I use this to change default Profile URL (author link) to my custom Profile Page URL.

How can I also change mention links to my custom profile page url?

(bbpress 2.6 RC5)

[wpturk]

I use the latest bbpress 2.6 RC5. The new feature mention is not working properly.

Whenever a user has email address in the text body, the domain after “@” is considered as mention.

ex: in text body info @ test.com (I use with space because the same case here in forum)

changes to:

@test.com”>info @test.com

and @test is clickable as a mention.

It was necessary create file bbpress.php, copy the files for folder(in my theme) bbpress: content-search, loop-search and pagination-search.

it integrates to buddypress I believe

It could be coded, but it would be an hours work and several calls. A plugin that relies on bbpress should check that when loaded, but whilst I know most of mine do, I couldn’t swear that they all do !!

Hello,
I’m trying to rename the current roles as well as ADD new roles. When I add the filter to change the current role name, it doesn’t add the new user role I’ve added. If I remove that code, then the new user role shows up.

This is the code I’m using.

//BBpress Custom Roles // 
function add_new_roles( $bbp_roles )
{
    /* Add a role called tutor */
    $bbp_roles['bbp_lead'] = array(
        'name' => 'Community Lead',
        'capabilities' => custom_capabilities( 'bbp_lead' )
        );
 
    return $bbp_roles;
}
 
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_new_roles', 1 );
 
function add_role_caps_filter( $caps, $role )
{
    /* Only filter for roles we are interested in! */
    if( $role == 'bbp_lead' )
        $caps = custom_capabilities( $role );
 
    return $caps;
}
 
add_filter( 'bbp_get_caps_for_role', 'add_role_caps_filter', 10, 2 );
 
function custom_capabilities( $role )
{
    switch ( $role )
    {
 
        /* Capabilities for 'tutor' role */
        case 'bbp_lead':
            return array(
                // Primary caps
                'spectate'              => true,
                'participate'           => true,

would love to find the time to write it!!

Like all open software bbpress relies on users to make it successful, and I’m not a bbpress author, just a user who got into it, and I wrote much of the ‘getting started’ guide as I installed my first bbpress site.

If you want to help, then as above the key start point is the templates. Mapping these into a user understandable chart would be a great start, so go to

bbpress/templates/default/bbress/content-archive-forum.php
This is the first template called, and all the functions and templates you want to use will cascade from here.

Bump. Would love an actually complete codex to help guide theme development.

Hi there,
the issue here is that I have several bbpress add-on plugins. If I deactivate BBpress before deactivating all of the add-on plugins (e.g. google translate, AsynCRONous bbPress Subscriptions, bbpress Toolkit etc) the website crashes. If I deactivate all of them first, then no problem.
Is there is simple fix “if” statement that i can add to my functions.php file, whereby “if” Bbpress plugin is inactive, also make the following plugins inactive?
Apart from that, this plugin is great.
Thx

[Robin W]

bbpress doesn’t have a signature field. Are you using another plugin to do this ?

[TechHaus]

Thank you @robin-w! So the function I linked to activated the feature, and then I was able to copy the content-single-topic-lead.php into a bbpress folder in my theme, and edit it a bit like in your link. Feeling good about it.

I do have a question though, if anyone can help me figure this out (i’m new to php and am not familiar with the syntax). In the file https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/buddypress.org/public_html/wp-content/themes/bb-base/bbpress/loop-single-topic.php , on line 73, what this mean:

`<?php bbp_show_lead_topic() ? bbp_topic_reply_count() : bbp_topic_post_count(); ?>’

That’s one of the few places I see the function called at all in the templates they edited. Still digging and learning. Thanks for any help or ideas.

Hi, I am using bbPress 2.5 here: https://discusspf.com/community/

My problem is occurring as follows: I have the forum set up so it displays the recent topics as a shortcode on a page for the forum. This works fine for me (keymaster) and displays a create topic box at the bottom of the forum. However, for normal users it displays that they cannot create topics on the forum index, but when they navigate to a particular forum area they are able to create topics then. What is causing this issue and how might I fix it?

Thanks in advance.

[Robin W]

the bbpress theme is here

[TechHaus]

Ok, found this… still digging…

bbp_show_lead_topic

[Robin W]

bbpress changed from sending individual subscription updates to sending a bulk one, by sending an email to no-reply@site-name and then bcc’ing in all the people due to get an email.

This is why you are seeing this.

[kais12]

Hi

I recently imported a huge SMF into bbpress 2.6 RC 5.
It was faster than 2.5.x and even 2.6 beta .

Now i am facing a huge issue of misplacement of replies and users wrongly linked to replies. I am trying to run Recalculate position of each reply in each topic since past few hours and all i get is following error mesaged Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 73400320) (tried to allocate 200704 bytes)

I have edited the PHP.in and put in highest values i could think of .

Can someone please help me here

@stephen_edgar says if it timesout and we re-run it , it starts from the index wher it had stopped. Is it so ?

Regards
Kais

[Robin W]

It wouldn’t be the same ticket thread. Perhaps I’m not explaining myself clearly.

The previous comment was spam promoting a dentist site which I have deleted, so ignore that.

On private groups.

You would set up a group say called ‘users’

You would set up two forums – one public where public posts can be posted as per standard bbpress, and then one that belongs to the private group ‘users’ which you set up above.

Users are joined to users group either manually or by default.

You then enable topic permissions opn the private forum, and set the topic permisisons for that group to Create/edit OWN topics. Users will only see their own topics and any replies posted.

If just keymasters are responding, then they will see all topics on that forum. If others will be responding, then set up another group and make them able to see the whole forum.

Hello!

We are looking to modify BBpress meaning:

– remove the possibility for anonymous users posting answers to questions.
– remove BBpress notices like ”You can publish HTML content” or ”You can use BBCodes to format your content”.
– remove the website field request when asking a question, along subject type and question status.
– add a name for the description field regarding the title of the subject.
– customize the right sidebar to include: add a question, search and categories of the forum.

We are using bbpress 2.5.14 and wordpress 4.7.9. Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you!

No worries–I am looking forward to a nice weekend myself. Here are some more, possibly useful, details:

I installed bbPress on another, far more generic, site and got the same behavior–bounced messages to no-reply@site-name if any user had subscribed to a forum or topic.

I installed the plugin “bbPress Custom Topic & Reply Notifications” by Pippin Williamson and got its customized notifications, but also the no-reply bounces.

I deactivated that and installed “bbPress Notify (No-Spam)” by Vinny Alves, which said it provided the ability to override bbPress’s default subscription functions. Using this plugin seems to have resolved the bounces.

So it would seem to be a problem with bbPress’s subscriptions functions, and not a conflict with some other plugin or some other site-specific oddity.

[andrew55]

I have a big decision to make regarding bbPress. I have an eCommerce site we are about to launch which uses WooCommerce, with about 70 plugins.

I could install bbPress (with all the plugins I need) in the single site as it is, but I’m concerned about having 80-90 total plugins in a single site (bbPress + Woo plugins).

Also, I’m wondering how all those bbPress plugins in the same site as Woo will effect performance. I’d really rather not slow the eCommerce down, or bbPress for that matter.

I know some plugins (scripts, etc) also load on every page/post even when they aren’t being used. I’ve seen and used methods to manage this, but it’s not a perfect science. So I might have bbPress scripts loading on Woo pages and vice versa. Of course the more scripts that load on a page, the slower that page becomes.

What I was considering was creating a multisite installation and installing bbPress in a separate sub site from Woo. This way, all the bbPress plugins and performance drain would be isolated more to that specific site.

Then again, I’m really not sure the best path to take. Any suggestions on where to go from here? Thanks for any help.

[discusspf]

My installation is here: https://discusspf.com/community/

My trouble is with font sizes. OP seems to be too small, all further replies are decent size and anything included in a quote is huge. Is there a way to change these just for the bbPress part of my theme? I have the ability to add custom CSS for bbPress but don’t know what code to add. Can someone please supply code which will make OP and quote text the same size as all the replies. Thanks a bunch in advance!

[bhammondCVL]

WordPress 4.9.4, bbPress 2.5.14

From topic subscriptions I’m getting bounced email messages that look like this:

———- Forwarded message ———-
From: [name-of-site] <noreply@[name-of-site].org>
To: noreply@[name-of-site].org
Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2018 19:14:35 +0000
Subject: …

You are receiving this email because you subscribed to a forum topic.
Login and visit the topic to unsubscribe from these emails.

They bounce, obviously, because they have the same From and To addresses. There is no user who has this address, obviously. The mail is being generated by PHP–that is, I’m not using any additional plugin to send mail.

Any ideas on what might be causing this, and how it might be resolved?

I’m sorry that I can’t link to the site, but it is an intranet, so not publicly available.

[w3215]

Thanks. Something that truly gave a clean interface (like gutenberg or medium.com as mentioned) would be ideal. But if there are not currently options for that for the bbpress text editor, are there options to improve the editor from the default?

For example, to make it comparable to the text editor for ‘Discourse’ forum sites? (like https://discuss.reactjs.org/ or https://discuss.atom.io/).

I have heard there may be a way to turn on the tinyMCE toolbar in bbpress, which is an improvement.

However, I’m new to wordpress, but that seems to normally go along with a text editor that gives the writer two less than ideal options: a (i) “visual” option with the tinyMCE (the problem being it strips away a lot of formatting–for example removing tabs if you paste code in) or (ii) the basic “text” option, which is not great for a general audience bc it requires the writer deal with stuff like tags and html-jargon. Its also confusing to give users two different options that seem to do the same thing but in slightly different ways.

So, if a Gutenberg-like experience is too much to ask right now, is there anything around that can give users the straightforward toolbar experience of the “Discourse” text editor?
