Hi again!

I managed to find it now. It’s here:
wp-content/themes/godlike/bbpress/form-reply.php

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

<div id="bbpress-forums">

    <?php endif; ?>

    <?php if (bbp_current_user_can_access_create_reply_form()) : ?>
        <div class="nk-gap-2"></div>
        <h3 class="h4"><?php printf(esc_html__('Reply To: %s', 'godlike'), bbp_get_topic_title()); ?></h3>
        <div class="nk-gap-1"></div>
        <div id="new-reply-<?php bbp_topic_id(); ?>" class="bbp-reply-form nk-box-3 bg-dark-1">

            <form id="new-post" name="new-post" method="post" class="nk-form" action="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">

                <?php do_action('bbp_theme_before_reply_form'); ?>

                <fieldset class="bbp-form">

                    <?php do_action('bbp_theme_before_reply_form_notices'); ?>

                    <?php if (!bbp_is_topic_open() && !bbp_is_reply_edit()) : ?>

                        <?php echo do_shortcode('[nk_info_box icon="fa fa-exclamation-circle" show_close_button="true" class="bg-main-1"]' . esc_html__('This topic is marked as closed to new replies, however your posting capabilities still allow you to do so.', 'godlike') . '[/nk_info_box]'); ?>

                    <?php endif; ?>

hmmm…ok bbpress can have issues on local sites, which is what I hoped then above would clear.

so ‘Viewing the default pages and ‘Hello World’ post is OK though, if any help. ‘ is that same as before, or is helped by the above and was wrong before?

[Robin W]

quickest way is

add_filter(  'gettext',  'rew_bbpress_translate', 20 , 3  );

function rew_bbpress_translate( $translated, $text, $domain ) {
	if ($domain == 'bbpress') {
     $words = array(
                        
                        'Website' => 'WhatsApp no'
             );
     $translated = str_replace(  array_keys($words),  $words,  $translated );
	}

     return $translated;
}

Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

When using this shortcode- [bbp-topic-form]

It’s working.

There are total 3 files named form-topic.php you would have to remove it from all three to remove (default forum). One is in the Bbpress plugin, other in the theme and one somewhere else (use Search function). It’s on line 128 in all three files if memory serves right.

Hi, I am using bbPress Version 2.6.4 in my WordPress site. I want to change the user input field ‘website’ to ‘WhatsApp no’. How to do this? I am not that much familiar in php coding. please help.

[finallyfoundausernamenotusedbefore]

Hello all,

A new problem has arisen, probably as a result of plugin upgrades as there have been a lot recently.

I am using:
BBpress 2.6.4
Advanced noCaptcha & invisible Captcha 5.7.1
bbP private groups 3.8.3
bbp style pack 4.5.3
bbPress Login Register Links On Forum Topic Pages 3.0.1
bbPress Messages 2.0.9.1
LoginPress – Customizing the WordPress Login 1.4.4
WP User Avatar 2.2.6
plus a lot of others not pertinent to the forum (I hope)

Forum is at https://signalbox.org/the-blower/ but I suspect these issues are only visible to registered users.

Underneath the poster’s avatar is a link to the user’s profile. I limited this (for privacy) through bbp style pack to only show the user’s own profile and not that of others. This did work, but now it gives Error 404. I tried setting it to not show any profiles but the link remains active and still goes to Error 404. It is trying to link to https://signalbox.org/the-blower/users/username/

Same occurs if you click on Send Message

Other possibly related issue:
I seem to be getting notifications for postings I have posted in but haven’t subscribed to, I don’t think that happened before. As yet I have had no complaints so am not sure if ordinary users are similarly affected.

All of the above was definitely working at one time. I can’t figure out what has broken it. I can’t find any other mention of these issues in this forum so assume this is peculiar to my site – maybe conflicts between plugins?

Best regards,

John

[g28f99]

Thank you, Robin!
I made some corrections and further checked the selection option parts accordingly. I also add a show contents part referring to a workable previous post with link.
The code can provide options for the user to selection. But the selection result could not be shown. I am not sure whether the selection result was added into metabox properly because I can not use the debug function. And another problem is that the “Field 1 ” was inserted into all previous replies.
Could you further provide help to solve this problem？

add_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_form_content', 'so_additional_content' );
function so_additional_content($post){
	$reply_id = bbp_get_reply_id();
    $meta_element_class = get_post_meta($reply_id, 'custom_element_grid_class_meta_box', true); //true ensures you get just one value instead of an array
    ?>   
    echo '<label>Choose the size of the element :  </label>

    <select name="custom_element_grid_class" id="custom_element_grid_class">
      <option value="normal" <?php selected( $meta_element_class, 'normal' ); ?>>normal</option>
      <option value="square" <?php selected( $meta_element_class, 'square' ); ?>>square</option>
      <option value="wide" <?php selected( $meta_element_class, 'wide' ); ?>>wide</option>
      <option value="tall" <?php selected( $meta_element_class, 'tall' ); ?>>tall</option>
    </select>'
    <?php
}
 

 
add_action('bbp_new_reply_post_extras', 'so_save_metabox');

function so_save_metabox(){ 
    global $post;
    if(isset($_POST["custom_element_grid_class"])) {
         //check the capability: if ( !current_user_can( 'edit_post', $post->ID ))  return $post->ID;
        $meta_element_class = $_POST['custom_element_grid_class'];
        //END OF UPDATE

        update_post_meta($reply_id, 'custom_element_grid_class_meta_box', $meta_element_class);
        //print_r($_POST);
		
    }
}

add_action('bbp_theme_before_reply_content', 'so_show_metabox');

function so_show_metabox() {
  $meta_element_class = get_post_meta($reply_id, 'custom_element_grid_class_meta_box', true);
  // the problem is "Field 1" appear in every reply post
  echo "Field 1: ". $meta_element_class."<br>";  
}

I’ve recently tried the bbpress plugin and have had 0 luck figuring out how to install any themes. Does anyone out there know of a good tutorial explaining how to do this?https://1921681254.mx/

I really want to use bbpress but it just looks horrible with my theme from Elegant Themes. (And the theme looks great). https://100001.onl/

Thanks!

issue got solved!!!!

[kerchmcc]

We have PMPRO (2.3.1) + Buddypress (5.2.0) + bbpress (2.6.4) + bbp style pack (4.5.3) installed.
Buddypress 6.0 really screwed with the displays, so that got rolled back.
WP: 5.4.1

Buddypress shows the profiles of members
In a member profile, there is a link to show forum (bbpress) activity.
Cool
If a user has a favorite or a subscription showing there, there is also an icon [x] implying that I can unsubscribe/unfavorite that item.
However, nothing happens when that [x] is clicked.
I don’t know who to ping about the problem.
If it’s you, please fess up! and thanks

unless you are running a very highly spec’d server and your users can’t wait another nano second, I would not worry about only loading on bbpress pages.

[Pete]

OK, thanks. I’m new to this game, so I hadn’t appreciated where the line between WordPress and bbPress might have been drawn. I was trying here largely becasue this website was set up the way I wanted.

Thanks again for your help though.

[failxontour]

It worked thanks! Sure wouldn’t have suspected that for the future i guess I should use the ispage() option to load it appropiately only for bbpress.

[Robin W]

that only matters if you are doing it for say a theme. there probably is another way, but that is WordPress not bbpress, so if you want to pursue, try the main WordPress forums.

[galwpsite]

Is there no way to turn off the search in bbpress settings?

[Pete]

Thanks again @robin-w. Yes, I saw that one. That does work as long as the text that’s being replaced is ‘Howdy’. but that’s language dependent. Down here, if your site is configured for Australia, it’s ‘G’day’ and in other countries I imagine it’s something different again (and that code works as long as you specify the exact string that you need to replace).

I was actually wanting to get rid of that text altogether, in a language-independent way, so I was hoping that it had a ‘name’, like ‘wp-user-greeting’ or something that you could just do a $wp_adminbar->remove_node on, but it sounds like this is not the case. Is the format of the username/avitar on the admin-bar on this site, where there’s no ‘prefix’ at all, really hard coded (rather than managed through something like a function)?

I am making progress with the code (to identify a user as anonymous before they log in) from your previous response, so thanks again for that, but I’m modifying files that are bound to be replaced with the next WordPress/bbPress update. There must surely be some ‘version independent’ way of doing this…

[galwpsite]

there is no search form, but this is the search page of bbpress. if i turn bbpress of it will return 404.

[Robin W]

you can only enqueue a style name once, so suggest you rename the second child one eg

wp_enqueue_style( 'child-theme-css', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/style.css' , array('parent-style'));
  wp_enqueue_style( 'child-theme-bbpress-css', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/css/bbpress.css', array());

that might be the problem, if not, it certainly isn’t helping

[Robin W]

the bbpress theme that this site uses is here

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

the following file holds the code

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

but you will also need to pull through some css from the theme, and JavaScript to do the drop downs

then tie all this back to the right place in your theme.

It’s quite doable, but well beyond free help

[Pete]

I have what I hope is a simple question. I would like to create a tool bar (wp_admin_bar) that is effectively just like the one on this website: it sits under the website header and includes, in particular, the Anonymous ‘profile’ on the right-hand side before a user is logged in.

I can create an Admin Bar that shows a profile when a user has logged in, but I cannot work out how to include the Anonymous ‘profile’, with its drop-down ‘Register/Lost Password/Log In’ menu.

If there are explicit instructions somewhere on how to achieve this apparently common arrangement, just point me there. If that includes how to add the ‘Create New Topic’ option when a user is logged in, that’d be even better.

I am working with WordPress 5.4.1 and bbPress 2.6.4.

[failxontour]

Hey so I’m trying to enqueue custom CSS for bbPress v2.6.4 on the WP 5.4.1 clan website running a WP Twenty Twenty-child theme.

This is what my functions.php currently looks like

<?php
/**
* Child theme stylesheet einbinden in Abhängigkeit vom Original-Stylesheet
*/
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'child_theme_styles' );
function child_theme_styles() {
  wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
  wp_enqueue_style( 'child-theme-css', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/style.css' , array('parent-style'));
  wp_enqueue_style( 'child-theme-css', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/css/bbpress.css', array());
}
?>

And this is how my bbpress.css looks like.

#bbp-forum-info,
#bbp-forum-topic-count,
#bbp-forum-reply-count,
#bbp-forum-freshness {
  color: #232323;
}
#bbpress-forums {
  background: transparent;
  clear: both;
  margin-bottom: 20px;
  overflow: hidden;
  font-size: 1.75rem;
  color: #232323;
}

The changes I applied in the bbpress.css won’t update the bbpress CSS on the above mentioned site. So their must be something wrong with my functions.php but I can’t yet put my finger on it how to load it properly as I’m pretty new when it comes to WordPress. I wanna append these changes globally to all parts of bbPress forum.

Can someone tell me to if and what i need to specify inside the arrray() call for the bbpress.css to load properly? Or hint me towards what’s wrong here.

[Robin W]

meta boxes are used in the backend, but you are most of the way there.

so to add the dropdown you can use

add_action(‘bbp_theme_before_reply_content’, ‘so_additional_content’);

(there is a bbp_theme_after_reply_content action as well)

and then in the function put the drop down stuff – I’ve not checked your code, so you’ll need to tidy and correct the following if it doesn’t work

so

function so_additional_content () {
?>
<label>Choose the size of the element : </label>
<select name=”custom_element_grid_class” id=”custom_element_grid_class”>
<option value=”normal” <?php selected( $meta_element_class, ‘normal’ ); ?>>normal</option>
<option value=”square” <?php selected( $meta_element_class, ‘square’ ); ?>>square</option>
<option value=”wide” <?php selected( $meta_element_class, ‘wide’ ); ?>>wide</option>
<option value=”tall” <?php selected( $meta_element_class, ‘tall’ ); ?>>tall</option>
</select>
<?php 
}

Then when the user presses submit a function in bbpress called ‘new reply handler’ takes over.

that has a hook

do_action( ‘bbp_new_reply_post_extras’, $reply_id );

which you can link to, to do the save.

so you would have

add_action ( 'bbp_new_reply_post_extras' , 'so_save' ) ;

function so-save ($reply_id) {
$meta_element_class = $_POST[‘custom_element_grid_class’];
update_post_meta($reply_id, ‘custom_element_grid_class_meta_box’, $meta_element_class);
}

again your code is not checked.

you will need to add functionality if you want users to edit their replies and change the dropdown selection

I’ll let you play with the above, and do come back with a first version if you need extra help.

If you fix it, then PLEASE post your solution here to help others

[g28f99]

I hope to customize bbpress reply form area with dropdown selection list. I could not find any previous post reporting similar case in bbpress. Referring to post “Save meta box data from selected dropdown list” with link I prepared similar code for the bbpress reply post condition, but failed to achieve the goal.
Please kindly provide suggestions!

` add_action( ‘bbp_theme_before_reply_form_content’, ‘so_custom_meta_box’ );
//add_action( ‘add_meta_boxes’, ‘so_custom_meta_box’ );

function so_custom_meta_box($post){
add_meta_box(‘so_meta_box’, ‘Custom Box’, ‘custom_element_grid_class_meta_box’, $post->post_type, ‘normal’ , ‘high’);
}

add_action(‘bbp_theme_before_reply_content’, ‘so_save_metabox’);

function so_save_metabox(){
global $post;
if(isset($_POST[“custom_element_grid_class”])){
//UPDATE:
$meta_element_class = $_POST[‘custom_element_grid_class’];
//END OF UPDATE

update_post_meta($reply_id, ‘custom_element_grid_class_meta_box’, $meta_element_class);
//print_r($_POST);
}
}
function custom_element_grid_class_meta_box($post){
$reply_id = bbp_get_reply_id();
$meta_element_class = get_post_meta($reply_id, ‘custom_element_grid_class_meta_box’, true); //true ensures you get just one value instead of an array
?>
<label>Choose the size of the element : </label>

<select name=”custom_element_grid_class” id=”custom_element_grid_class”>
<option value=”normal” <?php selected( $meta_element_class, ‘normal’ ); ?>>normal</option>
<option value=”square” <?php selected( $meta_element_class, ‘square’ ); ?>>square</option>
<option value=”wide” <?php selected( $meta_element_class, ‘wide’ ); ?>>wide</option>
<option value=”tall” <?php selected( $meta_element_class, ‘tall’ ); ?>>tall</option>
</select>
<?php
}

Hi Robin,
Definitely something weird going on with roles & capabilities.
Ended up:
1. removing all forum entries
2. delete bbPress plugin folder

Not the best way to remove a plugin, but all seems OK

thank you
