Now 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 !
Different access levels to different forums is not within the core product or my private groups plugin. I’m am struggling without some bespoke coding to think how you would achieve this.
In reply to: Newby a little lostNo that (apart from the fact that you did forum 2 twice!) is exactly what I expected to see.
Now categories are areas where you group forums together, but categories have no topics inside them, they are just a “header” if you like.
Forums have topics, and forums can also have sub forums again with topics.
So I think for what you want, you should just have several forums (like forum 3) with no parents, then they will list straight away in your forum tab, and stop that extra click that you wanted rid of.
Come back if that is not clear
In reply to: Newby a little lostok, I think you basically have forums and categories a bit mixed.
Forums tend to belong to categories, rather than as you have, so I would get rid of the forum called “forums”
Then change the ‘Category test’ category to have no parent
Then set up a forum called forum 1, and put it’s parent as ‘category test’
Then set up a forum called forum 2, and put it’s parent as ‘category test’
Then set up a forum called forum 3, and put it’s parent as ‘none’You should now be able to click the menu and see category test with 2 forums belonging to it, and a 3rd forum that exists in it’s own right.
Do you intent to have more than one forum, or just one forum with all topics in that?
In reply to: Newby a little lostNo, it is part of forum rules that we don’t get involved in access to individual sites.
But if you come back with the info, then I’ll try to help further
In reply to: Freshness bbpressok, I think your best bet is to start a fresh topic called something like “conversion from phpbb issues” and repeat the text of your first post.
I would then hope that Stephen Edgar who is the conversion expert will pick this up.
He’ll probably not spot this post as it now is quite long
In reply to: Freshness bbpressok, though I suspect you have already done so, can you run ALL of the forum repair tools – although only one at a time !
The come back and let us know if that fixed or not
In reply to: Templating Issuegreat – glad you’re fixed !
In reply to: Freshness bbpressok so installation should show 9 months 4 weeks the post in General installation, not 4 years 5 months which belongs to prerequisites.
Is this a conversion from another forum, or if not, when did this problem start to occur?
In reply to: Templating Issueok, the simplest way would be as follows
In you theme create a directory called bbpress
ie wp-content/your-theme-name/bbpress
The copy the following file into this
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
so you end up with a file
wp-content/your-theme-name/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
bbpress will now sue this file instead of the default one, so then edit this file to change line 68 from
<span class="bbp-topic-freshness-author"><?php bbp_author_link( array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_forum_last_active_id(), 'size' => 14 ) ); ?></span>to
<span class="bbp-topic-freshness-author"><?php //bbp_author_link( array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_forum_last_active_id(), 'size' => 14 ) ); ?></span>If your theme is a child theme, then that will be fine. If it is a main theme, then just keep a note of this change, as you may have to repeat it on a theme update.
In reply to: Freshness bbpresscan you post a url to your site, with an example of where this is happening?
In reply to: Change Breadcrumb url linkIn reply to: "Breadcrumb" trail Forums link not working@demonboy reading through the thread above, I’m not sure what you think the issue is – it is unclear to me that a consistent issue is being stated in the threads above.
Can you just restate what the behaviour you either want or don’t want by saying what happens now and what exactly you would like to happen.
Thanks
In reply to: Templating IssueDo you want the username removed or repositioned?
In reply to: bbpress sidebar@nenno what theme and other plugins are you using?
