on the first one, can you clarify that accessing
dashboard>forums just sends you to the homepage, or can you tell me exactly what actions are needed.
ok, whilst out I think I know what the issue is.
Firstly can you confirm that apart from redirecting you to home, the code at the top of this thread works? ie redirection to the wrong place is the only outstanding issue.
If so, the issue is that after you delete a topic, bbpress sends you to back to the topic, which as a moderator you are allowed to see trashed topics, but as a partyicipant you are not. This then will send you to a 404 page, which in your case I think just sends you to home.
So let me look at ways to get around this.
thanks – I’ll take a look
though re-reading the thread this morning, I think I have not fixed anything, juts done it another way.
and that doesn’t work either – forget the code above
ok, I’ve taken pity and kicked this round for an hour – I expect to be on your Christmas list !!!
This seems to work, although please do some testing for all roles, and check it out.
/*Customize the BBPress roles to allow Participants to trash topics*/
add_filter( 'bbp_get_caps_for_role', 'ST_add_role_caps_filter', 10, 2 );
function ST_add_role_caps_filter( $caps, $role ){
// Only filter for roles we are interested in!
if( $role == bbp_get_participant_role() ) {
$caps = array(
// Primary caps
'spectate' => true,
'participate' => true,
// Forum caps
'read_private_forums' => true,
// Topic caps
'publish_topics' => true,
'edit_topics' => true,
'delete_topics' => true,
// Reply caps
'publish_replies' => true,
'edit_replies' => true,
'delete_replies' => true,
// Topic tag caps
'assign_topic_tags' => true,
);
}
return $caps;
}
/*then only allow participants to trash their own topics*/
add_filter( 'bbp_map_reply_meta_caps', 'ST_tweak_trash_meta_caps', 11, 4 );
add_filter( 'bbp_map_topic_meta_caps', 'ST_tweak_trash_meta_caps', 11, 4 );
function ST_tweak_trash_meta_caps( $caps, $cap, $user_id, $args ){
// apply only to delete_reply and delete_topic
if ( $cap == "delete_reply" || $cap == "delete_topic" ){
// Get the post
$_post = get_post( $args[0] );
if ( !empty( $_post ) ) {
// Get caps for post type object
$post_type = get_post_type_object( $_post->post_type );
//$caps = array();
// Add 'do_not_allow' cap if user is spam or deleted
if ( bbp_is_user_inactive( $user_id ) ) {
$caps[] = 'do_not_allow';
// Moderators can always edit forum content
} elseif ( user_can( $user_id, 'moderate' ) ) {
$caps[] = 'moderate';
// User is author so allow edit if not in admin
} elseif ( user_can( $user_id, 'participate' ) && ( (int) $user_id === (int) $_post->post_author ) ) {
$caps = array();
//$caps[] = $post_type->cap->delete_posts;
// Unknown so do not allow
} else {
$caps[] = 'do_not_allow';
}
}
}
// return the capabilities
return $caps;
}
can you tell us
what theme you are using
what other plugins you are using
no problem – not so long ago I was a newbie !!
the bbpress search widget does that – is there something particular that you want?
I am not sure I understand what it is you are asking
wp-query is a wordpress function
https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query
Maybe you can take a look on my Site?
sorry that is beyond free support.
I have try it but bulk action doesn´t work.
can you say what didn’t work – some detail would be useful
you can use the bulk action in dashboard>users to change current ones
it would only apply to new users.
This theme uses the genesis framework, so I suspect you will need to add this plugin to make it all work
bbPress Genesis Extend
In the bottom of my forum page there’s a ‘Suggest Category’ button
Don’t know what is creating that.
can we have a link please.
I want to show a description for a forum in the forums list. Is there a way to enable this with bbPress, or a plugin that does it?
use my style pack plugin
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum display and look at 6 & 7
The forum description is put in the content of the forum dashboard>forums
try this – it should work but is untested
Please come back and let us know if it does or doesn’t
add_filter ('kal_get_user_role_map()' , 'bbp_get_user_role_map()' ) ;
function kal_get_user_role_map() {
// Get the default role once here
$default_role = bbp_get_default_role();
return (array) apply_filters( 'kal_get_user_role_map', array (
'administrator' => bbp_get_keymaster_role(),
'editor' => $default_role,
'author' => bbp_get_spectator_role(),
'contributor' => $default_role,
'subscriber' => $default_role
) );
}
This goes in your function file
my style pack plugin has an option for this
install and activate and then go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum display items 6 & 7
great – glad you’re fixed
This link goes to forums, rather than a 500 error
Forums
try
dashboard>settings>permalinks
and just click save to refresh these
as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.
further thought – have you tried deleting the bbpress.php – it is only needed if the page.php isn’t doing what you want
sorry, I’ve taken a further look and I cannot work out why it is not working
