Is there a way for me to setup some sort of indicator that will allow me to quickly see if something new has been post in a forum or topic?

Here are the example forums – http://crankyoldmen.com/forums/games/guild-wars-2/professions/

Thanks guys.

Hello,

I installed bbpress and I really like it.

I found that there is an alignment issue that is caused by the return of the bbp_reply_class function for the default theme bbp-twentyten.

I noticed that others were having the same problem.

So I fixed it in my version and would like to submit my bug fix…

How do I go about doing that for this project. I have never contributed a patch to an open source project before but would like to submit this bug fix.

Thanks for your help.

Dear good friends,

I installed the latest bbpress.2.0.2 into my arabic site and it fits OK but the english words like:

Forums ‹ Home

Forum

Topics

Posts

Freshness

are in English. My website is Arabic and would like to make it Arabic.

Here you can see my website after installing bbpress 2.0.2 to it:

is there any way?

Thanks and good day to all of you.

Hi, I’m integrating bbPress with s2member and need to restrict access to certain categories, forums and their topics.

For example, here’s a hierarchy:

Home > Forums > Category1 > Subcategory1 > Forum1 > Subforum1 > Topic1

If someone tries to look at Topic1 or any of its parents, I need to check to make sure they have access to Category1.

Access is managed by s2member.

For typical wordpress posts, I attach this filter, run a wp_query, then detach it:

attach_s2member_query_filters(); // only fetch content the user can access

If that query is not empty, then I let the user view the page they’re trying to look at. If it is empty, it means they don’t have access to any posts and so I redirect them.

But I don’t know how bbPress works well enough to figure it out.

It seems I need to

1. Find what the root category is

2. Check if the user can access the root category

3. If so, allow access to whatever they’re trying to see. If not, redirect or give an error message.

Any ideas on how I can do this?

Ok found a good fix for this!

in bbp_signature.php

in function bbp_reply_content_append_user_signature & function bbp_topic_content_append_user_signature

change

$signature = bbp_get_user_signature ( $user_id );

to

$signature = xprofile_get_field_data( ‘Signature’, $user_id );

Then in Buddypress profile fields add a field called Signature.

Bam fixed.

I even went ahead and added a bbcode parser to the plugin so it works real nice. you can download the full fix here

I’ve been able to solve most of my dilemmas with good ol’ fashioned plug-ins and browsing this and the interweb, but there’s two issues that … until I get resolved, I think will cripple us from proceeding (I work for a small nonprofit) w/ bbPress …

1) Linebreaks – In the ‘About’ section, linebreaks are somewhat necessary for users to discuss their unique story.

2) Profiles – Since they’ll be sharing somewhat sensitive information about themselves, we would love if this was protected.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, we’re using bbpress for our forum and only registered users have access to it. It’s located on our public blog (Serenity child theme) at www.noonesthebitch.com.

Unfortunately, it seems that the forums are showing up, but when a user clicks on the Topic of any forum, it says no topics are found. As an admin, the topics are visible to me.

Also, if we go in and add a topic, all the topics are then visible to users, but eventually disappear again. It’s like they’re resetting or something.

We’re using Wishlist Member as well and I’ve made sure that none of the content is hidden.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hello guys! I’m wondering if there’s a way to add sections to separate groups of Forums?

For example:

Section

– Forum

– Topic

– Reply

-or-

Science

– General Discussions

– Topic: “QQ Science is fun”

– Topic: “I love science!!1one!”

– Theories

– Topic: “I think X theory should be a law”

Math

– General Discussions

– Topic: “Help! I dunno the answer for 1+1”

– Theorems

Something like that, if it’s not clear, please let me know!

Hi everyone! I’m new to BBPress and I’m quite the technology newbie, so please be as simple and specific as possible when answering my question otherwise I’m liable to not get it

Here goes: I have WordPress and installed BBPress. I have the Piano Black theme. My site is called Pro Football Chick (profootballchick.com/forums if you want to see what I’m talking about). Anyhow, I want the forums to have a tab on my front page at the top — like the About, Home, and Contact pages. I also noticed that there’s no way for someone to add a topic — how can I fix that?

Thank you SO much!

I can see several spam messages on this forum and they stay quite a long time. This worries me about BBpress itself. Can someone shed some light if BBpress has a future? Is it actively developed?

thanks.
