In reply to: how to remove "Leave a Reply" on main forum page?Do you have any caching plugins working?
In reply to: Add forum description to forums indexgreat – no problem !
In reply to: Add forum description to forums indexelegant – depends !
If you simply alter this file then on any bbpress version update you’ll lose the changes, so make a note of them.
There are alternatives
1. Add the css styling change to the style.css file within your child theme.
If you have a child theme, then this is ideal, as neither plugin nor theme update will affect your change. Simply add the code below to your style.css
/*Styling for forum description */ #bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-content { clear:both !important; margin-left: 0px !important; padding: 0 0 0 0 !important; }
2. If you only have a main theme, then consider using a child theme – it’s quick and easy to create one, basically it’s just a theme that you create that says “use this main theme, but then add these bits”. Google child theme video and you’ll get loads of help.
3. Add this to the style.css in your main theme
But you’ll need to keep a note of it for theme upgrades, so this is really no better than changing in the bbPress template, and neater to do it in bbPress than your theme4. Make a directory called css in your theme (either child or main) and copy the bbpress.css file into it. Then make changes there. this then won’t be overwritten on upgrades, but you will not get the benefit of changes to the default bbpress.css that may be in upgrades.
Overall 1. is by far the best choice, as you keep the code no matter what happens. Otherwise keep a note of your changes (which are fine, and are what I did to test prior to putting the end result in my style.css), so that you can replicate them on upgrades.
In reply to: "Blank" NotificationsI see you’re getting some help in the buddypress site

In reply to: Photo in profilebbpres uses gravatar as it’s photo system.
load you photo to gravatar and it will appear
I have a page on my site that explains this to users viz :
This site uses Gravatar to display avatars. if you already have a Gravatar account with your email for this site, then it will display on your forum posts; it can take a few hours before the link is established the first time. What is an Avatar? When you post, you'll see the default avatar beside your name. You can change this to any image you wish (providing it's decent!). Many people have a picture of themselves, or anything that represents your ego or character. Changing from the default avatar. The site uses Gravatar. The Gravatar site stores you avatar against your email address. This allows you to have a single image that many websites can use without you needing to add it or change it on each site. Since this site knows your email address (through your profile), this site can pick up the avatar stored with Gravatar. If you're not already signed up with Gravatar, then follow this link [https://en.gravatar.com/site/signup] to register your email address and avatar with them. This site will then pick up that avatar and display it against your post. It can take a few hours before the link is established the first time. Confused? Don't worry - if you're happy with the default avatar against your name, you need to do nothing further !
In reply to: Some users can't see first post@angeliti – suggest you contact the plugin site – they claim to be bbpress compatible.

I Haven’t used gravity forms myself, but if you are using the bbpress login widget , then you should be able to add a page called say “register” and then call the gravity form from within that, and add that url to the widget.
In reply to: BB PRess disappeared!Don’t know why it happened. try Dashoboard>tools>forums.reapir forums and run one at a time to see of this fixes your links.
It could also be worth checkint that you haven’t got a plugin or theme issue, although neither would cause a plugin to disappear.
Check other plugins
Check that no other plugins are affecting this.
Turn off all other plugins, and see if that fixes the problem. If the problem is resolved, add back one at a time to see which is causing the conflict.
Check themes
If plugins are not the cause, then it may be a theme issue. Switch to a default theme, such as twentytwelve, and test.
This seems to be a known issue with this plugin viz :
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wpsc-support-tickets-bbpress-conflict?replies=1
I see you’ve also posted to the plugin site, so hopefully the plugin author will come back to you.

Best wishes

In reply to: Search results issue and CSS border radius issueok, you could try just using a separate page for bbpress.
Create a file called bbpress.php in your theme folder
Add the following code to the bbpress.php file
<?php /** * bbPress wrapper template. */ get_header(); ?> <?php while( have_posts() ): the_post(); ?> <?php the_content(); ?> <?php endwhile; ?> <?php get_footer(); ?>
If you need a sidebar add
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
before the footer line
See whether that works for you.
In reply to: Search results issue and CSS border radius issueOn issue no. 1
the ' is the code for a quote mark ie the ones either side of this ‘word’
so something is displaying rather than interpreting this.
Not sure why, could ebe a plugin or theme issue

On your issue no. 2, bbp-foums class does the overall border
.bbp-header, .bbp-forums { border-top: 1px solid #EEEEEE !important; border-top-left-radius: 10px !important; border-top-right-radius: 10px !important; }
fixed it on my test site
I presume you’ve posted this to the buddypress site as well?
In reply to: Topic not displayed for user but is for admin“deactivating all plugins tangentially related to bbpress ”
The plugin conflict has nothing to do with whether the plugin is related to bbpress – any plugin can cause a conflict.
This is because conflicts are often with common variable names such as $user, where one plugin may set it to be x and the other uses it expecting it to be y.
Disable all plugins, and switching to a default theme proves that both wordpress and bbpress are correctly installed (ie not corrupt). From there you can add back themes and plugin to work out which is causing the conflict.
“There are a number of related threads about this issue on the forum but none have any real solutions provided.”
There are tens of thousands of plugins, and thousands of themes, and conflicts will occur with combinations of these. There is not one common problem here, the symptoms are the same but the causes many, so “real” solutions are individual. In the last few weeks solutions for many including a caching plugin and a theme have been posted.
Your problem is individual to you.
Try again with getting to a root cause by disabling all plugins and going to default theme, and come back if you still have a problem, we’ll try to help you to resolve this.
In reply to: BBPress Login Failure (Blank Screen with Single Dot)you can add a modal login which looks prettier than the wp-admin

In reply to: Topic not displayed for user but is for adminGreta, glad you’re ok now !
In reply to: Open forum pages goes blankOk, I see you also posted on their support page, which was going to be my next suggestion.
Since your code is on a local server, I obviously can’t take a look.
So now let’s try.
Create a file called bbpress.php in your theme folder
Add the following code to the bbpress.php file
<?php /** * bbPress wrapper template. */ get_header(); ?> <?php while( have_posts() ): the_post(); ?> <?php the_content(); ?> <?php endwhile; ?> <?php get_footer(); ?>
If you need a sidebar add
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
before the footer line
See whether that works for you.
In reply to: Forum QuestionThere is no reason that you shouldn’t use the main theme APART from the danger that on an update of the theme you’ll lose the changes. But as you’ve done changes, you have that risk now with your existing changes, and hopefully have a note of them ! As long as you keep a copy of the functions file, you should be able to just add this code to the theme’s functions file at the end.
If that doesn’t work, come back, and I’ll cut the code into a plugin for you, but would prefer not to do that if I don’t have to (time!)
In reply to: Incomplete list of forumsok, I think you might need to change a parameter.
Try the following filter in your functions file
function bbp_increase-forums-per-page( $args = array() ) { $args['posts_per_page'] = get_option( '_bbp_forums_per_page', 150 ); return $args; } add_filter( 'bbp_before_has_forums_parse_args', 'bbp_increase-forums-per-page' );
Come back and let us know if that worked.
