And thanks here as well… I’ve been wishing the Subscribe toggle was over further to the right, and the necessary code for that is included on the page you’ve linked to above…

Thank you but I meant on which files I can edit these HTML CODES above ? I dont find the file’s name.

I finally managed to get to something displaying the top level forums. Guys it took me hours to do something so simple. Really should be part of the documentation somewhere. Pasting the code here in case if helps someone:

if (bbp_is_forum_archive()) {
	$forums = bbp_get_forums_for_current_user();
	echo '<ul>';
	foreach ( $forums as $forum ) {
		if ($forum->post_parent == 0) {
		echo '<li><a href="' . bbp_get_forum_permalink($forum->ID) . '">';
		echo $forum->post_title;
		echo '</a></li>';
		}
	}
	echo '</ul>';
}

[Robin W]

yes, but you’d need some php, so depends what you mean by ‘I don’t really know PHP’

the plugin bbp-last-post plays with code in this area, so take a look at that

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-last-post/

and look at

bbpress/includes/common/wdgets.php for how to put a title in

[Cole]

Thanks for the reply Robin,

Though the the code stated in that article doesnt work with my theme/forum:
#bbpress-forums .status-closed, #bbpress-forums .status-closed a {color: #000 !important;}

I put it in my theme CSS and also tried a CSS plugin with no result.

[Robin W]

the style for closed is

Hi Guys,

I cannot find on which file I can edit these codes ?

I’d like to thank @peterwsterling for modifying the plugin to allow a custom shortcode setting and make it compatible with WP Polls.
You’re a genius!

[Cole]

The code has definitely helped me with the trials of trying to understand bbpress.
I was wondering if anyone knows how to edit the colour of threads that are locked?
I guess for my theme, Customizr, the text is grey over a light pink background which makes it very hard to see…
Any help pointing to the right direction would be most helpful

[nirgalo]

Is there a shortcode to display same thing as the widget used on the support forum, listing all the available forums with post count for each? I am using the forum index widget but this one is only listing the forum names.

I guess I can write some code using bbp_list_forums, then looping over the results and usnig bbp_get_forum_post_count for each one. If there is some sample code out there to do this I’d rather use it too 🙂 Thanks.

[akkkarki]

Meanwhile I’ve solved the problem myself; it was a just a silly exception, which caused the page not to load wholly. Here’s my solution:

in the /themes/academica/functions/theme/functions.php change this part (lines 143-149):

    } elseif ( is_single() ) {
      if (!is_attachment()) {
      $cat = get_the_category(); $cat = $cat[0];
      echo get_category_parents($cat, TRUE, ' ' . $delimiter . ' ');
      echo $currentBefore;
      the_title();
      echo $currentAfter; }

to this:

    } elseif ( is_single() ) {
      if (!is_attachment()) {
	    $cat = get_the_category(); $cat = $cat[0];
		//support bbPress
		if (empty($cat)) {
		  echo $currentBefore;
          the_title();
          echo $currentAfter;
	    } else {
		  echo get_category_parents($cat, TRUE, ' ' . $delimiter . ' ');
          echo $currentBefore;
          the_title();
          echo $currentAfter;
		}
      }

That’s it, bbPress now works like a charm! 😉

Cheers!

If this challenge I am having is beyond the scope of help in the bbpress forums, then I understand. The below code is a function that allows the user to submit a search request for a book title via the google books api. When the user clicks “search”, the function works great and returns results in a Jquery window. The problem I am having; it triggers a submit of the bbpress topic, and I get the errors “cannot submit a topic with the subject line blank.”

If there is a simple fix I am not seeing, can someone please help me?

function book_search_google () {    
  //set API version for Google Book Search API
  $v = isset($_POST['v']) ? $_POST['v'] : '1';
  //set user API key for Google Book Search API
  $key = isset($_POST['key']) ? $_POST['key'] : 'key goes here';
  //set user IP for Google Book Search API
  //$ip = isset($_POST['ip']) ? $_POST['ip'] : $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
  //set default value for query to Google Book Search API 0307387941
  $query = isset($_POST['q']) ? $_POST['q'] : '0307387941';
  //set default value for search type to Google Book Search API
  $type = isset($_POST['type']) ? $_POST['type'] : 'all';
  //check and assign page of search results - are we on the first page?
  $start = isset($_POST['start']) ? $_POST['start'] : 1;
  //set default value for number of results
  $limit = isset($_POST['limit']) ? $_POST['limit'] : '10';

  switch ($type) {

    case 'all':
      $params = 'q='.urlencode($query).'&startIndex='.$start.'&maxResults='.$limit;

    break;

      exit;

Hi,

To start off, I followed the directions I found here, and I have a child theme set up.

The text and background from my forum are both very white. I’d like to change the background to something darker. Ideally, it would match the look of my widgets, but at this point, I’d take a plain black background.

Here’s my site: http://www.lagsquid.com/forums

Here’s what I’ve been trying:

#bbpress-forums li.bbp-header,
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-footer {
	background: #4b8e2c;
}

#bbpress-forums {
	margin-bottom: 10px;
	border: 1px solid #666;
	padding: 12px;
	background-color: #000000;
	color: #ffffff;
}

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-title h3,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-title h3,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-title h3,
#bbpress-forums a.bbp-forum-title,
#bbpress-forums a.bbp-topic-permalink {
	font-size: 16px;
	color: #0066FF;
}

#bbpress-forums a.bbp-author-name {
	font-size: 12px;
	color: #75A3FF;
}

Now, as I said, I’d really like to make the background of my forums look like the widgets. I’m not sure, but I think the code is this:

.widget{
	margin-bottom: 10px;
    border: 1px solid #666;
	padding: 12px;
	background: url('images/footer-bg.png') repeat left top;
}

Only, I can’t seem to get url('images/footer-bg.png') repeat left top; to work. Any help would be appreciated!

My apologies if this doesn’t make any sense as it’s 2am and I’ve been working on this for quite a bit 😛

[palmdoc]

Pete I’d really like to use both.
Is it difficult to edit the plugin code and change the short code name?

[peterwsterling]

Hi, thanks for trying out my plugin – I hope you enjoy using it. But sorry yes you are right; any two plugins that use the same shortcode are never going to work together. I trust you can figure out which of the two you want to continue using.

Regards,
Pete

[Stephen Edgar]

@shpitzyl Thanks for sharing your code, now I need to come up with a way to keep and organize all these snippets of code…

[Stephen Edgar]

@batmanfan Instead of making this second user a ‘keymaster’ you should make them a ‘moderator’ and this will disable the backend access for you.

Look at the docs here on what each role can and cannot do by default
https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/

[tharsheblows]

There’s probably a plugin for it but I would cheat and make an email address that forwarded to all of the email addresses I wanted. I’ve had a couple of email customisation plugins fail over various updates, so I don’t have any to recommend!

Otherwise, the new user notification emails are pluggable functions which means that you need to override them in a plugin. The function in question starts at line 1569 here: https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-includes/pluggable.php

Don’t edit that code – it will get overwritten in a future update – that’s just the function that you would use to make your own plugin (or what any plugin that does it will use).

[batmanfan]

Can anyone help on this wp-modal plugin?
http://codex.bbpress.org/modal-login-in-a-menu/#%c2%a01-install-wp-modal-login

I managed to follow the set up instruction all ok and can see the login/out pop up and can login ok. But can’t register new user! after entering new username/email and click ‘signup’ it’s reading…’checking credential’ and then back to register page again, nothing happens.

What have I done wrong?

[tharsheblows]

Sure – this is what I did on a test install. The current menu item class in mine is “current-menu-item” and I added a custom class “forum-class” to the forum menu item in my custom menu. I *always* forget that I need to unhide the css class input by ticking the box in “Screen options” at the top of the “edit menus” screen in admin. You probably don’t but I thought I’d mention. 🙂 Then I use that for the jQuery.

So:

1 – add “forum-class” to your forums menu item in your custom menu
2 – add this to your js file with YOURURL = the url of your site and forums = your forums slug :

$(function() { 
	      var forumURL = window.location.href.indexOf("YOURURL/forums/");
	      if(forumURL > -1){
	      	$('li.forum-class').addClass('current-menu-item');
	      }
	}); 

nb: addClass won’t add duplicate classes so no need to test if it’s already there.

[Phoenix]

Thanks for your attention.
I have copied the template (fullpage.php), renamed to (bbpress.php) and put into the root.
But, the sidebar shown, because calling code of sidebar in the “footer.php” template.
And when i delete the calling code of footer from bbpress.php i have lost all plugins (counters in footer) which shown in the bbpress.php page.
Thanks in advance.

My ites forum: http://med.gn24.net/forum

[jezza101]

Shortcode support now added to 0.4.

I’ll have a look at some of the other points above. I’ve begun working on 0.5!

[John James Jacoby]

* Visit Admin > Users
* Tick the box next to your account
* Use the right-most drop-down and select “Key Master”
* Save the page

I’ll note again that under normal circumstances this should happen automatically when activating bbPress. Sorry it didn’t, and I’m curious to know any other plugins you may have installed (to see if there’s some conflict with one of them that prevented this.)

[pinkhare]

Thank you so much, tharsheblows! And your answer is very helpful to me.

I also suppose your method is the right choice than the former which has a flurry of IF statements. Could you post your code for me, please?
Thanks again. 🙂
