bbPress.org

I have WordPress 3.3.1 installed with Buddypress 1.5.4 and the BBpress plugin installed as a site-wide forum. Everything works after I save the forums settings but if I navigate to any other page in the WordPress administration area all of the rewrite rules for BBpress in the wp_options table are deleted. I can get them back by saving the forum settings again. No other plugins are having their rewrite rules deleted, just the BBpress plugin. Like I said I can get the forum working as long as I don’t use the admin area after saving the forums settings but obviously this isn’t a good solution. Any ideas? Has anybody else come across this issue?

I’ve just set up a new wordpress site, created a network, added buddypress and bbpress.

The main site is my site. When I went in and created forums, everything worked well. However, when I add the forums to the community menu, none of the newly created forums display.

What am I missing?

Hey!

I have a question about BB Press administration options.

is there option or plugin which allows regural user to start new forum and giving him moderator for this specific forum, so he can for example lock the forum and allow access for selected users ?

for better understanding…I would like to have one forum, which can be used for general info about game as well as provide locked sections for clans.

Iam using simple press forum now, but it can’t be done with it.

I would be grateful for any tips or suggestion (plugins, other forum systems…)

thanks

Hi,

I manage a community about electric cars and we have a wordpress with buddypress. Our buddypress installation is only used for the forum (+ profiles and IM).

I’d like to move from buddypress to BBpress. Do you know if there is a easy way for me to transfer all messages from the buddypress forums to the BBpress forums ? Do you have some advices to success my transition ?

Thanks

Ok, this is weird. I am running a forum at ukjournalism.co.uk/huoguo Ihave users in the UK and China. The UK users can post, but when the users in China post, it all seems to work, but the posts don’t show on the page. I can see the posts in the dashboard, and they are “published”, but they’re just not there. The list of postes even says Showing 5 posts of 8, but I can’t see the last three at all.

All I can think is that there is some setting deep in the bowels of the plugin, wordpress, or my server itself, that simply won’t let something from a Chinese IP post? Any other possibilities? The posts are all in English, it’s not a character typeset problem.

It seems that bbPress will be using GlotPress for managing translations

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1737

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1738

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1739

Can someone please explain what it is and how it works in layman terms? Details are a bit sketchy at https://glotpress.trac.wordpress.org/

Will the translations be pulled live from a web service? Or will every update to the language push .mo .po files to the bbPress installation, and these files will continue to be stored locally? Or is it something entirely different?

Also, in what sort of timeframe/milestone is bbPress planning to make a switch to GlotPress automatic mechanism? I know that the translations are already available at https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/

Hi All, I have installed bbpress and have managed to create forum sections and even post topics from wordpress admin page. However, when I try to access the topic both as an admin, regular user or non logged in, I receive “comments are closed”. Any ideas?

many thanks

Hi

I’m still playing around with bbpress/buddypress on my test site wpthemetrial.com. I know I’m doing something fundamentally wrong, so can I please get help.

I originally copied all the bbp-twentyten files into my active theme and manually edited the files like archive-forum.php, archive-topic.php to get these pages how I wanted them to look.

However, how do I setup my forum homepage to use the page-front-topics.php template? When I create a WP Page at wpthemetrial.com/forum the bbpress automatic page using the archive-forum.php file always overrides it. It says “Archive Slugs

Include custom root slugs to prefix your forums and topics with. These can be partnered with WordPress pages to allow more flexibility.”

but I can’t get it to work.

For now I’ve inserted ‘forumbb’ http://wpthemetrial.com/forumbb/ and ‘topicsbb’ http://wpthemetrial.com/topicsbb/ as my archive slugs, but I’d really like to use my WP custom pages, http://wpthemetrial.com/forum/ and ttp://wpthemetrial.com/topics/ as they are easier to update and manage.

Thanks

I can not seem to figure out how to redirect the user back to the original page after a successful registration using form-user-register.php. It simply sends the user to the wp-login.php.

Looking at the code, I can see that bbp_user_register_fields() has a filter within it as follows:

$redirect_to = apply_filters( ‘bbp_user_register_redirect_to’, ” );

bbp_redirect_to_field( add_query_arg( array( ‘checkemail’ => ‘registered’ ), $redirect_to ) );

I can not seem to get this to work.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Hi,

I’m setting up a forum using bbpress in a WordPress website that will only be available when people are logged into the website.

At the moment if you are not logged in the person can see the forum page and the notice to say how many topics are there but can’t actually see the topics. You can only see the topics when logged in as an admin. While I test everything I do want topics to be seen when not logged in. Once everything is finished, I will need users that are logged in as subscribers to see the topics (which they can’t currently)

I haven’t ever used bbpress before and this is a custom theme I have built so I’m sure it is something I have done wrong. When I installed bbpress, I did need to copy all of the files from the twentyten theme into my own to be able to see any of the forums. The file I copied was: plugins / bbpress / bbp-themes / bbp-twentyten

Is there something obvious I have missed?

You can see the issue here:

I am using WordPress 3.3.1 and bbpress 2.02

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks!
