Possible RSS Feed Bug

Published on January 1st, 2013 by binarymoon

I tried to add my forum feed to ifttt so that I could get email alerts when new content is posted however ifttt told me that there was a problem with the feed.

The error it gave was:

Not a valid feed url, missing feed title

So my questions are:

  1. Is this a bug?
  2. Can I fix it with some sort of hook/ filter?

The feed I was trying to add is here: http://prothemedesign.com/forums/feed/

Latest plugin triggers fatal error–need to find older version

Published on January 1st, 2013 by

When I updated to the latest plugin version today it triggered a fatal error. We were updating because the forums had stopped showing any new posts since Dec. 16 and thought maybe an updated plugin might help. We are still using WordPress version 3.4.2 due to being in the middle of changing servers. My friend has requested that we go back to the previous plugin since at least the forums were showing up, albeit frozen, while she finds a bbPress expert. Problem is, I never had a copy of the bbPress plugin—I downloaded it from the WordPress Plugin site, which now shows only the most recent version. Can anyone tell me where I could find an earlier version of the plugin to download? Also, any thoughts where we can find someone to help us with our ongoing bbPress issues? Thanks very much.

Here is the error, which unfortunately is gibberish to me:
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Warning: require(/home/friendbl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/functions.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in/home/friendbl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbpress.php on line 303

Activate New Theme

Published on January 1st, 2013 by attendstar

I uploaded a new theme as per the instructions. Now how do I activate it?

I set my user role to Keymaster but I do not see the Admin section, I have version 2.2.3 and I installed bbpress as a plugin (do not have Buddy Press).

Elsewhere I have read that there is an Admin link that appears, but I do not have one or do not know where to look. I have searched the forums, searched Google and it seems its a common issue.

Thank you

Fatal error after installation – Call to undefined function user_can()

Published on January 1st, 2013 by micbar01

Hi,

I am trying to install bbpress but after activating it I am getting this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_can() in /home/**/**/**/**/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/capabilities.php on line 226

I checked and I have all the requirements. I also tried to search in here before creating this topic but couldn’t find the answer.

Any ideas?

Limited posts

Published on December 31st, 2012 by aerokat

I am so frustrated with bbPress. I wanted to be rid of my phpbb forum…. when I found that wordpress had its own sort forum, I was excited. I loaded it, got it all set up…. I made several posts… over 70 posts for a matter of fact…now I am having a problem.

I am reposting a lot of old logs from the previous phpbb forum onto the bbpress. And I have hit a block to where bbpress will no longer make new posts. I imagine that this is a problem on my mysql/database side…. but I can’t find any info on it and don’t know how to figure it out….as I am still learning databases and such.

I still have over a years worth of logs to load….. but yet it seems as though bbpress or wordpress has hit is limit of what I can post?

Does anyone know what I can do? Is there a setting on wordpress, bbpress or mysql database that can be make to allow me to continue? Or should I just stay with the old phpBB forum that I already have and leave bbpress alone?

I am using bbpress 2.2.3 and wordpress 3.5

2.2.3 – Fatal error: Unknown: Cannot use output buffering

Published on December 31st, 2012 by allenmccabe

I have s2Member running with bbPress 2.2.3 and I am getting the following error when accessing the Users page within the admin:
`Fatal error: Unknown: Cannot use output buffering in output buffering display handlers in Unknown on line 0`

Version 2.2.2 does not do this on the development server (also running with s2Member).
Wordpress version 3.4

How can I make private forums visible to visitors

Published on December 31st, 2012 by tednopple

The Problem: I would like for non-registered visitors to SEE what forums are available on my site, but NOT contribute OR see the topics without signing up.

I have set the forums to private, but now users can’t even SEE the forums. When they click on my forums page, they get “Oh bother! No forums were found here!” It seems like you either hide it from them all together by making it private, or allow them to read it without contributing until they register.

Possible Solutions?:

I’d like to at least be able to do one of the following

  1. Allow non-registered users to at least see the private forums list but not the topics.
  2. Change the “Oh bother” message (and also the “page not found” message that shows in place of the individual forum page) to something, like “please register to view forums”.
  3. Or at least show a custom alternative PAGE for non-registered users who click on the link, but show the forums page for logged in users.

    any ideas. Hopefully there is a simple workaround that doesn’t involve child copies, as I would like to keep receiving updates.

Close a Topic

Published on December 31st, 2012 by mostafaqanbari

i installed new bbpress2.2.3 and then “user Role Editor” plugin for defining user roles for my forum users. but when i use bbp_topic_admin_links(); my users cant see any of admin buttons! this means that they cant close their topics too! i checked “user role plugin” 100times and nothing wrong with it. i manually create buttons for editing and deleting a topic but i cant find a way to close a topic! what can i do with bbp_topic_admin_links(); to show necessary buttons to my users?

Hi, i installed bbpress after i installed buddy press. During the bbpress installation process it said if i wanted a new page created for forums. I clicked “create new page.” After the installation i went to my website and found no tab. I checked to see if the page was created at all and it was. my website is here.
