You can change the $before and $after variables to whatever you like. For example an external link before all topics:

function add_custom_content($content) {

    $topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id();
    $user_id = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id );

    if ( bbp_is_user_keymaster($user_id) ) {

            $before ='<p>This is my <a href="https://bbpress.org/">EXTERNAL LINK</a>.</p>';
            $after ='<p>TEXT AFTER</p>';
            $content = $before . $content . $after;
    }
    return $content;
}
add_filter ('bbp_get_topic_content', 'add_custom_content');

For the excerpt issue you can give a try with another priority:

function filter_the_excerpt( ) {
    return ' ';
}
add_filter( 'the_excerpt', 'filter_the_excerpt', 999, 2 );

[wpturk]

Hi, I’ve not used this plugin so I don’t know how it works.

Maybe the plugin is using the WordPress excerpt, you can try this:

add_filter( 'the_excerpt', 'filter_the_excerpt', 10, 2 );
    function filter_the_excerpt( ) {
    return ' ';
 }

Yes I got that far, not sure how to use modify the following code just for that sepecific category/forum This is the code for the discussion page

<?php

$counter++;
extract( shortcode_atts( array(

// Compose final HTML id attribute
$final_id = strlen( $id ) ? $id : ‘g1-bbp-forums-‘ . $counter;

[Robin W]

ok, I can’t help you with winscp, but what you need to achieve is the following.

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

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

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this

so line 38 says

<div class="bbp-forum-content"><?php bbp_forum_content(); ?></div>

delete this and in its place put these lines

<div class="bbp-forum-content">
		
		<?php setup_postdata(bbp_get_forum_id()) ; 
				
		$excerpt = get_the_excerpt() ;
		
		echo $excerpt ;	?>
		
</div>

This will then put the first 55 characters of your content.

Once you have achieved that, come back and I’ll show you the second part.

[Ismail]

You’re welcome all. Happy to be able to help 🙂

@wasanajones You can use get_the_excerpt( $se_post ) or just post_excerpt property of the WP_Post object:

Edit the last callback from previous code to go as this:

add_filter('bbp_get_form_topic_content', function( $body ) {
	global $se_post;
	if( $se_post ) {
		return $se_post->post_excerpt;
	}
	return $body;
});

I did not test this but I am sure it should work.

Best,
Samuel

@julia_b (If you’re still waiting for a reply!) – you need to put this in your functions.php file, more info here: https://codex.bbpress.org/functions-files-and-child-themes-explained/

This works great, thanks so much for sharing this code!

I’ve also managed, with very little tweaking, to get this displaying replies under topics within the topics list (this is very rough with some bits commented out but pasting here in case it helps someone)

// https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-to-add-latest-reply-or-topic-to-forum-list/
function jagreplies_add_last_reply() { { 
 $jagreplies_last_reply_id = bbp_get_topic_last_reply_id();
 //$jagreplies_last_topic_id = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_id();

$new_args = array(
    'post_type'=> 'reply',
    'p' => $jagreplies_last_reply_id
);
$post_title_args = array(
    'post_type'=> 'topic',
    'p' => $jagreplies_last_topic_id
);
$other_args = array(
    'post_type'=> 'topic',
    'p' => $jagreplies_last_topic_id
);
$jagreplies_query = new WP_Query( $post_title_args );
$nest_query = new WP_Query( $new_args );
$another_nest_query = new WP_Query( $other_args );

   if ( $jagreplies_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $jagreplies_query->have_posts() ) : $jagreplies_query->the_post();
     $this_post_id=$post->ID;
     $this_post_permalink= get_permalink(); ?>   
                             
     <!--<a href="<?php //echo $this_post_permalink; ?>">-->

<?php endwhile; 
   endif; wp_reset_query();

   if ( $nest_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $nest_query->have_posts() ) : $nest_query->the_post();
     $this_post_id=$post->ID;
     //$this_post_title= get_the_title();
     //$this_post_content= get_the_excerpt(); 
     $this_post_content= the_content(); ?>

     <h1><?php echo $this_post_title; ?></h1></a>
     <div class="the_content"><?php echo $this_post_content; ?></div>
                     
   <?php endwhile;
elseif ( $another_nest_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $another_nest_query->have_posts() ) : $another_nest_query->the_post();
     $this_post_id=$post->ID;
     //$this_post_title= get_the_title();
     //$this_post_content= get_the_excerpt();
     $this_post_content= the_content(); ?>   
                                  
     <!--<h1><?php //echo $this_post_title; ?></h1></a>-->
     <div class="the_content"><?php echo $this_post_content; ?></div>
                     
   <?php endwhile; 
   endif; 
    }} 
// Hook into action
add_action('bbp_theme_after_topic_freshness_author','jagreplies_add_last_reply');

This is extremely useful in creating a ‘Facebook’ style site where all content can be displayed on one single page (I know, Facebook, yuck! But it’s what ‘the people’ like)

Now I just need to try to get the bbpress Ajax Replies plugin working in conjunction with this so people can post and reply from that single page. Interesting!

**edited to add – if using my code above you may just want to change the last line ‘bbp_theme_after_topic_freshness_author’ to a different hook depending on where you want to display it, I am using customised templates but I’m not sure how it would look loading the content there if using the default templates

[galiulinr]

With the CSS does not suit me, do not double content I need to cut in one place. I found the file loop-single-forum.php <div class=”bbp-forum-content”><?php bbp_forum_content(); ?></div> if it would be replaced by the_excerpt, the decision to come to me. I want to see short description

[Robkk]

really any plugin that has an included insertable template tag will work.

im going to use jetpack sharing as an example .

first i take every instance of each default area jetpack sharing shows.(also jetpack likes)

function jptweak_remove_share() {
    remove_filter( 'the_content', 'sharing_display',19 );
    remove_filter( 'the_excerpt', 'sharing_display',19 );
    if ( class_exists( 'Jetpack_Likes' ) ) {
        remove_filter( 'the_content', array( Jetpack_Likes::init(), 'post_likes' ), 30, 1 );
    }
}
 
add_action( 'loop_start', 'jptweak_remove_share' );

and then i could just display it anywhere on the reply. in loop-single-reply.php

with this

if ( function_exists( 'sharing_display' ) ) {
    sharing_display( '', true );
}

this code also removes it from content like posts and pages. but you can just manually insert it into your wordpress templates to with the above code.

[Yukon Cornelius]

update: this was undesirable because the link to the reply was going to the reply itself, which is just a single post of the ‘reply’ custom post type. I have created this dodgy hack of the above code so the permalink for the replies is still the topic permalink. I’m sure there are a million better ways to do this, but it does the job for me so i thought i’d share the updated version.

function jag_add_last_reply() { { 
 $jag_last_reply_id = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_id();
 $jag_last_topic_id = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_id();

$new_args = array(
    'post_type'=> 'reply',
    'p' => $jag_last_reply_id
);
$post_title_args = array(
    'post_type'=> 'topic',
    'p' => $jag_last_topic_id
);
$other_args = array(
    'post_type'=> 'topic',
    'p' => $jag_last_topic_id
);
$jag_query = new WP_Query( $post_title_args );
$nest_query = new WP_Query( $new_args );
$another_nest_query = new WP_Query( $other_args );

   if ( $jag_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $jag_query->have_posts() ) : $jag_query->the_post();
     $this_post_id=$post->ID;
     $this_post_permalink= get_permalink(); ?>   
                             
     <a href="<?php echo $this_post_permalink; ?>">

<?php endwhile; 
   endif; wp_reset_query();

   if ( $nest_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $nest_query->have_posts() ) : $nest_query->the_post();
     $this_post_id=$post->ID;
     $this_post_title= get_the_title();
     $this_post_content= get_the_excerpt(); ?>
                             
     <h1><?php echo $this_post_title; ?></h1></a>
     <div class="the_content"><?php echo $this_post_content; ?></div>
                     
   <?php endwhile;
elseif ( $another_nest_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $another_nest_query->have_posts() ) : $another_nest_query->the_post();

add_action('bbp_theme_after_forum_description','jag_add_last_reply');

[Yukon Cornelius]

I spent so long trawling google for an answer to this question, so i am sharing what i came up with. It might not be beautiful code (i patched it together from a number of sources), but it works for me.

Basically, i have a list of forums on my forum home page. I just wanted to show the latest post within each forum as a teaser below the forum description – not just the title, but the excerpt, too. I can’t believe there’s nothing out there explaining how to do this. It seems like a pretty obvious format for the forum index.

The following snippet will output the latest reply, with post title and post link below the forum description. If there are no replies, it will output the latest topic instead.

function jag_add_last_reply() { { 
 $jag_last_reply_id = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_id();
 $jag_last_topic_id = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_id();
$new_args = array(
    'post_type'=> 'reply',
    'p' => $jag_last_reply_id
);
$other_args = array(
    'post_type'=> 'topic',
    'p' => $jag_last_topic_id
);
 
$nest_query = new WP_Query( $new_args );
$another_nest_query = new WP_Query( $other_args );
 
   if ( $nest_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $nest_query->have_posts() ) : $nest_query->the_post();
     $this_post_id=$post->ID;
     $this_post_title= get_the_title();
     $this_post_content= get_the_excerpt();
     $this_post_permalink= get_permalink(); ?>   
                             
     <a href="<?php echo $this_post_permalink; ?>"><h1><?php echo $this_post_title; ?></h1></a>
     <div class="the_content"><?php echo $this_post_content; ?></div>
                     
   <?php endwhile;
elseif ( $another_nest_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $another_nest_query->have_posts() ) : $another_nest_query->the_post();
     $this_post_id=$post->ID;
     $this_post_title= get_the_title();
     $this_post_content= get_the_content();
     $this_post_permalink= get_permalink(); ?>   
                             
     <a href="<?php echo $this_post_permalink; ?>"><h1><?php echo $this_post_title; ?></h1></a>
     <div class="the_content"><?php echo $this_post_content; ?></div>
                     
   <?php endwhile; 
   endif; 
    }} 
// Hook into action
add_action('bbp_theme_after_forum_description','jag_add_last_reply');

Just put this in your theme’s functions.php and it should do the trick. Haven’t figured out how to spit out multiple posts and replies for each forum yet, but this is all i needed. Good luck.

[Stephen Edgar]

If when you decide to come back to this you’ll want to use the_excerpt

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt

There are varios examples scattered throught this site also

https://bbpress.org/forums/search/the_excerpt/

[Stephen Edgar]

You won’t need this text and/or value that you imported.

You will have to create your own templates by copying bbPress templates to your theme directory:

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

You would then use the_excerpt rather than the_content to output only ‘x’ words from each topic/reply

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt

There are a few people who have played around using the_excerpt and bbPress, have a good look around the site to see how and what they did:

https://bbpress.org/forums/search/the_excerpt/

[Stephen Edgar]

I have a follow up question on the above topic. In the old BB we had each topic showed with a short summary field of the post content (usually just the first X characters of the content). Is there a way to do that with bbPress Forum topics? I do not see any existing widget that does this. In fact, is there even a field mapping for such a thing?

In WordPress terms this is known as ‘the_excerpt’ and is a function that will only show ‘x’ words of a post, this is not something you can transfer, it is a ‘display’ function in WordPress.

Oops, forgot another item. I want to bring in topic tags as well. How do I do that.

These are a little tricky mainly because understanding how they are implemented in WordPress is not an easy task as they are distributed throughout three tables.

Upload a csv file to http://gist.github.com or http://pastebin.com with a couple of examples of how your data currently has ‘tags’ associated to the topics and I will try to come up with something that is a little clearer than mud for you 😉

[SquarePenguin]

Hello,

Could anyone point me in the right direction so I can identify the filters used in bbpress so that I might remove wptexturize?

I have identified those required for WordPress itself, but bbpress appears to use different filters. The WordPress ones I successfully used are:

remove_filter( ‘the_title’, ‘wptexturize’ );
remove_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wptexturize’ );
remove_filter( ‘the_excerpt’, ‘wptexturize’ );
remove_filter( ‘comment_text’, ‘wptexturize’ );

Which I added to functions.php of a child theme.

I then identified what I thought were the required filters in bbpress from here:

http://etivite.com/api-hooks/bbpress/trigger/apply_filters/bbp_get_topic_content/

…and added the following to functions.php to no effect:

remove_filter( ‘bbp_get_reply_content’, ‘wptexturize’);
remove_filter( ‘bbp_get_topic_content’, ‘wptexturize’);

These filters do not work, so I assume they are not the correct ones. Any ideas what the correct filters are?

Thank you!

Wordpress version: 3.5.1
bbPress version: 2.3

Apologies if this is considered cross-posting, as this appears as a reply to another thread (but that other thread title isn’t similar). The other thread is… http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/non-functional-index-page-when-bbpress-2-1rc4-is-used-with-woothemes-canvas-5-05/#post-133638

Ok, so newbie here who knows html and understands coding but is really keen to not screw up the site that someone else has built for me (so apologies if the answer is above and I’m not seeing it).

The site is http://www.heavenlyz.com and, I think, I’m using the “Nollie” theme.

I’ve installed bbpress, created a couple of forums and – via the great info on this thread – created a page called “Boardroom”, into which I’ve inserted the “[bbp-forum-index]” shortcode. Hey presto, after much head scratching, I can now see a forum index on http://www.heavenlyz.com/boardroom/…woohoo

But, my next challenge is to be able to open one of the forums shown. Am struggling with this.

Having searched, the most relevant answer seems to be… http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/non-functional-index-page-when-bbpress-2-1rc4-is-used-with-woothemes-canvas-5-05/#post-133638

If you think there is a better (read “easier” 🙂 solution, then please suggest but if not, please read on…

Because I am using the Nollie theme – I think – the parent/ child argument in that thread doesn’t apply, so am looking at changing the root page.php only (to be honest, I wouldn’t know how to work out whether the child page exists/ how to find the child page).

In the thread linked to above, Lab says

Next, change the entry div as shown, to modify the current conditional check to ALSO see if you are on a bbPress page. Without this extra bit, it assumes that you want the page to show the_excerpt() on every page other than single.php …. not true. We want full content on bbPress pages as well

But my page.php says…

ID, ‘mfn-post-layout’, true) ) {
case ‘left-sidebar’:
$class = ‘ with_aside aside_left’;
break;
case ‘right-sidebar’:
$class = ‘ with_aside aside_right’;
break;
default:
$class = ”;
break;
}
?>

Where’s the “entry div”? Apologies if this is a laughably stupid question.

All help appreciated. N.b. As I’m learning, to start with, I’d rather keep the changes simple and effective rather than complex and golden.

[Sami Keijonen]

There should be `the_excerpt()` or `the_content()` doesn’t return anything.

[eklay]

I’ve found the offending filter: ‘bbp_replace_the_content’

The function bbp_replace_the_content() hijacks the content of any post, regardless of which loop it is in, based simply on whether the page is also the forum archive or topic archive page.

I was able to get the excerpt for my custom loop, while still preserving the Forum archive on the same page, by using remove_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘bbp_replace_the_content’ ) before the_excerpt() and add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘bbp_replace_the_content’ ) after.

[eklay]

@johnnypea – Did you ever get this figured out? Using the_excerpt() anywhere on a BBPress page returns Forum content, even when called within a non-forum custom loop, and then completely clears the $post object… This is very frustrating.

[LabSecrets]

You have several issues going on here, but they are directly related to your theme. As is very common, it appears to me that your theme has a conditional statement in the template file that builds archive pages. As such, it’s treating the content for bbPress forums as excerpts, as well as applying some unwanted styling.

Have you tried to build a page using the shortcode method? If so, what was the result? If you found it worked properly, then the issue as suggested above, and you could try to modify your theme or child-theme files to add a similar conditional that looks for bbPress and forces it to use the_content() instead of the_excerpt(). See: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/non-functional-index-page-when-bbpress-2-1rc4-is-used-with-woothemes-canvas-5-05/

If this page is being built with shortcodes (I don’t think it is from what I see) then what is the result if you try the default forum index method? We outline both methods in our step by step video here: http://labzip.com/the-definitive-guide-to-buddypress-bbpress-configuration/

We’ll get you there… 😉

 

 

[LabSecrets]

Hi Gang,

well…. this one through me for a loop today as well, when moving our WooThemes Canvas for bbPress & BuddyPress site for a test drive on bbPress 2.2 ( http://labsecrets.com/demo/canvas-commerce )

The individual forums would work fine, but the main forum index was rendering what looked like a post excerpt, with everything jumbled into a single paragraph.

Solution was actually rather simple. If you are using a child-theme in Canvas (you ARE using a child-theme I hope?? 😉  ) simply make a copy of the content-page.php file from parent, and put it into your child-theme folder.

Next, change the entry div as shown, to modify the current conditional check to ALSO see if you are on a bbPress page. Without this extra bit, it assumes that you want the page to show the_excerpt() on every page other than single.php …. not true. We want full content on bbPress pages as well 😉

With this simple mod, all is well and now the native forums index works, and so does building a custom page with shortcode. Ta da!

I figured it out. It had something do with me calling the_excerpt_rss in my header.php. removed it, works perfectly!

Hi everyone. I’ve been trying to display posts from the forum on a static home page so that it gives the appearance of a blog. Basically, I’m using the tewntyeleven theme and I’m using the showcase.php template to display the forum entries.

you can see what I’m going for here.. http://test.objectsinmotion.org

So far, I’ve managed to modify it so that super stickies are put in the featured slideshow. The forum posts are displayed properly, and I’ve managed to pull the topic tags. One of the things I’ve been having a lot of trouble with is displaying the forum a topic is posted in as a category. Normally there is a line of text below the topic excerpt that says, “posted in (category name)” . But it seems that nothing I have tried so far is working. In fact, whenever I try to call the forum title, is displays the topic title instead.

I’m not a programmer, and I know next to nothing about php, I’ve been doing a lot of reading, and trying to learn as much as I can, but I’m just running into a brick wall here. Any help anyone could offer would be much appreciated.

Showcase.php uses content.php to display all that meta data. right now it looks like this..

<?php

/**

* The default template for displaying content

*

* @package WordPress

* @subpackage Twenty_Eleven

* @since Twenty Eleven 1.0

*/

?>



<article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>

Other things on my to-do list include making the comments section show number of forum replies instead of number of wordpress comments, and changing the author link so that it goes to the bbpress profile of that user instead of a wordpress post archive.

For now though, I’m hoping that someone out there can help me with the “category” issue. Anyone have any ideas?

[Mr. Salas]

Hello,

i used wp 3.2.1 and a theme called wp-basis,

but after installing bbpress no Forum content is visible.

There is some generated forum-text in the header of the site

“<meta name=”description” content=”Topic: DISKUSSION ZUM FILM …etc”

below is the code of my header.php

“<meta name=”description” content=”<?php if ( is_single() ) { wp_title(‘-‘, true, ‘right’); echo strip_tags( get_the_excerpt() ); } elseif ( is_page() ) { wp_title(‘-‘, true, ‘right’); echo strip_tags( get_the_excerpt() ); } else { bloginfo(‘description’); } ?>” />”

i hope somebody can help.

thx and kind regards

Daniel
