All Users can see category and topics but only certain roles have access toreply

Published on July 11th, 2015 by stiffmeister12

I am having trouble with one aspect of bbpress right now. I want to create one specific category of my forum so that everyone one can see it even logged out users but only certain roles can reply and post to that topic in the category. What plugin do I need for this? I tried private groups plugin but non authorized users just get sent to a page not displayed page I want everyone to see the posts but only certain roles can reply or post to that category. Thanks.

Members cannot see private topics

Published on July 10th, 2015 by mglasser

Our forum is open to members only, utilizing private forums and private topics. Something happened and my Participant users can no longer open private topics. Setting aside the “something happened”, how can I verify that my users all have the read_private_topics and read_private_replies capability? If they do not, how can I give them all that capability? We have about 3,000 users, so it cannot be done one at a time.

If they do have read_private_topics and read_private_replies capability, what could be another cause for them being able to see the private categories and forums, but not see the list of topics or see the topics directly?

Thanks,
Mike

change bbpress default theme

Published on July 10th, 2015 by PascalKroeze

Hi guys,

In the passed I created a website with bbpress.
The default bbpress theme was horrible bad readable.
So I found a way to change the theme so it would match my wordpress theme.
After update the theme got reset to the default bbpress theme again.

Now I have created a new wordpress website.
I stumble at the same problem again.

Is there something simple how I can change the bbpress theme (user friendly)
I have been reading forums and this is really giving me an headache, all solution are based on editing files, creating child theme ccs files etc etc, all complicated stuff.

There must be something user friendly to change the default bbpress theme right?
Is does not have to match my wordpress theme, if I can just select something different that would be great.

Friendly regards,

Pascal

Published on July 9th, 2015 by Haley

A category in my forum lets people write there stories and update it throughout the months. So I’m looking for a Plugin or Code that can make the Topic Closed for comments from everybody, except the Author of the Topic. Is this possible?

How can I redirect to /forum after login?

Published on July 9th, 2015 by ccarlow

New install of bbpress v2.7.5 on wordpress v4.2.2

Question: How can I redirect to /forum after login? I have forum page set as a private page. bbpress forums need to be private and only accessed by registered users.

I have searched for info on how to login/register and then redirect to a forum and haven’t been successful in finding a simple solutions. Some solutions look too complicated regarding writing code. I would assume there is a simple solution here.

I have tried a redirect plugin (peter’s) and doesn’t work for bbpress users set with any bbpress role but does work if I login in as wp-admin with wp admin rights.

bbPress login widget causes internal error

Published on July 9th, 2015 by Krissieg

Hi there,

I’m having issues with setting up the login part of my forum.
I created a lost-password page and a register page as instructed and then added the bbPress login widget to my page. However, the site does’t like it and gives me this error page with the message:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, you@example.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

When I remove the bbPress login widget then the forums page opens fine.

Please help!

Thank you

Changing Bulk Action Role Removes bbPress Role

Published on July 9th, 2015 by howl2154

WordPress 4.2.2
bbPress Version 2.5.7
s2Member Pro Framework Version 150311

From Users when using Bulk Actions to change an s2Member Role (from e.g. Free Subscriber to Level 1) bbPress Forum Role changes from e.g. Participant to No Role.

Updating Role 1 User at a time (clicking Username then Edit User) bbPress Forum Role remains Participant. So no problem updating Users 1 at a time.
