Hi, I’m a webmaster at a website that has bbPress.
And they often paste text in from another website that results in leaving a lot of formatted text. Is there a way to prevent that? It would be nice with a feature that could remove the formatted text.

Best regards,
Tinna

Hi, mostly formatting comes with copy-paste of html text. If you want to strip html from the text you can make use of some WordPress functions: wp_strip_all_tags(), convert_chars() etc …

ex:

function aa_stripped_content($content) {
    
    $content = wp_strip_all_tags($content);
    return $content;
}
add_filter ('bbp_get_topic_content', 'aa_stripped_content');

you are welcome!

you need this additional line if you want to strip replies too:

add_filter ('bbp_get_reply_content', 'aa_stripped_content');
