[Babblebey]

I’m looking at both

[Babblebey]

My Theme’s functions.php file

[Babblebey]

Yes I still see it

[Babblebey]

Nothing changed, Robin

[Babblebey]

I want to be able to edit each of the Link – Let’s say for example I want to Change ‘Reply’ to ‘Respond’ and also add a fontawesome icon with the html i element.

[Babblebey]

Not very much, I feel very lazy to read this page – https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum-part-5/

Aww

[Babblebey]

Yes, Its the same one that displays “reply” for Subscribers/Participants

[Babblebey]

I have been doing that from the start of the whole process of the project, I have all the bbpress templates copied over to my theme directory, I am doing an edit on exactly all the template.

But the bbp_topic_post_date('d M, Y') doesn’t work is the thing.

[Babblebey]

The Plugin is kind of disturbing my function in the way I have set them up already… And it only works on the Freshness Display, it doesn’t work on the topics and reply post dates.

I want one that can work similarly like the WordPress the_date('d M, Y') to look like bbp_topic_post_date('d M, Y') to dictate the exact date format I want for that function to return. I do not really want plugins, I’m trying to build with little to no plugins at all.

Counting Topic Favorites:

<?php
$topic = bbp_get_topic_id();
$users = get_users() ;
$countfav = 0;
foreach ($users as $user) {
    $topicfav_listarray = get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_subscriptions', true) ;
    $topicfav_list = explode (',' , $topicfav_listarray) ;
    if (in_array ($topic , $topicfav_list))  $countfav++ ;
}
echo $countfav;
?>;

Counting Topic Subscriptions:

<?php
$topic = bbp_get_topic_id();
$users = get_users() ;
$countsub = 0;
foreach ($users as $user) {
    $topicsub_listarray = get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_subscriptions', true) ;
    $topicsub_list = explode (',' , $topicsub_listarray) ;
    if (in_array ($topic , $topicsub_list))  $countsub++ ;
}
echo $countsub;
?>;

Now those are the things that worked.

Thank you, Robin! I hope this helps someone in the future

[Babblebey]

<?php
$topic = bbp_get_topic_id();
$users = get_users() ;
$countsub = 0;
foreach ($users as $user) {
    $topicsub_list = array(get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_subscriptions', false)) ;
    if (in_array ($topic , $topicsub_list))  $countsub++ ;
}
echo $countsub;
?>

Now it’s understandable that this also didn’t work on the topic I tested it with, because the user has subscribed to multiple topics.

Oh wow!

[Babblebey]

<?php
$topic = bbp_get_topic_id();
$users = get_users() ;
$countfav = 0;
foreach ($users as $user) {
    $topicfav_listarray = get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_subscriptions', true) ;
    $topicfav_list = explode (',' , $topicfav_listarray) ;
    if (in_array ($topic , $topicfav_list))  $countsub++ ;
}
echo $countfav;
?>

This worked now Robin! Thank you!

[Babblebey]

Now I guess if Each User has already one topic in his wp__bbp_favorites the topic stays favorited and counted but No counts is allowed for another topic again.

So the if (in_array ($topic , $topic_list)) $count++ is being a Jealous line i.e: It Only counts a user’s favorite if the user favorites only the currents topics else it doesn’t. because there exists more than one topic inside the $topic_list = array(get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_favorites', false)) ;

What do I do?

[Babblebey]

My Code was to test it for how many User has favourited a particular topic (Like, check how many likes a post has)…

But I guess like you said, If I understand you very well, I am testing in a scenario where User has only one topic listed in the wp__bbp_favorites meta area…

I think that fact has returned to haunt me now Robin… The picture above shows that the Currently logged in User (Who is a keymaster) has favorited the current topic but, his Favorite doesn’t count, the displayed 1 is for that of the second user who also favorites the same topic and happens to be the only topic he has favorited.

Look at the shot below then:

Now I have added more topics to the user’s wp__bbp_favorites by favouriting more topics but Its not displaying the favourites in those topics.

Another scenario on a different topic here:

Not displaying the number of favorite for the topic.

I added a new user and it was able to successfully favourite and increase the count on one of those topics that didn’t get from the previous two users.

So I think the favorite count only work if a certain user has only one topic inside their wp__bbp_favorites

Here’s the favourite count code again as I have used:

$topic = bbp_get_topic_id();
$users = get_users() ;
$count = 0;
foreach ($users as $user) {
    $topic_list = array(get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_favorites', false)) ;
    if (in_array ($topic , $topic_list))  $count++ ;
}
echo $count;

What do you suggest I do now Robin? Should I try explode explosion???

[Babblebey]

That was a hit, Robin!

<?php
$topic = bbp_get_topic_id();
$users = get_users() ;
$countsub = 0;
foreach ($users as $user) {
    $topicsub_listarray = get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_subscriptions', true) ;
    $topicsub_list = explode (',' , $topicsub_listarray) ;
    if (in_array ($topic , $topicsub_list))  $countsub++ ;
}
echo $countsub;
?>

That worked it….. Thank you.

[Babblebey]

Ok, so I’ve got this result, Robin!

Topic : 65
user_id: 1
array (size=1)
  0 => string '149,65' (length=6)

Topic : 65
user_id: 2
array (size=1)
  0 => string '145,146,65' (length=10)

0

I believe that should mean that User 1 and User 2 and currently subscribed to the topic But I still get a 0. The Replica of the Favorite should actually work but I don’t know..

[Babblebey]

<?php
$topic = bbp_get_topic_id();
$users = get_users() ;
$countsub = 0;
foreach ($users as $user) {
    $topicsub_list = array(get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_subscriptions', false)) ;
    if (in_array ($topic , $topicsub_list))  $countsub++ ;
}
echo $countsub;
?>

It didn’t work that way, Robin!

I got a 0 in the result, even as i was sure there’s a subscription

[Babblebey]

$topic = bbp_get_topic_id();
$users = get_users() ;
$count = 0;
foreach ($users as $user) {
    $topic_list = array(get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_favorites', false)) ;
    if (in_array ($topic , $topic_list))  $count++ ;
}
echo $count;

And this one worked Robin! Thank you!

[Babblebey]

I guess I will be patient for you to test this Robin

$topic = bbp_get_topic_id();
$users = get_users() ;
$count = 0;
foreach ($users as $user) {
    $topic_list = get_usermeta ($user->id, 'wp__bbp_favorites', false) ;
    if (in_array ($topic , $topic_list))  $count++ ;
}
echo $count;

I am getting the error

Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, string given in C:\wamp\www\omna\wp-content\themes\omna2\bbpress\content-single-topic-lead.php on line 134

[Babblebey]

Thank you once again, Robin

<?php
if ( babblebey_has_topics() ):
    while ( bbp_topics() ) : bbp_the_topic();
        get_template_part( 'template-parts/topic', 'card' );
    endwhile;
endif;
?>

I used it like that

[Babblebey]

So I will be calling babblebey_has_topics() ?????? Please see as stated below too

<!--Sidebar Start-->
            <div class="col-md-4">
                      <div class="sidebar-topics row sticky-top">
                          <div class="col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-12 ml-2 mb-2 p-1">

                          </div>
                          <div class="col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-12">
                        <?php
                            if ( babblebey_has_topics() ):
                                while ( babblebey_topics() ) : babblebey_the_topic();
                                    get_template_part( 'template-parts/topic', 'card' );
                                endwhile;
                            endif;
                          ?>
                        </div>
                  </div>
            </div>
<!--Sidebar Ends-->

[Babblebey]

Thank you Robin, You are the best!

[Babblebey]

The Post Per Page as its been set up from the “Forum Setting”:

Works as it should, i.e dictate the number of topics to display per Single Forum Page:

But the same setting is inturn affecting my custom loop I have placed on my HomePage Sticky Sidebar to display latest topics:

I want something similar to the ` $args = array(‘posts_per_page’ => 10 //my custom number) as its being used in the normal WP Post Loop like this below:

<?php $args = array(
‘posts_per_page’ => 10 // Like this one here
);
$posts = new WP_Query($args);
if ($posts->have_posts()):
while($posts->have_posts()): $posts->the_post();
get_template_part( ‘template-parts/content’, get_post_format() );
endwhile;
endif;
wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
`

[Babblebey]

Thank you very much.

If only the codex https://codex.bbpress.org/developer/ was completed.

Please, I might need the same for if A TOPIC is Favourited and if a TOPIC is Subscribed to

[Babblebey]

Well just incase other people finds this thread.. My Template Part had bugs too.. Here is the one that worked:

<?php

/**
 * Single Thread
 *
 * @package bbPress
 * @subpackage Theme
 */

  // $threadURL = bbp_topic_permalink(); // Deprecated ////
  // $threadTitle = bbp_topic_title(); // Deprecated ////
  // $threadTIme = bbp_topic_post_date(); // Deprecated ////
  ///////////////// Thread Author Avatar URL ////////////////////////
  $user_id = bbp_get_user_id( $user_id );
  $authorAvatarURL = get_avatar_url( $user_id, 300 );
  ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  // $threadVoiceCount = bbp_topic_voice_count(); // Deprecated ////

?>

<div class="swiper-slide-item">
    <div class="icon-author" style="background-image: url('<?php echo $authorAvatarURL; ?>'); background-image: -webkit-image-set(url('<?php echo $authorAvatarURL; ?>') 1x, url('<?php echo $authorAvatarURL; ?>') 2x);"></div>
    <a href="<?php bbp_topic_permalink(); ?>"><?php bbp_topic_title(); ?></a></h2>
    <time class="data" datetime="<?php bbp_topic_post_date(); ?>"><?php bbp_topic_post_date(); ?></time>
    <span class="views"><i class="fa fa-comment-alt"></i><?php bbp_topic_reply_count(); ?></span>
</div>

The bbPress Functions does not want to be assigned to variable as Unlike the GET_ they do not return values, they echo.

Thanks.
