I threw all of my bbpress.css code into the bbpress.min.css file and it all became included at that point. Not sure I like that but at least it works…

Yes it is… directly after the update the entire website changed becuase it was no longer referencing the bbpress.css file in my child theme…

I have added to a previous thread that has some of what you’re looking for but I have not been able to get it to work 100% yet… maybe you’ll have better success?

Search by user

Has anyone found a good solution for this?

[@sbmar Participant 7 years, 1 month ago]

I think I almost have this working on my site but I cannot get the form value for some reason:

$username = $_GET['bbp_search_by_user'];

If I type the value into the URL (/?bbp_search_by_user=someuser), then it works 100%… should be something silly, right?

I also added a member drop-down so when someone is searching they can choose from a listing of members that have already created at least one reply:

global $wpdb;

$sql = "SELECT DISTINCT
$wpdb->posts.post_author as id,
$wpdb->users.display_name as name
FROM
$wpdb->posts
INNER JOIN $wpdb->users ON $wpdb->posts.post_author = $wpdb->users.ID
WHERE
$wpdb->posts.post_type = 'reply' AND $wpdb->users.display_name <> ''
ORDER BY
$wpdb->users.display_name ASC";

$result = $wpdb->get_results($sql, OBJECT);
			
echo "<select name=\"bbp_search_by_user\">";
echo "<option value='ALL'>All Users</option>";
echo "<option value='ALL'></option>";
foreach ($result as $key => $value) {			  
   echo "<option value='" . $value->id . "'>" . $value->name . "</option>";
}
echo "</select>";

Anyone know how to get the $_GET[‘bbp_search_by_user’]; to work?

Here’s the code in my functions.php:

/* ADD SEARCH BY USER FUNCTION */

add_filter ( 'bbp_before_has_search_results_parse_args', 'ha_custom_search_by_username' );
 
function ha_custom_search_by_username() {
	//Get username from input on search page
	$username = $_GET['bbp_search_by_user'];

	$default_post_type = array( bbp_get_forum_post_type(), bbp_get_topic_post_type(), bbp_get_reply_post_type() );
	//check if empty
	if(!empty($username) && $username != "ALL"){
		//Make ID from username
		$user = get_user_by('slug', $username);
		$user_id = $user->ID;
	$args['author'] = $user_id;	
	}
	$args['post_type'] = $default_post_type;
	$args['orderby'] = 'date';
	$args['posts_per_page'] = '5';
	$args['ignore_sticky_posts'] = 'true';
	$args['order'] = 'DESC';

	return $args;
}
