Then it’s completely normal that you get everything in English ! If you want to have your site in Spanish, you should change it to Spanish and bbPress will adapt automatically (if you choose Spanish (Spain) or Spanish (Chile), because the other Spanish are not yet fully translated).

Pascal.

[stussi]

my site language is in English right now. and bbpress is version 2.5.8

[Pascal Casier]

Unfortunately not.
Do you have the possibility to switch to a standard wordpress theme ?
Or deactivate all plugins except bbPress ? Then reactivate one by one
Pascal.

I am using BbPress Version 2.5.8 but I think you are right it is never finding the source.

Where should the source files be placed?

When I use bbpress I notice that on the mobile it is all squished up. To solve this I have removed the freshness column and adjusted the spacing of the info, topic and posts columns. This works on the forums page but when I click on one of the forums the freshness column is removed but the spacing seems to be the same. Can you see what I have done wrong with my css?

li.bbp-forum-freshness, li.bbp-forum-freshness {
	display: none;
}

li.bbp-forum-freshness, li.bbp-topic-freshness {
	display: none;
}

li.bbp-forum-info, li.bbp-topic-title { width:50%; }

li.bbp-forum-topic-count, li.bbp-forum-topic-count {
	text-align: center;
	width: 30%;
}
li.bbp-forum-reply-count, li.bbp-forum-reply-count {
	text-align: center;
	width: 20%;
}

////// This is the bit that isn't playing nice

li.bbp-forum-info, li.bbp-topic-title { width:50%; }

li.bbp-forum-topic-count, li.bbp-topic-topic-count {
	text-align: center;
	width: 30%;
}
li.bbp-forum-reply-count, li.bbp-topic-reply-count {
	text-align: center;
	width: 20%;
}

Many thanks 🙂

So I made a fresh forum for testing and the posting was instant. So it looks like 1.8 Millions entries in our wp_posts table is just too big a strain. I want to try to mass delete a lot of the old stuff from years ago, but I don’t want to delete regular WP posts. So what in the SQL is unique to bbpress so I can run the correct query?

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,
bbPress translation files comes automatically and the ‘search’ button is in the translated list:
value="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Search', 'bbpress' ); ?>"
But I see you also have ‘topics’, ‘posts’ and ‘freshness’, so nothing is translated.

Can you please tell me:
1) in what language locale your WordPress is running in ?
Dashboard > Settings > General Settings > Site Language

2) What version of WordPress and bbPress you are using ?

Pascal.

I fixed my issue by using the default wordpress search (not bb search widget) and by adding this snippet into my functions.php. This snippet adds the bbpress hook into the default search and works like a charm (adds topics & replies) to search results. This will also make it much easier styling the search results page consistently (forum results vs blog / page results).

Thanks to: @undergroundnetwork for your snippet!

@vadim77

You are correct! When you change the + symbol in between the words to %20, everything works as it’s supposed to.

@Robkk

Considering the change from the + symbol to %20 works, what would our next steps be in order to get this working properly? If we can get the search to return the %20 as the separator, everything should be fine.

I have tried this within the 2015 / 2016 default wordpress themes with the same issue. Plugins running are Ultimate Member, bbpress & WP SMTP

[berkelmudez]

Wow very nice! The bbpress-fix actually did it! I guess it’s solved it now, thanks!!

Hi. I am in the U.S. on Central Time…

This is the only thing I have added… I ran WP Optimize yesterday to see if my database was the issue… but doesn’t seem to be.

}
$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id( $topic_id );
if ( !empty( $topic_id ) ) {
if ( !bbp_is_topic_anonymous( $topic_id ) ) {
$author_avatar = get_avatar( bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id ), $size );
} else {
$author_avatar = get_avatar( get_post_meta( $topic_id, ‘_bbp_anonymous_email’, true ), $size );

Hi, I really like the bbpress plugin and I almost got everything to work the way I want it to. I was hoping someone could help me on getting a feature that I really want and that I thought would be very helpful.

For the list of topics under a forum, I want to have a way to sort the topics. So I want like a dropdown to “Order By” with choices like these: “Date, Most Replies, Recently Active” etc.

I found ways to order them by all those options, but I just do not know how to make a dropdown list where I can pick them from.

Help would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.

[Robin W]

ah… I know why it does that, explained here

and

[kodacollider]

This is not from the search, though I wouldn’t be surprised if it does the same thing there as well. It does it for the pagination for a list of topics, yes, but also for the list of replies when viewing a topic (and when listing pages of a topic beneath the topic title when viewing a forum).

I am using child theme files. However, I see the pagination functions defined in:

/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/template.php
/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/replies/template.php

etc… and those files, of course, are not among my child theme files.

I tried your function, and it did add a space after each page number (though inside the anchor tag, not after it). It didn’t, however, removed the <br> tags. I tried plain as well as list, as commented.

Thanks for your help so far.

[Pascal Casier]

This is the pagination for a list of topics, right ? (and not for the search).

EDIT: and you did NOT copy a bbPress template into your own (child) theme but use the standard php files ?

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,
For sure NEVER edit files under bbPress, otherwise you loose it when there is an upgrade.
If you could give me an example of what you get now and what you would need to get, I could maybe help you further. Or a link to your site and then what would need to be changed.
Thanks, Pascal.

@abiliocaetano, thanks for this, I added it to our codex article here.

[kodacollider]

Hello. I’ve noticed throughout all of my bbpress pages there are a lot of <br> and <p> tags inserted, such as those by wpautop, but in places where they should not be.

I’ve gone and changed a lot of elements manually to get rid of as many of these as possible, but I’m kind of stumped on pagination. Each of the anchors in my bbpress pagination has a <br> between them, placing the pages in a vertical line rather than a horizontal one.

Any idea on this — is there anything I can do to get rid of these extra <br> tags?

[kodacollider]

Thank you. I’m having a little bit of trouble.

I found the original function I need to edit in bbpress/includes/topics/template.php:

function bbp_get_topic_reply_link( $args = array() ) {

		// Parse arguments against default values
		$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array(
			'id'           => 0,
			'link_before'  => '',
			'link_after'   => '',
			'reply_text'   => esc_html__( 'Reply', 'bbpress' ),
		), 'get_topic_reply_link' );

		// Get the reply to use it's ID and post_parent
		$topic = bbp_get_topic( bbp_get_topic_id( (int) $r['id'] ) );

		// Bail if no reply or user cannot reply
		if ( empty( $topic ) || ! bbp_current_user_can_access_create_reply_form() )
			return;

		$uri = '#new-post';

		// Add $uri to the array, to be passed through the filter
		$r['uri'] = $uri;
		$retval   = $r['link_before'] . '<a href="' . esc_url( $r['uri'] ) . '" class="bbp-topic-reply-link">' . $r['reply_text'] . '</a>' . $r['link_after'];

		return apply_filters( 'bbp_get_topic_reply_link', $retval, $r, $args );
	}

The only line I need to modify is:

$retval = $r['link_before'] . '<a href="' . esc_url( $r['uri'] ) . '" class="bbp-topic-reply-link">' . $r['reply_text'] . '</a>' . $r['link_after'];

Is there an easier way to phrase my new function to modify just this variable?

Hello,

I am using this plugin to add signatures: https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-bbpress-tools/

I would like the Revision information to align under the Signiture. I am currently using this CSS.

.topic.type-topic.status-publish > .bbp-reply-content,
.reply.type-reply.status-publish > .bbp-reply-content{
    display: -webkit-box;
    display: -moz-box;

    box-orient: vertical;

.topic.type-topic.status-publish > .bbp-reply-content > .bbp-topic-revision-log,

It is working fine in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer and Safari on apple devices such as IPhones. Can you please take a look for me?

Thanks.
