The email that bbPress sends out when a user posts a new reply in a topic has the link to the reply, and then tells you that you can unsubscribe in the topic page. I think it would be good if it had an unsubscribe link in the email itself, so users can just click that link and would be unsubscribed instead of having to go to the forum, possibly logging in, and then finding the unsubscribe button.

Published on November 27th, 2012 by rsanchez1No filter for bbp_current_user_can_publish_topics() ?
Published on November 27th, 2012 by MichaelHi — I’m using v2.2.2 and hooking into a few of the bbp_current_user_* permissions checks in template-tags.php, and I noticed what I think may be a bug. Or maybe it’s a feature. 😉
The function bbp_current_user_can_publish_forums() applies a filter of ‘bbp_current_user_can_publish_forums’ on the last line of the function.
I noticed that function bbp_current_user_can_publish_topics() applies the same filter of ‘bbp_current_user_can_publish_forums’ — is that what is intended?
All of the other bbp_current_user_can_* functions have their own respective filters, so  bbp_current_user_can_publish_topics() looks like the odd man out.  Shouldn’t the last line in the function look like:
// Allow access to be filtered
return (bool) apply_filters( 'bbp_current_user_can_publish_topics', $retval );

Templates and WP widget
Published on November 27th, 2012 by HistoryHouseIf someone could just guide me please (I’m returning to bbPress after a confused time with it pre-plugin days).
Plug-in installed OK and it was easy (thanks!). The forum is using my blog page layout which has a widget controlling the right sidebar (my own theme design adapted from blankslate).
http://www.historyhouse.co.uk/historynews/
The test page works fine (apart from it’s too wide – but I can solve that.)
Problem is I want it to have its own unique page template (not using the sidebar widget). Probably something like this template I created.
http://www.historyhouse.co.uk/historynews/history-of-ashen-my-ancestors
In my stumbling I thought a child theme may have been the answer so I looked the below page but the bbpress version number is not the same. Besides it didn’t seem to work for me.
https://codex.bbpress.org/legacy/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/
So in a nut shell. How can I make it use the template in my second example?
Thanks in advance and be gentle with me 😉
What's the simplest way to have a forum show up in the Navigation Bar/Menu?
Published on November 27th, 2012 by TheatreadminHELP! I have been searching everywhere for help on how to do this, and I can’t seem to find anything that actually helps me. I have a forum made, but I really want it to show up in the navigation bar as a ‘page’ so the public can easily access it. I am using the ZeeStyle theme, WordPress 3.4.2, and bbPress 2.2.
I am pulling out my hair because I’ve been looking for days on how to do this and nothing has helped. If someone out there can help me, I will jump for joy and be extremely thankful!
Oh, and please try to give me the simplest way possible, because I am new at this website making thing!
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
Setting the title of the forums
Published on November 27th, 2012 by vdekHi, I’ve done searching and couldn’t find anything related specifically to my issue with bbpress… I’m running the latest bbpress with WordPress 3.4.2 for my forum on my blog.
My forums are located here: http://wrtapps.com/forums/
The problem is the title of the forums page below the menu bar. It shows the title as “General discussion” which so happens to be the last forum page I saved in my dashboard. Previously it was showing the title as “Troubleshooting”… How do I change this to a custom title?
Thanks!
how to create additonal fields for user profile
Published on November 27th, 2012 by phoenixoliviaCan anyone tell me to go about creating additional fields for my users to fill in upon signing up? Right now users only seem to need to provide a name and an email address. I would like to create a database of users’ addresses, phone numbers, profession… things like that.
So how to I make it available for users to add this type of information when they sign up?
I’m using the most recent versions of WP and BBpress as of Nov 27 2012
Thanks in advance for any help.
New Forum Meta data
Published on November 27th, 2012 by wadams92101When new forums are created, they display with an attribution to the forum creator. That is not something I want for forums; topics yes but not forums. Is this being done by bbPress or is it my theme (Genesis – News) doing it?
Problem with translation
Published on November 26th, 2012 by rogerhnnHi, I am having a problem with bbPress since 2.1 with the translation.
Some parts of the plugin dont get the correct translation like:
– Admin area
Forum => All Forums
=> New Forum
Topics => All topics
=> New Topic
Replies => All Replies
=> New Replies
“Replies Created” in user profile
Widget in admin area:
Discussions Users & Moderation
1 Fórum 3 Usuários
1 Topic 0 Hidden Topic
0 Replies 0 Hidden Reply
1 Topic Tag 0 Empty Topic Tag
The other parts are fine, but these dont load the translation. Any help?
Thanks
Strange Visibility issue
Published on November 26th, 2012 by royhoI have a category set to visibility:private and have 5 forums under this category which 4 of them are set to hidden and 1 is set to private.
So from the above settings, a user with participant role should be able to get to the private forum but this does not work. They can’t even see it.
Is anyone seeing this issue?
Lost Keymaster after using the repair tool: remap existing users…
Published on November 26th, 2012 by royhoSo I just installed the latest bbPress 2.2.2 and see that all my users have no role set for the forum so I then proceed to use the remap tool to set them a default of participant. This all worked fine however, it also switched my admin account to participant also instead of keymaster. So my question is how do we apply the keymaster role back to the admin?
