I’m trying to make my own nested threaded replies. Right now all the replies appear in my page, but there’s no organization to them. Is the $args method the way to go or do I need to make my own custom sql statement? I’ve got all the data in the args below, but the sort isn’t nested. Not sure how do do that.

				$args = array(
					'post_type' 		=> 'reply', // custom post type
					'posts_per_page'    => '50',
					'orderby' 		=> 'post_parent',
					'post_parent' 		=> $topic_id,

				     'meta_query' => array(
				         'relation' => 'OR',
					     array(
					 	   'key'=> $topic_id,
					    ),
					    array(
						   'key'=>'_bbp_reply_to',
						   'compare' => 'NOT EXISTS'
					   ),
				         array(
				             'key'=>'_bbp_reply_to',
				             'compare' => 'EXISTS',
				         ),
				     ),
					'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
				     'order' => 'ASC',
				);

					//global $wpdb;

				$loopReply = new WP_Query($args);

I believe I need to make either a custom reply Walker class, or a recursive function. How would I make a bbPress reply walker class and implement it?

Hey @robin-w or any other BBP mods. I’m in dire need of I believe a custom walker for my custom page’s replies. I’m stumped to the point of wanting to hire someone to do it for me. Any ideas?

I got it figured out and implemented.
