In reply to: Edit Menus Problem
another one that you can spend hours trying to solve !
In reply to: bbPress Login Widgetyou can edit the profile page to prevent them changing it
In your theme create a bbpress folder
wp-content/themes/%yourtheme%/bbpress
where %yourtheme% is the name of your theme
then navigate to
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-user-edit.php
and copy this file to the bbpress folder you created above
bbpress will now use this one instead of the default.
edit this new file and take out lines 33 to 45
ie take out the following
<div> <label for="nickname"><?php _e( 'Nickname', 'bbpress' ); ?></label> <input type="text" name="nickname" id="nickname" value="<?php bbp_displayed_user_field( 'nickname', 'edit' ); ?>" class="regular-text" tabindex="<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>" /> </div> <div> <label for="display_name"><?php _e( 'Display Name', 'bbpress' ) ?></label> <?php bbp_edit_user_display_name(); ?> </div> <?php do_action( 'bbp_user_edit_after_name' ); ?>This will remove the ability to set a nickname and to change the display name.
In reply to: Edit Menus Problemyes !
When they go into
Dashboard>appearance>menus
they will see a ‘screen options’ button dropdown on the top right, if they click that they will get a list of things they can see on this screen, and they need to check the ‘forums’ one.
In reply to: Can I unpublish forumI suspect that you can still see it as either you’re a keymaster, moderator or wp-admin.
Private forums are only visible to logged in users
Hidden forums are only viewable by keymasters, moderators or adminsso you want to reset your forum to hidden, and you will still see them, but users won’t unless you give them privileges.
In reply to: Getting forum page name from pluginis_bbpress()should do it I think.
Otherwise bbpress has custom post types of forum, topic and reply.
You should also consider disabling or modifying the bbpress search function, as otherwise searches will go forum wide, giving a backdoor.
Good luck !
glad we got there !
In reply to: Forum visibility and readabilityHey, thanks it looks really good !
In reply to: vs PhPBBIf you want it to look like PhPBB then the following links should help
I have created a bbPress starter theme with a phpBB look and feel
In reply to: vs PhPBBThis is just different software, like the difference between a Ford and a Toyota.
bbPress is ‘skinny’ and you can use plugins to add functionality as you need, rather than have fat software that has loads of stuff you don’t need.
In reply to: Removing Forums From Admin BarYou should really be looking to get rid of the toolbar for everyone but moderators and above ! It shouldn’t really be seen by users.
go to dashboard>users and for each user untick the toolbar
The codex has help on putting logins and profile on the menu pages – see
https://codex.bbpress.org/layout-and-functionality-examples-you-can-use/ no.s 8 & 11/12
I’ve submitted a trac ticket to improve the code !
In reply to: Forum visibility and readabilityThanks for the great feedback – much appreciated !
glad to have someone else looking !
My ajax is hopeless !
Your solution is valid, but digging for it produced some code issue
we have several issues here
firstly the filter call is wrong in the code ie
bbpress/includes/topics/template.php has two errors
function bbp_get_topic_subscription_link( $args = array() ) { ......Parse the arguments...... ), 'get_forum_subscribe_link' );so the function is ‘get_topic_subscription’ but the parse argument reverts to ‘get_forum_subscribe‘
whilst it doesn’t affect this issue the error is repeated for favorites in the same file
function bbp_get_topic_favorite_link( $args = array() ) { ..........), 'get_forum_favorite_link' );needs changing to ‘get_topic_favorite_link’`
This doesn’t affect the issue as such, other than the filters above are wrong.
But filtering bbp_get_topic_subscription_link is totally pointless, as it immediately calls
‘get_user_subscribe_link’ which them resets the |, so whilst the filter seems to correct it once, any click just resets it.So your filter to get_user_subscribe_link is the correct one, but for the wrong reason.
Really the code needs to have the filter in one place only (suspect user)
Anyway the solution for @majid436 is as you suggest
function hide_before3 ($args = array() ) { $args['before'] = ''; return $args; } add_filter ('bbp_before_get_user_subscribe_link_parse_args','hide_before3');it will not defeat me, but just need to lick wounds for a few days, then I’ll be back !
I’ve just spent two hours debugging this, I’ve found three errors, fixed it once only for it to come back.
I give up for the moment !
In reply to: All my posts appear on one topic pageGlad you’re fixed !
I think that you will struggle to maintain a bbpress + version, and that the ‘+’ will just get bigger and bigger and bigger. I probably have 20+ plugins I could write to do things that people ask for on the forums.
Many people just want a particular part that suits them, and the bbpress philosophy is to keep it ‘skinny’ and let people use plugins.
Making a big fat version would make it really hard to develop.
The real problems are two:
1. That people aren’t aware of the skinny philosophy – maybe I’ll put something at the start of the documentation to make this clearer.
2. People aren’t aware of what plugins are available and which work. This is really because you have to have a problem or know what you want before you look for a plugin. This is a bit like buying a car with no add-ons/accessories list. So no-one tells you that electric windows are available, so you look for an expensive air-conditioning system because you don’t know how to open the windows. Solution is that we need to create a plugin list that starts with what it does, not with the plugin name or with searches for tagseg

In reply to: Forum visibility and readabilityOk, I’ve done a version 2 with a settings page that lets you select from :
Send non-logged in users to any page you wish
Lets you set a message for the freshness column
Hide topic and reply counts
show descriptions
Remove the ‘private’ prefix from the displayed titlesSo hopefully more friendly and flexible.
Give it a try
I have left the old version on the website in case you need to revert back.
Otherwise let me know if it breaks anything or I can improve it.
I’ll load it to the wordpress plugins page in a few days

In reply to: Forum visibility and readability” just a little bit overworked and start making mistakes” – I know how you feel !!! 🙂
weird, I’ll try it on my test site when I get a moment !
In reply to: User ranks and user rolesThe answer is yes, but I’d need to take a look at the plugin, and will try and do so over the next few days
In reply to: Forum visibility and readabilityPhew ! I read the first post and thought oh dear, then your second came through, glad it’s working.
I’ll add a settings page to the code so that you can set which page it goes to for future users.
In reply to: User ranks and user roles1. if you need these adding to bbpress roles, then as per previous:
“what capabilities do you need for the other role?
see
https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/
It’s quite east to add, just let me know what you need.”
come back, and I’ll do a quick plugin.2. On your rank thing, can you specify
the rank names you want
what levels you want them at eg 50 posts
what counts as a post – ie topic or topics and repliesand I’ll tinker with the posts plugin to display this instead as a one off, and maybe cut it into a more general plugin later
In reply to: 90 second post timeI’d check to see if two plugins are conflicting or theme issue, or if it is server related.
Check other plugins
Check that no other plugins are affecting this.
Turn off all other plugins apart from bbpress, and see if that fixes the problem. If the problem is resolved, add back one at a time to see which is causing the conflict.
Check themes
If plugins are not the cause, then it may be a theme issue. Switch to a default theme, such as twentytwelve, and test.
Come back and tell us if any of those speeded it. If so then you know the problem, if not contact your service provider as it should be a few seconds at most.
In reply to: Trouble w/ users posting with Google Chrome?Sorry to hear this.
Try it with a default theme such as twentytwelve.
If this fixes, then it is a theme issue.
