#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author .bbp-author-name {
  width: 100%;
}

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author .bbp-author-role {
  width: 100%;

Hi!

I don’t know if this is possible, but I would like to replace the text editor in reply of bbpress by another wysiwyg html editor like this one:

https://summernote.org/

I have some trouble right now. The users on my web site report me that they can’t put any html code in their post like the balise ul/li. I edit their post and repost. The code appear just fine. They can’t use a simple <br/> but I can. Is it the editor of bbpress? Or a permission thing?

Another admin have the same problem also. They post a first reply with a ul/li. The list appear just fine. He post the same code after that one and the content between the ul/li just desappear.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

I assigned different topics on Forums (bbpress) and arranged its heirarchy.

However when I added groups, there was an option to add forums to groups. I ticked add forums to groups. I thought the forums added via groups will only be viewable in : groups.

When I checked my forums, the ones on top are already the group names. The forum topics I created are already on the bottom part.

1. May I please ask how the group forums can be automatically assigned to the last part of the forums so the forum heirarchy I assigned will remain the same? When there are members who’ll add groups, the layout won’t be messed up since the groups (forums assigned by group) will just be placed on the lower part.

Or

2. How do I remove the portion in Groups where the group creator can add forums? This is so the members won’t be able to add their group forums on the forums I originally created (only when #1 doesn’t work).

Thanks.

Working with WordPress Live support, we have been unable to solve the problem of subscribers to my forum receiving notifications when a new topic is posted (We haven’t yet moved on to testing for those who subscribe to a topic getting notification of any new posts under that topic).
WordPress Live received guidance from you that we should try a different theme (Twenty Twelve) and also try disabling all plugins except for bbPress and trying that. That did not work either.
So, we’re coming back to you for further guidance. Can you provide? Will I receive notification by email when there is a response to this request or do I need to keep checking the forum. My email is eric.brown@cbia.com.
Also, I’m working on WordPress version 5.3.2 and bbPress version 2.6.3
Thank you very much!

Hi,

i use the current bbpress version with akismet.
But since updating to this version i always see posts marked as spam in freshness section. The Spam is not show in the topic detail page.
The last reply id get filled with a spam post.

Does anybody has this issue too or can help me/us fixing this issue?

[Robin W]

Freshness doesn’t seem to update as quickly any more?

and in particular

bbp Refresh Last Active Time

[Editor Mike]

I have run all the tools and checked the cache.
At one point it appeared that the forum was reporting freshness based on the latest topic, not the latest reply.
But it is so all over the place, I am not sure that is the case anymore.

Here is a screen shot that shows a typical error.

Here is a link to the above forum:

https://www.thewargameswebsite.com/forums/forum/general-discussion-3/game-design/

The thing that baffles me, is that the freshness URL is correct.
So why is the bbpress forum itself not reflecting this?

https://www.thewargameswebsite.com/forums/view/topics-freshness/

Here is the site, please do have a look around in the various forums and you will see the freshness is a mess.

If anyone can help I will be very appreciative.

Hi Robin,
here we go: https://gtauscht.de/forums/

Thanks
Matthias

PS: Thanks for your plugins and your engagement for bbpress!

[Editor Mike]

I posted a topic about Freshness and thought it odd there had been no replies given how common freshness is an issue.

I came to see if anyone had replied and the topic is missing from the forums here?
I found it:
https://bbpress.org/?post_type=topic&p=208095

But it has been locked?

[Robin W]

It is that the name is so short that bbpress can fit it in the space

you could fix using

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-author, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author {
	width: 100px;
}

in the custom css area of your theme

[Matthias]

Found it 😉
…/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/widgets.php
About line 135 you can add some links…

<div class="bbp-logged-in">
<a href="<?php bbp_user_profile_url( bbp_get_current_user_id() ); ?>" class="submit user-submit"><?php echo get_avatar( bbp_get_current_user_id(), '40' ); ?></a>
<h4><?php bbp_user_profile_link( bbp_get_current_user_id() ); ?>

Hi,
I want to use the topics RSS feed to send out a newsletter in my email provider.
The problem is that at the moment the RSS feed is bringing in the entire contents of the topic post rather than just a summary.
I understand the BBPress RSS feeds are entirely separate to the main WP feeds and not affected by the reading setting of summary excerpt in the WP settings.
Is it possible to control the length in characters or words that go into the BBPress RSS feed?

Thanks,
Dale.

Hi there, I am facing layout issues on mobiles, desktop/tablet is OK, here are the pics:

<script async src=”//s.imgur.com/min/embed.js” charset=”utf-8″></script>

Could you please help me with this? I believe that it might be related to CSS setting or something.

BBpress is running on Divi theme, everything else is OK.

Thank you so much.

I would like to add some links to the bbpress login widget.
Can someone point me in the right direction.
I can not even find the code of the login widget in my bbpress plugin folder…?
Thanks
Matthias

[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

Firstly great to be back here – my last post was 8 years back and it’s amazing to see the difference in the plugin – great job team!

I’m using 2.6.3 now on https://bffinder.ie/topics/ – a place for people to share their interests and find friends and using the bbpress private messages plugin too.

I can see there’s an issue with threaded replies and pagination but wondering if there’s an issue with the reply button.

When I click on reply the form does appear under the persons reply but it causes a page reload and then that reply form hides and user is brought to the standard reply form at the bottom.

Then if I click the exact same reply button again the reply form appears as normal.

[Robin W]

I’m just a bbpress user who helps out on support – I leave trac to the authors 🙂 🙂

[Michael]

Thanks! Did you see my other bug report?

BUG: BuddyPress activity update not working when editing topic or reply

[Robin W]

you can have as many moderators as you like.

If you want a person to moderate across all forums, then set their bbpress role to ‘moderator’ in their profile in the dashboard.

If you want them to only moderate a particular forum, then set that in dashboard>forums>edit forum on the right hand side

[Robin W]

thanks, I’ve logged a trac ticket o the authors will be aware

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3327#ticket

[Robin W]

if you enable subscriptions they could just subscribe to the forums

or presuming these people have a specific role (eg moderator) then

bbPress Notify (No Spam)

[Michael]

In bbpress 2.6.3 threaded replies only work if the WordPress adminbar is enabled. If it is disabled and you click a reply link of a lower level reply the page is reloaded which is not supposed happen. If you then post the reply, it is added at the end of the forum post and not after the corresponding reply.

The bug is in templates/js/reply.js line 109ff. If you remove the reference to the adminbar, threaded replies work properly.

The bug did not exist in bbpress 2.6.1.

[katepirie]

I have a group of people who will moderate my forum. how many people can I put down as moderator for each forum, also how do I change the moderators? I have tried to change a couple of the moderators but the dashboard does not take the modification.
