Possible to bbpress?

Hi there – really pleased you like the plugin! ??

I haven’t use BBPress in quite a while so I can’t say for sure but I see no reason it wouldn’t work.

Have you tried it? What happened?

Thank you for your reply.

It doesn’t work in BBpress, otherwise it works in Pages and Posts greatly.

Just Shortcode is displayed in BBpress.
(I installed ‘bbpress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab’ plugin which can show ‘Brower Shots Icon’ in bbpress.)

Do you know something is wrong?

Thank you again for your kindness.

Well thats strange. I don’t know of any reason why it wouldn’t work. I’ll have a look but I can’t promise anything.

Yes, It’s strange.

Anyway, thank you very much, and I hope you find the reason.

Thank you.

Hi there – I’ve done some digging and have found out why it doesn’t work.

The reason is actually quite simple. It’s because BBPress doesn’t support shortcodes in forum posts. At first I thought this was strange but actually – once I thought about it – it did make sense. If anybody could enter shortcodes then they could enter any shortcodes – including the bbpress ones. For example a random user could enter the login form, or worse, the entire forum, into a forum post.

Unfortunately there’s no way to run a single shortcode only. WordPress will process all shortcodes or nothing. So whilst browser-shots would be safe, because others are not it’s been blocked entirely by bbpress.

Sorry about that.

I shall keep this in mind and see if there’s a way to make browser shots work – but at the moment it doesn’t look very promising.

Hi.

Thank you about your answer.

It’s very helpful to me.
