bbPress.org

Hello I am interested in setting up bbpress but I already have a forum software that is using the page named Forums. Is this going to cause problems or can I set the default page to use as a different page? Say Forum instead?

OK. I know this exist. I see people talking about it, but I have no idea how to create the link to it.

Where is the member profile page? How do I add a link to my menu for people to access their profile an update it.

I don’t see shortcode, I don’t see it as a menu link… I just don’t see it.

But do see I can click the name of someone who post to the forum and see their profile. So it does exist.

I just can’t find any documentation on how to add a link to a members profile page to the menu.

Please help. Thanks.

I am looking for a WordPress forum plugin for an educational environment, and came across bbPress. It has many promising features, but there is one essential feature I need for which I cannot find confirmation in the documentation whether it is available in bbPress. This is it:

When a user (student) posts for the first time to a forum — typically in answer to the question related to that specific forum — I want they cannot read the available forum posts until they have submitted their first post: I see nothing/I submit my first post/now I see all other posts.

This is a ‘trick’ often used in educational settings, because it stimulates every student to think about the question from scratch, unbiased by the previous answers. Such an approach stimulates a larger diversity of answers.

Is such a tool available in bbpress?

Thanks for your insight!

I have a forum that I wanted to protect for my members only. I have Wishlist-member installed and activated, but bbpress topics and replies seem erratic when I try the protection. So I removed all protections to make sure that the issue is not with bbPress or even my Theme (Tesseract).

What I found out is that even with my protections all off, bbPress is not diplaying my Topic, only the replies to them. I have 3 topics. Is there a way you could help? Here are the topics:

Market Commentary

Theta Gain / Losses

PCCRC to Genie

Incidentally, when I am logged in as admin, I do see the original posts (topic).

Hello,

i want to show the most recent 5 topics instead of 15.

How can i do this?

Thx

Hey guys,

just stumbled over a small 500 error in the functions file:

AH01071: Got error 'PHP message: PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: [] operator not supported for strings in /var/www/vhosts/mydomain/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/functions.php:1854
Stack trace:

Should be fixeable, ln 1850-1854 is in the bbp_pre_get_posts_normalize_forum_visibility function and looks like this:

// Get any existing meta queries
$meta_query   = $posts_query->get( 'meta_query' );

// Add our meta query to existing
$meta_query[] = $forum_ids;

adding an array check to ln 1850 should suffice (i do actually not know what one’s trying to achieve here, so this is just a quickfix):

$meta_query   = is_array( $posts_query->get( 'meta_query' ) ) ? $posts_query->get( 'meta_query' ) : array( $posts_query->get( 'meta_query' ) );

side-note: wp version 4.7.3, bbpress version 2.5.12, php version 7.1.3

Cheers,

Hi there,

I am looking for a way to set my revolution slider above every topic.
The forum itself does have a slider on top of it since i edited/added it manually.
Now when i edit a topic (back-end) and i put my slider on top, it works, but only for that topic.
Is there a way to make this standard for every topic that’s being created?

Greetings

Looking to filter/replace all instances of <img src="http:// with <img src="https:// is there any hooks that allow this to happen on topic/reply creation and edit?

Hey
I am trying to figure out how to remove the field Website and Mail from the Your Information for my guest. I cant seem to find an answer anywhere.

This is the line I am trying to delete but I can’t find where it is to delete it.
