It will almost certainly be an issue with the role editor

A quick deactivate of that plugin to prove would be worthwhile

and then try having a look at their support forum, or posting there

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

Yes, but depends on how code savvy you are.

Basically adding this to your functions file will get a count showing

function display_counts () 
{
		$post_count = bbp_get_user_post_count( bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id )) ;
		echo "<br>Total posts : " ;
		echo $post_count ;
		echo "</br>" ;
		//add some if statements here eg if $post_count>100 echo 'hero' or a link to a picture
		}
add_action ('bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'display_counts') ;

and where I’ve indicated adding some if statements link to icons or words will do the second

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

Not seen this and should not work like that.

are those actual names of forums? If so, I’ll try it on my test site.

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

Should be immediate.

Are you using any caching plugins?

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

edited to get the link right !

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

hmm..
with bbPress you should have a login widget that takes them to the bbPress profile,

I add the following code to it to make editing obvious

<p><a href="<?php bbp_user_profile_url( bbp_get_current_user_id() ); ?>edit" >Amend Profile/Change password</a></p>

You should be able to use that in your widget, or use it to substitute

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

Hey great, look forward to seeing it !

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

@jslom

Do you fancy having a go at seeing if you can get this going for a bbpress entry !

Come back and let us know.

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

@pinkishhue
– Great – thanks for posting that – I’ll take a look

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

No, it’s been around for quite a while.

Try it !

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

that uses a class of bbp-forum-title

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

Yes, I was giving you the sort of code you need to write, in this case to write stuff to usermeta.

As I said this is not a bbPress issue as bbPress just uses wp-posts, so you’d do better on their forum

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

“On this forum you have a nice clean bar showing create topic favorites and subscriptions, how can I create this on my forum. Does not have to be exactly the same but similar.”

Answered in another post

“Not sure if that’s the correct way to go about it but seems to work!”

Suggest you read the setting up guides for how and where to change templates

Codex

“Also how can i fix the subscribe button/link as it is not displayed very well as you can see here. ”

Agree, not quite sure where this displays, will look when I get a moment

‘Also i created a page which i put the shortcode for new topic form which i link to from the main forum page as a button. this is great but the form does not display well on the page. How can i fix this? the forum is really spaced out as you can see here ‘

Not quite sure what this photo is showing, the button or the resultant page? Can you post the method or code you used on the “main forum page”

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

The form only displays when you’re logged in, so we can’t see what your issue is. Can you post a picture via say phtotbucket, and detail what you feel is wrong

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

Suspect it’s not an Askimet issue.

Might be that you were doing something to the site at the time, loads of potential issues with what your user was doing at the time, including the one you mention.

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

See the attached for some help

Layout and functionality – Examples you can use

Section 8

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

You should create a bbpress directory under your theme

ie

wp-content/themes/yourthemename/bbpress

and copy any bbpress templates to there.

bbPress will then use these instead of the default template ones

Otherwise any templates you alter will be overwritten by any upgrades and you’ll have to do the work all over again !

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

No problem, I had seen this “notify me of follow-ups” checkbox in another thread.

Suspect it needs to be a setting option in a later version, as I like it to check automatically !

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

ok, I think that’s the way to go, as whilst all my suggestions work, something is not right in the way you are implementing them, not your fault, wordpress “under the bonnet” takes a little learning

Good luck, an come back if you spot other areas, and I’ll try and resolve

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

Presume you’re not using a cahing plugin. Try refreshing your browser

Othersie I’m stumped, it and the previous solution should work

Can you post your site’s url so that I can see

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

REPEAT : It would take a long time to go through what you would need to do – Basically it is all to do with styling and functions.

The problem is that in answering this question I’d need to explain firefox and firebug, css, php bbpress structure and lots more.

But to get you started – THIS IS NOT THE SOLUTION – but a couple of lines that will see you get further forward. you’ll need to look at “inline” as well to get the is horizontal.

You could do a bar several ways, but the easiest is create a copy of your page template for bbpress to use

see https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum/ section 8

and then play with the following

in css add

#subnav {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #2020ff;
border-bottom: 1px solid #BBBBBB;
font-size: 12px;
margin-top: 81px;

}
and in you bbpress page template put under the header

<div id=”subnav”>
<ul id=”nav-user” class=”menu”>

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

Just had a look, and it all worked fine for me.

Can you check with some other users to see if it is just you, and try it with you logged out to see if being admin is affecting it.

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

If you only have yourself and your client as registered wp users, the go into Dashboard>forums> and select the forum name, and change it’s visibility to hidden. Then only logged on users will see it.

If you have lots of users, and want to restrict this forum to just you and him, then you’ll need to add a filter – come back if this is the case, and I’ll take a further look when I get a moment

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

If you’re looking at the main forum list, then the sub forums use

.bbp-forums-list li for font size

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

It’s do-able undoubtably, but not sure how much code you’d need to change.

Why are you wishing to do this?
