it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

I had been using that one, now I’m switching to the latest version of tinyMCE (https://www.tiny.cloud/get-tiny/) and I’ve been trying to make it do the same (enable HTML for it only).

Hello,

bbPress 2.6.9
WordPress 6.3.1

Screenshot of issue: https://imgur.com/a/DhxatVA

The text box is wider than the mobile screen and it doesn’t look quite right.

Very best,

Ally.

As an Update, I have found some really old information about this issue @netweb here:https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2198

And here: Editor width addressed in CSS at patch https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1933 down to 240 resolution. In some smartphones, only the text editor shows up by default.

My Redmi 9C uses a 20:9 aspect ratio screen (resolution is 720×1600).

[Robin W]

try this in the custom css of your theme

.bbpress div#ast-mobile-header.ast-mobile-header-wrap {
	display: none !important;
}

[ibnat]

As an update. Youtube videos embed fine in the block editor when creating a new page or post on the site. The issue seems to be just with BBpress and the create topic/Reply editor which uses TinyMCE?

It would be great to be able to watch embedded videos without having to click out to youtube etc.

Thanks in advance for any help or ideas.

I have asked this same question myself over the last few weeks as I am busy making my BBPress forum compatible and converted to a fully funcioning mobile app.

I decided to push ahead because the support forum of wordpress itself is running on the BBpress plugin and there seems to be no signs at all of it being switched to something else (as @robin-w says)

Whilst there are hundreds of plugins that are no longer maintained, the BBpress essential plugins very much are, and support for them is absolutely excellent. ( @amauric and @codejp3 ) 🙂

I believe that the future of niche forum websites like mine are in the mobile app direction with push notifications etc to users through their smart phones. WP and BBpress is lightweight enough to work fantastic on a mobile.

The three authors I mentioned earlier are great examples of why BBpress will carry on for the foreseable future no? Thanks guys for your continued help and support!

Hi all

(This only happens when viewing my BBpress forum on a smartphone.)

When viewing a forum and scrolling down to below the forum topics to the editor, the right hand side of TinyMCE editor is off the screen by a few pixels.

When viewing a topic the TinyMCE editor fits fine on my smartphone screen.

Is the width of TinyMCE adjustable anywhere or is there some CSS I can add to fix this?

WP version 6.3.1
BBPress version 2.6.9

[Robin W]

thanks.

1. This is the bbpress support site, you need to raise this with the buddypress support site

https://buddypress.org/support/

2. bbpress (and buddypress) simply use the wordpress login, so the simplest way is to use a plugin to do redirect such as

LoginWP (Formerly Peter's Login Redirect)

[ditout]

Hi,
Thank you for your reply,
1.it is title, I don’t know how to speak that,
it is an indication of the page, I want to put the Asian name to replace English name:

2.We can use the bbPress to create a sidebar for inscription, login…
I want to know whether I can redirect to a profil page ( Buddypress) after having filled the inscription ?
So that the users will fill their profil, I have a membership page, the users could contact each others.

Thanks a lot.

[ditout]

Hi,
I have 2 questions for the setup,
1. I will setup my site in Asian languages, Japanese and Chinese, can I put the titles in Asian languages on bbPress ? so that the users will understand.
2. I will setup the inscription/login side bar, how can I redirect after inscription to the profil page for my users to fill it ? because I will have a member page for the users to contact each others.
Thank you so much !

@robin-w let’s hope not, without you we are all lost 😀

The one key thing that BBpress lacks by default is image uploading in posta.

[ibnat]

Hello

When I post a link to a You tube video in a forum post there is no embedding. Instead there is a link to the video over at Youtube.

In forum settings I have the box ticked to embed.

An example is here: https://iberianatureforum.com/forums/topic/promo-video-for-25th-anniversary-of-cabaneros-national-park/

Thanks in advance for any help

(I am using latest versions of BBPress and WordPress)

[Robin W]

the title is put in by your theme.

Suggest you try method 2 in this (item 3) :

I am unsure what happened, but my elementor broke at some point. It stopped showing the edit with elementor, and I can’t find the link on the pages or anywhere to edit with elementor. I removed all plugins and found that the bbpress plugin is breaking it when I deactivate bbpress the elementor links and editor with the elementor button return. Any help is appreciated.

Hello,

bbPress 2.6.9
WordPress 6.3.1

I can disable the mobile header on my forum https://metpsy.com/forums/forum/metpsy-forum/ main page using Astra theme settings on the forum backend page, but topic pages (e.g. https://metpsy.com/forums/topic/welcome/) I’ve got no idea how to do. Is there a bbPress workaround?

Very best,

Ally.

[Frederic Pilon]

Thing is Robin they might update every once in a while, maybe, but even here; If it was not you there would be no replies from anybody close to bbPress on these forums.

[Robin W]

I am just a moderator here, and not a bbpress author.

The authors tend to release updates every few years, rather than more frequently.

My personal view is that you should consider bbpress to be a ‘mature’ product, ie any releases will be to fix issues rather than add functionality.

bbpress is written really well, and has loads of hooks. There are no show stopper bugs in it, it may throw a few deprecation notices (and these are very few at the moment), but WordPress recommends that you should not show error messages in live sites.

I currently have my test site running WordPress 6.3 and php 8.1 with no issues.

The only major issue with bbpress at the moment is that it does not work well with FSE themes.

However my bbp style pack plugin has fixes for this

bbp style pack

as well as block versions of the widgets and a ton of styling and functionality add-ons.

All plugins are subject to the authors commitment, and bbpress is no different.

The main WordPress support forums use bbpress, and it would be mega work to move those over to some other product.

But with open software you make your choices….

[Robin W]

these additional plugins will help

1. not 5 stars, but allows voting

bbPress Voting

2.

stats in WordPress are notoriously unreliable, I don’t know of a plugin that does this.

3.

Inline Image Upload for BBPress

[ditout]

Hi,
I want to set up bbPress on my site, I wish to know this forum, can I set up:
1. 5 stars satisfied points ?
2. statistic data to show how many users have read this article ?
3. can the users put photos or video on their articles ?
Thank you your replies.

[Robin W]

if it is the default bbpress one, then add this to your custom css

#mceu_12 {
	display: none;
}

otherwise I’d need a link to a live example on your site

I have installed the plugin Advanced Editor Tools but any changes I make in the layout of TinyMCE in the settings doesn’t seem to affect the layout of the editor in BBPress topic posts or replies. Its seems to only change the settings in the editor for WP posts and pages.

[ibnat]

Hi, I am trying to remove an image upload button that was placed on the TinyMCE reply editor by an image upload plugin. When I uninstalled the plugin the image on the editor has remained and is linkable to a broken page (obviously as the plugin has been removed). The topic on the plugins author page is here but we can’t seem to find a solution. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removed-plugin-but-image-add-icon-still-visible/

“This plugin enables the TinyMCE WYSIWYG editor for BBPress forum topics and replies and adds a button to the editor’s “Insert/edit image” dialog that allows forum users to upload images from their computer and insert them inline into their posts.”

Can anyone point me to a way to remove this image upload button or is there a way to edit the layout and options of the editor with a different plugin?

Thanks in advance

[Robin W]

ok, so yes you could change the default template for that page in bbpress, but your theme is not using that template, so that is pointless.

You need to amend the template your theme is using, so need to contact the theme support.
