In reply to: Styling
Do you have a link to your forum?
In reply to: Altering the output in Freshness columnYou would need to do a little custom work on switching out the freshness link inside your forum template files.
Inside loop-single-forum.php there is a function which gets all of the subforums. Inside that function is where the freshness link is. It might help to look at what I did with a starter theme for bbPress on github: https://github.com/EpicWebs/bbPress-starter-theme-epicwebs
Good luck!
In reply to: Forum Page?Inside your wordpress do you have an extras folder? Then inside there, there is a page-front-forums.php you can edit this to try and achieve what you want.
In reply to: Problems with my main pageDo you have any links we can look at?
There is the ‘bbp_new_reply’ action, this could work for you.
In reply to: Integrating WP w/ bbPressYou could just create a topic and write your course/page out in the topic rather than a page. This way you can pick out the course/page with CSS and style it the same as a standard page, then underneath there would be the discussion forum.
Good luck!
In reply to: Paid work offered.I have started work on a plugin very similar (it would let you do this) but the problem I have encountered is not allowing the user to see the forum, I am sure there is something I am overlooking but if I find it, I will let you know.
In your template files you could check if the user is logged in and if they aren’t then redirect them to your login page.
In reply to: BASIC QUESTIONYou can find a list of shortcodes and other helpful stuff in the documentation link above.
In reply to: Shortcodes don't workIn reply to: 1 registration, 3 new users, how is this possible?The only thing to remember is that you can register for wordpress and register for bbPress (bbPress creates a wordpress user). So potentially they could be registering in a different part of your site, which could potentially mean you don’t get an email.
You can usually tell by their email address and username if it’s some kind of bot or something registering for wordpress sites, I just tend to delete them. If I am really unsure I just send them an email from a random email account asking if they recieved their password correctly, don’t recieve an email for two days then I just delete it.
Just to let you know I have no updated the original link but I don’t think it has the changes you made. Good thing to know for anyone using Github, always sync before you make any changes that is what got me stuck.
I meant to say I HAVE updated the original link.
In reply to: Forum link in bbpress forumGreat!
In reply to: Login Widget StylingIf you add position: relative; to your .footer-block it pulls the login button back inside it, all of your submit buttons appear to be positioned absolutely.
In reply to: How to make my theme compatible?Inside the bbPress plugin is a folder called: \wp-content\plugins\bbpress\templates\default – if you add this into your current theme then you can edit this file to customize it.
In reply to: 1 registration, 3 new users, how is this possible?Are they all the same username?
In reply to: bbpress path changePotentially you could look at doing something with htaccess to redirect /blog/forums to /forums but I am not sure if that is going to cause any issues anywhere else.
Not sure of another way because bbPress sits inside wordpress as a plugin.

Aww man git is doing my head in lol.
I currently have windows.github.com but it won’t let me commit anything because of conflicts, then it redirects me to the command line tool. I can probably just make a local backup, delete my repo, resync it and then add the new files back in so it allows me to commit (hopefully).
If not then I will do some reading up on github I guess.
I am using: Windows, Wamp, Notepad++
Thanks a lot for all the help netweb, I will be trying to sort this mess out over the next couple of days!
In reply to: bbPress with custom permissionsThat’s going to need quite a bit of custom work, unless someone knows of a plugin you can use.
You will need to somehow map the user to their forum and then in their custom login page pull all the topics based on that users forum id. I can see how it could be done.
When the customer registers you could create the forum, update the user_meta with that forum id and then have a custom view which fetches the customers user_meta forum id and then displays all of the topics based off that forum id.

Good luck!
In reply to: IE won't display page rightWhen I visit the site style.css and navigation.css are not found.
In reply to: Forum link in bbpress forumIf I get any strange issues the first thing I do is updated the permalinks and resave them.
Have you made any changes inside settings > forums you can change the base url and things like that,
In reply to: First post not showingHey just to let you know.
I had a couple of issues with CloudFlare + W3 cache – I had to do an exclude on cloudflare to get the forum working perfectly, not sure why though…
Hey all, I am pretty bad with Github at the moment, I broke something so I made a new git repo.
https://github.com/EpicWebs/bbpress-starter-theme-v2.0
If anyone has any good git tutorials let me know lol. 😉
@netweb – I currently have a new version of my theme sitting locally but I am fairly certain the updates you did aren’t included. I am thinking it might be best to try and extend the bbpress-functions.php from yet another custom functions file so that this can almost sit on top of that and never need to be changed?
Any thoughts about it?
