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

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

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.

Theme My Login

[pcwd]

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 {

Hello – Is there a way to have the system notify the wordpress admin when replies are sent to pending? I had several sitting in there and didn’t realize it. Thanks!

[travis@digiprimedesigns.net]

I have searched these forums and for the life of me can not find exactly what I am aiming for.

Basically I run a gaming community. For the most part, everyone uses discord, and the new forum system discord currently has. However our website has been a beacon that has kept us getting back in touch with each other for over 25 year and im trying to not only keep it alive, but adding content.

Basically I have the WP Discord plugin. I want to have BBPress allow the user to add their specific game names (battle net, steam, EA, Activision IDs) to their website / forum profile. I downloaded and installed the Advanced custom field plugin via wordpress, but it doesm’t seem to work with BBpress. If I make a new page or post I can add the fields, but I am looking more in terms of the wordpress user adding them upon registering on the site, then showing in the BBpress profile.

I used to modify SMF years ago and played around a lot with different content management forum software, but am fairly new to wordpress itself, and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE how bbpress feels familiar to me. I feel like this is something super simple and easy to accomplish and im just looking in the wrong place.

On our old SMF forum, I literally had it setup in a URL format to where you would put your Steam username, but then on your profile it would be a clickable link to your steam page. It was super easy and literally required modifying the code 2 or 3 lines to fix once installing a basic plugin for SMF. I feel like this should be easier.

Can someone please point me in the right direction? Also, thank you all for what you do!

Hi and sorry if I’m not very experienced.
I put bbpress inside a new wordpress site and I used the “Astra” theme.
I defined a page called “Home Page” and inserted an AdRotate banner inside it and put the prefix “[bbp-forum-index]“.
The result is this

https://forum.redhotcyber.com/error/1.png

I just can’t figure out why clicking on any forum, topic or other, the banner is no longer seen, as if it were working on a theme page that I don’t have control over…

https://forum.redhotcyber.com/error/2.png

I don’t know how to get out of it, can you help me?
Thank you very much

Hello everybody.
I am using WordPress 6.1.1 with Twenty Twelve 3.8 theme to set up bbPress 2.6.9. The question is – how to disable theme Sidebar on bbPress pages only (forums, forum, topic etc.), but leave it visible on the rest pages of the site?
Thank you very much in advance for answering.

[Robin W]

This is one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.

install

bbp style pack

once activated, navigate to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.

In that tab, select

Enable Theme Support

and save

The forums should then display

Hi

I would like to customize the labels on the login page at
bbpress login, password fields and the button text.

I see some related PHP code at https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Login_Form#Make_a_Custom_Login_Page

Could you please suggest how to add that code to my website? Thank you so much!

[Robin W]

you probably need to unschedule and reschedule it.

add this to see what it is doing

WP Crontrol

[Robin W]

I have copied it and incorporated it into

bbp style pack

once activated go to
