Hi, Robin thank you for your reply,

is there a way to add in a background refresher then? Maybe the form of an external plugin etc? Or some code that will automatically refresh the page without the user knowing?

If not then don’t worry but if there is a way, (and it’s not free work) I am happy to pay!

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

[kaanair]

I would like change avatar style for media….480px responsive design which I attached screenshots.I use custom theme on my local server.I tried some of code in stylesheet but didn’t worked.
Default code about avatar and author section

#bbpress-forums li.bbp-body div.hentry {
    display: block;
  }
  #bbpress-forums li.bbp-body div.bbp-topic-author,
  #bbpress-forums li.bbp-body div.bbp-reply-author {
    -ms-flex-align: start;
        align-items: flex-start;
    width: 100%;
    margin: 0 0 16px;
    padding: 0 0 16px;
    border-bottom: 1px solid var(--color-divider);
    box-sizing: border-box;
  }
  .vikinger-forum-reply-author {
    -ms-flex-align: start;
        align-items: flex-start;
        
  }
}

ok, this raises a number of questions, but let’s start with

You talk about a sidebar, but I cannot see this in the code sent to the screen. How are you adding the sidebar to your forums page?

I’d suggest that instead of rendering a register form on the sidebar, you have the login widget which has a register link on it, which you can direct to a register page with the register shortcode on it.

[Robin W]

hmmm…

Titles are not put in that part as default – bbpress uses the theme/page to do that, so I would not expect to see an <h2> tag after the <div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">

do you have a theme or plugin that is altering bbpress display?

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

I wish I could but the way that bbPress has implemented the CSS there is no middle.

Please review the screenshots I took

Index page with forum title
https://monosnap.com/file/tKb4Y6GEkWf2GUMB88ghljeprh37Nt

Topic page with topic question
https://monosnap.com/file/M3hhJhX7wW4on9Ym2s4ecMcFqmjHOj

This is the code that bbPress outputs for both the index page and topic page title

<div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">
<h2>main forum topipc</h2>

If I get rid of one I get rid of the other one 🙁

Still searching for a solution.

[neon67]

write the css selector #bbpress-forums ???? h2 more precisely – there will be a difference

[neon67]

in the menu (after installing bbpress) Nothing will appear – you must create and customize the menu yourself.
Or use bbpress shortcodes for home page.

[Robin W]

untested but this should do it

add_filter ('bbp_current_user_can_publish_topics' , 'rew_disallow_anon') ;

function rew_disallow_anon ($retval) {
	if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) $retval=false ;
return $retval ;
}

[neon67]

How to allow unauthorized users to post replies in threads only, but disallow new topics?
There is a check-box in the forums tab – “Allow unauthorized users to create replies in topics.”
But when I turn on, anonymous can create both: replies and new topics also ((

How to split this permission? maybe code in functions.php…

Thanks 🙏

[Robin W]

if it didn’t work in style pack there are 3 reasons

code error so does not work
wrong element targeted
something else is overwriting

1st looks ok
second could be the issue

so let’s try 3rd to check, so add this

#bbpress-forums #bbp-user-wrapper h2.entry-title {display: none !important;}

[neon67]

Hola!
Someone knows the full code for bbpress – remove the site field in anonymous form?

I’ve tried something like this (for the whole WP) but it doesn’t work

 function remove_url_from_comments($fields) {
    unset($fields['url']);
    return $fields;
}
add_filter('comment_form_default_fields', 'remove_url_from_comments');

Thank!

[tw2021]

HI
I got a code that i would like to hide thee username. For e.g when someone click on the profile member from the post in forum, it will bring to the profile page

#bbpress-forums #bbp-user-wrapper h2.entry-title {display: none;}

I have got the bbstyle pack and i entered the code above in the css customization but its not working. Is there a place I can insert the code above?
thanks

[Robin W]

ok, put this is in the custom css part of the bbp style pack plugin

blockquote {
	font-size: 12px !important;
}

[Robin W]

just put this in your theme’s custom css area

blockquote {
	font-size: 12px;
}

and change the size to whatever you want

[Jens]

Is there a plugin (or another way) to find out about the subscriptons in bbPress? The shortcode [bbp-stats] doesn´t help and statistic plugins seem to be closed. Any idea where to look in the database?

[Robin W]

hmm, can’t say why it isn’t working – it is code that I put together from a number of sources.

If I can find time, I’ll look through the code, but no promises

[Robin W]

either

bbPress WP Tweaks

or

How to Add WordPress Conditional Content to Sidebar Widgets

and use the logic

is_bbpress()

[frenchlemans]

Thanks Robin,

I just added the “title” line because it came out with an error.
Otherwise it works very well.

$title = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_title( $topic_id );
I think this function can be useful to other people.

Have a good day.

[thodoris7]

Hi,
The code with 404 error is this <a href="<?php bbp_user_topics_created_url($tessera_user_ID); ?>"><?php esc_html_e( 'Topics Started', 'tessera' ); ?></a>
The only function that works is <a href="<?php bbp_user_profile_url($tessera_user_ID); ?>"><?php esc_html_e( 'Profile', 'tessera' ); ?></a>

Do i have create any pages for the topics as for the forum;

[vincenzon617]

Hi there,

Is it possible to use the forum title rather than the forum id when using shortcode to display the forum? In my website I am using a plugin which has virtual pages and I would like the user to search for the title of the forum they want and then it to be displayed – by means of shortcode.

Just in case, I would like to add that duplicate naming of the fourms would not be an issue in my website (it is not possible for the user to create a fourm with the same name).

Also, is there a way in which I am able to query the forum index? If so, am I able to check if a forum with this name (used in the query) already exists? If it doesn’t I would like the user to be able to start it, is this also possible?

WordPress version 5.6.2
bbPress version 2.6.6

Thanks in advance!

[Robin W]

hmmm…

try using

Code Snippets

The code works fine in my functions file

[Robin W]

so can you give us the code surrounding this use please

[Robin W]

might have been too complicated, maybe just try

add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_freshness_author', 'rew_freshness_display_reply');

function rew_freshness_display_reply ($topic_id = 0) {
		$topic_id   = bbp_get_topic_id( $topic_id );
		$link_url   = bbp_get_topic_last_reply_url( $topic_id );
		
		$anchor = '<a class="rew_freshness_display_image" href="' . esc_url( $link_url ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( $title ) . '"><img class="plato" style="width: 29px; height: 20px;" src="https://webershoot.com/mesimages/transplato.png">' . '</a>';
	
echo '<p class="platopost">'.$anchor.'</p>';
}

[hamza21]

It shows nonce_failure error when I add the above code in my theme function.php file.
