Try some troubleshooting first if you haven’t already, check your cache(this includes browser cache if the main browser you use is safari).

Hello, everybody, this is my resolution:
first, i have my own plugin, named ‘sc64’. then add these php code to my plugin.

add_filter('bbp_get_do_not_reply_address','scap_bbp_no_reply_email');
function scap_bbp_no_reply_email(){
	$admin_email = get_option('admin_email');
    return $admin_email;
}

the default noreply email address has changed to admin_email that configured in wordpress.

i hope this helps.

@sbskamey

at the very end of this function function custom_capabilities( $role )

You see this

);
 
            break;
 
        default :
            return $role;
    }

Well your missing a } at the very end.

the end of the function should look like this.

);
 
            break;
 
        default :
            return $role;
    }
}

Hi there, when editing a post, I choose the “log this edit” checkbox. After editing, I get something like the following listed beneath the topic text:

This topic was modified 1 month, 3 weeks ago by lxxx@gmail.com.
This topic was modified 29 seconds ago by lxxx@gmail.com.

However, the “freshness” is still listed as the first (older) time and therefore the sort order in the recent topics shortcode page doesn’t change — so a recently edited post doesn’t float to the top of the list. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Thanks!

[Robkk]

Well thing is having meta tags shouldn’t really affect bbPress at all. And I was figuring it may be how something is configured in their plugin that is causing issues.

<meta property="og:title" content="The Rock" />
<meta property="og:type" content="video.movie" />
<meta property="og:url" content="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117500/" />
<meta property="og:image" content="http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/rock.jpg" />

Or are you saying that the meta tags do not work on bbPress forums, but the bbPress forums work fine??

[Brovashift]

Hi, still setting things up here…

I was just wondering if there was a shortcode or something to add a contact for to my forum?

My site just has a contact page already created, with the text: [contact-form-7 id=”4″ title=”Contact Form”]. But I don’t see that plugin installed.

I would prefer to add a contact form / widget natively if possible. If not, is contact form 7 plugin the way to go?

Thanks guys!

If your theme gets a breadcrumb, then disable Yoast’s one. You may have two breadcrumb:

First ==> WordPress
Second==> BBPress

You do this:

*/
function tempera_breadcrumbs1() {
	$temperas= tempera_get_theme_options();
	foreach ($temperas as $key => $value) { ${"$key"} = $value ; }
	global $post;
	$separator = "<i class='icon-angle-right'></i> ";
	
 if( !is_bbpress()){	
	
	if (is_page() && !is_front_page() || is_single() || is_category() || is_archive()) {
		echo '<div class="breadcrumbs">';
        echo '<a href="'.home_url().'"><i class="icon-homebread"></i></a>'.$separator ;
        if (is_page()) {

			$ancestors = get_post_ancestors($post);
            if ($ancestors) {

            $category = get_the_category();

        if (is_page() || is_single()) {

Hi Robkk, I’d like to change the capabilities for the roles, so I think adding the new roles would be better.

When I move my code to my Child Theme, my website goes blank.

Do you know if theres something that I’m missing?

This is my Child Theme with the 3 new role and new capabilities in it… (when I add this code to the core bbpress files, it works, but now that I moved it to my Child Theme, my site goes blank).

<?php

// enqueue the child theme stylesheet

Function wp_schools_enqueue_scripts() {
wp_register_style( 'childstyle', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css'  );
wp_enqueue_style( 'childstyle' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'wp_schools_enqueue_scripts', 11);

hi friends,

Me too, breadcrumb is not showing only in forum pages.

Previously i had WordPress SEO plugin. Now disabled that too. But still i am not getting breadcrumb. No code is done. Latest bbpress has been installed as it is.

Please help

Thanks

[Robkk]

Its some pagination code inherited from the template bbPress is using for its pages.

You might need to create a bbpress.php file from the file bbPress is inheriting from and place it in your child theme and also remove any post meta like the by that is usually for displaying the author of a blog post.

Getting Started in Modifying the Main bbPress Template

If you are using Genesis, I think installing the bbPress Genesis Extend plugin will solved most bbPress layout issues.

[Robkk]

this is great. thanks Robkk. Just one question… Do I put this into the bbpress.php file in the bbpress folder?

No. Also the bbpress.php file should be in the root of your theme.

I added it here: wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress

Just checking if that is correct?

Don’t mess with any core files.

Okay so I put the above code in here and it seems to work:

plugins > bbpress > includes > users

Again, just checking if that is correct?

Don’t mess with any core files.

Here, I forgot I did this a while back. Add this to your functions.php file in your child theme.

function rk_show_role_classes($classes) {
    $replyid = bbp_get_reply_author_id();
    $bbp_get_role = bbp_get_user_display_role($replyid);
    $bbp_display_role = strtolower($bbp_get_role);
	  
  
	$classes[] = $bbp_display_role;
	return $classes;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_class','rk_show_role_classes' );
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_class','rk_show_role_classes' );

Do the CSS I said before for the above code.

It would be something like this but for each role.

.ambassador .bbp-author-role {
  background-color: blue;
}

And if you do not need custom roles but instead just role names, lets say for each role it would be like this.

Keymaster -> Ambassador
Moderator -> Team Member
Participant -> Community Member

You can just change the role names using this function. Add it to your child themes functions.php file. And rename My Custom Role to what you want.

add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'ntwb_bbpress_custom_role_names' );
function ntwb_bbpress_custom_role_names() {
	return array(
		// Keymaster
		bbp_get_keymaster_role() => array(
			'name'         => 'My Custom Keymaster Role Name',
			'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_keymaster_role() )
		),
		// Moderator
		bbp_get_moderator_role() => array(
			'name'         => 'My Custom Moderator Role Name',
			'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() )
		),
		// Participant
		bbp_get_participant_role() => array(
			'name'         => 'My Custom Participant Role Name',
			'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() )
		),
		// Spectator
		bbp_get_spectator_role() => array(
			'name'         => 'My Custom Spectator Role Name',
			'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_spectator_role() )
		),
		// Blocked
		bbp_get_blocked_role() => array(
			'name'         => 'My Custom Blocked Role Name',
			'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_blocked_role() )
		)
	);
}

Oh and quit trying to copy Ultimate Members site, try to have a unique website.

Hi Robkk,

Thanks for getting back to me re my login/reg issue.

The plugin you sent looks good, but ideally Id like to handle the login/registration natively.

I have added the bbp-login / bbp-register on a single page, which works to some extent, looks kinda basic. But its not contained in a nice neat pop-up box like here in bbpress’s sub-header bar.

More importantly, there is no Logout! Do I need another shortcode for that? [bbp-logout] maybe?

Thanks for your help

Rob

Why does the forum only show up when I update it manually via backend?
Anyone any idea what this could be?

I’ve tried different roles; Moderator + Keymaster. Still getting the same result, everything does work – beside showing it in the frontend.Tho, after updating the forum within the backend it shows up in the frontend.

Thanks.

// Create FORUM Entry object
	  $my_forum = array(
		'post_title'    => 'title',
		'post_content'  => 'test',
		'post_status'   => 'private',
		'post_author'   => $_POST['post_author'], //also tried admin '1',
		'post_type' => 'forum',
		'post_parent' => '123'	// parent forum
	  );
	  // Insert the post into the database
	  $page_id = wp_insert_post( $my_forum );

Okay so I put the above code in here and it seems to work:

plugins > bbpress > includes > users

Now to change the background colours, god that’s gonna take me another 2 days! :p

[Robkk]

Hmm that seems like a peice of code that has been posted on these forums before. Hopefully other users do not come across the same issue.

I am glad that you resolved your own issue though. 🙂

Are you using the WP Admin No show plugin? This is a plugin I usually recommend for users to use instead.

[Robkk]

copy form-anonymous.php in your child theme and remove this in the file.

<p>
  <label for="bbp_anonymous_website"><?php esc_html_e( 'Website:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
    <input type="text" id="bbp_anonymous_website" value="<?php bbp_author_url(); ?>" size="40" name="bbp_anonymous_website" />
</p>

[CraftyMc]

I debugged my site and found the culprit, it would appear my site didn’t like my custom function,

function baw_no_admin_access()
{
if( !current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ) {
wp_redirect( home_url() );
}
}
add_action( 'admin_init', 'baw_no_admin_access', 1 );

Iv’e now removed it and use a plugin to block access to the dashboard. 🙂

[Robkk]

Try some troubleshooting it could be your theme conflicting with bbPress. Try a default theme temporarily to see if is in fact bbPress causing the issue with any scripts.

Troubleshooting

Contact the theme author if it just your theme, and see if they have a fix for users that want to use bbPress.

The debug information you got is explained here.

bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly

[Robkk]

Any plugin that hooks into the default WordPress registration and adds special fields should add fields also to the bbPress registration form.

A plugin like this could add extra fields.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/cimy-user-extra-fields/

This site uses the [bbp-login] shortcode and there is a message on the registration page that says this site uses the same registration details as WordPress.org.

[Brovashift]

Hi all,

Just setting up my new forum using the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress, but Im having trouble handling user registration.

Ive used the forum login widget to handle logins in my sidebar, but im not happy with registration. I created a new page called registration and added the shortcode [bbp-register]. But this is really basic and not what a am looking for at all, unless its possible to edit it somehow, something I am fairly sure cannot be done to a shortcode?

Does anyone have any suggestion as to what login and registration plugins are good to use? Or anyone know what this bbpress site uses to handle its login and registrations, that looks good handling both functions in one tidy box in a single area.

Thanks for you help in advance.

🙂

[CraftyMc]

Hello, I’m having some issues with bbpress, when i activate the plugin all the ajax / jquery features fail to work i.e add to watchlist button, posts, maps, and anything that uses scripts to load.

Has anyone experianced this or know the cause, I enabled debug and it gives me this error, not sure if it’s linked, Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init(). Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 2.3.) in /wp-includes/functions.php on line 3622

At the moment I cannot use the plugin as my site uses a lot of scripts to load the features.

Let me know if you’re able to help. Thanks

What troubleshooting did you already do? Did you already do the plugin and theme troubleshooting?

Troubleshooting

Also sometimes it may not necessarily be a caching plugin, it could also be other thing caching your site, like cloudflare, hosting server cache, something like that.

You can always test your sites theme/plugins on a test server.

the add_filter( ‘logout_url’, ‘bbp_logout_url’, 2, 2 );

filter bbp_logout_url in logout_url

function bbp_logout_url() call apply_filters inside the function

so

if remove_filter remove the filter but it is already apply

it’s like that???

precarious resolved

my own plugin or in function.php

add_filter( 'logout_url', 'my_logout_page', 10, 2 );
function my_logout_page( $logout_url, $redirect ) {
    	$logout_url = str_replace('%3Floggedout%3Dtrue', '', $logout_url);
	return $logout_url;
}

I get that you are sorry for your English haha you don’t have to keep telling me 🙂

Okay try adding this to your child themes function.php file to see if this helps solve your issue, but try just logging out from the WordPress Toolbar only for now.

remove_filter( 'logout_url', 'bbp_logout_url' );
