Thanks Robin, Code worked

[TheDream18]

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.

[Robin W]

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' );

[Robin W]

that code should put [no_support] before the topic title – is this what you are trying to achieve?

[TheDream18]

Hello,

I used this code for clear Topic info. To show topic is not supported yet, only creater topic voices in current. I checked code was correct, but it did not work, anyone can help please?

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’ );

Hello,

I am running bbPress v2.5.12 on WordPress 4.7 with a child theme I’ve developed based on Imaginem Themes’ Sentric Theme.

The problem:
In my child theme’s functions, I have added the following code to make two custom roles, Professional and Member, for my Q&A/”Ask the Expert”-style forum called “Ask a Professional.” Essentially, Members can make threads asking questions, but only screened Professionals have the ability to reply and provide answers.

I want everyone to automatically be assigned the Member role upon registration. Then I can manually “upgrade” their roles to Professional once they’ve been successfully screened. However, when a user registers and logs in, they inherit Member capabilities, but are not assigned the Member role. Manually selecting the user and assigning them the Member role doesn’t work; their role immediately reverts back to “— No role for these forums —”

When I select the user and manually assign the Participant role, the role “sticks” — meaning, it doesn’t revert back to “No Role.” However, the “Member” capabilities remain.

Does anyone know why this problem persists and how to fix it? This is the final thing that needs to be ironed out before my site goes live. 🙂 Thank you!

Troubleshooting:

1. I’ve tried to disable plugins and see if any of them are causing this issue. This hasn’t yielded any different results.
2. I’ve checked with the Twenty Sixteen and Twenty Seventeen theme.

[Robin W]

quickest way is to add this to your .css file

.bbp-topic-started-by {
  display: none;
}

[Robin W]

I found that the above code took away the Forums, Topics and Replies from the dashboard in bbpress.

I found some other code and modified it as follows

/**
  * Add REST API support to an already registered post type.
  */
  add_action( 'init', 'rew_custom_post_type_rest_support', 25 );
  
  function rew_custom_post_type_rest_support() {
  	global $wp_post_types;
  
  	$post_type_name =  bbp_get_reply_post_type();
  	if( isset( $wp_post_types[ $post_type_name ] ) ) {
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->show_in_rest = true;
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_base = $post_type_name;
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_controller_class = 'WP_REST_Posts_Controller';
  	}
	$post_type_name =  bbp_get_topic_post_type();
  	if( isset( $wp_post_types[ $post_type_name ] ) ) {
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->show_in_rest = true;
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_base = $post_type_name;
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_controller_class = 'WP_REST_Posts_Controller';
  	}
	$post_type_name =  bbp_get_forum_post_type();
  	if( isset( $wp_post_types[ $post_type_name ] ) ) {
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->show_in_rest = true;
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_base = $post_type_name;
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_controller_class = 'WP_REST_Posts_Controller';
  	}
	  
  }

@barryhughes-1 – thoughts – can this be done better?

Although I can’t login via WordPress, I can FTP, but I’m not sure what to change.

[Sadegh Hosseini]

Hi,
Is there any plugin (or code) to create admin per forum that each admin can moderate only his forum and don’t have moderation tools for other forums.
Thanks

[Alex Stine]

Hello,

I have a custom user meta field which is a staff label field. For people with “staff” capability, they can go to their profile in WP admin and enter some text for a label such as “Lead Developer, Writer, Support, etc. I would like to output this label on BBPress profile but cannot figure out how to do it. I am using the currently displayed profile ID. In the following file:
/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/members-header.php

I know it’s bad to hack core files, I will move to my themes folder once it’s working. This is the code I have currently.

<?php
$member_id = bp_displayed_user_id();
if ( user_can( $member_id, 'staff' ) ) {
if ( get_the_author_meta( 'staff') ) {
$x = ( get_the_author_meta( 'staff', $member_id ) == '' ) ? "Staff" : get_the_author_meta( 'staff', $member_id );
echo '<div class="staff-label">';
echo $x ;
echo '</div>';
} 
} ?>

This code is working fine in the comments area with different logic to grab the user ID, just not working for BuddyPress. Any suggestions?

Thanks. 🙂

[oyegigi]

In case someone wants to use the code who is using pretty links.

// Generate BBporess Edit Profile Link in a shortcode
// [bbp_edit_profile text="Edit My Profile" class"my-link-style"]

function bbp_edit_profile_link($atts) {
	extract(shortcode_atts(array(
		'text' => "",  // default value if none supplied
		'class' => "" //Style class for link
    ), $atts));
    
    if ($text) {
		$current_user = wp_get_current_user (); 
		$user=$current_user->user_login;
        return '<a class="'. $class . '" href="/forums/users/' . $user . '/edit">' . $text. '</a>';
        
    } 
}
add_shortcode('bbp_edit_profile', 'bbp_edit_profile_link');

[King-Nothing]

I totally forgot about this thread.

I fixed it with css:

nav .menu li a span {
display: none;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: 400;
opacity: 0.6;
}

But I guess it would be better to edit some code instead?

Hi, at the top of the pages of this forum, an error shows up. It says:

Continue reading→” />

This error would show up from time to time on user created pages when there was a format issue. To fix it there, I would just jiggle the code around until the error went away.

The forum pages are not user created though so I’m not sure how to clear this error.

[scotth454]

I am getting mine started up an have spent most of my saturday with the same problem. action-modeler.com

<li id="menu-item-1016" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type_archive menu-item-object-forum menu-item-1016"><a>All Forums<span class="menu-tag">bbPress Forums</span></a></li>

Adding a second all forums menu doesn’t have the extra “bbPress Forums”.

Well I figured out setting it as a page to get the all forums. Apparently using the all forums from the “Forums” in menu manager is bugged.

[Barry]

…A PHP 5.2-friendly version that also covers the reply and forum post types:

function bbpress_enable_rest_api_support() {
	$enable_rest = array( 'show_in_rest' => true );
	register_post_type( bbp_get_reply_post_type(), $enable_rest );
	register_post_type( bbp_get_topic_post_type(), $enable_rest );
	register_post_type( bbp_get_forum_post_type(), $enable_rest );
}

add_action( 'bbp_register_post_types', 'bbpress_enable_rest_api_support', 11 );

[Barry]

To enable default REST API support for topics you could use a snippet like this one:

add_action( 'bbp_register_post_types', function() {
	register_post_type( bbp_get_topic_post_type(), [ 'show_in_rest' => true ] );
}, 11 );

This waits until bbPress has registered its post types, then modifies the properties of the topic post type so that it is exposed via the REST API. You could of course extend it to cover forum and reply posts, too. With that in place, you should find URLs like the following work as expected:

http://bbpress.site/wp-json/wp/v2/topic

[Robin W]

ok, I’ve found a link to some code that doesn’t entirely make sense yet, but gives me some clues, but I’ll do some more digging over the next few days.

[Stephen Edgar]

@ johnskennedy You’re spot on, creating 8 functions is one way to do that, you’d need to make sure that each function name is unique.

That said, the above is one way, another way is to use some conditional logic with some if/else statements which is a little trickier, possibly more fun though to update the function in this way even 😉

See these codex docs for sme very initial hints:
• https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags
• https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-conditional-tags/

[davemiller58]

I have the same problem as you – the shortcodes don’t work.

I did what you said here – reset the forums – but no change – the same problem.

Still not working …

[johnskennedy]

I have used Stephen’s code above and it works perfectly.

However, I have 8 forums on my site so if I wanted to add a random button for each separate forum that only selects topics from that forum would I have to create 8 different function ntwb_bbpress_random_single_topic() in my .php and include only a single forum ID every time or is there a better way to implement this? Also, how and where would I add the shortcodes so that they only show on the relevant forum?

[davemiller58]

Am using:

Twentythirteen wordpress theme

bbPress – Version 2.5.12

With bbPress I have created a number of forums

But – when I put the following short code into a page:
[bbp-forum-index]

it shows nothing …

Please – what am I doing wrong?

Thanks. I tried http://MY_SITE.COM/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?filter[type]=topic and http://MY_SITE.COM/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?filter[type]=forum but the filter appeared not to work as blog posts was returned. Please not that I have already installed the plugin.

[mth75]

Hi all,

I added an easy New Topic button (after reading a lot of other possible solutions):

Add to your loop-topics.php template (before the actual loop):

<?php if (!is_user_logged_in() ) :?>
<?php else : ?>
<div class="new-topic">
	<input type="submit" name="submit" value="New Topic"  onclick="location.href='#new-post';">
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Add some css for styling when needed:

.new-topic {  
	position: relative;
	z-index:1;
	float: right;
}

Regards,

Marc
