bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Profile
if you subscribe to a topic, then you receive notifications of replies
if you subscribe to a forum, you get notification of new topics
if unsubscribing isn’t working, then it might be something extra that is added, it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.
Plugins
If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Then come back
This function should do that – change “mysite.com/login” to where you want it to go
function rew_change_text( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
if ( $text == 'You do not have permission to view this forum.' ) {
$translated_text = 'This forum is visible only to this group members, please click <a href="mysite.com/login">here</a> and sign up for this group';
}
return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'rew_change_text', 20, 3 );
Put this in your child theme’s function file –
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
or use
Code Snippets
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/roadmap
the actual timing is always much later, but you can look at the tickets to see what is in the releases
so can you upload plugins?
Ok, I don’t know what .com allows for different plans – can you upload anything, or only install some plugins, or any worpress plugin?
The last version (which is stable) is hosted here
bbpress moderation tools
you don’t say if this is a new problem, or new forum, or has just started happening? did it used to work?
The link is to the last version, which still works fine.
bbpress uses the WordPress moderation
dashboard>settings>discussion
but you also might like to look at
bbpress moderation tools
dashboard>settings>forums>forum root slug and untick ‘Prefix all forum content with the Forum Root slug (Recommended)’
so go to
dashboard>settings>forums>all forums>edit forum and in the content section – so you can put the link in there
then the style pack just enables that
or use
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forum Display item 6
this will add any text you put in
dashboard>settings>forums>all forums>edit forum and in then content section – so you can put the link in there
if you create a wordpress page with the same slug as your forum – typically ‘forums’, and put the shortcode
[bbp-forum-index]
this should then look like the existing forum.
If so, then before the shortcode add a block in which you can put text or a link or whatever you want
great – glad you are fixed
2. things totry
1. dashboard>settings>permalinks>and just click save- this resets the links and can sometimes fix issues
2. dashboard>tools>forums>repair forums and run as appropriate
@deepblue5 – thanks – I’ll take a look – busy working on a quote feature at the moment 🙂 :-), but will try and take a look when that annoys me enough to need a break
so do these theme need elementor to work?, don’t wok whether elementor used or not or what is the core issue? – just saving my time in having to do lots of work to get to a problem definition 🙂
@deepblue5 can you give me an example of a coulpe of themes from the above which don’t work – free ones so I can take a look without paying money 🙂
and I’ll see if I can find any commonality
that would tend to indicate an issue with bbpress and elementor working together, which I have already seen with their Hello theme.
bbpress works to WordPress standards, many theme builders exist because they see WordPress as a restriction and feel they can offer improvements, so stretch and alter what WordPress does, which can then can make plugins have issues.
Because it is open source, and there are no definitive rules, it is wrong to say that it is a bbpress problem, or indeed an elementor problem or a divi problem, each makes their own code to work, but you cannot guarantee interoperability of everything with everything.
Sorry – you seem to want to abuse me as being stupid. I just help out here for free so phrases such as
I do not see the connection with the question ever.
and
Certainly I took a while to understand what you wanted to explain but I did it.
are not welcome.
I hope you are able to sort your issue, which may be site related or that you are doing something I am not.
Maybe try and do here what you are doing on your test site – this site is bbpress.
