Hum sorry, must’ve gone into the spamfolder. I tested it myself and it works. Aw well, I sent you an e-mail via your contact form, cheers.
Almost 3 weeks now. Have you got some time to spare now @unsalkorkmaz ? I’ve made some mockups and found some good references. You have the e-mail mentioned above.
He he well good luck indeed! Are you doing all of the real estate functionality from scratch or will you be building the theme to support a plugin like WP Property?
2 weeks is fine, that’ll give me time to work more on mockups and such.
I looked into the child theme route but couldn’t quite achieve what I was after on my own. Are you interested in some freelance work? You can send an e-mail to contact at jmonkeyengine.org if you’re interested.
I have another (small this time) tweak inquiry for ya as well: How can I make the forum always 1-column? I’m talking about the way you move the right-side profile section centered above the post content on narrow screens. I’d like that to be the case even on wider displays.
We’ll be checking out those improvements to code posting now.
Unfortunately this is still an issue, and I’ve reopened the relevant ticket:

Thanks so much! Seems to have updated without a hitch (well, see below). Tested the forum search right away and it appears to be working fine, although I’m still aching for those search results to be presented as excerpts.
I did also find that I had to resave permalinks in order to see posts again, or else I would end up with a “topic not found”. That gave me quite the scare!

bbPress won’t even allow me to post a single link, what’s up with that? Anyways, the “admin styles” I’m referring to are over here:
wrapbootstrap dot com/themes/admin
I’ve been looking at various Bootstrap themes, and I’m starting to realize that the admin style convention is exactly what I’m after for my community site. Plastique and Perfectum are strong contenders.
I’d really love a tutorial on how to include custom Bootstrap themes such as these in Firmasite. The big question is whether this is in the “either you know how to do it already, or it’s gonna be out of your comfort zone anyways” category or not.
I looked into your themes folder and noticed that those themes (BootSwatch themes like Amelia, Cerulean etc.) are all simple css files, whereas these admin themes are complete templates with a bunch of assets of their own, so I’m guessing it’s not quite as straight forward as dropping a folder in the right place.
Thanks for the pointers 
I hope I’ll have something to show soon.
Here’s a first take on a layout I’d much prefer:
http://i.imgur.com/tLX4lvD.png
- I think you’ll rarely, if ever, use the pagination from the forum index. This is an in-topic sort of operation. So, I removed it.
- It’s still important to give an idea of how crowded a topic is, so I show the # of the last reply which indicates how many replies there are in total in the topic.
- The “reply #” button would take you to the last reply of the topic. Oftentimes you’ve already visited the topic before, so you know what the topic is about already and you just want to skip to the last reply/page.
- I’ve made a 2-part division between {topic title}, {topic author}, {topic category} and {reply link}, {freshness}, {reply author}.
- At the bottom of each of the example sites is a lightweight example, excluding authors to conserve space.
Update to your update: No the fluid width itself is not a problem. I just think you could display the forum data in a more balanced and informative way than what you’re currently doing.
I’ve been playing around with the theme lately. I can’t seem to figure out how to make the promotion bar and showcase text show up. What are the required conditions for these items to be displayed?
Also the posts loop could still use some work imo, especially on wide sites:

There’s way too much empty space below that title. I’m gonna suggest some mockups.
Apparently with some customization, YARPP can support bbPress.
There’s also the Other Posts plugin, which by accident supported bbPress for a while, so some of us have asked if maybe that could be brought back as a feature.
@johnjamesjacoby do you reckon there are some performance concerns for a plugin like this applied to bbPress? Seeing as “related posts” plugins often come under fire for being performance hogs, I fear those problems would get exponentially worse in a large forum.
By the way, is this theme based on Roots? Personally I’d consider this a very good thing, especially if you made sure to stay on par with it, seeing as it is a very actively developed and well supported theme.
Congrats, that’s great news! I was also glad to see that you took my advice and split some of your theme’s functionality off into a plugin This keeps getting better.
I tried adding that to style.css (including the dot) to no avail, the problem persists.
Update: Aha, when I added it to the “Custom CSS” in the “Customize” menu it worked.
Hmm, how strange that it shows correctly for you, as it’s like this for me on two different machines.
Regarding the custom buttons, I don’t think those should be displayed by default in the forum editor, no. Custom buttons and icons can be very useful in posts, but I don’t see them being useful to the majority of forum users. That said, I also think that custom buttons/shortcodes is plugin territory.
I’ve encountered this on both Windows 8 with Chrome and Ubuntu 12.10 with Firefox (screenshots). I can’t test on Safari. Also your first test post does not contain a bunch of text, the second one does. Test it with the first one.
Running it through some tests now. I had this problem in v1 as well, with longer posts displaying weird:

This is on a vanilla site without any other plugins than bbPress. And at first I thought this was only with images, but it appears this happens to all long posts.
Awesome, thanks a lot. Glad to hear it’s all in the parent theme now, that’s much cleaner, especially with BuddyPress 1.7′s theme compatibility.
Thanks for reporting. However, for now, Threaded Replies is custom plugin functionality that falls outside of our scope. If you can’t fix this yourself you’ll probably have to wait for bbPress 2.4, as it is my understanding that Threaded Replies will be merged into core by then.
We haven’t been able to reproduce this bug on our own site yet. I’ll let you know if we find anything.
Hmmm, that’s strange. We haven’t experienced anything like that on our site. Are you running any kind of caching or minification plugin?
I’m not asking for something that’ll work out of the box. Some pointers on what pieces of code to look at to have a go at this ourselves would go a really long way. Same goes for excluding forums and topics from default index.
I guess. The two are so closely intertwined now that there are some big grey zones materializing
