I guess a template option for show/supress child fora would be better. Then you could use that db option... I'm still choosing templates but will work on it. This is what I had based on _ck_'s snippets: The theme's front-page.php just after the forum list titles: <pre><code></tr> <?php $forum_id = 0; //musnake: supress child fora: <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/hiding-subforums-subforums-from-subforum-pages#post-20150" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/hiding-subforums-subforums-from-subforum-pages#post-20150</a> ?> <?php $forum_parent=$forum_id; //musnake ?> <?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?> <?php if ($GLOBALS['forum']->forum_parent==$forum_parent) { //musnake ?> <tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?>> <td><?php bb_forum_pad( '<div class="nest">' ); ?><a href="<?php forum_link(); ?>"><?php forum_name(); ?></a><?php forum_description(); ?><?php bb_forum_pad( '</div>' ); ?></td> <td class="num"><?php forum_topics(); ?></td> <td class=num><?php echo $GLOBALS['forum']->views; ?></td> <td class="num"><?php forum_posts(); ?></td> </tr> <?php } //musnake ?> <?php endwhile; ?> </table> <?php endif; // bb_forums() ?></code></pre> That theme didn't have the breadcrumbs I wanted, so after much searching (including PHPXref!) I found this: which gets put in your theme's forum.php: <code><h3 class="bbcrumb"><a href="<?php bb_option('uri'); ?>"><?php bb_option('name'); ?></a> <?php bb_forum_bread_crumb(); ?></h3></code> Hope that helps.

Although I think <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/hiding-subforms-on-your-home-page">this may be what _ck_ was working on...</a> I see the global declaration in there... I'll try it... Nope. All fora disappear. I'll look into where this $forum_id comes from...I'm learning. Huh. Setting $forum_parent=0; (or $forum_id = 0;) seems to do what I want. Hardcoding.

You situation sounds like this one from a while ago <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-do-i-do-this" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-do-i-do-this</a> I am not sure what the best way to do it is. Did you try making the forums and subforums all in one forum installation, and see what the actual loading time is? That would be easiest for user login integration I think. Can you imagine updating 50 forum installations?

Thank you _ck_ and chrishajer. It works wonderfully now. I have a few more questions if you don't mind: 1. Is there any way to optimize bbPress for extremely large forums? My forum will have 50 forums, followed by subforums for cities, followed by 5 subforums for each city. (I've thought it over through as well, and this is the best way to organize it) 2. If there isn't, is there a way I can create 50 forums that are different, one for each state, and have them running congruently? Would that alleviate the loading time and the strain on the database? 3. Is there any way to have many separate forums that are sharing the same users table? They are going to be separate forums. I just want to have it so that 1) if one person is logged into one bbpress, they are also logged into another, and 2) if they are registered on one, they are also registered at another. Is there a way to do this? What would be the best way to handle this? It's just that when I release the site, I want to have every section and everything up so that I don't have to worry about expanding. I just want to do everything now (and having a lot of free time during the summer doesn't hurt either!)

Now on the forum page that's a problem because any forum listed would have a parent. Gotta think about that one for a minute... Oh wait, I know what to do, we just have to check if the forum_parent is equal to the current forum id. This is untested but in theory should work: <pre><code><?php $forum_parent=$forum_id; ?> <?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?> <?php if ($GLOBALS['forum']->forum_parent==$forum_parent) { ?> <tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?>> <td><?php bb_forum_pad( '<div class="nest">' ); ?><a href="<?php forum_link(); ?>"><?php forum_name(); ?></a><?php forum_description(); ?><?php bb_forum_pad( '</div>' ); ?></td> <td class="num"><?php forum_topics(); ?></td> <td class="num"><?php forum_posts(); ?></td> </tr> <?php } ?> <?php endwhile; ?></code></pre> Anonymous on "Hiding Subforums' Subforums from Subforum Pages" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/hiding-subforums-subforums-from-subforum-pages#post-17379 Thu, 17 Jul 2008 06:57:13 +0000 Anonymous 17379@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Hi.

I just wanted to delete one of my forums + 2 subforums. But it only deleted the (main)forum and not the subforums. The weird thing is that I can still access the subforums, but they don't show in the admin section anymore. I used phpmyadmin to delete them out of the database. But I thought you might want to check that out in case its a bug.
