I’m using the Vikinger theme for my website myself as it works well for a gaming community related website as it has ranks, badges, quests etc..and fun missions for other users to complete. It’s a shame that the themes doesn’t have a custom made “shoutbox or chatbox” at the default-standard chatbox plugins that comes with a WordPress website are crap, slow and outdated.

Apart from that I’d give that theme a 10/10 for sure.

I was wondering if there was a plugin out there where I can add it to my website so I can approve the users avatars when they upload their avatar[s]? Any plugins out there that works with WordPress at all?

I did both debug mode within WordPress as well as the Site Health and Troubleshooting.

In Site Health and Troubleshooting I did just bbpress with the default wordpress theme – seems to be an issue in both cases.

I tried to comment out everything inbetween the before/after in the profile page and had the same result.

This had been working fine – it is something recent that caused it.

With troubleshooting mode you mean debug mode? https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/debugging-in-wordpress/

That would be a good way to start yes, if you have a local or test setup in which you can reproduce the exact same error, I would try turning plugins off one by one there, to see if it is being caused by any of them.

Errors like these can have many causes but the template for this particular page is at
/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-profile.php

Hey 👋 
Thank you @Robin-W,
In the meantime I got to know the WP-Cli-Cli package specific to WordPress, which does not work either (I opened an issue visible here).

To locate the context, I use WooCommerce Subscription plugin and I needed that when a subscription is canceled, access to the bbPress forum is blocked.

I leave here the snippet that I made and that does the job:

add_action('woocommerce_subscription_status_cancelled', 'block_forum_user_after_subscription_cancellation_s', 10, 1);
function block_forum_user_after_subscription_cancellation_s($subscription)
{
    $user_id = $subscription->get_user_id();
    $new_role = 'bbp_blocked';
    bbp_set_user_role($user_id, $new_role);
}

(I also have a webhook version with the WordPress Rest API for remote use, if necessary contact me)

[Ludovic S. Clain]

Hi there 👋 

Thanks to the details of @stanis I am understanding why when I use WP-Cli with the line:
wp user set-role <User id> bbp_blocked

It blows up the existing role of the User on WordPress (in my case it was “customer” which becomes ” – no role for this site -“)

But it’s still unclear for me. How to modify the role of an User on BBPPRESS without touching its WordPress role?

Because the opposite is also true, if I do :
wp user set-role <User ID> customer

This time it is the role of the User on the forum that jumps and becomes “-No Role for these forums-”

PS: I also tried
wp user update <User ID> --role=customer --bbp-forums-role=bbp_blocked
And that doesn’t do the job too 🙁

Thanks for your lights!
Warm regards,
Ludovic

you can screenshot, load the images to your wordpress media, and then post here the url for the media image.

Otherwise I would need a link to a live example

[Robin W]

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

[Chuckie]

See:

https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6608

I notice in the standard WordPress forums (like for BSP) that they now have improved user experience.

Is this something we could add to bbPress?

[Robin W]

This is available as a premium add on for

bbPress Notify (No-Spam)

see digest tab in the plugin details.

Also this is old, but might still work

bbPress Digest

[timholland]

My users want the ability to manage the frequency of emails they receive from the forums and topics. Currently the default is one email for every topic post and many get inundated with emails. They want to be able to get a daily or weekly summary of activity, with links to specific topics they wish to read.

Is there a plug in or setting I’m missing?

Wordpress 6.1.1
bbPress 2.6.9
bbPress toolkit 1.0.12
bbPress style pack 5.2.2
BuddyPress 11.0.0

TIA

[Robin W]

Try this

add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title', 'to_archive_title_remove_prefix' );
function to_archive_title_remove_prefix( $title ) {
if ( is_post_type_archive() ) {
$title = post_type_archive_title( '', false );
}
return $title;
}

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

or use

I am new at this, please forgive me. I have installed bbPress into a WordPress site https://mississippihunter.com/forums/ . I am using the Astra theme.

How do I get rid of the word “Archives?”

I sincerely appreciate any help. Thanks, in advance.

Hello, I have the following questions. Does bbpress use the user roles of wordpress?
I would like to include a separate forum for individual events on my website, that relates only to the topic of the event. Is this possible?

I discovered the problem was created by this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/forum-permissions-bbpress/

[scottmotion]

First you could try Robin’s bbPress plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-profile-information/
Same with BuddyPress integration: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-buddypress-profile-information/

If you’re not using BuddyPress though I would highly recommend looking into it. You can enable “Extended Profile Fields” and there’s also a plugin for custom field types: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-xprofile-custom-field-types/

As far as the outbound links themselves go you might need to code/style them yourself unless your theme automatically converts links.

I saw this:

10 Best Custom Login Page Plugins for WordPress 2022

but there is no option to embed on a page on my site.

[pcwd]

<?php
if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) { // Display WordPress login form:
    $args = array(
        'redirect' => admin_url(), 
        'form_id' => 'loginform-custom',
        'label_username' => __( 'Username custom text' ),
        'label_password' => __( 'Password custom text' ),
        'label_remember' => __( 'Remember Me custom text' ),
        'label_log_in' => __( 'Log In custom text' ),
        'remember' => true
    );
    wp_login_form( $args );
} else { // If logged in:
    wp_loginout( home_url() ); // Display "Log Out" link.
    echo " | ";
    wp_register('', ''); // Display "Site Admin" link.
}
?>

I entered that code with the Code Snippets Plugin but it didn’t work 🙁

if title is unique then

get_page_by_title()

untested but something like :

function rew_find_topic_id ($title) {
	$topic = get_page_by_title($title, OBJECT, bbp_get_topic_post_type());
	if (!empty ($topic) {
		$topic_id = $topic->ID ;
		return $topic_id ;
	}
	else {
		return 'empty' ;
