2.2.2
Thanks everyone that’s been contributing feedback here in the forums and patches on trac!
Hi. My site has a custom WP_Query (outside the main loop) in the header (in header.php), and another in the footer (in footer.php). On all/only my bbPress pages, the paragraph breaks in this content are missing, because wpautop is not applied as it normally is.
That’s because bbPress REMOVES THE FILTER “the_content”. I tracked it down to bbp_remove_all_filters( ‘the_content’ ); in bbpress/includes/core/theme-compat.php, line 633.
In that same file, I also see bbp_restore_all_filters(), which looks like it should fix the problem. But it’s not actually working on my custom queries.
So how can I apply bbp_restore_all_filters() to my custom WP_Query calls?
Thanks for any help here!
MY WORDPRESS INFO:
Wordpress v3.4.2
bbPress v2.2.1
RELATED POST:
I also had a similar issue a month ago (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/conflict-with-custom-wp_query-in-header-php/) where bbPress conflicted with these same WP_Query calls in my header and footer. But in that case, the main content from bbPress was REPLACING the content from my WP_Query. I somehow solved that problem by just changing my slugs. But I now see it was probably caused by add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘bbp_replace_the_content’ );, also in this theme-compat.php file.
I’m using the latest WP, BuddyPress and bbPress.
I have the new bbPress forums turning on and working nicely inside new BuddyPress groups (i.e. groups that I create now, since loading the new bbPress). But for existing BuddyPress groups there seems to be a problem. The group admin for existing groups still has the correct bbPress sub-page asking me to tick the box to set up a forum for that group, which I tick and it saves OK. But when I click on the “forum” tab in that group I just get the error message; “This group does not currently have any forums.”
How do I turn on forums in existing BuddyPress groups please?
So I made the update to 2.2.1 (everything was working fine on 2.2), and the plugin successfully installed and activated. However, when I went to look at the forums, they looked like this
I deactivated bbpress and re-activated it, and now it gives a 404 page, like so
Direct links to posts go to wordpress “pages” with a stream of text.
Any ideas? Anyone else having this happen to them?
Hi,
I’m upgrading my forum from a standalone installation to the newer wordpress plugin. The URL structure is a bit different:
Old bbPres (v1.03):
Main page: domain.com/forum
Forum pages: domain.com/forum/forum/{forum-name}
Subforum pages: domain.com/forum/forum/{forum-name}
Topic pages: domain.com/forum/topic/{topic-name}
New bbPress (v2.2.1)
Main page: domain.com/blog/forums
Forum page: domain.com/blog/forums/forum/{forum-name}
Sub-forum page: domain.com/blog/forums/forum/{parent-forum}/{forum-name}
Topic pages: domain.com/blog/forums/topic/{topic-name}
So the main issue I have is that the forum is now in the wordpress directory, whereas I’d rather it was outside. The other issue is that now sub-forums have the parent forum in the url.
I’d like to do two things:
-> Remove the /blog/ from the forums url
-> Redirect old sub-forums to the newer domains.
Does anyone know the htaccess/mod_rewrite to do this?
In case a user change his display name to be diffrent from his username, you cannot use @someusername to mention someone since you do not know what the users username is.
Would be nice to be able to optionally include an @someusername just below the link to a reply or topic authors profile.
Perhaps the best way of doing this would be to add an extra argument to the args array for the bbp_get_reply_author_link function. The current args are:
$defaults = array (
'post_id' => 0,
'link_title' => '',
'type' => 'both',
'size' => 80,
'sep' => ' ',
'show_role' => false
);
But could be changed to:
$defaults = array (
'post_id' => 0,
'link_title' => '',
'type' => 'both',
'size' => 80,
'sep' => ' ',
'show_role' => false,
'show_mention' => true,
);
I know having the user name visible is kind of a security issue, but since the user name already is visible in the profile URL…
Also, a setting for this in the backend would be nice.
Hi,
I am experiencing a problem with forum content not being displayed.
My Forums and Topic Titles are being displayed, but not the text descriptions I created for these topics and I can’t see any of the replies either. Here is an example: http://www.cbblogers.com/forums/topic/participar-aqui-semana-do-dia-23-ao-30-de-novembro/
This topic has a lengthy description, which isn’t being displayed and it also has one reply which isn’t being displayed either.
Please help. thanks much
I’d like to have the forums base just be /, is that possible with bbpress?
For instance, say I have a forum category of ‘bears’ and the forums within it are ‘grizzly, brown, and polar’ and I’d like my URLs to be:
example.com/bears/grizzly
example.com/bears/brown
example.com/bears/polar
Similarly, another category might be ‘apes’, and I’d like URLs:
example.com/apes/gorillas
example.com/apes/bonobos
example.com/apes/chimpanzees
Right now the best I can do is:
example.com/forums/apes/gorillas, etc.
So I want to remove the ‘forums’ part completely.
Thanks for any help!

Not sure why original person who installed forum was not able to use original wp-admin for installing but they installed it on forum/bb-admin instead.
now i want to upgrade bbpress to latest version and The version I have is old and I think back then it was just a theme that was uploaded and NOT a plugin…. Now they have switched from a bbpress theme to a plugin
so how can i install and update new version
thanks
Once can check “Use the fancy WordPress editor to create and edit topics and replies”, yes.
However, the problem is such editor confuses people.
(I don’t suppose majority of my audience recognise, not to mention knowing how to use HTML)
1) “Visual” and “HTML” what the heck?
2) They don’t intuitively know that they need to switch to the “HTML” editor to insert images.
The editor used here is not fantastic but it is much better than the default WordPress one, for forums.
