Request: Restrict Topic Creation by Role

Published on June 28th, 2017 by clscschrum

I am currently working on development of a site for a client using this product for their forum needs. They have expressed a need to restrict the creation of new topics by user role.

Essentially they only want Moderators to be able to create topics, and Participants to be able to comment only. This does not seem to be a configuration option currently available. Are there any plans to get this implemented in another version or is this an option we are not seeing?

HELP: Editing post_parent directly in database not working.

Published on June 27th, 2017 by Papat0k

Hello,

I am using WordPress 4.8 and bbPress 2.6-beta-2.

I had to do a batch import of topics from csv, and all went well enough. The only aspect I was unable to cover was the parent forum field. I have found my parent forum id and used a mysql command to insert the forum ID (which is 290 in this case) into all rows where post_excerpt meets a condition. This all worked. For reference here is the mysql command:
update wp_posts set post_parent=’290′ where post_excerpt=’CONDITION’;

The issue I’m having is that although post_parent displays the correct parent forum ID within the database, on the frontend of my site none of these topics register as having a parent forum. Under “Topics” they still all say “No Forum,” and they are not listed on the forum page. Funny enough, the breadcrumbs show the correct path when looking at the individual topics (i.e., PARENT FORUM >> POST_TITLE).

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Header on “Create New Topic Page”

Published on June 27th, 2017 by y0st22

Hello 2 questions:

1)I am looking for some help as to how I can get the dark header on http://youdownwithgpp.com/forums/forum/mlb/ to match http://youdownwithgpp.com/forums

Where can this be accomplished? Is there a specific file I need to edit to call the header?

2) I would like to add a sidebar to the right of my forum. I read the article on here and tried the steps to create a side bar, but with no avail. Looking for some help on this.

Thanks in advance!

PHP Version

Published on June 27th, 2017 by nizami

Just lost and regained forums on one of my sites. Host support wrote:

We had upgraded php to 7.1 earlier this week. It appears that BBPress may not currently be compatible with the latest PHP. We have rolled back to PHP 5.6 and the forums are working again. However, to make sure that all sites are working on the suggested standards set by the WordPress core team, we will be upgrading all instances to PHP 7.1 within the next two months. It is possible that BBPress may make updates improving the compatibility in that time, but it is never a bad idea to be proactive on that front.

So what’s the deal with BBPRess PHP version compatibility please?

Link to latest post

Published on June 27th, 2017 by theredeclipse

Hello,

I’m trying to make a link to a latest topic in forum page. I achieved topic name by bbp_forum_last_topic_title function, but can’t figure out how to get a link for latest topic.

I’ve tried to pull out something like this, but it links to forum index.
<p><a href="<?php echo $link; ?>"><?php bbp_forum_last_topic_title(); ?></a></p>

Change Editor Display

Published on June 27th, 2017 by KeiGirl

BBPress 2.5.12 WordPress 4.8

I’ve search high and low but haven’t been able to find any resolve to this. I’ve used different plugins to help with my problem but haven’t been able to get exactly what I want. I’ve made a screen-capture of what my problem is. Can someone with knowledge please tell me how to remove the html editor from showing below the visual editor? I want to see the html editor only when the text/html tab is clicked. It’s confusing with the html just below the visual editor like that. I’ve tried the display:none but it the html editor was also not showing when I clicked the text/html tab.
