Hello
New to bbpress “to be honest I have always used wpForo” and I am finding it to be far far easier than this bbpress option and a much cleaner appearance, where I would of had wpForo up and running in less than 30 minutes, I have been working on this bbPress for 2 days now and still now where near making it usable to frontend members”

But here I am giving you guys the benefit of the dout as my current needs require something a little different.
My issue not displaying the profile page as that is childs play to do but to get the /user page edited so that it all properly aligns https://support.ozy.net.au/support-forums/users/dummy/

Now click on this link https://support.ozy.net.au/support-forum/ to login.
I have created a dummy account that I will leave active for a few days giving you change to have a look
UN – dummy@yours.com
PW – 1dummytest1

I understand/know these are widgets but my issue is not being able to access this USERS page to make any changes and i can’t seem to find it anywhere in the system or cPanel file system.

I also have the same issue with another plugin but just can’t find it right now.
This “bbp Topic Count” plugin also doesn’t work as no shortcodes displayed here actually work
Thi scan be seen here https://support.ozy.net.au/top-users/ at it should appear above the profile you see there “considering you do see that profile from your end that is”

Having said this I have spent the last 2 days looking online at options and ways around all these things but most of what you find is so outdated and the rest in most part doesn’t work.

I am creating this for a network which means just setting it up is a big job without the hassles this plugin is giving me and the last thing I need is constant maybe’s and what if’s so either this plugin works or it doesn’t. Not trying to be rube just very direct in my needs.

Hope you can help.
Cheers

HELP: WP 4.9.8; bbPress 2.5.15; site: azor.vip

Hello, I am a senior citizen noob building a one-off site. I wish to post admin questions from my backend what will appear live on my site.

I have written my post and clicked on Published. Nothing happens. Some time ago when I asked this same question, I was told to do something with shortcodes. I became frustrated because I don’t know what a shortcode is, where I find it, and what I do with it. So I am re-visiting my original question.

I would be very grateful if you could give me some steps.

[marketing050]

Okay, i used shortcodes for pages and redirected the index to these specific pages. But now the different users can’t see the specific topics. They are listed in the index with all the topics, but when you click further on a specific topic, I still get an 404 error. How do i change this?

[jd-fb]

I was wondering if there were a way to not have a topic’s content appear in its own box at the top of the reply list. Ditto for the forum content (in other words, the HTML that output using bbp_topic_content() and bbp_forum_content() respectively).

The built-in bbPress styling shows the topic and forum content in a box that has the same (or very simiar) styling as replies. In my case, I’d like to remove the box so that the content appears as though it’s the lead-in text of a page (with H2s, H3s and so forth) with the replies + reply form below.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Idea / potential solution 1)
I found that I can do this:

add_action ('bbp_template_before_single_topic', 'show_text');
function show_text() {
	ob_start();	
	echo '<div class="my_class">';
	add_action ('bbp_get_topic_content', 'do_shortcode'); // added b/c the content may have shortcodes
	bbp_topic_content();
	echo '</div>';   
	$output = ob_get_clean();   
	echo $output;
}

But this results in the topic content appearing in both the “top” of the page (as I’d prefer) and in its box listed with the replies (which I’d like to remove).

Idea / potential solution 2)
I’m guessing there’s something I can do with a template. If so, can someone direct me to how my plug-in can override bbPress’s template? I haven’t done a lot of template work.

Troubleshooting
– All themes have this “extra box” issue.
– Using WP 4.9.8
– Using bbPress 2.5.14-6684
– I’m working on a local site, so I can’t provide a link

[gokberktalu]

Is there a simple way to make the forum index page full width? I’ve searched the support forum and copied various CSS codes but nothing worked so far..

[Helmuts]

another sample of the latest forums page where the above mentioned bbcodes have been used: https://www.ibf.lv/svaigakas-foruma-zinas/ (Latvian business forum)

[Helmuts]

A quick update – ..this topic ranks in the top positions of Google on these keywords and needs updating.

My suggestion: set up plugin “bbPress Advanced Statistics” https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-improved-statistics-users-online/

and use the shortcode: [bbpas-activity] (you have to enable it first in settings under “extra” tab”

—

Sample (latest forum posts): https://www.lustjobs.com/latest-posts-custom-forum-view/

There are 2 bbcodes on this page:
[bbp-topic-index]
[bbpas-activity]

—

as for the default bb code: you have to use use [bbp-stats] not [bbp-statistics]

[Milan Petrovic]

bbPress has a login and registration widget include to use in the sidebar. It also has shortcodes to embed these forms into pages, so you can use that to make your login/register page and style it using CSS.

[robineero]

I am thinking of soving this idea by creating new page for every forum page with shortcodes and by using redirection plugin to redirect original forum link to customised one.

Does it make sense?

[Robin W]

Shortcodes

and to customise and style bbpress try

bbp style pack

[Yin Jin]

i want to show forums on my own theme but i don’t know how. does bbpress provide shortcodes?

[andreasyeah]

ok got it! since i am not that much into codes,

could you please tell me where i have to add the post type if the post type is “release” for example:

/** Only process for post types we specify */
if( !in_array( $post->post_type, apply_filters( ‘bbppt_eligible_post_types’, array( ‘post’, ‘page’ ) ) ) ) {
return;

thank you very much for your help 😉

[Tommy White]

Where would I find information on changing the CODE /CODE button in bbpress to act like the wordpress CODE insert?

In other words in bbpress clicking the CODE button gives you`
in WordPress clicking the CODE button gives you < code > < /code >

I’m having an issue with a plugin since it handles how my CODEs are displayed and one or the other is broke pending which settings I use.

I hope that makes sense..

Hi there,

I have been using wordpress for the last year. In October I took over the completion of a site for a company I am working for. I set up a forum on the website using bbpress. All has worked fine until recently. Yesterday my boss pointed out an error on the forums page. See error here

I began trying to fix it by remaking the page, using different shortcodes and changing/refreshing settings. All my other shortcodes that I’m using on my website are working fine, and when I use a shortcode for a different plugin in the same place on this page, it works fine. The shortcode I have been using is [bbp-forum-index]. I don’t know what caused it to stop working, as I have not installed any new plugins since before it has stopped working.

WordPress 4.9.6 running Sydney theme.

[hossamhamdy]

I do accept that, it’s just the first time I ask was 5 days ago and I stopped working on the website coz I had to solve this problem first.

Here’s a link to the forum page: https://www.yt-creatorcommunity.com/forums/forum/ساحة-التفاعل/

I added a custom css to solve the picture problem, so it’s now normal but only because I edited the css codes, and about the registration the up bar still doesn’t appear so I added a widget to solve this problem, but it doesn’t look good though.

[Robin W]

it is ‘simply’ ‘showing the forums and sub forums’ – if you want it to show topics as well, then you would use a page with a list of shortcodes eg [bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id]

This will show all the topics – you would need to do some coding to just show topic titles.

[mar6co]

Hi bbpress friends,

I want to combine the shortcode with a href html command. At the moment iam doing this:

<td>

[caption id="attachment_238" align="aligncenter" width="150"]<a href=[bbp-topic-form forum_id=659]><img class="wp-image-238 size-thumbnail" src="http://hilf-mir-aus.de/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/internet.png" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a> Internet & Technik[/caption]
</td>

Any guesses, its not working…

Hello!

We are looking to modify BBpress meaning:

– remove the possibility for anonymous users posting answers to questions.
– remove BBpress notices like ”You can publish HTML content” or ”You can use BBCodes to format your content”.
– remove the website field request when asking a question, along subject type and question status.
– add a name for the description field regarding the title of the subject.
– customize the right sidebar to include: add a question, search and categories of the forum.

We are using bbpress 2.5.14 and wordpress 4.7.9. Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Hello,

I’m trying to style my subforums (background, h1 entry text etc.) but unfortunately when I change the css it also affects and overwrites my other posts…

Can I assign ids or classes? When I insert the subforums with shortcodes in custom pages, how can I change the breadcrumb links in the main forum page and all subpages?

I hope somebody can help me out. Thanks in advance.

Best

Jacob

[Robin W]

what shortcodes are you using ?

[Yanur Islam Piash]

Hi,

No shortcodes are working in the bbpress pages. The shortcodes are runnng very well in all other pages of my site. Just not working on bbpress topics, forums and replies pages. So I guess the problem is within bbpress. I tried to find out plugin conflict but no conflict was found.

Here is one of my topic pages: click on the “Login” or “register” button in the top menu. A hover will appear where I put a shortcode that works well in any other pages. Also, you can click on “contact” in the footer to see another shortcode not working. No problem with the plugins created shortocode or the popup modal, as they are working just fine in all other pages.

All the plugins, themes and applications are updated.

[bensainz]

I am having trouble getting the topic page template to default to the same page format as my forum page. I created a custom template “bbp-sidebars” that presents my forum page with a sidebar for forum page views and topic views. The forum picks up the custom template, but the topics page ignores it and defaults to the blog view template. So far I downloaded bbp Style Pack, bbp shortcodes, bbP Tookkit, Weaver for bbPress, and What the File to see if there was a setting to accomplish my goal. I also read multiple articles on custom templates, but none address the topic layout. Also, after a new topic or topic response is posted, I can manually go in and set the page settings to have it display the way I want. While my site is growing I can probably do this, but after a certain point it will be too hard to keep up.

I am using WP 4.9.4, ForeFront theme Version 1.04 as a subtheme under GeneratePress V 2.02
My Website is https://defensecareersHQ.com PW is “VetsHelpingVets”
An example of my issue can be viewed here
https://www.defensecareershq.com/forums/topic/how-about-l-3-technologies/

Also, please note I manually set the all other topic pages to display correctly. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

[angrywarrior]

Hi! 🙂

Pretty much as the subject says. Is there somewhere a list over all BBcodes that you can use in BBpress?

I spent some time googleing after this but I could not find any published information.

Thank you.

Kind regards
AngryWarrior

[chumtarou]

Apologies for the delay in responding!

Thanks very much Robin for your great work – I am still working away on the site but your shortcodes and plugins are very useful. I will be sending in a donation soon. Greatly appreciated.

And thanks for asking Pascal – I’m working on an internal staff forum for an existing intranet so I won’t be able to post here, sorry.
