Further study of the code showed that works for all addresses where /users/.
It closes the profile / forums / users / name /
And doesn’t work for / forums / users / name / replies /

[Robin W]

This function will take all attempts to go to the replies page to whatever url you want

add_action( 'bbp_template_redirect', 'neon_check_replies');

function neon_check_replies(){
	//only execute if the url contains both /users/ and /replies/, so test for this first
	if (strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '/users/') == FALSE  && strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '/replies/') == FALSE) return ;
	else wp_redirect( 'https://example.com/some/page' );
}

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

ok, so using this process for each of the following files in place of xxfilexx.php below

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/xxfilexx.php

transfer this to your pc and edit

and save

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/xxfilexx.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

so template 1.

\templates\default\bbpress\user-profile.php

to remove lines 42 & 43 to tale out the counts if you wish.

then template 2

templates\default\bbpress\user-details.php

take out lines 34-60

then templates

\templates\default\bbpress\user-topics-created.php
\templates\default\bbpress\user-replies-created.php

take out all the code between the 2 ‘do_action’ lines

That should get you there

[Robin W]

ok, so you say you get an error

Error thrown
Call to a member function get_users_for_object() on null

is this the entire error, or is there more?
when does this occur eg on every website page, on bbpress pages, on particular pages ?

It is so long ago since I used it. I am not sure which theme you are using – it really depends on that. I was using the old Responsive theme and @robkk advised me to use a different code for the bbpress.php file. I am coying what I found in my files for you here, but I really don’t know if this is the correct one. Unfortunately, @robkk is not active any more – he was truly wonderful.

Recently my MYSQL CPU usage went from 40% to over 100% and my server has been slowing down as a result. In doing some research I’ve learned to setup some mysql logging for slow queries. I have a particular query that happens often. In the query below it appears that over 700,000 rows are queried in the DB taking up almost 3 seconds. Imagine that times however many users and it is bogging the site down. Is this query below from bbpress or how can I tell? It’s hard to trace where it is being called:

# Time: 211220 17:42:06
# User@Host: mysite_wp[mysite_wp] @ localhost []

# Rows_affected: 0  Bytes_sent: 188
SET timestamp=1640047326;
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS  wp_posts.ID FROM wp_posts  INNER JOIN wp_postmeta ON ( wp_posts.ID = wp_postmeta.post_id )  INNER JOIN wp_postmeta AS mt1 ON ( wp_posts.ID = mt1.post_id ) WHERE 1=1  AND (
  wp_postmeta.meta_key = '_bbp_last_active_time'
  AND
  (
    ( mt1.meta_key = '_bbp_forum_id' AND CAST(mt1.meta_value AS SIGNED) != '1773' )
  )
) AND wp_posts.post_type = 'topic' AND (wp_posts.post_status = 'publish' OR wp_posts.post_status = 'closed') GROUP BY wp_posts.ID ORDER BY wp_posts.post_date DESC LIMIT 0, 10;

This is a bug in bbpress – yet to be fixed.

In the meantime install

bbp style pack

which should fix

or

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

Hi robin,
in my situation for the default language
http://domain.com/forums/topic/admin-gui/edit/
work with flag “Hide URL language information for default language”,

but for the others language the rewrite rule is triggered for edit, and add /it/, and 404 is raised.

Bye Renzo

[Robin W]

ok, to save me searching where is ‘I can see where this is being generated in the bbpress plugin PHP code’

[Robin W]

so typing for instance

http://domain.com/forums/topic/admin-gui/edit/

in the url does not work either?

[alastair123]

Hi Guys,
I’ve taken it upon myself to try and create my own customised forum – I’ve got it mostly working how I’d like, but I’ve hit a brick wall in trying to easily customise how the pagination should look for the lists of topics and also replies.

I can see where this is being generated in the bbpress plugin PHP code, but ideally I would leave that alone as my changes could disappear on a plugin upgrade.

I tried following a useful tutorial I found on WPUP, but it didn’t generate any pagination at all – perhaps I am on a different plugin version or something.

Any advice on how to go about this would be really appreciated!

[Robin W]

so I’m presuming that

http://domain.com/forums/topic/admin-gui/edit/

would work ie it is the ‘/fr’ that is the problem ?

[m1ngum0u]

@robin-w could you check your engagements.php on your test forum?
(/yoursite/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/engagements.php)

i’ve got
public function get_users_for_object( $object_id = 0, $meta_key = '', $meta_type = 'post' )

i think $meta_key value shouldn’t be empty…

[m1ngum0u]

I’m using WP in my native language.
In forum parameters I’m changing visibility option to third (make forum hidden).
just trying to translate it to en correctly

first is 'make global'
second is make private
third is make hidden

[m1ngum0u]

Hi! I’ve got that:

Error thrown
Call to a member function get_users_for_object() on null

When i turning visibility option to “Hide” it happens.
And I cannot access any topics and forums.I can only access profile page of bbPress

Found this method in engagements.php(/includes/common)(/includes/users), capabilities.php (/includes/users)

any suggestions to solve it?
using bbPress 2.6.9 and WordPress 5.2.13 with Pointfinder theme.

[AdventureRidingNZ]

Thanks Robin.

After your comment on my other issue I pasted this code into the custom css part of my child theme and it worked when placed in there.
So I went back to my child theme and found a typo in an earlier entry which meant nothing after that was being picked up. Once that was fixed and the document version updated it picked up both these changes.

The child theme css is /themes/newsphere-child-theme/style.css?ver=1.0.2
and I’ve put “my child theme css ATTN Robin W” in it to make it findable.

So my forum-Author column is now wider as I had wanted thank you, but the forum-content area has not reduced correspondingly meaning the author section overlaps the content section and I can’t see a specific width designation for the forum-content area to update.

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-content, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-content {
    margin-left: 130px;
    padding: 12px 12px 12px 0;
    text-align: left;
    position: relative;
}

[Robin W]

the code is correct, but you have lots of style sheets, and I cannot see it in any.

I’m presuming it is called ‘style.css’ and if it hasn’t, perhaps you can add

/*
my child theme css
*/

or any distinctive text to the top of the style sheet, so I can see which one it is in the browser.

[Robin W]

try this is the custom css part of your theme

#bbpress-forums div.wp-editor-container {
     line-height: inherit !important;
}

[AdventureRidingNZ]

The Author section seems to have a width of 115px and I’d like to widen that. I’ve tried using the below code which I pulled from a the inspect bar in Chrome and pasted into my child themes styles.css but it doesn’t work.

Can anybody help?

On pages where I use the bbp-single-forum shortcode I am having an issue with the ‘Create new Topic’ text box displaying.

The topic Title field displays and can be populated fine but the main content textbox appears as a slim expandable box only a few pixels high. If you expand it no text can be entered into the box.

Also on the pages where the bbp-single-forum shortcode is being used the Home and Update icons do not display correctly, instead presenting a broken image type icon. Removing the bbp-single-forum shortcode makes the admin bar icons display correctly.

An example of a page with this issue is https://www.adventureridingnz.co.nz/motorcycles/bmw/

[Robin W]

I am not certain, but on save a function is run that includes the wordpress function ‘sanitize_text_field’ which may well be stripping the @

what the code does is to try and find out the user_id of the name entered, and then passes this to

bbp_add_moderator( $forum_id, $user_id );

If I am guessing that this is not something you need to do too often, you could do it programatically if you know how?

in essence there are 2 functions

bbp_add_moderator( $forum_id, $user_id );
bbp_remove_moderator( $forum_id, $user_id );

Looks like something replaces 'function bbp_get_reply_author_link' bbpress/includes/replies/template.php

ok, I am seeing this when logged in or logged out with style pack active

not sure which you are saying is different as your original post says ‘when user logged in’ in both cases??

[Robin W]

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/feedback-no-access.php

transfer this to your pc and edit the text as desired

and save

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/feedback-no-access.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

untested, but of you add

<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'user-login' ); ?>

to the end of that form, it should also show a login
