Some BuddyPress features break when I use BuddyPress Nuovo templates?
The problem is caused by the Italic BBCode due to the conflict with the Underscore templates system BuddyPress uses.
There are two ways to solve this:
- You can disable Italic BBCode (bbPress Toolbox -> BBCodes, find the
Italicand disable it). - You can limit BBCodes to the bbPress content only (bbPress Toolbox -> Features -> BBCodes -> Main BBCodes Settings ->
bbPress Only). If you do this, BBCodes will work only with bbPress topics, replies, and forums.
The second option is enabled by default, but check it out if maybe it was disabled at some point before.

Why plugin’s JavaScript files are not loaded?
All Dev4Press plugins and addons require jQuery. However, they will work only if the jQuery is loaded with WordPress’s proper Enqueue method. If you are replacing jQuery that comes with WordPress with some other version loaded from another location, my plugins will not function properly, and that goes the same for most of the other WordPress plugins that depend on the proper way for loading jQuery.
How can I confirm that topic new/unread tracking is working?
Before you go on, make sure you have configured the plugin properly. Check out this article for more information.
To confirm that topic tracking for users is working (new topics, unread topics, and new replies), you need two user accounts: one to create a new topic, and the second account to visit the forum with the new topic to get to see the mark for ‘new‘.
If it is not working, check if the database tables are created during the update. Table name is ‘wp_gdbbx_tracker‘. You can run Tools -> Recheck and Update to make sure all is OK.
Can I limit users to own files in Media Library via TinyMCE Add Media button?
By design, if a user opens Media Library from TinyMCE Add Media button, that user will only see their own files when the library is displayed.
Can you nest BBCodes?
Yes. You can nest BBCodes as long as they are different types. You can have UL BBCode and inside it, you can have LI BBCodes.
And No. You can’t nest the same type of BBCodes. You can’t have UL inside another UL. Ordered or unordered list in HTML is allowed, and you can have UL, inside it several LI tags, and in those LI tags, you can have another UL. This will not work in WordPress, and BBCodes written like that will also fail to render properly. This will not change until WordPress fixes the issue.
Why BBCodes are not working?
There are few reasons for BBCodes not working:
- You have disabled BBCodes in the plugin.
- You have disabled some of the BBCodes in the plugin.
- You are using some 3rd party plugin that is causing problems.
The plugin that is often causing problems with BBCodes is ‘bbPress Advanced Statistics’, and this plugin will disable all Shortcodes/BBCodes by default. Either configure it properly to allow shortcodes, or remove it.
