I think I found a solution that makes me confused.. It works if I add the forum using shortcode first, and then add pictures.

[user8472]

I run:
Wordpress 6.4.2
bbpress 2.6.9
bbPress WP Tweaks 1.4.4

When I remove the shortcode for the single forum. The images work again.

[user8472]

So I added a forum on a wordpress page using shortcode. After that all the images on the page (outside the forum) disappeared. And I cannot add any – well I can add images, but they will not show (and no error messages). I have searched the posts here but cannot see an answer to this issue.

I run the widget for all forums at the bottom of the page.

[Robin W]

so with root set as chats and a chats page and the shortcode, you can then add your desired shortcode above the forums one.

it is unusual to see index.php included in a url

https://meltdowncnc.com/wordpress2/index.php/forums/topic/website-test-committee-input/

what theme are you using?

[electech1313]

I deactivated AWPCP. When I hover over the edit button, it shows the same link as before. It now takes me to the Edit Page with only the shortcode [AWPCPEDITAD] showing.

[Robin W]

ok, so if you hover the mouse over the edit bitton, you should see in the bottom left hand corner where that button will take you – ie a url such as

https://meltdowncnc.com/forums/topic/xxx/edit

can you tell me what you one says please

I recently installed bbpress and AWPCP Classifieds. Whenever a user clicks the edit button to edit their post, it takes them to a page that asks for the Ad email and access key. This page is default with AWPCP and is called -Edit Ad. Inside that page is the shortcode [AWPCPEDITAD]. I disabled the AWPCP plugin to test and the result was when a user clicked the edit button, it then just shows the shortcode text from the -Edit Ad page. I am little more than a beginner when it comes to web development. I have built a few websites but they are all basic and mostly wordpress sites. This is the site address if you would like to look at it. https://meltdowncnc.com/wordpress2/

The site is for testing. Hopefully once it is done, I can put it into service for my club. Thanks if anyone can help.

I have created a forum page with the URL ‘/chats’ and titled it “Forums”. Also, I have added a heading to the page and inserted the shortcode ([bbp-forum-index]) directly below it. Additionally, I removed the root slug option in the Forum settings page and left it as a blank field, saving the changes. As a result, the root slug was automatically generated as ‘forums’.

is it correct?

hi Robin. Can we add these 2 codes to functions.php of the child theme?

[Robin W]

ok, so you can add text below the heading, just create this as normal text.

Then where you want the forums put in the shortcode

[bbp-forum-index]

If you are using blocks, then there is a shortcode block you should use.

[testdevs]

No. could you please provide any option or code to add a shortcode on this page.

[Robin W]

ok, it could be due to loots of things, not possible to resolve without site access top a live example.

But try accessing from a different browser (maybe cache on your browser), or clearing cache on your site if you have it.

otherwise try :

#bbpress-forums span.bbp-admin-links a, #bbpress-forums span.bbp-admin-links {
	font-size: 13px !important;
}

Hi, I want to highlight the first topic that the user creates to ask his doubts so that it can stand out from other replies. I tried this code but I don’t know what’s missing here. I could not find the CSS classes for the first topics in their documentation.

.bbpress-forums .bbp-topics:first-child {
	
	background-color: #000;
  font-weight: bold;
}

Additionally, I want to highlight the best reply either by changing it’s color or by pinging it to the main topic so that new visitors won’t have to check every other reply. It will be helpful for the new users.

is there any way I can solve these two issues using css:

1. Highlight the first issue so that it stands out from the crowd of replies
2. Highlight or ping the correct/solution contained reply thread so that new visitors won’t have to read everything.

[Robin W]

The ‘Forums’ heading is created by your theme.

which method in the below are you using to create the forum page?

https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum/ item 3

[testdevs]

we need to add a shortcode on this page https://www.clevercafecompany.com.au/chats/ above ‘Forums’ heading.
Is it possible to add through in function.php?

Certainly! In the WordPress REST API, creating a new topic and assigning it to a parent forum involves utilizing the wp/v2 endpoints for both forums and topics. To achieve this, you can follow these steps:

### 1. Get the Forum ID
Firstly, you’ll need to know the ID of the parent forum to which you want to assign the new topic. You can retrieve this ID by making a GET request to the forums endpoint, typically /wp/v2/forums.

For example:
`http
GET /wp/v2/forums
`

### 2. Create a New Topic
Make a POST request to the topics endpoint, usually /wp/v2/topics, providing the necessary parameters including title, content, and forum to link it to the specific forum.

For example:
`http
POST /wp/v2/topics
Content-Type: application/json

{
“title”: “New Topic Title”,
“content”: “Content of the new topic”,
“forum”: <forum_id>
}
`
Replace <forum_id> with the ID of the parent forum retrieved from step 1.

### Example Using cURL
Using cURL, the process might look something like this:
`bash
curl -X POST -H “Content-Type: application/json” -d ‘{“title”:”New Topic Title”,”content”:”Content of the new topic”,”forum”:1}’ https://yoursite.com/wp-json/wp/v2/topics
`
Replace https://yoursite.com with your actual WordPress site URL and 1 with the ID of the desired forum.

Remember to authenticate the API request if your WordPress site requires authentication for creating new content.

This approach allows you to create a new topic and assign it to a parent forum via the WordPress REST API. Adjust the endpoint URLs and parameters as needed based on your specific WordPress configuration.

put this in the custom css of the style pack plugin.

#bbpress-forums span.bbp-admin-links a, #bbpress-forums span.bbp-admin-links {
	font-size: 13px;
}

I have 3 categories (main forums) and a bunch of sub forums. I would like to display 1 main forum/category, the blogs, separate from the rest on the front page, but I don’t find the option to do it.

This only works for specific forums, not categories [bsp-display-topic-index show=”5″ forum=”10,11,12]
and this style adds a different style (the original) that I don’t want [bsp-display-topic-index].

So, how to display one or more categories using short templates?

[Robin W]

sort of…

It is doable, but requires a series of steps and some code.

I am trying in spare time to get this into a workable solution, but needs more work.

[Robin W]

without a pluguin

Custom Capabilities

with a plugin

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>roles

[Robin W]

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

So where does the “add_shortcode )’… go?

[Robin W]

try adding this to custom css

# Mobile
only screen and (min-width: 480px) {
fieldset.bbp-form p {
width : 20px ;
}
}
