Convert mailing list

Published on May 21st, 2017 by ruperty

Hello,
I am considering bbPress. I would like to migrate posts from an old style mailing list into a modern forum.

Is there a current way of doing this?

If not, I may write a Java application for this purpose. Is it practical then to access the bbPress database directly for the Java code in order to insert posts? I’d like to retain the original timestamps. I’d also need to create users, associated with the email addresses of the posters.

Regards,
Rupert

bbPress gets deactivated by custom mu-function

Published on May 20th, 2017 by dominikb

Hi folks,
i added the following code to a php file in the /mu-plugins/ folder, to deactivate a plugin for logged-in users:

add_filter( 'option_active_plugins', 'disable_logged_in_plugin' );
 
function disable_logged_in_plugin( $plugins ) {

    require (ABSPATH . WPINC . '/pluggable.php');
    if ( is_user_logged_in() & !is_admin() ) {
        $key = array_search( 'bloom/bloom.php' , $plugins );
        if ( false !== $key ) {
            unset( $plugins[ $key ] );
        } 
    }
    return $plugins;
}

Strangely bbPress gets also deactivated by it, while all other plugins run without any problem.

Do you have an idea why this happens and what to change?

Regards
Dominik

Forums that are visible to everyone but only certain roles can reply

Published on May 20th, 2017 by msbismil

Hello, I want to know whether it is possible or not. I have a forum showing in forum index. I want it to be visible to every participant or any visitor and search engine too. But replies to be allowed for only one or two types of roles.
For example:
I have a forum named “Library”. I want it to be visible and shown to everyone. But no user can reply to the topics except the ones with role “Librarian”.
Thank you in advance for your useful replies.

bbpress topics for posts plugin

Published on May 19th, 2017 by davebevan

I am trying to replace my comments on posts with bbpress topics. This plugin is working for the most part…I’m able to auto create new topics of my published posts on the forum. However, my comment box has disappeared on the posts. There is a comment button to click. But when clicked, there is nothing displayed for posting comments.

I have found out that this is a theme issue and not a plugin issue. When I change to a different theme, such as a WordPress default theme, the plugin works. However, I do not want to lose my current theme. Does anyone know if there is any css code I can add to my theme in order to make the bbpress comment box to appear on the WordPress posts.

Error on common/functions with WP 4.7.5

Published on May 18th, 2017 by Stefano Lissa

Hi, after the upgrade to WP 4.7.5 in the panels of Awesome Support (a plugin which uses post type) I get this error:

Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in /home/thenewsl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/functions.php on line 1446

with bbPress 2.5.12. On that line bbPress check a provate variable of $wp assuming it should be an array. Probably Awesome Support forces in some way that variable to not be an array. Anyway probably bbPress should add a check “is_array()”.

Here the line of commonn/functions.php

if ( in_array( ‘post_parent__in’, $wp->private_query_vars ) )

I’ve changed it to

if ( is_array($wp->private_query_vars) && in_array( ‘post_parent__in’, $wp->private_query_vars ) )

to remove the warning.

Thank you, Stefano.

Hi,

I’d like to have a search box that only searches topics but forum & replies. What file or hooks should I change? Please enlighten me 🙁 Thanks.

In ‘mobile device’, ‘Profile Box’ is big and ‘content area’ is small.

Published on May 18th, 2017 by DolZikoo

Hi.

Service: https://www.dolzikoo.com

In ‘Mobile device’, ‘Profile box’ is big and ‘Content area’ is small.

I want to reduce the size of ‘Profile box’ in ‘Mobile device’ or move it somewhere else.

If that is not possible, I would like to remove ‘Profile box’ when viewing from ‘Mobile device’.

API for bbPress forum?

Published on May 17th, 2017 by prana3stil

Hello there!

1.)
I am trying to have 3 way access to bbPress forum:
– open access to some topics
– closed access to some topics only registered and logedin users can see
– closed access to some topics with direct URL access (i would call it from windows application with predifined user/pass combination, so user does not need to login in in web page as this infor would be somehow sent over URL); needed for FAQ directly from windows app

2.)
Is there multi levet access for registered users?
So I can asign some closed (registered only) topics to some registered users only (not all registered)? Idea is to give access to topics with paid content and every user has access only to topics he has paid.

Thank a lot in advance for help!
