Edit post means you need to retype entire post

Published on March 21st, 2016 by raailusa

Not able to edit a existing post. It allows me to see what I wrote but not edit it. As soon as i start typing the existing text vanishes.

Causes any edit needed to a topic or post very difficult. Is this happening for other people?

Trackback emails being sent to person who started topic

Published on March 21st, 2016 by klink

We are using bbpress, Memberpress (so all forums are for members only), and askimet, and a couple of other plugins. We want to get trackbacks/pingbacks so we know when other bloggers write about us. But I am surprised that our forum members are getting emails to approve spam trackbacks on forum topics that they’ve started. Is there a way to stop forum trackbacks and especially these confusing and annoying emails that are being sent to our members?

Password reset box (White Box, White Text)

I can’t seem to locate how you change the color for the password reset box under profile settings or the text boxes below them.

I am using the BBP Style Pack

Wrong sidebar showing for topics

Published on March 21st, 2016 by dasboo125

Hi there

I am using WordPress Version 4.4.2 and BBPress v2.5.8. I am using a magazine theme called Soledad which allows a number of custom sidebars.

After setting the forum root to community (and I removed the shortcode from a page) and seeing that I did not have a sidebar, I created a new bbpress.php in a child theme to enable it.

At first the sidebar was showing as the default one on the main forum index and the individual forums and topics were showing a custom side bar that I had assigned to posts (it shows the author bio)

After I installed BB WP Tweaks, the main forum index page is showing the correct side bar after adding in the widgets into the BBPress sidebar. However, individual forums and topics are still showing the sidebar assigned to post.

Any help much appreciated. I have read the how to page on setting up specific sidebars, but not luck.

Thanks
Laura

Can you display topics by the ‘Topic Attributes’?

Published on March 21st, 2016 by thinkDrew

Afternoon,

I am running a plugin that adds a Support Attribute to the Topic Attributes within the back end. Under Type, Status & Forum it adds a Support drop down for either “Resolved or Not Resolved”. See screenshot here:

I am wondering if it is possible to display topics by this attribute? Currently within the plugin, there is no way to check and see which topics are set to Not Resolved without manually digging through the forums. Just want to add a link within the forums that send them to topics that are set to “Not Resolved”.

Any help would be appreciated.

whitelisting unregistered replies/topics by email address

Published on March 21st, 2016 by randomcactus

I manage a bbPress-based student tech help forum for a college; site registrations are disabled (and must remain disabled). I have anonymous subscriptions/email notifications enabled, and email addresses are required for the creation of replies or topics, but am looking for a way to block any but a few email address domains from creating topics/replies. Is there a way to do this without enabling registrations? The only whitelisting options I’ve been able to find apply to registration, not anonymous subscriptions/topic and reply creation.

Hi
I put the bbpress login widget on the sidebar, but I would like to remove/hide its title and the line below it. Is it possible?

Here is a screenshot

Thanks in advance

Just published my first public bbPress plugin/widget (forum stats)

Published on March 21st, 2016 by TKServer

I’ve been puzzled as to how useful showing the user how many “empty topic tags” there are in the bbPress stats widget. I also don’t really care to show the user how many topic tags there are either. SO, I decided to make my own bbPress stats plugin, which I just published in the WordPress plugins repository here:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/tk-bbpress-stats/

This stats plugin allows the admin to choose which stats to show, which is nice. I’m still trying to figure out how to get screen shots to appear in the WP SVN, but you can see the stats live on one of my bbPress deployments at Ute Hub.
