bbpress has a large number of do_action() statements. I am familiar with this at the wordpress level but I am unable to locate where bbpress registers a large number of these actions. Specifically I would like to change the behaviour of:

do_action( ‘bbp_template_before_forums_loop’ );
If someone could point me in the right direction that would be greatly appreciated.

no idea why the forum is saying I posted this a year ago. It was only minutes.

The actions are used in the templates held in

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/

I’ve already run a full text search through all files includes in the bbpress plugin. No files contain a reference to ‘bbp_template_before_forums_loop’, except loop-forums.php where it is called from.

[@robin-w Moderator 10 years, 9 months ago]

do_action( ‘bbp_template_before_forums_loop’ );
does nothing !

It is the hook onto which you would add an action using a function and an “add_action” command.

If you want to alter behaviour, the it is probably the function after it that you would want to filter.

Come back and describe what you’re trying to achieve and I’ll try and help further
