@richkraetsch I expect this to be more of an issue with the GD BBPress Tools plugin rather than bbPress, they should have support in that plugin for the custom HTML tags it is using.

You can also try this plugin (and remove that custom code you added), I just added div and sub element class to this and it should work for you, you will need to double check and modify it to remove any HTML tags you do not need, also the next release of bbPress includes some more changes to the allowed KSES HTML tags so you’ll need to update and possibly make some more changes once bbPress 2.6 is released.

Also, how do I remove Topic: and Forum: slug at the title of the page? Where should I enter the filter code?

[emrphy]

I’m trying to set up bbPress, but I’m not using the postname permalinks (for SEO reasons), which is causing problems. So I tried setting it up using Method 2 in the setup guide, which is basically just setting up a page with [bbp-forum-index] on it. That works, but now none of the non-index forum pages work. Just 404 pages.

What should the Forum Root Slug and Single Forum Slugs be? I’m thinking that may be the problem. I’ve been messing around with them but haven’t been able to fix them yet. Thanks for any help!

[richkraetsch]

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)

[atfpodcast]

Fixed I commented the bbpress css code in the theme out. it was included in the theme.

[atfpodcast]

but did you have bbcode under the bbpress menu? its not there. notice the picture I will include another picture with another theme:

[atfpodcast]

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.

Nothing I know of will do that.

[janfeng]

[atfpodcast]

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.

[Robkk]

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;
}

[Robkk]

use robins plugin.

bbp additional shortcodes

remember to read on how to use the plugin on that page too.

[Robkk]

@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.

[Robin W]

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 !

[mnhfile]

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

bbPress Styling Crib

[Robin W]

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

[Robin W]

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.
