So you can just call it as yoursite.tld/your-bbpress-dir/post-form/?forum_id =n </p> <p>I'm sure there's other ways of going about something like this, but this works for me. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-a-new-page#post-14345 Fri, 07 Mar 2008 22:08:13 +0000 rickybrennanjr 14345@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I'm trying to do exactly the same thing. I'm really surprised that there's not an easier way to just add a new page/template &#38; tell bbpress to load the template based on the URI, there must be an easy fix via mod_rewrite, toying around with it now ... </p> <p>There's an interesting approach <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-do-i-add-a-custom-template-name-to-bbpress">in this thread</a> although thus far I haven't been able to quite get that method behaving the way that I'd like, but will keep playing with it. </p> <p>Not sure if that helps, good luck &#38; would be curious about any further insight anyone may have ? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-a-new-page#post-12827 Fri, 21 Dec 2007 05:09:37 +0000 chrishajer 12827@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>To start a new topic or reply to a thread? I think it would be easy enough to have a form on a page that submits to bb-post.php, but how would it keep all the topic and reply stuff straight? (I guess that's not your question, but I just can't get past it.)</p> <p>I don't think you would call a template page directly though. Those template files are called by bbPress files in the root folder. So calling one directly is probably not intended.</p> <p>Just thinking out loud. Not sure how to accomplish it but it's interesting to think about. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-a-new-page#post-12821 Fri, 21 Dec 2007 02:54:21 +0000 outchy 12821@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Anyone have a thought on this? It's driving me insane :/ </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-a-new-page#post-12782 Wed, 19 Dec 2007 14:46:08 +0000 outchy 12782@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hey all, I need some help. Basically, I don't want the post form showing up on any of the main pages but instead, I'd like to create a separate page called newpost.php that contains only the post form that I can link to from all appropriate pages. But when I create this page and try hitting it, it either cannot be found by typing in /bbpress/newpost.php or shows up as a blank page when I type in the full url to the theme (bbpress/bb-templates/theme/newpost.php).</p> <p>Any ideas on how to get this to work? </p>
