Use this PHP code place it into a child theme functions.php file or use a plugin like functionality.

//display bbPress search form in search results
function rk_bbp_search_form_in_search_results(){

    if ( bbp_allow_search() && bbp_is_search_results() ) {
        ?>
        <div class="bbp-search-form">

            <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'search' ); ?>

        </div>
        <?php
    }
}

add_action( 'bbp_template_before_search', 'rk_bbp_search_form_in_search_results' );

Also look at this guide.

Thats a different forum plugin, but its just an unread posts feature that added the icons. Thre is an unread posts plugin for bbPress that can do the same thing if you use a similar image.

[Robkk]

You can use this class before another class in a reply to style the threads.

.bbp-threaded-replies

This class only appears if you enabled threaded replies.

https://codex.bbpress.org/features/reply-threading/

[Robkk]

You can disable threaded replies for now to fix the issue, there is currently an issue with some of the responsive styles and some markup that is broken somewhere while activating threaded replies.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2757

There is also a way to keep threaded replies and just changing your layout to a more mobile first layout, but threaded replies has some other issues that users might encounter like not having pagination.

[Robkk]

There are a few WordPress themes that you can use.

WP Knowledge Base

Stargazer Colloquium

Eighties

There are also other free themes that add functionality for bbPress here and there.

And there are a few good premium themes on themeforest.

[Robkk]

Actually bbPress does not have a “thank you page” instead I think it mostly piggybacks off of the default WordPress registration process and this issue you are talking about seems sort of common, but I think the whole frontend forms bbPress provides are either incomplete functionality or functionality that has broken along the way through upgrades in WordPress or something.

You do not necessarily have to use the frontend forms anyway, as all your users can just the default WordPress registration forms. Or use another plugin for now for frontend forms like Theme My Login.

[Robkk]

bbP toolkit has this feature too, if you do not want to use Robins plugin.

Also if you don’t care in paying, or don’t know already the premium version of GD bbPress tools called GD bbPress Toolbox has this feature too.

Before Posting

Yes these ^^

There is a plugin to disable across your whole site

https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-embeds/

We might add an option to the bbPress plugin to turn this off, or include this WordPress post oEMBED to the already present enable auto embed option.

In your post you said random images show up and some screen flicker? This makes it sound like a really bad bug, but thinking over it, is it just the icon images (share icon, WordPress logo, possibly a comment icon), and the post embed loading?

EDIT: Actually disabling auto-embed in your forums will also stop the WordPress post oEMBED feature.

[Robkk]

Yes for now threaded replies do not have pagination. There is a ticket introduce pagination, but it might have issues with other areas in bbPress, like private forum functionality.

I have found a rather nasty bug:

Details:

If you right click on the (reply #number) in the top right of a topic reply, you can then click to copy link address.

If you then paste this address into a new reply form and submit, the result is a screwed up blockquote of the Topic name and some random graphics.

It appears to be conflict between bbpress and the WordPress 4.4 content embed feature.

On my local host installation it also causes screen flicker in a loop.

I discovered this when trying to look for a quote replies solution.

Any chance we can do something to block/stop/patch it.

Kind Regards

Robin I have installed your OK FINAL ANSWER code listed above and all works as it should with one small BUG.

If I am logged in as admin and then click on your MY profile link I am not taken to my BBpress front end profile page but rather to an error page:
———-
Oops! That page can’t be found.

It looks like nothing was found at this location. Maybe try searching?
———-
Can anyone assist me to edit the code so when someone logged in as admin click on the my profile link they are taken to his or her BBpress front end profile.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Kind Regards

Max

bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

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.

[Robin W]

go to

Dashboard>user>all users

under

Users Add new

you’ll see the worpdress and bbpress roles listed in a single line

eg
All (1,201) | Administrator (2) | Editor (4) | Subscriber (1,050) | Keymaster (2) | Blocked (1) | Moderator (4) | Participant (1,181) | visitor (13)

Click on the ‘blocked’ link and you’ll get a filter which just shows these

I can confirm that if you install the above code in your functionality plugin and then use the
WP NICE SEARCH plugin set to all you can display your bbpress content in a nice ajax drop down in your sidebar.

Nice Search also has the option to limit the search parameters by configuring its shortcode:

[wpns_search_form only_search=”my_custom_post_type”]

I want to use this shortcode in the sidebars for my forum conent and limit the search to just Forums, Topics and Replies (no WP stuff included). However, I can not figure out what I should put in the NICE SEARCH shortcode as the BBpress custom post types.

I have tried both of the following as a trial but they didn’t work:

[wpns_search_form only_search=”bbp_register_topic_post_type”]

and

[wpns_search_form only_search=”ntwb_bbp_topic_cpt_search”]

Can anyone assist me with what the correct format of the BBpress custom post type(s) that I should be entering into the NICE SEARCH short code.

Thanks in advance for any assistance that is offered.

Kind Regards

Hi everybody,

I’ve just finalised the migration from PhpBB to BBpress.
I’have noticed that when I open a read a topic for the first time, there’s some processing happening in the background the takes time depending on the number of replies in that topic.

– hundred of replies can take more than 10 seconds. Once I am in the topic, if I open it again with another user, it’s fast.
– thousand of replies can end up in a ” PHP Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded”
– also, a test I did on a topic with about 40K replies ended up in an “Allowed memory size of XXXX bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4096 bytes) in Unknown on line 0” error.

I am on a dedicated server and I can change all the memory and execution time limits parameters, but I have the feeling this should not be the solution.
I don’t understand why there0s so much processing happening.

After a second look, I’ve noticed that the replies are not paginated. So the system tries to return all the replies in one shot.
I’ve tried to change the pagination settings and also to deactivate/reactivate the plugin but it didn’t fix the issue.

Even when I move a topic in the thrash, there’s some php logic that eliminates the replies one by one and can take a minute when the topic has 40 replies.

Is this normal?

Anyone who can help?

Thanks,

Gio

[Robin W]

several ways to achieve this, you can do it by creating different roles

eg

Dears,

I am installing bbPress on my website – I’d like to establish user levels for participants based on the number of messages they’ve sent in the forum.

For example:
1-10 messages – level 1
10-50 – level 2
50-100 – level 3

and so on..

Any idea how to do that?

I’ve been seraching for a solution here on the forum with no success.

Thanks a lot
Simone

Sorry for mass bumping the thread, but i found this:

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2414

But the “trac” says that it has been fixed?

Most wordpress themes work fine with bbpress. There are plugins such as https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-toolkit/ and https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/ that will help integration and add features

[heero]

Latest WordPress and bbPress version. Any idea guys?

[Fuskeduske]

Hi Back9hours,

I use this: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbpress-new-topics

with a little modifications found at the support forum, which seems to work fine.

I can give you my modificated file?

[trehesten]

When users try to reply on a thread on their mobile it very often happens that they just bumps to first post in thread without submit the post. I have experienced this myself. I then go back, and send again. Sometimes it takes 2,3 or 4 times before posting is successful.

I use wordpress 4.5.3
bbpress 2.5.9

Is there any tip on how to find the error?

I use this theme on mobile:
GM Neo (Graphene)

This app to mobile switch:
Any Mobile Theme Switcher

I also have the following plugins for my bbpress:
GD bbPress Tools
bbPress Go To First Unread Post
bbPress Unread Posts v2

[arnalyse]

I encountered the same Problem as Loc: The count returned by bbp_get_user_reply_count does not update with the user’s activities in the forums. The bbp_get_user_reply_count_raw computes the count directly from the database, which is computationally more expensive, but delivers a correct count.

Furthermore Robkk is right: I just had a look at the source code of bbPress 2.6-alpha, and has added and hooked some functions to correctly increase and decrease the post count on user’s actions such as creating and deleting posts.

[Robin W]

This is probably because in the bbPress default theme package, there is a template called content-search.php. In some newer themes there is also a template of the same name. And since the bbPress templates don’t necessarily need to be in a bbPress folder, the bbPress plugin is choosing the template from your theme before the template that is actually in bbPress.

Copy content-search.php from the bbPress plugin templates and place it in a child theme in a folder called bbpress.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-search-only-showing-last-item/#post-175880

Functions files and child themes – explained !

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

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

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-search.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/content-search.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
