Howdy,

I’ve setup a basic bbpress standalone site without wordpress integration. I love the simplicity using it strictly as a trader site. Is it possible to add the editor like the one here and where do I edit language such as “Add new topic” to make it “Add new post” ?

Thanks!

Here’s the list of what I have activated. I have others installed that are not activated, those won’t affect anything, will they? I went through and turned many of them off (one at a time) to see if that would fix it, and have a list of those I didn’t turn off but need to go find it….

Custom Post Type UI
Essentials Tag Alphabet
Intuitive Category Checklist
Jetpack by WordPress.com
jQuery Categories List Widget
List Custom Taxonomy Widget

Ok, I’ve found that the bbpress tweaks sidebar can fail to work although populated. I have had this afger doing updates to themes and/or wodpress.

No idea why, but the following seems to fix it, so please try and PLEASE come back and say if successful or whether it’s just my installation.

1. Deactivate bbpress tweaks
Dashboard>plugins>bbpress tweaks>deactivate

2. Go into widgets
Dashboard>appearance>widgets

And look at the bottom of the left hand side. You’ll see an “inactive sidebar”, with your entries on
Below this is an “inactive widgets”
Drag all the entries from the inactive sidebar to the inactive widgets area.
This them allows wordpress to delete the sidebar
3. I normally log out and in again at this stage – probably not needed, but I’ve never bothered to check

Then basically reverse the above
4. Re-enable bbpress tweaks
You see the bbpress sidebar returns
5. Drag the entries back from the inactive widgets area to the sidebar

It then seems to function again

let us know if this works for you

Hello all,

I am running wordpress 3.61 with bbpress 2.4.

My readers often subscribe to topics and receive all email notifications when anyone posts in the topic.

Yesterday when I was posting it suddenly stopped sending email alerts to readers but just for my replies. Everyone else was getting them including me for all others. Later it started working all by itself again.

This morning the same thing happened. It just affected my replies as everyone else including me were getting everyones replies on that topic.

I searched for the problem and I just could not find it.

Then I looked at my replies to see if there was some connection between yesterday and today.

Then I noticed both times it was after I made 2 very quick posts in succession within a minute or so.

Is this some anti spam kicking in built into wordpress/bbpress. It cannot be my webhost as bbpress is using the same SMTP server throughout for all and teh email alerts carry on working for all, just they do not get any for any further replies I make in that thread for a while.

Any help appreciated as this is indeed intriguing.

I am using bbPress Version 2.4 and WordPress 3.6.1. I am using the Twenty Eleven theme v1.6.

On my page http://www.deadfate.com/forums/ I don’t have the sidebar that displays on every other page on my site. How can I add that? I am new to using wordpress so the more details the better.

Thanks in advance.

I am using bbPress Version 2.4 and WordPress 3.6.1. I am using the Twenty Eleven theme v1.6.

On my page http://www.deadfate.com/forums/ the cookie crumb says “About Us>Forums”. I want to change the ‘About Us’ to ‘Home’. The About Us already links to the homepage, but the text is wrong.

How can I change that?

Thanks in advance.

bbPress blocks shortcodes by default.

You will need to use this plugin to setup ‘allowed’ shortcodes:

Have you tried using one of the WordPress bundled themes (Tweny Twelve, Eleven, Thirteen etc) ?

[nathan1342]

I’ve installed bbpress, WordPress 3.6.1 and 2.4 for bbpress, and when I goto open the forum i get this error “Fatal error: Class ‘WP_Post’ not found in D:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress-test\wp-content\plugins\bbpress\includes\core\theme-compat.php on line 375”

Anyone encountered this before and know how to fix it? I’ve searched the forums but came up empty.

Thanks!

I am using the latest install of wordpress, buddypress and bbpress as well as gravity forms. I am needing to place a Gravity From inside a private bbpress forum topic as this form is meant to be seen only by members of this private buddypress group. When using the typical “add form” button at the top of the edit topic page which adds the shortcode to embed the form it places the shortcode there but then the shortcode is the only thing that appears when viewing the topic, not the intended form. Is shortcode not the way to do this and if not what is the best way to proceed to allow only members of this private group access to this form?

I am also using Customizr and having the same problem plus some more. When I set the permalink to .forums it doesn’t matter what I write on the page the following strange text just shows (and no bbpress sidebar):

Forum

.
Search for: Välkommen! › Forum Forum Topics Posts Freshness 1. Grundutbildning 0 0 No Topics 2. Vidareutbildning 0 0 No Topics 3. Skoning 0 0 No Topics 4. Smide 0 0 No Topics 5. Hovsjukdomar 0 0 No Topics 6. Journalföring 0 0 No Topics 7. Övrigt 0 0 No Topics

If I change the permalink .forums to something else and write [bbp-forum-index] the forum shows up nicely but together with my default sidebar. I am using Instant WordPress to build my site locally and I know that there are some limits due to that, for instance I can’t write any posts in the forum. Maybe all these problems will be solved when going online?

Hello, I’ve added a plugin into my wordpress (phpScheduleIt)and its interfering with this plugin. It is coming up with a message saying

Fatal error: Call to a member function add_query_var() on a non-object in /home/guildfor/public_html/wp-includes/rewrite.php on line 47

Any idea how I can solve it?

I have the latest virsions of WordPress and bbPress.

[CraigM1970]

Wordpress 3.6.1, bbPress 2.4, Buddypress1.8.1 Site is http://www.thedoctorwhoforum.com

I’m using the visual TinyMCE editor on my bbPress Forum pages and also on my normal WordPress blog pages.

Some users have issues with spans and other code being copied in when they paste. I have been able to stop the pasting issue on the blog comments with the following code which added the paste plugin to TinyMCE:

function myformatTinyMCE($in) {
	$in['plugins'] = 'inlinepopups, paste, wordpress, wplink, wpdialogs';
	$in['paste_text_sticky'] = true;
	$in['paste_text_sticky_default'] = true;
   return $in;
}
add_filter('tiny_mce_before_init', 'myformatTinyMCE' );

However, it doesn’t affect TinyMCE on the Forums. They seem to be separate. I instigated the visual editor on the bbPress topics with the following code:

function bbp_enable_visual_editor($in) {
  $in['tinymce'] = true;
 return $in;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor');

I’ve tried lots of different things, but I can’t seem to affect the bbPress TinyMCE the same way I can the blog TinyMCE.

For example, this didn’t work:

function bbp_enable_visual_editor($in) {
  $in['tinymce'] = true;
  $in['plugins'] = 'inlinepopups, paste, wordpress, wplink, wpdialogs, tabfocus';
  $in['paste_text_sticky'] = true;
  $in['paste_text_sticky_default'] = true;
 return $in;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor');

Anybody any ideas how to add paste to the plugins and possibly add paste_text_sticky etc as well? I’m a bit new at this.

Thanks.

Problem solved when upgrading to latest WordPress (2.6.1) and bbPress (2.4). I have WPML too.

Great work , thanks.

[WordProSystems]

also, came upon another little snag, and this is probably because i clicked something along the way, but on the same page where my forum appears below the forum is the exact same forum again… how do i get rid of that bottom one?

[bradsdude]

No Worries, just found this Forum Restrict and it works perfect

[Xevo]

bbPress is just using WordPress’s custom post type function, so you can just use the standard loop that you use for Worpdress and edit it to only load the forums custom post type.

Hello there,

I am tearing my hair out to try and change the with of this forum block (area in white) on my site. It is far too small and want it to be wider.

http://khalsaspad.com/forums/

If one then clicks on “Traders talk forum” the width changes to a wider width.

If you then click on “Trading rules and motivation” it changes to a different width again.

How can I change the change the width of the area in white on all the forum blocks to be nice and wide?

I am using bbpress 2.4 and WordPress 3.61 with the picochic theme.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much in advance.

I figured out how to do this and more, unfortunately I have found little documentation about using the extras folder in the BBPress template files and how really wonderful they are for advanced customization without the use of additional hooks.

EXTRAS Folder located at:
plugins/bbpress/templates/default/extras

To increase the amount of items you can customize in your bbpress theme, copy pages from out of here and paste them into the folder:
plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress

In this case I needed to customize the individual topic page titles so I copied single-topic.php from out the extras folder pasted it into the bbpress folder. Then I opened up my theme’s page.php file and compared which style, entry-content, and container tags needed to be pasted into the single-topic.php page. I then exchanged bbp_topic_title() for bbp_forum_title() and styled it with my default WordPress styling tags and placed the topic title below it in a smaller more reasonable font than my site’s default .entry-title style.

The end result is the topic page displaying the forum name up at the top in the site-standard page styling with the topic title below it in a smaller reasonable font, as topics are generally WAY LONGER and should not be styled with the site’s main title styles by default.

[BuckyOHare]

The problem is topics tend to be much longer than forum names or general pages on my wordpress site and need to be styled differently than a default .entry-title css. I imagine this could be done with a filter or by altering a core file of bbpress. I don’t know how to create a specific filter for this job though.

If I can’t do that then I’d like to be able to at least not display the topic title on the topic page but I can’t seem to differentiate .entry-title css from any bbpress specific page title attributes and end up just altering all wordpress page titles in the process.

Hi, Anyone know if there is a WYSIWYG plugin? Like the WordPress one they have when editng pages?
