No success Robin. I used troubleshooting mode. I switched to a default theme, enabled bbpress and style pack – notification was still the same. On my theme the same.
ok, so I am wondering if something else is interfering.
it could be a theme or plugin issue

Sure Robin. I’m not sure if it’s wordpress default template, but I’ll show you what I receive (as a test user, not admin) and what I set up.
Here’s what I receive:
Here’s my template:
I also noticed that “Don’t show this message” (Oh bother! No forums were found here!) doesn’t work for me. I ticked it, but the message is still there. Is there a php snippet I could add to my Woody snippet plugin? Thank you.
find

transfer this to your pc and edit the text as desired
and save
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
Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/feedback-no-access.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
untested, but of you add
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'user-login' ); ?>
to the end of that form, it should also show a login
HI. I have bbp Style Pack. I set up nice templates in Subscription Emails tab, but users don’t receive those mails. They receive default WordPress notifications. How to force bbPress to send those nice looking templates I’ve created?
Thank you

it’s a wordpress rather than bbpress issue.
The documentation could be clearer, but that section refers to the tinymce not the text editor
I’ve not tried it, but this might help
Paste As Plain Text By Default
@johnjamesjacoby –
as far as I understand, the issue is detailed in changeset 7190 – yes?
so it is basically to hide the ‘generate passwword’ in form-user-passwords.php if the user’s browser does not support js or it is disabled.
If so, at the moment all bbpress pages end up with a no-js class as bbpress sets ‘no-js’ as the default, which means that the quicktags do not display on the topic and reply forms as they need js but the css thinks it is no-js, and the visual editor does not work for the same reasons.
At the moment you only test for js using the script technique in form-user-passwords.php viz
<script type="text/javascript">
document.body.className = document.body.className.replace( 'no-js', 'js' );
</script>
so I would suggest 1 of 2 approaches
1. putting this test in more generally so it runs on any bbpress page (as usefully suggested by @webcreations907) maybe by adding to the main function, or adding a filter in \includes\core\filters.php to run the script
so something like :
add_filter ('bbp_body_class' , bbp_test_js) ;
function bbp_test_js ($classes) {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.body.className = document.body.className.replace( 'no-js', 'js' );
</script>
<?php
return $classes ;
}
so that others could disable it
2. changing the class to bbp-no-js should work, if you do this in the bbp_body_class function and the form-user-passwords.php and in css, then I can no reason why it would not work if that is the sole intention of this.

So our site typically has minimal users, myself and a few admins. We login properly and make the edits to the site.
We have a forum set-up coming online. Our registrants to the forum will get an email when they register. They’ll register from the bbpress shortcode I included on a page.
Instead of saying “Welcome the forum”, the email they receive says New User Registration.
The URL it provides is the /wp-login, not the page with the bbpress login shortcode. It’s a default WP registration and login.
I’d liked to customize emails going to forum registrants that are specific to the forum.
Does that make sense?
Thx–
How can I edit the background color of sticky threads in a forum? I cannot find the current/default color in my style.css file or anywhere else so far.
Thanks!
ok, I cannot replicate – might be a multisite issue, might not.
all I can suggest further is the standard advice :

Hi Robin,
thank you for your reply.
For your reference, wp-cli commands often (if not all) have default outputs and they do not need to be explicitly declared unless particular outputs are expected.
Here is a list of all post types available on my WordPress installation:
https://markuphero.com/share/5dn5FOkMzGNpG9R6Unbx
As you can see, I have a custom post type named ‘sfwd-lessons’ so if I run the command wp post list --post_type=sfwd-lessons I have all these custom posts which are listed with the default outputs:
https://markuphero.com/share/8Mbqbgujeaou2QH60l1k
But when i’m trying wp post list --post_type=topic the output is empty:
https://markuphero.com/share/3APucSjLM0IHRgLHIuVb
https://markuphero.com/share/V3pihOOXPNQWUx3Knzqd
Have you really tried it on your end?
Warm regards,
Ludovic
So I just got bbPress installed and working on getting it setup.
I noticed the URL being a bit long and redundant:
.com/forums/forum/ohio-medical/
Is it possible in setting to pull one of those “forums” out of the URL?
Thanks!

spectators should not be able to create topics.
Participants by default can.
you will either need to
change participant permissions -see this
Custom Capabilities
or add
Private groups
and set up topic permissions which will then let you set up a group with permission to reply only
suspect that as bbpress has custom post types, your sidebar manager is responsible
so standard testing advice is

untested, but this should take out newlines and change the excerpt length to 150 – just change the 150 in the code to whatever length you want.
so firstly you need to alter the default in wordpress which is 55 so
add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'rew_change_default_length' ) ;
function rew_change_default_length () {
return 150;
}
then alter it in the bbpress function, and change to take out line breaks
add_filter ('bbp_get_topic_excerpt' , 'rew_remove_line_breaks', 10 , 3) ;
function rew_remove_line_breaks ($excerpt, $topic_id, $length){
$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id( $topic_id );
//change length here
$length = 150 ;
$excerpt = get_post_field( 'post_excerpt', $topic_id );
if ( empty( $excerpt ) ) {
$excerpt = bbp_get_topic_content( $topic_id );
}
$excerpt = trim( strip_tags( $excerpt ) );
//take out line breaks
$excerpt = preg_replace("/\r|\n/", "", $excerpt);
// Multibyte support
if ( function_exists( 'mb_strlen' ) ) {
$excerpt_length = mb_strlen( $excerpt );
} else {
$excerpt_length = strlen( $excerpt );
}
if ( ! empty( $length ) && ( $excerpt_length > $length ) ) {
$excerpt = mb_substr( $excerpt, 0, $length - 1 );
$excerpt .= '…';
}
// Filter & return
return apply_filters( 'rew_get_topic_excerpt', $excerpt, $topic_id, $length );
}
Put this in your child theme’s function file –

find

so you will want to take the link out of line 34

and save
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
Then transfer the file you saved above 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
amending the freshness will require you to amend the bbp_get_forum_freshness_link function. if you are familiar with filters you can use the filter on line 585 of \includes\forums and a str_replace to take out the link
Just had a thought and dug in the code further, the duplicate check doesn’t apply to those roles/users that can ‘throttle’
// No duplicate checks for those who can throttle
if ( user_can( (int) $r['post_author'], 'throttle' ) ) {
return true;
}

so default Keymaster and Moderator can post duplicates
ok, so
I understand from this threat that the layout of search results or topic-tag pages can be customized based on the template files stored in the bbpress/templates/default/bbpress folder.
In order to retain the customization during updates of the bbpress plugin, I have created the same folder structure inside the directory of my child theme (see screenshot).
yes that is correct and should work, BUT you would do better to only copy those templates you are changing/altering – bbpress will then use those you have changed from your child theme directory and use the unchanged from the plugin directory..
so what are users clicking to get the topic tags page ?
Hi there,
I understand from this threat that the layout of search results or topic-tag pages can be customized based on the template files stored in the bbpress/templates/default/bbpress folder.
In order to retain the customization during updates of the bbpress plugin, I have created the same folder structure inside the directory of my child theme (see screenshot).
The only change I’d like to make is for the topic-tag page to look exactly like the search-result page (see screenshot) –> list of forum threats in full length rather than list of titles only.
In order to realize that I need to…
1) copy a ?-search.php file from the plugin directory into the respective subfolder of the child theme and
2) rename it into a ?-topic-tag.php file.
Is this correct? If so, which ?-search and ?-topic-tag file do I need to consider?
Many thanks for your support in advance.
Best regards,
Jan
