Hi. I’m new to bbpress and I’m trying to install the front page text plugin but I can’t get it to work. Can someone give me some more detailed guidance than what’s on the page here, http://www.fldtrace.com/wordpress/bbpress-front-page-text-plugin.

I have the plugin installed and I can activate it from the admin account, but when I click on the “front page text” button, I get an error message that says, “There is no administration page at the requested address. Please check the address you entered and try again.”

Any ideas?

But where do I create this parent forum? I have tried to create a Category but it didn help 🙁

NB! BuddyPress forum is not enabled

Hey everyone,

Unfortunately I’m having another minor hiccup in my bbPress 2.1 implementation. I’ve done some fairly heavy modifying of bbpress user profile pages, and somewhere along the line I have induced wordpress to flag profiles as error-404.

My site homepage is http://tamrielfoundry.com, which can be accessed using username=test and password=test.

My own user profile page http://tamrielfoundry.com/users/atropos/ works just fine, no 404.

A different user (who has not made any posts, which could be the cause) gets error-404 as a class in the body declaration. http://tamrielfoundry.com/users/blade/

Regardless, the fact that this content is getting flagged as 404 doesn’t seem to affect the page actually displaying the relevant content, however obviously it would be preferable if I can get the site to recognize user pages for existing users as non-404.

Let me know if I can provide any relevant info, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone have any idea how I can have members become “Supporting Members” and add a supporting member badge to a single user’s bbpress posts under their username? I dont want to run a full subscription plugin, just a badge to show members that are in an elite group of donating members?

Got another question. How does bbPress weigh the different templates? For example, if I put a bbpress.php in my child theme root, with the sidebar removed, all pages in the forum misses the sidebar.

However, if I put archive-forum.php in the child theme root, with a removed sidebar, that sidebar pops up on all the other pages.

In what order does bbPress look for templates in version 2.1?

Hi all, it looks like the bbpress is – for some reason – not interpreting the HTML tags in first posts. The HTML tags are visible in the posts themselves and the content is not formated. Replies are OK – HTML formated, tags not visible.

Example here: http://poradci-sobe.cz/diskuse/topic/nef%C3%A9rov%C3%A9-jedn%C3%A1n%C3%AD-poji%C5%A1%C5%A5ovny/

Any idea what is the issue

One small remark – all the forum content was imported from bbpress 1.02 via bbconverter

Hi, I’m trying to create a custom theme for the bbPress forum. I already got a child theme based on Twenty Eleven, and I’m trying to style bbPress with my style.css in the child theme folder.

The problem is that bbpress.css is imported in the html code after my style.css, overwriting the latter’s styling. How do I force bbPress to use style.css instead, even though bbpress.css is imported after?

I have been struggling with this for hours and hours.

I’m using BuddyPress on a MU environment.

Originally I installed forum in a per group mode. I found the topic organization to be confusing in the group mode, and so now I would like to reinstall the forum with the site-wide option. How do I do this?

I’ve tried to use the graphic interface to uninstall groups and install sitewide – but that didnt work, the group forum would continued to get re-enabled.

So here is what I’ve done so far:

1) I’ve deleted from the database all the tables related to the bbpress.
2) I’ve deleted the bb-config from the root.
3) I’ve edited the group-metadata and group tables to remove references to forum.
4) I’ve deleted the bbpress plugin from the file system.
5) I’ve edited the Settings/Forums to not use groups.

So now after trying to purge all remnants of the forum and then trying to reinstall it – I no longer have a functional forum.

In BuddyPres/Forums, I see the button that says “install site-wide forum” but when I click on it I see a message that the latest version is already installed.

When I try to view my forum, I get a blank page:

http://bhaktiwriters.staging.wpengine.com/forums/forum/bhakti-writers-forum/

When I try to view a new topic, I get the following error:

http://bhaktiwriters.staging.wpengine.com/forums/topic/test-topic/

“Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_get_id_from_slug() in /nas/wp/www/staging/bhaktiwriters/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bp-forums-functions.php on line 137″

I’m playing with this on a staging site, so I can demolish everything and start from the point of a working group-forum.

So, any idea how I can convert from group-forum to site-wide-forum? I don’t care about loosing data.

Thanks!

I installed bbPress 2.1.1 as a plugin on WP 3.4.1. When I set a new user as a Forum Moderator from the back end, if he tries to log out, an error occurs. I don’t find a WP Integration panel in the settings. Any hints?

When I try to post a topic and forget the title, all the text I wrote is gone once I get the “you need to supply a topic title” error message.
Isn’t there a nicer way this can be done?
