    Hello!

    Is it possible to setup “set reply as private” in the forums – like you got here on the page?
    Sometimes it might be nice for members to have the option so send “sensitive” information in a private reply.

    Is there a plugin or anything that can be used for this? – Want it like the one you’ve got here on your forum. 🙂

    Thank you!

    Hi Katrine, 🫶🏻

    To create a forum like our own, here is the list of the third party plugins we installed to add some extra features:

    1. bbPress – Private Replies: Allows your forum posters to mark their replies as private
    2. bbPress Multi Image Uploader: Allows users to upload images to bbPress topics and replies.
    3. bbPress Voting: Allows users or visitors to vote up or down on topics and replies
    4. WP Ulike: Allows you to cast voting to any type of content you may have on your website. You can add a Like and Dislike Button on posts, comments, BuddyPress activity, bbPress topics and even WooCommerce products

    Hope this will help you.

    Best,

    Katrine

    Hello again!

    Hope you’re enjoying your weekend! 🙂

    Thank you so much for the list.. I did install the private answer one (looks great!) – and the image upload.
    For some reason the image upload “drop-box/border” container starts off by looking great in size like on here – but after a couple of seconds “reloads” into something with more space on top, which looks wierd? – Am I doing something wrong? 😀

    Thank you!

    Hi Katrine,

    Seems RT Media is adding extra style. To change this, simply add the following code snippet to your website:

    /**
    * FIX : Change Height of Media Box in Topic
    */
    body .bbp-form .drag-drop .drag-drop-inside{
      margin-top:0px;
    }
    body .bbp-form .drag-drop #drag-drop-area{
      height:100px;
    }

    To add this code snippet to your site, we recommend that you paste it to the Custom CSS panel of your WordPress Customizer. Just go to your dashboard and navigate to “Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS”.
    Pasting your code snippet there should do the trick for you.

    Regards,

    Katrine

    Hello

    Thank you for the snippet – unfortunately it didn’t work.

    Did clear both server and browser cache – also did add !important to it.. but doesn’t work, still looks the same.

    Thanks! 🙂

    Hi Katrine,

    Sorry to read that. Could we take a quick look at this ?

    Could you create a new website user for us please? If possible with administrator capabilities so we can make a quick check of your settings. You can post the username and password in your next reply and mark it as private to keep this between us.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    Thank you for granting us access !

    I updated the snippet. Can you please try again ? 🙂

    Concerning the notifications emails, you need to check if your emails are well being sent from your WordPress site or not. We wrote an article in our documentation about that:

    https://doc.themosaurus.com/emails-are-not-send/

    Please be aware that we do not make any changes to BuddyPress and bbPress core emails in our theme or plugins. So, this issue has to come from elsewhere. Unfortunately, the installation, setting or debugging of third party plugins and hosting server misconfigurations isn’t part of the support we will provide for our theme.

    Hello

    I just noticed an error with the image uploader plugin. I’m not sure if this is only on my setup or if this happens for you too?

    When someone post in the forum and attach an image in the first post – then later replies (no image attached to that comment or reply) it adds the image in the post/answer even though it shouldn’t?

    Not sure how to fix this? 😀

    I will test it to see if this happens to other members too.

    It does – just tried from a different user and the image that the original comment had got upload into this too.
    Did try to clear cache and cookies – dosen’t seem to make any difference.

    Another fun error with this (just tested this).

    I just made a new topic in the forum – this time without uploading an image to the first topic.
    If I then upload an image to a new reply/answer within this topic it dosen’t upload the image.

    The first of these comments are the main comment in this topic – the second one is the one where I did upload an image (nothing shows up though).

    *Tried to upload images to this one – but now I just get HTTP error in here too*

    Error-047b

    <img src="#" alt="text" />

    Hi Katrine,

    Thank you for reporting this. My first thought was that this issue might be related to the cache, as you did.

    I suggest you to reach bbPress bbPress Multi Image Uploader Support, but I’m afraid the support is quite abandonned.

    The fact that the original image in the topic is repeating itself in the following replies makes me think it might be a setting. I suggest you to check all settings related to this plugin.

    Concerning the second issue, I don’t think it’s related, but something might interfere with this image upload feature. You might get a clue of what is causing this issue by activate logging on your website : just turn WP_DEBUG to true, by pasting the following code lines in your wp-config.php file, just before the line that says ‘That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging.’:

    // Enable WP_DEBUG mode
    define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
    
    // Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file
    define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
    
    // Disable display of errors and warnings 
    define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );
    @ini_set( 'display_errors', 0 );

    More on this in the following topic: Debugging in WordPress.

    Thank you.

    It just dosen’t make any sense since this dosen’t seem to be an issue within your support forum (you’re using same plugin?).

    I’ve tried setting it up in Troubleshooting mode and the issue is the same.
    This time with ONLY bbPress and the image uploader activated (nothing else but nessecary plugins).

    Hi Katrine,

    Thank you for your message!

    Yes, we are using this plugin. However, it has been quite some time since we built this support forum, and I can’t recall whether we needed to add any custom PHP snippets to make it work properly. 🤔

    Could you please provide us with credentials so we can take a closer look? While I can’t guarantee we’ll find a solution, we’ll do our best to assist. Just a heads-up: this plugin wasn’t part of our theme’s initial setup since no official compatibility was made. If we can’t resolve the issue, I’d recommend reaching out to the plugin authors or consulting a developer for more specific help. 😕

    You can share your username and password in your next reply and mark it as private to keep it confidential.

    Additionally, would we be free to deactivate plugins for testing purposes? If so, I strongly recommend making a backup of your site before we proceed, just to ensure you don’t lose any data in case something goes wrong during our investigation.

    Thank you !

    Morning! 🙂

    No worries – I decided to try the GD bbPress Attachments plugin, since I’m already using their Poll plugin too and this works perfectly with the theme.

    So everything should be working as intended now for sure. 🙂

    Maybe something to add to your list of compatible third party plugin as a suggestion instead – this would also make sense since the other one is abandoned and higher risk.

    Thank you though! 🙂
