Removing Forum Page From WP Website

Published on October 6th, 2019 by BigBillT57

I wish to remove the forum portion of my website. I created the forum using BBPress. How do I remove the forum without creating a mess? I do not want to remove my blog posts or any other content. The blog post show up as forum content as well as blog posts.

I manually removed the forum page, the links to the forum in the headers, and links to the forum in the menus. But then my website would not display. I did not disable or remove the bbPress plugin. I received an error message from GoDaddy that my site had technical difficulties and was not available. I restored my website from a GoDaddy backup and all was well, but I still had the forum.

Thank you.

Display non bbpress shortcodes in forum or topic

Published on October 3rd, 2019 by demonboy

Hi,

I have a gallery I would like to add either within the forum description or within a topic but bbpress is not parsing the shortcode. It is not a bbpress shortcode, it comes from a gallery plugin.

How do I enable parsing of other shortcodes within bbpress?

Thanks!

Spam Posts From Non-Registered Users

Published on October 1st, 2019 by tsart

I’m confused, I don’t allow guest users without accounts to post yet I’m starting to get notices from Askimet of spam posts. When I go look to see what it prevented from posting, they aren’t from users that have ever existed on the site and they don’t even have email addresses.

I’ve been running this site for about 3 years now and have never see this before. Is there some other setting I could be missing?

Thanks,
Tim

Template Overrides – Not Working

Published on September 30th, 2019 by davec14

Good Afternoon,

I am currently having an issue with getting my template overrides to work on bbpress pages, like forums and questions( indlucing shortcodes). I have the files located in /wp-content/themes/mytheme/bbpress/ but they are not working. Is there something I have done wrong? Or something I need to do? I am trying to edit loop-forums.php and others.

Many thanks in advance for any help or advice,

Kind regards,

Dave

Remove form post after 10 days

Published on September 30th, 2019 by kjvhout

I would like to remove forum posts from my marketplace forum that haven’t been active for 10 days.
I’ve been looking around online but the only answers I’ve found were from 5+ years ago and don’t work (anymore).

I’ve tried doing it with PHP, and looked around on the bbPress website for developer documentation, but that doesn’t exist yet, and has been under construction for around 5 years according to the Wayback machine.

Converting from ipb3 to bbpress replies not coming over

Published on September 27th, 2019 by ttranvnu

I checked the database posts table via phpmyadmin and confirmed that replies posts did not come over to bbpress. Is there a way I can fix this manually by running some manual sql code?

I’m using latest wordpress just downloaded today, and latest version of bbpress (bbPress 2.5.14).
During the conversion I only get the following error which I don’t think tied to the replies posts not coming over.

Repair any missing information: Continue

WordPress database error: [Table ‘*.*_core_tags’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT convert(core_tags.tag_meta_id USING “utf8mb4”) AS tag_meta_id,convert(core_tags.tag_text USING “utf8mb4”) AS tag_text FROM *_core_tags AS core_tags LIMIT 0, 100

No tags to convert

No super stickies to stick

Allowing Users to Create Forums

Published on September 27th, 2019 by

The client I’m working for would like logged in members to be able to create forums.

I’ve added the

  • You must be logged in to create new forums.
shortcode to the archive-forums.php template, and given the logged in user role the following permissions:
– edit_forums
– publish_forums
– delete_forums

However, when I login as a user in the above role, I get the “You cannot create new forums” message.

Any ideas what is happening here please?
