    @placementmantra You have already been asked by @hnla to stop opening old threads. Not to be rude but isn’t it ironic that your asking for help with spam yet your kinda being spammy yourself. Anyway try this plugin, it is in beta but it may work for you:

    Download the beta version that has support for BP and bbPress.

    @Chouf1 amazing insight. Thank you. I may have to get rid of Salutation theme – each time I ask them for most basic stuff on how their theme works with BuddyPress, they refer me to BuddyPress support. And their entire sales pitch is based on their theme being BuddyPRess and bbPress compatible. Just on that sales pitch, they sold over 4,400 themes as you can se here: http://themeforest.net/item/salutation-wordpress-buddypress-theme/548199

    Thanks again.

    Hi Fee … looks like I’m making some progress and I’ve answered some of my questions and I’m starting to understand how bbPress and BP work individually and together. Let me keep going and hopefully I should be fine. Thanks for your help.

    Hi Ron,

    first of all thanks for the compliment including me into ‘BP Folks’. So, I’m not part of the BP team (not yet…), I’m just an advanced user and dev for my own clients.

    There were big changes in the last development versions (both bbPress and BP) and the documentation is not up to date. The devs put most of their time in developing the features – it would be great if some volunteers would come up, advanced users, to complete the documentation (that’s a lot of work, too). Everything you find here is done by the devs and the community (including folks like you) and offered for free. Maybe you can keep this in mind when you are more experienced in a few month to please come back and contribute something to the community as well. Like answering here in the forums, writing documentation and so on 😉

    To answer your question: On the bbPress settings page you can change the slug for the forums. If you didn’t change it, it’s ‘forums’ – e.g. yourdomain.com/forums/
    So go to your menus, set up an own menu, include a Link to Forums, save this menu to your primary navigation.

    all I see on the nav bar is Home, Activities, Members, Sample Page. Nothing about groups or forums.

    Did you activate ‘User Groups’ in the BuddyPress settings?

    Thanks Fee … that worked up to a point. I’m using WP 3.51 immediately after a fresh install and so the default theme Twenty Twelve is being used. So, after your instructions (with a small uncertainly at the end) all I see on the nav bar is Home, Activities, Members, Sample Page. Nothing about groups or forums.

    Your instructions mentioned ‘Activate group forums for BuddyPress’ which I couldn’t see on the page. What I got was

    BuddyPress Forum settings for BuddyPress
    Enable Group Forums Allow BuddyPress Groups to have their own forums
    Group Forums Parent is the parent for all group forums
    Using the Forum Root is not recommended. Changing this does not move existing forums.

    The first box was ticked by default (which I left alone) and as instructed, I set the Group Furums Root to ‘Group Forum’.

    So, why are there no Forums on the home page ?

    Apologies if I’m being stupid here. I think you BP folks have done a great job .. however, I find the available docs not very user-friendly i.e. if I click on ‘documentation’ from the BP home page, I get a list of extremely esoteric items where I would expect to see a few idiot’s guides on installation, configuration etc etc. I reckon that I’m quite knowledgeable about WordPress having created and supported 3 sites, but I’ve found bbPress and BuddyPress very confusing.

    Thanks

    With BP 1.7 and bbPress 2.3 it became really easy. Just install them the usual plugin installation way (automatic through WP or via FTP).
    Best is you first activate BuddyPress, you will see a welcome screen with a direct link to the settings. Change them if you want.
    Then go back to plugins and activate bbPress, you will see a welcome screen again. You will see three new admin menu items (Forums, Topics, Replies). Got to Forums and add a new forum, maybe called “Group Forums”. Got to the bbPress settings under Settings -> Forums. Change them if you want – and scroll down to the very last option: Activate group forums for BuddyPress. Choose you’re Group Forum, save it. – That’s all! Now go ahead and create your first group via BuddyPress in frontend group directory.

    Correction & Apology.

    My initial comments were correct and this plugin as far as i am aware works properly even on the iPad

    Set up:- WP v. 3.5.1 multisite, BP v. 1.7, Bbpress v. 2.3, Other Plugins: a lot; Theme: Child of BP Default.

    the temporary problems on the iPad were actually caused (according to me) by another newly released bp plugin that i was trying out. Once I deactivated that other plugin and cleared the cache completely Buddyshare worked properly.

    wordpress buddypress and bbpress are all the same user accounts for any given site.

    With bbPress standalone plugin now handling all of BP’s group forum requirements this is more a question for bbp support really; however bbpress does provide a standard wysiwyg editor.

    i see that you can the template of the page to bbPress – User Login, but then if you go to the login in page it gives you a

    Sorry Hugo, I’m pretty new to buddypress. Will I untick this Group Forums (Legacy)under components.

    If it’s a new install why are you mentioning legacy group forums, with 1.7 all forum activity is handled by bbpress, if you want group forums then that is enabled under bbPress settings. Older installs would have needed to migrate and then disable the forum component listed under BP settings page.

    This weeks question & answer:

    theme customize

    Question Summary: How to add custom css to all widgets?

    Solution: In our theme, you can target all widgets with article.widget. An example:

    article.widget {
    	background: #fff;
    	border-radius: 6px;
    	margin: 10px;
    	padding: 10px;
    	box-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,0.3) 0 1px 3px;
    }

    Just thought I’d update this to share the changes to TF lately. I’m running the latest versions of BuddyPress (1.7) and bbPress(2.3). Everything is running super smooth. Check out the site, and I hope it can give you some ideas or inspiration for your own communities 🙂

    From the error above it looks like a bbpress error so you may want to post on the bbpress forum to see if they can help as well.

    A tiny bit confused here.

    Using Buddyshare 1.2.1 (in the plugin panel it calls itself “BuddyPress Share It” and the Author is @modemlooper) on a test site

    Set up:- WP v. 3.5.1 multisite, BP v. 1.7, Bbpress v. 2.3, Other Plugins: a lot; Theme: Child of BP Default.

    As far as i can tell, on this set-up, this (superb) Buddyshare plugin is working as expected.

    Is there something i’m missing?

    Looks like I owe an apology. It seems a reinstall has fixed some issues I had, including slow page speed loads and I forgot the widget was part of bbpress and not buddypress and the install must have deleted it.

    The only issue that remains is the register page still results in a redirect loop.

    The big question is: Why not?!

    This is a little silly.

    With groups set up, you could effectively replace old school “forums” with the more dynamic “groups”.

    You can just message from your profile, or to a group. It turns the entire site into an extendable forum. All that’s missing is a better text editor.
    This would simplify things a great deal. Right now, you can start a conversation in the forum; in a group; or just with a message from the profile. These are not all that integrated. Way too easy to get lost, or lose related content. It’s a mess.

    I know with the new updates, bbpress and BuddyPress are friends, and you can (in theory) feed your group forums into the site wide forum. But… why have a site wide forum when you can just message to groups?

    I’ve had to create a page on the site just to explain to people what this Groups vs Forums stuff is about. Think about it from their perspective. What the hell is a “group”. This really smacks of developer centric thinking dominating user centric thinking.

    I’ve found this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-tinymce/
    But I’m getting a fatal error, and so are other people (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-bp-tinymce-fatal-error?replies=3#post-4107216)

    @johnconner Need more information about your installation.
    – WP single or multisite? If multisite, is BP in main site or subsite?
    – Is this a new installation of did you upgrade from BP 1.6.5? If new, did you follow instructions at https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/ ?
    – Did you go through basic troubleshooting like changing to BP Default theme and deactivating all other plugins except BuddyPress and bbPress and checking if issue is resolved?

    Forums are done with bbPress plugin and the plugin to add images in the forums https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gd-bbpress-attachments/ Support for bbPress -> https://bbpress.org/forums/

    WP 2.5.1, BP 1.7, bbpress 2.2.4
    Sitewide and group forums have gone in BP 1.7 but before upgrading to 1.7, at BP installation I unchecked “Discussion forums” option.
    The problem persists if I deactivate BP plugin. I know, you’ll say now it’s not BP’s problem. And you’are right.
    I tried to find a solution on WP and bbpress forums as well, without success.

    Someone suggested to add an exception in .htaccess for admin-ajax.php, but I don’t know how to do this.
    I tried:
    `
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName “wp-admin”
    require valid-user
    AuthUserFile “/home/vssracin/.htpasswds/public_html/vssracing/wp-admin/passwd”
    Files “admin-ajax.php”>
    Satisfy any
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    /Files>
    `

    but it’s not working (with correct “<". If I put these here the entire Files lines disappear).
    Any idea?
    Thank you.
