Hi Robin, just cleared the cache and found that via GD Power Search for bbPress plugin, the default search works, but when I then select advanced search, the page/script for advance search does not appear. Home › Forums › Search ?

I have left it running an my site incase you get a chance to try for yourself, you do not need to be a forum member for searches etc on my site ?

Hi

Currently running bbPress 2.6.4 and would like to understand how to remove / hide the default search bar that appears at the top of the Forums page listings

I have in a side bar widget set-up ‘GD Power Search for bbPress’ – (works very well), just need to remove the Search bar from the top of the Forums page as looks out of character for my forum

Forum is https://uktechhub.com/forums/

Thanks

I’m checking this very old plugin

bbPress Go To First Unread Post

Isn’t this implemented by default in bbpress nowadays?

Hey there,

I got that code for you so you can add it to your page and give it a try.

Put the code below in your style.css file of your theme, you can change as needed. It only styles the filter buttons.

.airport-iata-info{
  padding-left:15px;
  color:rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
  font-weight:bolder;
  font-size:14px;
  margin-top:20px;
}
.airport-iata-filter-tag-wrap span.active,
.airport-iata-filter-tag-wrap span:hover{
  background-color:#087cc1;
  color:#fff;
}
.airport-iata-filter-tag-wrap{
  border:1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.1);;
  display:table;
  padding:0 10px 10px;
  border-radius:4px;
}
.airport-iata-filter-tag-wrap span{
  background-color:#fff;
  box-shadow:0 2px 5px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
  margin:10px;
  border-radius:4px;
  padding:10px 20px !important;
  display:inline-block;
  
}

This code below you’ll need to put in your functions.php file of your theme, best if you put in child theme so that you don’t have to replace when you update your theme in the future. The function below is only set to run on that page you have the listed tags on.

if(!function_exists('airport_iata_code_filter_buttons')){
	function airport_iata_code_filter_buttons(){
		if(!function_exists('is_page')) return;
		if(is_page(4760)){
			?>
			<script>
				(function($){
	  
				  var buttons= {};
				  buttons['a-f'] = 'a b c d e f';
				  buttons['g-l'] = 'g h i j k l';
				  buttons['m-s'] = 'm n o p q r s';
				  buttons['t-z'] = 't u v w x y z';
				  
				  var get_tag_class = function( tag ){
				    var tag_class = false;
				    $.each(buttons,function(index,el){
				      if(el.indexOf(tag.toLowerCase()) > -1){
				        tag_class = index;
				        return false;
				      }

				    });
				    
				    return tag_class;
				  }
				 
				  $('#bbp-topic-hot-tags .tag-cloud-link').each(function(){
				   var tag_class = get_tag_class($(this).text().slice(0,1));
				    if(tag_class !== false){
				      $(this).addClass('airport-iata-filter-tag-cloud-'+tag_class).attr('data-airport-iata-tag',tag_class);
				    }
				  });
				  
				  $('#bbp-topic-hot-tags').prepend('<div class="airport-iata-filter-tag-wrap" style="margin-bottom:20px;"><div class="airport-iata-info">Filter IATA Codes</div></div>');
				  $('.airport-iata-filter-tag-wrap').append('<span style="cursor:pointer;padding:10px;" class="airport-iata-filter-all active">All</span>');
				$.each(buttons,function(index,el){
					$('.airport-iata-filter-tag-wrap').append('<span data-airport-iata-filter-key="'+index+'" style="cursor:pointer;padding:10px;" class="airport-iata-filter-tag-cloud-'+index+'">'+index.toUpperCase()+'</span>');
				});
				  
				  $(document).on('click', '.airport-iata-filter-tag-wrap span', function(e){
				    e.preventDefault();
				    $('.airport-iata-filter-tag-wrap span').removeClass('active');
				    $(this).addClass('active');
				    if($(this).hasClass('airport-iata-filter-all')){
				      $('#bbp-topic-hot-tags a.tag-cloud-link').show();
				    }else{
				      $('#bbp-topic-hot-tags a.tag-cloud-link').hide();
				      $('#bbp-topic-hot-tags a.tag-cloud-link.airport-iata-filter-tag-cloud-'+$(this).attr('data-airport-iata-filter-key')).show();
				    }
				 });
				  
				})(jQuery);
			</script>
			<?php
		}
	}
	add_action( 'wp_footer', 'airport_iata_code_filter_buttons', 100);
}

That’s it, should work. Let me know if you have any issues or questions on any of that.

Really interesting plugin
I did not even modify the Freshness Display and it switched to last reply by default.

I’m going to help you out with the translation to Spanish of that plugin.

By the way, for code improvements, how do you track changes? do you have public repo for the plugin or using WP SVN?

[webcreations907]

Hello,

How about just adding filter buttons to your current page so that users on your site aren’t directed to another page, instead the tags are displayed based on “Filter” type buttons they click while on that same page. Kinda like a filtered portfolio type set up.

Example
Filter buttons at the top of your tag cloud(i.e A-F, G-L,M-S, etc), when user clicks say “A-F”, then all the tags that are within that range are shown, while the rest are hidden. But you’d still be on the same page. Then have a “All” button so they could get back to the default view of all them being shown.

Just a bbpress user here, just had a idea for you on that so thought I’d mention it.

[Robin W]

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, 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.

The Divi Theme Builder Header is not loading on BBPress search results. Instead, it looks as though it is loading the default WordPress header.

Incorrect header

Correct Header

I contacted Elegant Themes already and they directed me here.
Thoughts?

Wordpress v5.3.2
BBPress v2.6.4

ok, I can only suggest that you revert to the standard tests

you could exclude forums from caching in sg optimizer

go to

dashboard>sg optimizer>supercacher settings>Excluding URLs

and set up your site’s forums urls

eg (and you will need to change these is you don’t have the default slugs set up)

add these

http://www.site.com/forums/*
http://www.site.com/forum/*
http://www.site.com/topic/*
http://www.site.com/reply/*

[Robin W]

if you have subscriptions set in

dashboard>settings>forums

then this should show.

I suspect that another plugin or your theme is causing this.

Oddly, the sidebar content for user shows (username, links to topics, etc.) even though there is a 404 error where the main forums should be. I tried running bbPress with almost all plugins disabled and default theme enabled – still get the 404. But when main page is refreshed, forums display correctly.

Hi,

I’m currently testing bbPress (with the default plugin templates/themes) and have noticed that a number of inputs do not have labels associated with them. I run a number of sites that require we meet a standard of WCAG 2.1 AA.

Is this something that is likely to be amended in upcoming versions?

And does anyone have any advice regarding making bbPress compliant?

Thanks
Laura

My bbPress installation is customized a little and has subscribe and favourite buttons in a different place. Since 2.6 extra favourite and subscribe links are appearing in the lead topic header. Is there a way to remove the default ones and keep the ones generated by <?php bbp_topic_favorite_link();?> and <?php bbp_topic_subscription_link(); ?>?

[Robin W]

no, that probably wasn’t the problem, if you had been on version 5.x then that might be the issue.

If php version doesn’t fix then it could be a theme or plugin issue

Hey Guyes,

This issue because you are using this function [bbp_list_forums] in [loop-single-forum.php] with old (2.5.0) default args array in your active theme.

You must use [bbp_get_forum_id()] in function’s args, So try to find this function inside the active theme and change the value of the [forum_id] argument.

bbp_list_forums( array(
    'before'            => '<ul class="bbp-forums-list">',
    'after'             => '</ul>',
    'link_before'       => '<li class="bbp-forum">',
    'link_after'        => '</li>',
    'count_before'      => ' (',
    'count_after'       => ')',
    'count_sep'         => ', ',
    'sep'               => '',
    'forum_id'          => bbp_get_forum_id(), /* Fix for bbPv2.6.3 */
    'show_topic_count'  => true,
    'show_reply_count'  => true 
) );

Hope it helps.

[haddly]

I have it dequeued in my functions.php file:
wp_dequeue_style( 'bbp-default' );

[Robin W]

@hydrogriff – ok, not sure that I ma goung to be able to help much further.
I can only suggest it could be a theme or plugin issue

[Robin W]

looked in pastebin.

I’m not sure what this function is there for, except possibly to speed up site display if they have not accessed the forum part ?

function dequeue_bbpress_style() {
    if ( class_exists('bbPress') ) {
      if ( ! is_bbpress() ) {
        wp_dequeue_style('bbp-default');
        wp_dequeue_style( 'bbp_private_replies_style');
        wp_dequeue_script('bbpress-editor');
      }
    }
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'dequeue_bbpress_style', 99 );

it does tend to suggest that you have bbp_private_replies enabled ???

[Robin W]

The best solution is to clone this widget and then amend.

so put this in your functions.php

It creates a duplicate login widget, but you’ll find it in dashboard>appearance>widgets called
(mat) login Widget. You can then add your code to this version

function register_mat_login_widget() {
    register_widget("MAT_Login_Widget");

}

add_action('widgets_init', 'register_mat_login_widget');

class MAT_Login_Widget extends WP_Widget {

	/**
	 * MAT Login Widget amended
	 *
	 */
	public function __construct() {
		$widget_ops = apply_filters( 'mat_login_widget_options', array(
			'classname'                   => 'mat_widget_login',
			'description'                 => esc_html__( 'A simple login form with optional links to sign-up and lost password pages.', 'bbpress' ),
			'customize_selective_refresh' => true
		) );

		parent::__construct( false, esc_html__( '(mat) Login Widget', 'bbpress' ), $widget_ops );
	}

	/**
