Cannot create topics in new forum

Published on October 17th, 2016 by heideli

Hello,

I’m using WP 4.6.1 and bbpress 2.5.10 with bbp private groups 3.2.6.

When starting a new forum I cannot create new topics. I have no idea what’s wrong because I never had problems before and I didn’t change anything. Any idea would be appreciated, thank you!

Display is Cluttered, not like Documentation

Published on October 16th, 2016 by kentwest

Caveat: I’m new to WordPress, themes, CSS, and bbPress.

I’ve got a website that seems to be working properly (using the hueman theme (well, actually, hueman-child)), and have installed bbPress, and created a forum page, but the form is cluttered. It looks like:
What my bbPress forum looks like instead of like how the documentation shows it to look:
How the documentation shows a bbPress forum to look

I’ve deactivated all my plugins except bbPress, and have tried all 6 or 7 of my installed WordPress themes, but nothing seems to help? Suggestions? Thanks!

Cannot change Role

Published on October 16th, 2016 by Jason

I added a new user, but cannot change their role in the list of users. I check the box on the left of their username, then go to the top dropdown “Change forum role to…” and change it, but there is no effect. The only way I can change the role is to edit their profile individually, rather than using the Bulk method. I am going to be importing 160 users and cannot find a way to pre-populate the Forum Role field, so I’d like to save time by being able to change Forum Roles in bulk by putting a checkmark next to each user and performing the change all at once.

I am using the default Twenty Sixteen WordPress theme in use while testing this plugin.

Does anyone know about this limitation or bug?

Do I need to take special care of bbpress when moving site to new host?

Published on October 15th, 2016 by Torkel

I will be moving my website to a new host, it will keep the same URL, but not the same password/username/hostname for mysql/the database.

I’m using akeeba to move my wordpress site where I’m using bbpress as a plugin, complete with wordpress’ databases.

Does anyone know if bbpress will be fully moved and operational using this method? Akeeba should (I think?) move bbPress’ databases, but is there a place where I’ll have to change username/password/hostname for mysql in bbpress?

(Alternatively, is there a simple way to backup all the content on the forum and import them on the new webhost after doing a clean install of bbpress in case akeeba doesn’t take care of things?)

BuddyPress Group Forums Conditionals

Published on October 15th, 2016 by Milan Petrovic

Hi,

Does anyone know how to use bbPress conditionals when bbPress is used for group forums? None of the bbp_is_ functions is working outside of the bbPress templates, and the point of the conditional functions is to have them work outside of the bbPress own template so that some other piece of code knows what is the page context. I am trying to use these functions inside the page BODY.

So, how to determine which forum is loaded as group forum, which topic is currently displayed, and anything else related to subpages for edit of topics and replies?

how to add “New Posts” link to display all recent posts/topics since last visit?

Published on October 14th, 2016 by zoldos

Loving bbPress, but I can’t seem to find a simple way to add a button/link that will display new posts/topics since a member’s last visit.

This is a common feature on almost any forum.
