Thank you. I think the problem I am going to have though is that for new topics, the right words are still Submit / Submitting. It is only editing topics that need the words replaced.
Wouldn’t the above code replace in code contexts, based on your comment preceding the code?
then you need to amend form-topic and form-reply
to amend
<button type="submit" tabindex="<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>" id="bbp_topic_submit" name="bbp_topic_submit" class="button submit"><?php _e( 'Submit', 'bbpress' ); ?></button>
to something like (untested)
<?php if ( bbp_allow_revisions() && bbp_is_topic_edit() ) : ?>
<button type="submit" tabindex="<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>" id="bbp_topic_submit" name="bbp_topic_submit" class="button submit"><?php _e( 'Submit', 'bbpress' ); ?></button>
<?php endif ; ?>
<?php else : ?>
<button type="submit" tabindex="<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>" id="bbp_topic_submit" name="bbp_topic_submit" class="button submit"><?php _e( 'Update', 'bbpress' ); ?></button>
<?php endelse : ?>
‘updating..’ beyond my current time avaailability
Thanks for this. I have now successfully created a child theme (I think) and it is live on my site.
I am trying to find where your previous instructions are. If I recall, you said I should replicate the path to the stated files under the child theme folder? And put them there and they will be picked up?
If so, I might give it ago. But not until I get my head around “Submitting” which I see is in the functions file.
One step at a time.
You can copy all the templates across, but you only need to copy those that you want to change, and it is better just to do this, as then you know which you have altered.
so if you wanted to amend loop-single-forum you would do the following
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this
Understood.
This is the code in the functions php that needs updating:
function bsp_load_spinner_topic () {
global $bsp_style_settings_form ;
//preload spinner so it is ready - css hides this
echo '<div id="bsp-spinner-load"></div>' ;
//add button - hidden by css
echo '<button type="submit" id="bsp_topic_submit" name="bbp_topic_submit" class="button submit">' ;
//leave as is if field is blanked (user may just want spinner)
$value = (!empty($bsp_style_settings_form['SubmittingSubmitting']) ? $bsp_style_settings_form['SubmittingSubmitting'] : '') ;
echo $value ;
//then add spinner if activated
if (!empty( $bsp_style_settings_form['SubmittingSpinner'])) echo '<span class="bsp-spinner"></span>' ;
//then finish button
echo '</button>' ;
}
function bsp_load_spinner_reply () {
global $bsp_style_settings_form ;
//preload spinner so it is ready - css hides this
echo '<div id="bsp-spinner-load"></div>' ;
//add button - hidden by css
echo '<button type="submit" id="bsp_reply_submit" name="bbp_reply_submit" class="button submit">' ;
//leave as is if field is blanked (user may just want spinner)
$value = (!empty($bsp_style_settings_form['SubmittingSubmitting']) ? $bsp_style_settings_form['SubmittingSubmitting'] : '') ;
echo $value ;
//then add spinner if activated
if (!empty ( $bsp_style_settings_form['SubmittingSpinner'])) echo '<span class="bsp-spinner"></span>' ;
//then finish button
echo '</button>' ;
}
Specifically:
//leave as is if field is blanked (user may just want spinner)
$value = (!empty($bsp_style_settings_form['SubmittingSubmitting']) ? $bsp_style_settings_form['SubmittingSubmitting'] : '') ;
echo $value ;
So it looks to see if the user has entered a value in the settings for “Submitting” and if it is not empty echos it, else it echos nothing. Do functions like bbp_allow_revisions() work in this context?
