Pretty excited to see if you can find another topic to paste that link into.
@7i7GRiFFiN – bbPress 2.x is still in beta. It’s perfectly normal that it has ‘problems’, that’s the risk of running beta software.

Are you sure the plugins are made for bbPress 2.x? Otherwise you’ll be spending a lot of time looking into it without any result in the end 
Plugins for bbPress (2.x) work just like other WordPress plugins.
So install them like any other WordPress plugin, you don’t need to make a directory in the bbpress directory and put em there or anything.
Make sure they’re compatible with bbPress 2.x though.
This site is about bbPress not about BuddyPress, you might want to try http://www.buddypress.org
If you delete or rename the buddypress folder in wp-content/plugins/ you disable the plugin.
I wasn’t asking, I was telling the topic starter
Anyway, is that link to the plugin on the download page new?
Just to be sure: This forum runs the stand-alone version of bbPress NOT the WordPress plugin.
The ones I listed above are the only files I have in my theme. I always thought the less, the better, because of upgrades
Final addition, I’m giving up on this for now:
I run a child theme of bp-default.
I have files for archive.php, comments.php, footer.php, functions.php, header.php, index.php, page.php, search.php, single.php and type.php in my theme dir. That’s it.
Everything seems to work aside from the editing of topics. I tried copying single-reply-edit.php and single-topic-edit.php to my theme dir, but that didn’t help either.
With this info, any ideas now? Like I said, I’m giving up. I pretty much tried anything I could think of by now. Sorry to bother you with this 
Isn’t this line in the CSS:
content fieldset.bbp-form, #container fieldset.bbp-form, #wrapper fieldset.bbp-form
Try something like this:
content fieldset.bbp-form, #container fieldset.bbp-form, #wrapper fieldset.bbp-form {
border:0;
}
You might want to try border:0 !important; if it doesn’t work.
I didn’t test it by the way.
Just trying all kinds of stuff now. Disabling BuddyPress didn’t help either.
Is there any way I can see what file WordPress is looking for before it re-directs? Or in what file the re-direct takes place? (I know this question is not really bbPress related, but maybe you know the answer anyway).
That does work too, but when the forum-single.php gets upgraded and you want to stay up date with your theme files you’ll have to re-do the change(s).
Yeah I tried that a couple of times already, because I remembered that being a problem in the beginning.
I have a custom structure with “/%category%/%postname%/” at common settings. And the optional fields are blank.
I’ll probably have to look into the WordPress & Buddypress files to see where they do a 301 re-direct. Because when I installed httpfox and did record a session I saw the browser getting a 301 re-direct.
This is in my htaccess file by the way:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

And this from the W3 Total Cache plugin too:

# END W3TC Page Cache core
But taking that out (the W3TC stuff) doesn’t change anything, so the problem isn’t in there.
Thanks for looking into it! Guess I’ll need to dig a bit deeper in this then. I don’t use any custom bbPress template files by the way. (I do run buddyPress and custom post types, maybe something strange is going on in there).
Guess I need to find out what page is being loaded / looked for when it re-directs from /edit/ to the topic.
Edit: Seems it’s loading /mytheme/page.php (a child-theme copy of bp-default/page.php), but the re-direction happens before loading that page…
Edit2: Disabling all plugins (aside from buddypress & bbpress) and the stuff in functions.php didn’t help either.
In my search.php I only return the title & excerpt. And that works perfectly, until I add the the code above and one of the results is a topic / reply. I assume that’s when bbPress takes over the entire output?
The first result has the breadcrumbs, “This topic has 1 voice, contains 0 replies, and was last updated by.” line, the style of a topic and a reply form. Pretty much just the whole viewtopic page. The results after that (both replies, topics AND blog posts) only display the content (with HTML in it). No titles on either the first or the replies after that. That’s expected behaviour?
As for that appending:
You mean http://www.domain.com/?ts=test or http://www.domain.com/?rs=test? That doesn’t seem to work for me.
I might want to go the Google search way, but for whatever reason I never liked it when sites implemented that. I can’t really say why though haha.
That’s the risk when you run software that didn’t have a proper release yet
Proper documentation will come in time, I have no doubt about that.
If you were running the plugin that’s in the wordpress repository at the moment (beta2b or something) you might want to change that with the one in trac (https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/plugin) that has some fixes in it.
I don’t know if they’ll fix your problem though. I never had to add any code to my functions.php to make it work and while I do have a message in my dashboard “Theme does not natively support bbPress”, it works pretty good
Didn’t run into anything with the page templates or multisite (don’t use that), but here’s something about the other two:
Search
I like a site wide search results, but maybe an option in the settings is an idea? Something like “Search scope: Don’t search forums / Site wide / forum only” or something. I don’t know how that would work out coding wise for you.
What I ran into when I enabled searching through the forums was the fact that the first result included a reply form and everything, if it could have kept basic styling (like the other results) it would be perfect.
Settings
I don’t think there’s too many settings yet. You could break em up into several pages (with tabs), but that means users have to click more and some options will be harder to find (maybe you want that with some options).
Some settings I would like to see added (just throwing it in here):
- Enable / disable time limit on editing.
- The search scope function mentioned above
- Avatar size
- (Just because I stripped it out and don’t use it) Tag functionality: Enable / disable
This has been asked a couple of times already, try to search for it.
domain/wp-login.php?action=register should do the trick.
There are shortcodes for the following though, so you might be able to make your own register page (I’m running bbPress in combination with BuddyPress so I don’t need it):
[bbp-login]
[bbp-register]
[bbp-lost-pass]
I tried doing this too. And it worked, in a way. But with that code (I think it was that code I used at least) it enables searching in the forums, but for whatever reason the first result showed up in complete view topic style, including a reply form etc. Which is not really what I wanted for search results.
Probably something on my end, so I disabled that feature for now.
Any ideas JJJ?
That documentation etc will be made once the plugin has had a stable release.
Did you try making a page and putting one of the shortcodes in there?

The plugin version of bbpress is integrated with WordPress out of the box, so you could give that a try?
