@newest- ok, thanks for that.

It works the other way around, you add a topic to a post, not a post to a topic.

so when you publish or edit a wordpress post, you can attach a topic to it.

I didn’t write the original plugin, and Gutenberg made it not work, so I have been given editing rights to try and fix it.

so start by going to

dashboard>settings>discussion and you will see topics for posts about half way down – here you can set up the default actions.

Then as a test create a post.

on the right hand side you should see Post and Block options, make sure you have clicked Post

You should then see near the bottom either in the main but or in the sidebar a ‘Topics for Posts’ box, which will show the defaults.

If you don’t see this (as Gutenberg unhelpfully tries to hide anything useful to the user) click the 3 vertical dots on the right hand side right of publish and the settings cog, at the bottom you will find ‘preferences’ and in that you will find the option to show the topics for posts under additional panels section at the bottom

Sorry this is all horrible – it’s not me making it so I promise you 🙂

I agree with the original poster. the list of plugins leads to many outdated and unsuported so it may be good to add a filter for plugins that are usable for the latest version?

For me the bbp style pack has been the most usefull along with (thankyou Robin!) 🙂

These are the plugins i have installed so far…

bbP Signature
bbp style pack
Hide Admin Bar From Front End
Image Upload for BBPress
reCaptcha by BestWebSoft
Site Kit by Google
Smush
Super RSS Reader
WP Mail From II
WP User Avatars
Yoast SEO

Im looking for………….

Add smilies/emoticons to tinyMCE
Upload of attachments such as sound files and video to play inside a post
External Links to open in a new tab…

Nice to meet you all 🙂

Next Update Aft Feb 11, 2021.
Having looked more into the WP post table, it turns out that the post_parent value has been associated with the forum id (fid) from MyBB and as such the importer converts each of these unassociated reply entries as a new topic as it can’t create the reply association needed by BBPress that relies on replies post_parent being tied to the initial post/reply in a topic.
Based on this latest understanding I expect I am going to have to go in to the MyBB post table and manually populate the replyto column as this is not likely something that can be resolved, based on my knowledge, by changes or updates to the converter. I am going to create a duplicate install of my latest MyBB installation and test this process to see if I am correct.

[Robin W]

just had a quick look

this should get you close, totally untested !!

<?php $args = array( 'post_type' => 'topic', 'post_parent' => bbp_get_forum_id() ); 
$loop = new WP_Query( $args );
//get the current topic id or maybe depending in where you are putting this - bbp_get_reply_topic_id or bbp_get_reply_id()
$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id() ;
while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); 
	$cur_id = get_the_ID();
	if ($cur == $topic_id)  {
		$prev = get_previous_post() ;
		$prev_id = $prev->ID ;
		$next = get_next_post();
		$next_id = $next->ID ;
	break ;
	}
endwhile;
//so you now have $cur_id, $prev_id and $next_id
//so create 3 lines
if (!empty ($prev_id)) {
	$permalink = get_permalink($prev_id) ;
	$title = get_the_title ($prev_id) ;
	echo '<a href="'.$permalink.'">'.$title.'</a>' ;
}
if (!empty ($cur_id)) {
	$permalink = get_permalink($cur_id) ;
	$title = get_the_title ($cur_id) ;
	echo '<a href="'.$permalink.'">'.$title.'</a>' ;
}
if (!empty ($next_id)) {
	$permalink = get_permalink($next_id) ;
	$title = get_the_title ($next_id) ;
	echo '<a href="'.$permalink.'">'.$title.'</a>' ;
}
?>

Many thanks Robin 🙂 A stupid question before proceeding. Will my changes, payed css etc be saved in my theme if I am testing to switch to twentytwenty and back?

[Robin W]

translated..

with the latest update there is a bug.
Each time the article is updated, a new post is created in the forum.

The update only affected a function that runs on plugin activation – but I will take a look

[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

[Robin W]

ok, we need to be sure what we are talking about.

if you have :
bbpress in dashboard>plugins
you have template files in your child theme under a folder called bbpress

then bbpress should be at the latest version
but the template files can be older, they just pull in information to display, and if they are not breaking anything, then that is fine.

[Robin W]

ok, just checking.

If you have performed the tests above with just bbpress active and a default theme, then these should appear, I can only suggest that your site is somehow corrupt.

do you get anything showing in

dashboard>tools>forums
or
dashboard>settings>forums?

My domain is forum.my_domain.com

– Subscriptions Emails -> 1: I enter hello@my_domain.com
This SMTP email work well.
– Subscriptions Emails -> 9: I tested with check/uncheck ‘Send a test topic email’ option, but after clicking on ‘Send test email(s)’, I got nothing.

[anhduc.bkhn]

Settings->bbp-style-pack->Subscriptions Emails -> 9. Send test email did not work

[Robin W]

so did the test email from Settings->bbp-style-pack->Subscriptions Emails -> 9. Send test email also work?

[anhduc.bkhn]

yes, and it worked (I tested).

[Manuel Camargo]

Hey @robin-w Tested but not working 🙁
What can be failing in your idea?

This doesn’t work either 🙁

Remove NoFollow from BBPress Posts

Will have to review the code and what’s going on with that filter nowadays

[Robin W]

runs fine on my test sites

[Robin W]

does Easy WP SMTP have an email test option?

[anhduc.bkhn]

My env:

WooCommerce version: 4.9.0
WordPress version: 5.6
PHP version: 7.4.14
MySQL version: 5.7.31

Plugin:
bbp style pack: 4.7.2
bbPress: 2.6.6
Easy WP SMTP: 1.4.4

The feature “Notify me of follow-up replies via email” does not work on my site.
I tested: go to Settings->bbp-style-pack->Subscriptions Emails -> 9. Send test email, click on ‘Send test email(s)’, but it still does not work.

Pls guide me on this.

[purityboy83]

sorry, I’d left a line of test code in which caused the user not to be selected, fixed in 4.7.7

I have also corrected the shortcode to do what it said in the documentation – so the default is ‘my profile’

so

[bsp-profile] will show ‘My Profile’ in a clickable link to the profile

[Profile label=’This is the label’] will show ‘This is the label’ in a clickable link to the profile

[Profile label=’Edit My Profile’ edit=’y’] will show ‘Edit My Profile’ in a clickable link to the edit section of profile

[uksentinel]

Thanks Robin.

Just installed and tested, shortcode [bsp-profile] creates https://uktechhub.com/forums/users/

No username at end ?

I tried three different browsers and cleared cache etc

[estakhrchi ali]

irstly I only included the fields Robin had supplied, I do not have a copy of Snitz to test either. So I commented out but didn’t remove any of the code so that it would stand out and you could update any of these as needed which you have done.

The forum ‘counts’ I think you may have incorrect in your post above:
* _bbp_topic_count – The number of topics that are ‘publicly’ visible
* _bbp_reply_count – The number of replies that are ‘publicly’ visible
* _bbp_total_topic_count – The total number of topics (includes topics that are are unapproved or hidden)
* _bbp_total_reply_count – The total number of replies (includes replies that are are unapproved or hidden)

A clearer explanation of each of these would be helpful and also are each of these fields in the FORUM_FORUM database table:
* F_TOPICS
* F_COUNT
* T_COUNT
* P_COUNT

The topic ‘counts’ is the same:ساخت استخر
* _bbp_reply_count – The number of replies that are ‘publicly’ visible
* _bbp_total_reply_count – The total number of replies (includes replies that are are unapproved or hidden)
