Is the base URL for your forums set to “community” or is that the page you have placed a bbPress short code on?
Can you give a more through example? Do you want to detect when you’re on a single forum? A specific topic?
@Tanya – No, I don’t have any kind of time frame. JJJ and I haven’t started actively planning it, just talking about it a bit. Big features like this also tend to take a long time to implement, so I wouldn’t hold your breath for anything short term.
@Jeeni – So glad to hear it’s working well!
Here’s a really basic way of how you can do it: https://gist.github.com/3788409
It’d be great if you could submit a trac ticket.
The theme template.
It’s not so much CSS as it is HTML. In this case I’m not able to give you the necessary CSS without first taking a long time to set it up myself and figure it out. I would recommend you hire someone to do it for you.
You will have to modify the theme template files in order to get all sub forums to match up.
Read my reply above. You can create a page (just a regular WordPress page) and then place [bbp-forum-index] in the page content.
In the page settings go to Discussion and disable comments.
Go to the wp-admin then click on Pages > Add New and place
[bbp-forum-index]
inside of the main content.
Unless you place one of the forum short codes on a page, there is no page assigned to bbPress templates.
I’m not sure I’m following. Do you want to know if you are on one of the forums that is nested under the discussions page?
What if you place the [bbp-forum-index] on a regular page and select the Sidebar template? Does that allow the widgets correctly?
Do you have a single-forum.php file in the theme?
No, there is not a bbPress version of 2011, but Twenty Eleven is fully compatible. I’ve used it several times.
Go to Settings > Permalinks and click Save Changes. Once you do that it should work.
Log into your WordPress admin, go to Pages, click Edit on the page you want, then look at the URL. The post=xx part will show you the page ID, which you can then use in your code:
if( ! is_user_logged_in() && is_page( xx ) ) {
// use get_permalink() to get the URL.
}
OK first read about short codes here.
Basically a short code is a place holder for content (html, images, posts, etc). When you place [bbp-forum-index] into the content of a page, it will be replaced automatically with an index of your forums in bbPress. Try it out and you’ll see what I mean.
Well some one has modified it. The theme you are using is not default Twenty Elevent. The HTML markup has changed a little and it’s causing the problem.
Switch to the default Twenty Eleven and see if that fixes the alignment. If it does, then add your colors back in.
Are you familiar with what short codes do and how to use them?
No there is not any paid support for bbPress. It’s all volunteer.
Can you provide a live URL? The problem should be able to be fixed with a little bit of CSS.
Only users with upload capability are allowed to embed images by default. I’d recommend that you install the GD bbPress Attachments plugin for this as it will give the option for users to upload images.
Can you please be a bit more descriptive of the problem? Is the problem that Forums/Topics/Replies don’t show up in the WP dashboard?
You can use the [bbp-lost-pass] short code to show a change/lost password form.
There is an option in Settings > Forums to allow/disallow annonymous posting. Set this so that users are required to login in order to post in the forums.
You can show a registration form with the [bbp-register] short code.
It looks like you’re using a modified version of Twenty Eleven. The widgets in that page template are supposed to be on the side, but the modifications made to the theme have broken that.
Did you do the mods or have someone do it for you?
