ok, having all results on one page might give you issues.
bbpress will by default show the number of replies per page that is set in
dashboard>settings>forums>Topics and Replies Per Page>Replies
You could up that to say 100, so that you get a decent chuck. But this would change it for forums as well.
However if you wanted that just for search, so not affecting forums, then you could set it as a filter in your functions file – if you know how to add code to your functions file, then come back and I’ll give you some code. Again I would recommend that you set a limit but it can be as high as you like.
Hey everyone! Guess what?
bbPress 2.6, Release Candidate 3, is now available for testing.
Download it from here: https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.2.6-rc-3.zip
Why is this cool? For starters, @jeffr0 may finally climb down off my back and stop giving me grief for how long it’s been since we shipped a major release.
bbPress 2.5.0 in 2014, 3 years ago.
Most people wouldn’t be proud to say that, but… I am. The 2.5 branch of bbPress has been so stable & well received, we were able to take our time with 2.6 and double-down on upstream improvements to WordPress.
bbPress 2.6 will come with:
* Per-forum moderators
* Improved favorites & subscriptions management
* Improved BuddyPress integration
* Performance improvements across the board
* UX improvements to meta-boxes and admin-area tools
* Tighter integration with WordPress’s Dashboard
* Template tweaks & clean-up
* About 110 other things
If you’re going to test 2.6 on a live site, maybe don’t just yet. It runs a database upgrade routine to migrate favorites & subscriptions from usermeta to postmeta, and for large forums that may take a while or possibly lock things up for a bit.
We are already running 2.6 here and on bbPress.org, so enjoy the speedier new posting experience, and we’ll let you know when the next beta is ready!
Just to let you know that this issue was fixed by uninstalling the plugin “bbPress Login Register Links On Forum Topic Pages” and instead adding a login/logout link using the code provided here:
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
and then adding code provided to make sure the links only appear in the forum and not the whole site:
change line 3 to
if ( is_user_logged_in() && is_bbpress() ) {
and line 6 to
elseif ( !is_user_logged_in() && is_bbpress() ) {
Hi there @iprg,
Sorry, but there isn’t yet. It wouldn’t be too difficult for us to implement this feature inside of wp-admin, though.
Are you comfortable creating a feature request over at https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org? If so, that’s the best place to log this idea, and we’ll try and get it into a future release.
I think I understand the expectation here, but that isn’t how it’s currently designed to work.
More specifically, bbPress subscriptions do not discriminate against the user’s current role. If they were subscribed before, they’ll be subscribed until they unsubscribe.
To achieve the behavior you desire, a plugin could be written that either:
- Filters
bbp_topic_subscription_user_ids and removes users with/out desired roles
- Filter
bbp_set_user_role and permanently delete all subscriptions when the new role matches one that qualifies
Maybe a combination of both of the above, if you need to account for already removed users, but want to clean-up future role changes.
ok, so
create a directory on your childtheme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your childtheme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-reply.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/form-reply.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this
so amend this file – copy it to your Pc and use norepad or similar
around line 70 you will see
<?php if ( bbp_allow_topic_tags() && current_user_can( 'assign_topic_tags' ) ) : ?>
replace this with
<?php
$user_id = wp_get_current_user()->ID;
$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id() ;
$topic_author = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id ) ;
$is_topic_author = ($topic_author == $user_id ? true : false) ;
if ( bbp_allow_topic_tags() && current_user_can('assign_topic_tags' ) && ($is_topic_author || bbp_is_user_keymaster() ) : ?>
This is untested, and if it doesn’t work – do come back !
This codex article is quite comprehensive about how to fight SPAM. (https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/forum-moderation/dealing-with-spam/)
However, although it acknowledges profile SPAM, it fails amongst the many solutions to actually identify a method that is targeted at battling profile SPAM. You could switch to manual registration approval (which would be a pain in any moderate to high traffic site), but that would not solve the problem since the approved user can still post links in their profile.
Akismet, WangGuard, etc, appear to only work on post/comment spam, not on profile spam, no?
I don’t even have discussions enabled or commenting enabled so I don’t even care about post/comment spam!
So as far as I can tell there is no plug-in or feature that will prevent profile SPAM. Someone please tell me I’m wrong!
untested, but this should do it, come back if not
change line 3 to
if ( is_user_logged_in() && is_bbpress() ) {
and line 6 to
elseif ( !is_user_logged_in() && is_bbpress() ) {
your theme is re-writing the classes used by bbpress.
Put this into the custom css – either of your theme if it has a custom css area, or into the custom css tab in my style pack plugin settings
.x-bbp-search-form {
background-color: #ffffff !important;
}
.bbp-forums ul, li {
background-color: #ffffff !important;
}
Hi and thanks for your quick answer.
I have child theme and I can copy bbpress theme inside it.
I’d be thankful if you tell me how can I use these codes.
Please consider that I want to let Keymaster and topic owner to edit topic tags.
Hi,
you provide code to add login and logout links on bbpress layout and functionality, which is just what i need.
Question: Is there any way for it to only appear in my forum http://www.apis.de/forum (and all sub urls) but not on the rest of my site?
Quick solution but not really what i’m looking for (i’m looking to add a function as a real menu option).
I order to add a Like option to the BBPress header menu in topics and replies I resorted to this quick solution (not perfect yet):
<span class="bbp-admin-links">
<?php echo get_fav_or_unfav_button_for_bpp(); ?>
</span>
Add after <?php bbp_reply_admin_links(); ?> in loop-single-reply.php

I order to add a Like option to the BBPress header menu in topics and replies I resorted to this quick solution (not perfect yet):
<span class="bbp-admin-links">
<?php echo get_fav_or_unfav_button_for_bpp(); ?>
</span>
Add after <?php bbp_reply_admin_links(); ?> in loop-single-reply.php
But mission accomplished, the integration of the Buddypress Favorite system with BBPress is complete.
Solved:
function get_fav_or_unfav_button_for_bpp( $reply ) {
global $bp, $activities_template;
// user is not logged ? Show nothing.
if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
return '';
}
$activity_id = (int) get_post_meta( bbp_get_reply_id( $reply_id ), '_bbp_activity_id', true );
if ( ! $activity_id ) {
return '';
}
bp_has_activities(); // update $activities_template of user's fav
$old_value = false;
if ( isset( $activities_template->activity->id ) ) {
$old_value = $activities_template->activity->id;
$activities_template->activity->id = $activity_id;
} else {
$activities_template->activity = (object) array( 'id' => $activity_id );
}
// building the template
$code = '';
$code .= '<div class="activity-like-count">'."\n";
if ( ! bp_get_activity_is_favorite() ) {
// if not favorited, add a fav button
$code .= ' <a href="'.bp_get_activity_favorite_link( ).'" class="acomment-like fav-comment bp-secondary-action" title="'.__( 'Like', 'buddypress' ).'">'.__( 'Like', 'buddyboss' ).'</a>'."\n";
} else {
// if already favorited, a button to unfav
$code .= ' <a href="'.bp_get_activity_unfavorite_link( ).'" class="acomment-like unfav-comment bp-secondary-action" title="'.__( 'Unlike', 'buddypress' ).'">'.__( 'Unlike', 'buddyboss' ).'</a>'."\n";
}
// closing .activity-meta
$code .= '</div>'."\n";
if ( false !== $old_value ) {
$activities_template->activity->id = $old_value;
} else {
$activities_template->activity = null;
}
return $code;
}
?>
Add to loop-single-reply.php for BBPress:
<?php echo get_fav_or_unfav_button_for_post( reply ); ?> or in the bbp_reply_menu, which i’m still trying to figure out:
add my own menu option to the bbp-reply-header
Apologies all and good catch, Robin!
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with your version of the code, but for the sake of alternatives here’s a fix for what I posted originally:
function bbpress_enable_rest_api() {
$types = array(
bbp_get_reply_post_type(),
bbp_get_forum_post_type(),
bbp_get_topic_post_type(),
);
foreach ( $types as $slug ) {
$definition = (array) get_post_type_object( $slug );
$definition['show_in_rest'] = true;
$definition['rest_controller_class'] = 'WP_REST_Posts_Controller';
register_post_type( $slug, $definition );
}
}
add_action( 'bbp_register_post_types', 'bbpress_enable_rest_api', 11 );
Beyond that, the links you shared (in terms of mixing in extra info such as the author’s details) look solid to me 🙂
ok, I’ve just loaded your code to my test site, and I can set a user to member and it holds
Suspect either theme or other plugins
bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes
It could be a theme or plugin issue
Plugins
Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
you would need to know how to copy a bbpress template, modify it and then load it to your child theme
so you would need FTP access to your site
If that sound possible, the come back and I’ll try to help further
posting this untested code in here just so I don’t lose it !
<?php
$user_id = wp_get_current_user()->ID;
$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id() ;
$topic_author = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id ) ;
$is_topic_author = ($topic_author == $user_id ? true : false) ;
if ( bbp_allow_topic_tags() && current_user_can( 'assign_topic_tags' ) && $is_topic_author ) : ?>
Shortcodes
[bbp-topic-form] – Display the ‘New Topic’ form where you can choose from a drop down menu the forum that this topic is to be associated with.
[bbp-topic-form forum_id=$forum_id] – Display the ‘New Topic Form’ for a specific forum ID.
ok, I can’t immediately see an error in your coding
two thoughts
1. does professional stick – I know you don’t want to use that, but it would help show if it is the whole code or just part that is not working.
2. since lots of people copy code, it may be that your function names are not unique – eg function add_new_roles may exist elsewhere.
Try making them unique
ie change
function add_new_roles
to
function kajzh_add_new_roles
and change then filter that calls that function
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_new_roles', 1 );
to
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'kajzh_add_new_roles', 1 );
and do this for all the functions – each has a name and then a filter that calls it.
Hi Robin and Barry, thanks for the help so far, it is working now. Though I have noticed that the API is not as robust as I expected it to be. For example the /reply endpoint doesn’t show the details of of the person who posted the reply (author) and moreover, say I wanted to view all the replies for a particular topic; can this be done?
Hi, I’ve been working on migrating my large Drupal site to WordPress. I’ve managed to do the majority of the site but now I’m stuck on the forum.
I’m using Drupal 6 and Advanced Forum, I have 26K topics and 700K replies.
I’ve tried running the script on a couple of different local machines, and on my VPS server where I’ve had the most success; the script does the 26K topics smoothly but then hangs pretty early in the replies, around the 700th row. Locally, it gets stuck before. Weird thing is that a couple of times I’ve left it running for longer, eventually it manages to go past that sticking point and just continues extremely slowly.
Also: I’ve read the troubleshooting instructions, which make sense but I don’t understand how to pinpoint the line numbers within the database, specifically these points:
- “Now drop all the rows in the database that are not in the range of rows that failed during import”
- “Once you have your list of offenders and the import has finished delete these rows from the database and test again to make sure it completes without hanging
So question #1: if I look at my database in phpMyAdmin for example, and I know the problem is in rows 700-799 of my replies, how do I locate these rows?
Question #2: Is there a way to know for sure if the problem is performance/memory related or if it’s an encoding issue in a specific row? I don’t know if I should be directing my efforts to solving performance issues or pinpointing problem rows.
And finally question #3: Does anybody here have experience with these issues and would be willing to be hired to do this migration? Contact me if you do please!
Thank you very much for any help you can provide 🙂
Thanks Robin, Code worked
Yes. I used this code as topic that i did not get any support, only there alone topic active. If count voice =1 , will display [No support] to user know that noone in help theme issued yet.
the code for if… needs two = signs so try
function none_people_discuss() {
$voice_count = bbp_get_topic_voice_count();
if ( $voice_count == 1 )
echo '<span class=”no_support”>[No support]</span>';
}
add_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_title', 'none_people_discuss' );
that code should put [no_support] before the topic title – is this what you are trying to achieve?
