Just wondering if BBPress has the capability of adding posts to the forum via email.

Replies are missing on the frontend

Published on June 7th, 2022 by andreiandronachi95

Hello everyone! I have a problem with one topic and I don’t know what to do. That specific topic have 3 replies(2 from admin and 1 from the user that post it). If I enter in admin I can see those replies, if I enter in db I also cand see them, but on the frontend is empty. Firstly I thought all the replies are hidden but they are not render on the frontend. I watched on other topics and everything works fine. What can it be? Thank you!
If I put
`
$a = array(
‘post_type’ => ‘reply’,
‘post_parent’ => bbp_get_topic_id()
);
$b = get_posts($a);
var_dump($b);
`
On others topics I can see the replies but on that one is an empty array

Display NAMES of Private Forums to unregistered

Published on June 4th, 2022 by biztips

I set the home page of my site to display the forums. There will be public forums.

However, when new (unregistered) site visitors see these Forum names, I also want them to see the NAMES OF PRIVATE FORUMS.

I’m thinking that if they see other topics that interest them they might register. Is that possible?

Have bbPress installed on new site, step4profitforum.com, version 6.6

Thank you!

Safari issue + removal of “bbPress Forum” text

Published on June 3rd, 2022 by davidnewth

Having a couple of issues with a Non-Profit website I am working on. TBH I HAVE VIRTUALLY NO EXPERIENCE OF WEB STUFF.

1st issue i have is the when using safari the login and the forum topic input does not show up. Seems to work correctly in Opera.

2nd issue on the Forum page I would like to remove the text “bbPress Forum”

3rd issue would like to increase all forum text by 15-20%

Apologises if these are all stupid questions.

The site is not live at the moment (still lots of content to be added) but can be found at https://1888hh.live-website.com/forums

Many thanks in advance.

Customizing “Topic” and “Tag”???

Published on June 2nd, 2022 by diannekrause

Hi,

I apologize if this answer is elsewhere but there is SO much here to search and dig through and much of what I’m finding is too technical for me to understand, especially the things in the documentation I found.

What I’ve been asked to do is customize where it says “Topic” and “Tag” on the topic page. We actually want Topic to say what we’d like them to type there and we’d like “Tag” to actually say “Strategy” where the users can type in a specific strategy we are asking them to learn about (We are an educational PD company and we’re using BBpress in conjunction with the Lifter LMS we’ve built into WordPress). We also want it so the “notify me of followup replies” is checked of by default.

MY own personal knowledge of WordPress is primarily GUI but I’ve done some things in the “customize” area of WordPress with the help of Lifter Support. SO, when things are telling me to deal with .php files (like I see in the documentation), I have no idea what to do.

Is there someone who can tell me how to customize these things? Is there bbPress SUPPORT where I can put in a ticket and get hand-held help like I do with Lifter?

Any and all help is appreciated as I have been asked to do these things that I have no idea how to do.

Thank you!

Search function returns 404

Published on May 27th, 2022 by aolaru

Hi.
Searching in the forums with a string containing a slash leads to a server 404 page: https://ureaknowhow.com/forums/search/

Not sure what to make of it. I checked all Setting -> Forums slugs for trailing slahes, all good there.

How to specify template for auto-generated Forum pages

Published on May 26th, 2022 by ferule

Hi all,

I am using Thrive Theme Builder, which has a set of templates (or you can easily create your own) that you can apply to different pages, etc. One nice feature is that they are “smart” in that you can set your theme colors and then if you change them, they’ll change on all of the pages in your site that use the smart templates.

It’s easy to specify which Thrive Theme Builder template to use for pages that show up in the wp Pages list. However, BBpress forum pages seem to be generated on demand. Right now, if I click on a forum, it us using a random (but probably the first alphabetical) template (the default “Audio post”). Which needless to say, is not what I want and is ugly to boot.

Is there a way to specify which Thrive Theme Builder template to use for these pages? I am not a coder (at all) and I’m highly leery of poking around with php files and so on, especially as they might get overwritten or broken by wp or Thrive or BBpress updates down the line. So what I really want is a setting that says, “choose this Theme Builder template for the forum pages.”

Thanks!

Private Forums

Published on May 26th, 2022 by ssk1220

Hi

I have BBPress installed and wish to make one of our Forums only visible & accessible by a few people. Please advise the best way to do this? I have seen other posts on here regarding this but they are over 10 years old so I am assuming the technology has moved on since then.

I see that there is the option to set the Visibility to Private but what about the access?

I’d appreciate your advice on this.

Thank you
