Is there anyone else who hasn’t gotten this code to work for them? I have tried everything and am still getting the issue of HTML showing up in quotes with quotes in them. I’ve copied this code to my includes/common/formatting.php and have seen zero change.
(I’m using GD BBPress Tools for my quote functionality)


Fixed I commented the bbpress css code in the theme out. it was included in the theme.
but did you have bbcode under the bbpress menu? its not there. notice the picture I will include another picture with another theme:

Its my theme Im using. raindrops and it has bbpres css code in it. so it works now. yay
The bbPress project along with BuddyPress and WordPress is testing out Slack as our main real-time communication platform, replacing IRC chats for developer related discussions.
If you are a current contributor to bbPress or would like to start contributing and help with the development of bbPress then this is the place to come and have a chat.
A brief summary is here: https://codex.bbpress.org/participate-and-contribute/
Full setup details and how to request an invite to link your WordPress.org account with a Slack.com account are here:
https://chat.wordpress.org/ https://wordpress.slack.com/apps
Note: This is a not a new support channel or forum for bbPress support.

That’s odd. At first I thought it was a firefox issue but it works on another site. So it has to be the theme.

your theme already has some bbpress styling in the main theme stylesheet.
it has background:none!important;
its kind of messy just adding !important again but it did work on my end
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-header {
background: purple!important;
}
use robins plugin.
bbp additional shortcodes
remember to read on how to use the plugin on that page too.
@atfpodcast deactivate the new ui plugin, if you still have a problem reply back.
@mnhfile
just post the css code in just one thing, dont put it into two places.And if you also have bbpress new ui deactivate that.
to make categorized forums, first go to the forums section in the backend click the menu link with the beehive.
whatever forum you want to make a category change the type in the sidebar in the right. change from forum to category.
to add forums to this category, click any forum you want to be a child of the category and make the parent the certain category.
change the order number to customize the positioning, top category starts at zero then the children forums go off that.
you should end up with something like this.
first category 0
-first forum 1
-second forum 2
-third forum 3
second category 4
-fourth forum 5
-fifth forum 6
third category 7
-sixth forum 8
Thank you Robin!
This code works for me.
function bbp_single_replies_show($args) {
if(is_singular( 'download' )) {
$args['posts_per_page'] = 3 ;
$args['max_num_pages'] = 1;
}
return $args;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_has_replies_parse_args','bbp_single_replies_show');
Now I have a custom page type post comments remove, and set the theme forum with the number of responses 3. Thank you very much.
Then the changes have not reverted !!
Are you running any caching software?
Otherwise re-install bbpress (you’ll not lose ant data) and start again.
This time don’t alter core files, use a child theme
Functions files and child themes – explained !
https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-styling-crib/ I past the codes to bbpress.css and child theme css … nothing happens … I alter the codes and add another one with !important tag but all in vain…
One more question bbshowcase.org/forums/view/available-themes how to install these themes only in bbpress forums. please give me some illustration ..
I try a lot of methods like
-copy bb theme files to child main theme directory
-rename bb theme style.css to bbpress.css and paste to child theme directory ..I past in main folder as well as in css folder of child theme..
I shall be thankful to you if you help me in installing premade custom layouts of bbpress theme
Hi guys,
I’m using [bbp-topic-index] shortcode to display a list of topics in my home page. That shortcode displays a list of 15 topics and I’d need to limit that number. Can I add some instruction to the shortcode or I need to modify the php function?
Thank you
yes,
Your ‘experts’ will be participants, or even moderators.
Then for your ‘normal’ you’ll need to set up a custom role
see
Custom Capabilities
https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/
you just need to set up a role where the user can not do any of the reply capabilities
If you are then allowing some form of automatic registration, then set the default bbpress role to this custom one in dashboard>settings>forums auto role
try
function bbp_single_replies_show($args) {
$args['posts_per_page'] = 3 ;
$args['max_num_pages'] = 1;
return $args;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_has_replies_parse_args','bbp_single_replies_show');
I have not tested – I am quite busy at the moment – but keep trying !
1, Install plugin: WPFront User Role Editor
2, Go to Roles => Settings and check “Override Edit Permissions” Save it.
2, Go to Roles => All roles => and choose Participant, it has 8 or more capabilities
3, You need uncheck publish_topics and edit_topics and assign_topic_tags and delete_topic_tags
4, Save it.
You do not need to change php code as above 🙂
If you need my own participation, send me your e-mail address.
I also try this code nothing right happen.. I am using DIVI theme of elegant themes
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-header,
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-footer {
background: #9099B5;
border-top: 1px solid #eee;
font-weight: bold;
padding: 8px;
text-align: center;
Still out of luck
I past/replace this code in bbpress.css in css folder child theme but whole forum page turns into one background colur
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-header {
background: #8398C1;
}
I also post this into my child theme style.css and results in very awkward graphics

1. follow this link look at number 1 to see if you have the right css , copy that into whatever place you can put custom css
jetpack custom css module
custom css plugin
bbpress.css
bbPress Styling Crib
2. Follow this link and follow these instructions
To use this template:
1. Download the file below to your PC, and unzip it.
2. Using FTP go into your theme, and create a bbpress folder
wp-content/your-theme-name/bbpress
where your-theme-name is the name of your theme
3. Copy the file you downloaded to this folder, so that you end up with
wp-content/your-theme-name/bbpress/loop-forums.php
Alternate bbpress index page
here are some more links in the codex that might be useful
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – part 2
if you still dont see any changes in css after you have followed all the information correctly.
the last thing i could think could cause the problem is either clearing cache
and also bbpress- new ui plugin , if you have this installed it might cause some issues in styling
Unfortunately I learn php 10 months, and did not know too much. I add this code:
function bbp_single_replies_show($args) {
$args['posts_per_page'] = 3 ;
return $args;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_has_replies_parse_args','bbp_single_replies_show');
it does not work for me. I looked at your plugin, but highlight the desired fragment, I could not. I thought it would be easy, you can help me?
