I am using WordPress 6.0.2, bbPress 2.6.9 and my forums are located here.

I have what I would have thought was a fairly common requirement: I (keymaster/administrtor/moderator) simply want to receive an email notification if a post requires moderation, rather than having to ‘manually’ monitor the Topic/Reply lists through the forum adminsitration screens to see if moderation is required.

It seems that the ‘bbPress – Moderation Tools’ plugin used to do this, but this plugin appears to no longer be available. I have installed ‘bbPress Notify (No Spam)’ 2.17.6 (bbPNNS), but I seem only to be able to configure this to notify me after the post has been approved, not before, when moderator action is required.

My problem is not a fundamental problem with notifications. I get email notifications when new users register or when they change their password, and I can configure bbPNNS to send email notification when new topics are posted, but I cannot see how to configure something that will send an email notification when a pending post (Topic or Reply) requires the attention of a moderator.

There appears to be a plugin that will hold all posts for moderation, and send the desired email notification, but I don’t need, or want, all posts to be moderated.

I have posted a similar request on the bbPNNS support forum, where this post suggests that this is a standard feature of the bbPNNS plugin, but I cannot see how to configure this capability and thought I may need to be asking my question in a broader forum.

Can anyone point me to a suitable plugin or instructions on how I might be able achieve this?

Hi,
I Am trying to move the whole forum to another wordpress install and can’t figure out how to do it. How can there be migration options for so many other forums, but nothing to migrate a current BBPress Forum to another site?
Can anybody point me in the right direction please?

Thanks a lot!
Max

1 & 2

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

3. bbpress follows the rules in dashboard>settings>discussion

[shacagurus]

I am having three issues since installing the bbPress plugin:

1. Every time a user subscribes/unsubscribes to a forum or topic, this appears and stays on the screen: Error: There was a problem unsubscribing.

2. I have the html toolbar enabled, but it does not appear on the reply dialog.

3. I do not see how to allow replies to post without approval.

[Robin W]

from bbpress or a wordpress registration I believe, so if you’ve signed up to worpdress to log say a call in other pkigins

[Robin W]

your trheme is adding this – try

#bbpress article ul li:before {
 display: none;
}

[dillonleo]

The page on my forum is full of list bullets. (https://www.turtleholic.com/forums/forum/turtle-questions/)

Does anyone know how to fix this? I was able to add the following CSS code to the main Forum page (https://www.turtleholic.com/turtleholic-forum/), which removed the bullets from that page. But on the specific forum pages I don’t know how to add custom CSS.

ul ul li:before {
display: none;
}

ul li:before {
display: none;
}

[freelylw]

when click on the author’s name on this forum, it links to the author’s profile page, am wondering if this profile provided by bbpress or from other plugins, please advise, thanks

[kenjireds08]

I am not good with English and use translation software.

By default, new posts are displayed at the bottom, so I used the plugin “bbPress – Sort topic replies” to change the sort order.

This plugin allows new posts to appear at the top, but I would like to change the URL in the notification email when a post is made to the board.

Currently it says “https://✕✕✕✕/forums/topic/bulletin-board/page/19/#post-4536”

and when accessed from here, the user is taken to the last page, page 19.
I would like to delete the “page/19/” part of this URL, but I don’t know where to delete it.

Please help me.

I have installed the BBP Style Pack and was able to increase the font size and bold for the Forum and Subforum Titles in the list, but I can’t get them to change in:
– Topics Index under each forum
– Topics and replies

I have changed the font size to 15 and bold in:
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topics index styling>item 4
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topics index styling>item 13

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topics reply display>item 6
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topics reply display>item 10

But the changes don’t appear in the forum.

The forum is private, but here are screen captures of what they look like:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Y7Dk5151LNwtJ08BdQE-kWAZ75Iya-Um/view?usp=sharing

https://drive.google.com/file/d/19ALhYmhEj2EnqFJl5KOwpj_jcG-xdD2V/view?usp=sharing

I am trying to increase the size/bold the list of topics in the index under each forum and also to increase the size of the text in each of the topics.

I’m using:
WordPress 6.0.2 running Twenty Seventeen theme.
BBPress Version 2.6.9
BBP Style Pack Version 5.0.8

Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you.

sounds more like a question for learndash than bbpress- maybe start there?

Hi@dimitri333

Take a look at:

identify user with @

Regarding the (unofficial) code:

bbp Mentions Suggest

However, I think that you would have to add BuddyPress to your site to get this working. So it might not help you. I don’t think there’s anything you can do with bbPress alone.

[Devcr3]

I only use bbpress and no buddypress, is there a code or plugin for bbpress? TY❤️‍🔥

[Devcr3]

register_activation_hook(FILE, ‘bbpress_topic_scheduler’);

add_action(‘bbpress_daily_event’, ‘bbpress_close_old_topics’);

function bbpress_topic_scheduler() {
wp_schedule_event(time(), ‘daily’, ‘bbpress_daily_event’);
}

function bbpress_close_old_topics() {
// Auto close old topics
$topics_query = array(
‘author’ => 0,
‘show_stickies’ => false,
‘parent_forum’ => ‘any’,
‘post_status’ => ‘publish’,
‘posts_per_page’ => -1
);
if ( bbp_has_topics( $topics_query ) )
while( bbp_topics() ) {
bbp_the_topic();
$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id();
$topic_date = strtotime( get_post( $topic_id, ‘post_date’, true ) );
$forum_id = bbp_get_topic_forum_id($topic_id);
if ($topic_date < strtotime( ‘-5 hours’) && $forum_id == 9547 )
bbp_close_topic( $topic_id );
}
}

Ps: code add to functions.php

Hi – I want to create a custom menu in profile page – along with favourites, subscriptions, engagements etc.

Please help me in finding the right documentation to do this.

Right now I’ve create the link by editing the wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-details.php file.

Kindly guide me

[roostandrefuge]

When a forum is built, it is associated with a specific LearnDash Group. Currently, all new Topic post notifications are being sent to all the Moderators and Group Leaders regardless of the Forums assigned to specific LearnDash Groups. I only want notifications to go to the Moderators of those specific forum groups, not to everyone with a Moderator or Group Leader role.

[Robin W]

I found this ticket, and have added that link to it

In the BuddyPress profile bbPress subscriptions are listed. With each subscription there a little icon that looks something like [x]. It *appears* that this is intended to be used to cancel a subscription, but when you click on it nothing happens.

I’m a bit confused about where these bbP subscriptions in the BP profile come from. In otherwords I don’t know if they come from BP or bbP. I assumed it was BP but the BuddyPress people don’t seem to know what I’m talking about.

The [x] icon appears to take you to a path that looks like this:

https://mikeandtina.org/members/mike/forums/subscriptions/?action=bbp_unsubscribe&object_id=357&object_type=post&redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fmikeandtina.org%2Fmembers%2Fmike%2Fforums%2Fsubscriptions%2F&_wpnonce=37ad0686dc

So now I’m wondering of bbPress puts info about subscription on the BuddyPress profile, or if something else entirely is going on. If anyone can shed any light on this I’d appreciate it.

Mike

by default bbpress auto approves topics unless they fall foul of the rules in

dashboard>settings>discussion, so check the settings there

[Robin W]

Sorry, all of bbpress works on topics belonging to forums.

you can have just one forum, and then have your ‘forum’ page with a shortcode of topics using

[bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id] – Display a single forums topics. eg. [bbp-single-forum id=32]

[Himanshu]

In bbpress you have to select given forums and then crate a topic
But I want to crate topics without forum
How to do that?

[Robin W]

the user needs the bbpress ‘keymaster’role to do this.

only a keymaster can set up another keymaster, you do this in the users profile

[Robin W]

bbpress uses wordpress moderation settings in

dashboard>settings>discussion>comment moderation

Set keywords up in there, and bbpress will moderate using them

[caseymarketingcreations]

Thanks Robin, sorry if I confused there, I could only find a plugin which allowed you to moderate all items.

But was looking for a plugin which allows you to set certain keywords to flag to administrators/moderators, and/or hold those posts/comments as pending review.

I do believe now that this is part of bbPress out of the box, is that correct?

I’ve seen a few references to this issue, but seems noone was able to find, or at least post a solution, we’re having issues with divi theme on the archive pages with bbPress, latest WP/BBP/Divi versions with the theme builder, header and footer works on all pages, but the user profile, the other search archives for bbpress, all show a huge margin at the top then messed up formatting.

Was anyone able to rectify this? Divi’s developers blame bbPress and say to consult here.
