Hi there

It’s the end of Sept 2021 and I’ve been trying to sort out an old PHPBB conversion to BBPress.
WP: 5.8.1 and BBPress 2.6.6

I can confirm I’ve done this seemingly successfully. It took a few tries but with this thread I’ve got it working.

I just wanted to share what worked in 2021.

1. I exported my old PHPBB database (.sql file) and then set up a new database on my current host and imported the PHPBB to it.
This just simplified any server timeouts and other connection issues.

2. I obviously had BBpress installed within WP, but the included PHPBB converter doesn’t work (why??) so copied two files from this thread.

a. Firstly, I had the ‘annonymous user’ loop mentioned above so copied @davidmanch great code (a couple of comments above) into:
/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/classes/class-bbp-converter.php
This fixed the never ending loop but the built in converter didn’t import any users, so …

b. I copied @a8bit excellent code (3 posts above this one) into:
/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/converters/phpbb.php
This added many more steps to the import which completed without errors. I’m thinking this code might also have fixed the annonymous user loop too but didn’t try it on it’s own?? I’d already change the code in a. above. If you do this, maybe just try this code only and see if it works.

So, if you find this now, it does work (for me at least) so hopefully you don’t have to hunt around for solutions.

The BBPress guys need to look at these two pieces of code and see why their packaged converter doesn’t work. It’s very frustrating and shouldn’t be left to users much smarter than me to fix … but I’m glad they did.

Cheers

I have tried looking through this forum to find what I need, and I just can’t seem to do so.

I am by no means a coder, but I said I would help a friend put together a forum, and I would like everyone who clicks on the “forum” access button at the top of the page to be forced to log in if they are not already logged in. I would then like them to see the main forum page, not the dashboard unless they have higher clearance than participants.

How does one do that? I saw someone post about the Private groups plugin… but will it do what I want it to do?

[severbronny]

I’m a newbie with code and web implementation, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. My readers have reported the following: “I’ve been trying to be able to post on your forum. I have a wordpress account, which I use to try to log in. After that it takes me to a jetpack and wordpress site, which Makes me put in my info again. But when I do, it then it takes me back to the original jetpack/wordpress page.”

Here is the forum:

Forum *new*

And yet they can make comments on my site with ease:

Discussion

I installed bbPress using this slug: [bbp-forum-index]

What am I missing? Thanks ahead!

[outkax]

Thanks for your answer I have corrected my code with yours 🙂

[Robin W]

your triple === means that is has to match type (eg string or integer) as well as value, hence why

if(bbp_forum_id() === '513')

didn’t work, as the forum id is an integer and by havng quotes round the number you are asking it to be a string

in your solution

<?php if(bbp_get_forum_id() === $forum_id = 513): ?>

would be better as

<?php if(bbp_get_forum_id() === 513): ?>

or better still

<?php if(bbp_get_forum_id() == 513): ?>

as unless you are using the $forum_id variable elsewhere (when it probbaly needs to be declared as a global) then the $forum_id = is redundant

but glad you fixed it

[outkax]

I think I found the solution 🙂 :

<?php

/**
 * Single Forum Content Part
 *
 * @package bbPress
 * @subpackage Theme
 */

// Exit if accessed directly
defined( 'ABSPATH' ) || exit;

?>

<div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">

	<?php bbp_breadcrumb(); ?>

	<?php //bbp_forum_subscription_link(); ?>

	<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_before_single_forum' ); ?>

	<?php if ( post_password_required() ) : ?>

		<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'protected' ); ?>

	<?php else : ?>

		<?php //bbp_single_forum_description(); ?>

		<?php if ( bbp_has_forums() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'forums' ); ?>

		<?php endif; ?>

		<?php if ( ! bbp_is_forum_category() && bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop',       'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form',       'topic'     ); ?>

		<?php elseif ( ! bbp_is_forum_category() ) : ?>
			<?php if(bbp_get_forum_id() === $forum_id = 513): ?>

				<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'rules' ); ?>

			<?php else :  ?>
				<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'feedback',   'no-topics' ); ?>

				<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form',       'topic'     ); ?>
			<?php ?>
			<?php endif; ?>
		<?php endif; ?>

	<?php endif; ?>

	<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_after_single_forum' ); ?>

</div>

[Robin W]

sorry, untested code, go with

if ($forum_id == ‘12345’) {

[outkax]

I tried another method but no way bbp_forum_id only displays the forum id.I tried with I tried with “bbp_get_forum_id” that doesn’t work either.

<div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">

	<?php bbp_breadcrumb(); ?>

	<?php //bbp_forum_subscription_link(); ?>

	<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_before_single_forum' ); ?>

	<?php if ( post_password_required() ) : ?>

		<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'protected' ); ?>

	<?php else : ?>

		<?php //bbp_single_forum_description(); ?>

		<?php if ( bbp_has_forums() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'forums' ); ?>

		<?php endif; ?>

		<?php if ( ! bbp_is_forum_category() && bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop',       'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form',       'topic'     ); ?>

		<?php elseif ( ! bbp_is_forum_category() ) : ?>
			<?php if(bbp_forum_id() === '513'): ?>
			<?php echo 'yes'; ?>
			<?php else :  ?>
				<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'feedback',   'no-topics' ); ?>

				<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form',       'topic'     ); ?>
			<?php ?>
			<?php endif; ?>
		<?php endif; ?>

	<?php endif; ?>

	<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_after_single_forum' ); ?>

</div>

[outkax]

I tested with your code Robin, it does not work. The if is missing parentheses. But even with that doesn’t work. It displays all the forums with the content of the if and does not take into account the id I give it.

[bobdobbs]

I have a solution.

It relies on a couple of assumptions: one being that the structure of URL’s is like this:
‘http://mysite.com/forums/…’

Assumption 2: all users with an account on the website are allowed to access the forum.

This function does the following:
If the user requests a resource under ‘/forums/’ then we test to see if the user has a wordpress account and is logged in. If the user isn’t logged into the wordpress account, then they get denied.

In production I’ve replaced ‘wp_die’ with a wp_redirect to another page.

/**
* If a user is not a forum member, and requests the forum index page then redirect them
*/

add_action('init', 'as_protect_forums');

function  as_protect_forums() {

    // get the path of the requested URI
    $current_url = home_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);

    $path = parse_url($current_url, PHP_URL_PATH) ;

    $parts = explode('/', $path) ;

    $first_part = $parts[1] ;

    if (  $first_part === 'forums' ) {
        if ( 0 === get_current_user_id() ) {
            wp_die('nope');
        }
    }

}

Hi @outkax 👋

The functionality you’re looking for does not currently exist.

The bbp_get_template_part filter exists to hook into this API and extend the template parts to attempt to locate, so it would be achievable with some custom code.

[Robin W]

have you been to

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

and looked at item 3?

[drivinghome]

WP 5.8.1 bbPress 2.6.6

Can the bbPress Forum 2.6.6 version be used with Elementor and or does it have a shortcode so that we can embed the forum onto an existing page.

Thanks

Greg

[Robin W]

I am very unclear as to what you are trying to achieve.

if you want one forum say forum id 12345 to display differently, then just amend content-single-forum to

<?php
$forum_id = bbp_forum_id() ; 
if $forum_id = '12345' {
?>

<div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">

	<?php bbp_breadcrumb(); ?>

	<?php bbp_forum_subscription_link(); ?>

	<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_before_single_forum' ); ?>

	<?php if ( post_password_required() ) : ?>

		<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'protected' ); ?>

	<?php else : ?>

		<?php bbp_single_forum_description(); ?>

		<?php if ( bbp_has_forums() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'forums' ); ?>

		<?php endif; ?>

		<?php if ( ! bbp_is_forum_category() && bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop',       'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form',       'topic'     ); ?>

		<?php elseif ( ! bbp_is_forum_category() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'feedback',   'no-topics' ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form',       'topic'     ); ?>

		<?php endif; ?>

	<?php endif; ?>

	<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_after_single_forum' ); ?>

</div>
<?php
}
else {
?>
<div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">

	<?php bbp_breadcrumb(); ?>

	<?php bbp_forum_subscription_link(); ?>

	<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_before_single_forum' ); ?>

	<?php if ( post_password_required() ) : ?>

		<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'protected' ); ?>

	<?php else : ?>

		<?php bbp_single_forum_description(); ?>

		<?php if ( bbp_has_forums() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'forums' ); ?>

		<?php endif; ?>

		<?php if ( ! bbp_is_forum_category() && bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop',       'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'topics'    ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form',       'topic'     ); ?>

		<?php elseif ( ! bbp_is_forum_category() ) : ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'feedback',   'no-topics' ); ?>

			<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form',       'topic'     ); ?>

		<?php endif; ?>

	<?php endif; ?>

	<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_after_single_forum' ); ?>

</div>
<?php } ?>

and change whichever display you want

[Robin W]

you could try method 2 in this

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

it might work, it might not 🙂

[Ludovic S. Clain]

Hi there 👋
I followed this step by step guide
👉 https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum/#3-%c2%a0creating-a-forum-page

And I’m annoyed with one quirk that I can’t seem to resolve: My borders aren’t showing!
With method # 1 my borders disappear and with method # 2 everything is normal.
How can I fix this please?

My regards,
Ludovic

Hi,

I just did something similar for Rank Math SEO plugin:

/**
 * Sets bbPress user profile pages to noindex
 *
 * @param array $robots The meta robots directives.
 */
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
    
    if (!bbp_is_single_user_profile()) {
        return $robots;
        }
    unset( $robots['index']);
    $robots['noindex'] = 'noindex';
    return $robots;
});

Cheers

[jappan]

add_filter('bp_email_use_wp_mail', function () {
    return true;
});

you should add this code in function.php

[Robin W]

ok, the line

echo esc_html__( 'You must be logged in to create new topics.', 'bbpress' ) . ' <a href="' . esc_url( thim_get_login_page_url() ) . '">' . esc_html__( 'Login here', 'bbpress' ) . '</a>';

is doing the Login Here

This line chooses the location from a setting in your theme thim_get_login_page_url()

so I suspect it is as simple as changing that setting to the page you want it to say, so look at your theme settings

If that doesn’t work, come back

ok, delete ALL of the contents of form-user-login.php and instead put

<a href="https://mydomain.com/login/">Login here</a>

and that’s what will show 🙂

[cosmiclove1978]

Hi Robin!
Thanks for your quick reply and assistance. But there’s only one major challenge (at least to me) I am currently facing, which I’ll describe below:

Re: — “Then amend this file to take out the current form and put in a link”

I get the “what” to-do part (i.e. amending file…, creating a folder in my child theme, etc) but as for the “how?”, I have absolutely no idea. In all humility, I make no pretense of familiarity with php syntax or anything php code-related.

I see the <form>….</form> tags in my file below, should I remove it all and place https://mydomain.com/login?

<?php

/**
 * User Login Form
 *
 * @package bbPress
 * @subpackage Theme
 */

// Exit if accessed directly
defined( 'ABSPATH' ) || exit;

?>

<form method="post" action="<?php bbp_wp_login_action( array( 'context' => 'login_post' ) ); ?>" class="bbp-login-form">
	<fieldset class="bbp-form">
		<legend><?php esc_html_e( 'Log In', 'bbpress' ); ?></legend>

		<div class="bbp-username">
			<label for="user_login"><?php esc_html_e( 'Username', 'bbpress' ); ?>: </label>
			<input type="text" name="log" value="<?php bbp_sanitize_val( 'user_login', 'text' ); ?>" size="20" maxlength="100" id="user_login" autocomplete="off" />
		</div>

		<div class="bbp-password">
			<label for="user_pass"><?php esc_html_e( 'Password', 'bbpress' ); ?>: </label>
			<input type="password" name="pwd" value="<?php bbp_sanitize_val( 'user_pass', 'password' ); ?>" size="20" id="user_pass" autocomplete="off" />
		</div>

		<div class="bbp-remember-me">
			<input type="checkbox" name="rememberme" value="forever" <?php checked( bbp_get_sanitize_val( 'rememberme', 'checkbox' ) ); ?> id="rememberme" />
			<label for="rememberme"><?php esc_html_e( 'Keep me signed in', 'bbpress' ); ?></label>
		</div>

		<?php do_action( 'login_form' ); ?>

		<div class="bbp-submit-wrapper">

			<button type="submit" name="user-submit" id="user-submit" class="button submit user-submit"><?php esc_html_e( 'Log In', 'bbpress' ); ?></button>

			<?php bbp_user_login_fields(); ?>

		</div>
	</fieldset>
</form>

My question is and where do I amend this form-user-login.php file with my login url https://mydomain.com/login/?

If given a blueprint, I can certainly reproduce the steps faithfully when dealing with a similar issue

Can you (or anyone willing) please pinpoint the parts/lines to modify with the url? Thanks so much in advance.

Found solutions in an other forum, just to add in the functions.php:

add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title', function ($title) {
if ( is_category() ) {
    $title = single_cat_title( '', false );
} elseif ( is_tag() ) {
    $title = single_tag_title( '', false );
} elseif ( is_author() ) {
    $title = '<span class="vcard">' . get_the_author() . '</span>' ;
} elseif ( is_tax() ) { //for custom post types
    $title = sprintf( __( '%1$s' ), single_term_title( '', false ) );
} elseif (is_post_type_archive()) {
    $title = post_type_archive_title( '', false );
}
return $title;
});

add_filter( 'bbp_get_form_reply_content', function( string $reply_content ) {
    if ( isset( $_GET['bbp_reply_to'] ) && (int) $_GET['bbp_reply_to'] ) {
        $display_name = get_the_author_meta( 'display_name', get_post_field( 'post_author', (int) $_GET['bbp_reply_to'] ) );
        return '@' . $display_name . PHP_EOL . $reply_content;
    }
	return $reply_content;
});

You should add this code in “functions.php”.

Hello Regnalf,

I’m happy to report that your fix worked. I had to apply the new class to all the previous CSS code, but it did the trick!!!

This is truly got the time to appreciate firsthand php notions such hook and filters, etc and see them at work. It was neat to be able to fine-tune the bbpress-index class vs bbpress and target one vs all parts of the site. I’m grateful.

Pushing my luck a bit further and modeling your code above and another post I saw elsewhere, I was hoping to get a bit more granular in the way I applied my css to parts of the forum, so I tried this bit of code below to target individual topic pages (or replies?)
but it didn’t work. If it’s not too much to ask, whenever it’s convenient for you or anyone, could you tell me if this code below somewhat does what you just provided me.

function my_topic_class($classes) {
	$classes[] = 'herman-topic-class';
	return $classes;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_class','my_topic_class' );

Nowhere, when viewing the topic page or thread did I see the new class ‘herman-topic-class’ in the Inspect Element utility. With your code, the bbpress and bbpress-index appeared.
thanks in advance for all the support.
