topics not in forums

Published on March 14th, 2015 by RitaNow

My site is basically crashed. I can now see the wp-admin. I had all the plugins turned off. I turned the bbpress plugins back on.

MAIN DISCUSSION FORUM

The site shows the forums but no topics in the forums. A forum will say there are XX topics and XX replies but the next line says “Oh bother! Not topics were found here!

MAIN DISCUSSION FORUM

In wp-admin, I can see all the topics listed but the forum column shows (no forum). So to me, it appears there is a database problem. I’ve been talking with the hosting company, Blue Host, and they can’t do anything. I’ve tried restoring the database and repairing the database, but to no avail. In other suggestions?

Breadcrumbs Styling

Published on March 13th, 2015 by dmhorus

Where is the styling for forum breadcrumbs defined? I assumed it was somewhere in a css file (already using a child theme) but I cannot locate anything related. Do I need to define my own? If so, where?

bbPress WP Tweak – Right Justified Text Sidebar

Published on March 13th, 2015 by teamoo

Hello.

I recently installed the ‘bbPress WP tweak’ plugin. It looks like it’s going to work great with one flaw. All of my right sidebars text is left justified. But the ‘bbPress WP tweak’ sidebar’s text is right justified and looks wrong.

Does anyone know where I can come up with a fix for this?

Thank you!

Subscribe Users to a forum

Published on March 13th, 2015 by dimplefaceCT

If I would like people to subscribe to a forum so I can moderate who can join, how/where do I set that up? I don’t just want all email subscribers to be able to use the forum, I want only those who attend my seminars to have access to the forum.

Thank you for your help!

says 1 year ago?!?

Published on March 13th, 2015 by nolimit966

Hi, im trying to add the last post time to loop-single-forum.php so it displays the last post time from the sub forums inside of it.

The only problem is its saying ‘1 year, 3 months ago’ which is when the forum was made rather than when the last post was.

Anyone know how I can show the last post time instead please?

Thank you

New Topic Form Shortcode Issue

Published on March 13th, 2015 by mvaneijgen

‘Normal’ users get the message “You cannot create new topics.” when you add echo do_shortcode ('

You must be logged in to create new topics.

');

This is a similar topic to this message created almost three years ago, has anyone a solution for the current (latest) version of bbpress and wordpress.

How do I create a forum?

Published on March 13th, 2015 by dimplefaceCT

Maybe I am really illiterate, but the instructions say install it and create some forums. But how? I added a new forum, but I don’t see how I customize it or set up topics or set up so only certain people can subscribe to it. Is there a video I can watch on how to start? Thanks for the help.

wordpress breadcrumbs don't display the topics – help

Published on March 13th, 2015 by nolimit966

Hi,

Im using a bespoke WordPress theme for my site which ive created myself.

Ive fully customized BBpress & put the theme inside my WP theme too.

So far so good, it looks great & works fine too. But one problem is that the Breadcrumbs at the top of my page throughout the website only display:

Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum

If i then go into the GENERAL DISCUSSION SUB FORUM / TOPIC I get the following:

Home / Forum / General Discussion

Instead i should be getting:

Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum / General Discussion

If i then go to click a topic in general discussion I get:

Home / Forum / Hello all forum members, what do you prefer?

instead of

Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum / General Discussion / Hello all forum members, what do you prefer?

The current code I have written in my functions.php for the breadcrumbs is:

<?php
function the_breadcrumb() {
    global $post;
    $post_type = $post->post_type;
    echo '<ul id="breadcrumbs">';
	if(get_post_type() == 'forum' OR get_post_type() == 'topic' OR get_post_type() == 'reply') {
		
	  echo '<li><a href="';
        echo get_option('home');
        echo '">';
        echo '<i class="ts-awesome-home" style="font-size:14px;letter-spacing: 2px;"></i> Home';
        echo '</a></li><li class="separator"> / </li>';
		echo '<a href="https://hub.driveworks.co.uk/forums/forum/">Forum</a>';
		echo ' &nbsp;/&nbsp; ';
		echo  the_title();

	}

    elseif (!is_home()) {
        echo '<li><a href="';
        echo get_option('home');
        echo '">';
        echo '<i class="ts-awesome-home" style="font-size:14px;letter-spacing: 2px;"></i> Home';
        echo '</a></li><li class="separator"> / </li>';
        if (is_category() || is_single()) {
            echo '<li>';
            the_category(' </li><li class="separator"> / </li><li> ');
            if (is_single()) {
                echo '</li><li class="separator"> / </li><li>';
                the_title();
                echo '</li>';
            }
        } 
		
		elseif (is_page()) {
            if($post->post_parent){
                $anc = get_post_ancestors( $post->ID );
                $title = get_the_title();
                foreach ( $anc as $ancestor ) {
                    $output = '<li><a href="'.get_permalink($ancestor).'" title="'.get_the_title($ancestor).'">'.get_the_title($ancestor).'</a></li> <li class="separator">/</li>'.$output;
                }
                echo $output;
                echo '<span title="'.$title.'"> '.$title.'</span>';
            } else {
                echo '<li><span> '.get_the_title().'</span></li>';
            }
        }
		
    }
   
}

?>

Any anyone help with the child navigation of this please?

Thank you

bbPress and security (wp-admin etc)

Published on March 13th, 2015 by booknerds

Hey there,

well, I’m not sure if this is the right subforum, so please feel free to

I am running a site where we have admins, authors and editors (which can review editors’ posts before putting them on-air). So, since now, we protected our WP backend with .htpasswd and .htaccess so no one could register/login without knowing the credentials for this extra anti-brute-foce gate.

Now I decided to stop using phpBB and switching to bbPress for my website, and as it seems, I need to remove the htaccess/htpasswd thingy to open up WP for all users to make it possible for people to register for the forums.

This makes me become concerned about the security of my site because anyone can register then – spammers as well as those brute-forcing id***s.

So, what can you recommend to have a WP website running bbPress while keeping the security level as high as possible?

Using: bbpress 2.5.5 | WP 4.1.1 | SmartMag Theme | http://www.booknerds.de (forum not on-air yet)
