Custom code is required for displaying it in your forums. You should insert the provided code into either your functions.php file, bbpress-functions.php file, or a functionality plugin.

Hi,

My theme is creating a featured image on the Topics which I can’t seem to change so I just have a large grey blob square at the top of every topic.

Introduce Yourself

I tried multiple default image wordpress themes and none of them worked.

I can’t add code to display: none because then it takes away the featured posts from the blog section.

Help?

Hi guys,

after install i see some strange code under profilenames. Only as admin i see this.
What is this?

That worked. GPT insisted that the function call was not needed even when specifically asked. Also it thought that the square brackets are some short codes that were a must, which confused me even more. The text (a poker hand history from a software) starts like this:
[converted_hand][hand_history]PokerStars – €0.50 PL Hi FAST (6 max) – Omaha Hi – 6 players
[url=”http://www.holdemmanager.com”%5DHand converted by Holdem Manager 3[/url]

BTN: €52.28 (104.6 bb)
[color=”grey”]SB: €24.25 (49 bb)
[/color][b]Hero (BB): €84.89 (169.8 bb)
[/b][color=”grey”]UTG: €52.86 (105.7 bb)
[/color][color=”grey”]MP: €31.34 (62.7 bb)
[/color][color=”grey”]CO: €50.00 (100 bb)
[/color]
SB posts €0.25, Hero posts BB €0.50

If I get this thing working I will make sure to update my old question about the hand histories in case some1 else is looking for a similar thing.
Thanks Robin!

[Robin W]

ok, the code is probably ok, but chat gpt has a long way to go !

A function needs something to call it, otherwise it just sits there.

Not tested, but add these 2 lines before or after (doesn’t matter which) the function

add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_content', 'replace_suit_symbols' ) ;
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_content', 'replace_suit_symbols' ) ;

[getfree]

yes, on bbpress forums.

I got the code from Chat GPT which ensured me that it would work (ie. clicking send would call the function and execute it) and gave me a few other pieces of more or less similar type of code. As you can see I am quite clueless on this stuff albeit I used to know some Python.

How to proceed..

This is related to this https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/poker-hand-histories-not-converted/#post-237481
We have some freelance developers helping out but they didn’t understand at all what I was trying to accomplish, so I am set to do this “alone” for now, with not much success :/

[Robin W]

ok so unless you have some further code, nothing is calling that function.

I presume this is content on bbpress topics and replies – yes?

[getfree]

hi,
I am trying to parse pasted text into something else, where the simplest thing is to change :spade: :club: :diamond: and :heart: to be visualized as ♠♣♦ and ♥ but my solution is not working.

In the Theme files I edited functions.php by adding the following code (in the staging environment)

// Function to replace suit representations with symbols
function replace_suit_symbols($hand_history) {
    // Replace suit representations with symbols
    $hand_history = str_replace(':spade:', '♠', $hand_history);
    $hand_history = str_replace(':heart:', '♥', $hand_history);
    $hand_history = str_replace(':diamond:', '♦', $hand_history);
    $hand_history = str_replace(':club:', '♣', $hand_history);
    
    // Return the modified hand history
    return $hand_history;
}

But when I write “:spade”, for instance, nothing changes. What am I missing?
Hello Theme, WP 6.4.3, bbPress 2.6.9.

[Robin W]

it needs a template change – if you know how to FTP

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-topics.php

transfer this to your pc and edit

change:

<li class="bbp-topic-voice-count"><?php esc_html_e( 'Voices', 'bbpress' ); ?></li>
			<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"><?php bbp_show_lead_topic()
				? esc_html_e( 'Replies', 'bbpress' )
				: esc_html_e( 'Posts',   'bbpress' );
			?></li>

to

<li class="bbp-topic-voice-count"></li>
<li class="bbp-topic-reply-count"></li>

and save

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-topics.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

Repeat this for the file loop-forums.php

I am trying to replace the titles for Voice and Replies with dashicons like the WordPress forums are styled. I am using the code below, and it works in that it adds the dashicon, but it doesn’t remove the words.

/*topic titles*/
.bbpress .forum-titles {
	overflow: hidden;
}
.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-voice-count::before,
.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-reply-count::before {
	font: 400 16px/1 dashicons;
	margin-right: 100px;
	-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
	-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
}

	.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-voice-count::before,
	.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-reply-count::before {
		font: 400 21px/1 dashicons;
		margin-left: 20px;
	}

.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-voice-count::before {
	content: "\f307";
}
.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-topic-reply-count::before {
	content: "\f125";
}

.bbpress li.bbp-header li.bbp-forum-info,
.bbpress li.bbp-header li.bbp-topic-title {
	text-align: left !important;
}

/*forum titles*/

.bbpress .forum-titles {
	overflow: hidden;
}
.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-forum-topic-count::before,
.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-forum-reply-count::before {
	font: 400 16px/1 dashicons;
	margin-right: 100px;
	-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
	-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
}

	.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-forum-topic-count::before,
	.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-forum-reply-count::before {
		font: 400 21px/1 dashicons;
		margin-left: 20px;
	}

.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-forum-topic-count::before {
	content: "\f307";
}
.bbpress .forum-titles .bbp-forum-reply-count::before {
	content: "\f125";
}

.bbpress li.bbp-header li.bbp-forum-info,
.bbpress li.bbp-header li.bbp-topic-title {
	text-align: left !important;
}

[Robin W]

I think in your code the function no_reply_email needs a my_bbp in front of it

so

function no_reply_email(){
    $email = 'no-reply@sitename.com'; // any email you want
    return $email;
}
add_filter('bbp_get_do_not_reply_address','my_bbp_no_reply_email');

shoudl read this

function my_bbp_no_reply_email(){
    $email = 'no-reply@sitename.com'; // any email you want
    return $email;
}
add_filter('bbp_get_do_not_reply_address','my_bbp_no_reply_email');

[demonboy]

Sorry, forgot the function and end part.

function add_custom_role( $bbp_roles ) {
	
$bbp_roles['deckhand'] = array(
'name' => 'Deckhand',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
	
$bbp_roles['admiral'] = array(
'name' => 'Admiral',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
	
return $bbp_roles;
}

add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_custom_role', 1 );

And the more I think about it, the more I think this was either something I have over-written in the past, or a feature I had another website, not something your plugin has done. On another website I use the pro version of User Role Editor and I think that is how I am able to force custom forum roles. I think the code I posted above relates to this plugin.

[demonboy]

Hi Robin,

My apologies, I’d said it was User Role Editor. It wasn’t, I used the Members plugin. Unfortunately, I can’t provide a link as everything is behind a login but here is my Members admin page. You can see the additional member roles I created.

All that said, however, I am wondering if this is a theme update that caused this. Previously I’d themed my forum to display this user role, not bbp-author-role, so it is possible this was over-written by a theme update instead (my theme includes bbpress). Honestly, it’s been over four years since I styled my forum so I’m clutching at straws here, but is there any way your plugin could have over-written any custom code I wrote?

I think if I add this to my child functions file I may be able to re-introduce the forum role:

		$bbp_roles['oyster-owner'] = array(
'name' => 'Oyster Owner',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);

[jemar707]

I have this in a plugin that we use for a lot of our changes that we want separate from child theme functions.php I don’t know if related.

function no_reply_email(){
    $email = 'no-reply@sitename.com'; // any email you want
    return $email;
}
add_filter('bbp_get_do_not_reply_address','my_bbp_no_reply_email');

function my_bbp_subscription_to_email(){
    $email = 'no-reply@sitename.com'; // any email you want
    return $email;
}
add_filter('bbp_subscription_to_email','my_bbp_subscription_to_email');

[osheta]

Hi,

I’m been seeing some post with HTML code when the teacher answers the questions. We are integrated with Learndash and they told me to comment this with you too.

Thanks,
Maria

[enkoes]

Thanks again. Can you look into the second issue as well?

The bullet point (*) is wrongly used in title “Forum” & “Posts”. I just feel that title should not apply bullet point.

Regards.

[enkoes]

I deleted all other widgets, and started with this Forum List widget first, followed by others. Overlapping issue persists. One thing to note is that all other widgets have not caused this problem, including those from Bbp Style Pack. This make me think that the issue is not from the theme itself (probably something missing within the codes?)

[enkoes]

Thanks for your effort @robin-w.

I want to highlight two issues with this widget:

1) If I position it as the first widget in the sidebar, it overlaps with other widgets which supposed to move down and give way to this widget;

2) The bullet point (*) is wrongly used in title “Forum” & “Posts”. I just feel that title should not apply bullet point.

* Forum                  * Posts
* Development & Updates   * 93
* Installation            * 28,139
* Troubleshooting         * 61,540
* Themes                  * 10,285
* Plugins                 * 15,193
* Requests & Feedback     * 14,798
* Showcase                * 3,252

Other than these two, the widget looks great! 🙂

[anutgc]

On this page – https://thebakersjunction.com/forums/
the footer code comes up as text.

I disabled all plugins one by one. When i disabled G5 Core plugin the problem on this page disappeared but my entire site template got broken.

I guess it is a conflict between bbpress and g5 core.

Pls help

[Robin W]

ok, that is not the correct place to put it. Can you remove it from there.

I see you have bbp style pack active, so can you put the code in

dashboard>settings>bbp syle pack>custom css

[patcg]

@robin-w i added the above code in my style.css file by accessing
Dashboard > Tools > Theme File Editor > style.css

But it hasn’t worked for me.

[Robin W]

try adding this to your theme’s additional css

.bbpress .wp-block-group-is-layout-flex {
	width: 100%;
	max-width: 100%;
	padding-left: 200px;
}

[Robin W]

probably (untested)

add_action ('plugins_loaded' , 'rew_move_reply_button' ) ;

function rew_move_reply_button () {
	remove_action ( 'bbp_template_before_single_topic', 'bsp_display_reply_button' );
	add_action ( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_content', 'bsp_display_reply_button' );
}

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

or use

Hi, sorry for the confusion. I don’t know why I can’t post a screenshot link in this forum. Never mind, I just typed it out. Below is the widget I mean:

Pulling my hair out on this one – Forums and Topics work just fine in the admin and in the front-end. However, Replies totally crash the site – on the front-end, they just fail quietly, but Add New on the Replies page in admin causes WordPress to fail. Trying to track down what could possibly cause this, because it feels really strange!

Copying over the first 100 lines or so of the stack trace to see if ANYONE has any idea what could be causing this.

Error:
Xdebug has detected a possible infinite loop, and aborted your script with a stack depth of '1024' frames
