I do not want BBPress login anywhere, nowhere at all, because I’m already handling login:

https://veganlinked.com/forums/forum/welcome/ see login at the bottom? That comes from BBPress, that is a BBPress forum. BBPress is a forum that has a login by default. I do not want their login.

Take that back, working when put in the following file:

wp-content/plugins/bp-classic/themes/bp-default/functions.php

Thanks.

ok you doing the equivalent of sending me an image of your car engine and expecting me to tell you what the noise it is making is caused by. 🙂 🙂

I would suspect it is theme related, and menus and scroll are theme related.

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

I said something about email error but forget it, emails are well working.

Problem is to go to default page after login instead of URL link include in the email.
Not appropriate. People want to open the page they asked for from the email. This is the way with public forum or already logged in. But we can’t expect users to be connected all the time. Right ?

[jpsws]

Right now, my forums seem to be formatted according to my theme’s single post template, which uses a cover style layout in my theme. This doesn’t suit the pages generated by bbPress (see forum, topic compared to forum index).

How can I tell bbPress to use a default page template rather than post?

Thanks very much!

Hello, we are facing issue of replay not working on admin side, while adding new replay is working correctly, we have deactivated all plugins and switch to WordPress default theme still there is problem.

Error:
URL: SITE-URL/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=reply
https://prnt.sc/IeBiZTUV9ID4

Thanks in advance

Hello there,

I am using WordPress version 6.5 and bbPress version 2.6.9. This problem has been persisting for us for a while and isn’t an issue with the latest version of WP.

The pagination on our forums is not working. Clicking page 2 on the home page of the forum takes you to the page 2 URL but displays the results from page 1. The same thing happens if you view a topic – it shows only the most recent replies, even when going to page 2, 3, and so on.

Our forums are at https://pharmapreneuracademy.com/groups/the-academy-forum/forum/ but are hidden. Please let us know how we can provide credentials.

What I have tried:

– Checked error logs both in the site back-end and in the console and did not see anything relevant.
– Flushed & disabled the cache
– I disabled all plug-ins and changed the theme to default. This did not fix the issue. This means it isn’t a plug-in/theme conflict.
– Added custom post types to the cache exception rules
– Flushed the permalinks
– Deleted the .htaccess file manually and allowed it to regenerate.
– “Resetting forum slugs to default” in BBpress Forum Tools.

Can you please advise on what the issue might be?

Thanks,
Sky

you would need to add this to your additional/custom css

/*topic titles*/
.bbpress .forum-titles {
	overflow: hidden;
}
.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-voice-count::before,
.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-reply-count::before {
	font: 400 16px/1 dashicons;
	margin-right: 100px;
	-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
	-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
}

	.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-voice-count::before,
	.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-reply-count::before {
		font: 400 21px/1 dashicons;
		margin-left: 20px;
	}

.bbp-topic-voice-count {
	display: none;
}

.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-voice-count::before {
	content: "\f307";
}
.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-reply-count::before {
	content: "\f125";
}

.bbpress li.bbp-header li.bbp-forum-info,
.bbpress li.bbp-header li.bbp-topic-title {
	text-align: left !important;
}

and then amend loop-topics.php as foillows

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

transfer this to your pc and edit

<li class="bbp-topic-voice-count"><?php esc_html_e( 'Voices', 'bbpress' ); ?></li>
			<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"><?php bbp_show_lead_topic()
				? esc_html_e( 'Replies', 'bbpress' )
				: esc_html_e( 'Posts',   'bbpress' );
			?></li>

to

<li class="bbp-topic-voice-count"></li>
<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"></li>

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-topics.php.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

HI Robin,
in fact, sorry I didn’t pay enough attention, but when Yousify is not activated the warning is else :

Forums

Warning: Undefined array key “forum_count” in /home/clients/3db470ac3c186374a924a94534df90ab/sites/testXXXX.com/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-statistics.php on line 27

Is there any way to change the BBPRESS Topics and Posts default menu listing to show an icon/image instead ?

I have seen a couple of BBPRESS forums (https://wordpress.org/support/view/all-topics/) that achieve this, but no idea how ?

Thanks

[Robin W]

ok, not much i can do without seeing it, but 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

[Robin W]

so set a global sidebar and make this the default

https://wpastra.com/docs/sidebar-free/

and bbpress should use this.

just a final thought. Your theme should have a default template – you might be able to change this in dashboard>appearance>customize to one that doe not have a sidebar.

[Tim Codex]

Thank you so much for the reply. This really helps me show the forum. The only problem is the styles for the blocks are not included along with the forum page. I think the default hooks for block themes are not included in the plugin.

Hope to receive your confirmation. Thank you very much.

[webcreations907]

You could try the below

.bbpress.topic-template-default .cs-entry__header{
  display: none;
}

Hi,

My theme is creating a featured image on the Topics which I can’t seem to change so I just have a large grey blob square at the top of every topic.

Introduce Yourself

I tried multiple default image wordpress themes and none of them worked.

I can’t add code to display: none because then it takes away the featured posts from the blog section.

Help?

[mikeraine11]

I’ve read that WordPress’s new FSE themes such a Twenty Twenty Four can be an issue with bbPress because bbPress is so out of date (hasn’t been updated in over 2 years, which is very concerning).

However, I am VERY reluctant to change themes. We JUST went through a lot of time and work to rebuild the site after migrating from the old host to WordPress.com because the old custom theme was not compatible with Jetpack. I chose Twenty Twenty-Four because I assumed, as the newest WordPress default theme, that it was the most future-proof and would avoid compatibility issues.

Is there just no way around this issue while keeping the Twenty Twenty Four theme?

[Robin W]

ok, so you definitely have bbpress enabled 🙂

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. don’t use twenty twenty four, as it is an FSE theme

You can build your forum to look however you like, many would complain if this was the only way you could show your forum.

The basic look of the forum is generally determined by your theme, and dependent in theme how you use sidebars.

The widgets on the left are available either in the default bbpress plugin or in

bbp style pack

which will let you style bbpress and add lots of features.

[duwg]

feel like this forum is a bit of false advertising 🙂 because the default setup looks nothing like bbpress.org

does anyone know how to get their bbpress layout too look more like bbpress.org and buddpress.org

I mean the Forum home page shows recent topics/discussion on the right hand side and Category on the left hand side more like Vanilla forum

default bbpress setup is a forum style home page show category first

[Robin W]

it needs a template change – if you know how to FTP

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

transfer this to your pc and edit

change:

<li class="bbp-topic-voice-count"><?php esc_html_e( 'Voices', 'bbpress' ); ?></li>
			<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"><?php bbp_show_lead_topic()
				? esc_html_e( 'Replies', 'bbpress' )
				: esc_html_e( 'Posts',   'bbpress' );
			?></li>

to

<li class="bbp-topic-voice-count"></li>
<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"></li>

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-topics.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

Repeat this for the file loop-forums.php
