I don’t know how technical you are, this one does the opposite

function rew_min_length ($reply_content) {
	if (strlen($reply_content)<61) {
		bbp_add_error( 'bbp_reply_content', __( '<strong>ERROR</strong>: Your reply must be at least 60 characters.', 'bbpress' ) );
	}
return $reply_content ;
}

add_filter( 'bbp_new_reply_pre_content', 'rew_min_length' );

[Robin W]

I mean it would require someone writing some code

[burhi]

Okay thanks.

Have a code?

[Robin W]

the includes/forum/template.php has a function called bbp_get_forum_class which adds classes, but as far as I can see it is never used.

bbp_list_forums in the same template has

// Subforum classes
			$subforum_classes      = array( 'bbp-forum-link' );
			$subforum_classes      = apply_filters( 'bbp_list_forums_subforum_classes', $subforum_classes, $sub_forum->ID );

			// This could use bbp_get_forum_class() eventually...
			$subforum_classes_attr = 'class="' . implode( ' ', array_map( 'sanitize_html_class', $subforum_classes ) ) . '"';

so looks like this is a plan?

anyway you could use the line listed above

$subforum_classes = apply_filters( 'bbp_list_forums_subforum_classes', $subforum_classes, $sub_forum->ID );

to add a call to that function

sorry that’s then best I can do

[Robin W]

not possible without additional code

[Afreko Media]

Hi again Robin,

Trying my luck now as it’s no longer for the bbpress part of the page but I’m facing a similar issue with a post carousel I have.

I tried editing the css code you provided me but with no luck.

Any suggestion?

Thank you,
Kev

[Robin W]

basically bbpress has the ability to add columns via a filter

This should do it

add_filter("bbp_admin_replies_column_headers", 'rew_IP_column_add');
add_filter("manage_reply_posts_custom_column", 'rew_IP_column_value', 10, 3);

function rew_IP_column_add($columns)  {
	$new = array();
  foreach($columns as $key => $title) {
    if ($key=='bbp_reply_forum') // Put the forum ID column before the Replies forum column
      $new['rew_id'] = 'IP Address';
    $new[$key] = $title;
  }
  return $new;
}
	
function rew_IP_column_value($column_name, $id) {
		if ($column_name == 'rew_id') echo get_post_meta( $id, '_bbp_author_ip', true );
}

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

Now I’m trying to hide the pagination of the output

My startpage has the page ID 35
I’m trying to use this css to hide the pagination only on the startpage
.page-id-35, a.page-numbers, .page-numbers.current, .page-numbers.dots, .bbp-pagination-count {display:none!important;}

The css works fine, but the addition .page-id-35 does not work
Does anyone see an error?
Thanks
Matthias

[Matthias]

I found this code and can now show five popular entries on my frontpage 🙂
// Top five of bbpress on startpage
function rk_top_five_view() {
bbp_register_view( ‘top-five’, __( ‘5 Most Popular Topics’ ), array(
‘meta_key’ => ‘_bbp_reply_count’,
‘posts_per_page’ => ‘5’ ,
‘ max_num_pages’ => ‘1’,
‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num’ ),
false );
}

add_action( ‘bbp_register_views’, ‘rk_top_five_view’ );

Thanks
Matthias

@lflier
Wow, this really solves the issue with Visual Editor content styling. Thank you very much!

unction bbp_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
    $args['tinymce'] = array( 
            'content_css' => '/wp-content/themes/mytheme/css/tinymce-editor.css',
        );
    return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor' );

How to add this to: https://codex.bbpress.org/enable-visual-editor/ ?

[Matthias]

I’m using this shortcode on my site.
[bbp-single-view id=’popular’]
Is there a way to show only 5 popular threads instead of 10?
I just tried the following code with no sucess 🙁
[bbp-single-view id=’popular’ max='5']

[Robin W]

not certain this will work, but put this in the custom css area of your theme

#bbpress-forums ul li::before {
content : none !important ;
}

[crzyhrse]

Just to add the function @Robin W offers still works… I added span style to the text to tweak it…

It also works this way for text after on the forum list page:

add_action ('bbp_template_after_forums_index' , 'follow_up' ) ;

Function follow_up () {
Echo '<div class="entry-content"><span style="color: #666666;">Here is my followup text.</span></div>' ;
}

[Robin W]

just looked at the new code – try

remove_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_content', 'bbp_make_clickable', 40);
remove_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_content', 'bbp_make_clickable', 40); 

[burhi]

Hi,

remove_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_content', 'bbp_make_clickable', 4);
remove_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_content', 'bbp_make_clickable', 4); 

not work bbpress 2.6.4

is there any new code?

[BrokenPixel]

I’m never quite sure if I should add to a post that has the same problem, but is obviously unanswered for a long while, or post a new topic. But… our forum also has a very similar issue so it seems sensible to add it here.

For us, it seems to be specific to text-align (left, right or centre) and for “non-admin” logged in users.

It displays the html code as is, rather than using it to display the correct text alignment. All other html options in the visual editor we’ve tested so far seem to work – it’s just the text alignment that doesn’t. And only for non-admin users – the html works as it should if an admin user posts.

<p style=”text-align: right;”>right align</p>

Hoping for a solution? Am on current versions of bbpress, wordpress and bbp style pack and php version 7.3

[Robin W]

so you couldput this in your functions file of your child theme, it takes out then new filter and puts back the old one

remove_filter( 'bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user', 'bbp_format_buddypress_notifications', 10, 8 );
add_filter( 'bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user', 'rew_format_buddypress_notifications', 10, 5 );

function rew_format_buddypress_notifications( $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items, $format = 'string' ) {

	// New reply notifications
	if ( 'bbp_new_reply' === $action ) {
		$topic_id    = bbp_get_reply_topic_id( $item_id );
		$topic_title = bbp_get_topic_title( $topic_id );
		$topic_link  = wp_nonce_url( add_query_arg( array( 'action' => 'bbp_mark_read', 'topic_id' => $topic_id ), bbp_get_reply_url( $item_id ) ), 'bbp_mark_topic_' . $topic_id );
		$title_attr  = __( 'Topic Replies', 'bbpress' );

		if ( (int) $total_items > 1 ) {
			$text   = sprintf( __( 'You have %d new replies', 'bbpress' ), (int) $total_items );
			$filter = 'bbp_multiple_new_subscription_notification';
		} else {
			if ( !empty( $secondary_item_id ) ) {
				$text = sprintf( __( 'You have %d new reply to %2$s from %3$s', 'bbpress' ), (int) $total_items, $topic_title, bp_core_get_user_displayname( $secondary_item_id ) );
			} else {
				$text = sprintf( __( 'You have %d new reply to %s',             'bbpress' ), (int) $total_items, $topic_title );
			}
			$filter = 'bbp_single_new_subscription_notification';
		}

		// WordPress Toolbar
		if ( 'string' === $format ) {
			$return = apply_filters( $filter, '<a href="' . esc_url( $topic_link ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( $title_attr ) . '">' . esc_html( $text ) . '</a>', (int) $total_items, $text, $topic_link );

		// Deprecated BuddyBar
		} else {
			$return = apply_filters( $filter, array(
				'text' => $text,
				'link' => $topic_link
			), $topic_link, (int) $total_items, $text, $topic_title );
		}

		do_action( 'bbp_format_buddypress_notifications', $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items );

		return $return;
	}
}

[hydrogriff]

The current support bbPress has a neat theme. It will be helpful if we can refer it for the best practices and customization. I searched and could not find the source code for the forum’s theme or WordPress’s support theme. Where to find it? Is it open source?

[hydrogriff]

My bbPress installation is customized a little and has subscribe and favourite buttons in a different place. Since 2.6 extra favourite and subscribe links are appearing in the lead topic header. Is there a way to remove the default ones and keep the ones generated by <?php bbp_topic_favorite_link();?> and <?php bbp_topic_subscription_link(); ?>?

[Robin W]

ok, so you could use

Private groups

then when you set up each forum ‘I put the Forum creating shortcode on a page.’ you could also set up a group for the forum, add the creator as a member and give him permission to create topics.

It is a but labor intensive, but would work.

How many forums are you planning ?

[theicebooky]

I use User Role Editor to allow subscriber to add Forums. Then, I put the Forum creating shortcode on a page.

I’m using bbpress not buddypress.

However, I want to restrict the Topic creator to only be able to create a Topic inside of the Forum they created. Is there a way to do that?? Thanks!!

[Robin W]

ok, try this instead

#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-info
			{
				font-size:  10px !important ;
			}
		 
			#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-topic-count{
				font-size: 10px !important ;
			}

			#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-reply-count{
				font-size:  10px !important ;

			}

			#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-freshness{
				font-size:  10px !important ;
			}

[Chuckie]

In an attempt to manually indicate that a given forum has sub forums I added the following to the forum description:

Have you found a bug in the Midweek Editor? Or do you have a suggestion for a new feature? Then this is the forum to use. Sub forums: <a href="https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/support-forums/forum/meeting-schedule-assistant/midweek-editor/midweek-editor-styles/"><em>Custom Templates</em></a>, <a href="https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/support-forums/forum/meeting-schedule-assistant/midweek-editor/sample-midweek-editor-styles/"><em>Custom Templates – Samples</em></a>, <a href="https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/support-forums/forum/meeting-schedule-assistant/midweek-editor/monthly-workbook-information/"><em>Monthly Workbook Information</em></a>

It works. The problem is if I add new lines into the description they get stripped.

[dotplus]

Hi Robin,

If I put it in the CSS section of my theme it doesn’t work. Is there another place where I can put this code? Thanks!

[mvaneijgen]

Sadly I had to publish my site with the old 2.5.x I’ve managed this by changing the version number of the plugin in bbpress.php and readme.txt to some insane version number which will never be hit in the near future.

I would still love some pointers on how to implement the pagination of treaded replies, which works with the hack for 2.5.x version of bbpress.
