PekMez your solution does work, but still modifying the core code will be overwritten on the upcoming update, and we will probably forget about this in the future. So after upgrade our BBPress version we forget to re-modify this code.

Anyway how about now, is there a solution for BreadCrumbs without modifying the core?

[tekgazet]

Sure. I used the bbp_new_topic_pre_content Filter Hook and the code I used is as under:

 //code to limit number of characters in topic contents to 500 characters
 
function tm_limit_topic_content( $topic_content )
{
    /* Check for number of characters in topic contents  */
    if (strlen($topic_content) > 500) {
		$revised_content = substr($topic_content, 0, 500);
		}	
	else {
		$revised_content = $topic_content ;
	}		
 
    return $revised_content ;
}
 
add_filter( 'bbp_new_topic_pre_content', 'tm_limit_topic_content' );

I want to display only the following two on buddypress activity.

※When creating topics for BBP.
※When comment for topics.

What should I write in “※” below?

wp-content>plugins>buddypress>bp-templates>bp-legacy>buddypress>members>single>activity.php
<?php if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘activity’ ) . ‘&action=※※’ ) ) : ?>

I want to limit the number of characters in the Topic Content Text Area in bbPress to a maximum limit (of say 500 characters). How can I do it?

I tried to do it by using the maxlength attribute of textarea (bbp_topic_content) in the stylesheet file, but this attribute is not working (may perhaps be because this attribute was included in HTML5 version only). However, if I use this in Developer Tools in Chrome while inspecting the text area for Topic Content, it works fine; but that is only for testing and I am not able to make a permanent change by editing the source file or through any plugin.

Other two methods could be javascript to check on local machine the number of characters being entered, but I understand that this can easily be cheated by disabling javascript. Moreover, I am not fully sure how to do it.

Third method could be to use for action or filter hook. Can you please suggest me which hook to be used and sample code, if any?

Thanks in advance.

@robin-w , thanks for your advise. RC7 partially solved the problem.

This is before updating topic (post_id:54878) in admin area:

mysql> select * from forum_postmeta where meta_key="_bbp_subscription" ; 
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+
| meta_id | post_id | meta_key          | meta_value |
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+
.....
.....
|   35265 |   54878 | _bbp_subscription | 11743      |
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+

This is after updating the topic (post_id:54878) in admin area:

mysql> select * from forum_postmeta where meta_key="_bbp_subscription" ; 
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+
| meta_id | post_id | meta_key          | meta_value |
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+
.....
.....
|   35265 |   54878 | _bbp_subscription | 11743      |
|   35280 |   54879 | _bbp_subscription | 1          |
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+

So, the user subscription is there but there is a new unnecessary row, the admin user is subscribed to a non-existing topic. post_id=54879 does not exist.

Who can we report bugs?

You have been a great help.

I read through and tried https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-styling-crib/

What I did,
1. installed Simple Custom CSS plugin – all ok
2. insert the below code. and changed the font-size: 1.1em; to 1.6em

#bbpress-forums div.odd, #bbpress-forums ul.odd { background-color: #fbfbfb; } #bbpress-forums div.even, #bbpress-forums ul.even { background-color: #fff; }

IF post is sticky or super sticky, then

.bbp-topics-front ul.super-sticky, .bbp-topics ul.super-sticky, .bbp-topics ul.sticky, .bbp-forum-content ul.sticky { background-color: #ffffe0 !important; font-size: 1.1em; }

but the rest doesn’t seem to work…especially
Number 5. Various texts

bbpress-forums .bbp-topic-content p, bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content p { font-size: 12px;

I change the font-size: 20px

nothing happens. 

what did I do wrong? basically I wanted to increase font size for all forum section from 1 to 8. How please.

Thank you in advance

[shubh2018]

When i create new topic it shows normally no issues!!
But i had a huge data that needed to be imported on the same site. I used WP All Import Plugin for the import and I imported the data into topics… Actually I only require the topics section so there is forum I want to show… I managed the look. But after the import finished. I cant see the list of topics that meant to be seen on my homepage. Though I see the topics in the sidebar under related topics. I used shortcode [bbp-topic-index] to show the topic on my homepage.
I can also see the topic in my wordpress topics section…
So, I decided to take a look in my database. I saw that earlier when i created topics it was stored in wp_posts table but now after import all that new data is in wp_pmxi_ tables and topics were in wp_pmxi_topics table. I don’t know if that supposed to be but I cant solve this issue… I even imported data again in posts which then went to wp_posts table in database but ofcourse wordpress was taking that as posts not bbpress topics…
Can please someone help me out?

[Robin W]

if you have put the code in the plugin – that’s it !

On a load, the code looks to see if it is a topic or reply, and if so turns off pingbacks

[cdwed]

OK I added the plug-in. Can you give some specific instructions on how to enter the code?

Do I do this for each forum page?

TNX Robin.

@robin-w how much i have to pay for that code?

testing some code…
edit: YEP! Code tag is working .

[Robin W]

no.

The simplest way is to use this plugin

Code Snippets

and put the code in there

[xavier_bs]

add_action( 'private_title_format', 'xbs_hide_second_prefix_title' );
function xbs_hide_second_prefix_title( $title ) {
   $prefix = str_replace( '%s', '', $title );
   return "<span class=\"private-title\">$prefix</span>%s";
}

and in CSS:

.private-title + .private-title {
    display: none;
}

[Robin W]

I just looked in trac, and fixing this is now a 2.8 goal.

However this looks like it might help

// Force ping_status on bbPress post types 
add_filter( 'pings_open', 'rew_force_ping_status' ); 

function rew_force_ping_status( $open, $post_id = 0 ) { 

// Get the post type of the post ID 
$post_type = get_post_type( $post_id ); 
// Default return value is what is passed in $open 
$retval = $open; 
// Only force for bbPress post types 
switch ( $post_type ) { 
case bbp_get_forum_post_type() : 
case bbp_get_topic_post_type() : 
case bbp_get_reply_post_type() : 
	$retval = false; 
break; 
// Allow override of the override 
return apply_filters( 'rew_force_ping_status', $retval, $open, $post_id, $post_type ); 
} 

[Robin W]

not within free help, sorry, but if you have a way to allocate I could probably write some code cheaply

OK guys, probably not really relevant now, but I experience the same issue and found this thread.

Here is solution I use:

add_filter( 'wp_mail', function( $args = array() ) {
	/**
	 * If WordPress wants to send an email to bbp_get_do_not_reply_address() we check
	 * if $search_header is set. If it is, we take its value (email address) and set
	 * it as "to" address. Also we unset the $search_header.
	 */
	$search_header = 'Bcc:';

	if ( bbp_get_do_not_reply_address() === $args['to'] && is_array( $args['headers'] ) ) {
		foreach ( $args['headers'] as $key => $header ) {
			if ( false !== stripos( $header, $search_header ) ) {
				$args['to'] = trim( str_replace( $search_header, '', $header ) );
				unset( $args['headers'][ $key ] );
				break;
			}
		}
	}

	return $args;
} );

The space is where the site is trying to show your avatar

<a href="http://logicbenchmarks.com/forums/users/logicbenchmarks/" title="View Admin's profile" class="bbp-author-avatar" rel="nofollow"></a>

which is somehow not showing – no idea why, but suspect you have code doing this

[John James Jacoby]

Hi there!

If you’re looking for an off-the-shelf solution, BuddyPress and the Private Messages component sounds like the best one. You’d still need to tune it a bit with some custom code to lock it down exactly how you’ve described, but it gives you isolated message threads with invitees, notifications, an inbox, etc…

Technically, in the next major version of bbPress (2.6) you could use the new engagements API to keep those conversations a forum topic, but limit them to specific invited users, but that’s probably more work and less obvious to end users what it’s for & doing.

[writersabroad]

I created a list of 5 forums some with sub forums and used the short code to display the index of forums on a page which I added to my navigation menu. Today it is only showing the first forum and none of the others. I’ve tried refreshing the page, renewing the page with the shortcode and gone back over some of the steps (I’ve been trying to remove a sidebar from the forum page) but nothing seems to work. All the forums are listed and I haven’t changed any of the settings within the forums…

I’m using the Ruby theme – but have tried it with twenty fifteen, sixteen and seventeen and the problem persists. I’m using bbpress Version 2.5.14 and the bbpress style plug in Version 4.0.3 which was updated today.

My site is not published as I’m still working on it, ironing out some of these issues.

Thanks for any advice

[dmalkin]

// Time Variable
$localTime = str_replace('at ', '', $localTime);

$localTime = do_shortcode('[localize_time before_local=" " after_local=" " fmt="F j, Y g:i a"]'.$localTime.'[/localize_time]');
echo $localTime;

[dmalkin]

Having a really difficult time figuring out a way to output topic reply time stamps in a users local timezone. I have a forum with global users and this is a necessity.

WP version: 4.9.8
bbPress version: 2.5.14

Currently using this plugin: Localize Time (https://wordpress.org/plugins/localize-time/)

I am wrapping the bbp_get_reply_post_date() with the shortcode [localize_time]; however, I cannot alter the format of the output date from the shortcode.

I need an alternate solution.

[Wasca]

I should also not that this is only happening in Chrome not Firefox. I’m seeing this in the console. (sanitized)

What is the best way to add login and a register link to “You must be logged in to reply to this topic”

I found this but I realized I cannot edit a code as I am very new to PHP.
Please suggest.

	<div id="no-topic-<?php bbp_topic_id(); ?>" class="bbp-no-topic">
		<div class="bbp-template-notice">
			<p><?php is_user_logged_in() ? _e( 'You cannot create new topics.', 'bbpress' ) : _e( 'You must be logged in to create new topics.', 'bbpress' ); ?></p>
		</div>
	</div>

[Robin W]

ok, take the change above out.

Then find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
Make a copy of this file to your pc

The edit this file to be this

<?php

/**
 * Replies Loop - Single Reply
 *
 * @package bbPress
 * @subpackage Theme
 */

?>
<div class='rew-border'>
<div id="post-<?php bbp_reply_id(); ?>" class="bbp-reply-header">

	<div class="bbp-meta">

		<span class="bbp-reply-post-date"><?php bbp_reply_post_date(); ?></span>

		<?php if ( bbp_is_single_user_replies() ) : ?>

			<span class="bbp-header">
				<?php _e( 'in reply to: ', 'bbpress' ); ?>
				<a class="bbp-topic-permalink" href="<?php bbp_topic_permalink( bbp_get_reply_topic_id() ); ?>"><?php bbp_topic_title( bbp_get_reply_topic_id() ); ?></a>
			</span>

		<?php endif; ?>

		<a href="<?php bbp_reply_url(); ?>" class="bbp-reply-permalink">#<?php bbp_reply_id(); ?></a>

		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_admin_links' ); ?>

		<?php bbp_reply_admin_links(); ?>

		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_admin_links' ); ?>

	</div><!-- .bbp-meta -->

</div><!-- #post-<?php bbp_reply_id(); ?> -->

<div <?php bbp_reply_class(); ?>>

	<div class="bbp-reply-author">

		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_author_details' ); ?>

		<?php bbp_reply_author_link( array( 'sep' => '<br />', 'show_role' => true ) ); ?>

		<?php if ( bbp_is_user_keymaster() ) : ?>

			<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_author_admin_details' ); ?>

			<div class="bbp-reply-ip"><?php bbp_author_ip( bbp_get_reply_id() ); ?></div>

			<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_admin_details' ); ?>

		<?php endif; ?>

		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details' ); ?>

	</div><!-- .bbp-reply-author -->

	<div class="bbp-reply-content">

		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_content' ); ?>

		<?php bbp_reply_content(); ?>

		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_content' ); ?>

	</div><!-- .bbp-reply-content -->

</div><!-- .reply -->
</div>

<div class='rew-spacer'><p/> </div>

Then put this in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

Finally in your theme’s custom css area put

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies {
border : none ;
}		

.rew-border {
border: 1px solid #eee;
}
