that line of code is related to the replies widget – as a test try disabling that widget and see if it makes a difference

[Julianna]

Hi

I’m having the same issue with notifications of replies and new topics not being sent by email.

Plugins installed:
Simple WordPress Membership
bbPress
bbp style pack (notifications enabled)
bbPress Members Only (forum set to members only with all other pages visible)
bbPress Notify (No Spam)
Check & log email (nothing logged in tests)
Code Snippets (original code above added)
Easy WP SMTP (confirmed that other emails are sending successfully, eg notification of new member registrations via Simple Membership)
WP Notification Bell (new replies ARE showing up here)

I’ve run tests with replies and new topics for a test user subscribed to everything (and directly to the topic used to test replies), and am still not getting any emails. Have, of course, checked the spam folder.

I’d appreciate any suggestions for troubleshooting.

Thank you!

Hi Robin et al.,
we are trying to start using Elementor Single Post template, but found out that “Hello theme Elementor bbpress template fix” somehow stops the template from activating (disabled all plugins, found out that now the template works and then enabled all our plugins one by one).

Question 1: What does the plugin actually do? 🙂 I remember activating the plugin for some real need, but now it looks like the forums works just fine.

Question 2: What could we do to get the template working (apart from deactivating a probably vital plugin mentioned earlier..). I saw one guy solving the same issue by adding a short code to a page, but at least just inserting a short code for the forum index did nothing for us.

Our (staging) site and a Post which is affected by this https://staging11.pokerifoorumi.org/derk-van-luijk-nousi-ept-monte-carlon-paaturnauksen-voittoon/

All our plugins are up-to date, and so is our Hello theme.

Many thanks for the great product, as well as your help. Much appreciated.

Allowable codes – {site_title} {title} {author} {content} {excerpt} {url} {forum_name}

so

{forum_name}

Hi
I tried your plugin, what would be the code I need to write in order to get the forum title?

New Topic Email Title
[Academia Astrologia Avanzada MB] {title}

The subject of the notification email
Allowable codes – {site_title} {title}

[Robin W]

use this css

.bbp-login-form {
	display: none !important;
}

[neofilm]

Is there CSS or some code I can use in code snippet to remove it?

[neofilm]

Hello, I’m very excited to use BBPress on my website! My website already has a login form. So, I really need the login form removed from BBPress because for some reason it doesn’t work. After putting in the username and password it redirects to my login page where they have to re-enter the information.

The “Log in” button is “ok” since it directs to the login page. But, I would rather not have that either since I already have login button in my navigation.

I searched a few times on this over the last few days and even asked the plugin developers I’m using if they knew of a way to resolve this. I can’t find anything. I have Code Snippet plugin if someone wants to offer some code for that. Or is there some CSS that would just hide all that and remove the space it occupies?

Website is VeganLinked.com and there’s a link to forums in the very top navigation and footer.
Newest version of WP and BBPress.

[Robin W]

You keep repeating the issue – I fully understand the issue.

1. I am not paid to do any of this – I try and spend around hour a day helping others as people have helped me over the years, but I have a full time job.

2. I have bbpress and 6 other plugins that I try to help.

3. I receive 30-40 emails a day on many things, and I do not keep old emails.

4. If I had access to your site a. I would have deleted any details b. It is not up to me to get you site working, if I ask you for details I do not expect to have to look them up myself.

so if you are running both my plugin and adding snippets you are very unlikely to get to any solution. Consider my plugin to be blue paint, and you snippet to be red paint. If you run both, the room you want to paint might end up red because that is the only color that got painted, or red because it was pained blue first and then painted red. Only by having one bit of code running do you get a true test.

so to fix your site.

1. do not have any other attempts at solutions
2. use the auto login in my style pack
3. tell me if it works in staging – ie it goes to login and then to the topic
4. tell me if it works in live – – ie it goes to login and then to the topic
5. tell me the settings you have in

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>plugin information>subscription emails

copy/paste here or send to me by email

for both live and staging

If you do not understand what this means, the use google to translate or find someone who can understand this.

Added @contemplate’s solution to bp-custom.php, time has broken something as there is now no change in behaviour.

[Robin W]

that code will do nothing useful, but i do not intend to spend time on other peoples solutions.

The bbp style pack plugin contains the solution, but until you tell me how you have it set up, and give me consistent answers as to what it works on and doesn’t work on I cannot help further

Ce code ne servira à rien, mais je n’ai pas l’intention de passer du temps sur les solutions des autres.

Le plugin bbp style pack contient la solution, mais jusqu’à ce que vous me disiez comment vous l’avez configuré et que vous me donniez des réponses cohérentes sur ce sur quoi il fonctionne et ne fonctionne pas, je ne peux pas vous aider davantage

Hi!
I have just installed bbPress, configured the settings, and created some categories/forums, but when I go to the link where the forum should have been, I only see a blank page.

I have tested with the shortcode, and added that to a blank page. That works, but links to posts and categories open up as blank pages

[itsmifred]

yes Robin,that was a mistake. Sorry for this confusion. They both work similar.

I also tried to put forums public + snippet to redirect visitors to login.

But the result is exactly the same. After login there is no redirect to the topic.

here is the snippet if you are curious :

/**
* Redirect bbPress pages for visitors
*/
function yzc_redirect_bbpress_to_login_page() {
    if ( ! is_user_logged_in() && ( function_exists( 'is_bbpress') && is_bbpress() ) ) {
        // Set Redirection Url
        $redirect_url = 'https://www.website.com/login';
        wp_redirect( $redirect_url );
        exit();
    }
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'yzc_redirect_bbpress_to_login_page' );

Do you think possible to redirect to private topic after login ?

regards

Hi all,

I’m having white pages issue while I setup a very simple forum on that testing sub-domain:
https://greensquare.c-serp.fr/
https://greensquare.c-serp.fr/forums/
https://greensquare.c-serp.fr/forums/forum/gestion-de-la-copro/

My current configuration
– WordPress: 6.5.2 – multi-site
– PHP/MySQL: 7.4.30 / 5.5.5
– Theme: TwentyTwentyFour Child
– Enabled extensions: bbPress (2.6.9), WordPress Importer (0.8.2)
– Enabled network extensions: Comet Cache (170220), Error Log Monitor (1.7.7), Fixed Widget (6.2.3), Forum_wordpress_fr (4.2), Solid Security Basic (9.3.2), WP-Sweep (1.1.8), WP Dashboard Notes (1.0.11)

I’ve read several topics including that one (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blank-topic-pages-on-bbpress-while-using-twenty-twenty-two-theme/) I’ve put the code in my functions.php child, but it didn’t get any better. (I removed it)

But, I’m not too good at geek things, so I’ll appreciate any advices, clues if you read that topic, so I can enjoy testing bbPress extension.

Cheers.

[Robin W]

for template layout see https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum/ item 8

for general styling use :

bbp style pack

[Robin W]

you would need to add this to your additional/custom css

/*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;
	}

.bbp-topic-voice-count {
	display: none;
}

.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;
}

and then amend loop-topics.php as foillows

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

transfer this to your pc and edit

<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.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

Hi Robin! so sorry for the late reply. Hope you enjoyed your holiday. I was switching hosting plans. I moved from shared hosting to vps hosting. Also, I changed the wording for the buttons in the forum button section of your style pack. Since I started my website over, I am not sure what code I used to change the subscriptions name section in the profile page.

[Robin W]

add_filter ('bbp_get_statistics', 'rew_count_forums' , 10 , 3) ;
function bsp_count_forums ($statistics, $r, $args ) {
	//fix counts for forums to show private forums if user can read them and not error if site is only private forums
	// forums
	if ( ! empty( $r['count_forums'] ) ) {
		$private = bbp_get_private_status_id();
		$all_forums  = wp_count_posts( bbp_get_forum_post_type() );

		// Published (publish)
		$forums['publish'] = $all_forums->publish ;
		$forums['private'] = 0 ;
		if ( current_user_can( 'read_private_forums' ) ) {

			// Private
			$forums['private'] = $all_forums->{$private} ;
			
		}
		//now add the two 
		$statistics['forum_count'] = $forums['publish'] + $forums['private'] ;
		$statistics['forum_count_int'] = $statistics['forum_count'] ;
		}
// Filter & return
return (array) apply_filters( 'bsp_count_forums', $statistics, $r, $args );

}

[itsmifred]

Hi Robin,

thank you so much for your work, here is where I am :

. no more warning Forums
. but count was double ; Tell 20 when there is 10 forums…

I checked and it was because I had a previous snippet ; when I disable that one, your code seems to be well working. Here is the previous one (made because without it only public forums were counted). Can you confirm please I can delete it and keep only yours ?

`function bbpress_include_private_posts_count($statistics, $r, $args){
if( isset($statistics[‘forum_count’]) ){
$private = wp_count_posts(“forum”)->private;
if( !empty($private) ){
$statistics[‘forum_count’] = $private + $statistics[‘forum_count’];
}
}
return $statistics;
}
add_filter(‘bbp_get_statistics’, ‘bbpress_include_private_posts_count’, 999, 3);

[Robin W]

can you try

add_filter ('bbp_get_statistics', 'rew_count_forums' , 10 , 3) ;

function rew_count_forums ($statistics, $r, $args ) {
	//fix counts for forums to show private forums if user can read them and not error if site is only private forums
	// forums
	if ( ! empty( $r['count_forums'] ) ) {
		$private = bbp_get_private_status_id();
		$all_forums  = wp_count_posts( bbp_get_forum_post_type() );

		// Published (publish)
		$forums['publish'] = $all_forums->publish ;
		$forums['private'] = 0 ;
		if ( current_user_can( 'read_private_forums' ) ) {

			// Private
			$forums['private'] = $all_forums->{$private} ;
			
		}
		//now add the two 
		$statistics['forum_count'] = $forums['publish'] + $forums['private'] ;
		}
// Filter & return
return (array) apply_filters( 'rew_count_forums', $statistics, $r, $args );

}

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

Code Snippets

[itsmifred]

yes it is, the [bbp-stats] shortcode…

My idea is just to communicate URL of this page to moderators whose role is more to facilitate trade than to control it (2/3 members in the private of a fellow workers’ group).
That way they could easily,simply and clearly get an overview of the forums…

in that way, I would say it is more appropriate just logged in…

[Robin W]

Isn’t that what it’s supposed to do?

Honestly not a bit of code I’ve looked at in 10 years. I am presuming this is the [bbp-stats] shortcode that is doing this? and if so do you want to show this to all users, or just logged in ?

[Robin W]

GDPR is less difficult to interpret than say the stateside ‘can-spam’ regs.

according to

https://gdpr.eu/email-encryption/#:~:text=And%20you%20must%20also%20make,is%20it%20violating%20the%20GDPR.

‘And you must also make it easy for people to change their mind and opt-out. Only if a marketing email does not present the option to unsubscribe, is sent to someone who never signed up for it, or does not advertise a service related to one the receiver uses is it violating the GDPR.’

Can-spam is much less clear.

Having a “unsubscribe from this forum/topic” link?” should be doable, but I’d not do this for free, as it is a bunch of code I’d need to work out, as it would need to fire code from a webiste link, probably using a unique code – lots of work.

[Robin W]

Unless you are using the plugin or bespoke code to load that template, I fail to see how that can be, the error quotes a file within Youzify

plugins/youzify/includes/public/templates/bbpress/content-statistics.php on line 33

but quite happy for you to pursue as you feel fit

[Robin W]

the warning is

Warning: Undefined array key “forum_count” in /home/clients/3db470ac3c186374a924a94534df90ab/sites/test.com/wp-content/plugins/youzify

which says the undefined array key is in the plugin youzify

sorry I cannot help further
