my code in that area is

<p class="bsp_topic_subscription_reply">

							<input name="bbp_topic_subscription" id="bbp_topic_subscription" type="checkbox" value="bbp_subscribe" tabindex="102">

							
								<label for="bbp_topic_subscription">Notify me of follow-up replies via email</label>
						
						</p>

Thank you, Robin.

To be clear, if this code adds throttle to the participant role, does it allow moderators to have less posting restrictions on the site?

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forum Display enable item 6 forum description.

Then in

dashboard>forums>edit forum in each forum you can put in the content part whatever you want to appear. in your case the same description for each forum, but you can have a different.

Finally to get this on the main forums list, create a page called ‘forums’, and put your description at the top of this. Then add the shortcode [bbp-forum-index] to this. bbpress will then use this as the main forums page.

looks like bbp_title is not working for users.

the code is called by a filter in
\bbpress\includes\core\filters.php

which is

Line 43: add_filter( 'wp_title', 'bbp_title', 10, 3 );

the function bbp_title is held in

\bbpress\includes\common\template.php

and the function starts at line 2578.

I may get a chance to look further tomorrow (or maybe not!), but if you fancy having a look. The function has a filter at the end, so if you can work out what’s wrong, should be easy to add a fix

Yes, I am designing my own theme. But basic WordPress templates work the same way.
There is no longer a <title></title> tag in header.php. Instead, functions.php has an add_theme_support ('title-tag');.
If I remove this and write the title tag back to header.php, it will display the user’s name in the title bar.

step 8

[Robin W]

make forums private to make them visible to users only

use shortcode

[bbp-register]

or anything in WordPress that does registration – bbpress just uses WordPress registration

[Robin W]

I believe this is it

https://bbpress.org/feed/?post_type=topic/

but come back and confirm

[Robin W]

thanks,

this will add throttle to the participant role

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

Code Snippets

add_filter( 'bbp_get_caps_for_role', 'brandi_role_caps_filter', 10, 2 );

function brandi_role_caps_filter( $caps, $role )
{
    /* Only filter for roles we are interested in! */
    if( $role == 'bbp_participant' )
        $caps['throttle'] = true ;
     return $caps;
}

Hey!

I’ve been trying several codes but I can’t get what I want.

I just simply need a rss URL that shows recent topics in all forums but not their replies. Is that possible?

Thanks

I used to take part in the European Tall Ships races in the 1980’s – so recognise the logo! many happy memories.

Hello,

I use add_theme_support ('title-tag'); and the <title></title> does not show the user’s name if I am on their profile.

Has anyone ever experienced this?

[Robin W]

change

$forum = bbp_forum_id() ;

to

$forum = bbp_get_forum_id() ;

[momomoko]

Thank you dear for your quick reply ; i copy/past the loop single forum file into my child theme root (what i did is the good way to do that ?) , then i added your script like this :

<a class="bbp-forum-title" href="<?php bbp_forum_permalink(); ?>"> 
<?php $forum = bbp_forum_id();  
$parent = wp_get_post_parent_id($forum);
if (!empty($parent)) {
   echo esc_html( get_the_title($parent) ) ;
   } 
   ?> : <?php bbp_forum_title(); ?></a>

The result is that i got the id forum behind each forum title (on the main parents forums list) and on the subforum list (when i click on a forum on the forums list), i got the subforum id attached to parent title : subforum title

[Robin W]

untested but try

$forum = bbp_forum_id() ;
$parent = wp_get_post_parent_id($forum) ;
if (!empty($parent)) {
 echo esc_html( get_the_title($parent) ) ;
}

How can I fix the dubbing of responses and topics in the activity filter in some templates in bbpress 2.6.4?

                <select id="activity-filter-by">
                    <option value="-1">— Everything —</option>

                    <option value="new_member">New Members</option>
<option value="updated_profile">Profile Updates</option>
<option value="activity_update">Updates</option>
<option value="bbp_topic_create">Topics</option>
<option value="bbp_reply_create">Replies</option>

        <option value="bbp_topic_create">Topics</option>
        <option value="bbp_reply_create">Replies</option>

                </select>

I am using the bbPress forum on my Android Blog (Droidfeats forum) but unable to get the breadcrumbs as I don’t use the Yoast Breadcrumbs feature.

I tried to search in this forum several times but unable to get any custom breadcrumbs plugin specific to bbPress forum pages.

Why I don’t use Yoast breadcrumbs is because it’s for the entire site. I don’t want breadcrumbs over the whole site’s post because it destroys my site layout and ad positioning. But I only want them on my forum pages and topics.

Is there any way to get it? Or any code to implement on Snippets?

[Chuckie]

I was told that :

https%3A%2F%2Fwww.publictalksoftware.co.uk%2Fxxx%2F%3Ftopic%3Dthis-is-a-test%26paged%3D3%23post-5572

is not a very “pretty” link. I don’t rightly know. But how is this url created? Does bbPress format it like this?

I tried deactivating everything except bbpress and the links were still like that.

In short, is this by design?

[Robin W]

no I can’t – you would need code to create the ability to upload a csv file into bbpress – and that is beyond free help

[Robin W]

newer versions of php no longer like that code – use this

add_filter( 'bbp_get_user_edit_profile_url', 'rew_redirect');

function rew_redirect () {
$url = 'https://www.facebook.com/' ;
return $url ;
}

[David13_13]

Hey!

I’ve used this code in my child theme functions.php:

add_filter( 'bbp_get_user_edit_profile_url', 'http://example.com');

But it doesnt work, if I now click “Edit” it does nothing instead of go to example.com

Thanks

I did something very similar to what you suggested. I hadn’t found the ‘bbp_new_reply_post_extras’ action so I tied it into wp_insert_post.

I added a drop-menu/select field inside form-reply.php which I’m able to then access the data through the $_POST['d20_char'] variable in the wp_insert_post action.

I’m populating that select box by simply running a wp_query and selecting all the CPT Characters and populating them. I will eventually limit that list of Characters based on a User’s role, and who the author of the Character is. DMs can post as Player’s Characters, and players can post as more than 1 character. (I’m not sure yet how I’m going to allow other people to use the website with their players and character lists, but I’ll cross that bridge some day in the future)

Below is the really rudimentary version of my code. I will be adding a $post->post-type check to make sure I will then only the run code if a reply is being created, and also a check to make sure the POST data I’m looking for is present.

function rpg_bbp_new_topic_handler( $post_id , $post , $update ) {
	
	update_post_meta( $post_id , 'd20_char' , $_POST['d20_char'] );
	
} add_action( 'wp_insert_post', 'rpg_bbp_new_topic_handler', 10, 3 );

[Robin W]

I did some thinking around this last night.

Basically bbpress looks for an author ID in the posts table.

Now there’s a hook in the topic/reply handlers (topic for topics, reply for replies, so they mirror) after a topic/reply is created.

do_action( ‘bbp_new_reply_post_extras’, $reply_id );

so if each of your characters has a WordPress user ID, then you could just hook to this, and change the post author to the worpress user ID.

so say

add_action ('bbp_new_reply_post_extras' , 'your function') ;

function your_function ($reply_id) {
$id = [either use the $_POST if still available and maybe have the value as the WordPress user ID , or get_post_meta for d20_character in the reply_id and do a look up to translate value to WordPress user ID]
$my_post = array(
      'ID'           =>$reply_id,
      'post_author'   => $id,
      );
 
// Update the post into the database
  wp_update_post( $my_post );

}

that way each topic/reply has a real author that happens to be your character chosen in the topic/reply form.
that would save a ton of coding in the output, and risk of missing one and exposing the real user.
