    Alas, this plugin is causing a lot of “critical errors” on my server preventing me from logging in!

    Having done a little digging in the CSS that “bbp style pack” creates, I THINK I have isolated the buttons to the class of

    #bbpress-forums.button{
    background-color:#9e9e9e
    color: 000000
    }

    … which is the correct grey / black that the editor buttons SHOULD be. But it seems that something after that is picking up the theme colours, and setting it to those. (Unless there is some code earlier that is !IMPORTANT! that is setting it.

    Also, “bbPress” seems to have a mind of it’s own, disregarding settings made within WordPress. For example, the editor has been set up with two rows of buttons … but “bbPress” will only display the default 12 or 13 buttons in one row, (and not even those match what’s been set up elsewhere in WordPress) The same plugin that sets up two rows of buttons has an option with “Don’t use visual editor in bbPress” Guess what … “bbPress” loaded the visual editor anyway.

    Another plugin states “Switch this on to use the membership profile rather than the bbPress profile” Turn that on, and … rather than link to the profile, the link shows “#” so that it simply reloads the same page. And the big profile button (beside “Create Topic”) STILL jumps to the bbPress profile !!

    OK, appreciate that some of those things are bbPress not accepting the settings of the other plugins … but it gets somewhat annoying when you bat your head against a brick wall all day!

    BRILLIANT – ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT

    That “bb-style pack” is absolutely “flippin'” amazing! … and the “details” link definately undersells the whole thing. One screenshot – showing numbers that are not explained in the text – really don’t do it justice! (Then again, the entire interface of buttons is a bit OVERwhelming at first glance) OK, so it’s taken 3hrs to get everything set up, but it now looks “brill”

    (It still hasn’t solved the Tiny MCE problem which insists on showing red / grey icons!, and misplaced “Visual” / “Text” wording on the buttons. It also doesn’t show the second row button, but that might be ‘cos I moved the buttons around via “WP-edit”)

    Appreciate there is a DONATION option – and I would if I had the “reddies” That said, I’m hoping my ATOMZ apps + forum will find clients @ £25pm, so once that’s promoted, I will send you a donation.

    Now, before I try and crack the Visual Editor icon error … I’ll take a look at your other plugins.

    Really, it’s helped a great deal. (Originally, I was going to go with “WP-Foro” … but then found that was a theme, not a plugin)

    Apologies. I’ve just read the email, and I see you’re advising me to install bbp style … which is why I couldn’t find it in the admin area. Put it down to fact it’s now 19:40 in UK, and – save for 1hr lunch – been at it for 12hrs !

    I presume by settings, you mean the plugin settings option. The “bb style pack” you mention isn’t listed. Fact, all I have is one option that says “Forum Theme Packages” which lists the one default template. (I also checked the settings where writing / reading / discussion is shown, but again, nothing found)

    I have (sort of) solved it via a plugin called “Turnkey bbPress by WeaverTheme”; at least now all the children are shown in one column with a newline, although they still show with just (0,0) at the end, (which changes to (1,0) when making a post

    Will research if there are anymore bbpress templates that can be installed anywhere.
