidebar. I can’t move up or down in my forum. I read somewhere that my theme may not be compatible with bbpress WP Tweaks. Also, not all of my forum is showing. Where it say freshness is being squeezed to the left of my screen. How can I get all of my forum to show up on one page,how can I get my forum to move up and down and is there a way to have my forum show up in a separate window or page. In otherwords, I don’t want my wordpress sidebar to show up on my bbpress forum page.

What is the intended display order for forums, and how am I supposed to be able to adjust it?

At the moment it appears to be Hidden > Private > Public, and beyond that each is sorted within those categories by the date the forum was published… however, one cannot change the published date of a forum, therefore one has no control over the order forums are displayed in.

Is forum order not a supported feature, one must simply live with whatever order the forums were published in, or am I missing something?

Additionally, is there any way to adjust where private/hidden forums appear relative to public? I’d like them to go at the bottom, not the top.

BBpress has reduced the text editor to a minimal one that is really sub-par, in my opinion. I would really like to use something like a TinyMCE version that works for all of the users. There is this one, set up for bbpress, but only authors and above see it: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/

We are an arts org and we need to have good ways to share visual content. I loaded GD BBPress Attachments which is fine for uploading images and docs, but you can’t insert them into the text: http://www.dev4press.com/plugin/gd-bbpress-attachments/

I found this one: http://premiumsoftware.net/CLEditor/Index, but it’s not as nice as the TinyMCE ones that I’ve used and it shows the bbpress one (the minimal one) right above it, so that is confusing, too. Do you have any recommendations of what would work well for us?

We’re using the latest updates of bbPress, etc.

I’m pretty savvy (even though I don’t write code) and I don’t even know what “ol” means, much less the other artists who are using our forum…

I have a problem and I don’t know if it is related to BuddyPress or BBPress and it’s made it very confusing for our users. The same thread shows up in the three pages: Activity Streams, Group Home Page and Group Forum Page. I have deactivated the sitewide Forums as I think it is confusing enough without it. So, we are focusing on having Group topics and discussing within them. But, because the thread shows up in all three places and can be replied to in any of them, one would think that the replies would follow through on all of the pages where the thread is displayed.

I think that this might have something to do with nested replies. They show up on the Activity Streams (if one replies on that page) and on the Group Home page, but they don’t follow through on the forum. You can see it here: http://www.tafaforum.com/user-groups/blogging-general/ Members are supposed to register their blogs on the Topic page of the forum: http://www.tafaforum.com/user-groups/blogging-general/forum/topic/register-your-blog-here/ Most did not understand that they should go to their page and just added their blogs to the Home page of that group. I replied with “Added” for the ones that I added to the RSS Feed (http://www.tafaforum.com/tafamemberblogs/) But, my “Added” reply does not show up on the Forum Topic version of the same thread.

Any suggestions on how to deal with this? It makes things very confusing.

I don’t want to mess with code so if you have suggestions, please make them for what can be done within the BBPress or BuddyPress options….

I’ve been digging around in the code and it seem like it’s impossible to make a user type that can view a forum but not post in it. Am I missing something?

It seems like a user’s ability to post/reply is global. Is there any way to quickly accomplish this?

My goal:

A user type that can view public and private forums, but only post in public.

I was originally attempting to add a new forum type, but quickly realized it was out of scope for the timeframe I’m looking to accomplish this in. That said, regardless of whether or not I add a new forum type, or repurpose existing types, I’m at a brick wall if there’s no way to check posting privileges in an individual forum. Has anyone tackled this issue already? I love the simplicity of bbPress and really want to avoid having to use a more fleshed out forum package, but this is a very necessary feature.

Days have gone without any admin addressing, well, anything, and even more days allowing spam to clutter the forum. If you’re going to let bbPress die, at least have the good nature to let everyone know. In the meantime, hello Vanilla ~

Hi

I’ve got a problem with custom functions. I would like to modify tag link, but I can’t find proper file to put add_filter in. I tried functions.php in the:
template directory, bbpress/, bbp-themes-compat/, bbp-themes/, bbp-twentyten/, but with no luck. I also created my-plugins/plugin.php but where do I find that plugin in the wordpress admin menu?

Second question: is that bbp_get_tag_link or something else? I can’t find proper documentation for that.

I have Mystique theme 3.3.2 and I wanted to install bbpress on my site http://nikolaandi.com/

When I created a forum in bbpress, it just shows blank page. Is this an issue with bbpress compatability on the theme? I have bbpress 2.3.2.

Thanks
