I think i’m starting to understand how to build your own forum themes,

But i have a question,

What does <?php do_action( 'bbp_template_notices' ); ?> do for my theme?

I’m not very good at PHP and i have search but there is none template_notice.php file also i can’t find any filter of function called like this inside a template file, so i was just asking myself what it would do for my theme?

I found something..

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

Only trying to find where those functions are.. they aren’t in my functions.php

??

So they call a function by the plugin DO_ACTION PHP code but i can’t find the template that lists all those actions-/functions.

It allows for plugins to run a function at certain places during the page generation.

So if someone has a plugin that may generate some notices to the user, then they will add a function to the bbp_template_notices action. This allows them to hook into the action and their function is run each time the do_action(‘bbp_template_notices’); is called in the theme, or rest of WP/bbp.

Adding an action is add_action(‘bbp_template_notices’, ‘funciton_name’);

I used this bbp_template_notices action hook to print my post toolbar in earlier versions of the plugin. This is because I noticed that the do_action(‘bbp_template_notices’); was (in bbp-twentyten) near the post form, so each time the post form is displayed, the template notices action is run and the post toolbar is displayed.

Also, add_action and do_action are in wp-includes/plugin.php.

Thank you…

So it’s a hook for WordPress and other plugins to work into this bbPress form..
