    sorry, but your question is lost a bit in translation, I do not know what is wrong, so cannot help in fixing it

    It is not necessary under GDPR to prevent people form publishing their personal data if they wish. For instance if x wants to put their personal phone number on a public forum, that is up to x, and the site is under no obligation to remove it or advise x.

    However if you want to create a ticket like system, then I presume you tried my private groups plugin mentioned in the other thread which does just what you want if I understand you correctly.

    ah – thanks – try this

    // Force ping_status on bbPress post types
    add_filter( ‘pings_open’, ‘rew_force_ping_status’ ); 
    function rew_force_ping_status( $open, $post_id = 0 ) { 
    // Get the post type of the post ID
    $post_type = get_post_type( $post_id );
    // Default return value is what is passed in $open
    $retval = $open;
    // Only force for bbPress post types
    	switch ( $post_type ) {
    	case bbp_get_forum_post_type() :
    	case bbp_get_topic_post_type() :
    	case bbp_get_reply_post_type() :
    	$retval = false;
    	break;
    	// Allow override of the override
    	return apply_filters( ‘rew_force_ping_status’, $retval, $open, $post_id, $post_type );
    	}
    }

    create a page and put this shortcode in for each forum you want to display where xx is the foirum number

    [bbp-single-forum id=xx]

    eg

    [bbp-single-forum id=56] 
    [bbp-single-forum id=68] 
    [bbp-single-forum id=27]

    sorry, should have put ‘code’ round the sentence

    so should have read

    ‘you seem to have <strong> and </strong> in your code, that is not in the version I posted’

    but if that is not the issue, can you post the exact error you are getting

    @robin-w

    ok, that is quite ambitious, so well done for getting so far.

    As I think you are doing, you should only change files in the templates and then only by copying them to a bbpress folder in your child theme. The originals can (and should) stay in the bbpress plugin file. bbpress will see your files in the child theme and use them instead.

    to move the topic content – the word ‘test’ in your example

    #bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-content, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-content {
    	margin-left: 0px !important;
    }

    you seem to have and in your code, that is not in the version I posted

    @robin-w

    not sure why that would be – bbp_get_forum_title just does a check and then executes get_the_title

    the full function is

    function bbp_get_forum_title( $forum_id = 0 ) {
    		$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id( $forum_id );
    		$title    = get_the_title( $forum_id );
    
    		return apply_filters( 'bbp_get_forum_title', $title, $forum_id );
    	}

    It seems to work fine on my test site.

    Is there a particular circumstance or is it consistently wrong on your site?

    probably a buddypress question – suggest you repost this there

    I should say that I am not the plugin author, just an experienced user.

    bbpress just uses wordpress custom posts, so in most cases having the forums within the main site would be no problem. Of course I don’t know your site, so cannot recommend, but most sites just have it within. If the main site is down, chances are that most will not access the forums directly, but rather via the main site, so the forums would ‘appear’ to be down as well.

    It is an option to uncheck the box, it is not a recommendation (the box I quoted in settings recommends that you do display the prefix, but I think this is just for clarity in the url).

    unticking the box would achieve https://forums.X.com/ and putting the forums in your main site would achieve https://X.com/forums/

    I cannot replicate that on my test site, and from its positioning I suspect it is theme related rather than bbpress as it seems to be within after an <article> div that bbpress doesn’t use, and I cannot find ‘comments-area’ anywhere in the bbpress plugin.

    If you want to prove that, switch to a default theme and check that it disappears.

    the first ‘forums’ is the sub domain where he has installed it (what you call ‘in its own folder) so that cannot be changed.

    The ‘/forums/’ is what bbpress uses, you can omit that in the sub-domain wp installation

    dashboard>settings>forums>fourm root slug, and untick the ‘Prefix all forum content with the Forum Root slug (Recommended)’

    That might achieve your first objective, but probably what you really want is the forums within your site, unless your site is massively complicated or your forums are huge, there is no reason not to have bbpress within your main site

    no idea what you are saying, so I’ll leave it there. Bbpress is what it is.

    great – glad you are fixed, and thanks for posting the solution

    ok, get the topic ID, and then in your hook to bbp_theme_before_reply_content look up whether the topic has had any replies by using

    $count = get_post_meta ($topic_id, '_bbp_reply_count' , false)

    If $count=0, then there have been no replies, so this is the first.

    thanks for posting this – it is a known error – in essence the bottom filter overrides the top – I think 2.6 will fix this when issued, but it is amazingly rare that someone uses this feature, but appreciate you reporting it

    great – thanks for posting that – really appreciated !
