bbPress version: 2.5.11

Theme: Sydney
Hello everyone,
I am trying to change the size of my font in bbPress.I tried editing the bbpress.css file in: content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css
First I edited the Size of the bar that holds the topics, that worked perfectly.
Then I tried to edit the overall size of all fonts, so I changed:
#bbpress-forums {
font-size: 12px;
}
To:
#bbpress-forums {
font-size: 16px;
}
That didn’t change anything, so I tried to copy the bbpress.css to my themes directory as that’s what’s mentioned in the documentation. That neither changed anything, so now Im wondering what am I doing wrong?

In the meantime I migrated the second beta to my live site, http://www.starry-night.nl
I noticed (after the migration) that trashing a topic WITHOUT replies leads to my WP: Not Found page. So the handling could be improved there (or a bug entered the code).
When trashing a topic with replies BBPress jumps to what looks my first topic (BBPress) entries.
All and all, very nice upgrade, I can’t say the BBPress runs real faster (yet).
Can anyone help with correct code? I want complete user click edit profile will direct 100% go to custom page like normal without any issue
Issue 1:
First load edit page complete, after that 2 second, reload custom page
add_action( ‘bbp_user_edit_before’, ‘pb_custom_bbpress_edit_profile’ );
function pb_custom_bbpress_edit_profile(){
echo ‘<meta http-equiv=”Refresh” content=”0;url=http://example.com” />’;
}
Issue 2:
No work
add_filter( ‘bbp_pre_get_user_profile_url’, function() {
return get_bloginfo(‘example.com’).’/profile’;
});
Issue 3:
Still load edit profile link without load custom like. But given blank page, no error no warning, just empty link page
add_action( ‘bbp_user_edit_before’, ‘pb_custom_bbpress_edit_profile’ );
function pb_custom_bbpress_edit_profile(){
echo ‘‘;
}
==============
Also change the default url for favorites and subscriptions by doing this:
How can i correct it?
// Replace the default link for the favorites
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_favorites_permalink’, function() {
return get_bloginfo(‘example.com’).’/profile/forum-favorites’;
});
// Replace the default link for subscriptions
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_subscriptions_permalink’, function() {
return get_bloginfo(‘example.com’).’/profile/forum-subscriptions’;
});
=============
Thanks
The visual tab is the TinyMCE content window. When you have TinyMCE added it creates two tabs, Visual and Text(HTML), that users can switch between when adding a comment or reply.
I have had some other interesting developments. When a topic is open and reply is selected on a comment bbpress switches between the text and visual tabs being the default. If the text tab is defaulted the visual tab works when switched to, but if the visual tab is default then I run into the issue of users to being able to enter content. If I clear browser cache and server cache it defaults to the text tab but then after a little bit of use it starts defaulting to the visual tab. 🙁
Thanks for responding Robin!
you can set up sections using the alternate template in my style pack plugin. This will also let you change how bbpress is styled.

Hi,
I’ve installed bbpress and it works great. However, there is an issue I couldn’t figure it how to to solve yet.
I other forum bundles such as phpBB, we can create different sections (which is called categories there) which is different sections with their own farms. (pls look at this: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/style/prosilver/demo/3.1). As it is obvious in the link. it consists these sections: Forum, Normal category 1, Normal category 2 and …). However, i don’t know how to make it possible in bbpress.
My second question is about how to change bbpress theme?
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Wordpress 4.7 bbPress 2.5.12. Need to globally turn off email notifications – they are triggering spam and shutting down other needed WordPress member notifications.
Is there a way to let them subscribe and keep notifications in the forum? I can’t find any solutions or plugins to at least turn the email sending on and off while I even figure out a solution.
Thanks!
@robin-w thanks.
I started deactivating plugins and found the plugin that was conflicting with bbPress. It was Simple Intranet’s Simple Files plugin https://www.simpleintranet.org/simple-files/
Any idea on what we should do? We would like to use both plugins…
No thx, I started to love BBPress after some time 🙂 …
It’s not giving them moderation capabilities indeed. No popup in my env., only a textfield.I will start by disabling plugins, see if one is causing the problem.
Another small (or big issue 🙂 ).
When a topic or reply is viewed in the backend (edited) uploaded images are kind of big.

After hours of adjusting my bbpress child theme templates, and troubleshooting I found that the favourites and subscription items where still missing … after some more digging I found that:
<?php bbp_topic_subscription_link(); ?>
<?php bbp_user_favorites_link(); ?>
is missing in the loop-replies.php template file. I think this is a oversight? Adding the above two function calls to loop-replies.php make both options appear.
i’ve 50k users, 1100K posts
what is the way to do the upgrade?
i think,
-Delete Bbpress 2.6alpha
-install BBpress 2.6 beta2
And then?
@senatorman If you have more than 10,000 users, you’ll need to manually run favorites & subscriptions migrations from someplace you are safe doing so. Otherwise, totally safe.
If you’re running a multisite installation with bbPress running on all of them, the upgrade routine will attempt to run on all of them, so there’s that too (though it’s a very unlikely situation.)
Hi my website used bbpress like this box writting here. When i hover the icon appear mixed black+green, i tried to firebug here but i cannot find the correct code hover this website used for this icon.
Do you have any idea?
After switching site hosting from DReamhost shared servers to Dreampress my bbpress login is not working properly. You can fill out the username and password and after entering it just resets as if you never did anything. No errors.
my site is tyndale.edu
Under Current Students is Student Lounge and that is the main place we need this to work. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Richard
or when using buddypress:
BP Emails for BBP
would be nice if the function of this plugin could be integrated in BBPress.
Hello, I’m not sure if I found a bug or it is a feature. I’m using WordPress website as a forum. I have three private groups where each have access for different forums. Under one category I have four forums – one group has access to three forums and other to the last one. When someone will put a post to one of the forums, person from group which is not permitted to see the post, can see in freshness column, that someone has wrote something (still he is not able to see the post but in fact he can see the action). Two screenshots for picture the issue:
http://screenshot.sh/oBMycidMR5T2U
http://screenshot.sh/m9itlEWm5RUbW
On pictures I’m logged into account which don’t have permissions to view the forum, to which post has been added. I’ll be grateful for any hint how to solve this issue.
Wordpress version – 4.7.1
bbPress version – 2.5.12
bbP private group version – 3.2.10

That should be possible, yes.
There are a few ways you could go about this but the easiest is probably to make topic tags available to regular blog posts (that way, both can share the same taxonomy and you probably won’t need to worry about modifying the bbPress UI).
If you really need to, you could go a step further and a) remove ‘regular tags’ from blog posts and b) rename topic tags so they simply read as ‘tags’. This would result in you having one type of tag everywhere.
Bear in mind however that if you already have a bunch of existing topic and regular tags you would need to do some migration work unless you are prepared to lose one set.
Hello,
I would like to know if it would be possible to have WordPress and BBPress using the same tags?
I thank you in advance
Kind regards
4.7/4.7.1 and bbpress 2.5.12 work
If you have these then :
1. what php version are you running?
your host provider can answer this
or you can install
https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-php-version/
If it’s php7 then come back
otherwise
It could be a theme or plugin issue
Plugins
Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
Hi @barryhughes-1,
I have just checked your snippet and it just works great 🙂
So for fully public forums, this could be a quick win.
My only worry is that it does not take into account any bbPress ‘protection’ or ‘permission’. As it’s showing all forums, all topics, it’s not taking into account any specific bbPress settings or filters set. Some great plugins like bbP Private Groups is shielding data from being seen by unauthorised people and this should be extended to the API.
So I will try from a different angle. Authentication there will be my biggest nightmare probably 🙂
I have created my GitHub environment and plan to start putting the ideas on the wiki there: https://github.com/ePascalC/bbp-API/wiki
Please add your ideas !
Pascal.

@senatorman The improvements here on bbPress.org were not-insignificant.
We have 25k topics, 100k replies, and many more in spam/trash/drafts/revisions, amounting to around 180k total posts.
It’s not a huge-huge install, but not exactly small either.
