Hmmm, well, as passwords is a WordPress issue (bbPress is just using the WordPress environment in this case), I would propose that you post your question on the WordPress forums and I don’t see where to start.

If you get an answer that solved your issue, please post it back here.

Thanks, Pascal.

[Pascal Casier]

Hmmm, never tried. They only thing I found is this: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/will-you-add-these-emoticons-to-comments-in-the-future?replies=9

For the forum list in your sidebar, check the widget: https://codex.bbpress.org/features/widgets/

To edit the ‘index forum page’, create a standard WordPress page and change the slug to ‘forums’. This new page will then be used in stead of the standard list. You can then of course use the [bbp-forum-index] shortcode to display the list of forums.

As bbPress is using WordPress below, it supports the basic ones.
When I type :-) or :-P, it automatically converts them to 🙂 or 😛

So if you have set that option, it comes automatically.

I need basic. I have activated it in the WordPress, but how can I insert into my bbpress form?

[Pascal Casier]

As said, the basic ones are already in WordPress (Dashboard: Settings > Writing > Formatting).

If you want more, but no full plugin, check the code of the above plugins to see how they did it.

Hi,

If you want custom smilies or stickers, then check for plugins like ‘wp-Monalisa’ or ‘Font Emoticons’, however bbPress can use WordPress’s supplied smilies, see https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Smilies and https://codex.wordpress.org/Emoji

I am having the same issue.
(https://wordpress.org/support/topic/feature-request-responsive-design?replies=1)

Here’s what I posted (edited):
Would be so great if bb style pack would support Responsive Design. When I browse my Forums on iPhone (portrait and landscape), the headers: ForumTopicsPostsFreshness (they all overlap horizontaly) making these unreadable and useless.

I have the feeling that using TABLES instead of DIVs and or UL, LI, in this case, would be very helpfull.

Using TABLES (th, tr, td) could play nice with a plugin like FooTables (Responsive Tables).

Kind Regards,

[stewmills]

I temporarily solved my problem by installing this widget, as I just got FTP access today and have not attempted to follow other options via creating a bbPress.php page, etc.

Here’s the plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-login-register-links-on-forum-topic-pages/

You can edit it and configure 4 different places that it shows up, but it’s not in the plugin options, you have to “edit” the plugin and you’ll see the code that designates what shows up where, such as this:
add_action(‘bbp_template_before_pagination_loop’,’bbpressLoginRegisterLinksOnForumPage’);

[Pascal Casier]

If you have a standard bbPress installation, then passwords are handled by WordPress.
In most cases there is a (security) plugin that blocks something, so try deactivating other plugins.

Do you get the email back after the request for password reset ?
How far do you get after clicking on the reset password link ?

Hi everyone, this work for me

https://wordpress.org/plugins/asyncronous-bbpress-subscriptions/

[Robin W]

bbpress doesn’t have theme’s – it uses your sites theme, but sometimes integration is not great.

Unfortunately your link produces a certificate error (The security certificate presented by this website was issued for a different website’s address.) on the https side, so I didn’t visit.

If it is just styling rather than function try my plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
Otherwise give us a valid link, and I’ll take a quick look

Hi,
That seems like a pure WordPress question, not really for bbPress.
But have a look at this: http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/15304/how-to-change-the-default-registration-email-plugin-and-or-non-plugin

Pascal.

[stewmills]

Facts:
– WordPress 4.2.2
– bbPress 2.5.8
– Theme – Karma 3.0.3

How do I change who gets notified when there is a new user registration request? The default email address that is in my WP profile is not necessarily who I want to get the new user requests as the persons managing the forum are separate from those managing the general site, etc.

Thanks

I added the custom capabilities to my functions.php in the child-theme. When I go to Users, in the back-end of WordPress, there are warning texts like, Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, function ‘add_new_roles’ not found or invalid function name in C:\xampp\htdocs\mnddb_nieuw\wp-includes\plugin.php on line 235.

What did I do wrong?

My code in the function.php looks like:

<?php
// Exit if accessed directly
if ( !defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) exit;

// BEGIN ENQUEUE PARENT ACTION
// AUTO GENERATED - Do not modify or remove comment markers above or below:

        
if ( !function_exists( 'chld_thm_cfg_parent_css' ) ):
    function chld_thm_cfg_parent_css() {
        wp_enqueue_style( 'chld_thm_cfg_parent', trailingslashit( get_template_directory_uri() ) . 'style.css' );
    }
endif;
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'chld_thm_cfg_parent_css' );

// END ENQUEUE PARENT ACTION

// Nieuwe forumrolnaam toevoegen
function add_custum_role($bbp_roles){
	$bbp_roles['bbp_global_moderator'] = array(
		'name' => 'Globale moderator',
		'capabilities' => custom_capabilities( 'bbp_global_moderator' )
	);
	return $bbp_roles;
}

// Nieuwe forumregels toevoegen
add_filter('bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_new_roles', 1);

function add_role_caps_filter($caps, $role) {
	// Only filter for roles we are interested in!
	if ($role == 'bbp_global_moderator')
		$caps = custom_capabilities($role);
	
	return $caps;
}

add_filter('bbp_get_caps_for_role', 'add_role_caps_filter', 10, 2);

function custom_capabilities($role) {
	switch($role) {
		// Capabilities for 'global_moderator' role
		case 'bbp_global_moderator';
			return array(
				// Primary caps
				'spectate'				=> true,
				'participate'			=> true,
				'moderator'				=> false,

}

the answer is probably. although i would say i am not going to let the last 3 weeks go to waste because of a url rewriting issue.

I am happy to put in $200 to sponsor this fix. anyone else willing to add something to this and make a bugfix bounty style approach. it might help to kickoff the bbpress development again.

Basically i want to have the ability to create the forum url permalink structure and the thread permalink structure. as per this ticket, https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2258

I dont care where it goes although within the tools > forums would be fine. or under settings permalinks a forum tab there to actually group similar tools in a sensible way.

If you want to do this development please let me know

Plugin is required also and must not be htaccess rewrites. As i use nginx not apache htaccess style fixes are not an option which suits everyone.

[Stephen Edgar]

You can also use bbp_create_initial_content() with some bbp_parse_args() to generate your content, bbPress uses this to crate some sample/initial content when installing on multisite installs.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/2.5/includes/core/update.php#L174

[Robin W]

no, core functions in bbpress cannot be put in other folders.

Generally it is not recommended that you change bbpress itself. Rather almost all bbpress functionality can be filtered, so that the plugin remains complete and changes are put in your theme’s functions file using wordpress filering capability.

What changes did you make? If small, let me know which lines in which file, and post the changes here, and I’ll try to help you with what you should put in your functions file.

You should also make those changes (and the template files you copied ) in a child theme, so that theme updates donlt overwrite these

Hi all,
I have a hierarchical forums (> 20) and I use bbp_insert_topic functionality to create topics programmatically. Everything is fine so long as we rely only using bbpress. But suppose I want to create a post and want a corresponding topic following the same hierarchy and tags, how can I do that ?

That is, how can I merge something like this:

WordPress <—–> bbpress

• Topics <—–> Posts
• Categories <—–> Forum Categories
• Tags <—–> Topic Tags

All this is because I wish to avoid duplications of category names and tags across the some posts and topics that I intend to create.

I know how to create a post with a given parent id, using wp_insert_post,
Can I set the post id as a child to a Forum Category ? Am I mixing apples and oranges , can it be done ? What should be a right approach ?

[maaartin2]

Thank you very much for your advices.
This really change root forum page for my own page, but I thought if is possible simply change style from archive for example to post or page. I want to only change wordpress style format but forum content preserve. I use this theme https://www.designwall.com/wordpress/themes/wallpress/ and this theme has archive divided to some parts and forum is bigger than one archive part, therefore I need change style to classic post or page.

[Pluew]

bbPress 2.5.8

Wordpress 4.4.2

Where can my users register for my bbpress forum?

Thank you

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,
I suppose you mean that you want to change the default page that you get when going on /forums ?
If so, just create a page in WordPress and change the slug to ‘forums’, then put anything you want in that page.

The standard page shown when going on /forums is content-archive-forum.php.

You can customize all templates if you want, just read some pages of the bbPress Codex: https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/

Pascal.

[maaartin2]

Hi,
I’m beginner in creating wordpress website. Is possible change type root forums page from post-type-archive to for example single-post or basic page? I have template where is archive divided to some parts and archive post with forum has very small width.
Thanks for all replies.

[Robin W]

The problem is that wordpress was designed to work with templates that were different for each type eg template for page with sidebar, another template for page without sidebar.

The trouble is that theme authors are getting too clever ,and nowadays write a single big page template that bbpress cannot easily react with.

So your theme displays one template for the main page, but then bbpress can’t work with it for the other sub pages, as it doesn’t know how the theme is using the template.

Ok, so that’s the explanation, but probably doesn’t help you at all.

If you know some wp stuff then this might help
