Block/Ignore Users?

Published on March 26th, 2015 by joym

Is this not a standard feature in bbpress? Some people don’t get along and their user experience would be better if they had the ability to block another member. Can anyone help with this? Thank you.

No Forum menu options in dashboard controls

Published on March 26th, 2015 by admiralmuttonchops

Hi –

I just installed my first attempt at bbpress and nothing is showing up in the dashboard menu. There is no forum option, no tools and no options under settings. My site role is listed as “Administrator”, secondary and forum roles as “Keymaster”.

It will be complicated to disable all of the plugins or install TwentyThirteen. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what the problem might be? WordPress 4.1.1 & bbpress 2.5.6, running Bolid Theme (Is that known to have a conflict). Thanks in advance.

unique forum topic icons

Published on March 26th, 2015 by andrew55

I’ve been searching, and there seems to be no solution for creating a unique topic icon for each individual forum (i.e – to be displayed to the left of each forum title/description). There is a plugin which pulls the image from the first topic, but that want work for many such as myself.

I’m no coder by any means, but my idea was to insert some simple php (if statement) in the template file, maybe right after “bbp-forum-info” in loop-forums.php

Something such as this:


<?php
global $post;
if ( is_single('17', $post->ID) ) {
echo '<div class="forum_pic1"></div>';
} elseif ( is_single('19', $post->ID) ) {
echo '<div class="forum_pic2"></div>';
} elseif ( is_single('18', $post->ID) ) {
echo '<div class="forum_pic3"></div>';
} else {
echo '<div class="forum_pic_default"></div>';
}
?>

The topic numbers would equal the forum topics. This would allow a unique topic icon to be shown for each unique forum. The “forum_pic” divs could be used to display a background image or even a font-awesome font (using css background property).

Anyone have any suggestions for this? Will the idea (with proper code) work? Anybody with some php under their belt willing to take a shot?

Or, is there another completely different method to accomplish this, which is easier?

Thanks for any suggestions.

@mentions feature

Published on March 26th, 2015 by joym

Hello everyone. I’m new to bbpress. I have both bbpress and buddypress installed. In bbpress the @mentions feature doesn’t create the popup screen. I’m confused as to where the notifications are for a mention as well. Can anyone help me understand the way this works or how it should work?

Thank you.

Solved – I was looking in the wrong direction.

add class to Create New Topic link

Published on March 26th, 2015 by andrew55

There is a link at top of forums: Create New Topic

I am trying to add a div class to this link so I can either remove it all together, or at least hide it on mobile devices.

Anyone know where I can add this class (what template files, where in the code, etc). I’ve been digging through template files with no luck.

It’s weird, because every other link/element has a class in that area, except this one.

Anyways, thanks for any clarification.

Profile Fields

Published on March 26th, 2015 by pags2k7

Hello guys,

Im currently developing a pets dating site. Im having trouble adding the breeds. Im adding them manually (all 332), while im doing that each time I save my work there seems to be an error. Not all the breeds i entered get saved, each time there is less and less. Is there a limit to how many options a field can have?

Thanks in advance

Not the heading I want

Published on March 26th, 2015 by alanr1954

I’m using WordPress 4.1.1 on twentyfifteen them, and bbpress 2.5.6

I’ve created a test forum called ‘A completely spurious forum’ which is set to ‘private’. But when I go there as a logged in user, the heading of the forum is ‘Private: Private: A completely spurious forum’. Where did the two ‘privates’ come from and how do I get rid of them?

auto unsubscribe with Mandrill

Published on March 26th, 2015 by tharsheblows

Does anyone have auto-unsubscribe code for Mandrill hard bounces? So eg if a user gets a topic subscription email and it has a hard bounce, you use the response to unsubscribe them from the topic?

This is really just a shot in the dark before looking into it myself. I’m feeling a bit lazy…
