Hey – thanks for at least looking into it. If that’s the worst limitation of bbPress, I have no complaints!

I was just asking here because I thought there might be a simple solution. I guess I could hire a coder and post the fix back here.

I only have 1 registration form. Only 1. the bbp register short code has been deleted but I am still getting the emails from that.

could it be spammer going to this?? instead of the bbPress one that you already deleted.

yoursite.com/wp-login.php?action=register

I can’t imagine any of these being real since the old registration is gone.

yeah you might as well turn registration off til you get sorted out on this issue.

I can’t find where to deactivate registration.

go to settings > general uncheck Anyone can Register

If I deactivate registration, will that affect the VFBP

when you uncheck anyone can register it should disable this until you activate it.

there are likely other people who have posted a topic like this one from 3 years ago.

you can try the code the user placed below for the bbPress custom post types and see if it works.

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-does-blog-become-current_page_parent-with-custom-post-type

[Robkk]

try this example, change the colors/remove the text decoration to your liking.

.bbpress bbp-topic-content a,
.bbpress bbp-reply-content a {
    color: blue;
    text-decoration: underline;
}

I can’t find where to deactivate registration. I am using the Visual Form Builder Pro plug in with captcha. That one is working properly If I deactivate registration, will that affect the VFBP?

@geekserve

what looks awful?? the you are already logged in status?? or how the login widget displays the avatar and profile links if you are logged on.

But to really customize how you want the bbPress login widget to be , the easiest thing to do is create a new widget and base most of the code off of the original bbpress login widget.

I tried with twentyfifteen and it still looks the same. Im not sure if i understand it clearly, but if yes, then: If i set it not equal then in the breadcrump it will show the bbpress’s virtual page for the forum root-and in the url also, and not my real wordpress forum page i created with shortcodes.

[jayd94]

yes, like so

And this is how it looks on the page now

But setting the forum root to be the wordpress page clearly makes the problem, before it looks just perfect.

i have my forum built up by [bbp-single-forum id=xxx]-shortcodes

and these are one under each other in the forum name page?

[jayd94]

Yes exactly, forum named page with the slug foforum, but on the page i dont have any [bbp-forum-index], i have my forum built up by [bbp-single-forum id=xxx]-shortcodes-tho momentally because of the break these shortcodes gives the result as if i had [bbp-forum-index] instead of [bbp-single-forum id=xxx]. so if i have 3 of [bbp-single-forum id=xxx] shortocdes under eachother, then it results as if i had 3 of [bbp-forum-index] shortcodes.

[jayd94]

Sorry if i wasn’t clear. So my problem basically is: BBpress has the forum root option, that i set the same as my wp page’s slug. It works, forum is shown on the wordpress page, and the url is okay, and the breadcrump is also okay.–>but setting the root to show forum on my wp page also breaks my [bbp-single-forum id=xxx]-shortcodes—-it seems to now show up on the page as if it was this shortcode:[bbp-forum-index] instead of each and every one of my[bbp-single-forum id=xxx] shortcodes.

[Jake Hall]

yes there is its called form-user-login.php

using the bbp-login shortcode works as one would expect, editing the user-login form works also, as one would expect. However:

When the user is logged in, it constantly displays a “you are already logged in message”. The reason I want to edit the bbp login widget is because that handles whether or not the user is logged in flawlessly, it just looks plain awful.

So, if I can easily edit the form that is included within the widget, that would be much better

Our phpbb3 forum was migrated to a brand new WordPress installation with bbPress installed (not BuddyPress). It was done by a consultant, so I am not sure how much of the code was custom vs a phpbb3 migration tool.

We got the private topics to show to Participants by using the plugin “Capability Manager Enhanced” and allowing the read_private_topics and read_private_replies. This now allows Participants to read the private topics, but also allows them to see Hidden forums. They cannot see the content/topics of the forums, but they can see the hidden forum titles.

The remapping to default was done with the repair tool. It had no impact, except to require me to go back and reset the handful of users that were not set to Participants.

The big question that seems unresolved in many threads is whether Participants are supposed to see Private topics/replies, or if that is a misprint in the documentation? Why would we have to use the Capability Manager Enhanced plugin to do what the docs say should happen by default.

[bbp-single-forum id=460] im using this momentally, but i`ve tried more codes that did the same.
The link works good as i rewrote the forum root to the wp page`s slug-http://rohamjelvenyek.com/foforum/kategoriak/altalanos/regi-penzek-foruma-az-okortol-napjainkig/

[Robin W]

can you give us a shortcode you are using and a link to the resultant page?

[pazzaglia]

Unfortunately, with the upgrade to WordPress 4.x these little snippets no longer work – I read elsewhere that bbpress search had some updates which likely render these snippers useless. : (

If anyone has the updated code, I would really appreciate it!!

Ciao,

Where and how do I insert that? I used the short code [bbp-register] How can I add the Captcha?

[jayd94]

Hello!
My problem is :
I set my forum root matching with the wp page slug i created for main forum page, named it: ´foforum`.

It works, the root is now the wp page, but it breaks all the bbp shortcodes that i am using on the page, it seems to display forum index instead of each single forum displayed, so everywhere there is [bbp-single-forum id=xxx], it shows all the forums-as ifd it was the forum index shortcode.
Thanks,
Daniel

[jayd94]

hey!
It wokrs for me also, root is good, but it somehow breaks my shortcodes, instead of displaying single forum, all my single forum shortcode shows forum index shortcode.

I tried three plug-ins from the WordPress repository and all of them send Text e-mails for bbpress notifications.

– bbPress Notify
– bbPress Notifications
– bbPress Custom Reply Notifications*

I also tried Satollo’s bbpress plug-in, Satollo x bbPress, which DOES send HTML e-mails and is available only on his website (not in the repository) but it’s a little buggy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t but every time someone submits a comment they get a page with php warnings and errors-eeek!

I’m only a PHP tweaker, not writer, and cannot make out the spaghetti code of the three robust plug-ins to find where and how to add the information that the notification should go out in HTML.

Any suggestions or ideas?

Thanks!

The first basketball is given by a div class of ‘page-title’
The second basketball is given by a div class of ‘entry-title’

so you could try

#bbpress-forums .entry-title {
display : none !important ;
}

in your child theme css

Functions files and child themes – explained !

Matter resolved.

“If you wish that the Homepage Blog and the Post will have the Center Effect then the code will be:

.home.blog #content, .single #content{width: 100%}

this code will only affect the Homepage and the Blog Posts.”

[novicechess]

Follow-up question:

After aligning my forum, I found that my posts were all shifted left. I attempted to shift them right by referencing the title (h1) and content of posts (p). After changing the values of their width and margin-left, they look fine (minus the date/comment buttons, which I haven’t figured out how to reference yet), but now my forums are affected by the “p” width change, which makes them overflow.

Is there a way to only reference blog posts while keeping the format for the forums in tact?

Here is the code I used to manually center my post content/title.

h1.entry-title {
	width: 500px;
	margin-left: 250px;
}

p {
	width: 500px;
	margin-left: 250px;
}

Here is what my blog posts look like:

Here is what my forum looks like with the overflow:

All help/feedback appreciated!

This should help.

you can add the bbpress post type to the default wordpress search.

copy this into your child theme functions.php or a functionality plugin

/**
 * Include bbPress 'topic' custom post type in WordPress' search results
 */
function ntwb_bbp_topic_cpt_search( $topic_search ) {
	$topic_search['exclude_from_search'] = false;
	return $topic_search;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_register_topic_post_type', 'ntwb_bbp_topic_cpt_search' );

/**
 * Include bbPress 'reply' custom post type in WordPress' search results
 */
function ntwb_bbp_reply_cpt_search( $reply_search ) {
	$reply_search['exclude_from_search'] = false;
	return $reply_search;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_register_reply_post_type', 'ntwb_bbp_reply_cpt_search' );

function ntwb_bbp_forum_cpt_search( $forum_search ) {
$forum_search['exclude_from_search'] = false;
return $forum_search;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_register_forum_post_type', 'ntwb_bbp_forum_cpt_search' );
