Removing bbPress roles after uninstallation

Published on January 5th, 2013 by muyilleum

Hi there, I uninstalled bbPress from my blog but find that the additional roles (e.g. Keymaster, Spectator etc.) it created remain. Please tell me how I can completely remove these new roles. Thank you.

Topic List disappears in Firefox

Published on January 5th, 2013 by Will Brownsberger

For some strange reason, the list of “topics started” in the user profile does not work in Firefox. It works in IE, Safari and Chrome.

To see the problem, try this link in the several browers.

http://willbrownsberger.com/index.php/forums/users/rich-carlson/topics

In firefox, nothing is visible below the header “Forum Topics Started”, while in the other browsers, a topic list appears as expected.

The behavior is the same for the replies list. In this example, the user has no Favorites and the statement that there are no favorites does appear. In the case of a user with favorites, nothing shows.

So, I guess there is something in the source that generates list for this page that Firefox doesn’t like.

I’m on bbPress 2.2.3 and WordPress 3.5. I have a few theme modifications to bbpress in place, but not for this template and I had noticed that the problem was occurring before I made the modifications.

Baffled. Presumably, the source served to the browsers is all the same.

Any suggestions?

moderating forum posts

Published on January 5th, 2013 by steveredshaw

I am just checking out bbPress as possibility for including on a site I am developing for a social group I belong to. Is it possible to set a forum up so that any posts are moderated and approved before they are published?

WordPress ver: 3.5
bbPres ver: 2.2.3

Help a Newbie identify what is making bbpress run slow

Published on January 5th, 2013 by aktionj33

I just started designing websites literally a week ago. I have been reading as much as I can to try to get up to speed. But this one is confusing. So I have decided to reach out to the experts!

1. Why does bbpress eat up so much resources on P3 plugin performance compared to my other plugins? Usually its responsible for .4-1 second of page load time on its own. Its a much bigger slice than the others.

2. Is there some kind of setting in bbpress that can improve this?

3. How would I go about hosting bbpress on another server and embedding it on my site?

I am using WP Super Cache if that matters. It does seem to speed it up.

Everyone is a Key Master!

Published on January 5th, 2013 by Ben Hansen

Not sure if this is related to anything else i’ve seen here but pretty sure this is about the new dynamic roles. Prior to the new forum roles i had created custom roles to combine capabilities of forum and wp default roles (such as Moderator + Editor) using user role editor. Things were all out of whack and i noticed this week that everyone was able to see our private forums, so i decided to try to clean things up by deleting all of my custom roles and start over. Unfortunately it seems that the new powers have stuck and i can no longer edit the capabilities of the participant role (has everything but keep gate and manage capabilities) the other roles seem to be editable (although they all default to this level of power as well) Anyone know what to do here?

Thanks advanced!

latest forum topic started

Published on January 5th, 2013 by Mantzer

Hey
I have an author page that is different to the default bbpress user page.
However I’d like to show the last forum topic a user started as well as their latest reply on that particular page. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks a lot.

How to enable one shortcode from a plugin in bbPress (CodeColorer)

Published on January 5th, 2013 by Hansaplastique

I’d like to offer visitors the ability to use CodeColorer to syntax highlight their code.

I know that shortcodes are basically disabled for security reasons – which makes sense.

But how can I add a “safe” shortcode to bbpress?
The WP plugin bbPress2 Shortcode Whitelist and bbPress do shortcodes are not working (the latter even being risky at best).

bbPress: 2.2.3
WP: 3.5
Theme: my own development

Pre-Installation Question (re. registration & login)

Published on January 5th, 2013 by steve02a

I have a pre-installation question regarding the registration and login parts.

If I install the bbpress into my wordpress site – can I separate the registration and login from the actual wordpress registration and log in so the user doesn’t actually have an account on my wordpress site, but rather their account is only contained for the bbpress? I don’t have a blog or offer replies on my pages, so I have no need for people to create some user account on my site for that purpose. I do use a registration/login on my site, but that redirects users somewhere else away from my site.

So, can this be accomplished in bbpress?

Thanks in advance for your reply…

Fancy Editor always in WYSIWYG mode …

Published on January 5th, 2013 by Hansaplastique

I was looking for a way to make sure forum posts are always edited in the WYSIWYG mode of the fancy editor, and found an easy solution to hide raw text (both tabs actually disappear with this) – in case someone is looking for this as well;

In the template files (only copy the files you need from wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress to your theme folder, into a folder called bbpress, for example wp-content/themes/mytheme/bbpress) you’ll find numerous calls to:

bbp_the_content( array( ‘context’ => ‘reply’ ) );

In your template files replace a call like this with (ie. add: ‘quicktags’ => false);

bbp_the_content( array( ‘context’ => ‘reply’, ‘quicktags’ => false ) );

The calls can be found in all form-xyz.php files.
