Wow that code is a lot more involved than I thought it would be. I’ll probably end up just using your plugin. Thanks as always! Do I need to send as text/html if I just want the correct line spacing or is there a way to fix that for plain text emails? Right now by default all the carriage returns get stripped by default, that’s really all I’m trying to fix. If I need to send HTML that’s fine but I have a hard time believing the default bbpress notifications should look like this
Hi, I’m having an issue where my forum notifications are not being formatted correctly. None of the spacing that exists in the default notification message exists in the resulting email, and I have confirmed that the message is being sent using the ‘text/html’ content type header. I added a <br> tag to the notification email as a test as well, but it was sent in plain text and not rendered as a line break. Anything I should try?
only show if user is logged out
function bbp_goto_login_page() {
if (!is_user_logged_in ()) {
echo '<p><a href="/login"><div class="gotologin">You must be logged in</div></a></p>' ;
}
}
But you should be seeing the login automatically – what theme and other plugins are you using?
Hi, for some reason the login does not work on bbpress topic page.
I have this code in my functions.php file.
add_action ('bbp_theme_after_reply_form_content' , 'bbp_goto_login_page' ) ;
function bbp_goto_login_page() {
echo '<p><a href="/login"><div class="gotologin">You must be logged in</div></a></p>' ;
}
This is working, but not the way I want. I would like it to only show if user is logged out and it should be visible on the topic page where there is normally the login form.
Is there something like bbp_theme_after_topic_content?
Tried googling, but could not find anything similar.
for the furst two, add this to your theme custom css
.forum h1.page-title, .forum div.page-description p {
display : none ;
}
for the last, install this additional plugin
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Breadcrumbs
ok, I’ve found the problem, and this filter fixes
add_filter ('bbp_after_has_search_results_parse_args', 'rew_search') ;
function rew_search ($args) {
/*mods and above get permissions to see all from line 50 of \bbpress\includes\search/template.php which sets a list of $default['post_status']
//participants/spectators get $default['perm'] = 'readable' set instead of $default['post_status'].
'perm' is a wordpress wp_query setting, and wordpress does not have 'hidden' status, so allows hidden forums to show
//so if $default['perm'] is set, we add a 'post_status' as well to restrict to statuses user is allowed
*/
if (!empty($args['perm'])) {
$post_statuses = array(bbp_get_public_status_id()) ;
// Add support for private status
if ( current_user_can( 'read_private_topics' ) || current_user_can( 'read_private_forums' ) )
$post_statuses[] = bbp_get_private_status_id();
}
// Add support for hidden status
if ( current_user_can( 'read_hidden_forums' )) {
$post_statuses[] = bbp_get_hidden_status_id();
}
// Join post statuses together
$args['post_status'] = $post_statuses;
}
return $args ;
}
if you are using
bbp style pack
then this is included in version 5.0.8 just released
Otherwise put this in your child theme’s function file –
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
or use

I’ll update the bbpress trac ticket shortly
It’s a pleasure to have people like you,@robin-w, around to get things fixed and get the job done. I’m still playing with the above CSS code and it is producing positive results. Thanks a bunch.
A lot of mobile changes depend on the theme being used.

Hi
First, thanks for all the help so far with functions and filters! The forum is done, but there is one feature I missed from the old forum and that’s having the editor autoresize with the content. I think this may be out of scope for this plugin, but perhaps someone knows something.
I looked around and it seems WordPress TinyMCE have this feature, but it’s not enabled. I did some terrible attempt (you’re allowed to laugh) to add it. Not only did it break my toolbar 1, but it didn’t work either
function bbp_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
$args['quicktags'] = false;
$args['teeny'] = false;
$args['tinymce'] = array(
'tinymce' => array(
'toolbar1' => 'formatselect, bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, blockquote, link, forecolor, bullist, numlist, alignleft, aligncenter, alignright, outdent, indent, undo, redo',
'autoresize_min_height' => 100,
'wp_autoresize_on' => true,
'plugins' => 'wpautoresize',
),
);
return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor' );
no it’s my bad coding !!
I hadn’t spotted that you were using a child theme.
I add some code to pick up on this, and be back in the next day
Robin, your code change worked for new topics. Did you say we would need an additional code change for replies?
Oh! I did not see that the code changed when I pasted it in here and the ‘;’ even disappeared. I kept retrying with the one in the documentation.
Thanks again Robin, you’re awesome 🙂
ok, so just looked the documentation says
‘& lt;’
when it should say
‘<‘
etc.
This is just internet stuff between stating and interpreting.
so if you copy the code in your first post, then this is the correct code to have.
I’ll look to correct the documentation
Thank you for trying.
That’s odd.
I’ve tried it again, and also in my functions.php instead of Code Snippets. It doesn’t say there’s any errors until I try to save it.
I tried another theme as well and also to remove all other custom snippets I got, but the same result.
just loaded that code to my test site, and it runs fine.
suggest you delete and try it again
Hi!
I tried a snippet from this page: https://codex.bbpress.org/layout-and-functionality-examples-you-can-use/#24-show-status-labels-for-bbpress-topics
to get a label or icon for sticky topics.
function rk_sticky_topics() {
if ( bbp_is_topic_sticky() && !bbp_is_topic_closed() )
echo '<span class="sticky">[Sticky]</span>';
}
add_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_title', 'rk_sticky_topics' );
I get a fatal error with syntax error unexpected ‘;’ on the line starting with if.
Thank you in advance
I tested this on our staging site. Switching out for the Twenty Twenty theme, the dates populated, so I presume the problem to be the theme. What advice do you have for a fix?
PS: I tried taking out the short code on the member-only (parent) page to allow you access to the forum but it seems to still want a password.

I haven’t made much progress. I tried adding a rewrite rule and changing from ‘users’ from ‘members’ to avoid rules clashing:
function bbp_custom_author_rewrite(){
add_rewrite_rule(
"^forums/members/([^/]*)$",
'index.php?bbp_user=$matches[1]',
"top"
);
}
add_action( 'init', 'bbp_custom_author_rewrite', 10);
But I think I’m missing the part where the template uses the query var to load the correct content because I keep getting 404 errors.
BBpress keeps loading the empty index.php in the TwentyTwentyTwo Child theme I’m working on, which loads a WSOD.
I can’t get any of the template filters to use one of the html files, so temporarily have it working with the index.php file as:
wp_head();
block_header_area();
block_template_part( 'page-inner' );
wp_footer();
block_footer_area();
And… its almost all working? But, this can’t be the right way to get it to use the new default page template in the block theme.
Thoughts? Ideas? How can I get it to use the new theme templates?
Thanks!
ok, so to restrict :
dashboard>forums>all forums>edit the forum you want>right hand side you will find a box called ‘Forum Moderators’ add his name
Then make him a participant.
see thsi for role fresponsibilities
bbPress User Roles and Capabilities
I’m not sure that this wil let him create forums – but I suppose I would ask if he is that dangerous, maybe that’s something he should be asking you to do 🙂
Robin, I applied your code change. Will report results once I have them.
just taken a look, that theme is a ‘block theme’ the new way that themes are written.
If you want to use it. come back and I’ll give you some code to try
ok, so page is now ok, but suspect from
https://middleagedwitch.com/Forums/forum/general-discussion/
that you have a capital F somewhere
so either your permalink is ‘Forums’ or in
dashboard>settings>forums>root forum slug you have ‘Forums’
it needs to be lower case ‘forums’
ok, so I’m guessing you have a page called ‘Forum’ in which you have put the shortcode
[bbp-forum-index]
If so change the permalink on this page from ‘forum’ to ‘forums’ and it should all work
Hi there,
I’m trying to find a solution to the problem of participants being able to remove single topic tags by simply removing them from the “Tags” input field on the reply-to form.
I’ve found this thread that clearly explains the issue
Topic tags deleted by other participants
and offers a solution that is unfortunately not working on my end.
My form-reply.php currently has this line:
<?php if ( bbp_allow_topic_tags() && current_user_can( 'assign_topic_tags', bbp_get_topic_id() )) : ?>
which I tried to replace with:
<?php if ( bbp_allow_topic_tags() && current_user_can( 'assign_topic_tags', bbp_get_topic_id() ) && current_user_can('moderate') ) : ?>
to no avail.
Has anyone solved this issue? Would love some guidance here! 🙂
