I am a newbie to bbpress so please be gentle.
Basically I am looking to have the following functionality on my forums….
1) Any logged in user can post a topic, and any logged in user can post a reply. (standard stuff so far).
2) Reply’s to the topics can ONLY be seen by the person who posted the topic and admins only.
3) I would like to show that there has been an “x” number of replies to the topic but not the actual replies.
Does anyone know if this is possible please?
I am trying to edit the bbpress.php file,I want to edit the word Forum and Topic and change it to words of my choice, I have duplicated and made changes and put it in my child theme? but nothing displays. Is it wrong to approach it like this? should I not be duplicating the file? The reason I want to put it in my child theme is so when I update the changes do not get deleted. Am I not suppose to edit the bbpress.php file?
Hi All,
From long time, I am wondering why bbPress uses 3 custom-posts?
As a developer, I would have used only 1 custom-posts i.e. for “topics”.
For “replies” I would have used “comments” (that comes bundled with any “post_type”.
For “forums” I would have used “Custom Taxonomy” (Hierarchical).
I feel 1 custom-post with comments and Custom Taxonomy would have been better.
Is there anything bbPress does which might not have been possible above way?
Thanks.
Hi Guys,
Been using 2.0.2 BBPress for quite some time alongside a Wishlist Member installation.
However, I find that when I upgrade to any new version (including 2.1.2) everything breaks. I also can tell ya that with 2.0.2 the only way things worked correctly was by checking the below feature:
> Prefix your forum area with the Forum Base slug (Recommended)
Thoughts on why this version works but nothing newer?
Thanks
FYI, I’ve just created a Python script to convert all bbPress content to plain WordPress object.
Hello,
I have bbpress and buddypress installed in my site. I have “user groups” turned off in buddypress and “enable group forums” turned off too in bbpress.
Despite this I still have a Forums link (which belongs to group furum) in my user activity page menu (not the site-wide activity page), this page is showing links to my activity, my profile, my messages, my friends, my forums and my configuration.
Why is the forums link showing in this menu if I have group and group forums disabled? It should not exist.
Besides this, this Forums link is linking to a wrong url, it is linking to luchotv.com/forums and the group forums page I have set for this is luchotv.com/foro-grupos in the buddypress pages configuration.
In fact this page (http://www.luchotv.com/foro-grupos/) shows the group forums info and I think it shouldn’t even exist.
I am running the latest versions of everything.
Please tell me how can I fix this problem?
Thank you,
Luciano
Hello,
I have a dev version of my website so sorry but you have to enter the password and the username: dev/dev1234
My problem is with the profile page, if you check it you can see the header with the AMS name not fits perfectly. So I want to change. If I change it the header is change every post page.
If you check the css classes you can see the following: post-1693 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-vice-city tag-evfordulo tag-focimdal
I don’t know why but the profile page get the latest posts css classes. Why?
The posts url: http://dev.codenamegta.hu/2012/majamihiroz-vice-city-focimdala/
The profile url: http://dev.codenamegta.hu/forumok/tagok/ams/
How can I disable the redirection after the registration? It’s very annoying if the user the a login registration form with different design.
Thank you very much!
I am helping someone set up a website www.dstress.za.net and was looking for a plugin where clients can register so he can use social networking and other tools to promote his business. I been looking at plugins like WP-Members and Events Manager to set up his site. I normally use Weaver II as I am familiar with it. I been playing around with BuddyPress and it looks interesting but I finding help and getting started very confusing and taking a lot of time. Can someone direct me how to get started with buddypress and also if it can do what I want. Can I use Weaver II otherwise which theme would you recommend to get started. Thanks

How to fix this?
I started last year with 1.0 and I loved that every time a forum user would post or reply I would get an email. My blog is seasonal with a high point in Sept/Oct and I don’t have time to look each day for new replies/posts.
My question is this… Was this functionality (sending me a email) installed from another plugin that was disabled this summer (and thusly not working anymore) or does everybodies BBpress installations do this and I have a conflict that is preventing me from getting them?
