    Hi,

    I am using WordPress 4.1.1 and a Premium Press Theme.
    I have bbPress current version installed and I have just installed your plugin (Friends)
    I have created a few forums and topics in forums so far.

    I am puzzled as to where to find bbPress user or member profiles for bbPress. Are you able to guide me, although I may have misunderstood your explanation of how your plugin works. I am not using Buddy press
    I have a membership based website, where members automatically become forum participants when they log into after going through checkout after purchasing their membership package.

    Hi member011,

    This depends on how you have your permalinks set up.

    If they are using the default structure then you can find users using:
    https://yourwebsite.com/?bbp_user=USER_ID
    Just replace https://yourwebsite.com with the actual name of your WordPress site and USER_ID with the id of the specific user you are looking for.

    If they are using the post name structure or a custom structure then you can find users using:
    https://yourwebsite.com/forums/user/USER_NAME/
    Just replace https://yourwebsite.com with the actual name of your WordPress site and USER_NAME with the username of the specific user you are looking for.

    Let me know if that cleared things up,
    Graeme

    I’m marking this topic as resolved seeing as it isn’t really a question about my plugin as it is a question about bbPress.

    Thank you for your fast response!

    I totally understand, however it would be much kinder to word your response like this;
    ___________________________________________________________________
    Dear member011, I can’t answer that one, please would you mind asking that question in a different thread because it is really a question relating to bbPress and not my specific plugin.
    ___________________________________________________________________

    Try paying kindness forward on occasions instead of being as you are, you’ll feel much better for it, and you’ll have much more time for yourself, keep in mind kindness will always come back to you!

    In other words, treat others how you would like to be treated yourself.
    Have a great week.

    :))

    Hi member011,

    Thanks for the constructive criticism. The reason I worded my previous statement in that manner is because I actually did answer your question in my first comment. As a plugin developer, it looks bad for me to leave issues marked as unresolved because people that view the plugin will think that I am no longer supporting the plugin. I left my comment for a month to see if you would respond to let me know if I solved your problem before I decided to mark this issue as resolved. I thought it would be best if I left a second comment explaining why I marked the topic as resolved so that you and other people who run into this problem will understand why I marked it as resolved. I agree that it may have not been worded in the most polite manner but in my defence, I answered your question so I didn’t feel the need to tell you to go looking for the answer in a different thread when I already answered it in the same place you originally asked the question. Thank you for taking the time to write this though because it will definitely make me think about how to respond to users of my plugin in the future. I think the problem with reading text is it’s easy to take things the wrong way and my intentions with that last comment were to explain my actions, not to be mean.

    Thanks again,
    Graeme
