Please make sure you have uploaded files to /wp-content/languages/bbpress/ of your WordPress installation. If the /wp-content/languages/ and /wp-content/languages/bbpress/ folders do not exist, create them.

Also please rename each file of the files to bbpress-language_COUNTRY.extension

eg. bbpress-plugin-pt-br.po to bbpress-pt_BR.po
and bbpress-plugin-pt-br.mo to bbpress-pt_BR.mo.
Note: Ensure you use the – and _ in the correct place per the above example.

[Vinod Dalvi]

To achieve this you have to translate bbPress in your language as described in the following page.

bbPress in Your Language

From memory if you are logged in then you should already be able to do so

see

Codex Standards & Guidelines

[Vinod Dalvi]

When reading bbPress documentation i found some issues and missing information in it so i tried twice to create support forum topic to notify you about this but the topic is not created.

May be because it is in under review.

I read information on this page https://codex.bbpress.org/participate-and-contribute/ to help improve bbPress documentation by requesting access.

@jjj, @netweb, @mercime or @robin-w Could you please grant me access so that i can help to improve it?

[Vinod Dalvi]

You can just hide it using below custom CSS code on your site as described here http://freewptp.com/how-to-use-custom-css-in-wordpress-site/

#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form label[for="bbp_anonymous_website"],
#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form #bbp_anonymous_website {
    display:none;
}

Or you can overwrite following bbPress template file in your child theme and remove website field code from it.

/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-anonymous.php

[Vinod Dalvi]

You can change it by adding following custom code in the functions.php file of your child theme.

function vvd_bbpress_translate_text( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
	if ( 'bbpress' === $domain && 'Voices' === trim($translated_text) ) {
		$translated_text = 'Voix';
	}
	return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'vvd_bbpress_translate_text', 20, 3 );

For info, I have already tried to find line 21 as mentioned here, but cant find it.

Hi

In the French version of bbpress (the latest version), I want to change the header “Participants” (it’s “Voices” in the English version) to “Voix”. Could someone tell me how to do that please ?

Now, I’ve spend a lot of time researching and trying different things from CSS to PHP and I’ve gone back removed all the changes because nothing has worked so far. And I wanted to get things ready for any suggestions you guys might be able to supply. I am using DIVI 3 theme and builder.

For info, I have removed the side bar from the forum, and that is the only customization of bbpress I’ve left in place. I used custom CSS i found on this forum.

I’d appreciate knowing what to change and were to change it. I’m a beginner so I’d need fairly basic instructions, but I know where to put CSS into the Divi theme, and I know how to go into the PHP and how to create a child theme.

thanks in advance
best regards
SP

Just tested it on my test site and it is working fine for me.

Please make sure you are using latest version of bbPress plugin.

This can be due to plugin conflict on your site so please try temporary deactivating all plugins except bbPress plugin and see whether everything works fine and then enable the plugins one by one to see which plugin is conflicting if any.

Could you please share me the page URL from your site where it is not working correctly so that i can troubleshoot it?

[jomo]

Well we’re all waiting for breaking news for bbPress release or rc4 but online timesheets it is not. And seeing as user onlinetimesheets’ system is built on Microsoft ASP.Net 4 it seems unlikely to make much use of bbPress..

Now, could we get the bbPress on wordpress.org to add the Plugin name (Forum title) to the email alerts? It’s tiring getting all the alerts with no context about which plugin they refer to.

Something like this should do it:

function add_the_plugin_name_please( $message, $reply_id, $topic_id ){
  $topic_title  = strip_tags( bbp_get_topic_title( $topic_id ) );
  $forum_title = bbp_get_topic_forum_title($topic_id);

  $messageheader = sprintf( __( 'New post in Forum "%1$s", Topic "%2$s".', 'wordpress-org' ),
    $forum_title,
    $topic_title
  );
  $messagefooter .= "\r\n" . "\r\n" . __('Thankyou for participating on wordpress.org', 'wordpress-org' );
    
  return $messageheader . "\r\n" . "\r\n" . $message . "\r\n" . $messagefooter;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_subscription_mail_message', 'add_the_plugin_name_please', 10, 3);

[Robin W]

Is this going to conflict with some of the bbPress swnippets I have already implemented. I.e. Login/logout redirection, etc. Or will it conflict with UAM for access to forums.

no idea – you’ll need to test this 🙂

[Robin W]

can only give you the area for html

so two files

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-topic.php
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-reply.php

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Make a copy of the two files above, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/bbpress/form-topic.php
and
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/bbpress/form-reply.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this

Suggest your html/php needs to replace

<?php bbp_the_content( array( 'context' => 'reply' ) ); ?>

but you’ll need to work out exactly how yourself !!

In the spirit of sharing stuff, if you work it out, please post the solution to this thread !!

Do I need to make new groups within your plugin as well or can I use the existing with the enable topics permission?

[semmick726]

I thought perhaps we were dealing with a configuration or rights assignment issue when trying to implement BBPress with LearnDash, but I get the same result using the single forum shortcode on a basic page on our site with no content protection.

Test Forum

[michaellanfield]

Hello. My new site is not up yet, so I cannot give a link, however, what I would like to know is that on the main page of the bbpress forum, the category name and description for all the forum, has too much space in between them. I would like to reduce the spacing in between all category names/description. How to do this?

When you look at the screenshot of the website page in particular, you will notice the spacing is large between New and Updates and the description and also between the other categories and their description. I want to be able to see more categories on the page and compact the line spacing. Thank you.

Hi,

I’m the author of the 404page plugin, the most used plugin to create custom 404 error pages. My plugin uses the 404_template filter. Due to a user’s request I found out that this hook fires incorrectly in a particular case caused by bbPress. Of course I can bypass the problem but I wonder if you’d like to fix it because it is a bbPress issue.

On showing the profile page of a single member bbPress changes the main query to get the topics created by that member. This causes $wp_query->is_404 is set to true because no posts are found. This does not affect bbPress because $wp_query->bbp_is_single_user is set to true which causes the bbPress template loader to load the suitable template file.

But at the same time the WP core template loader fires the 404_template filter hook. This is fallacious because there is no 404 error.

I could fix that in my plugin by checking $wp_query->bbp_is_single_user but this would only bypass the problem. It is definitely wrong the 404_template hook fires in that case.

So I think it would be a good idea to correct this in bbPress. You’d only have to set $wp_query->is_404 to false after the main query was executed in case $wp_query->bbp_is_single_user is true.

In my opinion the bbp_template_redirect hook would be the right place to do that. Adding one more small function to this hook solves the issue.

I’m curious about your response.

Regards,
Peter

Hi There,

Creating a new topic should send email notifications to both user and admin is it possible bbpress ?
is it possible to show subscript on the dashboard menu item “topics” as it shows for the comments or woocommerce orders (pelase check screenshot https://www.screencast.com/t/OSu2bDERbF ).

Thanks!

[dowarren]

Hey.

I am using bbPress 2.5.12 and I would like to use it as a Bulletin Board type functionality where Users can create topics in different forums, but cannot reply to those topics. It is kind of like a “Want Ads”/Read Only. The user can Edit/delete their own topic.

I have tried a few things but do not have a permanent solution. If I close the forum, then no new topics can be created.

Basically, I need the users to be able to create topics, but remove the “Reply To” section on all.

I am currently using a local copy of the website, so cannot share online. If this poses an issue, I could create some temp space to put it up.

Hi,
This is WP 4.8.1 with bbP 2.6rc3 (was hoping this corrected it, was running 2.5.13 all the time). THE CORE from ThemeFurse is running an Lifter LMS is doing the Site-Protection.
That’s the entrance https://youngstars.leben-fuehren.de/wp-login.php and “demouser” is username and password.
I can see the forums (/foren/) and the topics (e.g. “Mastermind”) /foren/forum/masterminds/. The Topics headline have a Link to the topic itself, e.G.: /foren/topic/test-topic/
BUT when I click on the headline, the topic doesn’t open. It goes back to the topics list /foren/forum/masterminds/.
I can create answers in the backend. But the frontend doesn’t show any.

• I did deactivate all Plugins -> no change
• I went back to twenteseventeen -> no change
• I fiddled around with the permalinks ->no change
• I repaired bbPress and BuddyPress several times -> no change

Funnily enough: [bbp-single-topic id=2279] works. I don’t get it and start to panic here, I guess. Any idea welcome!
Thanks

I am using the latest version of WordPress and BBPress and Divi theme with the Membership works plugin.
When you click on a topic the “feed” goes out of the theme and there is no way to reply. I have turned off most plugins to see if that was the conflict.

I have also tried bbpress on a different divi themed site and it worked right away.

Thanks

[rotlichtluzern]

gee Robin, thank you!

i just moved the site from shared hosting to a VPS and didn’t notice that only PHP 7.1 was activated. added 5.6 to the vps, activated it on the site and reuploaded the official current release of bbpress. all peachy now.

again, thanks, especially for the superquick answer, it’s very apreciated!

[Robin W]

Suspect you are using php 7.1
so 3 fixes
1. downgrade to a lesser version of php
2. upgrade to bbpress 2.6rc3
3. in bbpress 2.5.13 in includes/forums/functions.php
change line 1851 from
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’ );
to
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’, array() );
and change line 1796 from
$post_stati = $posts_query->get( ‘post_status’ );

to

$post_stati = $posts_query->get( ‘post_status’ );
if (!is_array($post_stati)){
$post_stati = array($post_stati);
}
