that code should put [no_support] before the topic title – is this what you are trying to achieve?
yet unbelievably there seems to be no-one who has a solution after all the years of BBpress being around.
I suspect that this is because it is the symptom of many problems.
bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes
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
so did you change the post author in wp_posts?
2.6 alpha apparently has per forum moderation
Ok, then who is the culprit?
you are
go to
dashboard>plugins>add new and serach and install bbpress

this is a theme not a bbpress plugin error.
that is install it as a new plugin not as a theme !
quickest way is to add this to your .css file
.bbp-topic-started-by {
display: none;
}
I found that the above code took away the Forums, Topics and Replies from the dashboard in bbpress.
I found some other code and modified it as follows
/**
* Add REST API support to an already registered post type.
*/
add_action( 'init', 'rew_custom_post_type_rest_support', 25 );
function rew_custom_post_type_rest_support() {
global $wp_post_types;
$post_type_name = bbp_get_reply_post_type();
if( isset( $wp_post_types[ $post_type_name ] ) ) {
$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->show_in_rest = true;
$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_base = $post_type_name;
$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_controller_class = 'WP_REST_Posts_Controller';
}
$post_type_name = bbp_get_topic_post_type();
if( isset( $wp_post_types[ $post_type_name ] ) ) {
$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->show_in_rest = true;
$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_base = $post_type_name;
$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_controller_class = 'WP_REST_Posts_Controller';
}
$post_type_name = bbp_get_forum_post_type();
if( isset( $wp_post_types[ $post_type_name ] ) ) {
$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->show_in_rest = true;
$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_base = $post_type_name;
$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_controller_class = 'WP_REST_Posts_Controller';
}
}
@barryhughes-1 – thoughts – can this be done better?
@rajaindian – I have done some coding, but do you have the ability to test this first on a test site to make sure it works?
Great – glad you are fixed !!
I suspect it is your theme doing this, so css is probably the easy fix 🙂
remove topic author from what?
do you mean stop people from creating topics?
no reply from the support site – give me a few days and I’ll see if I can find some time to look at this
Just added it as a small plugin available on my site
bbPress Rest API
@barryhughes-1 – huge thanks – the answer is always simple once you know !
I’ve just tried
http://mysite.com/wp-json/wp/v2/topic
lists all topics
http://mysite.com/wp-json/wp/v2/forum/16316
lists forum 16316
http://mysite.com/wp-json/wp/v2/topic/?sortBy=date
lists all topics newest first
ok, I’ve found a link to some code that doesn’t entirely make sense yet, but gives me some clues, but I’ll do some more digging over the next few days.
can you define
it shows nothing …
do you mean
The page doesn’t render at all
blank white page
it shows [bbp-forum-index]
hmm. don’t know what to suggest next.
Can you contact me via my website
http://www.rewweb.co.uk
ok.
1. are you admin and keymaster?
2. do you have phpmyadmin access? (if you don’t know what that is – don’t worry, just say !)
3. what version of bbpress and worpdress are you running?
4. In dashboard – can you see forums topics and replies?
no problem, glad you are fixed
if you create your top forum as a category, then it will not have entries.
so
dashboard>forums>all forums and create or edit a forum
In the forum on the right hand side you will see the options Forum Attributes and types of forum or category
great – thanks for the suggestion in the first place
