How to limit a group of users to one specific private/hidden forum?

Published on February 2nd, 2013 by peripatew

In searching the forum, it seems that I can use the Member’s plugin to allow users and user roles to access the private/hidden forums. But, most of the posts (all over a year old) indicated that this couldn’t be specific to one individual forum within bbPress.

I have multiple groups that each need their own forum, but, I only want them to access one specific forum that’s completely private for only that group of users.

I read that this can be accomplished with BuddyPress groups and forums, but BuddyPress is overkill for what I’m trying to do, as I only need a simple forum.

Thoughts? Options? I have this functionality right now within Vanilla Forum’s, it’s quite easy, but I need tighter integration with WordPress.

bbPress Registration Tab

Published on February 1st, 2013 by golfer300

My site is amanofreason.com. How can I create a little tab/button on my forums page that will allow people to register. However, right now there is no button for people to click to either registration or sign in. How can I create these buttons to clean up my forums page. I appreciate any help.

Sticky topics in private forums can be read by normal users?

Published on February 1st, 2013 by kshade

We’ve got a problem on our site where random logged in users without the read_private_forums capability can still view and post in stickied topics (not super stickied) in private forums if they know the URL. We’re using s2member, but that probably isn’t relevant to the issue. Also I’ve disabled reading private forums for the Participant role using Capability Manager Enhanced.

I am testing the bbpress forum at the moment but ive not made pages public yet, I’m ok with creating forums and topics and all is well whilst editing these elements, however when it comes to reading the posts/forums I get a white background to the posts and the and forum menu areas with the text in posts being white, and most of the text in the menus white too, I have looked everywhere but cant find a setting to change this, can someone please help me out, I have mingle forum up and running of the site at present and the only reason I am changing is because I want the users to integrate into my forum and not have to add them manually.

Im running a competition on my site at present that relies on the forum so I was hoping to migrate this one over to the forum but I just need to solve this issue and im away.

No Forum button in Admin

Published on February 1st, 2013 by ckpepper02

I installed BBPress 2.2.3 on wordpress 3.5 and the admin panel doesn’t display a Forum button for me to add forums and topics. When I go to settings, I can see the Forum settings, but nothing else.

I’m using a custom theme, but when I reverted back to twentytwelve, it was the same issue.

Any ideas?

WP-Members data to BBPress

Published on February 1st, 2013 by tred1975

Hi there,

I am using a WordPress site and i want to use the Plugin WP-Members to get Members registered. The Forum only becomes visible when you are a registered user. As i saw in WP-Members, i can add custom fields to the registration (required or not) I want that users allready kinda have to fill in some more information about theirselves = Profile at the registration

My question is: Can all this information username/password and the whole Profile information submitted while the registration in WP-Members automatically added to BBPress. So the user is also autmaitcally registered at the forum BBPress and allready have a Profile with some info which he filled in at the registration in WP-Members.. ??

Thanks for any help

Create a list of current Members/Users plugin or tricks?

Published on February 1st, 2013 by bob marteal

Hi,

I need to make a list of forum members to display like http://stackoverflow.com/users. I can’t for the life of me find a way to do this. It seems like something that should be pretty obvious. I’d hope to get a plugin or at least some pretty well documented code to make a template or some such. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I’m on WP 3.5.1 and bbPress 2.2.3

Thanks so much.

Blank User Profile Page

Published on February 1st, 2013 by Hammy Havoc

Hey there,

Just a quick question that has been baffling me for two weeks. Whenever anyone visits a user profile, it is blank, any idea why this is? I’m trying to integrate bbPress into a YOOtheme.
You can see an example of what I mean here on the test site: http://kaz.splitanatom.com/forums/user/hammy

Thank you so much in advance for your help,
Hamual
