Hi all,

I have one forum, where is several under-forums and topics. Example we have forums Ice Hockey, Baseball, Football etc.

1) If somebody write something to totally wrong topic in area “Ice Hockey” so how can I Move it to area Baseball?

2) There is only one move tool but I cant move things only inside in the same topic, not move it to the other place?

Is there any tool that I can get more opportunities what I can do for new messages which are totally in wrong place?

Hi everyone,

I just created a new plugin for bbPress called Friends For bbPress. This plugin allows users to add friends on their bbPress forums. It’s simple to use and is a great feature for any bbPress forum. You can download the plugin using the link below.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/friends-for-bbpress/

This is the first plugin I have ever created so let me know what you guys think. If you have any ideas for additional features I would be more than happy to implement them.

I needed to add a Login/Logout link in one of my navigation menus.

Using this from the bbpress docs got my link to work, but how would I add this link into another menu? For example, the link went into the menu below my logo in the header, but I would like to use it in my very top menu (above the logo).

bbPress 2.5.5 is out. It prevents 3 potential security related issues, and is a strongly suggested update for all bbPress 2.x installations:

1. Improved bulk editing of users
2. Improved suggesting of topics & authors for moderators
3. Improved converter tool access

Check the 2.5 milestone for a comprehensive changelog of fixes.

I seem to have two forums created, but I prefer the layout of one over the other. I’ve been trying to get my forum page to direct to the page with the layout I prefer, but it will only direct to the other. I’ve tried to change the forum slug to absolutely no avail.

I’m using WordPress 4.1.1, bbPress 2.5.4 and my site is http://artintheblood.net.

The forum I would LIKE to use is http://artintheblood.net/forums/
The forum I keep getting stuck with is the same domain name with /forum/ instead of /forums/

Any help is sincerely appreciated!

I’m having another problem on my board: Topic posts are visible, but replies are not. They aren’t visible by the person replying, by the person who started the topic or by the keymaster.

I’ve disabled a few plugins without any luck. Replies were visible yesterday, and I don’t know what I could have done overnight to mess this up.

Thanks for your help!

I have a question about my forum(s), but each time I go to post my question here on this Troubleshooting forum, my post doesn’t appear. When I go to my profile, it shows that I have not posted a topic. Can anyone help me? Is the post awaiting moderation? If so, how long does that take? Thanks!

Hello,

My name is Matt Conway, just joined the site. I would like to know how easy it is to run a bbPress forum. The only thing I’ve ever used before is iWeb; I enjoyed it’s simplicity but I’m not stupid and I know there will be a learning curve.

Our local council here are planning to redevelop the town centre with high rise apartments. There is a lot of local anger about this and I think a forum is the best way to get people talking. I’d like to know: Is it within the bounds of someone with no programming knowledge, but a desire to learn, to set up and moderate a bbPress forum?

I would start as simply as possible, but over the course of time would like to do the following things:

1 – Run the forum from a name I have just registered: www.walthamforestforum.org

2 – Make users register before being able to post – add someway to deter spammers

3 – Make it possible for users to add photos

4 – Make it possible for users to vote on issues

5 – Make it possible for users to sign a petition (could be just a link to another petition site)

6 – Make it possible for users to “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” other people’s comments

6 – Start a diary of upcoming local events (maybe best in another part of the site?)

7 – Start a sub-forum that lists local tradesmen, shops etc; where users can add to an accumulated star rating and add comments on the tradesmen’s individual thread

How much of this is possible on bbPress? Should I instead be looking at phpBB?

Thanks, Matt.
