bbPress.org

If I understood the instructions correctly, after installing and configuring the forum should be in my menu so people can get to it.

However for some reason it is not http://networkingcounselors.com/forums/

I feel like I am most likely missing something but searching I couldn’t figure out what.

If it makes a difference, I am not using a custom menu. I am just ordering the pages how I want them to display. Doing this because one of my add ons restricts page access based on member level and it does not work with custom menus.

WordPress: 3.5.1
bbPress: 2.2.4

WordPress V3.5.1
BuddyPress 1.6.5
bbPress 2.2.4

I have just moved my group forums from BuddyPress and added a sitewide forum as per these instructions https://codex.buddypress.org/user/buddypress-site-administration/migrating-from-old-forums-to-bbpress-2/

Everything is working except for 1 thing.

Any user with a forum role of Participant cannot see the opening topic post in any thread. They can see all replies. It doesn’t matter if they created it or another user did, they can’t see the opening post.

If I change their role to Moderator they can see the opening post. But, I don’t want everyone to have moderator rights.

I tried changing the capabilities of Participant (using capability manager plugin), but that didn’t work either.

Can someone please HELP!!!

thank you

I started Bbpress 2.3 rc 1 and BP 1.7 and seems no trouble.
but the forum bbpress display non full width and list style.

until now, search much time on google, only @pimarts forum website that looks great. i wondering how he can get displayed ?

I am looking to display additional profile fields I created with s2member.

I opened user-profile.php.

I think I need to write more of these lines and edit them to call on the additional s2member profile fields:

“

<p class=”bbp-user-description”><?php bbp_displayed_user_field( ‘description’ ); ?></p>

<?php endif; ?>“

I have not yet located the s2member code to add to above code.  If anyone has accomplished this, please let me know.

Hi Everyone:

Im new to using bbpress and I have a question. I have two forums where I want two different sets of users. For example Forum A will only be able to be access by Group A and Forum B can be accessed by Group A and B. Is this possible?

Thanks to all replies in Advanced!

I recently converted from the standalone version of bbPress to the plugin version. Everything went as planned. It’s been about a month and all of my forum posts have been re-indexed by google. Luckily I don’t have a big board so I was able to do 301 redirects for all my old URLs so they pointed to the new ones.

The only odd thing is that now my forum home page (index), say mysite.com/forums, did not get indexed by google. If I try to search for mysite.com/forums, I get all my posts, but not my homepage. Any clues on why this happened and what I can do to fix it?

Thanks in advance for you help.

Alright, first off let me explain what I’ve done so far. For my forums, I have created a forum-specific sidebar.

sidebar-bbpress
` div id=”sidebar”>

?php
if (!function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar(‘bbpress’)):
endif;
?>

`

And registered the sidebar in my function.php
` register_sidebar(array(
‘id’ => ‘bbpress’,
‘name’ => ‘bbpress’,
‘before_widget’ => ‘div class=”widget”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ‘/div>’,
‘before_title’ => ‘h4>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘/h4>’,
));
`
And I pull it in my forum.php by:
`?php get_sidebar( ‘bbpress’ ); ?>`

In my css I’m able to customize the forum’s #main by referencing “#main.forum”, so I can specify widths that will only affect the forum, etc.

Now for my issue, how the hell do I change sidebar information ONLY in forums? I’ve tried referencing #sidebar.forums, but it doesn’t classify the sidebar as a forum sidebar.

Hey,

I have tried to import my Vbulletin forum to bbpress for the past few days.

I use the import function and checked the information with the config.php file from the forum that’s still up and running.

When I try I just get this info:
Repair any missing information: Continue
Conversion Complete
No replies to convert
No tags to convert
No topics to convert
No forum parents to convert
No forums to convert
Starting Conversion

Anyone with luck to import their vbulletin forum? I’m running vbulletin 4.1.12 Patch Level 2

Hi, is there a way to remove the email field from guest posting in the forum? (a client asks)

I’m testing bbPress 2.3-rc1 with BuddyPress 1.7-rc1 on WP3.5.1 and may have encountered an issue with bbp_get_topic_id().

Can bbp_get_topic_id() be used to get the main topic id from a Buddypress group>forum>topic+replies page?
If yes, then how? (a quick code line example please)
If not then how else should this be done?

Thank you.
