How Do I Do This?

  1. Hey Chris,

    I owe you a huge apology...I wasted your time.

    So, after trying all the various combinations you suggested, I remembered that when I first tried you original suggestion:
    <table class="forumlist" id="forumlist-<?php forum_id(); ?>">
    that I had put it on two lines. So, the "id" line started with a black (rather than light green) "id." I thought, "Oh, that needs to be green," so I went ahead and added < to begin the line.

    Obviously I'm learning this stuff as I go. Anyway, I went back, used you original method all on one line without adding the extra < and, guess what? It all validated.

    I'm an idiot. Sorry for waisting your time and thanks for making it work.

    Oh, also, I didn't want the "Hot Tags" so I justed cut that entire Div out. Everything still seems to work and still validates, but I worry that I shouldn't have done that. What do you think?

    I signed up for adsense and I'm thinking of putting ad code where hot tags was

  2. You can remove a whole div, no problem. If it still validates, then it's fine. If it looks good, then it's fine. Sounds like it's working fine...

  3. It's working great. Thanks for everything Chris. I'd be using a plugin if it wasn't for you.

  4. Sorry to bump this topic, but I'm new to BBpress and after a long search on Google and in these forums, I arrived here.

    I want to do the same as on this picture: this picture.

    Unfortunately, I can't get it to work on my forum. I posted the code of front-page.php below and emphasized the problem point (I think). I hope somebody can help me

    <?php bb_get_header(); ?>
    
    <div id="forums"><!-- Forums -->
    	<?php if ( $forums ) : ?>
    	<div id="sidebar"><!-- Sidebar -->
    
    		<?php if ( bb_forums() ) : ?>

                    <!-- th><?php _e('Topics'); ?></th-->

                    <td><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>
                    <td><a>"><?php topic_time(); ?></a></td>
                </tr>
                <?php endforeach; endif; // $topics ?>
                </tbody>
            </table>
            <?php endif; // $topics or $super_stickies ?>
        </div><!-- //c -->
    	<?php else : // $forums ?>
    
        <?php post_form(); endif; // $forums ?>
    
    </div><!-- //f -->
    
    <?php bb_get_footer(); ?>

    And this piece of code is wrong, I think;

    <table id="forumlist">
            	<thead>
                <tr>
                    <th class="title"><?php _e('Forums'); ?></th>
                    <!-- th><?php _e('Topics'); ?></th-->
                    <th><?php _e('Posts'); ?></th>
                </tr>
                </thead>
    
                <tbody>
                <?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>
                <tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?>>
                    <td  class="title"><?php bb_forum_pad( '<div class="nest">' ); ?><a>"><?php forum_name(); ?></a> <span><?php forum_description(); ?></span><?php bb_forum_pad( '</div>' ); ?></td>
                    <!--td><?php forum_topics(); ?></td-->
                    <td><?php forum_posts(); ?></td>
                </tr>
            	<?php endwhile; ?>
                </tbody>
            </table>

    I hope somebody can help me.

    Thanks in advance..

  5. Hi Robert,

    I re-brought this up (and provided a solution and a theme) in October.
    If you check out my profile you'll be able to find it, if it's not been deleted (a number of my threads have been deleted in the past few months)
