Hi there, here is my site: https://www.masters-of-photography.com/forums/

Note that the individual forum link goes to a blank page: https://www.masters-of-photography.com/forums/photography/

And the individual topics links also go to a blank page: https://www.masters-of-photography.com/forums/topic/what-types-of-cameras-do-youtubers-use/

BBPress Version 2.6.11
WordPress 6.6.2
Running a custom child theme of Astra.

bbPress has been translated into many languages. See https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress/

Is there a cookie I can set to make bbPress dynamically switch from say the English language to the French language?

I have a website in several different languages.

Hi, I am using the bbPress integration with BuddyPress, so that when new BuddyPress groups are created, their respective associated forum is also created. I would like these forums to already have some topics created by default (such as rules, general chat, …), so that the user does not have to create them manually. Although the user can create more topics later, but I would like the forum to already include some topics by default when the group is created. Is it possible to achieve this? Thanks.

If you look on the linked page and see a big white block, the oEmbed on my site isn’t working (when someone makes a post in bbPress, it automatically embeds it as shown on the page, but the link doesn’t work). Everything looks right, but the link doesn’t work. I can’t figure out what I can do to fix it or disable it. I’ve turned to a friend who knows how to code (I don’t) and she said that her bbPress installation has the same issue.

Here’s a page with an example:

Kirk Hunter Farewell Sale

Thanks for your help.

A forum user notified me that he cannot post a new topic. He writes the the title, the post body, the tags, and then on clicking on ‘send’ the page gets refreshed on the topics list view, and at the bottom he can still view the post contents still in the form, with the form prefilled with the data already entered.

His role is participant, and for the sake of testing I faked a participant role to check if the role was blocked. It is not. I managed to post a new toping without hassle.
The Forum is open.

Where or how can I get more details about the process? What’s blocking, or what errors are returned, maybe they are hidden. Any suggestion?

v2.6.11 and wp6.6.2 with following plugins installed

Plugins:
bbp style pack
bbp user ranking
bbppress notify (no-spam)
GD bbPress Toolbox Pro

Thank you very much

Hi!

I though a reply should always be attached to a topic… Why do I find “orphaned” reply in search results and on website (recent replies links in sidebar widgets go to replies that shows up without the parent topic). And how do I fix that? Because I want to see topic with replies attached to them, not replies showing up like article.

Thanks in advance,

Kindly.

Hi there we are trying to make BBPress work on our site, www.adventurecountrytracks.com we use Memberpress and Elemntor, unfortunately, we cannot finish the design work, even though we have used some of the hints we could find online.
we use current versions all updated.
even if we can make the front forum page to work, the topics and all sites below arnt adjusted.
it would be great if we can get help…

thanks and cheers.

I don’t understand how it is possible that bbpress in 2024 does not inherit the theme style! Buddypress inherits the theme style so it is even more absurd that bbpress does not inherit it.
Here we are not talking about new features but simply an obvious thing that should have by default.

@Robin-w if I try to change “7 The Name Of The Author Of The Character” in (Topic/Reply Display) nothing happens.
Is this a bug?

I want to remove the “Forum” step from the BuddyPress group creation step but keep the group forums active. I have tried many solutions but I can’t seem to find a filter I could use.

For example, this code:

add_filter( 'groups_create_group_steps', function ( $steps ) {
    unset( $steps['group-settings'] );
    return $steps;
} );

removes the group settings from the group creation process.

This code:

function buddydev_remove_group_admin_settings() {

    if ( ! bp_is_group() ) {
        return;
    }

    bp_core_remove_subnav_item( groups_get_current_group()->slug . '_manage', 'group-settings', 'groups' );

    // reattach screen function to avoid 404.
    add_action( 'bp_screens', 'groups_screen_group_admin', 3 );
}

add_action( 'bp_template_redirect', 'buddydev_remove_group_admin_settings', 1 );

removes the group settings from the Group “Manage” menu.

Using this:

function remove_unwanted_group_creation_steps() {
    global $bp;
    if ( isset( $bp->groups->group_creation_steps['forum'] ) ) {
        unset( $bp->groups->group_creation_steps['forum'] );
    }

}
add_action( 'bp_before_create_group_content_template', 'remove_unwanted_group_creation_steps', 9999 );

removes the step but leaves the /create/step/forum/ step active, thus messing with the custom number of steps I have.

Can you please help?
