I am a beginner in wordpress and bbPress so less familiar with PHP code.

If it’s possible, send here the required code to paste in the “WPCode plugin” to generate the direct link to user’s profile in bbPress.

Of course, I’m using your plugin but the shortcut [bsp-profile label=”Edit My Profile” edit=”true”] works in the site’s footer but doesn’t work in the forum footer.

[Robin W]

I understand what you want to do, it requires code which is in my plugin.

If you don’t want to use my plugin, the code is in the shortcodes.php file in the plugin, feel free to use it.

[Robin W]

Install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes

and look at ‘Display profile link’ for how to use the shortcode.

Then simply add the shortcode using a ‘shortcode’ block wherever you want it

[Robin W]

add_filter( 'gettext', 'rew_translations', 20 , 3 );

function rew_translations( $translated, $text, $domain ) {
	if ($domain != 'bbpress' return $translated;
	if ( $translated == 'This forum is empty.' ) {
		$translated = 'new text';
	}
	return $translated;
}

[gkldh]

hello how can i add link on text ??

if ( $translated_text == 'This forum is empty.' ) {
	$translated_text = 'new text';
}

[gkldh]

[Robin W]

anything is possible with code, but I know of no current plugin that does this.

The parser php file says the code is from

I would hesitate to correct it, but you could alter lines around 1289 to have a fix as in above link.

But I’d suggest you go to a version of php before 7.4 to do the import, and then after import go back to a supported php version

[Stephen B]

Yes, I’ve tried the other shortcodes as well and the same issue happens with all of them

[Robin W]

ok, thanks.

I cannot see why it would do this, unless it thinks it is a bbpress page and should add the sidebar.

Is it doing this for any bbpress shortcode – maybe as a test try some others and then come back

[Robin W]

so which of the methods in this link item 3 are you using?

Hi there,

Was there ever a fix found for this as I still have the depreciation warnings. I have tried both these plugins and neither work.

Deprecated: Creation of dynamic property BBP_Forums_Component::$members is deprecated in /website/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/loader.php on line 149

Deprecated: Creation of dynamic property BBP_Forums_Component::$activity is deprecated in /website/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/loader.php on line 153

Thank you in advance

[Stephen B]

You can see an example page now here:
http://bit.ly/4eG3RLY
The shortcode also uses the page title (where the shortcode is pasted) instead of the topic title.
Is it because of incompatibility with the theme?

[Stephen B]

Thanks for replying and yes, I am using the topic ID and it’s showing the correct topic.
The issue is that the shortcode is displaying the forum sidebar in addition to the topic.
You can see here a screenshot of the source code https://ibb.co/2PS9qW1

[Robin W]

ok, not totally sure I understand.

so you are putting the actual topic_id in ?

eg

[bbp-single-topic id=265]

and not sure I understand what ‘it pulls the bbpress forum sidebar widget ‘ means – do you have a link to a live example?

[Stephen B]

I want to show a single topic on my homepage, on top of the page.
When I use the shortcode [bbp-single-topic id=$topic_id] it pulls the bbpress forum sidebar widget as well. I am not sure if it’s incompatibility with the theme or normal behavior.

Is there PHP code I could use instead to pull a single topic? Maybe I could then use that to create a custom template for the homepage.

Thanks in advance

[Robin W]

ok, so that error tells you it is a problem with the plugin gd-topic-polls

'call to undefined method xxxx in ...public_html/wp-content/plugins/gd-topic-polls'

That plugin is not written by bbpress and

GD Topic Polls: plugin for WordPress and bbPress Forums

says that the free version it is no longer being maintained.

There is a paid version at

https://www.dev4press.com/plugins/gd-topic-polls/

and if you have bought that version, then you need to raise a support ticket with them.

If you have the free version, then if you want to continue to use this plugin, you would need to buy the paid version

Hi there,

Test site latest updates and twenty four theme.

As explain in title I can’t display forum with 2024 and other blocks themes.

It’s ok to display forum list with shortcode but not forums.

Thanks four your help.

[shaynald]

Hi Robin, thank you for replying quickly. Is there a shortcode (or even a php snippet) for adding a forum’s subscribe button to a template?

[bobjgarrett]

I am struggling with Search for my forum. The standard WP Search within my site works and includes results from the bbpress forums but only shows individual posts. I’d rather show links to the Topic, or at least have a link in the posts found to the topic.
So I tried to implement Search within the forum.
I tried using shortcode [bbp-search] but this changes nothing on the page. I tried the shortcode [bbp-search-form] on the page and got a search box but no matter what text I enter in there I only ever get the same single result which is the latest overall WP post, not a bbpress post.
I have set “Allow forum wide search” in settings.
What am I doing wrong?

[Robin W]

ok, so which method atre you using in

https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum/ item 3

if method 1, then try using method 2

[alembiq]

We had a PHPBB many years ago, which we migrated to bbPress around four years ago, but it seems some flags remained in the database for the whole time, flags like (_bbp_class, _bbp_old_user_id, _bbp_password, _bbp_phpbb_user_avatar, _bbp_phpbb_user_sig). They might be needed; I have no idea.

But after the last update of WP and all the plugins, all the migrated users started to get an error message instead of being able to log in:
`
{“success”:false,”data”:[{“code”:”bbp_converter_db_connection_failed”,”message”:”Database connection failed”}]}
`
After some debugging and searching, I found https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3419#no0 and tried to remove _bbp_class, which helped 🙂

I just needed to wipe the SQLite Object Cache because it kept the old data. It might happen to someone else in the future, I don’t know. I don’t know if you can somehow influence that this metadata is not stored there or something else. But at least you have the information that it might happen.

[kimis]

sorry I did
add_action('bbp_new_forum_form', 'add_formation_field_to_forum_form');

[kimis]

Well it still doesn’t work, what if instead of that, I add a select on the form to create a forum, I create it also in the admin panel. how can I do that because I did

add_action('bbp_new_forum_form_after_content', 'add_formation_field_to_forum_form');
function add_formation_field_to_forum_form() {
    $formations = get_terms(array(
        'taxonomy'   => 'formation',
        'hide_empty' => false,
    ));
    
    if (!empty($formations) && !is_wp_error($formations)) {
        echo '<div class="bbp-form">
                <label for="forum-formation">Sélectionner une formation :</label>
                <select name="forum_formation" id="forum-formation">';
        
        foreach ($formations as $formation) {
            echo '<option value="' . esc_attr($formation->term_id) . '">' . esc_html($formation->name) . '</option>';
        }
        
        echo '</select>
              </div>';
    }
}

I want to link the forum to the taxonomy formation I think it should be more easier but in that way it doesn’t work I have linked formation to forum by doing

function link_formation_taxonomy_to_forums() {
    register_taxonomy_for_object_type('formation', 'forum');
}
add_action('init', 'link_formation_taxonomy_to_forums');

[Robin W]

ok so from the admin area I think you need to hook to

do_action( 'bbp_forum_attributes_metabox_save', $forum_id );
