In reply to: Is there an API for bbPressbit more digging
it would appear that wordpress 4.7 takes out the filter capability
https://github.com/WP-API/WP-API/issues/2964
there is plugin that puts it back
https://github.com/WP-API/rest-filter
Otherwise I think they now want you to filter at the client end.
so http://MY_SITE.COM/wp-json/wp/v2/posts gives you all the posts, and then you pick those that are the right post type.
If you try the plugin above, then I think
http://MY_SITE.COM/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?filter[type]=topicdoes it
Please do report progress back !!
In reply to: Is there an API for bbPressIn reply to: Multisite installation: problem with mail serverDo you know how to put code in your theme’s function file ?
if so add this to it
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_do_not_reply_address’, ‘noreply@swissinformatics.org' );and that will not get overwritten on upgrade of bbpress plugin
Of course that will need a child theme, as otherwise it will get lost on a theme update !
If any of that not clear (or not possible) come back !
In reply to: Help! Topics and Forumsany chance of a link to your site?
In reply to: Is there an API for bbPressThe below is offered as potential help, and in an effort to help, so if it is rubbish, then please come back, and I will try to help further.
bbpress uses the standard wordpress posts, but with post types of ‘forum’, ‘topic’ and ‘reply’ instead of ‘post’ and ‘page’, and bbpress code itself basically uses wp_query to access the database.
The glossary for wordpress api says
GET /wp-json/wp/v2/posts to get a collection of Posts. This is roughly equivalent to using WP_Query.
so I’d imagine that you would just use the same sort of call, and use wp_query parameters to return what you wanted.
So if for wordpress you had a command that gave you say the latest 5 posts, then this same command would work but just changing whatever that code has for post_type=’post’ to post_type=’topic’
If you wanted topics from a particular forum, you would add the equivalent of post_parent = ID where ID was the forum ID
In essence if you can tell me what you want, I can give you the wp_query, and you could hopefully translate this into json.
Does any of that make sense? 🙂
In reply to: Is there an API for bbPressI know nothing of rest, but there’s one for wordpress http://v2.wp-api.org/ does that help?
In reply to: Post and reply OrderFor example some one reply today on my post 3 days ago, that post display by date today on top.
Is how it should work – is this not what is happening?
or if it is, what do you want to happen?
In reply to: preg match error in class-wp after installationbbPress 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
In reply to: Paging on custom short codethe topic index shortcode in my style pack plugin might be what you need
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes to see what is available and how it works
thanks, hopefully you are now fixed !
hey nice site (once I had turned the music off 🙂 !!)
Glad to have helped !
In reply to: Forum Layoutagree it’s a really nice site
Sorry – but beyond free help
In reply to: Remove “BBpress Forum” from menuI’d need a link to your site (not access, just the site where I can see this menu) to see what it is doing
In reply to: Forum Layoutsorry – I don’t know what you are asking
Is this your site, or a site you are trying to mimic?
ok you will need my plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
once installed and activated then go to
dashboard>settings>bbp private groups
and you’ll find a bunch of tabs
At a simple level, you would set up one group (say group 1) in ‘group name settings’ tab for users, and another group (say group 2) for admins and join all users to the users group 1 using the ‘user management’ tab, and all admins to group 2.
Then go to ‘Topic permissions’ tab and activate
Then go to each forum in turn, join it to both groups, and then set the appropriate permissions. Group 1 would just have reply permission and groups 2 full permissions.
In reply to: Forums not using the available spaceno problem – glad you are fixed !
In reply to: Forums not using the available spaceit is your theme doing this
it sets a css rule
.entry-content {
width: 71.4286%;
}and considers bbpress to be entry content.
you could try setting this to 100% – it will work for the forums page, but you’d need to check that it doesn’t upset another part of the site
it looks like you have child theme configurator that will let you have custom css, so put this in it
.entry-content { width: 100%; }if that doesn’t work try
.entry-content { width: 100% !important; }come back and let us know
bbpress has its own permissions – you need to configure the bbpress role
if you go into
dashboard>users>all users and edit a user you will find their forum role near the bottom. If you don’t want them to create topics and replies, then set it to spectator
if you want the default to be spectator, then go to
dashboard>settings>forum>auto role and set this to what you want
In reply to: Forums not using the available spaceyour theme is doing this
it doesn’t recognise this as a page, so is allowing for a sidebar.
go to
and look at item 3, and tell me what method you are using. If not Method 2, then try this
In reply to: Is possible custom all my links as nofollow???The nofollow is added on output rather than save, so if you use inspection tools you will see that the actual code sent to browser (and hence seen by robots) has nofollow
eg
<div class="bbp-reply-content"> <p> <a href="http://www.rewweb.co.uk" rel="nofollow">link to my site</a> </p>
