Specialty question, piggybacked onto this topic. 🙂 Mr. Jacoby’s answer got me thinking.

Is there a special function that I can use that will redirect the link associated with

$args['root_text'] = 'Forums';

to another location on my site. Preferable an existing WordPress page. Comes back to the link of that breadcrumb goes to an archive page. I would rather it go to an index…or a WP page which is acting as an index. Thanks.

You stated my exact problem which I am currently having. I am a noob. But I can usually google search my way out of any problem. (Which led me here, but with no answer) I see that the “forums base” archive slug field is used in the breadcrumb for bbPress. When I click on the link in the breadcrumb, it takes me to the archive page….not what I want my users to be able to do at all. I want them to be able to get back to a forum index from anywhere inside bbPress.

I setup a WP page and used the bbPress shortcodes to give me a Forum index; which is the main portal to all of the topics and posts on my site.

However, once a forum/topic is selected by a user, the bbPress *.php takes over and the pages are dynamically generated ( i guess ). How do I send people back to the forum index WP page from anywhere inside bbPress? I would prefer the breadcrumb worked or at least could be redirected to the WP page. Linking me to an archive page does NOTHING for any user, when trying to get back to an index.

Hope that was descriptive enough to workout a solution. Thank you.

http:www.//sailhavasu.com/bbpress/forum/hpcc-2013/ <- bbPress page where the breadcrumb "Forums" links to an archive page. Would rather it linked to an index; either a WP page or a dynamically created bbPress page with an actual index. (Note: "bbpress" is what I named the Forums base Archive Slug; another issue that appears weird to a noob.)
