@clivesmith

If you fine with code, then this is how I would go about it

1. create a split in topic & replies, so you have a place to put the ‘featured reply’
Use this piece of code in your functions file

bbp_show_lead_topic

2. then you’ll need a flag for the featured reply.

This code does an ‘advert’ flag for a topic, but has much of the code you’d need to do a flag for a reply to show it is featured – I’ll leave you to work out which bits you’ll need, but the key is the hook to

add_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_form_submit_wrapper', 'at_checkbox' );

change this to

add_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_form_submit_wrapper', 'at_checkbox' );

amend the references from topic to reply

and add some if(bbp_keymaster() ) to make it only show for you, and you will be most of the way there

// show the "Mark if it is an advert" checkbox on topic form
	add_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_form_submit_wrapper', 'at_checkbox' );
		
function at_checkbox() {
    // Text for the topic form
	global $topic_advert_text ;
	?>
		<p>

			<input name="at_advert" id="at_advert" type="checkbox"<?php checked( '1', at_is_advert( bbp_get_topic_id() ) ); ?> value="1" tabindex="<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>" />

			<?php if ( bbp_is_topic_edit() && ( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) != bbp_get_current_user_id() ) ) : ?>

				<label for="at_advert"><?php echo '<span class="dashicons dashicons-awards"></span>'.$topic_advert_text.'</label>' ;?>

			<?php else : ?>

				<label for="at_advert"><?php echo '<span class="dashicons dashicons-awards"></span>'.$topic_advert_text.'</label>' ;?>

			<?php endif; ?>

		</p>
<?php
}
	
//check if topic is advert
function at_is_advert( $topic_id = 0 ) {
	
	$retval 	= false;

	if ( ! empty( $topic_id ) ) {
		$retval = get_post_meta( $topic_id, 'at_topic_is_advert', true );
	}
	return (bool) apply_filters( 'at_is_advert', (bool) $retval, $topic_id );
}

// save the advert state
		add_action( 'bbp_new_topic',  'at_update_topic' );
		add_action( 'bbp_edit_topic',  'at_update_topic' );

//update topic 
function at_update_topic( $topic_id = 0 ) {

		if( isset( $_POST['at_advert'] ) )
			update_post_meta( $topic_id, 'at_topic_is_advert', '1' );
		else
			delete_post_meta( $topic_id, 'at_topic_is_advert' );

	}

3. amend content-single-topic-lead.php in your child theme’s bbpress directory.

by

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

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-single-topic-lead.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/content-single-topic-lead.phpbbPress will now use this template instead of the original and you can amend this

This then you can use to add some code

if (at_is_advert( $reply_id )) then….. display this reply

and you should be there

so

the reply form will show a checkbox to make a reply featured available only to say keymaster, and as keymaster you can edit a topic to make it a featured
the content_single_topic_lead will check if a reply is featured and then show it if it is

I wish I had the time to code this all for you, but please if you do work oyt some code, post back here for other to benefit

great – glad you are fixed, and thanks for posting what was wrong – this can help others

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Buttons

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

bbpress does not do custom topic statuses, so they are coming from that support plugin, best post there as it is that plugin that needs to work with 2.6, but most plugin authors do not code for pre-release software as it changes.

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

ok, I cannot say why it is not working, it works in my test site

I presume this code is going into you child theme’s function’s file – sorry but I do not know how technical you are, so I ask the obvious questions !

you could try >9 and see if that works !

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

no sorry this is a 2.6 feature when 2.6 is released

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

that code will close the topic on 100 replies, so unless you tested with creating the 100th reply, then it would not work. Did you do this ?

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

ok, I would strongly suspect you membership wall, presumably a plugin – not a lot we can do if it is.

This generic help should let you define where the issue is

It could be a theme or plugin issue issue, so you’ll need to test to find out which

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

Deactivate all but 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 Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

that would take a lot of code, beyond free help

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

can you say specifically what you want – ie where you want to determine or show this?

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

are you totally unable to edit your forum, or are you just unable to add videos?

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

add this to your functions file, it closes the topic when the 100th reply is posted

add_action( 'bbp_new_reply_post_extras', 'rew_close_topic' );

function rew_close_topic ($reply_id) {
//  find out the topic_id
$topic_id = bbp_get_reply_topic_id ($reply_id) ;
$count = bbp_get_topic_reply_count ($topic_id) ;
if ($count == 100) bbp_close_topic( $topic_id );
}

No idea from your post of what code you are trying.

bbp_has_replies is the function you need for the loop

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

Notifications is a buddypress thing – I think you need to report it to their support

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

the default is false, so it would do nothing – you should be using

$show_lead[] = 'true';

then it will use the template it talks about and you can style it

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

the function that bbpress uses is in

includes/common/functions.php

line 1055 starts the function, and lines 1150 to 1153 are the offending ones which stop it being sent to the author

I’d suggest you unhook that function and then hook your own

so in your child theme functions file maybe have

remove_action( 'bbp_new_reply',    'bbp_notify_topic_subscribers',           11, 5 );
add_action ( 'bbp_new_reply' , 'rew_notify_topic_subscribers', 11,5 ) ;

and then copy the whole bbp_notify_topic_subscribers function to your functions file, rename it to ‘rew_notify_topic_subscribers’ and edit out the lines which stop it being sent to the author

do come back if anything isn’t clear, I’m assuming a level of knowledge you may not have, and quite happy to help further

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

I tried plugins and themes, but i’m sure i can erase it from a file inside the bbpress folder. What file can it be?

it is not in nay file that I know, it looks like part of an error

you may be able to hide it with css, I can’t say without a live link

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

yes, that is the default position, I’ll try and work out some code in the next few days.

If I have not come back in 3 days time, post again to remind me !

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 7 months ago]

in bbpress plugin in my site the moderator roles the forum is not showing in dashboard,

It could be a theme or plugin issue issue, so you’ll need to test to find out which
