Edit user topics/replies

Published on April 10th, 2016 by fenixbazaar2

Hi there,

I would like to enable a feature whereby I can edit a user’s total post count and topic count. I have created a new forum and many members have come from another now-closed forum, and I would like to edit their post and topic count to reflect their counts on the previous site.

Is there a plugin that does this? Been looking but can’t find.

Site is : http://fenixbazaar.com

How to mark topic as featured?

Published on April 10th, 2016 by Valery Kondakoff

Hello!

I’m setting a news section on my frontpage using the plugin ‘Posts in Sidebar’ which can filter and display topics (with excerpts) by forums and taxonomy. I want to be able to manually mark selected topics as featured (to be displayed on frontage). What is the best practice to do this?

The easiest way to do this seems to use tags. Say: display on frontage every topic tagged ‘featured’. But how can I limit access to the ‘featured’ tag to admins only, so only admins can set topics as featured?

Maybe there is a way to set a custom checkbox ‘featured’ to the topic post type to filter the featured posts which will be accessible by admins only?

Any other ideas? Can you, please, recommend a best way to mark several topics to be included in frontpage?

Thank you in advance!

Not receiving emails for new topics

Published on April 9th, 2016 by wschaefer1

I’m using WordPress Version 4.4.2 and
BuddyPress Version 2.5.2
Site: http://www.greenvillespinners.com

I’m not receiving emails for new topics. I have tried everything. Disabled plugins, checked and am not using noreply@… I’ve checked and changed the settings one by one. Still can’t get anything.

Set up another account with another email to test with. Sometimes, only sometimes I will get an email from the other account if they start a new topic. But if I (as admin) start a new topic, the other account doesn’t get an email and neither do I.

Notifications of emails to and from that account work fine.

Please help!!! Thank you.

Suggest Import Version Numbers

Published on April 9th, 2016 by thelaw

Several months ago I tried to import a phpbb 3.1 forum into bbpress. Sadly it didn’t work. It was frustrating because the description says it works. It would be very beneficial to have version numbers and dates associated with anything associated with bbpress, including importers. Otherwise it’s a constant source of frustration downloading, trying, failing. No need to have done so in the first place if the version number was already a part. Thanks for the consideration.

Help! Avatar slides to the upper left when viewing topic on small screens.

Published on April 9th, 2016 by Valery Kondakoff

Hello!

I’m using bbPress 2.5.8 with theme Twenty Sixteen (WP 4.4.2). Accidentally I noticed, that when viewing topic on a devices with small screen (less than 414×736) all of the author avatars are sliding to the upper left. Here is a screenshot: Screenshot

I tried to install bbPress on a fresh WP install and the avatar does not seems to slide, when viewing in small screens. So, I deactivated all the plugins, removed all known theme modifications, css styles, but avatar is still misplaced.

Here is a link to the test topic: http://rugby-forum.ru/wp2/forums/topic/test/ Can you please, take a look and guess what may be wrong here and how to fix this?

Thank you in advance!

Overriding !important in bbPress CSS?

Published on April 8th, 2016 by Bet Hannon

I need to override the default CSS color for
.bbp-topics-front ul.super-sticky, .bbp-topics ul.super-sticky, .bbp-topics ul.sticky, .bbp-forum-content ul.sticky

But the default color declaration has an !important in it. What’s the best way to fix this so my color will display? I know I could hack the plugin CSS, but that’s not the best option. šŸ™‚

current user is being initialized without using $wp->init()

Published on April 8th, 2016 by ma3ry

Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init(). in /path/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3787

I am using Simple Membership and BuddyPress in addition to bbPress so i imagine this is an integration issue. Is there a way to resolve it?

Thank you.

bbPress/Buddypress user name not in sync

Published on April 7th, 2016 by cmavrikas

Hello,

I have a WordPress/BuddyPress/bbPress installation.

I have noticed that in all activity coming from the blog ow the social network functionality of BuddyPress, the user name displayed is the one filled bythe user during registration as the on e to be shown in the community.

On the other hand, in bbPress forums and in the activity stream related to the forums, the user name displayed is the login required name of the user.

Is there a way to sync these and display in bbPress the “community name” too?

Thank you
