Hello,

I am trying to create private topics with BBpress so it will be only visible between the creator and the administrators. Is it possible? If it is, where are the options to set it up?

Thanks and kind regards,

Unable to import from phpbb to bbpress

Published on March 25th, 2018 by dheerajsharma14

Hi all,

have gone through numerous posts on the issues of importing phpbb to bbpress. I have been using the latest RC version of bbpress. I am using latest version of WP and phpbb 3.0.11

I have tried cleaning, repairing, resetting and trying again. Nothing works. It shows everything as 0 items to import, no forum, no topics. Only it imports replies without anything else.

Any help will be appreciated. I really want to move away from phpbb forum 🙁

Pagination Count has a weird quirk?

Published on March 25th, 2018 by TechHaus

I haven’t looked into this too deeply, but I believe the behavior is the same on this forum. Since I just started my test forum, it was easy to spot.

So say I make 3 super stickies or stickies (like, for example, in this Troubleshooting forum), and for this example, i will set my number of topics per page to 25 to match this site’s settings… on the first page, I will see something like what I see on here:

Viewing 28 topics – 1 through 25 (of 10,507 total)

If I go to page 2, i will see:

Viewing 25 topics – 26 through 50 (of 10,504 total)

So the 3 sticky topicss count towards the total only on the front page. Dpending on how many topics you have set per page – again 25 for this scenario – if someone goes to your last page by number via the pagination on the first page, they could end up at a blank page with no topics!

For example, currently on page 421 of this forum, there are 4 topics (soon to be 5 after I post this, probably). As you can see above in this post, it says there are 10,504 posts total, 10,500 is evenly divided by 25…leaving a remainder of 4…the 4 posts you see. 22 more posts and we’re onto page 422.

But On page 1, if the post count read 10,502 (currently is says 10,507 as shown above, but please induldge me on the 10,502 example), then it would show page 421 as it does now ONLY ON PAGE 1. And if i clicked on that page 421, it would be blank, because that pagination count is being created from that total count, it seems, which include the stickies, ONLY ON PAGE 1. In this imaginary scenario, if i were to go to page 2, the last page would turn into page 420, and the option to go to 421, which is actually blank, wouldn’t exist.

So including the stickies in the total topic count creates a bug on page 1 of pagination in certain scenarios.

—-

The way i came across this is that I’m starting some new forums and trying to learn the plugin…So i tested 3 stickies…and again, in this scenario, let’s just imagine that I’m allowing 25 posts per page. With the 3 stickies and 48 posts, the front page showed me having a total of 51 posts, and the 3rd page was available to the pagination. When i click on that third page, it is blank and there are only 48 posts, because the stickies are longer being counted. So again, a user can encounter this confusing behavior on page 1!

Just wanted to see if everyone else is encountering this on their own sites and on here if maybe stickies should be addressed in the function to determine pagination to help remove these exceptions that can cause navigation to a blank page with no topics.

editing post template

Published on March 24th, 2018 by hanza3

I’m looking to do something relatively simple – move the tags in a single topic post up under the title, rather than under the search bar – their default position.

I’ve been going through to files to try and figure out where this code would be but since there are so many files in default > bbpress I was hoping to get some direction on where to find the relevant code.

Thanks!

Renaming table label in Topic List

Published on March 23rd, 2018 by Cars10

When you enter a forum, a list of Topics is shown, but the table header says “Forum” instead of “Topics”. I have checked the source code and _e(“Forum”, “bbPress”) is used, and probably elsewhere as well.
There does not seem to be a way to properly rename each label in bbPress.

1. I think the label is wrong as we list Topics and not Fora
2. Could bbPress not facilitate to rename more labels? Our customer even wants the label to be CATEGORIES rather than even Topics.

I know, I could add a JS per page plugin and do a jQuery to renbame, but that ius of course the LAST resort – bad design.

Thanks for any hints to achieve or a fix on bbPress (e.g. adding a filter for certain such areas)

oversized emojis in replies

Published on March 23rd, 2018 by sarritah

Hi. For some reason I can’t figure out, when emojis are quoted in replies they blow up in size that practically fills the screen. To see an example go to (and scroll down until you see a big heart or smiley face):
https://forum.lamaisondurouge.com/groups/members-779458133/forum/topic/forced-bi-fantasies/
(pw: #kinkygirlz)
Anyone have any idea what is causing this?
thanks,

BBpress like/reply notification

Published on March 22nd, 2018 by zcoin

I am struggling to implement a plugin / functionality to catch the likes and replies from a source user (giving the like/reply) and notify the destination user (the author of the post) in bbpress, the forum plugin from wordpress.

Are you aware of existing projects implementing this functionality in bbpress (even partially) ?

Which mechanisms / plugins are better to use to trigger actions in the frontend in this case? On the other hand, is it a better approach to put triggers on the database column?

I am more analyzing the database…it has good information, such as user id of the source user, post id. I am talking about the wp_posts table. However, the parent_post is the first post of the topic, so it is not the ierarhical parent post. I need somehow to identify the nested replies from the database, but I dont find the needed information there…

Thank you for your suggestions !
