indeed.
I have a forum management philosophy with an existing group and give them access or not to a particular part of the forum.
but I have the impression that on bbpress with buddypress it’s not the same ? …
I have found that the following files have functions that might be making the size stick no matter what
From bbpress\includes\topics\template.php
function bbp_get_topic_author_link( $args = '' ) {
// Parse arguments against default values
$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array(
'post_id' => 0,
'link_title' => '',
'type' => 'both',
'size' => 80,
'sep' => ' ',
'show_role' => false
), 'get_topic_author_link' );
And from bbpress\includes\replies\template.php
function bbp_get_reply_author_link( $args = '' ) {
// Parse arguments against default values
$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array(
'post_id' => 0,
'link_title' => '',
'type' => 'both',
'size' => 80,
'sep' => ' ',
'show_role' => false
), 'get_reply_author_link' );
If someone could write me a function for just the size part perhaps that would work? I don’t know enough to be able to write one myself lol
Closing as this is a duplicate to this topic.
BBPress and the TruePixel Premium Theme
@bahamamom66
Why didn’t you post a link in your other topic, and why did you create another new topic for the same issue??
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forum-content-not-showing-up-on-forum-page/
Also I tested your theme out and have not come across the same issue you are having. I didn’t need to create a “forum page”, it just worked fine out of the box.
What was the content of the template?? It should be similar to the single-user.php template in the extras folder in the bbPress plugin, but you know molded to your theme.
I wish I knew today how to use the page builder with BBPress.
I don’t think you can or there is not really a point to, since you cannot edit all the topics in your forum or anything. Or it just might not work and break the bbPress layout.
Closest thing I can think of is to use a quote plugin like this, which when a user is quoted will insert an @user for each user quoted.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-direct-quotes/
Copy the bbPress templates into your child theme in a folder called bbpress.
Theme Compatibility
The files you may need to edit are in
loop-forums.php
loop-topics.php
loop-replies.php
For widgets I think that would only be in the widget settings, and not really a frontend thing. You may need to create a new widget with your own terms if it bugs you too much in the backend.
That crashed my sight for some reason. Any thoughts?
@tallsam
Did you place the code snippet I placed earlier correctly?? It seems to work fine on my test site.
Same thing goes for @pinkishhue‘s code.
These both work if you want to show only 1 revision log on the Frontend of your forums.
But first, is there going to be an update to bbpress that will remove the extra revision statements? If so, any thoughts on when this will be ready?
Not really remove the statements, but just make 1 visible. Have no idea when @netweb’s code will make it into core.
@tallsam
Do you want them all gone?? This topic is all about just having one visible on the frontend.
Also there might be a bug about the revisions somewhere I think. Haven’t fully checked that one out though.
But you can always disable the revision logging from being displayed in the forums in Settings > Forums, there will still be revisions on the edits in the backend though, since it is a post type in WordPress. And hide the existing revisions with CSS using the first half of pinkishhue’s code.
There is a way to limit the total number of revisions kept per post though in WordPress.
But if you do want to completely remove the revisions you can use a plugin that @casiepa listed, but this may remove ALL revisions of any post or plugin using the revision system in WordPress. Some custom css plugins may use it, and clearing the revisions may lose all your saved styles.
Did you make your forums hidden? Hidden forums are only seen by admins and mods
Did you clear any cache/do you think you set up caching correctly? Caching is a common issue that could cause issues for beginners?
Could there be a plugin/php code snippet you may have activated that may be causing this issue? A plugin/custom php code snippet could conflict with bbPress somehow.

I have just tried to load the wp-monalisa plugin and it turned everything in my Forums OFF.
What exactly did it turn off?? I have an issue where the smiley code won’t paste and that is it.
Was a bit disconcerting as when I logged into the Forum the forum index did not show and the links to the Forum would not work, nor the pages.
Link to your forum so I could see this. It may just be a bbPress theme compat/theme issue.
There must be a hick up somewhere as I don’t have anything special – just the BBPress Forum plugin and the Ultimate Member plugin.
I could replicate an issue a little with using a default theme and while having TinyMCE activated, and the default toolbar editor tab is the HTML one it doesn’t seem to work unless I switch to TinyMCE and back.
It does work with bbPress and how its default quicktags editor though.
@deanhills
First don’t bump up 7 year old topics, it is annoying.
Second that bbPress in this topic was a standalone forum software and is entirely different from the plugin version now.
bbPress can use WordPress’s supplied smilies.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Smilies
🙂 🙁 😛
And even its emojis
https://codex.wordpress.org/Emoji
💀 👻 👽 😺 😸 😹 😻 😼 😽 🙀 😿 😾 🙌 👏 👋 👍 👊
Roll on 7 years and there are still no dedicated emoticons/smilies for BBPress. I’ve been testing the forum for use, but what forum on earth is worth its while if it doesn’t have smilies?
I tried the recommended wp-monalisa and ironically that completely disables BBPress when it is activated.
NOT impressed!

This site was working fine but suddenly when a user is logged on it shows the forum name and the number of topics and replies but then shows the statement: Oh bother! No topics were found here!
When logged in as Admin everything appears as it should
I have deactivated and reactivated BBPress, made all the repairs, tried to build a separate Forum, all to no avail
Any Ideas please ?………. Oh and on the Forum Statistics on the Sidebar it still says Forums 0
Very grateful for any help.

Hi!
After a google search, it looks like, there is no way to edit the links/breadcrumbs, if you have a bbpress-forum in WP installed: Always there is a “forum/forum” in the breadcrumb/link.
HOW I CAN DELETE (Actualy) “ONE FORUM” ?
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!
I have been struggling with this for a few days now and I’m tearing my hair out!
It’s absolutely crucial that my forum only displays Usernames and NOT real names.
This thread seems to be the most promising info I could find…
User profile link, only show username.
I tried Robin’s Plugin…
bbpress username plugin
And I got REALLY excited as it seemed to do the trick. HOWEVER, I found one deal-breaker: When you look at the Forum Index- the plugin seems to put the Avatar of the latest Fresh post but show the Username of the Oldest post in that forum. Freshness time is displayed correctly.
If I Deactivate the plugin, All data is correct again, but obviously I am then getting real names displayed again.
I have emailed Robin to see if he is still supporting the plugin and can rectify.
Is there anybody here who would very kindly be able to walk me through step-by-step how to make this work. I don’t mind editing PHP files- I have no experience in PHP, but I can open them with Notepad and copy/paste text if someone can steer me.
I am so desperately frustrated with this issue. It’s to the detriment of my forum as members are reluctant to post unless its just their Username that is shown.
Many thanks in advance,
Regards,
Ian
A. image upload option to tool bar
You can use the simple external link image button and oembed for images hosted on imgur.
There are two plugins that can add image uploading in bbPress though.
gd bbPress attachments for file attachments upload is not through the toolbar though
BuddyPress Forum editor which adds a TinyMCE upload image button, but requires BuddyPress, and I am not sure how this could work with TinyMCE Advanced.
B. video upload option to tool bar
oembed will you embed youtube videos automatically by placing the url of the video straight into the forum post.
C. more options (font size, family, remove formatting, et etc) to the tool bar
You would need to enable tinymce in bbPress either through a plugin like the bbPress enable visual tab plugin or by adding the code snippet in this guide.
Enable Visual Editor
To have the extra buttons, the plugin TinyMCE Advanced would help, as long as you have teeny mode set to false in code snippet or enable the extra buttons through the bbPress visual tab plugin.
Hello!
Hope, you feel well at this weekend!
I have a question: exist a bbpress-plugin (free or comercial), with what i can show attachments (not only picturs) “inline”, inside a posting – not only at the end?
Thank you all!
Hello !
I`m new to WP and – sure – new here. English is not my native language, please sorry for any mistakes.
Installed WP and a premium-theme in XAMPP today, together with Buddypress and bbpress.
I want to ask, how i can make a “widget” (?) like this one, on this site:
Is this a custom widget?
Thank you in advance!
WP-4.3.1/Jolene/bbPress-2.5.8
Going crazy here. Just building a “live” version of a site I tried WP out on. Installed same plugins as previous site, set up forums like previous site etc etc.
Problem is when I go to Appearance>Menus to make a custom menu, I have four tabs: Pages; Posts; Custom Links; Catergories.
On the site I learned WP on I also have four tabs: Pages; Forums; Custom Links; Categories.
How do I get Posts to go and Forums to appear? I’ve tried various deactivations of plugins and re-install of all the bbPress stuff without success.
Have I missed something or do I need to start from scratch?
Cheers,
Eugene.

Contact your theme author’s support.
I think your theme may be missing the bbpress-rtl.css stylesheet.
Support for 3.1x is in the 2.6 version of bbPress, which hasn’t released yet.
I think bbPress already does this for users that are not at least an Admin.
In this gist there is a list of the used tags a participant user can use, well expect for the tables, that was added in the gist as an example of adding more tags.
