OptimizePress/WishList/bbPress

Published on November 8th, 2012 by rixtertrader

Hello.

I’m putting together a membership site that is to contain a forum page (or two).

OptimizePress has templates, where one is called the Members 1 No Sidebar, which is suppose to be good for adding a forum.

So I created a PAGE called “Forums Page”.

I installed bbPress plugin and created a couple of forums.

My question is, how do I add the forum onto my “Forums Page”?

Thanks.
Rich

bbPress Install breaks WP editor?

Published on November 7th, 2012 by IanSymonds

Hi

WP: 3.4.2
bbPress: 2.1.2

When I activate bbPress, the editor on my currently existing pages and posts does not work.

Symptoms:

  • The “kitchen sink” toolbar is no longer displayed.
  • The text in the editor panel (“Visual” tab) is white HTML on a white background.
  • When adding a new page or post, the toolbar appears ok
  • When adding a new forum or topic in bbpress, the toolbar appears ok

If I deactivate bbPress, I can edit existing pages/posts with the editor working correctly.

Environment.

This is a brand-new wordpress 3.4.2 installation
bbpress 2.1.2 just installed.

No other plugins or themes are yet installed.

Thanks for your help.
Ian

Nonce check fail using reverse proxy

Published on November 7th, 2012 by

I setup a server on a non standard port that is receiving requests from a reverse proxy. This setting is causing the bhp nonce check fail.

This is function bbp_verify_nonce_request in bbp-common-functions.php
I’m not a PHP Programmer but it looks like this is caused by

if ( empty( $result ) || empty( $action ) || ( strpos( $requested_url, $home_url ) !== 0 ) 

Here the system tries to compare request_url and home url, however this is not identical in a reverse proxy setting, because the request is going to the internal server, while the home_url contains the url of the external web server.
Does this make sense?
To verify the theory I just removed the comparison of the URL’s like this:

if ( empty( $result ) || empty( $action ) )

Now it works, but I hope that I did not open a security issue.
Can I kindly ask for advice on how to better set the system to avoid the issue?
Thanks!

Forum displaying as post template

Published on November 7th, 2012 by johnjack

Evening All
The bbpress plugin for wordpress is amazing! Big thanks to the guys who put it together.
I have a small issue that I am sure is more a newbie thing rather than anything big.
My forums are showing as post on my blog site rather than using the ‘page template’. I can use the shortcode to make certain section initialy show on a page however when ever you click on a topic it takes you back to a post template (with all the post written by, tags etc etc).
Is there anyway to make the plugin use a page template rather than a post?
I am using the Arras Theme at the moment (which could be part of the problem)
Any help would be fab

Thanks

JohnJack

Hiding Subforums

Published on November 7th, 2012 by xxamanda06xx

I know this question has been answered several times in the past but the solutions have not worked for me. I would really like to hide the subforums on the main forum page so that it is not as cluttered and confusing. All the answers I have found tell me to change a line of coding in my themes front-page.php however my theme does not appear to have that.

Upgrading from 2.0.3 to 2.1.2, layout broke

Published on November 7th, 2012 by KalleL

When upgrading from 2.0.3 to 2.1.2 my forum layout broke horribly. What did happen?
Is it possible to keep the layout from 2.0.3 after upgrading to 2.1.2?

Making custom wp-login.php

Published on November 7th, 2012 by alexturn

Hey guys,

I have a premium theme currently installed on my site and I would like to add a bbpress forum to it.

I would like to however make it so no one ever needs to see the wp-login.php.

How do I do it so whenever someone clicks on login or register, they see a custom page with the relevant fields?

I want to do something similar to http://www.swnk.org/forums/

They have it integrated beautifully, EXCEPT when you click on login and it redirects you to wp-login.php which I don’t want. I want an error to pop up immediately (maybe with ajax/javascript?) so users are never ever sent to wp-login.php.

Is this possible? Thanks guys.

Thank you JJ

Published on November 7th, 2012 by Anointed

I just wanted to give a quick shout out to JJ and to say thank you very much for all the help you have been.

I’ve got to say, that JJ really went out of his way this week in helping me with my installation of bbPress. I’m talking a level of help that I would never expect from anyone and it was greatly appreciated.

To many times, especially in this forum, there are just a lot of unhappy people leaving mean messages as they are frustrated with their individual issues. I wanted to take a moment out of my day to publicly say Thank You for all the hard work you do on these forums and this software. There is no way bbPress would be anywhere near what it is today without you and I for one appreciate the hard work you put into this.

Just know your hard work and dedication to this project is appreciated.

Topics and replies but no content displayed?

Published on November 6th, 2012 by BenRacicot

I don’t get this, I think it must be something really stupid on my part. If you look at the screenshot it explains the problem. 2 replies to the current topic but where are they? The page only displays the reply box, can anyone help me understand what might be missing?
