This whilst old still works well

bbPress – Moderation Tools

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

ok, the line

echo esc_html__( 'You must be logged in to create new topics.', 'bbpress' ) . ' <a href="' . esc_url( thim_get_login_page_url() ) . '">' . esc_html__( 'Login here', 'bbpress' ) . '</a>';

is doing the Login Here

This line chooses the location from a setting in your theme thim_get_login_page_url()

so I suspect it is as simple as changing that setting to the page you want it to say, so look at your theme settings

If that doesn’t work, come back

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

can you have a look at your parent theme to see if it has a folder ‘bbpress’ with form-topic.php

in it

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

ok, I’ll need a link to the live example to try and help further

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

from that list, looks like you are running wp-rocket, so you’ll need to clear all caches to get the change to take effect

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

ok, delete ALL of the contents of form-user-login.php and instead put

<a href="https://mydomain.com/login/">Login here</a>

and that’s what will show 🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

ok, can you you confirm that you know how to FTP a file to your PC and back again ?

That will save a lot of explaining !!

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

thanks for posting 🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

I took a look at this, but cannot see what is causing the issue

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.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

login here came with 2.6.x

bbpress has a template in

\templates\default\bbpress\form-user-login.php

you can change this to have a click link to any url you wish

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-user-login.php

transfer this to your pc and edit

and save

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

Then amend this file to take out the current form and put in a link

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/form-user-login.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 5 months ago]

I took a look, it is theme related, but I cannot offer a fix.

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

As a test can you try not having the underscore eg customforum as a single word and see if that makes a difference.

Also are you running buddypress as well ? (question not suggesting you should or shouldn’t !)

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

also have

bbResolutions

still works as far as I know

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

ok, I can not help unless I can see an example – iIneed to look at what is downloaded to my PC’s browser

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

This is theme related, but if you can give me a link to a live example, I might be able to give you some code

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

line 309 of includes/replies/functions calls a function calledbbp_check_for_duplicate within the bbp_new_reply_handler function

That function checks for duplicates and is in includes/common/functions line 663

within that function line 676 for a check

if ( user_can( (int) $r['post_author'], 'throttle' ) ) {
		return true;
	}

so allowing participants to throttle allows duplicates

It is a bit of a fudge, but should work !!

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

the easiest way to do this is to allow participant to ‘throttle’ – this then lets them bypass this check

so the code (untested) should be :

add_filter( 'bbp_get_caps_for_role', 'rew_throttle_bypass', 10, 2);

function rew_throttle_bypass ($caps, $role) {
	if ($role == bbp_get_participant_role() ) {
		$caps['throttle'] = true ;
	}
return $caps ;
}

ut 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

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

there’s no problem with using priorities, especially as you know what it is affecting, just keep in mind that if you add a further bbpress content realted plugin and it doesn’t do what you want it might be related to this

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

try

dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets the links and may help

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

Make Forum Topics a Conversation with the bbPress Quotes Plugin

or

GD bbPress Tools

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

bbpress is very large, and finding the right bit of code not easy !!

have you heard of notepadd++ ?

Google it and install it.

Then download bbpress 2.6 to your PC and unzip it.

Then when you are looking in your browser at bbpress, you’ll usually find a class or ID wrapped around the code you want to change.

In Notepad++ do ‘search>find in files’ and search the class ot ID name in the bbpress directory you created.

That will get you to lots of bits of code which are usually around what you are trying to find

I do this a lot !!

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

on 2. – no problem 🙂 🙂 🙂 I recently spent several hours trying to fix an issue and when I posted all I got back was ‘already fixed elsewhere’ as the response, so this is a current hot button for me – apologies if I sounded irritable 🙂

on your filter – quite a few bbpress additional plugins authors use ‘bbp’ as a prefix to indicate the the class/code is bbpress related. bbpress itself does not have a class of bbp-attachments so suspect this is attachments plugin related.

I would try Milan as a first port of call, he is usually helpful, but do come back if he can’t help.

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

on 2. ok, I see this as just a question, with no response

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/attachment-with-empty-text-message-fails/

do you see it differently?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

ok, 2 things I would say

1. since this relates to bbpress attachments plugin specifically, it would be better to ask there – Milan should be able to help
2. On looking at the attachments support forum I notice that you also asked about empty replies in that forum as well as this forum where I gave you a fix – it is very frustrating for plugin authors and helpers when they spend time on an issue only to find that the original poster has already fixed it, and if you post in multiple places and get a fix from one, it is good to update the other places and maybe even post the solution there as well to help others. It would be polite to do this 🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 6 months ago]

ok, so in the example above, what does $value2 equal

$value2 = get_post_meta( $topic_id, 'bbp_extra_field2', true);

and what is the full url that you want?
