Hello,
you guys are doing a great job.
I do understand that you want to disable the TinyMCE editor by default,
but why don’t you give us an option in the back-end where we can enable the TinyMCE editor?

That would be the best thing to do to make us users happy.

regards

Not sure where you’re getting your info, but it’s not correct. 🙂

bbPress uses your existing WordPress theme, and allows you to customize the individual templates as you see fit. You can copy the template files you want to customize out of:
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/
and drop them in…
wp-content/themes/YOUR_ACTIVE_THEME/bbpress/
where YOUR_ACTIVE_THEME is the name of the currently active theme on your site.

Then start editing them, and you should see your edits come through.

[John James Jacoby]

In bbPress’s default configuration, this is by design to support styling for widgets, which can exist outside of bbPress’s standard page views. You’ll need to write a custom plugin to dequeue bbPress’s CSS when ! is_bbpress().

I’ve been carefully examining my web access logs because my provider said my website is using too many resources – and even though I would say it is absolutely medium in size it uses about 50% of the resources on the shared hosting site.

I noticed that for EVERY page called from the website, whether or not is a forum page and whether or not it contains and bbpress plug-ins -especially not- includes a call to the bbpress style sheet. For example:

http://www.hippressurecooking.com/5-cant-miss-pressure-cooker-chicken-recipes/

GET /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css/bbpress.css?ver=2.3.2 HTTP/1.1

Any way for me to block this call so that I don’t use-up unnecessary resources for my website and risk getting kicked off my shared server?

Thanks,

Thank you, Shmoo. I will try it.

Robin, I tried that first but the breadcrumbs led back to the default forums page.

[Shmoo]

Just to show the people who can code..

This is what I would like to do with a little bit of CSS and JS without adding my own <textarea> and BBcode buttons.

Real Pixels

The default toolbar buttons are positioned at the top of the <textarea> and with a little bit of JS I can hide it by default and let it pop-up when text inside the <textarea> is selected.
Right now I have to delete everything thats default and create my own <textarea> + BBcode buttons.

[Robin W]

Great method Schmoo!

You can also create a page called “forums”, put your text there, and then add the shortcode

[bbp-forum-indexx]

but with only one x – sorry but even with code ticks the forum interprets this code, so cannot put it in exactly!

by the way the page doesn’t appear as an edit option in the toolbar, so you have to edit it via the dashboard, but that is how I achieved it.

[Shmoo]

Copy and paste the template files you would like to edit from the bbPress plugins folder to your theme folder.

The Forum ‘ home-page ‘ is known as an Archive template.

archive-forum.php

wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / defaults / extras / archive-forum.php

Copy it to your theme folder.

wp-content / themes / [ your_theme_name ] / here

screenshot! – Remember don’t Drag-/Drop it over but Copy-/Paste it.

You can’t really create a Child Theme for bbPress only.

But if you like to work with the Child Theme idea – I personally think it fails big time but some people really like it then just create a Child Theme if you would do the WP way.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

After that you simply add a folder called bbpress inside your Theme or Child Theme folder and copy-/paste the files over from your Plugins directory to your Theme or Child Theme directory.

wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / defaults / extras / All those files are general Theme template files and will be read first if you copy them inside your Child Theme folder

wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / defaults / bbpress / All those files are bbPress (forum) templates files and will be read first if you copy them inside your Child Theme/bbpress folder.

An image will show you better..

I would like to add some text to the default forums page. Is there a way to do this? Perhaps a plugin?

[Shmoo]

If the link will always be the same you can remove the Root and manually add a custom one.

This is default.
<?php bbp_breadcrumbs(); ?>

Remove the Root.
<?php bbp_breadcrumbs( array( 'include_home' => false ) ); ?>

Than add your custom link before the Breadcrumbs tag.
<a href="google.com">Google</a> <?php bbp_breadcrumbs( array( 'include_home' => false ) ); ?>

Something like that ?

[Shmoo]

Sorry, I need to close a few Tabs in my editor because I was looking inside the wrong template.

This gets the login form.
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'user-login' ); ?>

And of course that file is located where it should be:

wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / default / bbpress / form-user-login.php

Duh, stupid me!

[Shmoo]

Just curious,

When I sneakpeak in the ShortCode section I notice you can call the login form by.

<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'topic' ); ?>

This works great inside my templates and the bbPress login form pop’s up where I need him to be.

But now I need to add some classes for CSS reasons and I wandering where I can find the code-snippet of the default form used.

?

Almost all of the plugins that I use, I write myself. I Use jQuery 1.8.3. But there was a problem.

[John James Jacoby]

From http://api.jquery.com/live/ :

As of jQuery 1.7, the .live() method is deprecated. Use .on() to attach event handlers. Users of older versions of jQuery should use .delegate() in preference to .live().

Sounds like you’re using an old jQuery version, being enqueued from some other plugin.

[Shmoo]

First of all you should go to this location:

wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / default / css / bbpress.css

Copy-/Paste the bbpress.css file into your Theme’s folder.

Like so:

wp-content / themes / [ your-theme-name ] / css / bbpress.css

When there is none css folder inside you theme folder just create one.
What you’ve done right now is created you’re own custom stylesheet for bbPress that can’t be overwritten by software updates.

What styles you have to change I can’t tell from looking at your picture, but it’s pretty easy to find them.
Make sure you have a Webkit browser installed on your computer ( Google Chrome is reallt the best for this ). View your website and right-mouse-click on the element you would like to change and pick the option ” Inspect Element ” ( I think it’s called )

Now you have at the bottom all the style , there’s also a location + line number where to find the elements inside your bbpress.css file.

Look at this video for some instructions.

It’s not that difficult.

[Shmoo]

Go to the next path.

wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / default / bbpress / content-archive-forum.php

Copy the BOLD file into your Theme folder inside a new folder called [ bbpress ]

Like this:

wp-content / themes / [ your-theme-name ] / bbpress / content-archive-forum.php

Open the new ‘ content-archive-forum.php ‘ file and remove the following lines of code and save the changes.

<div class="bbp-search-form">

	<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'search' ); ?>

</div>

[Shmoo]

You can find the Widgets of bbPress right here.

wp-content / plugins / bbpress / includes / common / widgets.php

Thats the file you need to have. By default I don’t think you can drag your Widget-code out of there and start using it inside any other WP project. You probably have to add and redesign it to make it work.

[Shmoo]

The first block goes inside your functions.php i guess,

And all others you have to add where to show – inside your template files. example loop-single-forum.php

That fie can be found in your bbpress plugins directory.
wp-content / bbpress / templates / defaults / bbpress / ** here **

Don’t edit files from the bbpress folder inside your plugins folder because those will be overwritten when bbPress updates.
Just copy files that you need to edit towards your theme folder just like this:

wp-content / themes / [ your theme name ] / bbpress / ** here **

[axeleus]

After installing the plugin and view the topics, found in the Error Console

Error: TypeError: $(...).on is not a function
Source: /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/js/topic.js?ver=2.3.2
Line: 22

Fixed bug with changing the .on to .live at line 22 and 27

[mangtimo]

Encountered the same issue a couple of days ago.
I was able to fix this by going to Tools > Forums.
and try this option – Remap existing users to default forum roles
Although I actually did every option before checking if everything was working, I’m suspecting that one fixed the issue.

I’m running wordpress 3.5.1 and bbpress 2.3.2. I’m having difficulty viewing/editing a users profile.

When you click on the name of the person who started a topic, or on your own “Edit Profile” link, the site “spins” for quite awhile then displays a very large page that has a large number of that users profile displayed over and over again. If I click on one of the links in any of the profiles…like “Topics Started” all is well. I get the users profile with a list of the topics they have started to the right of it.

It’s just the first link that has the problem. It looks like thte code is caught in an infinite loop that just keeps returning the users profile over and over again.

I’m wondering if it could be the bbpress.php file causing the problem. I thought I had the default version with a few things commented out. Here’s what I have:

<?php 
      get_header();
?>
	<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

		<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

			<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>

			<?php // include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/inc/meta.php' ); ?>

			<div class="entry">

				<?php the_content(); ?>

				<?php wp_link_pages(array('before' => 'Pages: ', 'next_or_number' => 'number')); ?>

			</div>

			<?php edit_post_link('Edit this entry.', '<p>', '</p>'); ?>

		</div>
		
		<?php // comments_template(); ?>

		<?php endwhile; endif; ?>

<?php //get_sidebar(); ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Thanks in advance.

Hey,

It’s pretty simple, install User Role Editor plugin into your WP. Then visit plugin and reset all user roles to default and it’ll work…I had same problem but now it’s working..

Thanks

[TR Register]

Hi jwind,

You might want to consider S2 Member plugin that can restrict access to certan pages. It is straight forward to set up and there is also some integration with BBpress roles.

For each member you have to set the level of S2 membership, default S2 comes with 4 membership levels and you can assign different access levels to pages and so on.

Another feature is URI access restrictions which should be able to restrict access in the forums.

Instead of an error 404 the users are told that they have to sign in to view the protected contents.

My client has a bbPress/BuddyPress/s2Member forum site with about 400+ members. The site has been running very well for about a year now. This morning I got a call from my client that the Forums are showing Page Not Found on child-forums only. The parent forum pages and topic pages are still displaying accurately. The only change made recently was updating to bbPress 2.3.2, but I can’t say for sure that the problem began immediately after updating.

We are running the following (all up-to-date versions):

• WordPress 3.5.1
• bbPress 2.3.2
• BuddPress 1.7.2
• s2Member Pro v130513

I have tried all of the following with no results:

• Re-saving Permalinks
• Changing Permalinks Structure
• Remapping to Default Roles
• Changing Archive Slugs and Single Slugs
• Flushing Rewrite Rules
• Adding some Capabilities Hacks (removed after they didn’t work)
• Deactivating every plugin (including bbPress and reactivating it)
• No new pages have been added
• No new Custom Post Types have been added

I get the same issue regardless of User Role (Keymaster, Admin, Participant, Moderator, etc…)

I am at a loss and my client is getting frustrated. Please help if you can. Thanks!
