Plugin lists all supported BBCodes and variants. What exactly is not working, can you post some examples?
I found @gdragon thaat some bbcodes don’t seem to work. Would this be due to my theme?
My GD bbPress Tools implements BBCodes: https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-bbpress-tools/ and many other things.
And I have GD bbPress Toolbox Pro plugin that adds even more BBCodes, it is linked from the free plugin page, so check it out also.
bboress has widgets for latest topics and latest replies
My style pack plugin has latest activity widget and several shortcodes including one to display latest topics
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>widgets

When recently updating to 2.6.2 version of bbPress, I am getting 404s when new user arrives on homepage of forums. 404s are visible to user and showing in logs. When page is hard refreshed, forums show up.
But strange, if, if user goes to link within forums (topic, etc.), no 404s occur.
I am using bbp-forum-index shortcode on homepage of forums. I did a test and issue doesn’t occur when shortcodes aren’t used (no 404), but of course, no forums are available.
With shortcodes, even through 404s occur, the sidebar displays and shows the user’s logged-in info (avatar, etc).
Issue seems to only occur when user is logged in and visits forums. I have forums on their own WordPress installation within a directory of main site.
I thought it might have been cache, but issue still occurs when cache is disabled.
Here is link to site:

Any suggestions on what might be occurring or what I do to troubleshoot issue? Thanks for any help
I mean if where is the list of changes published bbpress codes to know what codes are where found in what line changed etc.
For example, the page template has visible changes https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/111632/anima/1.4.0?old&old_path=%2Fanima%2F1.3.0.2
Is somewhere the same thing about bbpress?
Added this to my theme functions file:
// Adding function to block page content for any pages containing bbpress shortcodes.
add_filter(‘mepr-pre-run-rule-content’, ‘do_block_the_content’, 99, 3);
function do_block_the_content($block, $current_post, $uri) {
$block = 1;
return $block;
}
It seems to be doing what I want, but we’ll see.
I have read this topic:
Issues inserting/embedding videos
But when I insert the “bbpress shortcodes” there are two problems:
1/ The new setting does not show on my TinyMCE Advanced toolbar
2/ Going to their support forum results in an invalid domain
According to TinyMCE the [video] shortcode it support to render as a video. But when I paste it I just get the text. Now, I tried adding the functions.php to return video(...) but I got the same error for video being unknown.
So I am abit stuck.
I was hoping to use the dedicated TinyMCE “Video” but that only works for admin and I have no solution about the frustrating escaping of the chevrons. Thus I am looking at this video shortcode as an alternative.
Awesome indeed. I did not put two and two together. But then I noticed what it said on the screen:
Customise your Forums root. Partner with a WordPress Page and use Shortcodes for more flexibility.
Doh!
I don’t really understand why you need 2 separate pages for your forums.
If you create a page that matches the slug for your forum root, it will use that page instead, as well as the title.
Then, you can use bbPress shortcodes to fill in the content.
This is what we do here on bbPress.org, and it works pretty well.
Nope. I just tried with short codes and still shows no forums/threads.
Hi,
I’m currently using BuddyPress, bbPress, and Image and video gallery from Google Drive (all are latest updated). The plugin “Image and video gallery from Google Drive” provides a shortcodes is [sgdg path=”MyPath”]. I tried installing “bbPress – Do Shortcode” and it worked. However, the javascript file for loading is missing. Anyone can help me out please?
We have shortcodes for the login and password reset process.
The login form has a logout button that avoids the confirmation prompt.
The default logout experience asks the user to confirm.
What would be nice is ability for a logout shortcode that we can put on our own page so that the question is asked consistent with the theme.
I am using My Theme Login plugin so I can specify what page to use for logout.
As mentioned, the login form is avoiding the prompt but it would be nice if it was optional to show the prompt and that it could be done on our own page.
the [bsp-display-topic-index] shortcode in my style pack plugin may be what you need
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes to see how it works
I don’t use hand-coded, inline tempolates. I am using Templatera of WPBakery, and I am happy with it as it gives me a graphical overview of the structure, and they are easy to re-make or replace.
In WPBakery, I have a javascript module, an html module, but there is no PHP module.
But there is a text module which does accept shortcodes.
What do you recommend in this scenario?
I want to output bbPress single topic shortcodes with different IDs, through my single post template.
On post with the title “A” shortcode [bbp-single-topic id=6041], on post with the title “B” shortcode [bbp-single-topic id=6042], etc…
And the matching I need it via title strings, meaning that the topic with id 6041 would have the title “A”, and the topic with id 6042 would have the title “B”.
How to achieve this, and what would be the dynamic query?
I am using bbPress instead of comments, as they are post type, and I want to use this advantage.
bbp style pack
lets you add an ‘edit profile’ to the menu see
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>login
and also has a shortcode that you can put into a text widget in the sidebar
[bsp-profile’ label=’Edit Profile’ edit=’y’]
see
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes
Hi,
I have a gallery I would like to add either within the forum description or within a topic but bbpress is not parsing the shortcode. It is not a bbpress shortcode, it comes from a gallery plugin.
How do I enable parsing of other shortcodes within bbpress?
Thanks!
Good Afternoon,
I am currently having an issue with getting my template overrides to work on bbpress pages, like forums and questions( indlucing shortcodes). I have the files located in /wp-content/themes/mytheme/bbpress/ but they are not working. Is there something I have done wrong? Or something I need to do? I am trying to edit loop-forums.php and others.
Many thanks in advance for any help or advice,
Kind regards,
Dave
Robin, I’m closing the site again to try to restore some of what was deleted.
I think I found a solution. I simply created another page and used elementor and bsp shortcodes. Whichs seem to work fine. The Archives piece has disappeared and I can style with your shortcodes 🙂
In the case of categories, having elementor settings post types checked for posts seems to take away any ability to do anything with categories. I suppose that could have been the case with the archives bit, as well. but that really doesn’t make sense sense WP was completely deleted, including elementor. Perhaps it’s in phpMyAdmin. idk.
Anyway, we’re all good here. Just one question. Do I now need to change the root slug?
Thank you!
Storm
at this point, I am using bsp shortcodes…some work as stated..some don’t..so I’m just at a loss
Back to square one. I have tried everything I can think of. I have looked at several articles here, copied and pasted lots of CSS codes, tried everything I can think ok. Need some help please. Thank you.
It’s simple [bbp-single-topic id=724]
but there is not any result on the webpage.
Clicking on WP Menus->Forums at Forum-ID the number 724 is shown.
Via the hyperlink https://www.domain.com/root/forum/forum1/ the Topics are shown correctly.
—
The shortcodes [bbp-topic-index] and [bbp-stats] (without any ID) on the other hand work perfectly.
Ok, the hyperlink I found myself,
but I can’t guess why the single-shortcodes don’t show anything…
by the way:
Do you know why the single-shortcodes of bbPress don’t work?
[bbp-single-topic] [bbp-single-forum] [bbp-single-reply] [bbp-single-tag] and so on
have absolute no effect
