Thanks for the links 🙂 It’s not a necessary feature, but agree would be neat. I think one issue is that most scripts and functions are for when you have TinyMCE as the deafault WordPress editor, but this is inside bbPress.

I’ll definitely let you know if I find a working solution.

Not even looked at it, but does this plugin have any answers?

Advanced TinyMCE Configuration

[rinh]

Hi
First, thanks for all the help so far with functions and filters! The forum is done, but there is one feature I missed from the old forum and that’s having the editor autoresize with the content. I think this may be out of scope for this plugin, but perhaps someone knows something.

I looked around and it seems WordPress TinyMCE have this feature, but it’s not enabled. I did some terrible attempt (you’re allowed to laugh) to add it. Not only did it break my toolbar 1, but it didn’t work either

function bbp_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
	
    $args['quicktags'] = false;
    $args['teeny'] = false;
    $args['tinymce'] = array( 
    'tinymce' => array(
            'toolbar1' => 'formatselect, bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, blockquote, link, forecolor, bullist, numlist, alignleft, aligncenter, alignright, outdent, indent, undo, redo',
	    'autoresize_min_height' => 100,
            'wp_autoresize_on'      => true,
            'plugins'               => 'wpautoresize',
        ), 
    );
	
    return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor' );

We have the same problem: users cannot upload images to our forum. How can this problem be solved ? It would be best if users could upload images without admin intervention.

forum: https://www.durecomemuri.it/
WordPress 6.0.1
bbPress: 2.6.9
Buddypress: 10.3.0

add this plugin

bbp style pack

then go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack and the tab will let you fix this issue

[Robin W]

ok, given that I cannot access site (in effect you are sending me a photo of your car engine, rather than letting me see the car itself) I can only suggest it could be a theme or plugin issue

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

bbpress is stil being maintained.

It works fine with wordpress 6.x

[rinde]

Is bbPress no longer being updated?

It shows Last Updated: 8 months ago Untested with your version of WordPress

We are on WordPress 6.01.
I want to buy a theme for bbPress but am afraid it won’t work since it hasn’t been updated in so long 🙂

[Robin W]

no problem – do come back if I can help further.

You might also want to look at

bbp style pack

It has loads of stuff that helps bbpress

ok, now that we have checked the permalinks and the slugs, then it could be a theme or plugin issue

theme is at

https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/buddypress.org/public_html/wp-content/themes/bb-base

but it will still take some work to create a clone of this site.

Using your existing theme, you can most of the sidebar stuff here using the widgets in

bbp style pack

[Robin W]

no easy solution – basically wordpress lets you login with your email so users can still login using email address if their have a different username. So if you need this as a solution then your registration process should not allow users to use their email as username or warn them that if they do it will be public.

You can change any existing ones using

How to Change a Username on WordPress

[Robin W]

ok,

1. create a page called ‘profile’, it needs no content, but make sure the permalink is ‘profile’
2. in dashboard>settings>wp members>pages>profile select the profile page

then use this code

add_action( 'template_redirect' ,'rew_profile' ) ;

function rew_profile () {
	update_option ('rewurl' , $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']  ) ;
	if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']   ==  '/profile/') {
	$user_id =get_current_user_id() ;
	$url = bbp_get_user_profile_url( $user_id ) ;
	exit( wp_redirect( $url ) );
		}
}

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

Thank you, Robin. I added the snipped, and it partially worked. The anchor text “time ago” now reflects the time of the latest good post. However the URL is for the latest spam post.

I started digging a bit through bbpress code. It looks like if the fix was inside bbp_topic_freshness_link() it would be much easier to test, as we would not need to wait for a new spam post to test the fix. And perhaps make decisions based on the wp_post status having the value “publish”. This way the solution would not be specific to Akismet. But I am really too new to WordPress coding and bbPress to be making this kind of changes myself.

[Robin W]

ok, give this a try – it may or may not do the trick !!

add_action ('bbp_new_topic_post_extras', 'rew_spam_update_last_active', 10 ,1 ) ;

function rew_spam_update_last_active ($topic_id) {
	//this function tests if a new topic has been marked as spam by Akismet.  If so then the last active date will be wrong
	//So we use topic walker to recalculate it
	if (!empty (get_post_meta( $topic_id, '_bbp_akismet_user_result' ))) {
	bbp_update_topic_walker ($topic_id) ;
	}
}

WP-Members Membership Plugin

[janecarole]

I have a WP-Members profile that shows up when a logged-in user chooses “My Profile” from the drop down list on the Home tab on my website:

https://lemonstograpes.com/home

(WordPress 6.0)

I would like the user’s WP profile information to have a link that would take the user to their bbPress Forum profile. I have no idea how to do this (not a programmer).

My current solution is to include the following text at the bottom of the user’s WP-Members profile:

(Note: User Profile information that provides forum related detail is accessed by clicking the picture [avatar] that appears beside a Forum post.)

[Robin W]

I fully understand – you have an issue where one forum is not showing. Given that showing these forums are settings within your theme or LMS, not within bbpress, then it most likely that it is a setting somewhere within this.

so you can try one last thing

dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets the permalinks and may help

then if you srea still convinced that it is not theme or plugin, you can prove this using

i think it is lifterLMS and theme is LifterLMS launchpad child, and we have also “Restrict – membership, site, content and user access restrictions for WordPress” plugin, but I dont think that error is in this plugins, because other categories of forum work.

bbpress gives you the forum

buddypress and/or this should give you the messages

Hi! I have problem in bbpress forum, we have bbpress forum on our page on this link https://bmedic-online.cz/diskuzni_fora/. You can see whole forum, but in individual categories you have no access, but when you click “Biologie” or “Chemie” it announces you that you have no privilege. Every category works, but “Fyzika” doesnt. Even if you try to enter “Fyzika”, none announcement appear. I am including screenshots of it. On screenshots on “forum.png” you can see whole forum, and when i click on category “Chemie” and “Biologie” it forwards to forum depicted on screen “chemie_forum.png” and “biologie_forum.png”. But when i click on “Fyzika” category, nothing shows up, and it is interesting that icons in admin panel dont show up (in red rectangle on “fyzika_forum.png”).
I dont understand what happend, nobody changed anything.

bbpress version is updated to newest, and wordpress is 5.9.
Link to google drive for screens is here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1fKEU15U9GzHaC9KwXJ_XhGe8mSI7HVeC?usp=sharing

Can somebody help me?

[Robin W]

ok, I’ve found time to take an initial look at this.

The function called looks at a database item which holds the sub forum count – but it looks like this is just count of public forums, so the count is zero, so none displayed.

so removing looking at this takes away the issue.

It would take a deal of work to see why and how to make a permanent fix to this, and I think this filter will do what you want

add_filter('bbp_forum_get_subforums', 'rew_forum_get_subforums', 10, 3);

function rew_forum_get_subforums( $sub_forums, $r, $args ) {

	// Default return value
	$retval = array();
	
	// Use passed integer as post_parent
	if ( is_numeric( $args ) && ! empty( $args ) ) {
		$args = array( 'post_parent' => bbp_get_forum_id( $args ) );
	}

	// Parse arguments against default values
	$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array(
		'post_parent'         => 0,
		'post_type'           => bbp_get_forum_post_type(),
		'posts_per_page'      => get_option( '_bbp_forums_per_page', 50 ),
		'orderby'             => 'menu_order title',
		'order'               => 'ASC',
		'ignore_sticky_posts' => true,
		'no_found_rows'       => true
	), 'forum_get_subforums' );

	// Ensure post_parent is properly set
	$r['post_parent'] = bbp_get_forum_id( $r['post_parent'] );
	
	
	// Query if post_parent has subforums
	if ( ! empty( $r['post_parent'] )  ) {
		$get_posts = new WP_Query();
		$retval    = $get_posts->query( $r );
	}
	// Filter & return
	return (array) apply_filters( 'rew_forum_get_subforums', $retval, $r, $args );
	
}
