bbPress 2.1 now has built-in theme support, try using the steps outlined here:
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

[Ronileco]

Sorry for the long time it took me to respond.
This is my problem:
my bbpress uses permalinks and prettylinks which makes all the user links use the user name instead of ID.

for example:
http://www.mysite.com/forum/users/Roni%20Cohen
this leads to 404.
instead of
http://www.mysite.com/forum/users/524 (the user id)
this leads to the user page.

What should I change in my wordpress / bbpress in order to support those kind of links.
I already set mod_rewrite but i guess some rules are missing or that i’m using something in the wrong way.

I found the part in the code that handles this but I don’t want to change that to use id hard coded.

Am i clear now?

I am pulling my hair out on this. I have tried getting bbPress to work with a WordPress site using a custom theme and evidently I’m missing something because it just isn’t happening. Here’s what I’ve done based on what I could find for instructions so far:

• I installed and activated the plugin through the wordpress admin.
• I created a test forum and a test topic through the wordpress admin.
• I created a child theme folder, named the same as the primary theme appended with ‘-child’.
• I copied the contents of the wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-twentyten into the child theme folder.
• I updated the style.css file ‘Template:’ line to refer to the parent theme.
• I added ‘add_theme_support( ‘bbpress’ );’ to the main theme’s functions.php.

When I go to the forum via http://www.carolina-business.org/forums/, I get a page that spits out a section titled with the most recent post title and a huge amount of blank space with the forum list at the bottom of the section. This is followed by a section for every other post on the site, each of these containing the forum list.

When I go to the forum via http://www.carolina-business.org/forums/forum/test-forum-1, I get another page that shows all of the posts in the site. I get the same result via http://www.carolina-business.org/forums/topic/test-topic-1/.

What I’m trying to achieve is for the forum to appear in the content area of the site, within one of the content frames (the white box with the green header and gray border.)

Can anyone tell me what I am doing incorrectly/not doing? Thanks!

By default you see only the ‘Red X’ for both favorites and subscribed topics on your user profile page eg. /forums/users/username/

Are you using the latest version v2.1.1 and WordPress 3.41?

[Stephen Edgar]

This has been patched #1886 and will be in the 2.12 release later this week.

You need to use a plugin like this https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gd-bbpress-attachments/

HELP!

I’m having issues with my BBpress WordPress installation as of late (since I did a plugin update to 2.1.1) on all pages I get the error:

Warning: get_class() called without object from outside a class in /nfs/c05/h01/mnt/77944/domains/charterproject.ca/html/wp-content/themes/charterprojectbb/functions.php on line 529

I tracked this in the functions file in my theme that controls the WP theme and the BBPress theme.
the code is:
if ( 'bbPress' == get_class( $bbp ) ) {
$bbp->theme_compat->theme = new BBP_Twenty_Ten();
}
endif;

I’m not a wiz at PHP so I’m not sure why this causing this error but it does result in the form being quite non-functioning, please help! you can view the site for reference at : http://charterproject.ca

At least can I have it verified whether it is a bug in the script or not?

[newpress]

1. I activated bbPress (Twenty Ten) theme

2. Enabled Group Forums within bbpress settings (buddypress default bbpress wasnt installed)

3. Checked “Allow BuddyPress Groups to have their own forums”

4. Group Forums Parent is “group-forums” and its a category (I also tried a forum for that but it didnt work either)

http://fantastic7.x10.mx/forums/forum/group-forums/

1. A group forum that doesnt work

http://fantastic7.x10.mx/groups/morb/forums/morb/

1. A thread, topic within the same group forum that didnt work and still is

http://fantastic7.x10.mx/groups/morb/forums/topic/actu-tutoc/

1. No plugins activated other than bbpress and buddypress

2. I made the above group forum sit at the forum root. But it was also fruitless

3. selected Forum Root as group forums Parent (the thing that isnt recommended) but it was futile too

4. “Works fine if I navigate to it directly”, I seriously doubt that anyone would do that

[John James Jacoby]

This is not for bbPress 2.1 and above. You can use normal WordPress pages for this.

[John James Jacoby]

There are a few tags you could use, but the normal bbPress CSS isn’t written to be broken up and conditionally loaded; you’ll need to do that yourself. They are conveniently called is functions:

Hi. I’m new to bbpress and I’m trying to install the front page text plugin but I can’t get it to work. Can someone give me some more detailed guidance than what’s on the page here, http://www.fldtrace.com/wordpress/bbpress-front-page-text-plugin.

I have the plugin installed and I can activate it from the admin account, but when I click on the “front page text” button, I get an error message that says, “There is no administration page at the requested address. Please check the address you entered and try again.”

Any ideas?

Hey everyone,

Unfortunately I’m having another minor hiccup in my bbPress 2.1 implementation. I’ve done some fairly heavy modifying of bbpress user profile pages, and somewhere along the line I have induced wordpress to flag profiles as error-404.

My site homepage is http://tamrielfoundry.com, which can be accessed using username=test and password=test.

My own user profile page http://tamrielfoundry.com/users/atropos/ works just fine, no 404.

A different user (who has not made any posts, which could be the cause) gets error-404 as a class in the body declaration. http://tamrielfoundry.com/users/blade/

Regardless, the fact that this content is getting flagged as 404 doesn’t seem to affect the page actually displaying the relevant content, however obviously it would be preferable if I can get the site to recognize user pages for existing users as non-404.

Let me know if I can provide any relevant info, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Andrew

Not sure I understand the problem. Spaces aren’t valid in URLs unless they are encoded.

[John James Jacoby]

You have enough conflicting slugs where I suspect only you can configure your way out of them.

http://fantastic7.x10.mx/forums/forum/group/ – Broken
http://fantastic7.x10.mx/forums/forum/group-forums/ – Broken
http://fantastic7.x10.mx/groups/morb/forums/topic/actu-tutoc/ – Works
http://fantastic7.x10.mx/groups/morb/forums/topic/actu-tutoc/page/2/ – Works fine if I navigate to it directly

Could be something with your theme, could be other plugins, or it could be a bug. You’re a bit on your own to narrow things down. I’d start with checking error logs and looking into why the page output stops on the broken links above.

Expanding my search to include all of WordPress resulted in this fine code I just plop in to my functions.php that’ll remove it:

function the_title_trim($title) {
// Might aswell make use of this function to escape attributes
$title = attribute_escape($title);
// What to find in the title
$findthese = array(
    '#Protected:#', // # is just the delimeter
    '#Private:#',
    '#Privat:#'
);
// What to replace it with
$replacewith = array(
    'a', // What to replace protected with
    'b' // What to replace private with
);
// Items replace by array key
$title = preg_replace($findthese, $replacewith, $title);
return $title;

}
add_filter(‘the_title’, ‘the_title_trim’);

It’s a WordPress core issue, and one I’m not sure we can easily filter out. I’ll take another look at this for 2.2, but I think it’s hard-coded in.

problem 2 was solved by adding

#bbpress-forums div.reply {
height: auto;}

however the other problem is still not solved and I believe the style.css is missing files.

This is litteraly my whole css file

I am fairly new to web design but I have a feeling there must be more somewhere.

Does anyone know what code I could input to this file in order to fix problem one?

Also as a bonus could anyone give me a code that could work for changing the background of the forum colour?

I apologize for my “rookieness”

Thanks in advance!

[Ronileco]

Any new info about this one?
I am suffering from a similar problem where my pretty URL: http://www.mysite/forum/users/User Name/ doesn’t work but http://www.mysite/forum/users/userId/ works great.

How can i fix my permalink or should i change the code to use userID instead? maybe redirect through .htaccess file is the answer?

[newpress]

side wide forums here

wordpress latest
buddypress latest
bbpress latest

I use bbpress for site wide forums and for buddypress group forums. It works fine. Didnt install buddypress’s tweaked version.

I set the number for both topics and replies at 5. But cant navigate to the rest of the topic list and replies.
here it is

Anything is possible, but you’ll currently need to write your own widget to make it happen. You’ll most likely want to strip out any formatting, and limit the length also (similar to a WordPress excerpt.)

If you’re able to make this happen and contribute your changes upstream, it would be a great addition to bbPress core for 2.2.

[John James Jacoby]

Hi. It’s been less than a day, on a weekend. I kindly ask that you please dial back your expectations.

That said, I can’t duplicate what you’re experiencing, and it would be a great help to have more information to assist you. What theme are you using? Did you customize it? What plugins are you using? Have you tried disabling them to see if there is a conflict?

Pagination, and adjusting the values, works fine. I’ve set them to ‘5’ at testbp.org so you can see for yourself:
