Yes, there is.

I must not have edited the link when I updated and saved the rest of the page.

I’ve updated the page now. Here’s the link if you need it:

Sorry about that!

I just looked in trac, and fixing this is now a 2.8 goal.

However this looks like it might help

// Force ping_status on bbPress post types 
add_filter( 'pings_open', 'rew_force_ping_status' ); 

function rew_force_ping_status( $open, $post_id = 0 ) { 

// Get the post type of the post ID 
$post_type = get_post_type( $post_id ); 
// Default return value is what is passed in $open 
$retval = $open; 
// Only force for bbPress post types 
switch ( $post_type ) { 
case bbp_get_forum_post_type() : 
case bbp_get_topic_post_type() : 
case bbp_get_reply_post_type() : 
	$retval = false; 
break; 
// Allow override of the override 
return apply_filters( 'rew_force_ping_status', $retval, $open, $post_id, $post_type ); 
}

I see that users have been asking to fix this problem for years. I am getting hit hard by this on my site. I cannot disable trackbacks. Before I remove BBPress from my site, do you have a patch to fix this annoying problem in your software?

Hello,

I got a bbPress forum on my website using this template : https://afthemes.com/products/elegant-magazine

My version :
WordPress : 4.9.8
BBPress : 2.5.14

My problem is when I use search function on my forum, its works not fine : the result is not display. And when I try with Twenty Seventeen theme for exemple, the search works.

My question is : What I must do ? Change my theme ? Or its possible to fix it with my current theme.

Thanks in advance bbPress family !

[grignondev]

Hello, I tried to repair the forum one option by one, and its didnt fix the problem.

I forget to say my version :

WordPress : 4.9.8
BBPress : 2.5.14

I refresh my permalinks, not working too. Anyone got an idea ?

Thanks in advance !

Hi,

With WordPress 5 imminently upon is, I wanted to check whether there are any anticipated issues using bbPress in a WordPress 5 install that is running the Classic Editor?

I am assuming that as bbPress is used for the support forums on WP.org it will be ok?

Thanks in advance,

John

I am using bbPress and i have created 5 categories E.G general chat, random discussion, marketing, media, off topic. I want to set limitation for users. I want to restrict general chat and random discussion for user A and media, off topic for user B and random discussion, media for user c. Is there any plug-in (free or paid)?

Waiting for your kind reply.

[John James Jacoby]

Hi there!

If you’re looking for an off-the-shelf solution, BuddyPress and the Private Messages component sounds like the best one. You’d still need to tune it a bit with some custom code to lock it down exactly how you’ve described, but it gives you isolated message threads with invitees, notifications, an inbox, etc…

Technically, in the next major version of bbPress (2.6) you could use the new engagements API to keep those conversations a forum topic, but limit them to specific invited users, but that’s probably more work and less obvious to end users what it’s for & doing.

Hello Bbpress family !

I just import an old forum from PhPbb to Bbpress. I got a first problem with the forum who didnt diplay topics but I solve it. Right now, I got an other problem : When I’m on a user profil, the topic & reply count is good, but if I want to display topic’s & reply’s user, it return ALL of topics & replys of the forum ..

An exemple : https://www.pnc-contact.com/forum/users/steward95/topics

Someone know this issue ?

Hi,

I’m hoping someone who knows bbPress inside and out might be able to help with this tricky request:

I’m trying to add a specific kind of user-to-user contact functionality to my site. Users should only be able to contact one another when the admin (me) opens up a temporary communication channel between two of them (could be a private group, forum, message system, I’m not picky).

Sort of like how Airbnb or Uber temporarily enable private two-way communication channels they can monitor between guest and host, or passenger and driver. Any ideas?

I’m happy to power this manually (creating a group, adding members, then deleting it later) but haven’t been able to figure out how to ONLY enable this type of contact and not let users contact each other outside of these admin-created channels.

Thank you very much!!

[Foliferous]

Hi people,

look here.

I noticed that’s there one space in front of “Admin” here:

This forum contains 2 topics and 2 replies, and was last updated by Admin 9 hours, 17 minutes ago.

You can also see it on the right hand side under “Latest forum posts”.

Best regards.

Hello Everyone

I am currently using WP v4.9.8 and BBP v2.6RC5
I have these plugins for bbpress installed: bbp_style_pack, bbpress moderation tools, bbpress advanced statistics

Currently on my forums I don’t seem to have pagination for topics or replies. I have set the forum settings to use Topics = 25 per page and Replies = 15 per page. But none of the topic or reply pages display any page numbers when it hits that threshold, is there a setting I am missing or something that I can try to get this working?

Pages render fine, but if the topic has 100+ replies it shows them all on that one page.

Thanks for any help on solving this,

I created a list of 5 forums some with sub forums and used the short code to display the index of forums on a page which I added to my navigation menu. Today it is only showing the first forum and none of the others. I’ve tried refreshing the page, renewing the page with the shortcode and gone back over some of the steps (I’ve been trying to remove a sidebar from the forum page) but nothing seems to work. All the forums are listed and I haven’t changed any of the settings within the forums…

I’m using the Ruby theme – but have tried it with twenty fifteen, sixteen and seventeen and the problem persists. I’m using bbpress Version 2.5.14 and the bbpress style plug in Version 4.0.3 which was updated today.

My site is not published as I’m still working on it, ironing out some of these issues.

Thanks for any advice

[wreckcox]

Thank you @robin-w bbp style pack is truly superb. I hope you will be adding even more features. I have been using with my another website.
However, in this case, I am using a custom-designed template, especially for bbpress and buddypress so bbp style paack is not compatible with the theme.

[dmalkin]

Having a really difficult time figuring out a way to output topic reply time stamps in a users local timezone. I have a forum with global users and this is a necessity.

WP version: 4.9.8
bbPress version: 2.5.14

Currently using this plugin: Localize Time (https://wordpress.org/plugins/localize-time/)

I am wrapping the bbp_get_reply_post_date() with the shortcode [localize_time]; however, I cannot alter the format of the output date from the shortcode.

I need an alternate solution.

Testing a link back to this thread.

Only Allow YouTube and Vimeo oEmbeds

On my forum, this would have rendered the post here and not just created the heading.

What is the best way to add login and a register link to “You must be logged in to reply to this topic”

I found this but I realized I cannot edit a code as I am very new to PHP.
Please suggest.

	<div id="no-topic-<?php bbp_topic_id(); ?>" class="bbp-no-topic">
		<div class="bbp-template-notice">
			<p><?php is_user_logged_in() ? _e( 'You cannot create new topics.', 'bbpress' ) : _e( 'You must be logged in to create new topics.', 'bbpress' ); ?></p>
		</div>
	</div>

[Robin W]

you should have version 2.5.14 which is the latest authorised release.

Hi Everyone !

First of all, sorry for my english 😉

I installed bbpress on my website and i finally succeded to make all the settings like i wanted ! But one problem remain… I put my forum roots on a page that i created. I made some design on this page (image 1). There is no menu, just an image on the top. You can click on this image and you go back to the homepage. But as soon as you click on a category/forum, the page aren’t the same anymore (image 2). And i would like to take off the header on all the pages. i searched a lot but no way to find how to do that. If someone could help me please ?

Thanks a lot !

When upgrading php version on domain to 7.2, bbpress stopped working.

I made contact with domain company, and they say bbpress have’nt been updated in 3 years, and gave me this info from my site:

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbpress.php:

* $Id: bbpress.php 5951 2015-10-28 04:07:50Z netweb $

checked version on site, and it says Versjon 2.6-alpha??

What to do????

[Robin W]

ok, take the change above out.

Then find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
Make a copy of this file to your pc

The edit this file to be this

<?php

/**
 * Replies Loop - Single Reply
 *
 * @package bbPress
 * @subpackage Theme
 */

?>
<div class='rew-border'>
<div id="post-<?php bbp_reply_id(); ?>" class="bbp-reply-header">

	<div class="bbp-meta">

		<span class="bbp-reply-post-date"><?php bbp_reply_post_date(); ?></span>

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

			<span class="bbp-header">
				<?php _e( 'in reply to: ', 'bbpress' ); ?>
				<a class="bbp-topic-permalink" href="<?php bbp_topic_permalink( bbp_get_reply_topic_id() ); ?>"><?php bbp_topic_title( bbp_get_reply_topic_id() ); ?></a>
			</span>

		<?php endif; ?>

		<a href="<?php bbp_reply_url(); ?>" class="bbp-reply-permalink">#<?php bbp_reply_id(); ?></a>

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

		<?php bbp_reply_admin_links(); ?>

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

	</div><!-- .bbp-meta -->

</div><!-- #post-<?php bbp_reply_id(); ?> -->

<div <?php bbp_reply_class(); ?>>

	<div class="bbp-reply-author">

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

		<?php bbp_reply_author_link( array( 'sep' => '<br />', 'show_role' => true ) ); ?>

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

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

			<div class="bbp-reply-ip"><?php bbp_author_ip( bbp_get_reply_id() ); ?></div>

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

		<?php endif; ?>

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

	</div><!-- .bbp-reply-author -->

	<div class="bbp-reply-content">

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

		<?php bbp_reply_content(); ?>

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

	</div><!-- .bbp-reply-content -->

</div><!-- .reply -->
</div>

<div class='rew-spacer'><p/> </div>

Then put this 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

Finally in your theme’s custom css area put

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies {
border : none ;
}		

.rew-border {
border: 1px solid #eee;
}		

[wreckcox]

body.reply #bbpress-forums div.reply, #bbpress-forums .bbp-replies div.topic, #bbpress-forums .bbp-replies div.reply {
margin: 0px 0px 40px 0px;
}
This did the work. Thank you.

Hello, everyone. Please, let me know if I should report this anywhere else.

I’ve discovered an issue with having bbp_pre_get_posts_normalize_forum_visibility function attached to pre_get_posts action. It’s messing up a query from All in One SEO’s Sitemap plugin, which is for getting all the posts for its Sitemap generation, making it return only bbPress topics, when the query was asking for posts from several post types (not only forum topics).

The reason is the meta_query that bbp_pre_get_posts_normalize_forum_visibility is adding to the query, in order to exclude private forums. Which ends up making the query to only return posts of type ‘topic’.

The condition it adds should end up turning into a SQL query that doesn’t force all posts to require a meta key ‘bbp_forum_id’. So it should be done in a way that it only limits the posts with that meta key to those that meet the condition, but allows posts without that meta key.

[pnccontact]

Well, another question.
I have users in double like:
imported-fdsfsdf(at)freee.com
fdsfsdf(at)freee.com

PS: sorry for my english, I am french…
