BBPress 1 import: Successful but forums not mapped to BP Groups

Published on December 12th, 2012 by Bowe

Details

Install: WP 3.5  (Multisite) + BBPress 2.2 Bleeding and BuddyPress 1.6.2
Guide used: https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/migrating-from-old-forums-to-bbpress-2/

Procedure: We’ve ran the importer to import from BBPress 1 to BBPress 2. The migration wizard went fine and all the forums/topics and replies have been set. We’ve followed the guide and made sure BBPress 2 is set to be used as the BP Group Forums. For some reason this does not happen. We tried using the various Repair Forums tools, but they do not have effect.

So right now we have working BBPress 2 Forums that do not integrate with the existing groups. Any suggestions on how to “remap” BBPress 2 forums to BP Groups?

Thanks in advance!

"Freshness" Bug after Topic Move

Published on December 12th, 2012 by Adam Cunnington

Hi,

After moving a topic from forum A to forum B, the freshness of the post is still recorded in forum A.

Should this be like this? If so – does it make sense to list a post as 2 hours fresh in forum A when it actually no longer exists there.

Thanks,
Adam

TinyMCE buttons – how to filter?

Published on December 12th, 2012 by dFactory

Hi,
Is there a way to filter buttons in Fancy editr (for eg. full screen writing) used by bbPress on the frontend – in topics and replies?
I was trying to filter it ‘bbp_get_the_content’ but I didn’t figure it out.

strange links being created in user profiles

Published on December 12th, 2012 by phoenixolivia

For some reason all the content that gets entered in a user’s profile turns into a hyperlink when viewed publicly. These links all lead back to the original member’s directory page. If you visit my link below you’ll see what I mean.

How do I get rid of the link and just have plain text.

Custom Forums Page (with categories)

Published on December 12th, 2012 by Darren1981

Hey all,

Since there is no support for “Categories” so to speak.. what i would like to do is create a custom main forum page and insert the forums manually… Now i know this can be done with shortcodes in posts and pages like as follows:

But what i am wondering is how would one go about inserting single forums into the BBpress .php template files.. for example the template content-archive-forum.php has the following php code which displays all forums:

I would like to edit this file and insert forums manually.. is there a php version / code like the shortcodes to insert single forums ?

Regards, Darren

Lightbox for bbPress?

Published on December 11th, 2012 by EJMorges

Hi,
I would like to add a lightbox feature to the bbPress message board. Is there a pluggin that works with the current version 2.2.3.  or is there a way that I can make the lightbox pluggin that I have for WordPress work within bbPress somehow?

GDtools is a great pluggin that has a built in lightbox feature but it ads the images separate from the actual post and this isn’t the best technique for creating articles within bbPress.

Thanks,

EJ

How to change font size?

Published on December 11th, 2012 by bruceleebee

Hello,

I am using skematiktheme.com wordpress theme, which is also styled for buddypress. I also have the lastest version of buddypress, bbpress, and wordpress installed.

Not sure if I should be asking this in the buddypress forum or not, because most of the changes are related to bbpress forums which are integrated with buddypress.

I want to change the font size. In general I just need to change the font size for the text in the body of posts, but it would be good if I could bump everything up by 4px. How do I change that?

Can someone help me by explaining it in simple step-by-step language?

For example: go here, then type this code here, and then change this, etc….

Thanks,
Ben

Hidden

Published on December 11th, 2012 by blg002

I’m interested in using the ‘Hidden’ Forum Visibility but having it only be visible to users who have a less authoritative Forum Role than ‘Moderator’. Moderator has to much access for my liking, I’m looking for something in-between ‘Participant’ and ‘Moderator’. My entire forum is restricted to ‘Participants’ and I want to create another forum that only a subset of my current users and see in the forum index and can access (via direct uri).

I’m thinking I’d probably need some plugin for this? Anyone have any experience with something like this?
