ok, without knowing what is determining the order, it is hard to give you code to correct.

I’d suggest you play with publish dates of the stickies and ant replies to them to see if you can work out the issue, then come back and I’ll see if I can help further

[Robin W]

line 322 of \includes\topics\template.php has the function I think

you’d use a filter to add an ‘order by’ probably using the parse args on line 330

so

add_filter ('bbp_before_add_sticky_topics_parse_args' , 'your_function') ;

function your_function ($r) {
//add the order you want to sort
$r['order_by'] = etc......

}

Sorry don’t have time to look at this evening, but come back if you need further help

[rngeer]

Nada, just going to explain the nature of it to them and dig around later for a code hack if there is one. Thank you so much for the help.

Hello, this is a request I have to force the order of two sticky posts so that they don’t change when a new comment is added.

Sticky 1
Sticky 2

Sticky 2 will move above Sticky one with a new comment, and vice-versa.

Any way in the code to force that sticky order to stay the same all the time.

Thanks in advance.

[Robin W]

untested, but this should work

add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_author_display_name' , 'rew_reply_change_to_first_name', 10 , 2 ) ;

function rew_reply_change_to_first_name ($author_name, $reply_id) {
	// Get the author ID
	$author_id = bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id );
	$user = get_userdata($author_id); 
	$first_name = $user->user_firstname;
return $first_name ;
}

add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_author_display_name' , 'rew_topic_change_to_first_name', 10 , 2 ) ;

function rew_topic_change_to_first_name ($author_name, $topic_id) {
	// Get the author ID
	$author_id = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id );
	$user = get_userdata($author_id); 
	$first_name = $user->user_firstname;
return $first_name ;
}

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

It seems to be a real struggle to create a new custom role for bbpress 🙁
I’ve been trying out all the different solutions I’ve found online but nothing is working.
All I want to do is to be able to assign the role of Naturopath to some of my forum participants. They would have the same capabilities as the Participant role, just have Naturopath instead of Participant showing under their name in the Forum. The rest of the Participants can continue to show “Participant”.
Can anyone here maybe write the code for me as a paid job?
I have WP 5.8.1
bPress 2.6.6

[angelfire4xx]

Great tip about code snippets plugin, I didn’t know about that one, thanks!

Sadly the user is still showing up in bbpress as Participant. Although I was able to save the user with a Naturopath role in WP.

ok, I think it was just loading in the wrong place, try

add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_new_roles', 1 );
add_filter( 'bbp_get_caps_for_role', 'add_role_caps_filter', 10, 2 );

function add_new_roles( $bbp_roles )
{
/* Add a role called naturopath */
$bbp_roles['bbp_naturopath'] = array(
'name' =>'Naturopath',
'capabilities' =>custom_capabilities( 'bbp_naturopath' )
);

return $bbp_roles;
}

function add_role_caps_filter( $caps, $role )
{
/* Only filter for roles we are interested in! */
if( $role == 'bbp_naturopath' )
$caps = custom_capabilities( $role );

return $caps;
}

function custom_capabilities( $role )
{
switch ( $role )
{

/* Capabilities for 'naturopath' role */
case 'bbp_naturopath':
return array(

Thanks Robin, I did search and replace tutor > Naturopath and pasted the code at the end of functions.php. I would love to say it worked but…

Naturopath appeared as a forum role selection in the dropdown for each WP User. However when Naturopath was selected for the user and then saved, WP only displayed Role = “No role for this user”, and Capabilities = bbp_Naturopath.

When I tried a test post as that user, BBPress described me as a participant.
So, not there yet, but your help is appreciated 🙂
Linda

(PS: I’m looking for the Naturopath role to have the same capabilities as Participant.)

@wendylady, also, if you install the “Advanced Editor Tools” plugin you can get your TinyMCE toolbar to show the menu bar. I just tried it. This menu bar has the “Restore last draft” on it.

But I have not added any code to include the “restoredraft” button on the toolbar itself.

But as previously mentioned, the autosave is defaulting to 30 seconds.

[Chuckie]

Hi @wendylady

Thanks for trying the plugin! According to the TinyMCE documentation for autosave it simply states:

This plugin gives the user a warning if they made modifications to the content within an editor instance but didn’t submit the changes.

I notice there is an option autosave_interval:

This option enables you to specify the time the editor should wait between taking snapshots of the current content and saving them to local storage. The syntax is to append the letter s to the end of a number value. For example, “30s” for 30 seconds.

According to the documentation the default is 30 seconds. Since i do not specify this option in my plugin it must be using this default of 30 seconds.

If you don’t mind, could you also re-produce your query in the support forum for the plugin:

https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/add-autosave-fullscreen-to-tinymce/

?

And I can add the same response there.

Does this help?

[Robin W]

sorry, copied the wrong link

it should be

[bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id]

all the shortcodes are here

Shortcodes

[cryptobeya]

Thank you. I tried that, however it displays the “create new topic” form and not the forum list. Is that shortcode correct?

Coin Forums
Create New Topic in “Coin Forum”
Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML content.
Topic Title (Maximum Length: 80):

Topic Tags:

Topic Type:

[cryptobeya]

Thank you, that makes sense. When I add the short code to each page, you say $forum Id = the category. Where can I find the forum Id for the category? Is that just the name of the category?

The name of my category id Coin Forum. What should go in the $forum_id space below?

[bbp-topic-form forum_id=$forum_id]

[MrsJessicaSimpson]

add_filter( 'bbp_get_view_query_args', 'rew_limit') ;

function rew_limit ($args) {
$args['posts_per_page'] = -1 ;
$args['posts_per_page'] = 10 ;
return $args ;
}

Following this, and looking at it: then a bracket ‘]’ might be missing where the (= 10) line is.
Which could explain the unexpected T_FUNCTION error.

Got this code running on my site, (in the functions.php file), and it seems to work.

Happy-hacking.

No we only have bbPress and the bbp style pack, Gamipress – bbPress integration and a plug-in for paid memberships. I don’t think this will be changing it. But there is a column underneath the sentence “you may use these HTML tags and attributes” with:

[Robin W]

I need to know what you are using ie

can you just clarify what this is, a widget or shortcode, and which one

[Robin W]

‘Recently Active Topics’

can you just clarify what this is, a widget or shortcode, and which one

[aygunoz]

So how can I edit this code for [bbp-topic-index] shortcut and Implementation to my WordPress plugin? If you please, Can you explain more bc I didn’t understand exactly what to do :/ Sorry.
Thank you for helping

[Robin W]

amended in the original code to add the missing ;

[aygunoz]

Okay, I found the functions.php but I confuse about this code add_filter( 'bbp_get_view_query_args', 'rew_limit') Bc there are functions but there are not any code like this. So Shall I paste this there too? And after paste what’s gonna be shortcut ?
Thank You!
