I do it with this snippet. For WordPress and bbPress together. Local links are opened normally, only extern are target blank. Dont forget to change your domain line.
// Make URL Clickable In WordPress, bbPress (plus target=”_blank”)
add_filter( 'the_content', 'make_clickable');
function autoblank($text) {
$myurl = 'http://your-domain.com';
$external = str_replace('href=', 'target="_blank" href=', $text);
$external = str_replace('target="_blank" href="'.$myurl, 'href="'.$myurl, $external);
$external = str_replace('target="_blank" href="#', 'href="#', $external);
$external = str_replace('target = "_blank">', '>', $external);
return $external;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'autoblank');
add_filter('bbp_get_topic_content', 'autoblank',255);
add_filter('bbp_get_reply_content', 'autoblank',255);
Remove nofollow if you need to !
function mtn_weekly_fix_rel_follow( $content ) {
// Find rel="nofollow", replace with empty space.
$content = preg_replace( '/rel="nofollow"/', ' ', $content);
return $content;
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'mtn_weekly_fix_rel_follow', 20 );
add_filter('bbp_get_topic_content', 'mtn_weekly_fix_rel_follow',255);
add_filter('bbp_get_reply_content', 'mtn_weekly_fix_rel_follow',255);
wherever it says (think it’s more than once)
'type' => 'both', 'size' => 14 ) );
change to
'type' => 'name', 'size' => 14 ) );
I am using a wordpress skin that integrates BBPress very nicely. One thing I am looking to do, however is make the bbpress forums have a hierarchy like any other software out there currently. I am not that amazing at coding and would appreciate if someone could explain in an easy to understand way. If it’s something that I would have to code completely over, i’d be willing to pay someone to help me code that.
Thank You
add the following to your functions file
add_filter('private_title_format', 'pg_remove_private_title');
function pg_remove_private_title($title) {
return '%s';
}
Functions files and child themes – explained !
That worked perfectly! And the code you mentioned earlier in the thread is perfect. Thanks for your help 🙂
You’ll need to register it for it to go live, try the following in your functions file
add_action( 'widgets_init', function(){
register_widget( 'BBP_Topics_Widget2');
});
I copied the entire Recent Topics widget code into my functions.php
You need to copy and rename it.
Then you use this new named widget, not the old one, so need to cal the new name in your sidebar.
Hi Robin
I’m trying to get the same functionality that SeeingBlue is looking for. I copied the entire Recent Topics widget code into my functions.php, and I added your code in the correct place, but the widget is still behaving exactly the same.. Any idea what else I need to do?
Thanks
Van
it could be just making the font-size smaller.
copy this CSS anywhere you can put custom CSS
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-author a.bbp-author-name,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author a.bbp-author-name,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author a.bbp-author-name {
font-size:12px;
}
@discdemo
remove Dougs code and see if just using this will fix it. it does the same thing.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/
also see if deactivating wp-edit will fix the problem , i tried it awhile ago with the visual editor code and it was kind of buggy.
if you haven’t already copy all of your bbPress templates to a folder called bbpress in your child theme
follow this codex guide.
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/
and also check if its a theme issue , switch to a default theme like twentytwelve and see if the issue is still there or not.
@dougismith I’m getting this when I try your suggested code.
Any ideas, anyone? This was placed where the child theme for buddy press
states to, in the functions.php. (I’ using a theme called BuddyBoss, fyi)
Thanks, all.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘&’, expecting ‘]’ in /home/agonyofd/public_html/wp-content/themes/buddyboss-child/functions.php on line 60

Ah ha! I see what you mean (maybe). So something in content-single-forum.php like this?
<?php
if( bbp_is_forum_group_forum( bbp_get_forum_id() )){
bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'topic' );
}else{
echo '<a href="/">You could link to your form or whatever else here.</a>';
}
?>
rather than what’s there now:
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'topic' ); ?>
Then you could use the shortcode [bbp-topic-form] on a new page and link to that page.
I made another test trying to create a new topic (thread) from the form under the listing given by [bbp-singl-forum id=6] and it give me back the following error:
ERROR: No tienes permisos para crear nuevos hilos.
Which is Spanish for You do not have permission to create new topics.
After having installed, configured and started some forums and subforums with the initial threads (topics), suddenly I found some issues, maybe related with some new plugins I’ve been installing on the same site:
– Forums URLs give 404 errors
– Topics URLs are found OK
– No reply is possible to those topics even when logged as Admin (Keymaster). BBPress shows this error:
ERROR: You do not have permission to reply.
ERROR: This forum is private and you do not have the capability to read or create new replies in it.
When testing shortcodes on a test page it gives the following results:
[bbp-forum-index] -> No forum is listed
[bbp-single-forum id=6] -> Forum is shown with its topics
[bbp-topic-index] -> Topics are listed OK
Any idea?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Fix it. Just add global $active_signup; in selena_network_signup_main. Already update this file on gists.github.
This works for me :
1) Add this to function.php in your child theme
via http://bavotasan.com/2014/add-media-upload-button-to-bbpress/
Open up your functions.php file and add the following snippet to get it working:
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bavotasan_bbpress_upload_media' );
/**
* Allow upload media in bbPress
*
* This function is attached to the 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args' filter hook.
*/
function bavotasan_bbpress_upload_media( $args ) {
$args['media_buttons'] = true;
return $args;
}
So now you have the Add Media button in the posting
2) What you need now is to fine tune the user capabilities so that not only administrators but normal users can upload media direct to the form post using the Add Media button
I am using the Capability Manager Enhanced plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/capability-manager-enhanced
I guess you could use a Custom user type (e.g. clone the normal participants) to experiment. Later on you could edit all your users and convert them to this Custom user type
Check the ability to:
a) Upload files
b) Unfiltered HTML
for this Custom user type
I guess it comes with risks but it has the benefits of direct Media upload to the bbPress forum
It’s not only images but other media e.g. PDF (which works nicely with thhe Google Doc Embedder Plugin
I know this is a tad bit old however I happened to stumble on this post while I was looking for a way to increase both the page to 100 posts and the parent page to show all 100 posts as well. The solution above adding to the functions page did not work for me even upon changing it to the proper code.
I did however find the same solution as jameswordpress did but there are multiple lines.
to edit so that both the parent forum and the selected forum page to show more than 50 forums.
To do this edit template.php located in:
/bbpress/includes/forums/template.php
Change line 135:
'posts_per_page' => get_option( '_bbp_forums_per_page', 50 ),
to:
'posts_per_page' => get_option( '_bbp_forums_per_page', 100 ),
———-
Also changing line 708 should effect the parent page (at least it did for myself):
'posts_per_page' => get_option( '_bbp_forums_per_page', 50 ),
to:
'posts_per_page' => get_option( '_bbp_forums_per_page', 100 ),
You can change the value of 50 to whatever you desire.
I apologize I should have been a little more specific.
It is actually the actual content of the single forum that I would like to be different.
This little piece of code <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'topic' ); ?> is what adds the topic form to the forum. For the main forum I would like to remove that and for the group forums, the topic form should still show.
The form to add a topic to the main forums would be on a separate page.
You’re funny.
Hi,
I have a forum and i would like use wowhead for item link.
I can’t find a plugin for that and i decided to code one. But when i post with the keymaster all is okay, but when it’s au simple user they can’t use the html tag.
How allowed participant to use this html tag <item>item id</item>
this is my code
function add_tags(){
add_filter( 'bb_allowed_tags', 'wow_item_allowed_tags',9);
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_content', 'wow_item',9);
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_content', 'wow_item',9);
}
function wow_item( $text ) {
$text = preg_replace('|(<item>)(.*?)(</item>)|', '$2', $text);
return $text;
}
function wow_item_allowed_tags() {
return array(
'item' => array(),
'a' => array(
'href' => array(),
'title' => array(),
'class' => array(),
'rel' => array()
)
);
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'add_tags' );
Thank you for your responses 🙂
Ok — again, I think this is what you mean. It might not be! I’ve left in some bits that will show you exactly what’s happening.
<?php while ( bbp_forums() ) : $forum = bbp_the_forum();
// if it's a group forum, then this is true
if( bbp_is_forum_group_forum( bbp_get_forum_id() )){
echo '<strong>The following *is* a group forum:</strong>';
// this is the bit you would change to your new template. And take out those echos, they're just something I find useful and thought you might too! :)
bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'single-forum' );
}
// if it's not a group forum, do this
else{
echo '<strong>The following *is not* a group forum:</strong>';
bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'single-forum' );
}
?>
Slightly off topic, I think that winky icon in my previous post looks a bit creepy. It might be just me though.
So what you want is if a forum is in a group, it gets one template and if it’s not in a group, it gets another? eg in loop-forums.php you want something like:
<?php while ( bbp_forums() ) : bbp_the_forum(); ?>
if( this is a group forum ){
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'single-group-forum' ); ?>
}
else{
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'single-forum' ); ?>
}
<?php endwhile; ?>
where bpp_get_template_part( ‘loop’, ‘single-group-forum’ ); gets a template part named “loop-single-group-forum.php” that you’ve created, probably by copying and modifying “loop-single-forum.php”.
I’d think that’d be possible but while I’m looking for whatever goes in that if statement, want to check that that’s what you mean! No worries if not, one of my core competencies is misreading and misunderstanding posts. 😉
In some cases, it might be because the subscription emails are now being sent with all subscribers bbc’ed in rather than individually from a created no-reply address. The reason for the change is that posting new replies or topics was taking too long as it cycled through sending those emails. However, for some people (myself included), that wasn’t an issue.
You can go back to the previous way as outlined here (as I mentioned, I have similar code in a plugin) but it should work if you put it in a file called bbp-functions.php in your bbpress theme.
Actually, you might — after doing all the things you would do before you install a new plugin — try going back to the previous way with this: MJJ bbP 2.5.3 Subs. It does what it says on the tin, just uses the old functions from bbPress 2.5.3 to send subscription mails. Again, it might slow down new replies or topics. It doesn’t for me but just keep an eye on it.
