Hi. I’m setting up a fitness site with a forum and I’d like each member to be able to have their own ‘Training Log’ area in the forum, i.e. they start a post called “Jim’s Training Log”, and only they and I (forum owner) can post, or potentially the user can specify whether other forum members can view/comment on the post. Is this possible in bbpress? Is it as simple as each user starting a new post in the ‘Training Log’ category, then choosing whether to lock it or not?

Thanks for any responses, hope that makes sense!

Two Questions:

1. The Edit post button on the bar of the post is throwing a 404 error. It is trying to take me to the following url: http://intranet/index.php/forums/topic/the-cooking-thread/edit/?view=all and there does not seem to be a corresponding page. Is there something during initial setup that I missed to allow for this url to be populated upon post creation? I am still able to edit via the “Topics” area of the dashboard but I would like for this functionality to work for my users.

2. I am trying to override the front-end post editor to be a rich editor. I have tried installing the tinyMCE plugin and replace the built in editor with the html tags via https://codex.bbpress.org/enable-visual-editor/ with the following code:
function tmceeditor( $args = array() ) {
$args[‘teeny’] = false;
return $args;
}
add_filter( ‘bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args’, ‘tmceeditor’ );

but am having no luck. Again, the editor in the dashboard editor seems to be inheriting the tinyMCE functionality but I would like the user front-end to use this editor as well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am on WP 3.5.2 and bbPress 2.3.2 with a custom theme.

We are having trouble removing the left margin on our BBPress Forum http://sportsbanter.com.au/forums/

It throws out the headings on the forum main page and everything is out of alignment.

Any ideas on how to remove the left margin (the white bar running down the left hand side of our forum)?

I have recently built a website using the Blackbird theme. On the home page runningdevelopmentacademy.com, there is the words ELEGANCY WITH SIMPLICITY Blackbird Theme allows you to create your website through an easy to use themes options panel. I need to know how i can delete this statement from my home page? Thanks.

I like to customize BuddyPress and bbPress,
but both of you told me to use a child-theme,

how can I do this?
Thanks in advanced for any ideas

Hi, I’ve installed bbpress and created my forum, and I am able to create topics and post without any problems

Now the not so good part – and I know it’s something I am missing….

I tried experimenting and created a user, and assigned them – site role ‘no role for this site’, and forum role ‘participant’.

the problem is that when they enter the login details, and click login, it displays the ‘You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page’. error message, (but if I then enter the url for the forum they have indeed logged in successfully.)

what I am trying to achieve is that users can access the forum only and not my site’s dashboard.

If I change the site role for this user to ‘contributor’ then there are no errors when they try to login, and the user is taken straight to the site dashboard instead of the forum, which is not what I am wanting.

I apologise my crudeness in explaining this as I am new to wordpress.

any help will be much appreciated!

thanks
Neil

Is there a way where I can enable logged out users to read topics. Everything is public but when you click on the topic link to read it, nothing shows, it just says You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Hi,
I’m trying to add the forum’s description to be under the forum title on the page-front-forums (index) page. Just like it displays on the single-forum page. Could someone please show me the proper code?

I’ve already changed the css .bbp-forums-list li to “display: block;”

Thank you!

I want to be able to have a form template that shows up when someone goes to post in a forum. i.e. I have a form for businesses to post if they have plants available. Instead of typing out the information in the forum, I would like a form to show up so they can just do drop downs or fill in the blanks.

I’ve read lots of information, but some is a bit over my head so I’m not sure if I have found anything that will do this EASILY. I am not a coder, and do not feel comfortable editing code.

Can a form be built in something like contact form 7 and then shortcoded in? I tried what I thought was that, and it didn’t work and not sure how to figure out what else to do.

Thank you for all suggestions.

Using WP 3.5.2, BBPress, 2.3.2 I don’t have a site that has anything to look at yet – just practicing for now.

Thanks.

Hi,

I have been scouring the forums looking for a solution, but haven’t been able to find one. I have all my users recovered, posts, replies, topics, and forum structure all recovered successfully from a Mingle import. However, all the posts and replies have the authors listed as Anonymous. Is there a way to correct this issue? Something I need to change during import or post-import? I have already done all the optional repairs, as well. Thanks for help!
