pretty sure it’s theme related – and in particular that text is allowed to scroll behind the menu, so when you click to a reply, the start point is hidden behind the menu.

Beyond help on here I’m afraid – sorry but only so much I can do without needing to spend hours on it.

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

where do you want that to put something – I presume in the content of a topic/reply? and what doe that shortcode do ?

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

if you have a public site and a link to an example, I’ll see if I can find anything obvious

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

wasn’t meant to be abrupt, just a statement 🙂

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

all sites need a staging site !!

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

In basic bbpress, if you subscribe to a forum, then you should receive an email when a new topic is posted. If you subsequently subscribe to that topic, you should receive emails when a reply is posted.

As for the symbols, since you’re using the buddyboss theme, then I suspect that this is part of that, and as a paid product, you should check the documentation and/or raise a support ticket with them.

thanks for the post

bbpress includes a version of the wordpress ‘after..parse_args’ which will let you do this so for

•File …/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/template.php line 1735:
change ‘tinymce’ => false, into ‘tinymce’ => true,
•File …/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/template.php line 1736:
change ‘teeny’ => true, into ‘teeny’ => false,

you could put this code into a functions file or plugin

//editor bbpress
function rew_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
    $args['tinymce'] = true;
    $args['teeny'] = false;
    return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'rew_enable_visual_editor' );

and the ability to filter functions so for

•File …/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/template.php line 1858:
Remove array_push( $buttons, ‘image’ ); to remove the ‘standard’ image insert button that asks for a full url to an image, since we are replacing this by the [photo] shortcode generator.

use this code in your functions file or plugin

function rew_remove_image_button ($buttons) {
	if (($key = array_search('image', $buttons)) !== false) {
		unset($buttons[$key]);
	}
return $buttons ;
}

add_filter( 'bbp_get_teeny_mce_buttons', 'rew_remove_image_button' );

The you don’t need to alter bbpress files

Let me know if I can help further

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

hmm, apart from the standard elimination tests below, I can’t think of anything obvious

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.

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

oh, and since you have changed from http to https – I don’t think it will make a difference but try resetting permalinks – just grasping at straws here !

dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save

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

ok try resetting the permalinks as a first step

dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save

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

can only suggest that you delete the user and reset them up – you could spend hours trying to tresolve it !

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

and both definitely have editor set in

dashboard>user<all users>edit user>personal options>disable the visual editor when writing

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

I am not aware of how to do this

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

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

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

ok, put it into the child theme and remove form the parent theme – that way it doesn’t get lost on updates

so you have a bbpress specific sidebar as per

Layout and functionality – Examples you can use

yes ?

If so then in your new bbpress.php replace

line 49 ish

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

with

<?php dynamic_sidebar( 'bbp-sidebar'); ?>

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

ok, much of this will be your theme or standard bbpress

add this plugin and use it to style

bbp style pack

on registration, bbpress uses wordpress registration, so looks like that needs troubleshooting

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

most functions return a variable, so filters need to also.

these ‘before..parse args’ ones always need $args returned

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

ok, I was unaware of that, and it seems that it has been withdrawn as it is not on their website

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

Try this

function cxr_subforum_filter($args) {
 $args = (array (
'before' => '<tr>',
'after' => '</tr>',
'link_before' => '<td>',
'link_after' => '</td>',
'separator' => '<br>',
 ));
 return $args ;
 }
add_filter( 'bbp_before_list_forums_parse_args', 'cxr_subforum_filter' );

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

As far as I know there is only a wordpress version

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

This is a known bug

add this to your functions file

// Blocked users should NOT get an email to subscribed topics
function bbptoolkit_fltr_get_forum_subscribers( $user_ids ) {
        if (!empty( $user_ids ) ) {
                $new_user_ids = array();
                foreach ($user_ids as $uid) {
                        if (bbp_get_user_role($uid) != 'bbp_blocked') {
                                $new_user_ids[] = $uid;
                        }
                }
                return $new_user_ids;
        } else {
                return $user_ids;
        } 
}; 
// add the filter 
add_filter( 'bbp_forum_subscription_user_ids', 'bbptoolkit_fltr_get_forum_subscribers', 10, 1 );

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

ok, the following assumes you know how to use FTP, if not come back

You need to find

wp-content/themes/salient/page-sidebar.php

copy this and rename it to

wp-content/themes/salient/bbpress.php

so that you end up with both ie

wp-content/themes/salient/page-sidebar.php
wp-content/themes/salient/bbpress.php

bbpress will now use this for all forums, so you should see a sidebar on all forum pages

then see which sidebar is appearing, and we can amend it if needed.

We do need to talk about child themes at a later stage

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

ok, do you want the sidebar on the left or right?

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

ok, come back and let us know

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

ok, so you need to define it down to server or client

If you log in as test – it works – yes?
If so log in as him and see if that works.

If it does then it is his PC

If it doesn’t then it is server.
