I want to show more than 50 topics on a forum on the front page, if I click on the forum it will list more than 50 but only 50 show up on the front page,
Hope this makes sense, if you look at my site (wateratairports.com) Vietnam is not on the front page but if you click on “Countries” it is at the end.

I found the following but that does not work.

// filter to show more than 50 forums on the index page
function bbp_increase_forum_per_page( $args = array() ) {
$args[‘posts_per_page’] = get_option( ‘_bbp_forums_per_page’, 100 );
return $args;
}
add_filter( ‘bbp_before_has_forums_parse_args’, ‘bbp_increase_forum_per_page’ );

I have bbp style pack and under forum display there is a line 11. No. Forums Per Page
Default : 50 I have changed that to 100 but that does not seem to work either.

without testing, I suspect this will work

// filter to show more than 50 topics on a forum
 function bbp_increase_topic_per_page( $args = array() ) {
 $args[‘posts_per_page’] = 100 ;
 return $args;
 }
 add_filter( ‘bbp_before_has_topics_parse_args’, ‘bbp_increase_topic_per_page’ );

Hi Robin,
Thanks but that does not work,

Also I have changed the line 11 in bbp style pack as above back to default it knocks the list under Countries back to 50 so not including Vietnam.

I’ll take a further look tomorrow

[@robin-w Moderator 5 years, 11 months ago]

ok,try this- same code but different “‘” !!

// filter to show more than 50 topics on a forum
 function bbp_increase_topic_per_page( $args = array() ) {
 $args['posts_per_page'] = 100 ;
 return $args;
 }
 add_filter( 'bbp_before_has_topics_parse_args', 'bbp_increase_topic_per_page' );

sorry, no, still not working

[@robin-w Moderator 5 years, 11 months ago]

where are you putting this function ?

[@clivesmith Participant 5 years, 11 months ago]

In the child theme functions.php, I have tried it on its own in case another function is messing with it but it still does not work. Thanks for your help

[@robin-w Moderator 5 years, 11 months ago]

hmm – can’t really suggest what is going wrong, works on my test site

[@clivesmith Participant 5 years, 11 months ago]

OK thanks, I have tried deactivating nearly all the plugins just left bbpress / style pack and it is still the same, also as I said chopped the functions file.

[@clivesmith Participant 5 years, 11 months ago]

doh sorry just realized why it does not work, it is not the topics but the sub forums that are only showing 50.

[@robin-w Moderator 5 years, 11 months ago]

// filter to show more than 50 sub forums on a forum
 function bbp_increase_subforums_per_page( $args = array() ) {
 $args['posts_per_page'] = 100 ;
 return $args;
 }
 add_filter( 'bbp_before_forum_get_subforums_parse_args', 'bbp_increase_subforums_per_page' );
