I’ve made a threaded forum list which looks really nice. I’ve added a little code to reply to posts but it isn’t writing the meta and I really don’t know what to write in the meta.
I’m thinking it would be cool to bring in the entire bbpress functions.php to my page to utilize those functions already, rather than writing my own code for things.
Is that possible to import functions.php and use it outside of bbpress?
The main functions I would be looking for are posting and replying.
I am trying to delete everything from an import I didn’t like but hostgator is timing out when I try to delete forum with 82,258 posts. Even if I delete plugin and all files, reinstall, it brings back everything. Hostgator support doesn’t know how to help me with this. Any methods I can try to clear out my bbpress and start new so I can try the import again?

Error below:
ERROR 504 – GATEWAY TIMEOUT
The server that your request has reached is acting as a gateway or proxy to fulfil the request made by your client.
Web Browser => Web Front-End => Web Back-End
This server (Web Front-End) received an invalid response from an upstream (Web Back-End) server it accessed to fulfil the request.
In most cases this will not mean that the upstream server is down, but rather that the upstream server and the gateway/proxy do not agree on the protocol for exchanging data.
This problem is most commonly caused when there is a problem with IP communications between the Web Front and Back-Ends. Before you attempt to resolve this problem you should clear your browser cache completely.
Hi,
I’m using the beta WP-REST API (beta version 2) to enable REST calls. Some endpoints do work if I add show_in_rest=>true to register_post_types() and register_taxonomies() methods in bbpress.php. With the show_in_rest flag, it allowed me to run the following endpoints:
http://localhost:8888/wp-json/wp/v2/forum
http://localhost:8888/wp-json/wp/v2/taxonomies
http://localhost:8888/wp-json/wp/v2/terms/topic-tag
http://localhost:8888/wp-json/wp/v2/topic
My bbPress website has two forums called “Politics” and “Sports”. Iād like to query all topics in a specific forum, but Iām unable to query with the following endpoints:
http://localhost:8888/wp-json/wp/v2/topic?filterforum_type=sports
How should I filter topics from a certain forum?
Thanks.
This is somewhat theme related and bbPress theme compatibility related.
What theme are you using, and I can take a look to see what I could do to fix it.
Hi, i have a problem, at bbpress homepage (site.com/forums) forums and topics displays without html (screen 1, screen 2), and this trouble only on homepage! in topic and forum page its ok – clip2net.com/clip/m393690/fd9dc-clip-75kb.png?

and i’m sorry 4 my bad english, but pls help me anyone
Use this custom css. Add the custom css to your child themes style.css file or anywhere else 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;

Ciao tomtower,
bbPress only or do you use buddypress ?
Pascal.
with pleasure but my expertise is very limited ! I am an industry energy engineer…
I look at that yet :
Enable Visual Editor
Hi Denaize,
Any extras around bbPress are welcome. Let me know if you scripted something, or upload your plugin/theme to WordPress.org so others can benefit from it also.
Pascal.
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 š or not free at all !
I’ll take a little time for study how to improve the toolbar myself…but I am worried
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 š
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 š
@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.
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)
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
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.

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.
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
