Hi Robin

Sorry for disappearing on this. I was so busy with the rest of the site, I had to leave the forum to one side.

Anyway, thanks for your suggestions above. I tried them out and have unfortunately hit a couple of snags

1) I’m finding that once I login using the BBP login form, I’m left with a blue box that says ‘You are already logged in’. Is it possible to make this disappear, once logged in. Or if not, have you redirected to a different page once successfully logged in?

2) Is it possible to say exactly where in the menu the ‘Edit Profile’ goes? I would prefer it not to be a top level menu item and to go into the dropdown menu instead

3) Is the intention that I put the [bbp-forum-index] shortcode underneath the [BBP-login] shortcode? I want people to be taken straight to the forum once they have succesfully logged in. At the moment when I put those two shortcodes on a page together, I am getting a php error along the lines of

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by...

I think this might be to do with me using the Genesis framework?

I have alreday installed the Genesis Extend BBpress plugin

[Themes de France]

Hey guys,
As a theme developper I wanted to bring bbPress support and I was facing the same issue.

The plugin that @robin-w brought was working but I know something was wrong with my theme.

I managed to make it work without the plugin by deleting this snippet from functions.php :
https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/pre_get_posts#Exclude_Pages_from_Search_Results

The intent of this snippet is to exclude pages from search results and I guess this was conflicting with WP4.

If you have this problem with your theme, look for “pre_get_posts” actions and if the search query is updated.

Hope that can helps 🙂

Thanks, that did the trick. Looking back, I probably should have noticed that was the problem! It was obvious in the error message.

Setting up the role worked, but if I set “spectate” to false, the role can’t see the forum at all to even post.

After searching some more, I found there was a bbPress setting to allow “anonymous” posting without an account. With that enabled, and the forum set to public, I used the following code to hide the list of topics from users who aren’t logged in (I believe they always come back with an ID of 0).

This is in the “loop-single-topic.php” file. I’ll probably also need to add this code to template files that display single topics, in case any sneaky people figure out the URL structure. The concept remains the same, however.

<?php 
    $currentUserID = bbp_get_current_user_id(); 
    if($currentUserID == '0'){
        //Display stuff if user's ID is 0 (they aren't logged in)
    } else {
        //Put all the topic loop code here, it will display if the user is logged in (has an ID other than 0
    }
?>

This seems like a pretty secure way to do it, none of the topic information is displaying in the source code or anything like that. I’ll add any other relevant information I find tomorrow. For now, it’s time to sleep.

**EDIT**
I’ll definitely need to set something up with regards to the single topic templates. Creating a new topic as an anonymous user still redirects you to that topic. I’ll have something tomorrow.

I deactivated these plugins that added bbcode. They worked at first. I did this on a fresh install of wordpress for a new site. It works for ie, chrome etc I have debugging on. What would be the cause? The plugin author says its plugin i dont know… So I thought I would use the bbpress defaults and those dont work.

[atfpodcast]

I deactivated the bbcode and white ilst and the default took bar is not showing in firefox. I will open another thread. Why this so hard? blah

At https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/2.5.x I see 99% translated 🙂 You can translate some missing phrases. After that at the bottom of the page choose all current and Machine Object Message Catalog (.mo). Click the Export link. You download the file with translations.
After that rename downloaded file to bbpress-pt_BR.mo and put it in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/languages/ and you done.

@atfpodcast
i just checked on my side with the latest raindrops theme ,

i checked to see if all of the quicktag buttons worked
they did.

i checked if some of the bbcodes from gdbbpress and bbpress2 bbcode didnt just process the bbcode out well
they did.

i didnt run bbpress2 bbcode with bbpress direct quotes while gdbbpress tools activated at the same time, because i mean they do the same thing.

if you feel like the quicktags toolbar is really causing the problem and you have some error logs to post or images of error logs or any other info you can get while debugging is on, make a new topic with all the information in it.

[Robin W]

sorry, there is a very minor error, a missing _

add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_new roles', 1 );

should read

add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_new_roles', 1 );

I’ll update the codex!

[Preston]

I’m just using the code copied right off the page at the moment: http://pastebin.com/qVFx300V

Originally, I edited it to suit my needs, but I thought the error came about because of my editing.

[Robin W]

The template you choose in the page only applies to that page, you need to set up the file as bbpress.php to get it used throughout (I don’t write bbpress so can’t tell you why!)

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

[Robin W]

functions file should be fine.

Can you post the exact code you put in the file.

[Preston]

One last follow up for anyone who comes across this later on.

For the select drop downs on the edit page, I decided to “cheat” with jQuery to make sure the correct value is still selected.

This is the code in my functions.php file that creates the select input:

$play_os = get_post_meta( $topic_id, 'bbp_app_character_playos', true);
echo '<br><label for="bbp_app_character_playos">Select Input Label</label><br>';
echo '<select id="bbp_app_character_playos" name="bbp_app_character_playos" data-value="' . $play_os . '">
    <option value="Yes" class="os-yes">Yes</option>
    <option value="No" class="os-no">No</option>
</select>';

I’m displaying the current value in the data-value attribute so I can use it in the jQuery below:

function appEditValues(){
    var playOsVal = jQuery('.topic-edit #bbp_app_character_playos').attr('data-value');
    if(playOsVal == "Yes"){
        jQuery('.topic-edit #bbp_app_character_playos').find('.os-yes').attr('selected','selected');
    } else if (playOsVal == "No"){
        jQuery('.topic-edit #bbp_app_character_playos').find('.os-no').attr('selected','selected');
    }
}

The jQuery code adds the “selected” attribute to the appropriate option on the edit page, which of course causes that value to be selected and save correctly again when you finish editing.

[Preston]

I think that might get me to where I want to be. Assuming if I remove the “spectate” ability they can’t view any topics, but still post a topic.

When I implement the second set of code (for Creating New Roles) from this page: https://codex.bbpress.org/custom-capabilities/. I get the following error in the admin area:
Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, function ‘add_new roles’ not found or invalid function name in /wp-includes/plugin.php on line 214

I thought it might be a conflict with the plugins I had installed, but disabling them didn’t solve anything. I assume the code is supposed to go into my functions.php file? That’s where I tried it anyway.

Thanks for the help.

bbPress forums play an important part in an outdoor recreation club site I administer. Members make heavy use of notification emails to be informed of changes in scheduled events.

Html entities in notification emails annoy the members. The members are non-technical. They don’t understand why characters such as & ‘ and – are replaced with strange codes in email.

The fix is trivial, apply html_entity_decode() to the subject and message body before sending. I don’t see any security risk in this. (Someone please let me know if there is a risk; I’m using this fix on the site.)

Can this be added to bbPress?

[Robkk]

Perhaps it is related to the toolbar in bbPress?

what do you mean??

the toolbar just puts out basic html, i dont have an idea why it would be causing the problem.

if you think adding a bbcode plugin will make that bbpress quicktags toolbar use the bbcode instead that wont happen you need some custom functions.

and just in case you didnt know to use the bbcode you have to manually write something like this

[readwriteandedit]

I’m trying to format the background and the border for the lead topic, just as you’ve done here in the bbPress forum. I used Firebug to see your code, which is

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic li.bbp-body {
    border: 1px solid #dd6;
}
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic li.bbp-body div.topic {
    background-color: #0099FF;
}

But when I add this to my child theme’s CSS (where I’ve successfully made other bbPress changes), nothing changes.

I don’t know if something else I’ve changed is preventing this from changing or maybe if you have something in the setup that I don’t have, something that allows you to style this in CSS when I can’t.

Any suggestions? The forum is private, but I can get you in temporarily, if that would help. Or I could paste into a comment all the changes to bbPress I made in my CSS.

(Note: I changed your color for testing purposes)

Thanks for any help you can give me.

@pilxy i can see on my mobile device but not really on desktop

and you should just revert any changes you made that involves this issue ,and just wait until your theme author updates the theme.

like i said the main problem is that the div class that they used for the reply link in the comments section is just .reply and to make sure it doesnt have conflicts with bbPress it should be just like .comment-reply or any other class besides .reply .

And when they use .reply a they could have just used .comment-reply-link since thats the a class

there is some css that needs to be fixed that uses .reply , in the style.css and some in the rtl.css

and there is also probably some css in the mobile stylesheet

there is a function that uses .reply a and .reply a:hover in the custom-styles.php file.

all these things and probably more if i missed something need to be changed

[dxlwebs]

thank you so much for your support with that link in the end i ported the code from an original wp theme(stock with the install) into a file called bbpress.php and inserted that file into the custom theme im using, i also removed the edit function from the original code as its not required on that page.

my next question if i can is that that page shows its name in the tab as kixeyeunion.uk/forums instead of saying Forums is there anyway to change that?

[Robin W]

see

https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/

and

Custom Capabilities

you need to play with setting up some new roles probably one that has topic capabilities but not reply capabilities, and setting that to the default.

[Preston]

Thanks, I got it figured out as far as text fields keeping content when editing.

I changed the start of my bbp_applications_fields to the following (in case anyone comes accross this thread):

function bbp_application_fields() {
	$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id();
	$application_forum_id = 34;
	$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id();
	$topic_edit_id = bbp_get_topic_forum_id( $topic_id );
	if( $forum_id == $application_forum_id || $topic_edit_id == $application_forum_id ) {

My select fields still don’t retain their content when editing, but I suspect that’s due to some jQuery I’m using to show/hide certain options based on other select boxes.

**EDIT**
It looks like none of the select fields come back with their saved value, just whatever the starter value is. I’ll keep playing around with it.

[aniaorome]

Solved it!

For future reference, try commenting everything in your custom theme functions.php file.

In my case, the problem came from a custom pre_get_posts action hook.

Good luck!

[Robkk]

see if creating a bbpress.php would help
