contact bbResolutions plugin support forum

[Robkk]

contact whatever theme your using support forum.

bbPress adds a title out of the box, with no additional editing of files.

it all depends on your theme.

[Robkk]

in a unmodified bbpress fresh install you should see the ip right around the users avatar in a topic.

block bots if its regular people that are just acting wild go edit their profile and change it to blocked.

[Robkk]

@rock17 i would just create a regular page /new-page instead

and not worry about having the same directory

[Robkk]

@evilhare if its a bbPress WP Tweaks plugin problem go to their support.

if you think it could maybe your themes compatibility with the plugin go to your theme support.

@rachelvt

this idea in a forum is kind of weird

i would just create a category in your blog , and use wordpress comments instead.

its just my opinion though.

[Robkk]

@minoumimi

i dont recommend users creating new topics from the admin bar or the backend unless there just keymasters and maybe moderators too.

i would even allow only keymasters and moderators in the backend of my site.

users should only edit the topics/replies using the admin links on each post.

if you only do this they should only edit their own posts

as for being the proper tools ,

there is a tag input box by the topic if you have tags enabled

tinymce toolbar can be activated using
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/

and the revisions should show up if you activate revision logs

attachments can be available with some plugins

other than that the other stuff the users shouldn’t touch.

[Robkk]

well not specifically what you are going for

but there is a stats plugin that counts the number of topics/replies in a certain time period.

https://github.com/pippinsplugins/bbp-stats

[Robkk]

so if we forget

no one forget.

@durqrimast contact userpros support

i cant test it out without buying the plugin.

i did find this in like 20 seconds though

http://userproplugin.com/userpro/forums/topic/integrating-userpro-profile-links-user-badges-in-bbpress/

[Robkk]

try combining the two into this and try it.

i tested in twenty-fourteen and it worked.

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic li.bbp-body div.topic {
    background-color: #0099FF;
    border: 1px solid #dd6;
}

@pilxy the uppercase thing is in your themes css

like i said if your theme author just changes every instance of .reply in his theme to .comment-reply-link everything should be fine.

[Robkk]

explain what do you mean , you keep your question very vague, and it doesnt help me try to help you.

[Robkk]

@galiulinr

manually write the meta description using an seo plugin like yoasts

keep a summary for each forum description.

unless you are trying to reduce it another way??

you can also use css to clip some of the text , but its way easier and provides more flexibility the way i mentioned above.

[Robkk]

@melanie-bund

if you are a web designer from the website thats mentioned at the bottom of the website

you can do alot of things to make it where a forum doesnt look awkward

changing posts, voices, freshess, topics lalbes at the top to just icons

and more depending on where your imagination takes you.

i suggest maybe only showing the topic count in the forum archive

and move the freshness stats below the title of each forum

and showing only the posts stats for any forum you have just entered

and move the freshness stats below the title of each topic.

more info on designing can be found at the docs

@priom

it worked when i tryed it

remember to make sure you add the right css

like for example for the keymaster role use this

.bbp-author-role-keymaster {
background:blue;
color:white;
padding:0 5px;
}

[Robkk]

long characters are going to show up like this anyway

splitboard.co
m

you could lower the font-size a little bit more with css to allow maybe 2-3 more characters
but its still going to break the word apart if there is a certain amount of characters anyway

you could add more width to div.reply-author
maybe to about 150px

add this anywhere where you can put custom css

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author, 
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author {
width: 150px;
}

you also might have to add some @media query css too if i missed it.

@durqrimast contact userpros support

i cant test it out without buying the plugin.

[Robkk]

you add this to your themes functions.php or a functionality plugin.

you then use css to style the roles from there.

add_filter('bbp_before_get_reply_author_role_parse_args', 'ntwb_bbpress_reply_css_role' );
function ntwb_bbpress_reply_css_role() {

	$role = strtolower( bbp_get_user_display_role( bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id ) ) );
	$args['class']  = 'bbp-author-role bbp-author-role-' . $role;
	$args['before'] = '';
	$args['after']  = '';

	return $args;
}

add_filter('bbp_before_get_topic_author_role_parse_args', 'ntwb_bbpress_topic_css_role' );
function ntwb_bbpress_topic_css_role() {

	$role = strtolower( bbp_get_user_display_role( bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id ) ) );
	$args['class']  = 'bbp-author-role bbp-author-role-' . $role;
	$args['before'] = '';
	$args['after']  = '';

	return $args;
}

It grabs the topic or reply author role and adds another CSS class with prefix bbp-role- so you now have a new set of CSS classes e.g. bbp-role-keymaster, bbp-role-moderator, bbp-role-participant etc that you can then add your custom CSS styles to.

@drhands

if there really is an issue

ask that plugins author for compatibility with bbPress in a future update

[Robkk]

try this

this removes some black padding when you reach a device width of 480px
15px or a little bit less should be good.
if you want more just change 15px to whatever you want.

@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
.site {
    box-shadow: 0px 2px 6px rgba(100, 100, 100, 0.3);
    margin: 48px auto;
    max-width: 960px;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 0px 15px;
}
}

this makes your bbpress forums full width

@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
.site-content {
    background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;
    float: left;
    min-height: 150px;
    width: 100%;
}
}

if you made a bbpress.php file put .bbpress in the begginning so it would be

.bbpress .site-content

@akyboy i think this topic will help.

to Mr Robin W… How to show "Website" part at User Profile

[Robkk]

i dont think this would be great idea to allow participants to create new forums.

i can see a reason why maybe you would want moderators though, but i mean it still isnt a great idea.

there is also a limit on the number of forums i think like 50 or so, so take that into consideration.

think you should have a site suggestion forum on upcoming improvements , and if your users want a specific forum to be added to your site you should post what they want and then you can choose from there.

you can create a page and add this shortcode to display the forum form in the front-end.

[bbp-forum-form]

you can also download @netwebs plugin from this link which will add a forum form for users who can moderate on their profile home

change the width from 400px to auto

blockquote {
    font-family: Open Sans,sans-serif;
    font-size: 14px;
    font-style: italic !important;
    background-color: #212123;
    border: 0.5px solid #CCC;
    border-radius: 6px;
    box-shadow: 0.5px 0.5px 0.5px #CCC;
    padding: 15px;
    width: auto;
