Like WordPress, bbPress uses a semi-decimal-based versioning system, where bbPress 2.4, 2.5, and 2.6 are considered major versions.

bbPress 2.6 was a major update with just under 6 years of development:

This version of bbPress has been in development for just a bit under 6 years (yikes!) over which 420 tickets were resolved via 1737 individual code commits.

The Full list of releases is available on the bbPress codex, although it doesn’t have the full details for the latest two minor 2.6.x releases.

you could add this to your custom css

.bbp-login-form {
	width: 60% !important;
}

[Robin W]

just remove the code

and refresh your browser

I think your code did something really bad, it redirects my forums now to other pages… what can I do?

For example: https://www.paastoa.com/forum/intervallfasten/

[Robin W]

thanks, ok lets try this

add_filter( 'wpseo_title', 'rew_meta_title' );
function rew_meta_title( $title ) {
global $post ;
       if ($post->post_type == 'reply' ) {
	 $title = 'this is a reply' ;
    }
 return $title;
}

[amirzwp]

sure, yoast SEO (Also Premium version) is enabled.

I tried both of the codes you sent me, both doesn’t have an effect on the Meta Title.

The snippet with the following code is still activated on the website:

add_filter( 'wpseo_metatitle', 'rew_meta_title' );
function rew_meta_title( $title ) {
global $post ;
       if ($post->post_type == 'reply' ) {
	 $title = 'this is a reply' ;
    }
 return $title;
}

So you can check, if there happend something. I deleted the other snippet because it also didn’t had an effect on the website. But when it has an effect, it’s not so good because the website is live.

Thanks for your time.

[Robin W]

thanks – just to ask the obvious, you are running the yoast plugin ?? 🙂

then as a test can you try a correction to my previous code

add_filter( 'wpseo_metatitle', 'rew_meta_title' );
function rew_meta_title( $title ) {
global $post ;
       if ($post->post_type == 'reply' ) {
	 $title = 'this is a reply' ;
    }
 return $title;
}

if that fails, can you try (as a test only)

add_filter( 'wpseo_metatitle', 'rew_meta_title' );
function rew_meta_title( $title ) {
 $title = 'this is a reply' ;
   return $title;
}

This should put that phase at the top of every pages, and will at least show that the filter is working.

[amirzwp]

You can check the Title in the Browser-Tab. Currently, it’s showing the following text:

| Paastoa

So it’s only the seperator and the website title…

Also when you open the source code of the page, it shows:

<title>| Paastoa</title>

URL: https://www.paastoa.com/antworten/8907/

Thanks for your help.

Sorry I’m just a bbpress user who helps out here. I don’t have time to research every part of code – the answer is no doubt yes.

[zandercent]

a bit hacky – but sure. Is there a way to disable just the part that shows all the other links on site? Or use a more standard forum link insertion method (that doesn’t mean adding a bbcode plugin)?

[Robin W]

I don’t have any sites with both yoast and forums on them (my forum sites are profession related sites with private forums so don’t want to advertise!).

So I don’t know which part of the code is faulty.

If you are able to test, then start with

add_filter( 'wpseo_metatitle', 'rew_meta_title' );
function rew_meta_title( $title ) {
       if ($post->post_type == 'reply' ) {
	 $title = 'this is a reply' ;
    }
 return $title;
}

this should make the title of each reply ‘this is a reply’

if that works, then we kwow the function is working, but not getting the right answer !

If it doesn’t work, then I’ll come back with another

[amirzwp]

And again, thank you very much for your help.

It didn’t change anything on the BBPRESS – Reply Pages, for example:

https://www.paastoa.com/antworten/8907/

Is the code you sent me really for BBPRESS? I think it’s for the normal replies…

[davelowe1977]

Apart from the root forum which shows all the sub forums and nothing else, all my sub forums have a reply / new topic form tacked on at the bottom. I would like to remove this and replace it with two buttons: “New” and “Reply” which lead to a separate form/page with all the removed functionality. If I inspect the page code as it is, it is everything in this element tag:

<div id=”new-topic-0″ class=”bbp-topic-form”>

Is this possible? Thanks.

WordPress 5.4.1
BBPress Version 2.6.4 & default theme.

[Robin W]

I think this is what you are after

bbp_show_lead_topic

Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

ah, I understand, sorry not really into SEO

try this

add_filter( 'wpseo_metatitle', 'rew_meta_title' );
function rew_meta_title( $title ) {
    global $post;
    if ($post->post_type == 'reply' ) {
		$order = $post->menu_order ;
		$post_parent = $post->post_parent ;
		$topic_title = get_the_title ($post_parent) ;
        $title = $topic_title.' '.$order ;
    }
 return $title;
}

[Robin W]

you could just enqueue it

bbp_enqueue_script( bbpress-editor-always, 'js/editor.js', array( 'jquery' ), '2.6.4', true );

[Robin W]

thanks – I’m just a user who helps out here, not a bbpress author.

so

1. can you confirm that the above plugin is not necessary – bbpress already does this ?

2.

can you try this code

add_filter( 'wpseo_metadesc', 'rew_meta_desc' );
function rew_meta_desc( $content ) {
    global $post;
    if ($post->post_type == 'reply' ) {
		$order = $post->menu_order ;
		$post_parent = $post->post_parent ;
		$title = get_the_title ($post_parent) ;
        $content = $title.' '.$order ;
    }
 return $content;
}

Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

OK thanks for looking at this anyway. I’m now thinking it may relate to the MySQL 8 settings, specifically SQL_MODE which included ‘STRICT_TRANS_TABLES’ (strict SQL mode > no zero dates).

I’ve tried removing this setting from SQL_MODE (for both session & global), but this doesn’t seem to resolve – when logging in to MySQL as the WordPress user I still get this error

Error Code: 1525. Incorrect DATETIME value: ‘0’

when running the query:

SELECT p.ID FROM wp_posts AS p WHERE p.post_date < ‘0’ AND p.post_type = ‘forum’ AND ( p.post_status = ‘publish’ OR p.post_status = ‘private’ OR p.post_status = ‘hidden’ ) ORDER BY p.post_date DESC LIMIT 1;

If I make any more progress I’ll post it here 🙂

The shortcode [bbp-topic-form] is a Form for “Create New Topic” when the user is logged in, and a Log-in-form (“You must be logged in to reply to this topic.”) when the user is not logged in.
When someone is creating a new subject, it is good to have a wide space to write in, but when someone is logged out, the Log-in form is too wide.
I think it is the same for [bbp-reply-form], for replying to already created topics (“You must be logged in to reply to this topic.”)

Is there a solution to this problem?

[Robin W]

put this is the custom css part of your theme

#qt_bbp_reply_content_link {
display : none ;
}

[zandercent]

bbpress doesn’t load the the necessary scripts (reply.js etc) when embedding a topic as a shortcode. This is because of the conditional checks on line 158 of bbpress-functions.php

if ( bbp_use_wp_editor() && is_bbpress() ) {

[sadakhanal]

what is the code to make the first reply of the topic as a sticky reply by default ?

i am trying to arrange the replies in descending order and the topic content is not showing on the top of the replies.

Question 2: Is it possible to show topic content under topic title, not on the replies? This will give me more options to arrange replies according to my requirement. [while i am using <?php bbp_topic_content(); ?> under topic title, the topic content is displaying in replies also]

[danielthorpe]

Thanks, that helped.

Its strange - cant get the editor to show like here

Also cant get rid of this box – doesn`t look like its needed to me.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ywdfl4crt9pydwg/gdf4543.png?dl=0

Any ideas for both?

Thanks!

For field name change I made changes in these files (in the wp-content >> plugins >> bbpres):

includes/admin/metaboxes.php
templates/default/bbpress/form-anonymous.php
includes/admin/metaboxes.php
templates/default/bbpress/form-user-edit.php
templates/default/bbpress/user-profile.php

Now it’s showing ‘Whatsapp number:’ instead of ‘Website:’. Still, there is a problem remaining, as I didn’t change the php code (not familiar in PHP coding) for website url, after entering the phone number it’s showing like this ‘http://9669856568&#8217;.

Also made changes in all css files in this directory wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css/, for font size change. From font-size: 12px; to font-size: 18px;.

[Robin W]

this code is from a bbpress convertor – no idea why it is running.

suggest you delete the user and recreate them
