bbPress.org

Hello!

Question might seem stupid but hear me out;

The last update, per the download page, seems to be from November 2021.

Usually, a plugin that hasn’t seen any updates in the last year, to me, is abandonned and should not be used in a new production; Theres always a little nugget to change every once in a while, so even the most basic of plugins, barring a few exceptions, get updates at least once a year.

But, bbPress has not been updated in a year and a half; is it just that there is nothing to fix/modify, or was bbPress left behind to make place for a new forum plugin by the WP Core team and that should be the thing I do install?

I ask because I am right now creating a brand new site where bbPress would be used. So if the current plugin is under another name, I should install that one and not this one.

Hi there,

I think my breadcrumb isn’t working the way it should, because when you click ‘forum’ it doesn’t link to the general forum page but to the current page you’re on.

For example; I have a forum with category ‘Courses’ and in that category there is a forum ‘angles&ridges’. So when you look at the angles&ridges level, you have the breadcrumb home>Forums>Courses>Angles&Ridges.
When I click on Courses I go the page with all forums in the category Courses, thats good.
But when I click Forums, the page refreshes and I’m still in the Angles&Ridges forum.

I think when you click Forum in the breadcrumb you should go to the general forum page with all categories and so…

Does anyone know how this is possible? And how to fix/change this?

Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Eve

Hi there,

I’m trying to create a specific sidebar in my website. I’ve been reading about it in this forum and I’m following step 26 of the article ‘Layout and functionality – Examples you can use’.
What I did so far;
1. I added the code to register the sidebar in my functions.php of my child theme.
2. I chose the left-sidebar-page.php of my theme, copied it into my child theme and replaced <?php get_sidebar(); ?> with <?php dynamic_sidebar( ‘bbp-sidebar’); ?>. Because I read this in another topic of a theme salient user.
Now I have to edit the file like the example that’s mentioned in the article, but I don’t understand it. So this is where I get stuck.

Can someone please help me?! I’d really appreciate it!

Kind regards,
Eve

Ps. My website has a shop and LearnDash courses. The forum is meanly for the course participants and should be connected to the specific LearnDash courses. The theme I’m working with is Salient. The only other sidebar I have is the woocommerce sidebar.

Hi,

I am using the WP mail SMTP – Plugin, and bbpress is not sending emails (notifications) through this plugin.

After searching on the web, I found a similar issue on BuddyPress,

Buddypress registration ignoring WP Mail SMTP

They solved it with this code:

add_filter(‘bp_email_use_wp_mail’, ‘__return_true’);

Is there a similar procedure for bbpress?

Thanks

Hello, I am facing a problem, which is when adding a table and centering it, there is a large space at the top
The template has been changed and all plugins have been stopped, and the same problem.
And when you cancel the centering and make the table right or left, the space disappears

My forum is set up so that a forum user can only post in the backend/dashboard of my wordpress site because I never was able to get ACH plugin to work on the forum frontend. On the backend the ACF is working fantastic when a user posts a new topic.

However, the new issue is that the only way a forum user can see the topic link in the dashboard is if they are a moderator or higher. My users will not be moderators but participates. Is there a way via code to make it so participants can log into the dashboard and see the topic link.

I have removed the column titled ‘voices’ by this code in custom css:

li.bbp-topic-voice-count {
    display: none !important;
}

I want to hide the column with the title ‘Posts’. Is there a way to do this also via custom css?

Hi

I use wpForms “User Registration”,version 2.2.0 for user registration for my site. However, I found that wpForms user registration form is no longer setting the role that I have specified in wpForms. I found that if I deactivated the bbPress plugin, then the new user’s default role was set as specified in wpForms. So, something in bbPress is interfering with the wpForms setting.

I am using bbPress version 2.6.9

This is a critical error. Any help solving this would be MUCH appreciated.

I do not want anyone, including members, to be able to post topics on the frontend of the forum, just through backdoor. How do I remove that option? It appears the code is form-forum.php file but cannot determine what code I need to remove. What I have tried keeps giving me ‘page not found’.
