I’ve been working quite a lot on this threaded view format. This is coded all outside of bbpress, but uses many of bbpress’s functions.

Well here is the trac ticket for Drupal Advanced Forum.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2756
Any help toward creating it/leading us to the right software to test out is greatly appreciated.
This bug is definitely in the latest 2.5.8 release while testing the default themes 2013-15, but is nonexistent in the 2.6 dev version.
So I assume it is fixed already, thing is its in 2.6.

Why didn’t you post a link in your other topic, and why did you create another new topic for the same issue??
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forum-content-not-showing-up-on-forum-page/
Also I tested your theme out and have not come across the same issue you are having. I didn’t need to create a “forum page”, it just worked fine out of the box.
That crashed my sight for some reason. Any thoughts?
@tallsam
Did you place the code snippet I placed earlier correctly?? It seems to work fine on my test site.
Same thing goes for @pinkishhue‘s code.
These both work if you want to show only 1 revision log on the Frontend of your forums.
But first, is there going to be an update to bbpress that will remove the extra revision statements? If so, any thoughts on when this will be ready?
Not really remove the statements, but just make 1 visible. Have no idea when @netweb’s code will make it into core.
@tallsam
Do you want them all gone?? This topic is all about just having one visible on the frontend.
Also there might be a bug about the revisions somewhere I think. Haven’t fully checked that one out though.
But you can always disable the revision logging from being displayed in the forums in Settings > Forums, there will still be revisions on the edits in the backend though, since it is a post type in WordPress. And hide the existing revisions with CSS using the first half of pinkishhue’s code.
There is a way to limit the total number of revisions kept per post though in WordPress.
But if you do want to completely remove the revisions you can use a plugin that @casiepa listed, but this may remove ALL revisions of any post or plugin using the revision system in WordPress. Some custom css plugins may use it, and clearing the revisions may lose all your saved styles.
Roll on 7 years and there are still no dedicated emoticons/smilies for BBPress. I’ve been testing the forum for use, but what forum on earth is worth its while if it doesn’t have smilies?
I tried the recommended wp-monalisa and ironically that completely disables BBPress when it is activated.
NOT impressed!
Ok, thank you so much. When it is looks like this, i really would appreciate your help!
Doing this test in the next 2 days…
Did THIS SITE using this, too… ?
I have been struggling with this for a few days now and I’m tearing my hair out!
It’s absolutely crucial that my forum only displays Usernames and NOT real names.
This thread seems to be the most promising info I could find…
User profile link, only show username.
I tried Robin’s Plugin…
bbpress username plugin
And I got REALLY excited as it seemed to do the trick. HOWEVER, I found one deal-breaker: When you look at the Forum Index- the plugin seems to put the Avatar of the latest Fresh post but show the Username of the Oldest post in that forum. Freshness time is displayed correctly.
If I Deactivate the plugin, All data is correct again, but obviously I am then getting real names displayed again.
I have emailed Robin to see if he is still supporting the plugin and can rectify.
Is there anybody here who would very kindly be able to walk me through step-by-step how to make this work. I don’t mind editing PHP files- I have no experience in PHP, but I can open them with Notepad and copy/paste text if someone can steer me.
I am so desperately frustrated with this issue. It’s to the detriment of my forum as members are reluctant to post unless its just their Username that is shown.
Many thanks in advance,
Regards,
Ian
I look after a site that is purely used as a forum and news posts and have two small groups that have an exclusive membership, the groups are hidden and until recently they appeared on the groups list. They are now invisible to the members of said groups though the list shows that there are some, you just can’t see them.
I am using the following:
Theme: Quest (1.3.0)
Plugins: Anti-Spam by CleanTalk (5.31), Buddypress (2.4.0), BBpress (2.5.8), FEEDZY RSS Feeds by b*web (2.6.1), Jetpack by WordPress.com (3.8.0), MailChimp Forms by MailMunch (2.1.3), Meta Slider (3.3.5), Sitewide newsletters (0.4)
I have tested this with Twenty Fifteen (I do not have the others installed). It works with Twenty Fifteen (but looks pretty awful).
I know that I can give people links to the forums, but it looks incredibly odd and is rather difficult for those who aren’t so savvy (or are looking for something quickly).
Does anyone have any idea why this isn’t working?
Hello community,
My requirement is that I need just a single forum. So ive created a forum and now I have to create topics and assign it to that forum. The name of the forum comes in the slug.
Is there anyway I dont have to create this forum. How about siteurl/bbpressslug/ simply lists all the topics and these topics dont have any assigned forum. What is the shortest way to accomplish this.
Also in that case, how do I use shortcodes like the following
[bbp-topic-form forum_id='$forum_id']
Thanks
Hi. I am hoping someone can assist me with this request.
I have installed BBPress and have created forums for my site.
http://dtcdancecentral.com/DTCTest/forums/
My background is dark on every page of the site, but I want to make the forums (once you drill down into a specific forum page & topics index page & replies page) white.
The problem I am having is that these pages are not actual pages – I have no idea where they are. I thought I would find them in my pages but the only thing there is the Forum page I created and inserted the BBPress forum shortcode.
I tried using the following code in the Divi Theme options & it worked; however, it changed all my backgrounds in all my other pages that I do not want touched :
For these types of pages :
1.http://dtcdancecentral.com/DTCTest/foru … community/
2.http://dtcdancecentral.com/DTCTest/foru … ic-2-test/
/*BBPress each indiv forum background – drill down 1*/
#main-content .container {
background: #ffffff !important
}
/*BBPress each topic/reply background – drill down 2*/
#main-content {
background: #ffffff !important
}
Thanks so much for any assistance you can provide.
i closed it, reopened it now it appeared again. then i added a testreply now when closing and reopening it doesnt disappear anymore?
I get a 404 when I go to the test topic for some reason. Can you close the embed topic, and also add a test reply so I can see if this issue is present.
@tallsam Its not really an issue since it should show a list of items in the latest version of bbPress and since Stephen’s ticket he linked to has not been committed yet.
IF @pinkishhue’s Custom CSS code does not work after you placed it in your child themes style.css file and have also tried adding !important on the end, you can try my custom php code snippet.
Make sure to place this into your child themes functions.php file in your child theme.
// Only return one entry for revision log otherwise it gets cluttered
function bbp_trim_revision_log( $r='' ) {
$arr = array( end( $r ));
reset( $r );
return( $arr );
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_revisions', 'bbp_trim_revision_log', 20, 1 );
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_revisions', 'bbp_trim_revision_log', 20, 1 );
I recreated a clone, exactly the same that the principal website.
All is the same, I remind that the website are configured on wordpress multisite.

Hello,
Customizer doesn’t save correctly when WP_DEBUG is enabled and bbPress is active.
With that I mean that the save button doesn’t change state after the AJAX call has been successful. This leads to a “navigation confirmation” alert after saving when trying to navigate away from Customizer.
I haven’t tested this without enabled WP_DEBUG, but bbPress also outputs the following notice:
Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init(). Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 2.3.) in /...../wp-includes/functions.php on line 3784
WordPress version: 4.4-beta3-35590
Theme: Twenty Sixteen 0.1.20150828
Thanks!
To be honest, never seen this question before. Normally you want to explain there what it is without cutting the phrase 🙂
The only way I see right now would be a jQuery like this one (50 is limit):
<script type="text/javascript">
function bbppc_cut_forum_text {
jQuery("div.bbp-forum-content").text(function(index, currentText) {
return currentText.substr(0, 50) + '...';
});
}
</script>
Then don’t forget to wp_enqueue_script to have this running.
But I have NO IDEA what the impact will be on other pages !!! And I didn’t test it either, just a quick thought.
Pascal.
ok – I have moved the forum nav tab to the top of the page with the others & I have added all files to my divi child theme.
http://dtcdancecentral.com/DTCTest/forums/
i was able to keep my forum index page looking the same – yeah!
My category, topics, replies pages are full width BUT they still have that white running down the sides.
Thanks for your reply. I have given you the wrong information. I have a root forum with several subforums. In want to show the latest topics from one subforum that has 4 childforums.
Then I’m really out of ideas 🙁
What you could do is just delete all of it and restart from scratch : https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/testing-your-bbpress-installation/creating-a-test-site/
There is something wrong with your local installation… I have never created a local one, but immediately went to a provider to have an account (even the very basic one). Maybe someone else has some ideas here.
Pascal.
Yep, the default theme there’s no topic display issue (tested before I posted here.) Just wondering if there was a standard code snippet that should be included in any template in order to get bbpress (wasn’t thinking it would be terribly different from template to template.) Since it’s a pro template, at least I can give their support forum a shot.
Anyone out there w/a similar theme conflict issue, how did you resolve it?
Hi Pascal! I finally found the reason: it is the bbpress language file.
I started everything from scratch and tested theme and plugins one by one. Your plugin works like a charm! 🙂
But when I finally switched my test site to my language (Finnish) and uploaded the language files (.po and .mo in wp-content/languages/plugins folder) it automatically makes a switch to the standard longer time stamp. How is this happening, can you help me with this? Thanks!
