Sorry – I can’t immediately see a better way.

I’m not a bbpress author, but to get code changed you’ll need to post in trac

Hello,

Is there a shortcode or a function that can retrieves all of subscribed forums,forums that you have replied? In short to get all forum/topics that you or a user have involvement in a single page.

We are using.
bbpress Version 2.5.14
WordPress 4.9.4
Custom made theme.

[Robin W]

my style pack plugin lets you amend breadcrumbs, including not showing the home breadcrumb.

bbp style pack

after activation go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>breadcrumbs

[Robin W]

this isn’t a bbpress thing – wordpress does this for comments, and bbpress just hooks to that.

A quick google found this which shows you how to change the files.

sorry – writing a specific solution for you is beyond free help.

Proposed roadmap: Tools for GDPR compliance

[sebaurel]

Hello,

I have a notification problem from bbpress to buddypress.
When a user responds to a topic, the author receives an empty notification!

How can I delete or fix it?

Wordpress 4.9.4
bbPress 2.5.14
BuddyPress 2.9.3

Other plugins used:
BuddyPress Member Reviews
GEO my WP
MediaPress

[Mal]

When I create in /wp-content/themes/my-theme/bbpress/loop-topics.php then I can overwrite the default BBPress template this way.

But creating /wp-content/themes/my-theme/bbpress/loop-topics-[FORUM_ID_HERE].php doesn’t use this template for that category ID which seems to be against https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/ and https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/template-hierarchy-in-detail/

Is there a way to create a separate page template per forum ID without using conditional tags in loop-topics.php?

[Stephen Edgar]

Slack conversations can be hard to follow, anyways here’s a chat recap:
• https://make.wordpress.org/core/2018/02/16/gdpr-compliance-chat-recap-february-14th/

Thanks for this @casiepa 🙂

p.s. I’d also like to echo what Robin said, please keep the conversation about the GDPR and not make it personal, we all have differing opinions, and many of us are coming to this from different angles, for example I’m in Australia, we’ve got no legal privacy protections (this isn’t quite true, but it seems like it most of the time) but I’m more than happy to try to understand what the GDPR entails and how we can make bbPress GDPR compliant 🙂

[Robin W]

combination of your theme and bbpress, sorry but nothing that bbpress can do directly about this, works fine on all default wordpress themes.

you can of course alter it with css for your theme.

[Robin W]

I haven’t used this one for a while, but probably still works

bbPress Pencil Unread

or this one

bbPress – Mark as Read

[Robin W]

I’ve done some more digging…

Wordpress uses an embed function to do this, which my simple css changes won’t alter

There are 3 ways to overcome this, as pre this blog

https://kinsta.com/knowledgebase/disable-embeds-wordpress/

The first is a plugin, but that is an old one.

I tested

Disable Embeds

and this worked fine.

@Robin W,

Hi, as previously discussed the plugin “bbpress topics for posts” (which has been possibly abandoned by the author) enables a user to migrate/import all existing WordPress posts into bbpress forum and also allow them to show under individual posts, so I was wondering is there a possibility that bbpress could simply introduce all those specific options and features which the above plugin inserts in the bbpress settings by default??

If this can be introduced in the bbpress settings by default would mean we wouldn’t have to depend on any external plugin, and be extremely handy for all those users who get large amounts on WordPress comments and are interested to convert them into forum replies.

[markleeuw]

Hey Guys,

Is it possible to remove the whiteness and wordpress logo if you copy paste a product into the forum section.?

[Robin W]

just tried it using a simulator

http://mobiletest.me/

and yes it doesn’t appear.

suggest you add it to the main menu

lots of plugins that will do this eg

Login Logout Register Menu

[walama]

My forum users login using the normal wordpress login. On a computer, this in in the upper left hand corner. On mobile devices, several users report that the login isn’t there. Any suggestions?

[Mike George]

Thanks Robin, that didn’t work but at least I can set the option manually for each new user. I’ll try deactivating other plugins to see if there’s a conflict. There’s a message on the plugin to say it hasn’t been tested with the current version of WordPress so maybe there’s an issue there. I’ll check the support forum for the toolkit.

[Robin W]

1.404 issue

The link looks good, suggest you try

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

2.

I would like to run the bbpress forums without BuddyPress, if possible. Is there a solution to this issue?

yes bbpress runs quite happily on its own – my bbpress sites run without buddypress.

3.

An engaging business community giving credit to people who take the time to submit comprehensive organizational case studies

beyond ‘support desk’ help I’m afraid – it is do-able but lots and lots of bespoke coding needed (The site is not a bbpress one) . My style pack would help in getting a nicer look

bbp style pack

[pixelnated]

No dice with bbPress 2.6-beta-2 either 🙁
No biggie – I’ll just rollback and get it done. I like where it is heading with all the additional info though

WordPress database error: [Unknown column ‘users.id’ in ‘field list’]

Starting Conversion

[Robin W]

install Pascal’s bbp toolkit

bbP Toolkit

once activated go to

dashboard>tools>bbp toolkit>subscriptions and you can select to automatically subscribe new users to forums

[Mike George]

I want to change the default so that all new users are subscribed to all forums by default. I have seen some replies to this question which say it can be set on group admin pages, but I can’t see any way on the BBPress settings to create groups, and I cant find any plugins to add the functionality. What am I doing wrong?

I’m running WordPress 4.9.4 with Twenty Seventeen Child Theme, and bbPress 2.5.14

[Martin J]

Actually…. the solution above wasn’t going to work because if breadcrumbs are enabled and someone clicks on the “Forum Home”, we lose all the effort. However, I finally found the conditional statement that works.

This is only part of my code, but you can get the idea…I originally had this:

// For Jetpack Portfolio heading
elseif (is_post_type_archive()) :
echo '<h1 id="bts-page-title">' . __( 'WordPress Themes', 'bts' ) . '</h1>';

// For bbpress forum heading
elseif (is_bbpress('forum')) :
echo '<h1 id="bts-page-title">' . __( 'Support Forum', 'bts' ) . '</h1>';

However, when I did this, it worked:

// For bbpress forum heading
elseif (is_bbpress('forum') || is_post_type_archive('forum') ) :
echo '<h1 id="bts-page-title">' . __( 'Support Forum', 'bts' ) . '</h1>';

// For Jetpack Portfolio heading
elseif (is_post_type_archive()) :
echo '<h1 id="bts-page-title">' . __( 'WordPress Themes', 'bts' ) . '</h1>';

Now what is interesting, is that if I have the bbpress conditional “after” the Jetpack portfolio one, it would not work and the bbpress heading would be “WordPress Themes”. However, I had this sudden thought that perhaps there is a priority happening here, so I moved the bbpress conditional “before” the Jetpack one, and sure enough it works. The bbpress heading is “Support Forum” and the Jetpack portfolio is “WordPress Themes”.

Something about the sequence caused an issue…what and why I do not know.

[Stephen Edgar]

@pixelnated, if you use the version here it includes a bunch of other enhancements 🙂

[Robin W]

ok, I’d talk to your hosting service – this is not normal wordpress behaviour

[Robin W]

install

bbp style pack

Once activated, go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum templates and select Alternate Forum template 1

This will then display as you wish

[Robin W]

From @matevoun

Then, now :

1/ I think this is because i’ve installed bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab plugin, but i need this for uploading new media… 🙁

2/ Yes, tell me what can i do… 🙂

3/ Done ! Thank you ! I’ve installed your plugin. 😉

4/ I think this is a too little for texte + avatar.

How can i do now ?

Hope to read you soon…

1. As a test deactivate that plugin and see if it works without. If so re-enable and contact that plugins author

2. for the forum list

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

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

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this

so change line 68
<span class="bbp-topic-freshness-author"><?php bbp_author_link( array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_forum_last_active_id(), 'size' => 14 ) ); ?></span>

amend 14 to whatever size you want

3. glad you like it

4. without knowing exactly what you want, I cannot suggest css changes – I suspect we will not fix this one
