Hi @babblebey & @robin-w , thank you both for your work on this matter.

I’m trying to do the same on my Bbpress install (not online yet) in order to sort topic by number of “fav mentions”.

I tried your last two codes but it returns “0” (I hooked them on bbp_template_before_single_topic and putted them in two separated functions).

Does it still works for you? Did I get it all wrong?

Thank you for your answer. 🙂

I migrated a forum from vbulletin but now the customized smileys do not appear but I only see their code such as the writing: cgrd: or: by2:, how can I connect their codes to the smileys that I upload in ftp?

Thank

[Robin W]

nothing I know of doe this at the moment

If it’s a fixed list then just cascade eg

[bbp-single-topic id=4096]
[bbp-single-topic id=4097]
[bbp-single-topic id=4099]
[bbp-single-topic id=4099]

if you’re doing it programmatically then just do the ‘echo_shortcode’ in a foreach loop

or crack open /inclues/common/shortcodes and you can use the code form there to create what you want

Hi

I want to exclude “breadcrumb” from the topic list output screen of a specific forum.

i use to plugin’s bbp style pack, bbP shortcodes

thanks

I’m also interested in that type of shortcodes (and whether they exist), and if there are other ways to do it besides with shortcodes.

If the shortcodes for it don’t exist, I’m a little curious about why they don’t exist, though why they don’t exist isn’t a burning question, to me. I couldn’t find anything like it at https://codex.bbpress.org/features/shortcodes/.

Though, I already asked how to do it, not necessarily with shortcodes, at https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/links-to-what-was-started-created-by-logged-in-users/. I added the tag “alternatives” to let people know that there might be other ways to do it.

Thanks for your work.

If all I want to do is have links to the topics started (and replies created) by the user who is logged in, and I want something simpler than ProfileGrid and UsersWP, what words should I be using to search http://www.wpbeginner.com? Is there a better way to find which one to use?

Do I even need another plugin to do that? Did I fail to see what I need when I was looking through the bbPress and Style Pack widgets, the bbp Style Pack tabs, and the bbPress shortcodes?

[Robin W]

unanswered can be done by

bbp style pack

once activated

create a wordpress page and use the [bsp-display-topic-index …..] shortcode

see

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Shortcodes for how to use it – but create one with noreply

then you just create a link to that page

[deborah86]

Will the shortcodes be converted into blocks to work fully with the block editor? Is bbPress preparing for full-site editing that is coming this year?

[Robin W]

Still waiting to see if people using the Forums are having any issues using them.

not sure what this means 🙂

I would like to change the font color against the maroon top bars, from black to yellow, or grey, but I am not finding the right tab to do so.

probably theme related, but link to an example on your site please.

Why are there tabs for setting up logins/logim failures, if logging in is accomplished at the WordPress level?

bbpress has some widgets and shortcodes that let users enter username and password. these details are passed to wordpress security to go through login.

[Robin W]

you either want

dashboard>settings>forums>anonymous if you want anyone to be able to post

or add registration – bbpress uses wordpress registration, so anyone of then methods here will work.

https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-allow-user-registration-on-your-wordpress-site/

there is also a bbpress registration login which includes registration and bbpress shortcodes

[bbp-login] – Display the login screen.
[bbp-register] – Display the register screen.
[bbp-lost-pass] – Display the lost password screen.

In the forum session, I can’t add shortcodes to the forum I created, and I can not edit it with Elementor

Hello, I have installed BB press but my WP theme makes the font size very small.
Is there any way to cutomize the BB press Fourm? With another plug in? I know nothing about CSS but I know where to paste custom CSS codes…

This is how it looks:

[dnfoz45]

I know I can add ShortCodes to the pages, but can I add them in the forums section? I add and nothing happens

[Palagrin]

But that’s using the shortcodes and creating dedicated pages in WP right?

I want BBP to automatically generate these pages, eg. https://mywebsite.blog/forums/login

Pages required would be:
– login
– register
– password reset
– new topic
– new reply

My understanding of the shortcode is that if I wanted a new topic page, I would either have to have a generic one for the whole board or I would have to create individual ones for each forum based on the forum ID.

The solution I’m looking for is for BBP to dynamically generate them as required. Is that possible?

It seems odd to me that BBP doesn’t already do this.

EDIT: would something along these lines work? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32314278/how-to-create-a-new-wordpress-page-programmatically

[Palagrin]

Basically, instead of having the create topic / topic reply form on the same page as the thread I want to create a button that links to a secondary page. I know this is possible with shortcodes, but is there a way of doing this without shortcodes? So that BBP auto-generates the page itself?

[Palagrin]

I know you can use shortcodes to add forms (such as new topic, login, new reply etc) to dedicated pages, but is there a fucntion or hook I can use to simply get BBP to automatically generate a new form page?

[cassel]

Where do I set it to allow shortcodes to show inside bbpress posts?

[nayanboost]

And another thing, there are shortcodes on many pages. Just haven’t done anything with the profile page template.

[healtemple21]

Good Day, the shortcode bb-register , login and lost password aren’t working for me on WPBakery. Other bb shortcodes do work, such as bb-topic-index. Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

[Robin W]

for registration, set up a pages called whatever you wish and use the relevant shortcodes

[bbp-login] – Display the login screen.
[bbp-register] – Display the register screen.
[bbp-lost-pass] – Display the lost password screen.

Thank you Robin 😊

About the notes. Would you recommend a excel file logging everything I do with any code; for example which files (path) and which line/lines etc?

I have done some changes when reading some easy codes that I understood how to add etc. But dont remember them by now 😅

[neon67]

in the menu (after installing bbpress) Nothing will appear – you must create and customize the menu yourself.
Or use bbpress shortcodes for home page.

[flamuren]

I have you eminent plug in and love it already 🙂 And already checked the shortcodes there. However there is only a shortcode to add a button/text to press that links to the profile. I would love a shortcode as the [bbp-forum-index] but for example [bbp-forum-profile]. Cant find any but maybe there is non?

[Robin W]

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes

[flamuren]

How come I cant find a shortcode for the bbpress user profile?
