What I'd like to do is enter some intro text however if I enter it under the page in WordPress it doesn't come through. I tried adding <? the_content() ?> on the archive-forum.php page that I pulled into my theme here:

<h1 class="entry-title"><?php bbp_forum_archive_title(); ?></h1>
<? the_content() ?>
<div class="entry-content">
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/content', 'archive-forum' ); ?>

</div>

But that seems to pull the content from the last listed forum.

Any way to do this?

I'm running bbPress 2.1 (plugin) and put on my blog's sidebar an RSS parser from forum. Problem is: when it gets an answer, the label starts with "Anwser to: Topic title" — in my case, since my site is Portuguese written, "Responder a: Topic title".

I want to change this "Responder a:" for something shorter, like "Re:". Do you guys have any idea where I change this behavior?

Can be maintaied down to the topic level:

Or how do you manage the topic view customization for adds or layout with a given theme?

Your spam situation should be fixed, too.

1. I'll look at making a child theme "friendly" version of this video. I agree, it's important for end users to know how to implement this. I was mostly providing this for developers who are creating premium themes & wanting to bundle bbPress.

2. Good point. I totally forgot about "bbpress.php". I'll look into it.

When it comes time to put together round 2 of this video, I have a few suggestions on things I'd like to see included.

1. Instead of dropping the files into the active theme, can you walk through quickly making a child theme? I bet many users are not able to hack away at the core files of their themes because they've purchased them just don't have control over that code.

2. Have you looked into dropping a 'bbpress,php' file into the root of the existing theme? You get less control over the actual template code, but it speeds up the process of getting the sidebar placement working in forums, topics, and the various other edit screens.

3. Good tip on loading the JS in the footer. Probably a core patch there so no one has to do that later. :)

That's my only real suggestions. The video is great and does a good job at showing how easy it is to do with a little bit of investigation into the code.

The timing is quite ironic seeing as the codex was released just today, so some things may have changed. If so let me know and I'll update the video.

When I'm searching themes in wordpress I just type wordpress themes in Google and more reference come out.

Thanks and greetings.

Make sure when you copy files from /bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten that you maintain the subfolder structure as well (e.g. css, js, bbpress). I was copying all files into the root of my custom wordpress theme (wp-content/themes/mytheme) without maintaining the directory structure and I was getting some strange behavior.

Hope this helps someone who might be having trouble!

Tried this?
.bbp-forum-info .bbp-forums li {display:block;}

Just a quick question about my theme, is it okay for me to leave the existing files from the old bbpress theme within my theme? Or should I recode it from your new theme files?

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bb-templates

Now what? I go into my admin panel of the site, and go to themes, and see these errors:

1. Your active theme does not include bbPress template files. Your forums are using the default styling included with bbPress.

2. Broken Themes

The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.

bbPress (Twenty Ten)

The parent theme is missing. Please install the "twentyten" parent theme.

Where do I go to activate the new theme? Am I putting it in the right place?

Site is running the latest wordpress and the latest bbpress plugin.

Please help.

Thanks and god bless.

i used:

border-collapse: collapse;
border-spacing:0;

and no more borders :)

Thanks!

here is a such
http://bbshowcase.org/forums/view/available-themes

Upgraded to 2.1, problem's gone. Nothing more to see here!

I’m working at a wordpress project that is structured as follows in a multisite configuration:

1) main site, single language, heavily customized with post types, loads of content, no forum, one webshop
2) secondary site, simpler setup, relatively little content, no forum, no webshop, multilanguage (WPML)
3) third site hosting a forum only and no other content; forum interface will be multilanguage (like site #2)
4) fourth site, reserved to admins only, single language, possibly a forum, to manage content and carry on project management tasks and discussions, etc.

- all sites would be in the same domain (ie http://www.domain.com/ = 1, http://www.domain.com/2, http://www.domain.com/3 etc)

- sites #1, #2, #3 would be seamlessly integrated in the frontend. However content displayed changes, since #1 has very different contents meant for users in the main language, while #3 is just a forum. Site #2 is intended to provide information and basic contents to international users, while the forum would provide a common space for discussion, being the interface translated.

I want a multisite setup so users can keep their logins, cookies, across the sites, yet at the same time make some order to admin the different areas.

Now… it is clear to me that WPML I can take care of the translation part. However, what I’m really clueless about is how to seamlessly integrate the forum part. Since mine is a community-type website, I want to have community features… Buddypress seems to offer a more complete solution for this than bare bbpress. I don’t want users to create their blogs or groups. But it would be nice to have better profile pages, private messaging, set their own display pic, and so on. Features that bbpress lacks or are not natively integrated (I come from a bbpress 1.0 experience and while I love it for the theming possibilities, plugin wise was badly supported).

So what I would really like to know… Does it make sense to run BuddyPress on site #3, activate only modules for member profiles, forums and activity streams?

Will the activity streams report activity of these users on sites #1 and #2? (would that include creation of new articles, posts and content by admins and authors? or just comments?)

Will the users be able to login from site #1 or #2 or #3 and kept logged in without any weirdness happening when navigating through the sites and performing actions?

Can authors from #1 and #2 link their profiles to profiles found in #3 Buddypress rather than using author.php? Same for registered users that post a comment on #1 or #2, can they have a link directing to their Buddypress member profile page/activity stream?

Being site #1 only in one language for both content and interface, what if user jumps from #2 or #3 to #1 and then back to #2 or #3, would his languages preference being persistent?

Thank you!
