After updating to BBpress 2.1 the GD BBpress tools “quote” feature started to copy the reply post’s contents that I wanted to quote inside the reply form box (It was working). In my opinion, this is a very important feature to have in a large forums and I was very content that it finally worked. Now, recently it has stopped working for whatever reason–I try to click “Quote” but nothing occurs at all. I’m not conversant in tracking the error with Firebug so for someone who does know how to root out the source of the problem so if anyone wants a stab at trying Ill give you a link to one of my topic pages and an account to post.

Has anyone ran into this problem? Or does it work for you?

bbpTopicJS is not defined.
Line 23 inside topic.js

Good luck!

I’m stumped. lol

Do I have to call the script? :L I have no idea.. what to do.

I found this:

    if ( bbp_is_single_topic() )
        wp_enqueue_script( 'bbp_topic', $this->url . 'js/topic.js', array( 'wp-lists' ), $this->version, true );

Am I close ? :/
Okay now I do believe that my theme is causing the problem since I switched themes and it started to work. I have more work to do.

Is your theme functions.php file calling any javascript files?

[@dnbrawler Participant 12 years, 6 months ago]

It’s calling JQuery scripts–the only one I could find is this one:wp_enqueue_script( 'bp-js', BP_PLUGIN_URL . '/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/global.js', array( 'jquery' ) );
I tried to implement the topic.js many times It’s just not working :/

What happens if you remove that? (copying it so you can easily put it back afterwards).

[@dnbrawler Participant 12 years, 6 months ago]

Still won’t work.

I went back to the twentyten theme for further testing and found that after removing the entire bbpress-functions file the quoting feature still worked. So my problem from what I perceive isn’t in the functions? Now I’m confused.
I’m going to take a fresh GD BBpress tools plugin download again and see if that works.

Hi. I have just migrated my Buddypress legacy Group forums to bbPress using the guide here:
https://codex.buddypress.org/user/buddypress-site-administration/migrating-from-old-forums-to-bbpress-2/
and forums seem to be working

I tried out the GD BBpress tools and quote/signature function is not working

Can anyone please give some tips?

@palmdoc I would suggest you ask that same question in their support forums https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/gd-bbpress-tools
