The breadcrumb trail at the top of our forums look like this:

About us › Forums › Privat: Our association

“About us” being the title of the page set as our start page in WordPress. Shouldn’t this be the website title instead? How can we change it?

[John James Jacoby]

This is by design, since that’s the title of that page.

I don’t follow – didn’t I leave that page when I clicked “Forum” in the menu and went to mydomain.com/forum/ ?

Hey Jobjorn,

I’m still pretty green with bbPress but I think you could make a plugin to modify that base page title. I think the function you may want is this..

function bbp_get_forum_archive_title( $title = '' ) {

global $bbp;



// If no title was passed

if ( empty( $title ) ) {



// Set root text to page title

if ( $page = bbp_get_page_by_path( $bbp->root_slug ) ) {

$title = get_the_title( $page->ID );



// Default to forum post type name label

} else {

$fto    = get_post_type_object( bbp_get_forum_post_type() );

$title  = $fto->labels->name;

}

}



return apply_filters( 'bbp_get_forum_archive_title', $title );

}

It’s located in the bbp-forum-template.php

I’ve released a small bbPress Plugin called “String Swap” where you can easily change a few breadcrumb parameters as well as some other strings for the frontend. — bbPress 2.1.2+ required!

You can check it out here:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-string-swap/

After installing/activating, look on the bbPress Settings page where there is a new section then 🙂

Hope this helps some users 🙂
