How can I enable topic view count on forums?

Hi!
I’m trying to change the URL of the redirection after subscribing to a forum, based on where I’m coming from.

I have subscription buttons on both the forum pages and a page with a list of all forums. When I subscribe from the forum page I want to stay there (it works fine), and when I subscribe from the list I want to go back to the list but instead I am redirected to the page of the forum I just subscribed to.

Looking at the comment in the code (“Redirect back from whence we came”) I feel like what I want to do is actually how it’s supposed to work but it’s not working for me (I fall in the last else).

Any idea how I could achieve this?
Thanks in advance!!

where am I wrong?
How do I select the type of page?

forum
sub-forum list
Mice list of sub-forum
and topic-post

<!– IF HAVE A PASSWORD–>
<?php if ( post_password_required() ) : ?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘form’, ‘protected’ );?>

<!– IF NOT HAVE APASSOWORD –>
<?php else: ?>

<!– => LOOP CATEGORY –>
<?php if ( bbp_is_forum_category() && !bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>
<p>ITS A MACRO-FORUM (category)</p>
<?php include “common/forums_category.php” ?>

<!– => LOOP FORUMS –>
<?php elseif ( bbp_is_forum_category() && bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>
<p>ITS A SUB-FORUM</p>
<?php include “common/forums_topiclist.php” ?>

<!– => LOOP TOPIC OF FORUM –>
<?php elseif (!bbp_is_forum_category() && bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>
<p>ITS A TOPIC LIST</p>
<?php include “common/forums_topic.php” ?>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php endif; ?>

sorry for my unfamiliarity with php and bbPress …
thank you

I worked so hard on creating my forums but unfortunately after all that work all the forum descriptions do not show. Only the headings show and not the content I wrote underneath. As a result my forum has been completely dead, and no one wants to post since they don’t see anything. Can you help me to get these forum descriptions showing?

I am using bb press and have installed it. This is not an installation question but how to use it.

Template hierarchy in detail

This page is a great initiative to make explained each part.. but for me still has a problem…

I can’t identify those parts in the layout… could someone do a visual scratch for elements over some “twenty” template?

I really, really appreciate 😉

I activated plugin – however i do not see Forums in menu at all. I am using Divi theme

Hi guys and gals,

I’ve searched up and down for this and haven’t been able to find anything.

Is it possible to set up bbPress to show the latest post/reply when you click on a thread?

Currently, if I have say 3 pages, clicking on a discussion will take me to the first page and the first post. I’d like it to take me to the latest reply in the thread when I click on the thread topic.

Possible? Thanks for any help on this!

WordPress 4.6.1, bbPress 2.5.10, sorry, no link because the forum is closed

With Auto-Embed enabled, some threads won’t load at all or need as long as 20 min. to load.
I created a test thread and found the problem occurs when there are links to other threads within the forum. Although I only created three messages which all contain nothing but a link to another thread within the forum, the page has to load 250 MB of data and hundreds of www-embed-player.js. Also, more than a thousand recourses are loaded (well, one of the linked threads has lots of embedded YouTube videos).

When Auto-Embed is on bbPress shows the topic of the linked thread instead of the link, which is good. But it seems that everything from that linked thread is already loaded and I’m not even sure that if those linked threads contain links to other threads as well, that those are not loaded, too.
I’m don’t know why it is loaded, because it is (of course) not shown. If Auto-Embed is off, everything is fine.

Is there something we can do about that behavior? What we need, are YouTube and especially SoundCloud files that can be played from within the thread and links to other threads that won’t load the complete content without showing it.

Any ideas?

I would like my entire forum to show on one page. Right now only the top level categories show, but the sub topics can only be seen if you click the top category.

Is there a way to have the entire forum show in a hierarchical format instead of having to click the category and jump to a new page to see the sub topics.

Hope that makes sense. Thanks.
