I seem to have an error with the page previews as you can see over here. As you can see in the first reply in this link, page preview for WP pages works fine, the problem only occurs with BBpress related urls (second post). In the image below I marked it with red:

When I disable the GP Premium plugin the preview dissapears and it only shows the title as an url inside a blockquote. BUT looking at the source code the wrong preview is still there. Changing class wp-embedded-content position: absolute; to position: relative; makes it visable again.

Disabling all plugins, switching to another theme or deleting all custom css is of no influence. WordPress and all plugins are up to date.

What is the best support ticket plugin or service available for WordPress that integrates well with bbPress

[bamadale]

THANK YOU for this post!

I cannot remember if this defaults to both being enable at the same time, but if they are, bbPress should consider adding some notes about this in the Settings.

Thanks again! Dale

Hi,

I added Customfields to BBpress reply form by this code:

//Input on BBP reply form
function bbp_extra_reply_fields() {
$custom = get_post_meta( bbp_get_reply_id(), 'bbp_custom', true);
echo '<fieldset class="bbp-form bbp-form-add">';
echo "<p><input id='bbp_reply_custom' type='text' name='bbp_custom' value='".$custom."'></p>";
echo '</fieldset>';
}
add_action ( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_form_content', 'bbp_extra_reply_fields');

//Register to Detabase
add_action( 'bbp_new_reply', 'bbp_save_reply_extra_fields', 10, 1 );
add_action( 'bbp_edit_reply', 'bbp_save_reply_extra_fields', 10, 1 );
function bbp_save_reply_extra_fields( $reply_id ) {
if (isset($_POST) && $_POST['bbp_custom']!='') {
update_post_meta( $reply_id, 'bbp_custom', $_POST['bbp_custom'] );
}
}

//Output to BBP reply
function inputBBPreply_outputBBPreply() {
$reply_id = bbp_get_reply_id();
$reply_custom = get_post_meta( $reply_id, 'reply_custom', true);
return '<div>'.$reply_custom.'</div>';
}

//Output to Buddypress activity
function inputBBPreply_outputBPactivity() {
//What should I write?
}

But this code dose not show at BuddyPress activity.

What should I write?

Thanks

I just started using bbpress for the first time.
i created one category and a post under it. i also made 2 posts without putting under any category.
on the forum main page only the category i created is visible.
where are the posts i created without assigning category? how can i see them?
and later can i assign them a category? how?

Just an update, I was able to successfully import a PHPBB 3.22 database into Bbpress, including users. I hope to try it again with a bigger database, but so far, so good.

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

Ahoy,
I am using

bbPress 2.5.14-6684
BuddyPress 3.1.0
bbp style pack 3.9.6
WordPress 4.9.8
running Bento (Child) theme
on this page bomb.bio/forum

I am having a problem with the insert/edit image button (in the text version the img button) not working. Image links added this way do not display.
Posting the same link without the tag automaticaly added when using this button works fine as long as they are in a new line.

Does anyone have any idea how I can get this to work? Even removing the misleading button or changing the button functionality so it wont add the tag which seems to make the link not work would be better than the current situation.

I can’t code. I am only able to copy paste and to some degree alter code that i am given. I do have a working child theme if that helps.

Thank you very much!!!
Tim

I am getting a 404 error on all of my forum reply RSS feeds like this one: https://appletoolbox.com/forums/reply/reply-to-ipod-setting/feed/ and I am not sure why.

My normal topic RSS feeds work just fine: https://appletoolbox.com/forums/topic/ipod-setting/feed/

Is there any way to fix these 404 errors OR is there a way to disable RSS feeds for the replies and/or bbpress as a whole?

Thank you in advance for any guidance!

[Robin W]

bbpress just uses wordpress registration, so this is not really a bbpress issue.

I’d look at what registration plugins you may have running

[macsgv]

Solved 🙂 had a display: none;

#bbpress-forums .bbp-user-edit, .bSe h3 {
display: none;
}

[Helmuts]

A quick update – ..this topic ranks in the top positions of Google on these keywords and needs updating.

My suggestion: set up plugin “bbPress Advanced Statistics” https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-improved-statistics-users-online/

and use the shortcode: [bbpas-activity] (you have to enable it first in settings under “extra” tab”

—

Sample (latest forum posts): https://www.lustjobs.com/latest-posts-custom-forum-view/

There are 2 bbcodes on this page:
[bbp-topic-index]
[bbpas-activity]

—

as for the default bb code: you have to use use [bbp-stats] not [bbp-statistics]

Hi bbpress

I want to escape html in topic and reply output, but I want to Embede media.

REPLACED this code which you can find inside[bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-single-topic-lead.php] file, opening via the editor.
<?php bbp_topic_content(); ?>
WITH THIS CODE

<?php
global $wp_embed;
$inputTxt = bbp_get_topic_content();
$escTxt = esc_html( $inputTxt );
echo '<div class="test">'.$wp_embed->run_shortcode( '[embed]' . $escTxt . '[/embed]' ).'</div>';
?>

But I can not it.

How do I write it?

[james4477]

I have been looking through he forums, google and others but most answers I have found are for old outdated plugins, broken links and so on unless I have missed anything.

Having installed bbpress I’m looking for a working solution to simply add an “accept terms and conditions” checkbox to the bbpress registration page.

Custom Capabilities

[jarhead33127]

thanks anyway.

I find it a pity that on a forum like bbpress we can not use and modify our roles on the forum part by adding and edit some.

If anyone has any info or help to integrate 1 additional role with the same rights as participant I am a taker.

possibly a conflict, or maybe your site has been hacked.

is this just one username or all ?

Hello,

Currently bbpress uses predefined roles. I want to edit and / or edit the roles to add those who will have the same ability to read or write but with a different name and that I can say that such user belongs to this category.

How can I do it because I can not find any plugin to add categories in bbpress.

Thank you

[akgt]

Thanks Robin, If it wont make any difference to speed and have less issues.

Hi Milan considering all the features are available for free in other plugins I dont think GD bbPress Toolbox Pro Is a good option the price is really high for what it is, you should add more options in the free model and drop the price on the pro.

I also don’t think this is a good way to push your product on people you should sometime try and help it topic it will work better IMO.

[Milan Petrovic]

bbPress has a login and registration widget include to use in the sidebar. It also has shortcodes to embed these forms into pages, so you can use that to make your login/register page and style it using CSS.

[Milan Petrovic]

Most of these features are part of my plugin GD bbPress Toolbox Pro. The plugin is optimized for low memory use and speed, so it will add a lot of standard forum features, with very little overhead. If you are interested, check it out here: https://plugins.dev4press.com/gd-bbpress-toolbox/.

Putting a lot of features (especially complex ones) into the fucntions.php file is a very bad idea. Functions file is made to be used by the theme, but over years, it is used for all sorts of things that are not theme related. It is nightmare to maintain or to transfer to new theme.

The translations are handled at https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress/stable/es/default, you should be able to search for the string and suggest a new translation

[mrkoki10]

use bbpress and WPML on this site. What we did was to setup 2 different forums, one for each language.
Then from the english menu we link to the english forum and from the spanish menu we link to the spanish forum.
It works fine with no changes made to bbpress.

Let me explain that you can see the same forum in different languages just by changing the URL. For example, you can see this same forum in english or spanish
