Hey,
I have edit the feedback-no-search.php inside my child theme stored in child-theme > bbpress
This is what the file looks like:
https://gist.github.com/mvaneijgen/83b2bdf325172ae1536b
No permission changes.
Yes they can and if I change the short code to [bbp-topic-form forum_id=221] everything works fine
Don’t know what troubleshooting to try.
@mvaneijgen
i just tested out the shortcode an i get no issues , i checked with a participant and keymaster roles.
i usually use the topic form page on this site too when i created topics and it seems to work well here too since im a participant.
Create New Topic
have you edited the template files specifically the ones for the topic form??
have you edited role permissions??
can your users see the message on normal topic forms that should display under a forum list.
have you done the usual troubleshooting??
you have a link to your dissuasion board already in your menu
i mean if you didnt put the shortcode into that page already , the forums should show up every time you hit it.
use this shortcode
[bbp-forum-index]
https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
other than putting the shortcode
usually when visiting a site the forums archive is usually yoursite.com/forums.
so use the links part in the menus section and add a custom link
here is the list of all bbPress shortcodes
codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
you could develop/hire a developer to use something like this
<?php wp_get_current_user(); ?>
codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_get_current_user
an alternative would be to use #3
codex.bbpress.org/layout-and-functionality-examples-you-can-use/
Redirecting back to the default wordpress login pages is a common complaint , but there are better plugins that handle frontend authentication then the default bbPress ones , id say maybe use another plugin for frontend authentication.
other than that its not a total issue, those default WordPress login pages arent just for admins they are suppose to be used for all your users.
the default from name is wordpress , you can customize it with filters though.
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', 'your_email' );
function your_email( $original_email_address )
{
return 'your@email-address.com';
}
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from_name', 'custom_wp_mail_from_name' );
function custom_wp_mail_from_name( $original_email_from )
{
return 'Your sites name';
}
you can use the bbPress views widget.
which would link to optional ways to view the topics.
Recommended im not sure though?? maybe as an alternative you can use most replied too??
to add more custom views
you can plop this code into your child themes functions.php file or add it into a functionality plugin.
/**
* Register these bbPress views:
* - Popular Topics
* - Unpopular Topics
* - Random Topic
* - Recently Closed
* - Tagged Test
* - All Topics
* - Open (Not Closed)
* - Random Single Topic
*
* @uses bbp_register_view() To register the view
*/
function ntwb_register_custom_views() {
bbp_register_view( 'popular-topics', __( 'Popular Topics' ), array( 'meta_key' => '_bbp_reply_count', 'orderby' => 'meta_value_num' ), false );
bbp_register_view( 'unpopular-topics', __( 'Unpopular Topics' ), array( 'meta_key' => '_bbp_reply_count', 'orderby' => 'meta_value_num', 'order' => 'asc' ), false );
bbp_register_view( 'random-topic', __( 'Random Topic' ), array( 'orderby' => 'rand' ), false );
bbp_register_view( 'closed', __( 'Recently Closed' ), array( 'post_status' => 'closed' ), false );
bbp_register_view( 'taggedtest', __( 'Tagged Test' ), array( 'topic-tag' => 'test' ) );
bbp_register_view( 'all-topics', __( 'All Topics' ), array( 'order' => 'DESC' ), false );
bbp_register_view( 'open', __( 'Open (Not Closed)' ), array( 'post_status' => 'publish' ), false );
bbp_register_view( 'random-single-topic', __( 'Random Single-Topic' ), array( 'orderby' => 'rand', 'posts_per_page' => '1', 'max_num_pages' => '1' ), false );
}
add_action( 'bbp_register_views', 'ntwb_register_custom_views' );
there is a topic form shortcode which is listed here, it does as you describe.
[bbp-topic-form]
https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
for the button , search through the forums im sure ive said this before
its somewhere in this topic
How to make similar bbpress forum to QuicSprout one?
if its in a forum you should use <?php bbp_forum_reply_count() ?> for topics the other code works.
@navinn
alight , i knew it was that CSS code for sure but i didnt know for sure if it was for something cool in your theme.
the original code i posted shouldve worked all i did was add an CSS ID so that it would only show for bbPress , because that is where the issue was.
I attempted deactivating the plugin, and it took my entire site offline! Trying to load any page just gives a blank screen – no error message, no code. I reactivated the plugin, but the forum menus in admin are no longer there, so I can’t run the “reset forums” that people have mentioned.
This is a production site, with 8000+ hits daily, so I’m not able to start deactivating plugins and changing themes like other posts have suggested.
Help?
sorry, but if the code doesn’t work, the either you are doing something wrong, or something else is interfering.
If you have a link to your site and a page showing the issue, I’ll take one further look.
Hi, I’ve found the wrong css code:
#top ul:first-child > li > a {
color: #eeeeee;
}
Thanks for your help, you can consider it as solved
Solved!
Deactivated Role Editor plugin.
Installed and activated Members plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/members/
(Permissions changed with Role Editor remained.)
Added, for Author role, with Members plugin, the following permission:
read_hidden_forums
That seemed to do the trick. Hope this helps other people with the same problem while bbPress developers don’t fix the bug.
I’ve tried workaround suggested by @mjpg but it’s had no effect at all!
I’ve edit role for one of the users, with general Author and bbPress Participant roles. Then activated:
read_private_forums
read_private_replies
read_private_topics
And it had no effect: topics inside private forums remained invisible for that user!
Than I tried and activated also, in the main roles section, the following:
read_private_pages
read_private_posts
And, still no effect!
🙁
I’m having a similar problem. And I must tell Andre that, yes, it seems a bug and is not intended to be that way. As you can read at https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/#participant they are supposed to read private forums. My private users (with participant role) can see the private forums and navigate through them and their sub-forums, but all topics (on private forums and also on private sub-forums inside private forums) there is a message that no topic has been found. If I just give them upper permissions (Moderator), then they can see all the topics on these forums and alos reply, etc.
So I think it’s truely a bug. Strange to me that it’s been around for some months without being fixed 🙁
BTW, I’m using bbPress as a plugin within a WP installation.
Like Dropbox https://www.dropboxforum.com/hc/communities/public/questions
we would like to include a button at top right of forum page to post a question or idea.
Topic options would be provided as a dropdown list for the user to select from.
The user would provide title of question or idea and more details if required.
Title and topic would be required fields, more details would be optional.
Like this: https://www.dropboxforum.com/hc/communities/public/questions/new
Is this possible with shortcodes or can some tell me how to accomplish this. Our wordpress version 4.1.1 and bbPress version is 2.5.6
Thanking you in advance for any help
Hello,
this is how it looks today:
the words ware not in one row. I would like to improve the appearance. Thatswhy i want to have all words in one row and the button left or maybe centered.
But i don’t know how to realize it.
Regards
I took the “link” code out and it posted.
I’ve looked over the documentation but can’t find a shortcode or link that will take me to the page that displays links for a user’s profile, topics, favorites, etc. For example:
http://screencast.com/t/mvPcfwwcp
I can get there after I post a topic and then click on my username. I would like to add a link to this page at the top of entry page.
Thanks!
Chad
Hi, it doesn’t change.
I also tried this:
#bbpress-forums #top ul:first-child > li > a {
color: #b84444!important;
}
i don’t know it that helps, but my custom CSS contains this:
li#menu-item-107548 .avia-menu-text span{
font-size: 22px;
}
#header_meta {
background: #4a96cd;
}
#top ul:first-child > li > a {
color: #eeeeee;
}
#top ul:first-child > li > a:hover {
color: #4a96cd;
}
/* Main Menu - HIGHLIGHT BLOCK */
#top .avia-menu-fx {
display:block;
position:absolute;
border-style:solid;
border-width:5px;
}
.avia_desktop .av-hover-overlay-active .av-masonry-image-container {
opacity: 1;
}
.qa-faq-title { font-size: 110%; }
.faq-catname { font-size: 150%; }
.header_color .main_menu ul:first-child > li > a {font-size:110%;
}
@media only screen and (max-width: 600px) {
.av-inner-masonry-content.site-background {
opacity: 0 !important;
}
}
.single #main .content .entry-footer{
float: left !important;
}
/* Couleur de la sideBar */
.main_color .sidebar { background-color: #eeeeee; }
/* Couleur des liens vers pages de même niveau dans la sidebar*/
ul.nested_nav a:hover {
color: #4a96cd!important;
}
ul.nested_nav a {
color: #404040!important;
}
/*Classe pour centrer les images dans le menu*/
p.menu-image {
position: relative;
top: -9px;
}
li#menu-item-107543 a .avia-menu-fx {
bottom: 11px!important;
}
li#menu-item-107544 a .avia-menu-fx {
bottom: 11px!important;
}
/*Désactiver la bordure en haut a droite du menu*/
.avia-menu.av_menu_icon_beside { border-right: none; }
#top #header .avia_mega_div > .sub-menu.avia_mega_hr {
padding-top: 5px;
}
#top #header .avia_mega_div > .sub-menu {
padding: 20px 20px 20px;
}
Users are reporting an error when logging in using the bbPres login widget:
Warning: require_once(/home/sitename/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/converters/example.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/sitename/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/users/functions.php on line 1705
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/sitename/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/converters/example.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear’) in /home/sitename/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/users/functions.php on line 1705
I noticed that the filename is different in the referenced location, it has a capital letter in Example.php When I change the filename it resolves the issue.
Why does it need to reference the Example.php converter anyway?
@drsarf
sorry i forgot about your topic
in page is kind of hard to do since there is usually multiple forums.
the only thing i can think of is maybe outputting the shortcode in a template
like so <?php echo do_shortcode("[shortcode]"); ?>
but then since there is multiple forums you will need multiple shortcodes for each slider.
which would require you to use a bunch of if statements for each forum.
i suggest go to http://jobs.wordpress.net/ and see if a developer can do this for you.
i thought it was because you closed the topic but no your theme is adding some weird CSS to the first topic.
see if this CSS fixes your issue,
#bbpress-forums #top ul:first-child > li > a {
color: #b84444;
}
i found this gist here , and it might be useful.
https://gist.github.com/trishasalas/9818135
plop this into your child theme functions.php or a functionality plugin
add_action( 'bbp_template_before_replies_loop', 'bbpress_rss' );
function bbpress_rss() {
$url = "http" . (($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT']==443) ? "s://" : "://") . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
echo ' <a href="' . $url . 'feed">Subscribe via RSS</a>';
}
EDIT: @netweb thats sweet!!
