Hi,
I would like to add private forums. So I set my forums to private and I create a private page with
shortcode (slug of this page is ‘forums’). After this, I add the forum page to my top menu.
But nothing works for guest visitors :
– I see the forum page in menu even if I’m not logged in.
– If I’m not logged in and I click on forum page, I’ve a 404.
If user is logged, it works.
What’s the problem ? How can I hide menu item to non-logged users ?
Thanks.

Hello!
Tell me, please, in what file you can edit the сascading style sheets for forum on bbpress?
– To change the font size (too small).
– To change the order of sub-forums – that was a column (and not in line).
* bbPress version – 2.5.7

In a WordPress 4.2.2 installation, using bbPress 2.5.7, I am importing data from a PHPBB3 3.1.4 installation. Both PHPBB and WP4.2.2/BBPress 2.5.7 are on the same server.
The import of data (a MySQL database of about 95MB) includes ONLY “replies.” And those imported replies are added to the DB as posts, but those posts are not visible in the WP Admin (they can be seen using a DB tool like PHPMyAdmin). NO forums are imported.
Running Repair Forums tools all work successfully, except the following:
Recalculating reply menu order … No reply positions to recalculate!
Counting the number of topics in each forum… Failed!
Repairing BuddyPress group-forum relationships… Failed!
Counting the number of topics each user has created… Failed!
Counting the number of topics to which each user has replied… Failed!
Counting the number of replies in each forum… Failed!
Basically, so far, I cannot import any data from a PHPBB3 installation, except “replies”.
The PHPBB3 installation is fully functional. It works properly.
Based on the information above, who can give me guidance toward a solution?
Many thanks for your time.
Bill

Hi all, I am hoping that y’all can help me or at least allay some anxiety.
I am using WordPress 4.2.2 and b Pres 2.5.7. Guest users posting is unselected and the menu does not even display forums unless the user is logged in. If you know the URL and try to enter it directly you will get a 404 page. I am also using bb P private groups 3.0.7. Registered users are only allowed as spectators until promoted AND placed in one of the private groups.
So today I deleted a user from the site and chose to delete all content. Later I found out he had posted to the forums complaining about his “treatment”. It was under “Anonymous” and showed the role of “Participant”. I also noted that his other posts, which I had not deleted showed “Anonymous” for the user. I have since deleted all of his posts and blocked the posting IP.
The questions are these. Is there an exploit or some known issue where an anonymous user can post even though no guests can even see the forums, much less post in them? OR, was he able to still see the menu item and post as anonymous because his previous posts were still there?
If the latter then I can rest a little easier as it should be handled. However if anyone knows why this happened, I’d be obliged if it could be explained.
Thanks,
Kyle

Hey bbpress people. I am having a trouble with my forum. The replies look like they are getting cut off. The original is fine. Take a look for yourself. Here is the URL of an example thread. http://www.calledoutracing.com/forums/Topic/cadillac-ats-choices/ . Please help me fix this. I cannot change my theme as it would hav a huge impact on my site. Thanks.

My site holds topics/posts in moderation when a user submits a post containing blocked words. However, the user receives no indication that their post is being held for moderation. So they re-post. And re-post.
Here’s what I’m looking to do:
1) user posts a topic with a blocked word (ex. “Namor”)
2) User clicks “Post”
3) A message appears on the page: “Your post is currently awaiting moderation, since it contains words blocked by our system.”
4) Post does not display for user or moderator until it is approved.

I’ve searched but not found a solution. I’m running the current version of WordPress on a multisite network with a new install of bbPress.
I’m the superadmin of the network and everything works great. However, when I try to give access to another user and give that user a keymaster role the links in the admin bar for Forums, Topics, and Replies is missing.
So far I’ve tried running the repair tool with no change. I can even access the tools with the login that doesn’t show the admin bar links. The forum is located here: q4intel.softwiredweb.net.

Hello to all
Could anyone say me why is not working “Submit button” of BBpress in my theme and why I can’t see manually created topics from the admin control panel?
The web is: http://probando555 DOT esy.es/forums/
Thanks a lot

I’ve been using bbpress plugin to set up forums for my website’s users. Originally there is no function when it comes to ‘counting views’ of each post. So I added some codes according to this website’s advice.
It works fine with general(sitewide) forums but when I made a group(buddypress function) and tried to integrate it with bbpress forum, the view count php code does not work in group forums. (Still, it works perfectly fine at sitewide forums)
this is my code right now (wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-topic.php)
<li class="bbp-topic-voice-count">
<?php
if( !function_exists('get_wpbbp_post_view') ) :
// get bbpress topic view counter
function get_wpbbp_post_view($postID){
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==''){
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
return "0";
}
return $count;
}
function set_wpbbp_post_view($postID) {
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if( $count == '' ){
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '1');
} else {
$new_count = $count + 1;
update_post_meta($postID, $count_key, $new_count);
}
}
endif;
if( !function_exists('add_wpbbp_topic_counter') ) :
// init the view counter in bbpress single topic
function add_wpbbp_topic_counter() {
global $wp_query;
$bbp = bbpress();
$active_topic = $bbp->current_topic_id;
set_wpbbp_post_view( $active_topic );
}
add_action('bbp_template_after_single_topic', 'add_wpbbp_topic_counter');
endif;
echo get_wpbbp_post_view( bbp_get_topic_id() ); ?>
</li>

Hi,
I am using BBPRESS for my website, I checked this option from backend:
“Embed media (YouTube, Twitter, Flickr, etc…) directly into topics and replies”
but only administrator can embed youtube and other embed just reflect the IFRAME code.
can you help what I am missing, I need it to be allowed for CONTRIBUTORS to embed the youtube embed code.
Thanks Sanny
