In reply to: reply feed 404 not found
I know, but you should only use 1 sitemap plugin for your main site.
They both do the same thing.
As for the 404s , I don’t know why you are having /feed urls in your sitemap ,but I know that you really shouldn’t have replies in your sitemap.
In reply to: User replies are just not showing up!Try some troubleshooting first if you haven’t already. Especially the theme and plugin sections.
In reply to: Symbols in front / ForumLink to your site so I can see what you are talking about.
In reply to: WP Users Links on BBPress ForumsUsually when you have BuddyPress installed the Extended Profiles component is activated by default, bbPress forum user profiles links use the BuddyPress extended profiles.
You can see if copying the BuddyPress templates into your child theme would fix things.
In reply to: Tackback spam in ForumAre you sure they aren’t blog comment spam?? Akismet does a good job at blog comment spam though , bbPress also has integrations with Akismet.
I created this trac ticket awhile ago because of this topic, and also I found a plugin that kind of does similar functionality.
The plugin I mentioned is quite broken and has fixes mentioned in the plugins support forum by users.
If a developer or anyone else wants to fork/fix the plugin I mentioned in this trac ticket they can go ahead. Even better if you help add this to core.
In reply to: reply feed 404 not foundDon’t include Replies in your sitemap , and try to only use 1 sitemap plugin.
In reply to: Add BBpress image to toolbarYou can also use this plugin if you have BuddyPress installed too.
In reply to: reply feed 404 not foundhmm this one is weird, I usually noindex single replies though.
In reply to: 500 Internal server error when editing replycopy the bbPress templates to your child theme , it has fixed this issue for me before when using Twenty Fifteen.
In reply to: Options for “subscribe” email notificationsThis plugin might help.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-custom-reply-notifications/
Just copy loop-forums.php from the bbPress plugin templates into a folder called bbpress in your child theme, or edit the one that is already custom from your theme to a child theeme.
Edit this and change Forum to what you want.
<li class="bbp-forum-info"><?php _e( 'Forum', 'bbpress' ); ?></li>Okay they dont show up on the frontend of your site or the backend or neither?? try to explain a little more.
In reply to: Daily/Weekly Digest EmailsTheir isn’t a plugin alternative as I know of. You might want to consider contacting the author about any issues though. I have looked up possible issues and I think that the emails are just going straight to your emails spam folder?? The author probably has to use WP-Cron to send out the emails.
You might be able to do the same functionality of this plugin with an external service like mailchimp though.
In reply to: Loop to only echo out topic titles with a hrefCant you just use the Recent Topics widget and disable showing the author information and also ordering them by Topics with Recent Replies or Newest Topics.
So maybe, I should create the learning platform as I envision it and take a more relaxed stance on the fact that parts of the profile and member information are visible for guests.
Hey I mean it is your website you can do whatever you want to it. If you feel the information people are passing on your forum should be private you can make it private. The other solution that I thought of is similar to Robins code and that is to just put a conditional if the user is logged in to a bbpress.php file so it would only work on bbPress pages (and hopefully not mess with woothemes sensei). But this would require code editing/WordPress template knowledge.
In reply to: CSS..?It is definitely possible.
You might want to create custom templates then style it to want you want from there.
copy the loop-single-topic.php file into your child theme in a folder called bbpress. THen add the topic excerpt using
bbp_topic_excerpt()and also place the post count into an icon font.You can add topic thumbnails with a plugin I think, or just manually put that before every topic.
You can also change the heading to comments by copying/editing I think loop-topics.php into your child theme in a folder called bbpress also.
In reply to: BBCode Buttons?if you have the pro version they give you an editor for the bbcode/shortcode buttons.
If you are messing with the bbPress default quicktags you can change the buttons output display to bbcode/shortcodes instead of html.
If you look at this you can see that it says you can copy the Javsacript from bbPress to your custom child theme.
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/
So you can copy the editor.js file from bbPress and created custom buttons for your bbPress installation from there. You can see an example to change the output of the code button to just use quote marks.
/* Use backticks instead of <code> for the Code button in the editor */ if ( typeof( edButtons ) !== 'undefined' ) { edButtons[110] = new QTags.TagButton( 'code', 'code', '<code>', '</code>', 'c' ); QTags._buttonsInit(); }This will I think use the bold, italics , and lists format that they use in the plugin.
/* Use some bbcode outputs for the quicktags editor in bbPress */ if ( typeof( edButtons ) !== 'undefined' ) { edButtons[10] = new QTags.TagButton( 'strong', 'b', '[b]', '[/b]', 'b' ); edButtons[20] = new QTags.TagButton( 'em', 'i', '[i]', '[/i]', 'i' ); edButtons[80] = new QTags.TagButton( 'ul', 'ul', '[ul]', '[/ul]', 'u' ); edButtons[90] = new QTags.TagButton( 'ol', 'ol', '[ol]', '[/ol]', 'o' ); edButtons[100] = new QTags.TagButton( 'li', 'li', '[li]', '[/li]', 'l' ); QTags._buttonsInit(); }Hmm I probably need to contact the author about the incompatibility with the WooThemes Sensei online courses, or I will just check out what is causing the issue later.
Robins zip file does not contain a plugin, it is just custom bbPress templates with some conditional code.
You can email me about all these issues, and also since this topic is messing up too. I am going to be busy today though because of celebrating July 4th with the family though, but I will be there to help you out definitely tomorrow.
In reply to: bbPress – Private Replies bugContact the plugin author about this bug.
In reply to: Help. I’m stuck. White screen. Fatal Error.This is usually caused when customizing theme or plugins. It also could be a memory limitation but try the theme and plugin route first.
In reply to: Say hi to RobkkThanks @johnjamesjacoby 🙂 I am going to set off a bunch of green colored fireworks off tomorrow because of this.
In reply to: Trouble Importing phpbbI thought in my search of the forums here I had found something saying they no longer supported 3.0.x conversions and now only supported 3.1.x.
It the opposite for the current version , but when 2.6 comes out 3.1 will only be supported.
And the link you sent, what is that for? Is that just showing how to amend the phpbb conversion film? I’m not quite clear.
Basically you needed to see the reply to the topic. Use the patch and see if it fixes your import.
Of course try this first on a test site to see if everything is working fine.I have found a way to hide most notices by CSS. Question is, can I keep it that way, or will there be any important notices not showing up later when the user is interacting with the form:
Well that is the thing , I would have to know what is important to you. The notice that shows when a users post is in moderation might be useful so that they know the moderator has to approve their post , but that will not be in til 2.6 of bbPress. Some plugins might hook into that , and some notices might be for post flooding and maybe some users might think their is a bug on your site if they do not know why they couldn’t post.
The Topic/Forum descriptions could also be removed with some PHP using this function and you can place it in a plugin like this.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/functionality/
It should be Plugins > Edit Functions. You can place any code snippet you might see useful into this.
You can place the snippet after the plugin information.
add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_forum_description', 'ja_return_blank' ); add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_topic_description', 'ja_return_blank' ); function ja_return_blank() { return ''; }The users plugin you suggest is from 2 years ago; I would not install that. I am told again and again by my hoster and main plugin providers that old plugins are one of the greatest vulnerabilities.
It should be fine , it is a fairly small plugin and very well coded.
You can see the plugins main code functionality in the link below. There is also an empty languages folder and a readme.txt file also in the plugin.
https://gist.github.com/jaredatch/3868274
And then I had to turn off the buttons for html because they are badly formatted, barely legible in white text on light-grey background.
You can fix that with some CSS too. Here is a simple black background to fix it.
#bbpress-forums #qt_bbp_reply_content_toolbar input, #bbpress-forums #qt_bbp_topic_content_toolbar input { background-color: #000; }I also would like to offer my clients a possibility to create a profile page with some background on themselves and the business project they are working on.
There is a bunch of plugins that add custom fields like BuddyPress some premium plugins add social features too , just like BuddyPress. The thing I am guessing you want is to highlight it on the Home of the users profile page with the forum role and user stats. This would require some PHP coding to achieve. By default the user can add a description and it would show up on the front-end , nothing too crazy.
How do I eliminate:
Notices from “This forum is empty.” and “Oh bother! No topics were found here!” That’s obvious when I open a new forum. I would post welcomes if that would solve the problem. But I have seen that this replaces the notices with even longer info that probably nobody wants to read.
You can create a topic. A super sticky topic should show above all forums if you want to have a welcome topic or a general rules topic, if that is what you want. Creating a topic in a forum should remove that notice.
What wouldn’t they want to read? Please explain more on this. Is it the Topic/Forum descriptions??
“Maximum Length: 80″ for the title – People will notice.
Well yeah that is the point so that they know the max characters to use in a topic, you can remove it but it would require a template edit.
Do you know how to use FTP , use a file editor like notpad++ , and possibly create a child theme?? I can what file to edit as long as you put the file in your child theme in a folder called bbpress.
Further notices like “Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML content.” makes people probably think: When do I get to the posting form?
Only Keymasters/Admins can see this notice. Regular participants cannot post unrestricted html content for security reasons. This is another notice that would require a template edit to remove the specific notice?? I can show you some CSS to remove all notices but you might find them handy. Do you want to remove all the notices?
Topic status: … closed. In an open discussion, who decides when a topic is closed?
Keymasters and Moderators should only close topics.
Is there any plugin with which I can deactivate this?
No.
How can I block these pages from being publicly viewed? The forums and the participants profiles shall all be private.
You can use this plugin , but it is best without BuddyPress.
