Hi again Robin,
Would the following changes regarding wrapper elements be of any help?

I’ve spent a lot of time preparing my website for launch, but I’ve encountered a few roadblocks that I can’t seem to overcome. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Forum URL: https://HeresOurSquirrel.com

Issues:

#1: Sometimes when I sign on, it fails and suggests the page is cached. However, I am not using any caching app.

#2: When registering… (I am using the Ultimate Members plugin — is there any other way to handle this?)

2a) emails aren’t being sent
2b) role isn’t being set (they’re participants, but the role isn’t being set to contributor)
2c) no users are being displayed under the “membership” menu item

#3: When signing on as the admin (“TheSquirrel”) I can’t get to the dashboard… when entering “https://www.heresoursquirrel.com/wp-admin” in the address bar and clicking enter, it just returns to the Forum.

I created two test accounts; One participant, and one keyholder, so if you would like to sign on as either, please DM me and I will provide the sign-on credentials.

Any other feedback would be greatly appreciated.

WordPress Current version: 6.4.3
bbPress Version 2.6.9

Thank you in advance!!

Hi

I am running BBPRESS and am looking to add a login link to Add login link to “You must be logged in to create new topics.” which appears at the bottom of Topics list when you are not logged in.

I have copied out the Forum-Topic.php file and it is located in my Themes BBPRESS folder.

Code in my Forum-Topic.php that I am looking to add to is ….

<div id=”no-topic-<?php bbp_forum_id(); ?>” class=”bbp-no-topic”>
<div class=”bbp-template-notice”>

• <?php is_user_logged_in()
  ? esc_html_e( ‘You cannot create new topics.’, ‘bbpress’ )
  : esc_html_e( ‘You must be logged in to create new topics.’, ‘bbpress’ );
  ?>

[Robin W]

the errors you are seeing are not bbpress widgets as far as I know, so I cannot help you in resolving those errors

for bbpress activity there are 2 legacy widgets, recent topics and recent replies

[Robin W]

ok, these don’t look like bbpress widgets – what are you trying to add?

[Robin W]

.bbpress .forum h4.author {
	display: none;
}

[Robin W]

add this to the additional css of your theme

body.forum-archive.bbpress h5.description p {
	display: none;
}

[sayhi2lonnie]

I want to get rid of “bbPress Forums”.

Please and thank you in advance!

[sayhi2lonnie]

How do I get rid of the line that I highlighted in yellow?

[webcreations907]

Wanted to share that I just finished my first bbPress theme with topics grid, it only uses bbPress and no buddypress. Profile pages have been completely customized to also include the topics grid.

Video when users are logged in

Theme Demo

Hopefully allowed to share this here. 🙂

[Robin W]

This is not related to bbpress, but to your youzify plugin

add this to your custom css

.youzify-bbp-topic-head {
	display: none;
}

[Robin W]

You may be using one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
install

bbp style pack

once activated, navigate to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.

In that tab, select

Enable Theme Support

and save

The forums should then display

If not, come back

[webcreations907]

I have some updated code for you to try, after installing that ACF plugin I realized it wasn’t saving the post meta(your custom fields) before the mail was being called.

So you’ll need to remove all the code previously listed including the first function, and try the below instead.

So all you should have added is the below in your code snippets plugin, or functions.php file.

if( function_exists( 'bbp_get_topic_post_type' ) ){
	function newtech2_bbpress_new_topic( $post_id, $post , $update, $post_before ){
	
		if ( defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) && DOING_AJAX ) return;

		if( !function_exists('bbp_get_topic_post_type') ){
			return;
		}

		if ( bbp_get_topic_post_type() !== $post->post_type || ! is_admin() ) {
			return;
		}

		if ( ! in_array( $post->post_status, [ 'private', 'publish' ] ) ) {
			return;
		}

		if( isset( $post_before->post_status ) && $post_before->post_status == 'draft' ){
			do_action( 'bbp_new_'.bbp_get_topic_post_type(), $post->ID , $post->post_parent, [] , $post->post_author );
		}
	}

	add_action( 'wp_after_insert_post', 'newtech2_bbpress_new_topic', 10, 4);
}

if( !function_exists('acf_email_bbp_subscription_mail') ){
	function acf_email_bbp_subscription_mail( $message, $topic_id, $forum_id, $user_id ) {
		if ( function_exists( 'get_field' ) && $topic_id != 0 ) {
			$afc_replace = array(
				'{catch_date_time}' => get_field( 'catch_date_time', $topic_id),
				'{anglers}'         => get_field( 'anglers', $topic_id )
				);

			$message = strtr( $message , $afc_replace);
		}

		return $message;
	}
	add_filter( 'bbp_forum_subscription_mail_message' , 'acf_email_bbp_subscription_mail', 100 , 4 );
}

You’ll just leave the below in your email template as before.

Catch Time: {catch_date_time}
Anglers: {anglers}

Hopefully that works out for you

[webcreations907]

They are not in a template but in a functions run through filters, so if you were using bbpress without any plugins for email templates then the function it’s being called from is bbp_notify_topic_subscribers and the filter to change the message is bbp_subscription_mail_message.

You can’t just added function with the same name, because it will cause your site to throw errors. But you can use the filter to change the message.

Are you using bbp style pack template? If so give me the field name of one of you custom ACF fields for when you create topics, and I’ll see if I can come up with something for you.

[newtech1]

Whoops. I am wrong. IT IS NOW WORKING! I need to test auto login and some other features since this is a private forum.

One issue that I do not think can be solved is I am using ACF plugin for Custom fields within topics. The email notification only has the topic text, it does not include any of the custom field results. Assume no one know how to resolve this. ACF plugin support will not help because they know nothing about bbpress.

The reason I have forum users posting in the backend is because I could never get the ACF plugin to work properly on the frontend.

Thanks!

[newtech1]

I put the following code within my theme’s functions.php file. I created a topic under the only forum I have on the site. I published it. Subscribers never received the notification. I checked emails log. It does not show any email being sent out. I am still wondering if the issue can be that if a topic is created within the backend instead of frontend could be causing the problem.

/**
*begin edit for subscribe notification to work
*/
if( function_exists( 'bbp_get_topic_post_type' ) ){
	function newtech1_bbpress_new_topic( $post ) {
		if( isset( $post->post_type ) && $post->post_type == bbp_get_topic_post_type() ){
			do_action( 'bbp_new_'.bbp_get_topic_post_type(), $post->ID , $post->post_parent, [] , $post->post_author );
		}
	}
	add_action(  'draft_to_publish' ,  'newtech1_bbpress_new_topic', 10 );
}
/**
*end edit for subscribe notification to work
*/

[webcreations907]

I don’t have a multi site set up with bbpress, but try the below and see if that works for you. Would have to add to the code snippets plugin or your theme’s functions.php file

if( !function_exists('mh_bbp_get_multi_site_total_users') ){
	function mh_bbp_get_multi_site_total_users( $count ) {
		if ( is_multisite() ) {
			$args = array(
				'blog_id'     => get_current_blog_id(),
				'fields'      => 'ID'
			);
			$count = count( (array) get_users( $args ) );
		}

		return (int) $count;
	}

	add_filter( 'bbp_get_total_users' , 'mh_bbp_get_multi_site_total_users', 100 );
}

[webcreations907]

Will try posting again..

You can try the below code, either add it to your theme’s functions.php file, or use the code snippets plugin.

Make sure to select your “Forum” when creating a topic and make sure the forum has subscribers to test it out on.

if( function_exists( 'bbp_get_topic_post_type' ) ){
	function newtech1_bbpress_new_topic( $post ) {
		if( isset( $post->post_type ) && $post->post_type == bbp_get_topic_post_type() ){
			do_action( 'bbp_new_'.bbp_get_topic_post_type(), $post->ID , $post->post_parent, [] , $post->post_author );
		}
	}
	add_action(  'draft_to_publish' ,  'newtech1_bbpress_new_topic', 10 );
}

Thanks for the feedback, @robin-w.

I noticed the anchor element with the class “bbp-glance-users” (from bbpress/includes/admin/metaboxes.php), which appears in the dashboard_right_now/”At a Glance” widget, is exclusively created by the bbPress plugin through the ‘dashboard_glance_items’ WordPress hook. For a multisite, the Users count is coming from the entire network.

I’ve traced the Users count number back to this function (from bbpress/includes/core/abstraction.php):
function bbp_get_total_users() {
$bbp_db = bbp_db();
$count = $bbp_db->get_var( “SELECT COUNT(ID) as c FROM {$bbp_db->users} WHERE user_status = ‘0’” );

// Filter & return
return (int) apply_filters( ‘bbp_get_total_users’, (int) $count );
}

And I was wondering if this could be updated to check if the site is a multisite and then select the Users based on the individual site ID.

Thanks,
Matthew Huntley

[Robin W]

this is WordPress related not bbpress, suggest you post to WordPress support

[matthewdhuntley]

Hi bbPress Folks,

I currently have a WordPress multisite installation with several individual sites. My WordPress version is 5.9.1 and the bbPress version is 2.6.9.

On any given individual site’s WP Dashboard, in the “dashboard_right_now”/”At a Glance” section, the number of users shown is reflective of the total number of users on the entire multisite network, as opposed to the total number of User on the individual site.

When it comes to multisite installations, can the output logic for this Users number be updated to reflect the number of Users for an individual site instead of the entire multisite network?

Thanks very much,
Matthew Huntley

[webcreations907]

You could try the below

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

[newtech1]

Finally getting back to this topic.
I have installed the ‘check and log email’ plugin. It shows all other plugins are sending out emails, but bbpress is not sending out emails to subscribers. What could be the issue.

The way we use bbpress is that the topics are posted via the backend. All users are posting as moderators. Would there be any reason that would be preventing email notifications from being sent. I do not see any reason that would be the case.

Bonjour,
Je dois transférer un forum bbpress de l’ancien site au nouveau site.
Dans l’ancien site, je n’ai pas les champs forum/sujets/réponses dans le dashboard WordPress, rien qui puisse m’amener dans les paramètres de bbpress (même en passant par la section extension, pas de lien réglage ou paramètre sur bbpress).
J’ai essayé un export/import par csv ça ne fonctionne pas mon forum reste vide sur le nouveau site.
J’ai essayé via le ftp idem.
Comment je peux faire pour récupérer les données du forum et les transférer dans le nouveau ?

En vous remerciant pour votre aide.

Custom code is required for displaying it in your forums. You should insert the provided code into either your functions.php file, bbpress-functions.php file, or a functionality plugin.
