I’ve been all over the forums trying to figure out a work around from having the username in the profile URL. For subscribers I feel like it’s no big deal to have the username in the URL BUT, for an admin who is responding to forum topics, having the username open to plain view is less than ideal. I feel like it opens up some security issues.

Is there any way to change the profile URLs to have /firstname-lastname (since I’m requiring those fields) as the URL instead of /username?

Hi,
I created a bbpress forum with my site and it seems to be working in general, but I have a few issues.
Firstly, when a user registers, they don’t get the new user email. I checked all settings and can’t see why this would be. They appear in my users control panel, and if they selected “forgot password”, they then get a forgot password email, but no activation email. Anyone have any idea why this would be?

Also, when a user logs in, in the login bbpress widget, it still shows the username and password login boxes, but if I go into a sub forum, the widget then shows the users details.

I’ve looked into this since yesterday, but can’t seems to work out what I’m doing wrong. Can anyone please offer any help?
Thank you

Hi,
Is there a way to also include the “Spectator” role and “No role for this forum” role in the top list of users? (see link below).
It would make it easier to check who has recently signed up but hasn’t been assigned a “Participant” role for the forum.
Thx.

On homepage of bbPress, using inspect, I found a strange paragraph with a break in it. You can see it hear between sharing buttons and search form:

Online Spiritual Community – Free Psychic Readings, Law Of Attraction & More

It’s causing quite a space between sharing buttons and search form. Any suggestions on where I might be able to edit/remove this in theme files? Been searching with no luck.

Thanks for any help!

Hello – We are using TinyMCE for our forum text editor. Can we somehow disable the standard text editor tab from displaying as an option within bbPress?

Thanks in advance!

I’m using the following code to add an edit profile link in the menu. But it adds it to All menus, I have a top, main and footer menu. I just want it added to the top menu. Any help?

// Filter wp_nav_menu() to add profile link
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'my_nav_menu_profile_link' );
function my_nav_menu_profile_link($menu , $args) {
    if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'primary')
        return $menu;
    else
        $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
        $user=$current_user->user_nicename ;
        $profilelink = '<li><a href="/forums/users/' . $user . '/edit">Edit Profile</a></li>';
        $menu = $menu . $profilelink;
        return $menu;
  
}

When users link to our posts within a topic or reply, wordpress is embedding the post within the reply via an iFrame. (As in, you can see a preview of the post.

How do we prevent internal links from being embedded while still allowing YouTube etc to be embedded.

Thanks,

We use a membership script integrated with WP and BBP. When users unsubscribe from emails in script, they still get email notifications from bbp (topic replies, etc). This is bad.

It’s easy for us to mass-assign these members to a custom role. Is there a way to prevent bbp from sending emails to these users who have this custom role?

I see here that you can create functions for creating new capabilities (for User Role Editor plugin):

User Role Editor WordPress plugin – Change roles easily

Is there a function, or another method I can use to prevent bbp from sending of all emails for users who have specific custom role?

Thanks for any suggestions!

I have a site which is using the newspaper theme
So after installing the bbpress plugin and creating a forum and posting a random topic in it
The topic can be accessed normally but the forum itself and the forums index and the “all forums” tab through the admin dashboard shows a HTTP ERROR 500
And This page isn’t working when using Chrome.
I’ve tried to disable every plugins but the bbpress one, And it hadn’t made any difference

Any suggestion would be helpful.
