ok, that would require some custom programming to create

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

users can create new topics in individual forums, but not in the forum index

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

The message in the .po is

‘This user…’

but in your example it is

‘you are…’

The code should be translated

but you can just put this in your functions file

//This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
	if ( $translated_text == 'You are not currently subscribed to any forums' ) {
	$translated_text = 'new text';
	}
	return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );

and change ‘new text’ to whatever it should say

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

sorry I don’t have time to install your theme to my test site.

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

just put

[bbp-forum-index]

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

Not sure you can, and since users are allocated wordpress ID’s during import, which then link to the topics and replies, then a 2 stage import would not know which author to apply to which topic.

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

great – glad you’re fixed

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

This code will limit the topic title to 80 or whatever number you set $length to

Put it in your child theme functions.php file

add_filter ('bbp_new_topic_pre_title' , 'rew_limit_topic_length' ) ;
add_filter ('bbp_edit_topic_pre_title' , 'rew_limit_topic_length' ) ;

function rew_limit_topic_length  ($topic_title) {
	$length = 80 ;
	if (strlen($topic_title) > $length) {
		$topic_title = substr($topic_title, 0, $length);
	}
return $topic_title ;
}

so they seem to be saying that their plugin won’t let you change it.

not sure I can help further without access, and that’s beyond free help

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

unfortunately it isn’t enough. Normally the title is just Forum, so without being able to examine a browser to see where this is coming from, I ma not able to help.

It may be your theme is doing this.

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

The only solution I found was 8 years old

may well still be valid – link to this please

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

can you say which shortcode(s) you are using on that page

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

my style pack plugin has a latest activity widget that lets you display the above

bbp style pack

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

The 2nd function assumes that you only have the default roles.

Put this first and it should work ie

//BBpress Rename Roles //
     /* BBPress Renaming Roles */
    add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'ntwb_bbpress_custom_role_names' , 1);
    function ntwb_bbpress_custom_role_names() {
    return array(
    // Keymaster
    bbp_get_keymaster_role() => array(
    'name' => 'Administrator',
    'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_keymaster_role() )
    ),
    // Moderator
    bbp_get_moderator_role() => array(
    'name' => 'Moderator',
    'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() )
    ),
    // Participant
    bbp_get_participant_role() => array(
    'name' => 'Member',
    'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() )

a link to a site where your desired layout is shown would be great

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

a link to the site where it is would be great

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

yes, it makes a gravity post and a topic post.

You could code to remove the latter as part of this function by adding further code, but in all honesty I wouldn’t worry, you’d need to be creating thousands of topics a month to make an impact on performance

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

great – glad you are fixed

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

to only have it for a specified form, you add the form id

eg

add_action( 'gform_after_submission_5', 'set_post_content', 10, 2 );

will make it fire only for gravity form ID 5

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

try this in your custom css

.container {
	width: 100%;
}

.et_pb_widget {
word-wrap : normal ;
}

#sidebar .bbp-login-form label {
	width: auto;
}

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

I need a link to your site

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

it integrates to buddypress I believe

Available Integrations

and this may help

bbPress Integration

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

and did it work ?

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

It could be coded, but it would be an hours work and several calls. A plugin that relies on bbpress should check that when loaded, but whilst I know most of mine do, I couldn’t swear that they all do !!

[@robin-w Moderator 7 years, 9 months ago]

would love to find the time to write it!!

Like all open software bbpress relies on users to make it successful, and I’m not a bbpress author, just a user who got into it, and I wrote much of the ‘getting started’ guide as I installed my first bbpress site.

If you want to help, then as above the key start point is the templates. Mapping these into a user understandable chart would be a great start, so go to

bbpress/templates/default/bbress/content-archive-forum.php
This is the first template called, and all the functions and templates you want to use will cascade from here.
