May I hire you to write a plug in that would allow SOME sections of bbpress to be closed after a year but others to stay open indefinitely?

Hi,
Is it possible to use bbpress as a support ticketing system something similar to known plugin in the area like SupportCandy, Awesome support etc.
Thanks

Thanks for the links 🙂 It’s not a necessary feature, but agree would be neat. I think one issue is that most scripts and functions are for when you have TinyMCE as the deafault WordPress editor, but this is inside bbPress.

I’ll definitely let you know if I find a working solution.

I tried the settings under ‘Forum Templates’ but I’m getting the same WSOD. bbpress just isn’t loading anything other than the blank index.php in the block theme.

Is there another setting I’m missing? Is anyone using bbpress with a block theme yet?

Thank you again for your suggestion!

Hi!
I tried a snippet from this page: https://codex.bbpress.org/layout-and-functionality-examples-you-can-use/#24-show-status-labels-for-bbpress-topics
to get a label or icon for sticky topics.

function rk_sticky_topics() {
 
   if ( bbp_is_topic_sticky() && !bbp_is_topic_closed() )
      echo '<span class="sticky">[Sticky]</span>';
}
 
add_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_title', 'rk_sticky_topics' );

I get a fatal error with syntax error unexpected ‘;’ on the line starting with if.

Thank you in advance

This is not in the basic bbpress, but I saw this on other forum’ engines.
I think it would be great if to find a combo plugin for bbpress admins like bbpress-styles for poly-customize.
Now I’m just looking for a shadowban recipe – perhaps this can be done through the hooks of the php function…

[silviach]

We have the same problem: users cannot upload images to our forum. How can this problem be solved ? It would be best if users could upload images without admin intervention.

BBpress keeps loading the empty index.php in the TwentyTwentyTwo Child theme I’m working on, which loads a WSOD.

I can’t get any of the template filters to use one of the html files, so temporarily have it working with the index.php file as:

wp_head();
block_header_area();
block_template_part( 'page-inner' );
wp_footer();
block_footer_area();

And… its almost all working? But, this can’t be the right way to get it to use the new default page template in the block theme.

Thoughts? Ideas? How can I get it to use the new theme templates?

Thanks!

ok, given that I cannot access site (in effect you are sending me a photo of your car engine, rather than letting me see the car itself) I can only suggest 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

Then come back

[Robin W]

is this in basic bbpress, or are you using an approval plugin?

[Robin W]

yes just tried ‘forum’ and it does not show

it could be a theme or plugin issue

[WPSOLR]

Hi,

1) I created a hidden forum with topics and replies as a keymaster
2) I logged in as a Participant
3) A search will not display topics and replies as expected, but the forum itself is displayed!
4) Clicking on the forum shows a 404 page, as expected

bbPress 2.6.9

[Robin W]

bbpress is stil being maintained.

It works fine with wordpress 6.x

[cathyskach]

I’ve tried everything I can think of to get the date to appear on posts. Nothing seems to work.

The site I’m working on is https://rosecityyachtclub.org/ WP v. 6.0.1, BBPress v. 2.6.9. Theme is Lyrical and parent theme is Primer.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Is bbPress no longer being updated?

It shows Last Updated: 8 months ago Untested with your version of WordPress

We are on WordPress 6.01.
I want to buy a theme for bbPress but am afraid it won’t work since it hasn’t been updated in so long 🙂

[Robin W]

ok, so to restrict :

dashboard>forums>all forums>edit the forum you want>right hand side you will find a box called ‘Forum Moderators’ add his name

Then make him a participant.

see thsi for role fresponsibilities

bbPress User Roles and Capabilities

I’m not sure that this wil let him create forums – but I suppose I would ask if he is that dangerous, maybe that’s something he should be asking you to do 🙂

[Robin W]

no problem – do come back if I can help further.

You might also want to look at

bbp style pack

It has loads of stuff that helps bbpress

[Robin W]

ok, now that we have checked the permalinks and the slugs, then it could be a theme or plugin issue

Hello,
well, it’s my turn to equip my sites with bbpress. Bigger and smaller problems are slowly solving. Question: what theme is used for the bbpress site at all. And is there something like a way to create a clone of bbpress.org, with my own content of course. I think this site is very good as a start and also practical for everyday life, because it shows many possibilities what bbpress can do. Therefore: is there something like a standard installation with dummy text? Would be wonderful.
Best regards, Rainer

Greetings! I am admittedly very green, but I’ve read several set-up guides for setting up a bbpress forum and followed the instructions to the letter. Yet when I click on the forum link, it takes me to a blank page. I feel like there’s something very obvious I must be missing but I cannot for the life of me figure out what it could be.

*replying to myself to see if this same behaviour happens on bbpress.org
original post tags:
-participant roles
-single topic tags
-tags
-topic tags
-troubleshooting
-user roles

this reply’s tags:
-tags

*confirmed to delete the original post tags and replace with the single reply tag. this is the behaviour i’m trying to fix for the site i’m working on! 🙂

[ppoirier1995]

Hi there,

I’m trying to find a solution to the problem of participants being able to remove single topic tags by simply removing them from the “Tags” input field on the reply-to form.

I’ve found this thread that clearly explains the issue

Topic tags deleted by other participants

and offers a solution that is unfortunately not working on my end.

My form-reply.php currently has this line:
<?php if ( bbp_allow_topic_tags() && current_user_can( 'assign_topic_tags', bbp_get_topic_id() )) : ?>
which I tried to replace with:
<?php if ( bbp_allow_topic_tags() && current_user_can( 'assign_topic_tags', bbp_get_topic_id() ) && current_user_can('moderate') ) : ?>
to no avail.

Has anyone solved this issue? Would love some guidance here! 🙂

[Robin W]

so the plugin is called bbpress which isn’t a word which translates, so what do you mean ??????
