Really long load times to post topic if post has lots of subscribers?

Published on January 14th, 2013 by rossagrant

Hey guys!

Hope everyone’s well!

I’m starting to have some serious load time issues posting replies when a topic has more than a few subscribers.

I have an introduction topic for example.

When I post a reply now, it must take 10 seconds plus to actually be assigned a post number in the URL.

I actually receive the email notification quicker than the post actually bring pushed to the forum and appearing on the front end.

This is only going to grow exponentially.

I’m not a coder so this might be hard work, but is there any way we could get the reply to post THEN queue the emails?

What do you reckon JJ? Do you see this as an issue? Perhaps we could set individual topics to not allow subscribers also. Maybe an admin option?

Would love any suggestions!

Thanks!

Ross 🙂

After a few searches, I have found some answers to these questions but was wondering if there are any plug-ins that integrate all of these together seamlessly. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Appearance help needed

Published on January 14th, 2013 by Tippon

I’m setting up a site at http://aberdaremctc.co.uk/forums/ and using BuddyPress and bbPress for the first time. I’ve managed to set everything up ok, but I can’t adjust the colour of the forum.

I want to either make it the same colour as the rest of my site, or make it transparent, so it fits in a bit better. Can anyone give me some pointers please, even if it’s just the name of the box I want to change so I can search properly 😛

show latest topics in header

Published on January 14th, 2013 by Mantzer

hey,
i would like to show a list of the 4 or 5 most recent topics / replies in my header.
like title / author / time
i’m currently using rss, which doesn’t give me the author though.
also i thought there must be a much simpler solution somehow…
if not. how can i change the “Reply To:” in the rss feed, that is put in front of the topics if there’s a response?
thanks a lot for any help

Profile Page

Published on January 14th, 2013 by rmcfadden

How Do you display the users profile page? I click on my user name and it brings me to a 404 error page: http://buddypress.driostudio.com/forums/users/rachel/

Is there a specific way to set this up? I want it to look the same way it does on this forum.

Converting from vbulletin through phpBB to bbPress?

Published on January 14th, 2013 by limitx3m

I know someone is currently working improving the stock convertor for vbulletin, but is it possible to convert the database into a phpBB database and then convert that to bbpress/buddypress?

Does anyone have any recent experience with this and if everything is retained?

Also, what are some suggestions on converting the blogs from my members?

Thanks!

Theming with the WP plugin…

Published on January 13th, 2013 by jwrbloom

I’m using the bbPress plugin for WordPress, and I’m wondering how to go about changing the theme of the bbPress. Is it mostly dependent upon the WP theme I’m using, aside from CSS changes I make?

How to change URI for single forum?

Published on January 13th, 2013 by bruceleebee

Hello,

I’m trying to integrate my forum with the s2member plugin so that only ONE of my forums is blocked for private membership access. All other forums should remain free.

So I want Forum-A to be free, but Forum-B to be premium members only.

But the problem is that s2member restricts access via URI fragment.

So I can try and restrict access by telling s2member to block all pages that contain “Forum-B” in the URL. But the problem is that for replies and topics, the “Forum-B” part does not stay in the URL, so everyone will be able to get access to this private forum.

A topic in Forum-A looks like:
http://example.com/forums/topic/some-topic-name

A topic in Forum-B (the private forum I am trying to lock) looks like:
http://example.com/forums/topic/some-other-topic-in-private-forum

So as you can see I cannot lock-out all access to Forum-B by including that URI because it does not appear in URL of the topic.

Is there anyway I can make bbPress ALWAYS have some sort of unique identifier in the URL for a specific forum?

Or any other genius fixes for this?

Thanks,
Ben

Private forum visible to participants

Published on January 13th, 2013 by Martin ( Martin_C )

I’ve recently installed the bbPress plugin on AppGlobe. When testing the different settings, I greated a private forum. Should only be visible to administrators and moderators I thought, but it seems participants can both view and add topics to this forum.

Maybe I’m doing something wrong. The settings for this forum is:

Type: Forum

Status: Open

Visibility: Private
