you need to change this in your toolkit plugin includes/go-functions.php

lines 55 & 56

from

function bbptoolkit_bbpress_list_forums() {
	$args = array();

to

function bbptoolkit_bbpress_list_forums($args) {

This brings through default values, otherwise under 2.6 sub forums don’t get shown.

[pointydrip]

When I try to access mysite.com/forums it does not work with my theme so I copied archive-forum.php to my child theme.

The default archive-forum.php template allows the bbpress content to appear, but not the theme header, so I stripped away the bbpress header items and replaced ‘archive-forum’ with ‘page’ like so:

<?php
get_header(); ?>
    <div id="forum-front" class="bbp-forum-front">
        <div class="entry-content">
            <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'content', 'page' ); ?>
        </div>
    </div><!-- #forum-front -->
    <?php do_action( 'bbp_after_main_content' ); ?>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php
get_footer();

This makes the theme header work, but now the bbpress content is broken.
I am getting the following error:
Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in public_html/wp-includes/post-template.php on line 316

The line in question is:

if ( $elements['page'] > count( $elements['pages'] ) ) { // if the requested page doesn't exist
		$elements['page'] = count( $elements['pages'] ); // give them the highest numbered page that DOES exist
	}

From what I understand /forums is not a page that ‘exists’, but I’ not comfortable modifying WP core. Any help would be appreciated…

[Robin W]

template are designed to be alterable and added to your theme

so

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-profile.php

transfer this to your pc and edit whatever you want

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/user-profile.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

Hi

The user profile pages of my bbPress forums are getting indexed in google.

Example pages
https://domainname.com/users/displayname/
https://domainname.com/users/displayname/topics
https://domainname.com/users/displayname/engagement
https://domainname.com/users/displayname/replies

So I want to add <META NAME=”ROBOTS” CONTENT=”NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW” /> to all the above pages

I think I need to insert the META into wordpress > wp-content > plugins > bbpress > templates > default > bbpress > user-profile.php

But I don’t want to edit the plugin file and lose the change during plugin update.

Is there a PHP code I can use to make the insertion to the user-profile.php?

Thanks in advance for the help

Hi all,

Looking for a way to stop spam user regestrations. By default the users are “spectators” so the spam users cant do anything but is there a way to stop them outright?

I enabled reCAPTCHA for bbPress but, unless I am doing something wrong, it doesn’t seem to stop the regestrations (in fact not sure its working).

Thanks.

Hi folks. I am trying to add the shortcode for a single forum [bbp-single-forum id=$id ]

However I cannot find the ‘forum id’ anywhere.

The bbpress install is new and I have only created one test forum. Nowhere is the ‘test forum id’ listed. I can only see a field for ‘order’ which is by default ‘0’. So I tried the forum id as 0 but nothing appears on the page, I have also tried the id as 1 as it is the only forum created.
Please note that the shortcode for showing ‘all forums’ work as expected on the page.

Any thoughts?
Thank you.

Hi Robin, fully understand. Thanks for your reply.
The issue appears on default wordpress theme and the same appears on Divi theme. I already discuss with the support from Divi and they´v replied, that it has something to do with plugin itself.

[Robin W]

suggest if you haven’t updated or changed software that you contact your host provider

otherwise

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.

Then come back

I’m new to WordPress and bbPress, so I apologize if my terminology isn’t quite right 🙂

I have create a pretty page and inserted the BB shortcode which shows all the forums. However, when I open one of the forums, or one of the topics, I find each opening in a fairly generic page.

Is it possible to create nice pages for these, and tell bbPress to open the forum/topic in the page I created? (I don’t like the default page).

[neon67]

the same situation occurred after upgrading to 2.6. Increasing the number of spam links helped.
Pay attention to posts with quotes – there is at least 1 link to the source and there may be more links-the picture is also considered as a link!

by default, 2 links are not enough.

[Robin W]

those words are not from bbpress.

Hi, When a moderator edits a Topic in the WordPress Dashboard, there’s a section near the bottom with the Replies in it. However it also reveals user’s email and IP addresses.

Is there a way to hide the emails and IP’s in this section for moderators?
I’ve already hidden IP’s on the front end for mods by editing some code related to the loop-single-reply.php (more info here, thank you Robin).

Or, is there a way to make the Replies box that appears there turned off by default for moderators, under the screen options?

Thank you, Sam

All right, I’ll make a post. Usually try everything under the sun to troubleshoot things myself, and I’m usually successful, but this one is giving me fits. I’m importing a phpbb 3.1.9 database into the current release of bbPress. I plugged the MySQL database into my local server (it’s my box, I have full access) and pointed the importer at it. No problems up to that point. It creates users, deletes their default passwords, converts the forums, and then just continually tries the “Calculating forum hierarchy (X of X)” step over and over and over. I’ve tried restarting it, clearing previously-imported data, etc. – no dice.

I can get at whatever files might be necessary to get this working. This is a cluster of a migration on a few levels, so any assistance would be appreciated immensely. 🙂

Beyond free help, but start with

[Robin W]

probably because it is not a bug in version 6.x!!!

it will be theme or plugin related

Hi guys,

I’m beginner developper and i have a problem which i’m trying to solve on my website, i created a function to show groups website statistics on their group -> stats tab on group page, the thing work perfectly with an embedded public stats API, but i want to show theses tab on user dashboard too, not only on group -> stats tab, so i tried to copy past the function display() but it didn’t work, the $setting variable and $setting2 variable are NULL..

Someone can help me on this problem please, you can check the code below for more informations :

function stats() {

ok, so the first bbpress file (there will be another for replies) that we need to filter is :

incudes/topics/templates.php

if you open and look at the file on line 2425 you’ll find the function that does the edit topic link.

Within this is a function that bbpress uses to let us filter parameters (called bbp_parse_args)

it looks like this

// Parse arguments against default values
		$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array(
			'id'           => 0,
			'link_before'  => '',
			'link_after'   => '',
			'edit_text'    => esc_html__( 'Edit', 'bbpress' )
		), 'get_topic_edit_link' );

you’ll see the word ‘Edit’ is contained in the ‘edit_text’ parameter, so it is this that we need to amend.

we can use a filter to change what this says, so we don’t need to amend that file- so this code put in your child theme functions file

add_filter ('bbp_before_get_topic_edit_link_parse_args' , 'my_edit_topic_filter', 10 , 1 ) ;

function my_edit_topic_filter ($args) {
	$args['edit_text'] = 'this' ;

return $args ;

}

will change ‘EDIT’ to ‘THIS’

The parameter is effectively output on line 2455 in

$retval = $r['link_before'] . '<a href="' . esc_url( $uri ) . '">' . $r['edit_text'] . '</a>' . $r['link_after'];

so if $r[‘edit_text’] outputs the icon, then you are on the way. If the icon is an image, then using html img etc. in the function above should be good.

let me know that you make progress with this approach – or come back.

If you fix that one, I’ll help you work out the rest 🙂

Solved by deleting the code lines on wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-anonymous.php

[Robin W]

you will need to amend a template, so need to be able to edit and ftp files.

If so, then

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

transfer this to your pc and edit

change line 46 from

<?php if ( current_user_can( 'moderate', bbp_get_reply_id() ) ) : ?>
to

<?php if ( bbp_is_user_keymaster() ) : ?>

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-reply.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original and only keymasters will see the ip address

[Robin W]

you are assuming that because it doesn’t work for you it doesn’t work for anyone 🙂

It works fine on my test site.

so create a new topic and subscribers to the forum get an email when a new topic is created.
