ok, so are you still using a bbpress.php file in your child theme?
Hi moderator,
I think I should have searched a bit more narrow down. This topic is much related to this :
how to create dynamic reply-box
So I like to remove this, can you please do ?
Am I missing something or does bbPress not have the capability of moving a reply in a topic to create a new topic elsewhere?
I have some people who post/reply in the wrong topic, so I want to move that reply to a new topic (which I would make from doing that action). In the Kunena forum (for Joomla), this is one of admin moderator options…to move a single reply, or even a topic, to a new location while creating a new topic with that original reply. In doing so, it leaves no trace in the previous topic.
I have a couple of issues with my dashboard widget “Right now on forums”:
1 – It is not displaying the links to topics, replies, or tags. The link is there but it is empty.
2 – The count of forums excludes my single “hidden” (set to private) forum. As “private” means show only to registered users I don’t see why it would be excluded for the dashboard.
Attached image shows what I mean.
I have run the repair tool (all options) but no change.
(WordPress 4.7.2; bbPress 2.5.12-6148)

What I ve done:
1. installed bbpress plugin
2. added a filter bbp_show_lead_topic to do lead topic
3. added a filter bbp_has_replies_query to do DESC order
4. created a forum
5. created a topic under the forum
6. created a reply to the lead topic
7. repeatd 6. a couple of times by clicking Reply of topic-admin-links
8. created a reply to one of the replies created from 7., i.e. threaded reply.
9. got out of the forum, and revisited the forum, and clicked the topic to do a reply
a. clicked a link which is not the one of topic-admin-links, but reply-admin-links
b. but changed mind to click the one of topic-admin-links to the lead topic (remember !! having clicked the reply-admin-links, not clicking send button)
c. put some words into editor and Send
d. the reply is under the reply which was clicked at a., not the lead topic
The Reply topic-admin-links has [reply] => <a href="#new-post" class="bbp-topic-reply-link">Reply</a>
and it is ok before any Reply of reply-admin-links is clicked.
href=”#new-post” is pointing correctly when no bbp_reply_to is, i.e. no reply of reply-admin-links was clicked.
The Reply of reply-admin-links has `[reply] => <a href=”/forums/topic/test-topic1/?bbp_reply_to=18&_wpnonce=1d17517a0b#new-post” class=”bbp-reply-to-link”
onclick=”return addReply.moveForm(‘post-18′,’18’,’new-reply-8′,’8′);”>Reply</a>`
where 8 is the lead topic id, 18 is reply id
As far as reply-admin-links was clicked, href=”#new-post” of the Reply of topic-admin-links is meaning /forums/topic/test-topic1/?bbp_reply_to=18&_wpnonce=1d17517a0b#new-post
I don’t know whether it is the way supposed to be.
Or did I miss anything ?
Hi, I would like to be able to block all users except admin to posts links url in a topic, a posts or even a reply. I’ve tryed this, the only one that I found: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-to-prevent-users-from-posting-url-links/
remove_filter( ‘bbp_get_reply_content’, ‘bbp_make_clickable’, 4 );
remove_filter( ‘bbp_get_topic_content’, ‘bbp_make_clickable’, 4 );
and this doesn’t seem to work when I add thoses lines in my functions php theme.
Anybody have an idea on how to make this works?
Thanks you
Maxime
@padrenola I’ve added a reply on your ticket, but I wanted to post here as well.
The issue you are seeing is related to your theme, so you will want to get in touch with their support to get an official fix. You can send them to the ticket for background. https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3059
In the meantime, adding the below code to the bottom of your theme’s/child theme’s functions.php file should give you some relief.
remove_filter( 'bbp_get_forum_topic_count_int', 'x_bbpress_filter_forum_topic_count' );
remove_filter( 'bbp_get_forum_reply_count_int', 'x_bbpress_filter_forum_reply_count' );
remove_filter( 'bbp_get_forum_post_count_int', 'x_bbpress_filter_forum_post_count' );
Hy!
I’m use the UltimateMember plugin for login, registration and i use the (bbPress) login widget, in the forum sidebar.
How can i do that:
When user try to login, but it’s not completed, redirect the user costum url?
My problem opinion is the Ultimatemember recaptcha plugin dont add captcha for the (bbPress) login widget.
I am planning to use bbPress plugin for WordPress. My current forums is built using https://invisionpower.com/ IPS. Is there any way to migrate forums data from IPS to bbPress?
Hi Support,
I am not able to view my topics contents on forum section but I can view replies.
Below are my version detail :
WordPress 4.7.2
bbpress Version 2.5.12

Please do the needful at the earliest.

Hello I use gd-bbpress plugin for the option for members to upload images from their computer, while that works gifs will not. It will only show the first image and will not run the sequence. Is there something I’m missing or a way to address this?
I went the trac ticket route – someone sent me some replies that basically said “that shouldn’t happen.” However, I am still experiencing these warning messages:
Warning: A non-numeric value encountered in /home/sndg2301/public_html/2017/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/functions.php on line 1132
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/sndg2301/public_html/2017/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/functions.php:1132) in /home/sndg2301/public_html/2017/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1179
Warning: A non-numeric value encountered in /home/sndg2301/public_html/2017/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/template.php on line 1441
there isnt an option within bbpress to do it but if you install https://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-default-email-notification-settings-control/ this and modify everyone to ahve no notifications it seems to stop it.
The notificatiosn are still a bit of a mystery to me tbh. they seem to be queued somewhere but i have not had time to look into it. installign that plugin and deactivating all notifications worked for me.
Hi,
1.- What you mean with overlap? Do you want to put together both fields? Debates are topics, and Publications are topics and replies.
2.- You can translate bbPress using pod files:
bbPress in Your Language
Also, you can visit this page about bbPress in Spanish
Suerte!
Thanks for the answer @benklocek
I am still looking for the right code, I will post here once I got it 😉
I was thinking what could be the best way…
1.-Create a custom role and then use the name of role to translate it. (I am doing this.)
2.-Give to spectator role the participant´s capabilities and then translate it.
I need two participant roles, with differents name. Just to make more fun the forum style. Just like the ticket about “Add CSS class for user roles in topics and replies”.

Hi,
According to codex https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/before-installing/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/ Moderators should be able to publish and edit forums.
This seems to be a bug cause they can’t. I’ve been reading a bunch of topics now and it seems like this has been a bug for more than FOUR YEARS. Why hasn’t codex been updated??
I’ve seen hints pointing out that moderators can actualy publish forums on front end with shortcode [bbp-forum-form] – this works but they can still not edit forums.
I’ve tried to edit the keymaster role and disable access to global forum settings but this didn’t work. There are a bunch of capabilities for every single action of bbpress. And then there is on huge capability for a monster amount of actions. This capability is keep_gate. When I disabled that for the keymaster role I managed to disable acces to global forum settings but acces to publish and edit forums was also disabled.
I want to achieve a role that has ALL the keymaster capabilities except from access to admin pages bbpress (global forum settings) and bbp-repair.
Is there anyway to do this?
Thanks!
Hello, I have been playing with the bbpress plugins in locahost, all good except for the following:
1.- Overlap of the fields DEBATES and PUBLICATIONS in the page of forum
2.- How to modify the texts of the fomulario beginning of section of forum, Example:
Remind me to change it by Remember my password
Registration modified by Register account
Password lost by Restore password.
Thank you for your help in correcting the solution.
regards
Hello Robin,
Sorry, I got your email only this afternoon due to a problem with my email…
The bbpress.php file is located in :
www/wp-content/twentyseventeen/bbpress.php
I also put a copy in the child theme folder I’ve created here :
www/wp-content/twentyseventeen/childtheme/bbpress.php
Regards,
Philippe
@jpvanmuijen I started looking at how bbPress works under the hood just recently, so I’m learning these things just by looking into the code and trying to guess. I’m glad I didn’t give a wrong hint 🙂
I’m not sure if there’s any higher-level logic wrapping this in bbPress functions, though; any experienced bbPress guy is more than welcome to expand on this: I’d be happy to know if there’s a better way.
Hopefully, with the REST API this sort of tasks will become pretty straight forward 🙂
Hi, thanks for your reply but it did not work for me. I have only activated the pluguin bbpress and I activated the theme twentyfifteen.
Any other options? I have also proven it with a clean wordpress install. 🙁
Hi everybody,
I was actually starting a topic about this, a few days ago, but my post contains a bunch of links (more than 3) to help contextualize the discussion and it’s still pending approval.
If moderators can help with that, the link to the topic is:
https://bbpress.org/?post_type=topic&p=181440
(I hope it’s not a problem to link it here; in case, feel free to delete or edit this reply)
I was trying to start writing a first version of a REST API too, as I missed the latest posts by Pascal. Also, I looked for existing code here:
https://github.com/ePascalC/bbp-API
but found only empty files. Am I missing something?
Anyway, I downladed the plugin and checked the code there.
Mine differs a bit as I was using BP-REST as a starter: I saw they had an extensive discussion about how to frame the whole work and structure it for the longer term, so I thought it was a good idea to take that into consideration.
If you think we might join efforts on this, let me know; I have limited time to invest on this but I’d be pleased to give my contribution whenever I can.
Cheers,

Hi,
I just transferred my phpbb forum to bbpress. The conversion went well, but I can’t figure out how to add the login option.
Site is here:
Trouble Every Day
I added Widget Logic and added the login and search widgets into the subsidiary, but nothing is showing up.
Any help would be much appreciated!
sorry, missed that you were using wp tweaks which adds this sidebar. This plugin has no support, and doesn’t work with several themes by the look of it.
suggest you try
https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/
the logic for forum pages is
is_bbpress()
for a widget to only show on forum pages
and to exclude from forum pages is
!is_bbpress()
