just tried a shortcode in the footer of my test site running twentyten, and it works on both bbpress and non bbpress pages using the text widget

[archux]

The function is_bbpress() is for any page of bbpress

Does not matter, it is account or forum or topic… on all pages…
Footer is built with visual composer…

If i use a shortcode to display forum index, the footer works fine. as soon i click into form:

https://<domain>/forums/forum/<forum name>/ footer breaks
https://<domain>/forums/topic/<topic name>/ footer breaks
https://<domain>/forums/user/<user name>/ footer breaks

It becomes as: [vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”…” ….]…….[/vc_row]

Looks like on those page the WordPress function do_shortcode is disabled/unactivated…

Do this make more clear on what pages and what happens with footer?

[Robin W]

can you give an example – eg of a footer shortcode that breaks and what bbpress page

[archux]

Hi

This is a major issue with bbpress and I could not find a resolution to it. I found couple of similar requests but no one have full resolution.

Basically, if page can be recognized as is_bbpress() true than the footer shortcodes breaks.

How to fix that? Is there some patch?

[akira010203]

I dit the trick with some CSS improvments :

width: 100px;
padding: 2px;

@media(max-width:580px) {
div#bbpress-forums {
overflow: visible !important;
}
	#bbpress-forums span.bbp-admin-links a,
			#bbpress-forums span.bbp-admin-links 
			{
				width: 100px;
				padding: 2px;
				color: grey;
			}
}

No worries Robin, I appreciate you are trying to help!

Your question raises a very valid point – I didn’t think it could be related. I currently have my Forums page set up like this:

Recent topics

[bbp-topic-index]

All topics

[bbp-forum-index]

[uscjohn]

I think I found the answer maybe. https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/exporting-data/#:~:text=Log%20into%20your%20WordPress%20back%2Dend.&text=You%20will%20see%20a%20screen,the%20Download%20Export%20File%20button.

[Robin W]

sorry, working across many things and missed that.

so that page is made up of ‘all topics’ and ‘recent topics’ – are these shortcodes on a page, or how is this page content created?

[berry metal]

Oh and I forgot to mention that I did test it by deactivating plugins and changing theme. The issue persists, when the shortcode is used.
Is AJAX enabled for the buttons if the Subscribe and Favorite buttons are used within the Replies shortcode?

[flamuren]

Many thanks I will give it a try. However there is so many things that is not working properly so its starting to become a case for some freelancer site. I dont really know what I am doing 🙂

I read your guide: https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum/

But I cant get the forum to display using method 1 in the above guide. And method 2 is the one I have done from the start but cant get to look the way i want.

If the plugin “bbp style pack” fix the design, there is still the issue with weird menus and different urls within the forum etc. Could it be that I created the forum before changing WP-theme? Could it help to remove BB-press and then reinstall it from the ground up?

[Babak Fakhamzadeh]

Yeah, that should be fine, @neon67.

In my point 4, above, you would add a tab for your private chats and then just include the shortcode via a print do_shortcode().

[Robin W]

if within content you can use

How to filter bbpress content in WordPress

but if at the bottom of ‘bbpress’ pages, then there are a bunch of actin hooks you can link to

do_action( 'bbp_template_after_forums_index' );
do_action( 'bbp_template_after_topics_loop' );
do_action( 'bbp_template_after_replies_loop' );
do_action( 'bbp_template_after_user_profile' );
do_action( 'bbp_template_after_search_results_loop' );

should get you most of the way there

[neon67]

Hello! I want to add a new tab to the User profile with the “private messages” shortcode (separate plugin). In order for users to be able to operate with their message box inside the profile.
May be done by @mastababa way?
Where need to put the message-shortcode at the last stage of example coding (or first make a page with a shortcode and then insert it?)

[Lars Henriksen]

Hello,

I would like to use autoptimize on a site with bbpress, but aggregating Js-files breaks the bbpress editor.

By searching the forum I found this topic, but maybe more files have to be excluded in 2.6?

Does anyone here aggregate bbpress js succesfully – if so, how?

Thanks, Lars

[Robin W]

the setting is ‘bmen_mute’ and if present then email not sent. If absent, then email sent

so

$do_not_send = get_user_meta ($user_id, 'bmen_mute' , true) ;
if (empty ($do_not_send)) {
//then send
}
else {
//do not send
}

/** add field to bbp edit **/
    public function peditField()
    {
        $opt = $this->settings();
		?>
			<div>
				<label for=""><?php echo apply_filters('bmen_pedit_field_header', __('Email notifications', $this->text_domain)); ?></label>	
				<label>
					<input type="checkbox" name="bmen_notify" style="width: auto;" <?php checked( $this->canNotify( bbp_get_displayed_user_field('ID') ) ); ?> /> <?php echo $opt['label']; ?>
				</label>
			</div>
		<?php

Think the custom field for the checkbox for email notifications for @mentions is bmen_notify

[Robin W]

generally the styling is part of the theme – the ‘submit’ button has classes of ‘submit’ and ‘button’, so see if you theme lets you change this.

if not try

http://css3buttongenerator.com

this will give you code you can put in your themes custom css area

just change

.btn {

to

.button {

and

.btn:hover {

to

.button:hover {

before you paste the code

[Robin W]

add_action( 'bbp_template_before_topics_loop' , 'rew_add_shortcode3'); 

function rew_add_shortcode3 () {
	echo do_shortcode( '[shortcode here]' );
}

[Robin W]

if you mean the bits in dashboard>settings>bbp mentions they are in the options table under ‘bmen_settings’

so

get_option('bmen_settings', null)

[truth4vahid]

Could you give me another code to put shortcode in this area under lables:

[Robin W]

Coding to do ID’s is possible I suspect, but I have no idea how to do that 🙂

This article suggests that urls are used for seo ranking

https://moz.com/learn/seo/url

and says

A well-crafted URL provides both humans and search engines an easy-to-understand indication of what the destination page will be about.

Although URLs can include ID numbers and codes, the best practice is to use words that people can comprehend.

Just a thought.

[bodybyloud]

@robin-w Sorry but that bit of code created a fatal error when I used it in the plugin. Please let me know if you’re available to custom code it for me.

[bodybyloud]

@robin-w Thanks so much for the code. I think I’ll try to implement it with the code snippet plugin, I’m not familiar with adding code to files. One thing, the custom post type is actually called “job-listing” is it ok to change the term in the code snippet you provided?

[Robin W]

@bodybyloud the old version might work for you if you are not using blocks if you add this

add_filter( 'bbppt_eligible_post_types', 'rew_add_types' ) ;

function rew_add_types () {
	$types = array( 'post', 'page', listings' )  ;
return $types ;
}

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
