Enable Visual Editor

“In some cases, text pasted into the visual editor will bring along unwanted styles and HTML markup. You can use another function to force pasted text to be cleaned up. ”

I added the function, but it does not work. See

Do I need some plugin for TinyMCE

[jaykaybee]

I’m new to wordpress and bbPress. I found a post that described the problem I am having, but a “keymaster” closed the thread… I don’t see how to solve this problem.

The original thread was:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/breadcrumb-and-forum-index-issues/

Here is my restatement of the issue:

I am new to WordPress and BBpress, using Astra theme. I have read some forum topics on the problem I am having, but some are now closed and did not provide answers in remedial enough fashion! (I’m not a coder.)
Here is how I am experiencing the problem, you can follow along on the links below (I used BBP stylepack to remove the “home” link)
1. I navigate to https://devgo.jeffbelkora.com/forums/. This presents a blank page.
2. As suggested in a prior forum here, I set up a WordPress page called forums with a bbpress shortcode [bbp-forum-index]. Still, the URL /forums/ presents a blank page.
3. Bizarrely (to me), I can see this forum index only if I change the URL to Forums/ with a capital F. Huh? Now this page displays a list of forums, namely one I created called “Resource Messages”. Very confused as to how the uppercase F came to display the right index. I stumbled on that accidentally.
4. I click on “Resource Messages” This takes me to /forums/forum/resource-messages/. The URL now has a lowercase f in forums. This will be a problem in a minute!
5. Now I click on “Resource Message 2” link and I’m taken to /forums/topic/20181219-resource-message-2/. Incidentally, I am working on an entire project to strip down the forum into a one-way bulletin board… but this post is just about the forum breadcrumbs.
6. Now the problem arises where I click on the breadcrumb for forums, whose link is /forums/. As seen in item 1, this presents a blank page.
Now, other posters pointed to BBP StylePack “breadcrumbs” setting. And I have tried to insert my forum page (with the shortcode [bbp-forum-index]) URL (/forums/) into their “override” box. But instead of showing the forum index, it shows a blank page.
Help! I am so confused. I would really appreciate any tips or links to further resources, in very remedial terms.

I have the latest WordPress (5.0.2) and latest BBPress. I enabled the visual editor with the bbPress tweak plugin and then every time I tried to edit a reply it will not let me submit it again. The page would just like reload and my text was gone. No error in the console but saw thing flashed there.

But if I login, logout, return to bbPress and uses the text editor and kept the visual editor in the back, everything worked ok. So I disabled it and since then no more bugs.

Is there other WYSIWYG editor that I can use? Is there something I can do to make it work correctly?

[jaykaybee]

I am trying to configure bbpress for one way announcements to an audience of members in my website. Meaning I as the author am posting topics in chronological order, with no possibility of replies. So not a normal forum.

This has meant removing a lot of extraneous information normally displayed: I don’t need or want author, freshness, voices, etc.

I am new to WordPress, BBpress, and I am not a coder. I have proceeded, through trial and error, to “inspect” the pages and use custom CSS to hide objects that I don’t want (display: none !important), and to look at the php files such as content-single-topic-lead.php and remove any references to author (e.g. bbp-topic-author).

Without understanding much of what I’m doing, I’m getting very close to achieving the intended effect. Now I’m stuck because when someone clicks in Resource Messages (the “forum” name) on an actual topic, they see an indented display of content, because the author column (which normally displays author name and avatar etc, which I hid using CSS display: none !important) is still present (if empty).

Please see https://devgo.jeffbelkora.com/square/topic/20181219-resource-message-2/

So my questions are:
1. Can anyone instruct me on how to remove that first author/avatar column?
2. How to resize column 2, or otherwise adapt it so each topic’s content displays as a left-justified text?

Please be very remedial in any tips you can give me. I have created a “bbpress” subfolder inside my “astra” child theme via “files” in my cpanel. I am deleting code in php files there adding custom css inside the astra child theme “customizer”.

If you are going to suggest changing files, could you please specify how I need to place them in my child theme to make this futureproof to updates etc.?

Thank you!

I should say that I am not the plugin author, just an experienced user.

bbpress just uses wordpress custom posts, so in most cases having the forums within the main site would be no problem. Of course I don’t know your site, so cannot recommend, but most sites just have it within. If the main site is down, chances are that most will not access the forums directly, but rather via the main site, so the forums would ‘appear’ to be down as well.

It is an option to uncheck the box, it is not a recommendation (the box I quoted in settings recommends that you do display the prefix, but I think this is just for clarity in the url).

unticking the box would achieve https://forums.X.com/ and putting the forums in your main site would achieve https://X.com/forums/

How does it differs from my existing visual editor:

1. Sanaristikot

that needs TinyMCE installed.

[Robin W]

visual editor available on my plugin

bbp style pack

[tapiohuuhaa]

Hi

Why bbPress could use visual editor without chaning the function.php of themes.

When thems needs to be updated, it would need every time alter that function.

In my mind bbPress should support better visual editor. Otherwise bbPress seems to be a little bit too much self-made solution. Not like professional XenForo, which supports visual editor without tricks.

I got it work in https://www.sanaristikkofoorumi.net/wordpress/forums/forum/sanaristikot/

but I was not happy searching how to do it.

So I work as a web developer using wordpress, however I do not use bbPress on any of my sites currently. However I am a member of a forum that I really enjoy, however it severely lacks some elements of responsive design for mobile phones. I cannot say for sure it’s something directly related to bbPress, however being that bbPress is such a large platform I have to assume there is a solution.

The problem:

The problem is related to multiple quotes inside of a post. When a person quotes a reply that was also quoting a previous reply we get multple “quote” section before the new content. The result on a mobile phone is that the quotes get squished into single character per line so it looks

l
i
k
e

t
h
i
s

Is there a solution to making the previous quotes either hidden in a spoiler tag by default or simply show only the 1 quote per post on mobile?

Here is a screenshot of what I’m talking about: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DbJjmuCinBhP1yhprZXcNC_ZMz4gj-cT

P.S. I am not a developer on this website, but I thought I’d present a solution to the owner to help him out 🙂

P.P.S. I noticed he uses elementor as well, so not sure if that has any relation.

How to Add Nofollow Link in WordPress and Why

[mrwassen]

Hi guys,

I am fairly new to the bbpress world. The issue I am having is that a user subscribed to a forum receives an email notification when a new topic is posted, but NOT when somebody replies to a topic.

I setup a brand new site with only bbPress and buddypress and replicated the issue there. My versions are:

Wordpress: 5.0 (also an issue on v. 4.9.8 in the live site)
Buddypress: 4.1.0
bbPress: 2.5.14
Theme: Twenty Nineteen v. 1.0 (bundled)

I am unable to find any settings other than “Allow users to subscribe to forums and topics” in the Forum Settings which is ticked.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Dennis

I have given an honest effort searching to find out which plugins or modifications are needed.. not much luck finding these answers.

What bbpress addon is the wordpress support forum using to put the little check mark on a resolved topic? I did find a support plugin, but its not the right one.

And how is the styling accomplished in the forums there (and here) where you see the “Started by: <username> in: <highlighted forum name>”. I am also trying to get the Freshness column left aligned as opposed to centered in its column.

When i create new topic it shows normally no issues!!
But i had a huge data that needed to be imported on the same site. I used WP All Import Plugin for the import and I imported the data into topics… Actually I only require the topics section so there is forum I want to show… I managed the look. But after the import finished. I cant see the list of topics that meant to be seen on my homepage. Though I see the topics in the sidebar under related topics. I used shortcode [bbp-topic-index] to show the topic on my homepage.
I can also see the topic in my wordpress topics section…
So, I decided to take a look in my database. I saw that earlier when i created topics it was stored in wp_posts table but now after import all that new data is in wp_pmxi_ tables and topics were in wp_pmxi_topics table. I don’t know if that supposed to be but I cant solve this issue… I even imported data again in posts which then went to wp_posts table in database but ofcourse wordpress was taking that as posts not bbpress topics…
Can please someone help me out?

Hello. WP version 5.0 BB Press Version 2.5.14

I have a quick question. I have searched and found no answer thus far. It involves creating categories and forums under them categories and then topics showing up in categories that they don’t belong in.

Example:

Category Example 1:
Forum Example 1
Forum Example 3

Category Example 2:
Forum Example 2:

Now say I post a topic in Forum Example 2 under the category Example 2. When I go to read any topics in category example 1 forums 1 or 3, I see every single post made in category 2. Now that is kind of counter productive is it not? I do not see the need to create categories and forums if all posts are going to show up no matter where I look anyhow.

I have never met a forum system that does this. I helped develop a piece of software based on a forum with close to a million downloads before we called it quits so I am a shade on the forum familiar side but this boggles my mind. I am rather new to WordPress and BBPress so I am more than sure it is my missing a setting or something?

I appreciate all the hard work that has gone into this. I am having a good time with it thus far. My sincerest apologies if this has been covered and beat to death already.

[Robin W]

no.

The simplest way is to use this plugin

Yes, there is.

I’ve updated the page now. Here’s the link if you need it:
