Anonymous posting for logged in users

Published on March 27th, 2016 by erikture

Hello!

I am planing to install bbPress on my site running the latest version of WordPress.
However I have a rather “strange” requirement.
On the site we have a private part where the users logs in with username and password.
The problem is that all users use the same username. We have tried to give each member an individual username but without any success. They will not remember their username or password. The information on the protected part is not personalized so it is not accturally a problem that they use the same username.

My problem is that when they then post to bbPress all users will post as this generic user. Is it possible to force the anonymous posting layout even for logged in users? This will force them to enter their name and emailadress and we can figure out who has posted what.

vBulletin import de-sync problem

Published on March 26th, 2016 by alfio8788

Hello everyone,

After a fight with vbulletin and mysql i was able to (partially) import our vbulletin forum to bbpress (an estimated import time was 12 days for a full import, we decided to run such a task only for the last import that will go live) but sadly the import is totally out of sync resulting in this kind of problems:

1) Threads are posted by the wrong user
2) Replies are posted with the wrong user
3) Links to user profiles randomly missing (but possible to load by requesting the profile right away from URL)

Repairs after import were executed (with the exception of bbp-sync-all-reply-positions, it always times out even if the php execution time is set to insanely high values such as 3000 seconds).

If this is caused by the interruption of the import process just let me know right away and we will create a copy of the vbulletin database and keep a smaller set of data for our tests and then import everything once our testing is done.

WordPress /author/ page and bbPress /user/ page

Published on March 26th, 2016 by dalemiles

Hey guys.

I’ve tried searching about this but not really been able to find a definitive answer, especially for my own situation.

I currently have a live site, where users NEED to use WordPress default domain.com/author/username

Currently when you go to the profile of a poster in the bbPress forum it takes you to a different user page domain.com/user/username

I need this to direct to domain.com/author/username as the default WordPress profile contains information about the user (feedback ratings, post details + more – its a classified site).

Now I’m not 100% fussed on whether the domain.com/author/username page displays post details, as the ‘forum’ I’ve having is a single forum and more like a general chat area of the site. I’m not looking to setup a fully fledged forum.

However the most important thing is having their profiles direct to their author page instead of their bbPress user page.

If there is code I can place in the author.php file (WordPress one) that will check their bbPress details regarding their posts, that would be great. I’ve tried copying the code from bbPress user-profile.php but that didn’t work.

Can any one offer any assistance? I’d deeply appreciate it.

Thanks

bbPress: Version 2.5.8
WordPress: Version 4.4.2
Website: www.airsofttrader.co.nz (You can see the example of author pages, however bbPress is not installed on the live site – its installed locally.)

Allow members to trash their own topics based on edit time

Published on March 25th, 2016 by tech55541

Hello,
I am starting a new thread because all the searches I found come up 1-5 years old and I do not trust some of the code when I do not know how to read it very well.

I would like to allow participants to be able to trash (not delete) their replies and posts if they are still allowed to edit them based on the edit time provided in BBPress settings. Can you please give me some code to achieve this?

Thanks.

hide Home Menu on bbPress pages

Published on March 25th, 2016 by stewmills

I have:
WP 4.4.2
bbPress 2.5.8
BuddyPress 2.4.3
Karma theme 3.0.3

Please see my forum home page here: www.cytoviva.com/userforum/

What I want to do is hide the “white area” with the logo and menu (products, gallery, etc.) ONLY on bbpress forum pages, not the rest of the non-forum pages. Here is the code for my bbPress.php page created from copying another template page and saving it in my child theme (as instructed).

Can anyone tell me what to edit/remove from this page to just remove the home menu, but LEAVE the main top menu (home, about us, client sites) in blue?

I have tried several things and can’t seem to get anywhere.

Thanks in advance!!!
