Hi folks. I am trying to add the shortcode for a single forum [bbp-single-forum id=$id ]

However I cannot find the ‘forum id’ anywhere.

The bbpress install is new and I have only created one test forum. Nowhere is the ‘test forum id’ listed. I can only see a field for ‘order’ which is by default ‘0’. So I tried the forum id as 0 but nothing appears on the page, I have also tried the id as 1 as it is the only forum created.
Please note that the shortcode for showing ‘all forums’ work as expected on the page.

Any thoughts?
Thank you.

Big thanks!

This worked for me

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author .bbp-author-name {
  width: 100%;
}

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author .bbp-author-role {
  width: 100%;
}

Hi!

I don’t know if this is possible, but I would like to replace the text editor in reply of bbpress by another wysiwyg html editor like this one:

https://summernote.org/

I have some trouble right now. The users on my web site report me that they can’t put any html code in their post like the balise ul/li. I edit their post and repost. The code appear just fine. They can’t use a simple <br/> but I can. Is it the editor of bbpress? Or a permission thing?

Another admin have the same problem also. They post a first reply with a ul/li. The list appear just fine. He post the same code after that one and the content between the ul/li just desappear.

Thank you for your help.

I was able to resolve the Group Forum issue by following this: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/#a-set-up-sitewide-forums-only

Thanks.

Try adding this to the custom css of your theme

input[type="text"], input[type="email"], input[type="password"], input[type="tel"], input[type="number"], textarea, select {
	margin-bottom: 0rem;
	padding: 0px;
}

[Robin W]

It is that the name is so short that bbpress can fit it in the space

you could fix using

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-author, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author {
	width: 100px;
}

in the custom css area of your theme

[Robin W]

@nickds the issue is site/theme specific – I cant fix everyone’s theme issues !!

a quick look at your site and the forums page appears to have issues with your theme performing calculations on the css eg

.entry .entry-content > *, .entry .entry-summary > *, .entry .entry-summary > .wp-block-group > .wp-block-group__inner-container > *, .entry .entry-content > .wp-block-group > .wp-block-group__inner-container > * {
	max-width: calc(6 * (100vw / 12) - 28px);
}

Found it 😉
…/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/widgets.php
About line 135 you can add some links…

<div class="bbp-logged-in">
<a href="<?php bbp_user_profile_url( bbp_get_current_user_id() ); ?>" class="submit user-submit"><?php echo get_avatar( bbp_get_current_user_id(), '40' ); ?></a>
<h4><?php bbp_user_profile_link( bbp_get_current_user_id() ); ?>

[Matthias]

I would like to add some links to the bbpress login widget.
Can someone point me in the right direction.
I can not even find the code of the login widget in my bbpress plugin folder…?
Thanks
Matthias

[Robin W]

no idea on the code – style pack still works

[telium]

Does the above code still work?

I tried to paste into my functions.php and don’t see any difference in breadcrumbs.

Jan 2020 – perhaps bbpress or wp code has changed?

[Robin W]

ok, still not quite sure what you are meaning, but suspect

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

and look at section 8 which talks about getting bbpress to use the template you want

[telium]

My forums can be seen at:
new.telium.io/haast/forums

In case it matters, Im using the Avada theme. (But I can just insert the shortcodes for bbpress where required)

[telium]

I’m new to WordPress and bbPress, so I apologize if my terminology isn’t quite right 🙂

I have create a pretty page and inserted the BB shortcode which shows all the forums. However, when I open one of the forums, or one of the topics, I find each opening in a fairly generic page.

Is it possible to create nice pages for these, and tell bbPress to open the forum/topic in the page I created? (I don’t like the default page).

[telium]

(I also tried converting all of my phpBB tables to utf8mb_unicode_ci but that didn’t help).

The onscreen status is very high level. Is there an import log somewhere that might provide more details- pointing to something I can fix? I’m comfortable altering the MySQL structure of phpBB if needed.

[telium]

I have a fresh bbPress install and want to import everything possible from my phpBB version 3.2.4 installation. The import runs and step 8 is importing lots of anonymous topic authors.

However, why aren’t my users importing? Based on other posts I ensure no topics/threads are attributed to founders/moderators/admins. (I created a single founder account and downgraded everyone else).

I see some references to a 3rd party import script, and other references saying its not needed. Can someone help? It’s Jan 15 2020 and I have the latest bbPress. Note sure hot to proceed.

Excerpt from log:

6.No forum subscriptions to import
5.All forum parents imported100%
5.Calculating forum hierarchy (0 through 11 of 11)0%
4.All forums imported100%
4.Converting forums (0 through 16 of 16)0%
3.No passwords to clear
2.No users to import
1.Skipping sync-table clean-up

I’m also starting to have a similar problem. Some posts (rather than replies) are being held for moderation. It would be awfully helpful if bbPress could email the admin when this happens, rather than the admin having to spot hidden posts.

This never used to happen before. I had no words in my moderation list or blacklist in comments, and a maximum of 2 links specified in the Discussion settings. A post just got held earlier today with only one link in the post, so I don’t know why this is happening. I’ve experimented with increasing the number of links allowed.

I will also consider the code snippet above – thanks for that.

@johnjamesjacoby do you have any tips on where to start tweaking? You’ve said that it’s almost correct, but I’ve no idea where to start with this code.

Hi, When a moderator edits a Topic in the WordPress Dashboard, there’s a section near the bottom with the Replies in it. However it also reveals user’s email and IP addresses.

Is there a way to hide the emails and IP’s in this section for moderators?
I’ve already hidden IP’s on the front end for mods by editing some code related to the loop-single-reply.php (more info here, thank you Robin).

Or, is there a way to make the Replies box that appears there turned off by default for moderators, under the screen options?

Thank you, Sam

Solved this with:

.fusion-content-widget-area .button {
    margin-left: 0px;
}

body .fusion-content-widget-area .button {
    margin-left: 0px;
}

[Robin W]

add this to the custom css area of your theme

#sidebar .bbp-login-form label {
	width: 200px !important ;
}

[Robin W]

so the code above (which I assume is the new color) is saved in custom css tab?

[Robin W]

just

#bbp-forum-9201 {
display : none !important ;

}

should do it

[Robin W]

yes, that’s an issue with 2.6.x where bbpress uses a min file – they are working on a fix, but in the meantime put this in the custom css tab of the style pack plugin

#bbpress-forums .status-closed, #bbpress-forums .status-closed a {
	background-color: #fdd !important;
}

Hi Robin, thanks for your reply.

I’ve tried using the CSS you provided in both the bbPress Style Pack Custom CSS tab and in my theme’s Custom CSS area and neither were successful at hiding the breadcrumbs on the forum home page.

When I inspect the breadcrumbs element I’m looking to hide/remove, I see that it’s labelled;

<span class="bbp-breadcrumb-current">Forums</span>

I would like to show the current breadcrumb on all further pages, however no breadcrumbs on the forum homepage.
