Actually, it was not fixed.
Many other users have reported the same issue now.

What is weird that some users can log in normally, but for some it throws that same error page.

{"success":false,"data":[{"code":"bbp_converter_db_connection_failed","message":"Database connection failed."}]}

Hi there,

I’m looking for a general advice if I’m hading in the right direction how to allow users to categorise their topics and replies? I’m making progess but having trouble to display those topics in the term archives, display the terms in the forum posts, etc.

In building in custom taxonomies should I be building on top of the existing topic tags, making them hierarchical –

Or taking the approach of registering two new taxonomies –

• ‘region’ eg ‘Australia, New Zealand, Tasmania’
• ‘issue’ eg ‘homelessness, rough sleeping, couchsurfing

I’ve then added a term picker to the new topic form –

But I’m stuck getting topics/replies to display on the the term archives,
this doesn’t seem to work to eg to display topic on this archive
https://www.forum.backtofrontdesign.co/region/victoria/
am i using the correct post type slugs?

function add_post_types_to_archives( $query ) {
	// We do not want unintended consequences.
	if ( is_admin() || ! $query->is_main_query() ) {
		return;    
	}

        if ( is_category() && empty( $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] ) ) {

		// Add more slugs with the other CPTs.
		$post_types = array( 'topic');

		$query->set(
	  		'post_type',
			array_merge(
				array( 'post' ),
				$post_types
			)
		);
	}
}

I’ll keep persevering to display the terms on forum archives and single topics, but any advice or assistance from the community would be so much appreciated to get this campaign up and running.

I take it you have an add action statement

add_action( 'bbp_register_views' ....

I’m creating my own custom forum view using the register_views code. The function works but for some reason the url isn’t working. What am I missing?

       function my_custom_register_views() {
     // Latest Replies Custom View
    bbp_register_view(
        'latest-replies',
        __( 'Latest Replies', 'my_custom_register_views' ),
        apply_filters( 'bbp_register_view_latest_replies', array(
                'orderby' => 'meta_value',
                'order' => 'DESC',
                'meta_key' => '_bbp_last_active_time',
                'post_status' => array(bbp_get_public_status_id(), bbp_get_closed_status_id()),
                'post_type' => bbp_get_topic_post_type(),
                'show_stickies' => false
        )
    ) );
}

always learning – I’ve never considered that a plugin would stop caching to mobiles 🙂

Basically it is extra code to not cache mobiles – you have to find out what the http request is coming from and then stop the default cached request. you need to have a list of mobiles to work this out.

Normally you would only do this if your mobile site needed different output, rather than not be cached!

So seems that your plugin is really just a shop door to a paid product.

I’ve always used w3 total cache, but then it was the first one I picked many years ago, and it seems to work fine, so I just keep using it.

it does have the ability to turn off mobile caching, use a different theme, or redirect to a different site.

[Robin W]

that still doesn’t tell, me how you are doing the online bit.

so you must be using some code/stuff at that point to show this. so what widget or code are you using ?

[herdager]

Hello, I use a widget bbpress that allow the option to display “members online” but I can’t separate the normal members and the admin members

Can I use shortcodes or a custom html to insert that options on my homepage? using elementor builder?

[thinkercorner11]

I fixed it 🙂 . Sorry, there was no problem with your code, or the code from the developer of the theme, there was a problem with a other plugin. I use the WordFence Security plugin, which also saves the last login metadata, but in a I different place, so I have deleted the first part of the snippet (which is saving the last login metadata) and changed

$last_login = get_user_meta($user_id, ‘last_login’, true);

to

$last_login = get_user_meta( $user_id, ‘wfls-last-login’, true);

So thanks for the help, looks like the problem is solved.

[Robin W]

so bbpress does not do this bit, so what plugin or code are you using to display this area?

[Robin W]

that’s basically a rewrite of my code, so suggest that you have a problem somewhere.

You are putting this code in your functions file – yes ?

in which case can you show the actual code including the function/lines before it and after it

[thinkercorner11]

Hmm, he said there is no function, which is overriding these functions, but he send me this code:

function wpb_lastlogin() { 
    $last_login = get_user_meta(bbp_get_displayed_user_field( 'ID' ), 'last_login', true);
    if ($last_login) {
        $the_login_date = date_i18n(get_option('date_format'), $last_login);
    } else {
        $the_login_date = 'The user is not logged in yet.';
    }
    return $the_login_date; 
}

But still not working. It also could be that I messed up the integration process a bit, because I used a plugin to save the last login in the admin panel, and after this I was trying to use the snippet. Is there a way to reset the last login metadata?

[tierarepro]

I changed my WordPress database password and when I try to login I get the following error on wp-login.php

{"success":false,"data":[{"code":"bbp_converter_db_connection_failed","message":"Database connection failed."}]}

and on error.log

[14-Dec-2020 08:43:29 UTC] PHP Warning: register_shutdown_function(): Invalid shutdown callback 'BBP_Converter_DB::__destruct' passed in /public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/classes/class-bbp-converter-db.php on line 33

I tried to delete and reinstall bbpress plugin, but it didn’t help.
Any idea what is going on?

[boogieboa]

Thank you, @chalkie1983uk. Where in bbpress would the second snippet of code go?

I’ve got 28 plugins installed. I’m not trying to add any more.

Cheers

[chalkie1983uk]

You could use something like this in the functions.php file:

function is_user_logged_in() {
    $user = wp_get_current_user();
 
    return $user->exists();
}

then look into adding a function in the bbpress like so:

if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
    {display the content}
} else {
    {setup redirect}
}

Its a bit hard as you don’t want any plugins or addons, if you did it would be easier to just create a plugin which would automatically hook it in.

[Robin W]

so is this code ONLY in style pack, if it is also in the theme, please remove it from there

[thinkercorner11]

Thanks for the fast reply, but unfortunately it didn’t work. It’s still showing my last login date everywhere. I have tried to look what login date will show, when I am not logged in, but it is showing the same, so I think it has something to do, that it is showing the admin last login (not the one of the current logged in user). One possibility also could be that some code of the theme is overriding the functions of bbPress, so I will ask the developer if there is any theme related code to get the user id.

[Robin W]

suspect this is what you need – untested !!

$user_id = bbp_get_displayed_user_id() ;
$last_login = get_user_meta($user_id, 'last_login', true);

so if you go down the route you have, you’d add a second shortcode

function rew_lastlogin () {
	$user_id = bbp_get_displayed_user_id() ;
	$last_login = get_user_meta($user_id, 'last_login', true);
    $the_login_date = date_i18n(get_option('date_format'), $last_login);
   return $the_login_date; 
}

add_shortcode('bbp_lastlogin','rew_lastlogin');

and then use

<?php echo ‘Last seen: ‘. do_shortcode(‘[bbp_lastlogin]’) .’ ago’; ?>

[Robin W]

ok, changing themes will not I think get you any further. Without being able to see your site, I can’t really help further, as I can’t examine what is being downloaded to your browser, and what is either not taking effect or being overridden.

I take it you have been amending the 1.5em to see whether it changes – I just put a figure in there.

as a last guess, you could try

#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-info {
	font-size: 1.5em !important;
}

#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-topic-count {
	font-size: 1.5em !important;
}

#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-reply-count {
	font-size: 1.5em !important;
}

#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-freshness {
	font-size: 1.5em !important;
}

[Robin W]

you should not need to change theme !

So you put this code in additional css – yes ?

[Robin W]

#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-info {
	font-size: 1.5em;
}

#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-topic-count {
	font-size: 1.5em;
}

#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-reply-count {
	font-size: 1.5em;
}

#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles li.bbp-forum-freshness {
	font-size: 1.5em;
}

Hello there!

I was trying to integrate a code, so other users can see the last login of any user. The integration in the admin panel worked out with a snippet, which I found in the internet, but still, I couldn’t figure it out how to show it in the profile page.

The snippet, which I used is shown underneath (can be found here: https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-show-users-last-login-date-in-wordpress/). I did some changes in the function wpb_lastlogin:

<?php 
/**
 * Capture user login and add it as timestamp in user meta data
 *
 */
 
function user_last_login( $user_login, $user ) {
    update_user_meta( $user->ID, 'last_login', time() );
}
add_action( 'wp_login', 'user_last_login', 10, 2 );
 
/**
 * Display last login time
 *
 */
  
function wpb_lastlogin() { 
    $last_login = get_the_author_meta('last_login');
(also tried:      get_user_meta( $user_id 'last_login', true );
    $the_login_date = human_time_diff($last_login); - changed to: date_i18n(get_option('date_format'), $last_login);
    return $the_login_date; 
} 
 
/**
 * Add Shortcode lastlogin 
 *
 */
  
add_shortcode('lastlogin','wpb_lastlogin');
?>

This code above I have in my function.php file in my child theme. Till here everything works fine. Besides BBPress I use a forum theme (Disputo), where I want to integrate the last login in the profile page of the user. Therefore I was trying to figure out a code to do so. The page (as an example, my own user page) is: https://www.denkerecke.de/benutzer/lukas/. For that I was using the user-profile.php , which is also used by the theme. I also used the code from the website, which I mentioned before:

<?php echo 'Last seen: '. do_shortcode('[lastlogin]') .' ago'; ?>

Still, it didn’t work out. The problem is that on every user page only the last login of myself (the admin) is shown. I think its because somewhere in the code is a mistake, so not the user id of the user profile page is filtered, rather the user id of the current logged in user or the admin.

Does anyone have an idea to fix it? I would appreciate your help.

This will display emails in topics

add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'rew_author_email' );

function rew_author_email () {
	$id = bbp_get_reply_id() ;
	if (bbp_is_topic( $id ) ) {
		$author_id      = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $id );
		$user_info = get_userdata($author_id );
		$user_email = $user_info->user_email;
		echo $user_email;
		
	}
}

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
