In reply to: bbress custom fields, auto-populate topic content
yes I’d seen that question and had a look – like all things it’s possible but not using css (or at least I’m not good enough at css to tell you how !)
I’ll hopefully come back to it shortly when I get a moment !
Great – glad you’re fixed.
In reply to: Newby a little lostI suspect you got to full width by creating a page called forums and putting
[bbp-forum-index] in it.You would then have set this page to full width on the right hand side of the page where it says template !
This plugin does this

In reply to: Submit and Reply button not working with themeIt’s not listed as one that is known to be compatible with bbpress
http://themeforest.net/collections/2997867-bbpress-compatible-themes
Sorry but you’ll need to contact the theme author for a fix.
In reply to: Missing Topic Intro‘make less of an assumption about the degree of tech literacy us ordinary users have?’
I had assumed because you were able to look at wp-tables, you were techy !
I try hard to match responses to authors, but it’s difficult sometimes to judge the degree of technicality, and I’m just a humble volunteer on this site who does this for nothing and has a day job and family, so please don’t shoot those that are trying (if badly sometimes :-)) to help !
Are you techy enough to edit and ftp .php files, or add code to your functions file? If so then come back and I’ll try to help further
In reply to: Forum styling broken on category viewI haven’t taken a detailed look at your problem but you could try adding this to you functions file
//This function adds descriptions to the sub forums function custom_list_forums( $args = '' ) { // Define used variables $output = $sub_forums = $topic_count = $reply_count = $counts = ''; $i = 0; $count = array(); // Parse arguments against default values $r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array( 'before' => '<ul class="bbp-forums-list">', 'after' => '</ul>', 'link_before' => '<li class="bbp-forum">', 'link_after' => '</li>', 'count_before' => ' (', 'count_after' => ')', 'count_sep' => ', ', 'separator' => ', ', 'forum_id' => '', 'show_topic_count' => true, 'show_reply_count' => true, ), 'list_forums' ); // Loop through forums and create a list $sub_forums = bbp_forum_get_subforums( $r['forum_id'] ); if ( !empty( $sub_forums ) ) { // Total count (for separator) $total_subs = count( $sub_forums ); foreach ( $sub_forums as $sub_forum ) { $i++; // Separator count // Get forum details $count = array(); $show_sep = $total_subs > $i ? $r['separator'] : ''; $permalink = bbp_get_forum_permalink( $sub_forum->ID ); $title = bbp_get_forum_title( $sub_forum->ID ); $content = bbp_get_forum_content($sub_forum->ID) ; // Show topic count if ( !empty( $r['show_topic_count'] ) && !bbp_is_forum_category( $sub_forum->ID ) ) { $count['topic'] = bbp_get_forum_topic_count( $sub_forum->ID ); } // Show reply count if ( !empty( $r['show_reply_count'] ) && !bbp_is_forum_category( $sub_forum->ID ) ) { $count['reply'] = bbp_get_forum_reply_count( $sub_forum->ID ); } // Counts to show if ( !empty( $count ) ) { $counts = $r['count_before'] . implode( $r['count_sep'], $count ) . $r['count_after']; } // Build this sub forums link $output .= $r['before'].$r['link_before'] . '<a href="' . esc_url( $permalink ) . '" class="bbp-forum-link">' . $title . $counts . '</a>' . $show_sep . $r['link_after'].'<div class="bbp-forum-content">'.$content.'</div>'.$r['after']; } // Output the list return $output ; } } add_filter('bbp_list_forums', 'custom_list_forums' );In reply to: Missing Topic IntroWhere in the thread does it say this is a UAM issue?
I did 7 posts ago ! – ‘Anyway one for the plugin author I’m afraid !’
Did you do the checks that Stephen suggested ?
I am pretty sure it is the same problem… If the plugin you are using marks the post ‘private’ (you can confirm this by looking at the post in the wp_posts table, if the post_status for the topic is private then this is the same issue.
Not a definitive guide but if you are logged in and you are the topic author who authored that topic I expect you will find that they can see both the topic content and the follow up reply.
and what results did you get?
In reply to: Missing Topic Introsorry this is an issue with the UAM plugin, so as stated you’d need to refer the issue to them.
In reply to: Setup bbPress as a standalone WP installIntegration is not an option for us, as explained in my original post.
was just trying to help by giving you a test site that you could fix the issue in – only an option 🙂
therefore yes you are doing wp and bbpress on a sub-domain, should work quite easily !
In reply to: bbress custom fields, auto-populate topic contentDo you want me to include the bbpress custom fields code?
yes please !In reply to: Newby a little lost‘Do I have to change the format (ie: NOT full page) in order to see the sidebar?’
Yes !In reply to: Moving bbPress Edit profile formsI’m sorry but I know nothing of buddypress, but I thought you wanted your page to look like the bbp profilepage, and that simply uses code to create the urls hence why I quoted them !!
If you just type these urls in, they work, they don’t need any code.
so what happens if you just rename the form-user-edit.php to settings.php and drop it in the right directory?
In reply to: Sticky thread Issuesthat was quick – glad you’re fixed !
In reply to: Newby a little lostNow you’ve got it full width, you may decide that actually you want a sidebar, but one for your forum that includes logon, register etc.
see
In reply to: Sticky thread Issuesyes,
add this to your functions file
//This function adds the words sticky before the title function bbp_sticky_display () { if(bbp_is_topic_sticky()) { echo '<span class="sticky-display">' ; echo 'Sticky Topic' ; echo '</span>' ; } } add_action ('bbp_theme_before_topic_title', 'bbp_sticky_display') ;and this to your style.css
#bbpress-forums .sticky-display{ background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #5BB75B; color: #FFFFFF; display: in-line; padding: 5px; }you can change the words and styling to suit !
In reply to: Moving bbPress Edit profile formsYes, we will get there, but I’m not totally clear on how you are doing your bit, so am struggling to help !
‘I’m not sure what you mean by calling each by their url. ‘
Basically if you hover over the links in the profile page you get
profile http://www.mysite.com/forums/users/%username%/
topics started http://www.mysite.com/forums/users/%username%/topics
replies created http://www.mysite.com/forums/users/%username%/replies
favorites http://www.mysite.com/forums/users/%username%/favorites
subscriptions http://www.mysite.com/forums/users/%username%/subscriptions
edit http://www.mysite.com/forums/users/%username%/editwhere %username% is the username
so if in your coding you already know the username, then you can simply put these usls on your landing page.
alternately you can just call the forum-user-edit.php from your page.
What I still don’t understand is what ‘page’ you are trying to do this one.
is this what you are describing as the template file? and which file is that and is it a php file?
Sorry if I’m sounding thick, but come back and I’ll try and help further
In reply to: Per Forum Permissions by Group@smileyriley21 did this do what you needed? latest version is at
In reply to: Moving bbPress Edit profile formsok, you could just call each by their url
or if you know the username you could call the form from within a page using the ‘insert php’ plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/insert-php/
then
[insert_php]
$user_id = whatever you used to get the user-id
$filelocation=”wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-user-edit.php”;
include($_server[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’].$filelocation);
[/insert_php]In reply to: How do you put the "My Profile" link on the menu?great, looks like a solution !
In reply to: Newby a little lostYou nee to get bbpress to use a full width page template
see
In reply to: bbress custom fields, auto-populate topic contentThis looks like it would be really useful to some people.
Can you post the whole solution, inc. the javascript? so that people can just copy/paste and then amend.
In reply to: Setup bbPress as a standalone WP installThere should be no reason they won’t integrate.
However the first thing you should do is create a test site see
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
The you can do everything without any pain !
From what you describe, if you really want to go to a separate route, then the simplest route is for you to have two domains the primary and a subdomain. On the subdomain you would install wordpress, and the same theme as your main site and then add bbpress, put the files in there. As you then say, you’d just call this subdomain from your main site.
In reply to: Hello from Japan! How to remove the anchor tag…you will need to filter two functions
1. bbp_get_forum_freshness_link
2. You will need to amend the freshness function
I have no idea how into coding you are, so come back and let me know so that I can help you further
How much php do you know
do you know how to edit files
do you know how to ftphttps://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
would get you further than the members plugin
With this you could have
5 forums fully visible and useable
by not setting any restriction on them1 forum set to restrict to say group 1 called ‘members’
and
all ‘members’ participant users of group 1 ‘members’
all other users are just participants with no group set.Then set forum visibility
All forum users would see that all 6 forums exist. They would also see all the topic listings, but if they clicked a topic, they would get a message (which you define, maybe sending them to say a sign up page).
so it would make the forums and headings of topics visible, but not the content of topics.
Best I can do without coding !
