In reply to: Form To Forum Post
Think this is beyond the scope of a help forum ! It would take me much research and many hours to document.
Suggest you post to
and see if someone will create it for you.
In reply to: Remove – Display the login screen.I think those words are in your page 322
You should just have the following in contents
[bbp-login]I think you have
[bbp-login] - Display the login screen.In reply to: White box covering Forum screenok, think the ones on the page link are around line 90 (my .css is different, so exact lines may vary) – look for
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-header, #bbpress-forums li.bbp-footer { background: #f3f3f3; border-top: 1px solid #eee; font-weight: bold; padding: 8px; text-align: center; } #bbpress-forums li.bbp-header { background: #eaeaea; }and change background to the same as above.
They may be some others as you go through. Come back with any that are still niggling, and I’ll chase them down for you.
As you are making changes to bbPress templates, make a copy of the file onto your PC, and keep a list of what you changed, as any bbPress updates will override this file.
You should revisit child themes when you get some more time, as this is a better way to do it, but the way you’re doing will work fine (and was what I did in the early days!).
In reply to: Can no longer post.Ok, I’d try deactivating all the plugins (except bbPress!) and see if it then works.
If it doesn’t work with all the plugins disabled, switch to default theme such as twentyten and see if it then works.
If it works with plugins disabled, add back the plugins one at a time and see which one is causing the conflict.
In reply to: Forums list does not appear correctly on my siteHey, great that you’re fixed !
In reply to: Forums list does not appear correctly on my siteOk, you might take while to fix this, but here’s some starters.
On the correct forum, the page is using the bbpress.css under a div class of “entry content”
On the incorrect forum, the page is using your themes css under a div class of “storycontent”On the incorrect website, I suspect that you need to take a copy of the page.php that this forum is using. Rename this to bbpress.php, and move this file to your theme’s folder. BBpress will then use this as the page style for all forum stuff. Then you’ll need to edit it to use the bbpress theme. Sounds simple when you write it, but this assumes you know what I’m talking about, and even that I know what I’m talking about! But maybe start there and see how far you can get.
In reply to: Login with FacebookIn reply to: Login with FacebookNo problem,
Several ways to do this, the easiest is to add the following to your theme’s style.css file:
.widget_display_topics .bbp-author-avatar { display: none ! important; } .bbp-topic-freshness-author .bbp-author-avatar { display: none ! important; }or if you are using a child theme, put in in the bbpress.css in your css folder
If you need further help, just come back and ask, or visit
In reply to: bbPress submit button not workingok,
what is happening when they hit the submit button?
Have you tried
de-activating all plugins except bbpress to check if there’s a conflict?
changing to a default theme such as twentytwelve to see if it’s a theme issue?In reply to: bbpress sidebarpresume you are using the code is_bbpress() in your widget logic?
In reply to: bbpress Widget in Child Theme?unfortunately you are right. The widgets that bbpress comes with can only be changed by filters, and that may be your solution.
Alternately you can cut the widget code into a plugin. I do this to alter the wordpress login plugin, and once you get into it it’s quite easy, just google creating a plugin for lots fo resources.
You’ll need some plugin code, and then to copy the widget into the plugin. You’ll then need to change the widget name so it doesn’t conflict.
If having themes and plugins in wp-content was a security issue, then WordPress all over the world would be hacked daily, and if wp-content is insecure then all wordpress folders would be and the locations of the wordpress core are all standard.
I’d just put bbpress into a wp-content folder
If you really want to stick with your route, then search the whole bbpress plugin for “wp-content” and just do a copy/paste. it may be one occurance, it could be hundreds.
Of course you’ll need to repeat on any upgrade
can you do a screenshot of a phpbb page to show what you’d like, and add a link to it?
In reply to: Login Widget redirects to dashboarduse the bbpress logon widget in a sidebar on your forum page, and it’ll stay on the forums.
edit : sorry just read your entry again, and that’s exactly what you are doing !
I disable dashboard for all my users – untick “show toolbar when visiting site”
If they logout using the widget (which is their only option if they don’t have toolbar), then they don’t get the WordPress login page.
You can customose the generic login form if you want to keep it see
In reply to: Can no longer post.How long have you had the forum?, and how long have you had the problem?
Have you done any additional plugins, wordpress, bbpress or other plugin upgrades, or changed css or functions recently?
What versions of wordpress and bbpress are you on?
In reply to: Topic link to newest postNot quite sure what you are after
There is a bbpress widget that shows latest topics which you can put into your sidebar.
Otherwise come back and explain some more !
Think this thread should help you
In reply to: turn off new user notificationsuspect this should do it !

In reply to: White box covering Forum screenit’s coming from bbpress stylesheet.
there may be a quicker way to remove this, but one that should work is as follows.
I don’t think you have a childtheme, and now may be the time to consider having one, see https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum-part-2/ for more details
once done you need to navigate to
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css/bbpress.css
copy this file into a folder called css within your theme, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/mychildtheme/css/bbpress.csswhere mychildtheme is the name of your childtheme
Then edit every line that has
background-color : xxxxxxx
change to
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
NOTE it goes from background-color to background
and it is only the background color that you’ll be changing, not lines which just have color: as that’ll be text!eg
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-header, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-header, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-header { background-color: #f4f4f4; }becomes
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-header, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-header, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-header { background: none repeat scroll 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4); }This will make the background transparent, but with a darker tint shading that you have in your sidebar (the amount of difference is on the 0.4 bit, 0.1 is the lightest, 1.0 the darkest).
Come back if that doesn’t fix it, or for further help
In reply to: widget context – are forum topics same as posts?the answer is probably yes – a forum post is a post
You might do better to install bbPress WP Tweaks Widget Logic plugin which gives you a forum specific sidebar
alternately (or additionally) use widget logic where you can use code like
is_bbpress()or the negative!is_bbpress()to control where widgets are shownIn reply to: Remove – Display the login screen.Biloute,
There are lots of ways into bbpress and wordpress. Can you post a link to the screen you’re talking about so that we can clearly see what text you want to remove.
In reply to: No clickable link in notification emailsgreat, glad you’re sorted !
In reply to: How do you put the "My Profile" link on the menu?ok, that all looks fine.
The error as far as I can work out says that it has an unexpected ‘/ ‘ on the evaluated code on line 4 – so for the code in the profile page line 4 is
?>/edit/">However this may not be a line 4 error, but something that is missing or not evaluating correctly on an earlier line.
I’d try the following
Recheck that the code is pasted exactly as it should be, with no missing characters eg ‘;’s from ends of lines etc. The lines posted in my previous post go passed the visible, so did you scroll to the right – just checking the obvious first !
that your domain is spelled correctly etc.
Then I’d try removing the / from the start of line 4 – the edit bit, and the from the end of the edit bit – I don’t think that’s the problem, but try it anyway.
The just form my sanity copy the code from your page back into a post here, and I try it on my site to see if I get the error.
Then we’ll see where we go from there !
`In reply to: Replying to topics shows blank pageok, great to hear, and suspect you’ll never know why it didn’t – that’s computers for you !
