    Does the existing plugin still work?

    Old plugins can be very stable and not need much updating.

    If it works, I might contact the author.

    But I need someone to confirm it works first (big difference between updating a working plugin and getting a non-working one going again !)

    I haven’t got 2.6rc3 live at the moment as I’m tied up supporting the live version. However I’d guess that moderator support per forum is front end only, as they’ll have a participant role when you access the backend.

    I presume that the user is participant and sees no options for topics and replies in the admin section – yes ?

    Stills shows under User Roll

    even after this ?

    Anywhere in your theme (i put on a custom page template), use this:

    $wp_roles = new WP_Roles();
    $wp_roles->remove_role("bbp_role");

    I presume Rkk has deleted.

    my styles pack plugin has a shortcode

    [Profile label=’This is the label’] will show

    which will let you add that as a text box beneath the standard bbpress login.

    bbp style pack

    once installed and activated – go to

    dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes to find what the options are

    try

    #bbp-forum-9 li.bbp-forum-info a.bbp-forum-title:before {
    	font-family: FontAwesome;
    	content: '\f058';
    	color: #6190C3;
    	font-size: 30px;
     }

    the edit time is set in

    dashboard>settings>forums>forum user settings > disallow editing after

    default is 10 mins

    you can set this to as may 9’sd as yo like eg

    9999999999 to make it pretty well always editable !

    Just wondering how the script makes the decision if I’m creating or editing a topic.

    not an area of the plugin I’ve yet delved into ! hense the quick and dirty !

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    is the code still in there – I can’t see it and you seem to have gone back to the original center alignment

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    that’s something that a plugin is adding – what email/bbpress additional plugins are you running?

    I know you are fixed, but this information will help someone else who later has the same problem šŸ™‚

    this css should work

    #bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-content img, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content img {
    	max-width: 100%;
    	display: block;
    	margin-left: auto;
    	margin-right: auto;
    }

    presume your theme has a custom css area you can put this in ?

    plugin updates can do funny things.

    can you just say where exactly you did

    ‘switching from HTML email type to PLAIN text’

    Thanks

    the quick and dirty solution is to get the topic IP before executing bbp_insert_reply and reset it afterwards

    eg (untested)

    $reply_data = array('post_parent'=>$post_parent, 'post_content' => $post_content);
    $reply_meta = array('forum_id'=>$post_forum_id, 'topic_id' => $post_topic_id);
    //get the topic IP so we can reset it later
    $ip = get_post_meta( $topic_id, '_bbp_author_ip', false );
    bbp_insert_reply($reply_data,$reply_meta);
    //reset the topic IP
    update_post_meta( $topic_id, '_bbp_author_ip', $ip, false );

    I could spend a long time working out a more elegant fix, but hopefully the above will be enough !

    ok, I know why it is doing it, I’ll do some digging to see how to get around

    your function calls

    bbp_insert_reply

    this function is in

    /includes/replies/functions.php starts line 29

    This creates the reply, and then on line 64 it has

    // Update the topic
    	$topic_id = bbp_get_reply_topic_id( $reply_id );
    	if ( !empty( $topic_id ) ) {
    		bbp_update_topic( $topic_id );
    	}

    bbp_update_topic is held in

    /includes/topics/functions.php starting line 818

    has a check to see if you are creating or editing a topic.

    if you are not editing a topic, it presumes that you are creating so starting line 884

    // Update associated topic values if this is a new topic
    	if ( empty( $is_edit ) ) {
    
    		// Update poster IP if not editing
    		update_post_meta( $topic_id, '_bbp_author_ip', bbp_current_author_ip(), false );

    since at that point your call via bbp_insert_reply and bbp_update_topic is NOT an edit, it assumes it is a new topic and updates with the current user IP as above.

    let me think about easiest way to fix.

    I cannot see from user ned what the problem is.

    if you have two sites, one working and one not, then you will need to go through every setting to see where the difference is.

    Even if you gave me access to both sites – I could still spend hours working out what is wrong, so sorry that is beyond free help.

    ok, so do you have a plugin adding images (eg GD bbPress Attachments) or how do you do this?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    sorry can you just clarify

    Topic A
    Reply B

    Does topic A acquire reply B authors’s IP address, or does reply B get Topic A authors IP address ?

    I am fairly sure that this is a theme issue.

    As a test switch to the theme twentyseventeen and see if the issue goes away.

    you’re welcome

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    ok, no idea why this is happening – it could be a theme or plugin issue

    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.

    Themes

    If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

    Then come back

    your image is using your themes ‘aligncenter’ property, which causes it to display as a new block, so it starts ‘under’ where the author finishes.

    I’m not sure how you are adding images – do you get an option of how to display them, if so don’t do center
