a page not a file

so in

dashboard>pages do you have a page called forums ?

[Robin W]

so what shortcodes has it got ?

[Robin W]

is this an actual WordPress page with shortcodes in it?

[Robin W]

bbp style pack

has unread posts – maybe more than you want, but closest I can suggest

[Robin W]

great thanks – I’ve changed it and it will go on then next release

thanks again 🙂

[Robin W]

Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

Code Snippets

add_filter(  'ngettext',  'rew_bbpress_translate' , 20 , 5 );

function rew_bbpress_translate( $translation, $single, $plural, $number, $domain ) {
	if ($domain == 'bbpress') {
    if ($translation == 'Viewing %1$s topic') $translation = 'Viewing %1$s messages' ;
	if ($translation == 'Viewing %1$s topics') $translation = 'Viewing %1$s messages' ;
	if ($translation == 'Viewing topic %2$s (of %4$s total)') $translation = 'Viewing message %2$s (of %4$s total)' ;
	if ($translation == 'Viewing %1$s topics - %2$s through %3$s (of %4$s total)') $translation = 'Viewing %1$s messages - %2$s through %3$s (of %4$s total)' ;
	}
return apply_filters ('rew_bbpress_translate', $translation, $single, $plural, $number, $domain ) ;
}

what would you like it to say ?

[Robin W]

great – glad you are fixed

[Robin W]

create a homepage called anything you like.

then put this shortcode in it

[bbp-forum-index]

[Robin W]

@sirlouen – thanks, I’ve incorporated all those changes in 4.4.2

Let me know if I missed anything

and thanks so much for helping me improve my plugin – as a one man developer/tester it’s hard to spot where code can be improved !

[Robin W]

you need to post in buddypress support

https://buddypress.org/support/

[Robin W]

sorry I’m really busy at the moment – it would really help me if you could paste revised code 🙂

[Robin W]

just released 4.4.1 which has those changes in

[Robin W]

fancy giving me the corrected lines? 🙂

[Robin W]

none in bbpress, but I added the capability in style pack

bbp style pack

once activated you’ll see it in the widgets as

(style pack) Single topic info

[Robin W]

ok, could be written – but beyond free help I’m afraid

[Robin W]

ok, something will be stopping that

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, 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

[Robin W]

you can create tiered forums quite easily.

go to

dashboard>forums>edit forum and select the forum you wish, then on ten right hand side, select what parent forum you want it to belong to.

[Robin W]

dashboard>settings>discussion and change the number of links

[Robin W]

dashboard>settings>discussion

[Robin W]

ask them for a hook on membership ceasing, they’ll know what a hook is.

[Robin W]

or use

Code Snippets

[Robin W]

which membership are you using?

[Robin W]

the problem is that there are dozens and dozens of membership plugins, each with its own bespoke code that it uses when members leave. Some will have a hook that a coder can link to, but it is specific to that plugin, some have no hook, so it can only be a manual process, or one linked to a daily routine.

Without knowing which membership plugin and knowing if it has a hook, it is impossible to answer this question.

in all cases it will be ‘custom code’ whether written by you or someone else 🙂

@mrmillercoach – do you need help for you to code it, or someone to code it for you ?
