Some seriously nice work in your script 🙂
I have just merged your changes into mine
https://gist.github.com/ntwb/7889409/revisions
And I forked your Gist and merged those changes into yours https://gist.github.com/ntwb/7955389/revisions
Both files are the same and you can download either to use and test, using the /revisions it should show you a little clearer the changes I made.
In summary the main updates were:
* Fixes PHP Class name – From Example_Converter to miniBB
* Includes forum slug
* Uses the callback_topic_reply_count for topic/reply counts
* Added topic Author IP
* Added topic slug
* Added topic status (Open/Closed) and callback
* Added reply post id
* Added reply title and reply title callback
* Added reply slug
* Updated password verify class miniBB
* Stores custom user profile _bbp_minibb_user_instantmessenger, _bbp_minibb_user_occupation, _bbp_minibb_user_location & _bbp_minibb_user_interests in wp_usermeta
I have bbPress up and running but was wondering how I might be able to allow users to get an sms text message when there is a new forum post. I have played around with the WordPress Text message plugin but Wasn’t able to figure out a way to incert the codes onto the form pages.

I see where you are coming from, I just went and took a look around backticks in Crayon Syntax Highligher.
Tex uses backticks and appears to render fine based on this http://aksandbox.webege.com/?p=92, I also tried some MySQL with backticks and that also rendered correctly.
You can also add/create your own languages for Crayon:
https://github.com/aramk/crayon-syntax-highlighter/blob/master/langs/readme.md
Some more background on the issues in the past can be read in these two tickets and this was one the main reasons backticks were implemented.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2091 & https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2317
While looking for a solution I noticed that I’m not the only one experiencing this back tick problem – frankly; the editor for bbPress needs some serious reconsideration … isn’t it time for a capable WYSIWYG editor?
I also think we do need a better editor in bbPress, or more so a better editor in WordPress itself that we can use in the ‘front end’ of bbPress.
The install base and use of bbPress is quite large and varied and we try to make it work for all of these cases and is one of the reasons recommending to use plugins that work with bbPress to support your own use case.
Maybe we should have a wider discussion on the bbPress editor and the options available to us.
Thanks for response Stephan,
I actually managed to do this by using some code in loop-search.php and I used the same code in loop-replies.php…heres the code that does it…
<?php if(get_post_type() == 'reply'):?>
<?php // CHECK IF THIS REPLY IS UNDER MEMBERS ONLY FORUM.
$parent = array_reverse(get_post_ancestors($post->ID)); // get an array of all the parent pages in order from most distant to closest.
$first_parent = get_page($parent[0]); //get the first page in the array, which is the most distant parent
$int = apply_filters('the_ID', $first_parent->ID); //filter the $first_parent to get only the wordpress page/post ID, which is an integer like 49 or 565. store it as a variable $int
?>
<?php if($int == 48) :?>
<?php // DISPLAY A MESSAGE SAYING THE REPLY IS HIDDEN ?>
<?php if(!user_subscribed()):?>
<?php //bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'search-reply-membersonly'); ?>
<div class="hidden-forum-comment">This comment is only visible to subscribers. <a href="/join">Click here to subscribe.</a></div>
<?php endif;?>
<?php else :?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'search-reply'); ?>
<?php endif ;?>
<?php elseif(get_post_type() == 'forum'): ?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'search-forum'); ?>
<?php elseif(get_post_type() == 'topic'): ?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'search-topic'); ?>
<?php endif;?>
Hope i’ve pasted that correctly.
48 is the ID of the Members Only Forum.
!user_subscribed() is one of my own functions to check if a user is subscribed to a product with DAP (Digital Access Pass).
If anyone needs more help with this just ask. Be happy to help.
It looks like the issue is fixed?
Anyway see the comment on this ticket in Trac for more details https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2204#comment:3
On each bbPress related page, the bbPress adds a class ‘bbPress’ to the body html element, so adding something like below would solve the problem in a non-obtrusive way.
body.bbPress #nav > li.menu-item-318 > a {
formatting for the highlighted menu item class
}
Where, menu-item-318 is the id of the page which should have been highlighted by the current_page_parent or current_menu_item class, which are not attached (for which this ticket is for).
Of course, this is just a hack, but it does get the work done.
Thanks Stephen for the reply and suggestion.
I’ve looked at those yes and they work great except for code that has backticks in it 🙁 … Some examples shell code that is being posted on my forum actually uses backticks in the code which makes it all a big mess … 🙁
The current “fancy” editor doesn’t work well with code either, specially when switching back and forth between WYSIWYG and code.
In this day and age I’d like to avoid that my visitors have to “code” their own HTML to get a message posted right.
What I’ve done so far:
– create my own rich editor
– disable backticks in bbPress
This works pretty good, but it most certainly is not perfect either.
Obviously changing bbPress core files is a no-no from a maintenance perspective (hence my request).
While looking for a solution I noticed that I’m not the only one experiencing this back tick problem – frankly; the editor for bbPress needs some serious reconsideration … isn’t it time for a capable WYSIWYG editor?
No disrespect intended to the developers!!
I really appreciate the enormous amount of work they have done, and I understand that my editor issues are maybe not the top priority.
I really like bbPress as a forum for WordPress, and I consider it so far the best option out there.
Hello, I am trying to integrate bbPress seamlessly into my custom WordPress theme. However, this theme defines several global variables which are then used by the theme files.
These variables are defined as global variables in header.php of the wordpress theme and are used without problems in all theme files. Example:
header.php
global $variable;
$variable = "value";
single.php
global $variable;
echo $variable; // outputs "value" as it should
So far, so good. But if I try to use the variable in a bbPress theme file, it is empty:
content-single-topic.php
global $variable;
echo $variable; // outputs ""
When bbPress is done, the variable comes back to life:
loop-single.php
echo $variable; // outputs "value" as it should
the_content(); // all the bbPress stuff, $variable empty – what happens there?
echo $variable; // outputs "value" again
Using print_r($GLOBALS), it turns out that in fact all the custom variables cease to exist for the time bbPress is doing its job and than come back to life.
How can I pass a global value to the bbPress theme files without doing absurd things like querying the database?
Sorry, that should be: bbp_get_user_profile_url()
thx. i was hoping for tha filter or action but I can look in the plugin code for the answer.
have a great day!
Okay, sorted!
I took a dive into bbPress source code, and ‘bb_get_user_profile_url()’ is the correct function to use to get to a user’s profile. Here’s the source link
And an example usage:
<?php $this_user = wp_get_current_user(); ?>
<a href="<?php echo bbp_get_user_profile_url($this_user->ID); ?>edit/">Edit Forum profile</a>
Thanks for giving it a shot. Sorry, the code wasn’t a straight copy and paste and I slightly borked it in the post.
It’s basically:
<?php $this_user = wp_get_current_user(); ?>
<a href="/forums/users/<?php echo $this_user->user_login; ?>/edit/">Edit Forum profile</a>
You’ll find that this should generate the same URL as you’ve done.
I thought it might had to do with your linked php part, but have not tried it.
If they are participant, edit profile should work, no idea why you get a 404
EDIT:
Just tried your php code in a link and does not work for me
Thanks @ronthai, but that’s kind of the same thing I’m doing. If you check the source, you’ll see wp_get_current_user() basically abstracts the same thing. Did check out your linked post though, neat idea.
Any idea on the edit profile capabilities? It’s really kicking my arse.
Menu link to Profile
<?php global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();
echo $current_user->user_login . "";
?>
Is it possible to combine Forum Index with Topics by Freshness?
ie. list the fresh topics beneath the Forum title link to which they belong?
I’m not sure why Forum Settings page has:
Topics & Replies Per Page
Topics – How many topics to show per page in the forum index
..when topics is only represented as a number – feels like I may be missing something.
Ok so I’m using buddypress, and as I understand it subscribers to my website have the comments, buddypress, and bbpress all connected. So if you upload a avatar for one it’ll be used for all. As I understand it being on wordpress for a month.
Is there a (simple noob) way or plugin to get options on avatar sizes? And somehow get it to work for buddypress, bbpress, and comments. Or at least bbpress.
In other words if users upload a square avatar it’ll be square in the comments, buddypress profile, and bbpress since they’re all connected. Or if they upload a long rectangular one it’ll be long and rectangular everywhere also. I can settle for square in the comments but I really want long ones in buddy and bbpress.
Or would I have to change the code in buddypress, and in bbpress, and somehow for the comments as I think I do. If thats the case I only ask for help with the bbpress since this is bbpress support.
I know how to change the avatar size in buddypress from this article (though I haven’t tried it yet, I like to gather information then potentially ruin my site afterwards). http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/how-to-change-the-default-buddypress-avatar-sizes/
Problem is I’m not sure if the cropping will still work if I change from square to rectangle as the cropping seems to only work in squares. So I found this article to deal with the cropping. http://offthewallmedia.com/programming/buddypress-crop-avatar-to-any-ratio Though I haven’t tested it yet.
So I just wanted to ask before I mess something up if there is a better way to accomplish all this or if there was a plugin or anything and if I change all these settings in buddypress would it be the same for bbpress andor the comments. Thanks for any help.
Thanks, indeed it does help, gets some of those pesky regex strings half sorted out.
It be extremely keen on seeing what JOIN expressions you used to join the posts & topics table as if I remember correctly this was the only thing holding me back from including this as one of the new featured importers in bbPress 2.5.
You probably want to look into WordPress’ ‘Conditional Tags’
https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags
And then a list of bbPress’ conditional tags https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-conditional-tags/
You can also go down the path of add Post Thumbnails to your forums and topics, not so much replies though unless you have some awesome templates 😉
There is some example code in this thread:
Add Featured Image to the BBpress Index
The creator/developer of bbPress or the Mods, can not help in translations, they just have to trust anybody whom submits a translation.
Kind of correct, all the translations are handled by the same translation process for WordPress
https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/
Using pt_BR as an example if you take a look at: https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev
You will see that Portuguese (Brazil) is at 94% translated, 975 strings translated and 60 strings untranslated.
@tvieira If you open this link it shows you the 60 strings that have yet to be translated for bbPress. You can update these strings yourself and then contact the Brazilian translator team via one of these links to get these translations approved. Once approved they should then become available via WordPress’ automatic updates in the very near future.

I know many sites that are using bbPress for code are using the ‘Crayon Syntax Highlighter’ plugin. Have you had a look at this plugin? Will that do what you require?
The “js minify” feature of performance plugins such as W3TC breaks the bbpress Visual editor. Which code can I add to the “exclude” list to make it work again? Ie. I’m looking for the bbPress TinyMCE/Visual editor js code to add to that list.
WP 3.8
bbPress 2.5.1
Hi,
.bbp-template-notice {
display: none !important;
}
and
.bbp-template-notice p {
display: none !important;
}
Are causing the message that no search results were returned to be hidden, which causes part of the blank page. Along with that you also have a minus margin on your sliderdiv which cause a lot of the bbpress forum to go underneath it.
Good luck!
I’m not 100% on what is happening without seeing a site link, if you can find out where the coupons are being rendered then you could wrap them in if(!is_bbpress()) { }
If you want to make the tickbox ticked by default you could use a small bit of jQuery
jQuery("#checkbox").prop('checked', true);
Then just include it in the admin or frontend – where ever you need it.
