bbPress.org

I was following the layout and functionality examples you can use and it didn’t work for me.

Step 1 worked for me just fine.
I inserted the following code into my functions.php (i am using a child theme)

//create vertical list
function custom_bbp_sub_forum_list() {
  $args['separator'] = '<br>';
  return $args;
}
 add_filter('bbp_before_list_forums_parse_args', 'custom_bbp_sub_forum_list' );

Then I moved onto step 2 and added this into my functions.php as well

function remove_counts() {
$args['show_topic_count'] = false;
$args['show_reply_count'] = false;
$args['count_sep'] = '';
 return $args;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_list_forums_parse_args', 'remove_counts' );

It removed the counts but it didn’t look like a list anymore

I’d like to enable custom fields for my forums, is there a way I can hook into or modify bbp_get_forum_post_type_supports without having to change the core files?

Alternatively, if possible, I’d like to add additional fields to forum attributes during the forum creation process. I just need to set up a field to save and read string data for a custom theme 🙂

Hi guys! Im checking Google’s Search Console every once in a while. I found out that some 404’s were found on reply feeds like this:
/forums/reply/11781/feed/
/forums/reply/11978/feed/
/forums/reply/12250/feed/
etc, you get it.

Where do these come from? I would like to solve the 404’s permanently offcourse, not that I redirect them and new ones like this appear next week.

Thanks guys!

I am developing a site with multiple forums. I’d like users to be able to subscribe to forums that they’re interested in after they register. I’d also like them to be able to manage their subscriptions from the profile page. Right now, you have to visit the forum to subscribe to it. I’d like to be able to subscribe or unsubscribe to each individual forum all from one page.

Is this a plugin somewhere that I just haven’t found? Seems like a useful function.

Thanks!

Hello
I will use private groups for workshops of my courses. For one course there is about 500 subscriber to the private forum and I can’t imagine accepting them one by one or adding them one by one. I want them to send a request within a period of time and I need to accept all the requests with one click. Is this possible???

I’m using wordpress 4.3 and bbpress 2.5.6 buddypress 2.2.2.1

Hi all,

Is there an easy enough way to create two columns of forums? Instead of the default one column spanning the entire length of my page.

Many thanks

I saw a lot of posts from a LONG time ago in regards to the same thing that all resulted in resolutions that didn’t seem to fit my problem or were way over my head. I don’t know anything about editing php files and hope I don’t have to. So here goes my issue and I hope there’s a simple fix.

I have a ‘landing’ page for my forums with the

This lists all my forums and sub-forums perfectly.

When I click on a forum and either make a new post or add a reply to a post everything seems to work just fine until I hit the submit button. Everything is clumped into one big mess. I’m not using HTML or BBCode just straight up typing like I’m doing right here. The main problem is lines between paragraphs.

Like this

and this.

They all vanish when I hit submit and looks more…

I have a visitor section on the forums that allows visitors to post things should anyone wish to test it out. The site is located here http://cp-fc.com

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone. I have posted several times on the wordpress.org job board – each time I am flooded with responses from all over the world. In the past 3 months or so I have hired 4 different devs – ALL of which have flaked out on the project or for one reason or another were unable to complete the task. My project is now well behind schedule due to this. I thought I’d ask for help here instead, since I know we have a lot of members who really know their bbPress stuff. Here’s what I’m hoping to implement:

1. When using the “reply” button within topics, I would like the username in which you are replying to, to auto-generate in the text box(@username)

2. Add a drop down to the new topic form – this would create color specific background to the topics. For example topic types would be: discussion, photo, link, music, quote, and it would correspond with a specific background color when the new topic is actually posted. Let me know if that makes sense.

If anyone has any knowledge on how to make this happen, please let me know. I would be delighted to work with someone with who is capable and willing. Thank you!

(mods, please don’t delete…this is a job posting, but I really need someone who is qualified instead of mass responses without the proper skills set)

I’m wondering if it is easy enough to migrate a google group to bbpress? I’ve come across a couple of services out there that offer this service (albeit without testimonials) but was interested to know if there was a plug-in or scraper service that can do this for me. I have time to make some amendments and changes but would generally like to automate the process, including the migration of users.

Someone posted the same question on this forum four years ago and received no reply…

I know this is a subject that’s well documented but I can’t work out why my topics and replies are not appearing.

After posting a new topic or reply my posts are not displaying unless I change the theme. This would suggest a cache issue on the WP end but I’ve disabled all plugins, including WP Super Cache and Akismet.

This is a clean install of WordPress with a new database on a brand new URL and I’ve tried refreshing the permalinks. I have tried a number of different themes, from the WordPress ones to Avada. This is not a theme issue.

If I have no plugins running (apart from bbpress of course) and no cache plugins, what might be causing this?
