I have a forum where HTML code is often posted, but due to the restrictions other than admin, customers HTML gets stripped even if they put it in a code block.

Is there a way to allow all HTML code through for any users?

Hi,

being less than a novice with code, I’ve relied on setting up my WP / bbPress site by using plugins. I’ve some experience with css styles, so I’ve tweaked some of the layout to my liking. My problem is that I can’t seem to find how to style the sub-forums list.

My forum has a hierarchy with 3 levels of forums, and I’d like to only see one level at a time when viewing the main forum page, and the sub-forum pages. Alternatively, the forum overview should be more like it looks from the back-end.

I’d really wish the plugin-interface would let us tweak some this functionality. Like when creating an index page for the forums using

Or have readily assigned css-classes for the sub-forums list to tweak – I haven’t been able to find them, at least

I would really like to avoid going into the php-code as I unfortunately have no understanding of this. I’ve set up the forums using the 2.1 beta as it almost worked 100% for me, except for this little trick…

Thanks for any advice and help!

When I click on “Forums” or “Topics” in /wp-admin/ I get this error:

You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.

I have noticed this:

http://my.website.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress (works)

http://my.website.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=edit.php?post_type=forum (doesn’t work and this is the one in admin)

How can I resolve this in my Admin section?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

I have asked this question in WP forum, but got no response there. Maybe someone from this forum will be able to help me on my problem…

I have WP 3.3.1 with bbPress plugin for forum. Replays order in topics is set to descending. Issue is:

Topic has many replays in it and therefore topic is divided in several pages. As ‘replays’ order is set to descending, newest replays are in first page. Problem is after submitting new replay you are sent to very first topic replay e.g. last page of topic.

Any ideas how to get it work in way that after submitting new replay bbPress send you to newest replays e.g. first page of topic in this case?

Hi All,

I have set up bbpress through wordpress and it is working.

I cannot see anyway to manage bbpress but that is on another thread, and the answer to that may solve this.

The bbpress only comes with a Title, Comments and Tags

I want to be able to add at least one other field for a Post

URL for example

Is this possible?

Thanks

I am unable to double-space between paragraphs in the ‘author posts’.

They look like . . .

new para

new para

new para

What do I change so it looks like . . .

new para

new para

new para

The link below is an example on the website . . .

Any suggestions would be grateful.

Hi guys,

Have a question. Im a NOOB so please dont shoot me.

Ive set up a forum and its working so far. But when a new user registers it also gives the access to the wordpress front-end (dashboard) Even so when I set it up that new users have the role of “forum participant” the still can get to the wordpress dashboard. Not having al the functions ofcourse but still.

Is there a way to NOT show them the wordpress front-end?

Thank you so much

Are they any foreseeable issues with upgrading a 1.1 install to 2.1 automatically from the admin side?

Other than increasing timeout on the server for a large database? And deactivating BBPress?

thanks, Mark

Hi,

I have just installed bbPress as a plugin, and want to change the word ‘Forum’ or ‘Forums’ to Newsroom.

Is there a way to easily do this?

I have looked into creating a child theme, and adding the bbPress files into my current theme, but all of this seems like overkill for just changing a word.

Any help or advice would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Sam

I am running bbPress 2.0.2 as a plugin on a WordPress 3.3.1 site. I have one forum. It all works great.

I have a plug for WordPress that I created that adds certain meta boxes to blog posts. My plugin uses add_meta_box hook to accomplish this. The theme handles formatting the information at the end of the blog post.

I would like to do the same for bbPress forums on the same site. The plugin doesn’t accomplish it. I would like to be able to add meta boxes on the New Topic form for the bbPress forum, preferably after the Topic Description box but would settle for at the end of the form.

Ideally, I would like to just modify my plugin so that it works for blog and forums on the same site.

Do you think it can be done?

In case there are other alternatives than this approach, my goal is that for certain forums, I want users to supply certain information for each new topic. I would prefer to add form controls to the new topic form that would be required to complete the new topic.

For example, I will have a forum where members can post information about upcoming events. I want them to be required to include in the new topic a date, time, location, etc. I would like to not leave it to them to remember to put these essential bits of information in. I want to make it so that if they forget, their topic will be rejected until they supply that information.

Thanks in advance for the help.
