I think this has what you need
bbPress Toolkit
Hmmm, I do have this plugin installed but couldn’t find the way. I need to go over the documentation again. Thank you.
just looked, yes that seems to only apply to new users
Yup, I already have that option turned on. Now I still don’t know what to do with 500+ Subscribers who are not subscribed to the forums. Any ideas would be appreciated.
This code (untested) should subscribe all current users to forum ID 3
$list = get_users();
if (empty (get_option ('rew_done')) {
foreach ($list as $user) {
$user_id = $user=>ID ;
$forum_id = 3 ;
bbp_add_user_forum_subscription( $user_id, $forum_id ) ;
}
update_option ('rew_done' , 'done' ) ;
}
Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use
https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/ and load a page, then remove it
Thank you so much for the snippets. I am no developer and have been struggling with this, to be honest.
I think line 2 is missing a closing ‘)’ and
Getting a parse error on line 4. Is ‘=>’ supposed to be ‘->’ or something else is upsetting the parser? Any help would be appreciated.
agree line 2, and line 4 should be
$user_id = $user->ID ;
Thank you! I just ran it and worked beautifully (as far as I can tell)!
@robin-w I was able to use this code to subscribe all of our members to our main forum and it worked great. Thank you! I have since tried to run it to subscribe them to our other two forums and it’s not working. Any idea what I can do to get them subscribed to the others?
the update_option bit stops it being run more than once.
so to run it a 2nd time use
$list = get_users();
if (empty (get_option ('rew_done2')) {
foreach ($list as $user) {
$user_id = $user->ID ;
$forum_id = 3 ;
bbp_add_user_forum_subscription( $user_id, $forum_id ) ;
}
update_option ('rew_done2' , 'done2' ) ;
}
Hmm, I tried below updating the forum id and it didn’t work.
$list = get_users();
if (empty (get_option (‘rew_done2’)) {
foreach ($list as $user) {
$user_id = $user->ID ;
$forum_id = 327 ;
bbp_add_user_forum_subscription( $user_id, $forum_id ) ;
}
update_option (‘rew_done’ , ‘done2’ ) ;
}
update_option (‘rew_done’ , ‘done2’ ) ;
should read
update_option (‘rew_done2’ , ‘done2’ ) ;
I tried updating the line and it causes a critical error to the site. I have been working on a staging site so it hasn’t been a huge problem. I would really appreciate any additional help you can provide though. If we can’t find a way to run the script we will have to manually subscribe everyone and that will take ages…
can you post the code you are using
