switching to language “Deutsch” from de_DE-formal causes login issues

Published on December 5th, 2017 by haddlyapis

Hi,
after the 4.9 WP update, the de_DE-formal language was not working correctly (https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/42574). In this time I switched to language setting “Deutsch”. I then started receiving complaints that some users couldn’t login to the forum. Yesterday I switched back to de_DE-formal, as they have fixed this issue and this in turn fixed the login issue. But I wanted to report this to you anyway.
Is there anything I should be doing in BBPress settings when i change the WP language settings? thx.

http://mysite.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

Export/Import

Published on December 4th, 2017 by Dzonny

Hey all,

Is there a way to export all forums content, including topics, posts and members registered, and then import it on another bbpress installation?

I have one forum on example.com with registered members and around 5.000 posts, and I have WP blog on blog.com, where I just installed bbpress, but not sure how can I import my forum to blog.com?

Thanks!

Odd user error

Published on December 4th, 2017 by Gewitty

I’m running WP 4.9.1 with the Sport theme and BBPress 2.5.14

Everything works OK, but I have one user who has persistent problems posting. Every time he attempts to post a message, he gets an error saying, ‘ERROR your topic cannot be created at this time”.

This does not happen with any other users and the problem persists even after I deleted his account and created a new one with a different ID and password.

This would seem to point to some external cause, originating on his PC, but I can’t figure out what. I did suspect that he was possibly drafting his posts in MS Word and then copy/pasting them into his posts, which could have included MS control codes, a problem I’ve encountered before. However, after getting him to enter text directly in a new post, the same error message appeared.

This one has me stumped. If anyone has seen anything like it before, or has any ideas about what the cause is, I would be very grateful to hear.

Registration Copy and Attachments

Published on December 2nd, 2017 by PrancingHorse

Hello!

I have two questions

#1. How do you get attachments to show up even if the person is not logged in? For example, on this page: https://www.yorkregiontutoring.com/forums/topic/molarity/ It says “Attachments:
You must be logged in to view attached files.”

#2. I rewrote the copy on the register page by going here: /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.php but the old copy is still showing up here: https://www.yorkregiontutoring.com/register/ Any ideas?

Thank you very much!

My Recent Replies and Recent Topics widgets aren’t refreshing.

Published on December 1st, 2017 by mianajoss

WordPress version: Version 4.9.1
BBPress version: Version 2.5.14

For some reason when my users post or when I post, the widgets wont show the new posts anymore. And they’re also not in order. It makes it difficult for my users to see new posts and topics, especially when they aren’t showing up. It worked for a few hours but it stopped working. I’ve tried everything it seems to get it to work again but I’ve had no luck.

I would love to get help with this because I’d really love to stay with bbpress. I don’t want to have to go to new forum software.

I hope there’s a way to fix this and I would love help with this! It helps my users see what’s going on in the site and in turn, it drives usage of the forum.

Automatically creation of Subforums

Published on November 30th, 2017 by thinkinginxyz

Hello,

Does anyone know how i can do to create automatically subforums when a group (budypress) is created? By default bbpress creates one forum for the group, but i would like to be able to create automatically also some given subforums, so in this way, all the groups have the same structure.

I tired to ask for help in so many places, even here too, but no luck at all. Nobody replies. I tired to check hooks but I am lost.

Please I need help, could anyone give me some hint or help?

I will be very grateful.

Kind Regards
Ting

Forum root is overriding user created forum index page

Published on November 30th, 2017 by Themezly

Let me start by saying that I did extensive searching for past 2 hours and are surprised to see all questions about the same issue getting brushed off. Some even instruct to remove the home link from breadcrumb just to hide an actual bug.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/breadcrumb-and-forum-index-issues/

bbPress breadcrumb forum root link issue


there are many more but I am allowed only 3 links. Google breadcrumb

Please take the issue as it is which is a bug confirmed by many.

1. Breadcrumbs forum home page link and the page that user has created are not in sync
2. When user creates the page with shortcode as instructed in Step 2 https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum/ or even Step 1

the default Forum Root archive is overriding that page instead other way around. The process should be same as selecting page for posts in WP but in BB is just complicated and not effective.

Use default theme, follow instructions in step 2 , when you done , go to your custom created forum page and change template. No changes. Now change the root in forum settings, redo permalinks go back to custom page and you will see the change.

Note that I have no custom overrides so it is not theme related.
