I’m not able to link to the site directly right now, unfortunately, but this is what the source looks like for the pagination area:

<div class="bbp-pagination-links">

Hello,
URL: http://yourtechadvisors.com/forums/topic/testing-safe-to-ignore/
I am using this plugin to add signatures: https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-bbpress-tools/

I would like the Revision information to align under the Signiture. I am currently using this CSS.

.topic.type-topic.status-publish > .bbp-reply-content,
.reply.type-reply.status-publish > .bbp-reply-content{
    display: -webkit-box;
    display: -moz-box;
    display: box;

    -webkit-box-orient: vertical;
    -moz-box-orient: vertical;
    box-orient: vertical;
}

.topic.type-topic.status-publish > .bbp-reply-content > .bbp-topic-revision-log,
.reply.type-reply.status-publish > .bbp-reply-content > .bbp-reply-revision-log{
	-webkit-box-ordinal-group: 2;
    -moz-box-ordinal-group: 2;
    box-ordinal-group: 2;
}

.topic.type-topic.status-publish > .bbp-reply-content > .bbp-signature,
.reply.type-reply.status-publish > .bbp-reply-content > .bbp-signature{
  -webkit-box-ordinal-group: 1;
    -moz-box-ordinal-group: 1;
    box-ordinal-group: 1;
}

It is working fine in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer and Safari on apple devices such as IPhones. Can you please take a look for me?

Thanks.

and of course

By default, you do NOT receive emails for your own topics/replies, only if somebody else replies on your subscribed topics

so testing would need two email accounts to prove !

Hi, to test what boolean came out I tested bbp_has_topics() in: custom_theme/bbpress/loop-topics.php.
In my custom theme it returns false and in wp twenty fifteen theme it returns true. Maybe using buddypress has something to do with it?

[Robin W]

ok, so

AS A TEST ONLY –
Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

[Pluew]

Thank you.
I checked both points. I received the test email successfully. So it is bbpress.

@brovashift

Ok I’ve done some testing.

bbpress uses the display_name as stored in wp_user table.

If you allow registration

ie – Dashboard>settings>membership – anyone can register

then yes, the user_nicename and the display_name in wp_user table are the same and the same as the username entered by the person registering.

If you don’t allow registration, and you add users manually

ie Dashboard>users>add new user

and you don’t enter the first and last name, then the user_nicename and display_name are the same

BUT if you enter the firstname and lastname, then the nice_name is the username, but the display_name is saved as firstname followed by lastname !

So a bit of inconsistency by WordPress.

Now display_name is all that we can play with in bbpress, and users can change their display_name under bbpress in the profile area.

So I plan to put a function in my style pack that will let the user choose what the default display_name is, and optionally disable users from creating a nickname and/or changing the default.

I just installed the latest version (2.5.8) on bbPress on a WordPress site where The Event Calendar plugins (vers. 4.0.7) was installed. After that, I wasn’t able to add or modify an event. I disabled bbPress, and then The Event Calendar works well as before.
Does anayone khow about this problem ? I would like to keep using The Event Calendar but also start using bbPress.

Thank you for your help!

Hi,
Not sure what customizations you have, but I normally switch theme to do a test and so far I never had issues in switching back. But we need to exclude that it’s a theme issue.

(I have no access to the site, so I’m only guessing).

Pascal.

[Stephen Edgar]

Did I get it backwards? I confused myself when testing this. :/

Can you test this with a new user please and create the appropriate ticket based on the results if needed 🙂

• When a new user is created they *only* have a username
• The user does *not* have a first and last name
• Once a user adds their first and last name the username is still used
• Now, if a user goes to their profile and *chooses* their display name to *use* their first and last name then that is that users *choice*

[Robin W]

@netweb On my test site it does firstname/lastname. Am I going mad?

[Robin W]

load up my stylepack plugin and use latest activity widget

thanks they seem to be showing up now. Do I have to approve every topic and reply made? i created a new test topic and in the breadcrumb it says +1 hidden.

Hello,

I just updated a recent installation of bbPress (version 2.4.? to 2.5.8) today and “Change Forum Role” in the Users>All Users interface is not working. However, the all roles (site role & forum role) are editable when following the edit link under the users’ name. This is a version 4.4.2 Multisite installation and I have tested bbPress both as a Network install and a single site install with the same results. Here are some screen captures…

Selecting user and moderator:

Clicking the Change button:

After clicking the Change button:

Thank you,
Don

[stussi]

So it isn’t taking you to where you want it to also huh? I click on public discussion and it takes me to my post page, which I dont have any post since this is not a blog site. I have latest bbpress and wordpress.

[Robkk]

Sorry for the late reply.

If it is pending the only thing in bbPress’ code that can add posts into pending is when a post contains a word in the comment moderation input box in Settings > Discussion and like I said before some plugins could add their own blacklist and hook into this, so make sure you have some spam plugins while you are testing this.

In the past there was a user that had to approve posts manually because a plugin at the root of the users server called “mojo marketplace” has a hidden blacklist inside of it that affected the posts.

You may also want to remove the “http” and “wwww” in your blacklist as this may be affecting it too.

@uschesch

Are you using a free theme?? We could test to see if we can duplicate this issue.

[Robin W]

@_az_ I am happy to do whatever I can. have you set up the GitHub repo or shall i do it and add the necessary people?

If you need any further research into any variables or testing to see results etc please just tell me and i will find all the info i can.

[Robin W]

sorry still don’t understand.

Well, it is fixed in bbPress 2.6 that should come up pretty soon, so if you can hold a bit longer… If not, feel free to install the alpha version (for testing) that is pretty stable : https://bbpress.org/download/

Any input would be welcome !

Thanks, Pascal.

@fterra – thanks for your suggestions.

I have it working using ‘bbp_forum_attributes_metabox_save’ as you suggested but have found, perhaps not surprisingly, my function is fired on an update to the meta date. So with the code below I create a new forum and all users are subscribe; some choose to unsubscribe; I update something in the meta data and everyone is subscribed again – not good. Any idea how I can determine whether this is a first time save or an update?
Also I do not want to auto subscribe to group forums. I have fixed this by hard-coding in the group forum’s id, but maybe there is a better way of testing whether a forum_id is a group forum?

Any ideas welcome thanks.

function ovni_subscribe_users_to_new_forum($forum_id){  // subscribe all users to a new forum unless it is a group forum
	if (bbp_get_forum_parent_id( $forum_id ) == 969) return;  // if this is group forum, do nothing
	$all_user_ids = get_users();
	foreach ($all_user_ids as $this_user){
		bbp_add_user_forum_subscription($this_user->id, $forum_id);
		}
	}
add_action('bbp_forum_attributes_metabox_save', 'ovni_subscribe_users_to_new_forum');

@casiepa
Do you think i should just gather any info i can and assign to the trac ticket?

The solution posted a bit further up the thread by @_az_ does the basics of removing the forum slug but as he mentioend there are a few places where the permalinks are claled like breadcrumbs etc

From what i can find out (i am not a programmer but am trying) for a quick fix we would need to get the forum parent id from the post itself then get the slug for that forumid and any parents it has. then the post permalink is built from the parent slug and the post slug.

This needs to hook into the permalink function to override this and there is a good example (for a different purpose) here https://github.com/korobochkin/bbpress-permalinks-with-id which i think covers off all of the different places that the changes need to be made and could possibly be used as a basis for the new plugin / code.

I am happy to do all the testing and research if anyone is able to provide some coding experience to the mix. please just get in contact with me and i will show you everything i have found so far. then we can publish the code into the trac ticket and hopefully the main devs can put this into core.

If anyone has any ideas on blocking issues for this also please tell me.

I know one of the potential issues and the reason for this structure in the first place was duplicated urls. Could anyone please explain the thinking behind this. and how it might present an issue.

I know the current topics post type wont alow duplicates so the only issue i can see would be if the forum name was the same as a topic name. Is that the only time this might happen?

If so we would need to create a check when saving the url/permalink that a forum post type does not have the same permalink and if it does then add 1 to the end?

The way most other forums do this is by appending the thread id into the permalink so it would appear to be /my-friendly-title-11234 for example where the post id is 11234

not saying bbpress should do this but its an option as the id for the post is available.

[Robin W]

Whilst it needs sorting in the core product, the ticket says that putting this in the css file will fix, and did on my test site

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author img.avatar,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author img.avatar {
position: relative
}
