Plugin Conflict with GD BBpress Tools

Hey Erich,

Do you have the Whitelist enabled within bbPress Advanced Statistics? You can check this within the ‘Extras’ tab.

If so, you will either need to disable it, or add all of the BBCodes provided by GD BBPress into the whitelist. The developer of that plugin has added the bbcodes as shortcodes into WordPress, which is why they are being stripped out.

Let me know how it goes,

Hi Jake,

Thanks for your super fast reply.

I see, how could I add them to the white list? Do I just need to add the bbcodes themselves, or his actual code for the bbcodes?

Hey Erich,

Just add the bbcodes themselves, without the square brackets. That’s it! E.g, for your quote issue you are having, just entering quote into the box will display them as normal.

Basically, any BBCodes/Shortcodes you want the user to access should be entered into the box. Alternatively, you could disable that feature entirely.

Ah! Thanks that did it. I didn’t know it had a whitelist for the bbcodes.

I really appreciate you helping me fix this. This plugin should be a default feature of bbpress, in my honest opinion. It gives my forums a nice traditional forum look.

Thanks again for your help and I’ll be sure to leave you a great feedback.

Fast Update – had to make sure there were no spaces between the bbcodes : example: b,i,spoiler is the correct way
b, i, spoiler is the wrong way

Brilliant, glad you got that solved!
