I know the subject keeps coming up, and I’ve been through the posts and I’ve added the relevant code to my functions.php all good so far.

My visual editor is inserting tags that get filtered out by BBpress. Is there any plugin that I can say a particular user can have any html? I’m wanting to add more available tags like <h1 style=”text align:center”> etc. All my efforts have failed miserably. I like BBpress, but other forum software doesn’t have these restrictions on basic text formatting.

Maybe if you can explain what the code does rather than link to an example, I haven’t a clue about arrays or what => etc means and the syntax. I just want users to be able to add heading tags and a few other basic text formatting options to tie in with their visual editor.

Thanks in advance

OK. Here is how to replicate the issue.

1. Make a forum.
2. Add 2 topic to this forum using the front-end form.

Now the structure of this forum is something like this:

-> Example forum
-> A topic example 1
-> A topic example 2

And the count is 2 topics.
I get this count of 2 topics by using the function: bbp_get_forum_topic_count(0, false).
This function is placed in bbpress/loop-single-forum.php template.

3. Go to wp-admin to the edit screen of the topic “A topic example 1”.
4. Under the “Topic Attributes” meta box, change the forum parent, by selecting “– No parent –“.
5. Update.
6. Check the forum on front-end. The count should be 1 topic but it still displays 2 topics.

[Robin W]

sorry I don’t understand the question.

you start by quoting a bbpress function, and then changing a forum and then a ?specific? topic disappears.

As a start, can you give the precise code you are using, and where you are using it, and how.

[Andrei Surdu]

I use this function to display the total topics count for a single forum: bbp_get_forum_topic_count

If I change the forum parent to –No Parent —, the topic dissapears from forum section but the count does not change. See the image below:

—————–
bbPress version: 2.5.14
WordPress version: 4.9.5

[emgb_520]

I forgot to include that I have tried editing the code without any luck.

The file I have tried editing is /wp-content/plugins/bbpress-login-register-links-on-forum-topic-pages/bbpress-login-register-links-on-forum-topic-page.php

Lines 26-72

The LOGOUT link redirects to the page the user was previously on, but the LOGIN link does not.

Please help!

[hossamhamdy]

I do accept that, it’s just the first time I ask was 5 days ago and I stopped working on the website coz I had to solve this problem first.

Here’s a link to the forum page: https://www.yt-creatorcommunity.com/forums/forum/ساحة-التفاعل/

I added a custom css to solve the picture problem, so it’s now normal but only because I edited the css codes, and about the registration the up bar still doesn’t appear so I added a widget to solve this problem, but it doesn’t look good though.

[Robin W]

I hadn’t seen that plugin before – looks useful.

Pippin is a very experienced plugin writer (better than me!), and I just loaded and tested that plugin and it works error free and fine.

A quick look at the code shows no obvious issues with current versions of wordpress or bbpress.

It is always a problem for plugin writers to maintain their plugins – I have over 6, and whenever wordpress updates, I have 6 to test and update.

I don’t really want to take on anymore, else I’d offer to take that one over.

I’d suggest you use it – worst case at some future stage you may have to stop using it, but as I know of no other plugin that does this, you’ll be no worse off than you are now.

If it does stop working come back, and I’ll look to see how easy it is to fix, but offhand I see no reason why it will become out of date unless wordpress does some very major changes.

[ams047]

I am still fairly new and finding my way around, but found your fix gets rid of the error.

However, the comments in this thread suggested that the reply comments box appears below the comment which is being replied to, which your code does not. Instead the comment box appears at the end of the thread.

Restoring I() in reply.js to “return document.getElementById(e);” (from “tinymce.execCommand(‘mceFocus’,false,’bbp_reply_content’);”) fixes that. I tried tinymce.execCommand(‘mceFocus’,false,e); which seemed to be more appropriate but that did not work either.

Hi,

I’d like to remove the header from all bbPress pages on my site, but can’t quite figure it out!

I’m using the theme Total, and advice from the theme creator was to put .ht-main-header{display:none;} in Appearance > Customise > Additional CSS. This worked, but removed the header from all pages across the website and forum. I’d like to keep the header on all main website pages and only remove it from bbPress pages.

The main forum is here: https://economy10.com/f/

I can remove the header from an individual page by adding .postid-994 .ht-main-header{display:none;} but this is only for a specific page. How can I do this for all forum pages?

I’m relatively new to using wordpress/bbpress (and don’t really understand CSS tbh!) so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Mark

Untested, but try

function rew_no_reply_per_forum ($reply_address) {
	$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id() ;
	if $forum_id = 6 $reply_address =  'xxx@yyy.com' ;
	if $forum_id = 7 $reply_address =  'abd@hdhd.com' ;
	return $reply_address ;
}

add_filter ('bbp_get_do_not_reply_address', 'rew_no_reply_per_forum') ;

[Robin W]

it is ‘simply’ ‘showing the forums and sub forums’ – if you want it to show topics as well, then you would use a page with a list of shortcodes eg [bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id]

This will show all the topics – you would need to do some coding to just show topic titles.

Hello,
I would like to create new roles in bbpress.

Unfortunately, I have the problem that the rights are all set to deny, as soon as the user changes something in his profile.
Can I prevent that?

In addition I have installed the plugin “bbPress Advanced Capabilities”

@jrevillini So here’s something curious: I dropped the code into a bp-custom.php file and it works great. However now users can’t edit their posts. When they click EDIT on a post, they’re simply redirected back to the post and not the /edit page. When I remove the code, the redirect to the /edit page works. Have you observed the same?

[Pascal Casier]

Hi @brmbk,

You would need to add the following function into your functions.php:

add_filter('private_title_format', 'brmbk_remove_private_title');
function brmbk_remove_private_title($title) {
	return '%s';
}

If you don’t know how or where to add it, you can also install my bbp-toolkit plugin and you will find the option in there.

[dheerajsharma14]

The above code does not work. It is not part of overall_header.html BUT should be part of viewtopic.php. I was able to search all the code files and place the code in right place to make my migration successful.

However, all user replies were not mapped to users rather imported as anonymous 🙁 … On the other hand, Topics were successfully mapped to right users. Is there any help I can get in mapping those anonymous users back to right users in bbPress?

Your code works like charm.

Thank you very much!!

Hello, I’m a newby and having trouble getting bbpress sidebar to show on forum page. I’ve tried the various combinations with sidebar widget populated with a couple of other widgets, but still can’t see the bbpress sidebar. I have the wp tweaks installed as well. The forum page has the bbpress shortcode on it.
Thanks for your help. The website is oandp.link.

[Indrekkor]

No idea if this was the most optimal way to do it, but did it like this :

<?php 

$val2=bbp_get_user_id();
$val3=get_current_user_id( );
if ( current_user_can( 'moderate' ) OR $val2 == $val3 ) :
    ?>

Anything you want the moderator or logged in user to see.
<?php endif; ?>

Modified all the user-*****.php files like this.

Also in other template files I modified the code so usernames are not linkable to their profile.

[zcoin]

The whole logic is on how to get the notifications from your own table synch with the posts table:

global $wpdb;
		$results = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT notif.*, p2.post_title, p2.post_name
								FROM YOUR_NOTIF_TABLE notif 
		            INNER JOIN wp_posts p on p.id = (CASE WHEN notif.parent_id > 0 THEN notif.parent_id ELSE notif.topic_id END) 
								INNER JOIN wp_posts p2 on notif.topic_id = p2.id     
								WHERE p.post_author = $current_user->ID
								AND notif.user_source != $current_user->ID
								AND notif.unread = 1");
								
		$reply_notifications = array();

So basically found that there is a syntax error be created with youtube links

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pt8VYOfr8To?rel=0" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen><="" ifram=""></iframe>

<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pt8VYOfr8To?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

the allofulscreen and ifram

Does anyone now where in the plug this is generated.
wp autoembed seem to do the youtube but not sure where the iframe parameters are being generated.

this is an issue mainly seen in mobile view only as other views seem to ignore the error.

[Pascal Casier]

In my plugin bbp-toolkit I have used a filter on bbp_get_title_max_length.
Feel free to install the plugin or look at the code on the use of the filter.

[James Revillini]

I coded something you can add to your functions.php file which will do this.

// ---------------------------------------- REDIRECT REPLY POSTS TO TOPIC WITH REPLY ANCHOR
function jrevillini_reply_redirect( $wp_query ) {
  if ( !function_exists('bbp_get_reply_url') ) return;
  if ( !isset($wp_query->query['reply']) ) return;
  wp_safe_redirect( bbp_get_reply_url( $wp_query->query['reply'] ) );
}
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'jrevillini_reply_redirect');

[0be1]

Robin;

I have attempted to add the code you provided to my child themes functions.php file and change the length value to 120. It does not reflect that in either the text on the screen or the actual field length itself. Is there something else I can try?

Thank you…

I know this topic is very old, but is the most recent i found about this argument.

I need different colors for authors link ( topic and replys) .

I solved using the filters bbp_get_reply_author_link and bbp_get_topic_author_link in function.php of my child theme.

I changed the class $link_class in $author_link, you can found the original code in bbpress/includes/topics/template.php and bbpress/includes/reply/template.php.

This is the complete code in my function.php child’s theme:

				$author_link = implode( $r['sep'], $author_link );

			// No links if anonymous
			} else {
				$author_link = implode( $r['sep'], $author_links );

		// No replies so link is empty
		} else {
			$author_link = '';
		}

		return $author_link;
	}

Then you have to add the CSS to the new class added to author’s link.

Hope will be useful,
