BBPress – forum option not showing up in my dashboard menu?

Published on April 25th, 2021 by samibz

I installed bbpress and it is activated – when I go into users there is a forum users option for every other wordpress user other than me the administrator.I did not get a welcome page. I have no option to edit my role under my users – I can do this for all the other users on my site.

I use X-theme which is supposed to support this plugin. I have a feeling this has to do with the fact that I am not listed at the keymaster, but there seems to be no way to do this.

I am not good at coding or knowing where to put code, so if it involves any please be very specific – where it needs to go, what to type in etc…

Thanking everyone in advance

bbpress registration troubleshooting

Published on April 23rd, 2021 by mballa3rdo

Hi, for my business website I’m trying to get a working forum together, I’m using WordPress.com, and I’ve got bbpress and bbpstyle pack active right now.

The issues I keep getting prevent users who do not have WordPress accounts from registering, it redirects the users to the WordPress login page and doesn’t send an e-mail.

In my Settings, if I remove the ability to login with WordPress accounts, it functions perfectly, but I lose access to editing and updating the site, I’m lost on how to get this functional.

Forum Subscription and Notifications not working

Published on April 22nd, 2021 by alisonboscolo

I have added the forum option to my website but there isn’t an option on the frontend to subscribe to the forum. I checked the backend and the box was checked to Allow Users to Subscribe to Forums or Topics. The notifications aren’t working as well. What am I doing wrong?

Adding custom taxonomies to Topic form

Published on April 22nd, 2021 by Back to Front

Hi! I’m trying to allow users to assign their topics to custom taxonomies from the front end bbpress topic form. I thought it would be cool to be allow users to sort topics in multiple ways, and not just the anarchy that comes with unhierarchical ‘tags’.

With a lot of searching on forums, I’ve managed to register the taxonomies, display them, include topics in the archives, and added inputs to the form to allow uses to select the relevant ones.

But I’m totally stuck with saving the value from the checkboxes. You can tick the box, but nothing is saved. I’m guessing I need to use wp_set_object_terms()? and hook into bbp_new_topic() to save the terms? But I have no idea how to save the value from the checkboxes in there.

Any ideas, tips, scorn, alternative suggestions are welcome. Do i need to learn more js and use AJAX to accomplish this? Or is this achievable with php and am I even close?

// Add custom taxonomies to topic form

add_action ( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_form_content', 'bbp_extra_fields');

function bbp_extra_fields() {

$value = get_post_meta( bbp_get_topic_id(), 'issue', true);
	echo '<div id="custom-meta">';
	echo'<fieldset>
        <legend>Issues</legend>';
	$issues = get_terms('issue', array('hide_empty' => 0));
	foreach ($issues as $issue) {
	echo '<span><input type="checkbox" class="issue" for="issue" value="'.$issue->slug.'"></input><label>'.$issue->name.'</label></span>';
	};
	echo '</fieldset>';

$value = get_post_meta( bbp_get_topic_id(), 'region', true);
global $region;
$region = get_terms('region', array('hide_empty' => 0));
echo'<fieldset>
        <legend>Region</legend>';
$regions = get_terms('region', array('hide_empty' => 0));
foreach ($regions as $region) {
echo '<span><input type="checkbox" class="issue" for="issue"value="'.$region->slug.'"><label>'.$region->name.'</label></span>';
};
echo '</fieldset></div>';
};

// Save the terms from the form
add_action ( 'bbp_new_topic', 'bbp_save_extra_fields', 10, 1 );
add_action ( 'bbp_edit_topic', 'bbp_save_extra_fields', 10, 1 );

function bbp_save_extra_fields($topic_id) {

  $post_id = get_the_ID();
  $category_id = $region->id;
  $taxonomy = 'region';
  wp_set_object_terms( $post_id, intval( $category_id ), $taxonomy );
};

Mentions links don’t go to the forum post (buddypress)

Published on April 21st, 2021 by nomadsland

I use Buddypress and Bbpress togather.

But when a member tags another member in the forums, it comes in their notifications with the link to view the mention. But, clicking on that takes them to the newsfeed/activity stream, not the forum post that they were tagged in.

Anyone for a solution ?

Thanks.

Remove “reply” button

Published on April 21st, 2021 by potatolove

Hi there,
i’m looking for a solution to remove the “reply” button in a topic (or otherwise a solution for closing a topic automated after it has been published).

My goal is, to just let users create a topic, which shouldn’t be possible to be replied to. I already removed the form for replies, but the button in the topic is still there (i want to get rid of it).

Thanks in advance!
