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.

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)

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.

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.

[Philippe Roussel]

I use the GD Quantum Theme Pro for bbPress plugin for the bbPress layout and Paidmemberships Pro for my membership website. Even after deactivating both, there is still the Forum, Topics, Posts, and Last Post bar appearing in bbPress, which seems all but normal to me: https://postimg.cc/wR1SkHWY

My question is: Can I change “Forum” in that bar to something else?

[Robin W]

so which method are you using in item 3 of this

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

[newtech1]

I found these two different codes that is supposeto what I want (I do not want moderator or keymaster roles shown in forntend), but when I insert either in the bbpress functions.php page nothing happens.

function hide_role ($args) {
$args['show_role'] = false ;
Return $args ;
}
add_filter ('bbp_before_get_reply_author_link_parse_args', 'hide_role') ;

function role_show () {
$displayed_user = bbp_get_reply_author_id() ;
$role = bbp_get_user_role( $displayed_user);
if ( bbp_is_user_keymaster($displayed_user) ||$role == 'bbp_moderator') $args['show_role'] = true ;
else $args['show_role'] = false ;
return $args ;
}
add_filter ('bbp_before_get_reply_author_link_parse_args', 'role_show' );

I also do not want IP address shown for anyone on the frontend. (Yes even for moderators ND KEYMASTERS)

I am moving mybb to bbpress although I am using hostinger server for both I am having issue importing maybe it is because of version but what happens is it get’s stuck on starting even though the forum is not really large I have tried again and again but no luck please help.

[mgilbrtsn1]

I’m just having problems with the bbpress widgets. For the forums and topics widget. When you add it, it looks like it adds all of the forums or topics. I only want maybe 10 to show. Otherwise If I create 100 forums (not the plan, just as an example), it’ll be a huge page if that many populate.

[Steve Manes]

Using globally-scoped CSS to style elements and override classes in WordPress, like the garden-variety style.css. It has nothing to do with bbstyle.

Ex.

#bbpress-forums {
font-size: 14px !important;
font-weight: 500 !important;
font-family: Roboto !important;
}
.bbpress-wrapper {
font-size: 14px !important;
font-weight: 500 !important;
font-family: Roboto !important;
}
.bbp-breadcrumb, .bbp-breadcrumb-home {
font-size: 14px !important;
font-family: Roboto !important;
}
.bbp-topic-permalink {
font-size: 15px !important;
font-weight: 500 !important;
}
.bbp-header, .bbp-reply-author {
background-color: #F8AA3C !important;
font-size: 16px !important;
font-family: Roboto !important;
}

‘global CSS overrides in BBPress.’ – sorry can you explain what you mean by that?

[Steve Manes]

I wasn’t referring to bbs style pack but to global CSS overrides in BBPress.

[Steve Manes]

BBPress with Inspector

[Steve Manes]

I’m guessing this forum software doesn’t like Dropbox image links.

[Robin W]

The answer is yes, but not for free, it would involve someone with coding knowledge using a bbpress hook to display.
