So I guess I’m not understanding how this all works. The website is a photography club and is wordpress.org. I just added this bbPress forum plugin and have all the forums set up. I’m ready to test with two other people. I now need to have a place were the two others can register, I then want an email so I can review and approve them. How do i accomplish this? After that I think the login page with the shortcode provided by Robin W should work.

@robin-w, @carasse64:
I tried it on a test site just now. I didn’t do any extensive testing, but does appear to work!
Pretty cool.

I’m ready to test out the forum with a few people before adding the forum login link to the main menu. I want them to have to login like the link was in place so I’ll just email the login link to them. I’m not quite sure how this should be set up. Do they use the same login as I do as the site administrator? I don’t want them to see the sites back end, just to login so they can participate in the forum.

thx,
Steve

sorry, test was invalid – I had my test user with too many privileges!

So, users who can ‘Throttle’ (see https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/before-installing/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/ for list) bypass the duplicate check – so likely that if you were testing you will have that capability.

Can you comer back if you still have an issue.

[Robin W]

I can repeat this issue on my test site post 5.9.3.

I’ll take a look to see.

[Robin W]

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

thanks, I’ve just loaded sydney 2.02 onto my test site, and I can create forums.

Can you confirm that you only have the theme and bbpress active?

If so, can you just confirm exactly what you are doing as a series of steps, eg dashboard>forums>add new…….. etc.

[Robin W]

hmmm…

Possibly a theme or plugin conflict

untested, but this should work

add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_post_date', 'rew_date_only' , 20, 6) ;

function rew_date_only ($result, $topic_id, $humanize, $gmt, $date, $time ){
		$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id( $topic_id );

		// 4 days, 4 hours ago
		if ( ! empty( $humanize ) ) {
			$gmt_s  = ! empty( $gmt ) ? 'G' : 'U';
			$date   = get_post_time( $gmt_s, $gmt, $topic_id );
			$time   = false; // For filter below
			$result = bbp_get_time_since( $date );

		// August 4, 2012 at 2:37 pm
		} else {
			$date   = get_post_time( get_option( 'date_format' ), $gmt, $topic_id, true );
			$result = $date;
		}

		// Filter & return
		return apply_filters( 'rew_date_only', $result, $topic_id, $humanize, $gmt, $date, $time );
	}
}

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

or use

Hi

We have tested all cache systems

Best cache plugin is LiteSpeed Cache

this plugin is also made for bbpress 🙂

(works even better with a litespeed server you can get at Hostinger for instance)

if you subscribe to a topic, then you receive notifications of replies
if you subscribe to a forum, you get notification of new topics

if unsubscribing isn’t working, then it might be something extra that is added, it could be a theme or plugin issue

Therefore asking this question on both buddypress.org and bbpress.org support forums. Wondering that this issue has not been yet reported.

If bbpress is enabled hidden bp-groups are not visible for member/moderator or administrator wihin own groups in BP overview page. The number of hidden groups is reported correct under ‘My Groups’ but no icons are shown. Hidden groups are only viewable and accessible via search function.

Tested with these two plugins only activated. Standard WP Install without ‘bp-custom.php’.

Environment:
bbPress 2.6.9 (2.7-alpha), BP 10.0 – 10.2.0, WP 5.9.2, PHP 7.4 (Themes: WP TwentyTwentyTwo and BuddyX)

[DeepBlue]

I agree with you, but i tested bbpress with the top 20 wordpress themes, and confirmed that user profile and search pages were not detected by any theme

all other pages are detected except those 2

it’s like those 2 pages don’t belong to the same template than other bbpress pages in the core code

[Robin W]

Sorry – you seem to want to abuse me as being stupid. I just help out here for free so phrases such as

I do not see the connection with the question ever.

and

Certainly I took a while to understand what you wanted to explain but I did it.

are not welcome.

I hope you are able to sort your issue, which may be site related or that you are doing something I am not.

Maybe try and do here what you are doing on your test site – this site is bbpress.

Hello.
Certainly I took a while to understand what you wanted to explain but I did it.

I took your Pink Floyd link as an example, I pressed the share button, I copied the link that came out and pasted it in a response in a test forum of my site. In this way the preview is generated but the URL is still double. But the question is: who is going through this procedure to share a link? I believe nobody … 🙂

[Robin W]

not what I am seeing on my test site – standard fault finding applies 🙂

[Robin W]

works on my test site and these are native to wordpress

Using Smilies

If it’s not working for you, then try the usual fault finding.

If you want more, I’ve not used any, but

https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/emoticons/

try one that says it works with custom post types

[Robin W]

ok, If you are certain that

1. the box is being ticked (by default it is left blank), and that
2. emails are working from within bbpress (ie if someone else subscribes to the topic they get an email)

then the standard fault finding applies…

it could be a theme or plugin issue

but latest 5 if you have style pack installed would be

add_action( 'bbp_template_after_replies_loop', 'rew_other_topics' );

function rew_other_topics () {
	 $topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id() ;
	 $forum_id = bbp_get_topic_forum_id($topic_id) ;
		echo do_shortcode("[bsp-display-topic-index show='5' forum =".$forum_id." template = 'list']") ;
}

though this would show the topic again if it were in the latest 5!

Hello,

I found a bug when using bbrpess and WOOF (Woocommerce Product Filter). Indeed, when bbpress is activated, when you want to filter products by category, the WOOF’s widget disappears. With a lot of tests on multiples websites, I found this bug comes from bbpess.phpclass on setup_variables() function when the attribute topic_tag_tax_id gets apply_filters( 'bbp_topic_tag_tax_id', 'topic-tag' ) value. When you comment this line, the bug is solve.
As I don’t need tags on my Forum, I just need to set $this->topic_tag_tax_id = 0 and hide Topic tags form.

But Here is my final problem : How can I overwrite this class because it’s not a template but the plugin file ?

PS : I tried every possibilities (plugins versions, select another theme, change product database, catch network and files errors), the bug really comes from here as strange as it may seem.

Cheers,

TomCrise

none of this testd, but the actual adding of an image to the post would be something like

add_action('bbp_template_before_single_topic', 'pym_print_featured_image_single_forum', 11);
		
	function pym_print_featured_image_single_forum() {
		if (has_post_thumbnail()) {
			echo '<div class="pym-bbp-topic-thumbnail">';
			echo get_the_post_thumbnail(null, 'thumbnail' );
			echo '</div>';
		}
	}

adding featured topic to the backend would be something like

add_post_type_support('topic', array('thumbnail'));

Code could be written to allow the user to add an image, but that’s a chunk of work !!
