Since updating bbPress to version 2.5.14 on WordPress version 5.2.1, Administrator roles have lost access to be able to edit the Forum post types but can edit global settings on the forums. If navigating to the Forum post edit page, it states “Sorry, you are not allowed to edit posts in this post type.”

Looking with User Role Editor to check Administrator permissions, the group has access to every function with the Forum post type.

Any ideas on why this suddenly changed and what me causing the loss of access?

I’ve been trying to turn off mentions using:

add_filter( 'bbp_find_mentions', '__return_false' );

and

add_filter( 'bp_activity_do_mentions', '__return_false' );

but it’s not working. Has this changed in v2.6?

Running bbPress v2.6-rc-7 and buddypress 4.3.0

I want to turn it off as it’s not required by the site, but mainly that it breaks URLs that happen to contain a username as described here.

Any ideas on how I can turn off @mentions?

Hello, I have set up bbPRess forums on my website (albeit very simple ones). As they are currently built they are all just listed in 7 straight topics and it looks very bland and boring.

I would like to be able to add some category headings however, or at the very least break them up into different sections. I am not very technical as far as HTML or CSS coding… but I Figured if there is going to be a way that’s how its going to happen.

To clarify, I kind of want them broken up like a PHPBB bulletin, but I do like the functionality and ease of use of the bbpress forums.

Is there any SIMPLE way to do this, or at least a bbpress expert I could pay that could probably knock this out in an hour (or less)?

Thank you in advance.

I can’t believe that I’m the first to ask this… but after 4 days of searching for an answer, and not finding ANYONE with the same question…

How do I alter the pagination range?

In my forum, the topics have several hundred pages, and it’s not uncommon to get ten new pages a day. However, the pagination ONLY displays the first three or four (which are absolutely useless) and the last three or four of them (which is completely inadequate).

So if a member visits the forum after two days of inactivity, they might have 20 pages to catch up on, and since only the last three are displayed, it requires them to click back, reload, click back, reload, click back, reload… 15 times!

If I could display the last 10 pages, instead of only the last 3 or 4, it would be so much easier.

What is the secret to modifying/changing the query on the topic archive page? I want to list all topics on that page rather than have 16, and i do not want pagination. On normal wordpress post types this is easily done with pre_get_posts filter. But how is it done with bbpress?

I have tried this:

function bbp_change_topic_archive_query_args( $query = array() ) {
	$query['order'] = 'asc';
	$query['orderby'] = 'title';
	$query['post_count'] = -1;
	$query['posts_per_page'] = -1;
	return $query;
}
add_filter('bbp_has_topics_query','bbp_change_topic_archive_query_args');

and this: (but this requires a shortcode to work properly)

function bbp_my_register_custom_views() {
	bbp_register_view( 
		'asc', __( 'A-Z' ), 
		array(
			'orderby' => 'title',
			'order' => 'ASC',
			'post_count' => '-1',
			'posts_per_page' => '-1',
			'hide_empty' => false,
		), false );
}
add_action( 'bbp_register_views', 'bbp_my_register_custom_views' );

What else can be done?
This has to be possible.

wp v5.2.2, bbp 2.5.14
site is a pw protected site. I can give access privately if necessary.

Thanks!

Hi,

I’m just putting the finishing touches on my forum. I’ve been going through all template files I could think of but couldn’t find a solution to my problem.

Essentially I want my sticky posts to be on top of both other posts, as well as any sub-forums I might have.
As you can see in the image, I’m in a forum called “FlippedNormals”. That forum has a sub-forum called “July 2019 – Pirates”

My sticky post is on the bottom. Is there a way to have my sticky posts be on top of the sub-forum basically?

I am close to setting up my forum but I want to have all my categories in one forum.

Is this possible with bbpress?
