Hello!
BbPress 2.5.14 WordPress 4.9.4
I define the language of the user’s browser in the php template.
And I want to change the bbpress (.mo) translation languages depending on the browser language.
How can i do this?
possible, depends what you mean by ‘looks like’ – every detail?
try
bbp style pack
to get the style
I am struggling to implement a plugin / functionality to catch the likes and replies from a source user (giving the like/reply) and notify the destination user (the author of the post) in bbpress, the forum plugin from wordpress.
Are you aware of existing projects implementing this functionality in bbpress (even partially) ?
Which mechanisms / plugins are better to use to trigger actions in the frontend in this case? On the other hand, is it a better approach to put triggers on the database column?
I am more analyzing the database…it has good information, such as user id of the source user, post id. I am talking about the wp_posts table. However, the parent_post is the first post of the topic, so it is not the ierarhical parent post. I need somehow to identify the nested replies from the database, but I dont find the needed information there…
Thank you for your suggestions !
Hello,
i would like to know how to make my homepage as a forum. i mean when the user join my website he will directly see the forums. i dont want him to click the forum tab in menu and then join http://www.website.com/forum
like this website : https://www.utehub.com/
wordpres version : wordpress 4.9.4 , twent fifteen
bbpress version : 2.5.14
The site use wordpress.org and the theme is OceanWP. So now anybody can prove to use the bbpress plugin and see the screen that I was posted.
Not sure you can, and since users are allocated wordpress ID’s during import, which then link to the topics and replies, then a 2 stage import would not know which author to apply to which topic.
my style pack plugin has a latest activity widget that lets you display the above
bbp style pack
You can use Yoast plugin to display breadcrumb !
wp-dashboard –> Yoast –> search appearance –> breadcrumbs and then aticate it.
later on you will have to add a code to header.php
Full tutorial from here. if you have any question please don’t hesitate to ask me.
Thank you @robin-w! So the function I linked to activated the feature, and then I was able to copy the content-single-topic-lead.php into a bbpress folder in my theme, and edit it a bit like in your link. Feeling good about it.
I do have a question though, if anyone can help me figure this out (i’m new to php and am not familiar with the syntax). In the file https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/buddypress.org/public_html/wp-content/themes/bb-base/bbpress/loop-single-topic.php , on line 73, what this mean:
`<?php bbp_show_lead_topic() ? bbp_topic_reply_count() : bbp_topic_post_count(); ?>’
That’s one of the few places I see the function called at all in the templates they edited. Still digging and learning. Thanks for any help or ideas.
Same question here. I am not a WordPress engineer. Will discuss this info with my friend, who is.
Thanks, Marten

Hello!
We are looking to modify BBpress meaning:
– remove the possibility for anonymous users posting answers to questions.
– remove BBpress notices like ”You can publish HTML content” or ”You can use BBCodes to format your content”.
– remove the website field request when asking a question, along subject type and question status.
– add a name for the description field regarding the title of the subject.
– customize the right sidebar to include: add a question, search and categories of the forum.
We are using bbpress 2.5.14 and wordpress 4.7.9. Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you!

From topic subscriptions I’m getting bounced email messages that look like this:
———- Forwarded message ———-
From: [name-of-site] <noreply@[name-of-site].org>
To: noreply@[name-of-site].org
Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2018 19:14:35 +0000
Subject: …
You are receiving this email because you subscribed to a forum topic.
Login and visit the topic to unsubscribe from these emails.
They bounce, obviously, because they have the same From and To addresses. There is no user who has this address, obviously. The mail is being generated by PHP–that is, I’m not using any additional plugin to send mail.
Any ideas on what might be causing this, and how it might be resolved?
I’m sorry that I can’t link to the site, but it is an intranet, so not publicly available.
Thanks. Something that truly gave a clean interface (like gutenberg or medium.com as mentioned) would be ideal. But if there are not currently options for that for the bbpress text editor, are there options to improve the editor from the default?
For example, to make it comparable to the text editor for ‘Discourse’ forum sites? (like https://discuss.reactjs.org/ or https://discuss.atom.io/).
I have heard there may be a way to turn on the tinyMCE toolbar in bbpress, which is an improvement.
However, I’m new to wordpress, but that seems to normally go along with a text editor that gives the writer two less than ideal options: a (i) “visual” option with the tinyMCE (the problem being it strips away a lot of formatting–for example removing tabs if you paste code in) or (ii) the basic “text” option, which is not great for a general audience bc it requires the writer deal with stuff like tags and html-jargon. Its also confusing to give users two different options that seem to do the same thing but in slightly different ways.
So, if a Gutenberg-like experience is too much to ask right now, is there anything around that can give users the straightforward toolbar experience of the “Discourse” text editor?
the wordpress forums run on bbpress, for instance
https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/
this one has 39,000 pages of 15 topics per page, so maybe give it a speed test !
No reason why you shouldn’t just run a forum on a site – up to you
Hi There.
I am brand new to bbpress. I am starting a site that has functionality similar to a question/answer site (like stackoverflow). Is bbpress still the best option for that?
Details: It seems like bbpress is a great plugin, but I have concerns because:
(i) it looks like some people have had issues with bbpress’s speed as the bbpress-created forum grows, and
(ii) bbpress generally seems meant for inserting a forum onto a wordpress site as just one feature, not as the entire site itself. For example, bbpress.org (this site) has a number of different types of pages, and the forum is just one type. What if, instead, the whole site was the forum? Like on stackoverflow, where the entire site is geared toward the question/answer forum. In that case, the forum might be getting more traffic and forum performance would be more important, because it represents the entire site experience.
Is bbpress the best choice for creating this type of question/answer site, or should performance concerns lead me elsewhere? The main alternative I see is to build the site not based on a forum plugin, but based on other more targeted plugins geared toward allowing users to create posts, and then linking those posts together in a forum-like way.
Any info on this is much appreciated.
ok, if I understand the issue this should fix
install and activate
bbp style pack
then go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>breadcrumbs
and you will see options to specify where the home and forum root breadcrumbs go to
ok, I’ve also added breadcrumb navigation to my style pack plugin
bbp style pack
go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>breadcrumbs and you can select where the home and forum breadcrumbs take you to.
install
bbp style pack
and go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>topic/reply form item 9
and you can select which to show
Can’t say I’d ever looked for them
what do you want to use them for, and would this help

Hello,
on the register page, the “Complete Registration” button is completely white.

How can I change the colour?
WordPress 4.9.4, Theme Little Sparkle, bbpress 2.5.14
I have installed a plugin called “MENU SWAPPER”. This allows for each page/post on the site to choose any menu that has been created to be displayed on that page/post.
Originally, the functionality of this plugin did not include ANY of the forum pages. I figured out what to add to the menu swapper code to get the individual forums and the topics to have the functionality to swap menus. See the code below, I added “forum” and “topic” to make that happen.
function mswp_add_swap_meta_box() {
$post_types = array(
‘post’,
‘page’,
‘forum’,
‘topic’
);
The only pages on the site where there is no MENU SWAPPER functionality are the forums archive page here: https://scoutfantasysports.com/forums/
I am assuming this is because there isn’t really a “PAGE” in wordpress for this.
The menu on that page needs to be the same as on the individual forum pages here: https://scoutfantasysports.com/forum/fantasy-talk/
I need to know how to make this happen because it looks like I will need to edit a bbPress plugin file to do it.
Thanks.
