don’t like the look of the trashed ending of the url, but this is a site specific issue, and not sure what we can do to fix.
start with
dashboard>tools>forums>repair forums and run one at a time.
If that doesn’t fix, or it starts happening again then
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>big fixes
and tick the fix last active time
try adding
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>bug fixes and tick the threaded replies box
let me know if this works
ok, go into
dashboard>replies>edit reply and go into a reply that is not showing, and juts click save.
Then see if it shows
then come back
try
dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets them
come back if that doesn’t work
I did some thinking around this last night.
Basically bbpress looks for an author ID in the posts table.
Now there’s a hook in the topic/reply handlers (topic for topics, reply for replies, so they mirror) after a topic/reply is created.
do_action( ‘bbp_new_reply_post_extras’, $reply_id );
so if each of your characters has a WordPress user ID, then you could just hook to this, and change the post author to the worpress user ID.
so say
add_action ('bbp_new_reply_post_extras' , 'your function') ;
function your_function ($reply_id) {
$id = [either use the $_POST if still available and maybe have the value as the WordPress user ID , or get_post_meta for d20_character in the reply_id and do a look up to translate value to WordPress user ID]
$my_post = array(
'ID' =>$reply_id,
'post_author' => $id,
);
// Update the post into the database
wp_update_post( $my_post );
}
that way each topic/reply has a real author that happens to be your character chosen in the topic/reply form.
that would save a ton of coding in the output, and risk of missing one and exposing the real user.
great – do come back of you need odd bits of help, and yes please a solution if you get there is always great to have
it may be that your mail client is chopping emails with multiple recipients
try this
AsynCRONous bbPress Subscriptions
you would start by looking at the topic and reply forms in the templates
\bbpress\templates\default\bbpress\form-topic.php
which you can amend and copy to your child theme putting them in a bbpress folder
these link to the new topic or reply handlers in
\bbpress\includes\topics\functions.php line 96
and an equivalent in
\bbpress\includes\replies\functions.php
these are called by filters eg
add_action( ‘bbp_post_request’, ‘bbp_new_topic_handler’, 10 );
so you could rewrite the new topic handler and call it from a new version of the above action, this could catch the $_POST from your dropdown, and add say an extra meta field, and allocating all topics/replies to a single user_id to prevent needing individual users.
You can then amend the other templates or use filters to show the drop-down from the meta in the content field.
UK, so EU at the moment !!

no, that only fires on new topic/reply creation
nothing exists as far as I know. Like everything it could be coded, but beyond free help.
ok, so have you run the repair forums, and did that correct?
ok that’s the best I can do.
you then need to change hidden forums to public forums but use groups to prevent acess, and set forum visibility, then they will see that they exist, but not be able to access.
so have you tried the above?
you’ll need to look at the help section to see how to set it up
not what I planned, and I know why, but of it works for you then great !!
ok, this may or may nogt work
can you download this file
RSS Test
and then open it and paste the contents into code snippets ion the php/code section
then let me know if it does anything (at all!!)
ok, let me play with some code and come back
Lars,
I cannot remember if you are technical or not – let me know, if you are I can point you to a solution, but if not, then it may take me a while to work it all out.
great – glad you ate fixed !
