It’s a shame. For 10x cheaper the author could 20 or 30x more orders…
To be great BBpress need only an ergonomic and simple input interface adapted to non-IT (no tag and html code visualisation, direct entry and final appearance ) as an ultra simplified tinyMCE.
+ attachement of course.

Finally I got bored , wordpress is great but does not have a simple but ergonomic forum 🙁 or not free at all !
I’ll take a little time for study how to improve the toolbar myself…but I am worried

[Loc Pham]

Hello,

Is there a way to specify the date format use in bbPress? In various places of bbPress, the date format do complies to IOS 8601 standard and prints the ‘T’ element to specify the beginning of ‘time’ element like: 1994-11-05T08:15:30-05:00

Conversely, if I print bbp_get_reply($id) the format DOESN’T conform to ISO 8601 and prints the following: 1994-11-05 08:15:30-05:00. Notice that ‘T’ is missing. Its inconsistencies breaks my code in various places and wonder if there’s a way to specify the output?

Thanks
Loc

That’s one of the downsides of taking the WordPress – bbPress – BuddyPress route. Either you’re gonna shell out a lot of cash for great plugins, or you add most of the functionality yourself and take a lot of time doing so. I’m going with a mixture of both time and money. When it comes to buying one plugin — cool. Then you start buying three or six, and your yearly costs skyrocket for just one site.

gd bbpress tools looks great solution. I would have bought it with pleasure but it is much too expensive with expensive renewal every year 🙁

[denaize]

thanks

gd bbpress tools is not very interesting (no tool bar, no CODE bbcode). Your js will be great !

For writing option a tried with other theme…it’s the same 🙁

[Robkk]

@denaize

for bbcode use gd bbpress tools. It does not modify the quicktags toolbar automatically but you can change the output of the buttons though.

I have to find my custom editor.js file so give me a minute to help you on that.

[Robkk]

I think she has already got this. Since here function here has it where it shows up in a single forum.

extra fields in topicform (edit-function)

[denaize]

Hi

I tried Wp-Monalisa but in admin i can see :

Please turn off Settings -> Writing -> ‘Convert emoticons like…’ to use wp-Monalisa smilies).

but I dont have this setting in worpress 4.3.1…

gd-bbpress-attachments is OK, thank you. Unfortunately that the pro version is too too overpriced…

If Wp-Monalisa has no worries, just BBcode are missing !

thanks

[Robkk]

Does the fields show up, if you do not have the condtional for the single forum?

I did follow this guide and it shows up in the edit topic area.

Hi Chrissilisa,

Do you want to define your own functions ? Or just do something before every topic is displayed ? Maybe the last paragraphs of https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum-part-5/ about the ‘bbp_before_X’ could help you out here.

Pascal.

Glad you got yourself sorted out in your issue.

I also see that there is a huge avatar issue on your site so inserting this CSS into your child themes style css file or in a custom css plugin will fix that.

#bbpress-forums p.bbp-topic-meta img.avatar, 
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-reply-revision-log img.avatar, 
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topic-revision-log img.avatar,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-template-notice img.avatar, 
#bbpress-forums .widget_display_topics img.avatar, 
#bbpress-forums .widget_display_replies img.avatar {
    margin-bottom: 0;
    vertical-align: middle;
    border: 1px solid #ddd;
    width: 14px !important;
    height: 14px !Important;
}

You can also use the code I posted here. It is straight from that plugin.

Show 5 Recent Topics without Pagination Just like on bbpress.org homepage

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,

Talking purely on the DataBase side: Every reply has a metatag with the id of the ‘parent’, so the id of the topic. If you know the topic id (let say it’s 123) then a query to the DB on the postmeta table where (meta_key = ‘_bbp_topic_id’) and (meta_value=123) should give you the all the replies (including the topic itself)

Talking functions, check out bbp_get_all_child_ids to get an array with the child records.

Pascal.

[Loc Pham]

Hello,

Is there a function that allows me to grab the list of reply IDs to a given topic? I see there is a function that count the total number of replies for a given topic, but I can’t find one that will list the IDs out. bbp_get_topic_reply_count($topicId)

How does bbPress currently render the replies for a given topic? Does bbPress fetch ALL the replies from the DB then against match its topicID? This sounds like a very DB intensive method so I assume there must be some other way that would allow us to know all the replies for a given topic.

Thanks
Loc

Hi denaize,

I did not try any of the below, but just to give you ideas:
For the smileys you could try https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-monalisa/
For attachments there is https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-bbpress-attachments/

Hope this gets you started.

@hdcms

Yeah the release of 2.6 has been pushed back a couple times because of new bugs found, and further performance enhancements discovered.

Its a good and bad thing. Better software for you, but it might take awhile before it is released.

Anything that you might think should be released earlier(like a bug fix) in bbPress could released in a 2.5.9 security release.

The phpbb thing has to be in the 2.6 though, since it requires some major changes.

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,

That shortcode calls the content-single-forum.php template file. So you’re options are to copy that file to your theme and edit it (but this will be reflected globally, not just in the shortcode).
Or create your own shortcode based off the bbPress one and have it use a custom template file.

Pascal.

[gin_marcin]

Hi,

Is there a way I can show a topic list from just one forum on a page ?
I already tried the standard widgets – e.g. recent topics – but this one shows topics from all forums. Additionally I used the shortcode [bbp-single-forum id=00] but this shows beside the list also the creation of a new topic – I only would like to have the list.

Thanks
Marcin

P.S. Working local; WP 4.3.1; bbPress 2.5.8; Theme GeneratePress

[gene-stevo]

Thanks for that idea but I’ve been through all of them, in several variants. I’m going to try to make a duplicate for my current left side bar with bbpress tools used for custom sidebars. If that works nobody will know the difference. My biggest problem is that when I build this site, at it’s permanent domain, I wanted to be able to hand it over in the most simple form possible. The fewer the plugins I have to explain the better.
I thought I had the forum issue nailed with WP Symposium until it wanted $99 before I could even add a file upload or subscribe to forum option.
This is my first time with WordPress and I love it to bits…other than right at this minute 🙂
Thanks again.

Hi

I’m looking for bbpress, it works well but toolbar lacks a bit of ergonomics.
My members needs smiley, classical [quote] a quote[/quote] or [code]C code[/code] and picture/files attachement.

how do I get it ?

Thank you in advance

WP 4.3.1 and last bbpress

@mica123

When you said you got this.

bbpress
Response headers:
cache control: max-age=2592000

I think you just selected something similar to this in your dev tools.

bbpress.css?ver=2.5.8-5815

This is a CSS file, and the cache information you are outputting is just the browser cache information for that CSS file.

Usually you might find this in your htaccess file for code for browser caching, and this exactly for some CSS files.

ExpiresByType text/css A2592000

In the list of names of files being requested, you can try to pick another CSS file like

responsive.css?ver=1.9.7.7

And you should see the caching age be the same thing since it is a CSS file.

Most of the time the browser caching code would be present in your htaccess file wrapped in something like this.

<IfModule mod_expires.c>

But there could also be WordPress plugins that add browser caching like some minify plugins.

You and your dev have to backtrack and find out where and what is causing the browser caching. It is tough for me to find it on my end without a bunch of guessing, but if you want me to try to take a look at it, you can contact me through email here. https://robkkdev.wordpress.com/contact/

Also that custom login script would not cause this type of issue.

Also you can delete this piece of code since you are probably not using it correctly.

wp_enqueue_script( ‘custom-login’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/css/style-login.js’ );

[Robkk]

This is a common theme issue related to the theme styling absolute positioning the comment reply link for WordPress comments.

Use this custom css to fix the issue. Add it in your child themes style.css file or anywhere you can add custom css like in a custom css plugin.

#bbpress-forums .reply {
    position: relative;
    top: inherit;
    right: inherit;
    line-height: inherit;
    font-size: inherit;
}

I did more network testing on my bad site via the web developer.
All other pages display the following:
Response header:
main site url:
Cache Control: max-age=3600
bbpress:
Cache-control:max-age=2592000

Request headers:
main site url:
Cache-control: max-age=0
bbpress:
Cache-control:max-age=0

After login:

After login:
wp.login:
Cache-control:no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0

Without refreshing the page
bbpress:
Cache-control: max-age=2592000 –

On refreshing the page
bbpress:
max-age=2592000

The information for bbpress does not change at all.

This is different from the results gleaned from my good site as I reported earlier:
bbpress
cache control: max-age=2592000, public, proxy-revalidate, public, proxy-revalidate, must-revalidate
Cache control: max-age=0

After login:
Response header:
Cache control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0

So would this indicate that all is not well on my webhost provider’s server
regarding cache even if they say that it is not enabled?

Hi Guys,
I’ve been sort of getting on with bbpress installation but have hit a wall.
The page designated to host the forums isn’t showing my default WordPress left side bar.
I think I’ve unticked and re-ticked every option on every bit of setting I can find but it still wont show. I’ve even installed Content Aware Sidebars with the idea of inserting one that way but I cant get that to work either.
What the heck am I missing (I’m a WP newbie). WP: 4.3.1 Theme: Jolene
The affected page is here.
Club News & Forums
(the password to these learn-as-I-go pages is ccc but don’t tell anyone.
Cheers in advance,
Eugene.
