Not sure what you questions is, but maybe the answer is

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

sorry end of a long day, and brain is frying after several hours coding, so apologies.

can you show your current breadcrumb, and what it links to, and the desired breadcrumb and what you would like it to link to

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

Hey great that the first bit works, let me know re the second, we’ll get it working if not 🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

ok, this has driven me mad again ! I hated search last time, and I hate it even more now 🙂 – problem is that the results can be forums, topics or replies, and each one needs checking.

BUT I have fixed the pagination.

The downside is that searches will run slowly, as on each search I have to compile a full list of all forums, topics and replies that the user can see before running the search query. This takes time.

Previously I had tried to just check the current page, but that is what led to the pagination problem.

So can you try :

http://www.rewweb.co.uk/private-groups-2-5-3/

Follow the instructions, and confirm that this is working for you.

Sorry, but I cannot see an easy way to speed up search, so it’s a trade off, slow search and private groups, or fast search and no private groups unless I have a brainwave in the next few hours.

Anyway come back and let me know if this works on your site

@geeorgegeorge

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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

then come back

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

Great – glad you’re fixed, and thanks for coming back to let me know !

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

No that’s fine – do have a really large amount of topics/forums?

I’ll take another look at the code

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

I suppose I’m after

logged in as full user with all forums 174 results
Logged in as admin user – 20 results but should see all 174 – correct?
Logged in as user able to see only public forums – 18 results but should see xx
Logged in as a private user – xx results but should see yy results

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

can you post lines 30-34 please

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

Slight problem is that I’m the plugin author of bbP Private Groups 🙂

Getting search to work with private groups drove me nearly mad – and I thought I’d cracked it, but clearly not 🙁

I’ll take another look at it – it was a while ago, and I’m always learning, so maybe a fresh look might fix any residual issues.

When you say you get 174 results – are these all ones that someone logged in with restrictions would see? ie how may are you expecting based on only seeing some forums?

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

Thanks – glad you’re fixed and thanks for the kind donation

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

Hope you haven’t forgotten anything else !

ok edit

$last_active = strtotime( get_post_meta( $topic_id, '_bbp_last_active_time', true ) );
			if ($last_active < strtotime( '-10 days') )
				bbp_close_topic( $topic_id );

to

$topic_date = strtotime( get_post( $topic_id, 'post_date', true ) );
$forum_id = bbp_get_topic_forum_id($topic_id);
if ($topic_date < strtotime( '-10 days') && $forum_id == 210 )
bbp_close_topic( $topic_id );

the $forum_id == 210 needs the forum id of the forum you want to restrict.

to find this, go into

Dashboard>forums>all Forums and hover of edit of the forum you want – eg hover over edit ‘announcements’ and look in the bottom right of the screen. you’ll see the edit url that will include post=210 or whatever number.

You’ll need to test that all the above works, and come back if you need further help

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

no problem

Alter the lines

$last_active = strtotime( get_post_meta( $topic_id, '_bbp_last_active_time', true ) );
if ($last_active < strtotime( '-10 days') )

to

$topic_date = strtotime( get_post( $topic_id, 'post_date', true ) );
if ($topic_date < strtotime( '-10 days') )

should do it

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

ok, I’ve added it to my shortcode plugin

bbp additional shortcodes

you will want :

[display-forum-index forum= ‘2932, 2921′ breadcrumb=’no’ search=’no’]

You can see how to set this in

Dashboard>settings>shortcodes

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

hmmm….hadn’t fully reads your original post

ideally I’d like to get search results with pagination

That’s what you should have ! Results should show the ‘replies per page’ setting together with full pagination.

Are you sure there are more than 20 results to show?

I suspect that something else is disturbing this

If you haven’t amended bbpress code or added filters then :

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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Come back when you have done that

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

no problem

copy this code into a new notepad/notepad++ page

<?php

register_activation_hook(__FILE__, 'bbpress_topic_scheduler');

add_action('bbpress_daily_event', 'bbpress_close_old_topics');

function bbpress_topic_scheduler() {
 wp_schedule_event(time(), 'daily', 'bbpress_daily_event');
}

function bbpress_close_old_topics() {
	// Auto close old topics
	$topics_query = array(
		'author' => 0,
		'show_stickies' => false,

	);
	if ( bbp_has_topics( $topics_query ) )
		while( bbp_topics() ) {
			bbp_the_topic();
			$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id();
			$last_active = strtotime( get_post_meta( $topic_id, '_bbp_last_active_time', true ) );
			if ($last_active < strtotime( '-10 days') )
				bbp_close_topic( $topic_id );
		}
}
?>

Change the -10 days right near the bottom to whatever number you want

Save this file as ‘close_old_topics.php’

Compress/zip this file, so you have a zipped version.

then in worpress go to

Dashboard>plugins>add new and click ‘upload’ and then upload the zipped file you saved above, and then activate.

Come back if you have any issues, the code is not mine and I have not tested it, but others have used.

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

V. close to a solution – but supper calls, will finish it tomorrow and come back !

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

ok, so how tech savvy are you do you know

1. how to create a notepad/notepad++ file and copy/paste code into it?
2. FTP this to your wordpress site?

Come back and let me know

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

bbpress uses custom post types of Forums, Topics, and Replies.

Just use one of the many export plugins.

I googled ‘wordpress export custom post types to excel’ and got lots of useful looking plugins

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

I think these issues are not bbpress related.

I’d discuss these issues with the plugin authors and your host provider.

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

no problem – glad you’re fixed !

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

No leave it at 2.5.2 – might have been an issue with you mamp.

The reference to php 5.4 being stricter I found seemed to indicate that there was an issue in certain circumstances, so unless it is a firm problem I don’t want to alter code.

I know which files I changed (only 2) and will keep this as a reserve in case.

Thanks for coming back ! much appreciated !

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

Hey no problem, glad you’re fixed

I suspect that the plugin author would be better to sort you with tablepress eg

https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tablepress

but you may hot the catch 22 that editing is in the backend and you need to disable this for the forums !

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

but glad you’re fixed !

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 6 months ago]

probably because bbpress is sending them through subscriptions, as well as the notify plugin.
