Hi guy! I FIXED IT, be in heaven again.
Here’s my solution, as I said before, it’s about your theme. You should browse to your WordPress theme folder, open the style.css and if your problem are the same as mine you should find some code like this:
.reply {
margin: 10px 20px 0 0;
text-align: left;
text-transform: none;
font-size: 12px;
position: relative;
height: 25px
overflow: hidden;
position: relative;
right: -20px;
}
Now you just simply put 2 lines
height: 25px
overflow: hidden;
in the comment or just delete it, cause I found in bbpress.css there is the id name reply, it was overide by WordPress.
If you need more details, email me.

Hi Keymaster,

can you give us a rough estimate, when 2.2 will be released?

[SK]

Ok, so how do I set Hungarian language for bbPress when my WordPress is a multilingual installation with WPML?

[zaerl]

Hi. The wordpress gettext template file is bbp-languages/bbpress.pot. You have to use a specific program for translating the strings. I use POEdit cause it works on all my machines.

http://www.poedit.net/download.php

Open POEdit and “create a file from template” on the “file” menu. There are a lot of strings taken out of the context and so I suggest you to check the source file line if you have problems.

Building a dictionary from widely used translations (WordPress/Akismet/Others) can speed up the process cause a lot of strings are the same of WordPress.

[John James Jacoby]

I’d hold off, as bbPress 2.2 will address this specifically.

[nyks-barton]

Looks perfect. As I only want to give Editors the forum-moderation, I think, I only have to add the first part of the code.

A small hint: as I understand the code, there the code-comment in the 2nd part i incorrect:s
$role = get_role( ‘author’ ); // gets the editor role
It gets the author-role, isnt it?

hi thank you for the quick response, helps a lot when you are trying to work your way through a problem. I must first say though I am new to this wordpress php bbpress thing.

SO you mentioned I use bbpress-functions.php? Can you be more specific I know you already are but I would like to know the exact steps to take if you will.

I know changing the following code in bbpress.php for the plugins>bbpress file. but if I change this than the updates will delete the changes I make so therefore I need to make a child theme. So where do I paste the following code in bbpress-functions.php?

public static function register_post_types() {

// Define local variable(s)
$post_type = array();

/** Forums ************************************************************/

// Forum labels
$post_type[‘labels’] = array(
‘name’ => __( ‘Enchanted’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘menu_name’ => __( ‘Enchanted’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘singular_name’ => __( ‘Forum’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘all_items’ => __( ‘All Forums’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘add_new’ => __( ‘New Forum’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘add_new_item’ => __( ‘Create New Forum’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘edit’ => __( ‘Edit’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘edit_item’ => __( ‘Edit Forum’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘new_item’ => __( ‘New Forum’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘view’ => __( ‘View Forum’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘view_item’ => __( ‘View Forum’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘search_items’ => __( ‘Search Forums’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘not_found’ => __( ‘No forums found’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘not_found_in_trash’ => __( ‘No forums found in Trash’, ‘bbpress’ ),
‘parent_item_colon’ => __( ‘Parent Forum:’, ‘bbpress’ )
);

I installed bbPress 2.1.3 on my WordPress 3.4.2 installation and I am having the problem that user profiles do not work. Whenever I hover over the name profile I can see that the URL points to domain.com/forums/user/admin but when I click on it I am returned straight to my blog’s homepage, but with domain.com/forums/user/admin in my browser’s URL line.

Others had related problems too, as I found in this forum, but they were slightly different, and none of the fixes suggested in these other threads helped.

Does anyone know what might be going on here?

Thank you for any ideas or leads,
Guido

Hi, funny thing is I currently want to add sidebar for my bbpress forum plugin. It alway shows the wordpress sidebar!

Anyway, to remove sidebar use the fullwidth forum like this: http://www.ytecongcong.com/forums/
Just follow
1. Clone page.php of your WP themes and rename it to forum.php
2. use BP Tweaks WP plugins to choose forum instead of page as default
3. Open forum.php, remove the php code content php get_sidebar()

Hi,

I’ve installed bbpress and set up a test forum.

When viewing the forum it show me a nice full-width page without sidebar, but when I click on a topic, bbpress redirects me to a full-width forum page with the sidebar under the forum (while it shouldn’t show up).

Has anyone an idea how I can fix this?

How it should be: http://www.gebetendoorhonden.be/forum/

sidebar showing (wrong): http://www.gebetendoorhonden.be/forums/forum/te-koop-aangeboden

btw: this also happens with standard wordpress-themes (twenty-ten). I select full-width page and when clicking on topics I get redirected to page with sidebar!?

Dear regards,
Bart

You can also use this plugin to assign the forum participant role to all users across a multisite network.

[Erlend]

@masada there is already a fully functional “unread posts” plugin on wordpress.org, and a new one coming from a developer that I know (it approaches the problem a bit differently, so it is its own plugin instead of an extension of “Mark as Read”) should be out in a couple of days.

[Stephen Edgar]

Start by finding a WordPress theme and then you can customize bbPress to look the same as your WordPress theme https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

Hello! I just want to first thank everyone for this great plugin forum.

I have enabled “Enable Fancy Editor” in settings > forums , however my tinymce editor does not show. I simply see the generic HTML editor. Is there a known fix for this problem?

I’m using the default wordpress twenty eleven theme. Thanks!

[Olivier Lettinga]

I would like use the TwentyTen bbpress theme(or even rather a theme with lists instead of tables) and customize it for my own use.

The advised way to do this: ‘making a copy of the plugins\bbpress\bbp-themes\bbp-twentyten folder and copying it to themes\mytheme’ works.
This however makes a huge mess of my child theme folder, instead I would rather copy it to ‘themes\mytheme\subfolder’. Is this possible and how to I accomplish this?

Using WordPress: 3.4.2 and buddyPress: 1.6.1 and bbPress: 2.1.3.

[sourpatch]

I was wondering if anyone can tell me please if you can modify bbpress.php file and incorporate it into a child theme in the wordpress themes folder.
I tried making a bbpress.php in my child theme folder and the result was a blank screen. It did not work.
Your advice is appreciated!

I’m using the twenty ten wordpress theme and installed the bbpress plugin

[HululusLabs]

I installed wordpress and the bbpress plugin from built-in plugin installer and made a forum which I previewed , which was fine during preview, but after I published it, the forum returns HTTP error 404 on the forum itself and when viewing the preview. This is my second installation with the same problem. A forum on my previous install showed up after a while, but the others didn’t. After following advice I changed the permalinks back to default and all the forums came with the same HTTP error 404. My website structure is “…com/worpress/index.php/forums/forum/…” for some reason.

Hi Everybody, Guys !! ^_^
Please, I have a question.
My Forums shows me this message:

The qTranslate Editor has disabled itself because it hasn't been tested with your WordPress version yet. This is done to prevent WordPress from malfunctioning. You can reenable it by clicking here (may cause data loss! Use at own risk!). To remove this message permanently, please update qTranslate to the corresponding version.

The point is that: Even if when I’ve installed the bbPress qTranslate was not updated, so this message was right … Now qTranslate it is updated, but by the way bbPress doesn’t seems to see the change and it doesn’t shows me forum-contents by language.

The 1.st link in the message (reenable qTranslate) doesn’t works …
What to do, please, if I want to build a multi-language Forum ??

Another deal:
Why bbPress shows me this ugly editor ??

If I click on Visual then it is good, but the 1-st one is the defaul one …

THANK YOU !!
Pietro

The topic title “Navigating Through The Program” is a topic I created in the forum “New Members” of my site. I have a test username and have tried the role of User and Contributor and they can see the title of the topic, but when they click on the topic, only the reply is there and they can’t see the actual topic’s content which the Administrator wrote. How do I get my members to see the topics and posts? I only want them to see and reply on the posts and forums, as well as create their own topics and forums but not create pages or posts in WordPress.

[sambedingfield]

Just a heads up, I’ve been reading this and similar posts and I can’t find a solid solution.

I can confirm I wasn’t updating anything other than bbPress and I do not have BuddyPress installed nor any other plugins conflicting.

Any help will be much appreciated!

[sambedingfield]

Just got exactly the same issue whilst updating today. Fatal error: Class ‘BBP_Theme_Compat’ not found in …/wp-content/themes/***/functions.php on line 32

I had just updated to bbPress 2.1.3
– Using WordPress 3.4.2
– ‘toolbox‘ theme
– a child theme which was a clone of bbPress 2.0 standard theme

Line 32 of my functions.php reads if ( ! function_exists( 'toolbox_setup' ) )

>> You’ll want to try bbPress with some other WordPress themes, and see if they play nicer together out of the box.

Already tried. It only works with twnetyten (bbpress) theme. It does not work with twnetyeleven. I’ll download a few more and give it a try.

[John James Jacoby]

It’s been less than a day, and these forums move pretty slowly; when someone has something to add, they will.

Until then, it’s safe to say that your theme is most likely the culprit here. You’ll want to try bbPress with some other WordPress themes, and see if they play nicer together out of the box.

[kausikc]

I guess that no one has seen this issue. I have this problem with the setting “bbPress Default (bbp-theme-compat)” when WordPress theme is anything other than twenty ten (bbpress). Just nothing shows up with other WP themes.

Warning newcomers about your opinion, or your incorrect observation?

Regarding development speed, see:

• Changelog – https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/log
• 2.2 Milestone – https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/milestone/2.2

bbPress has never had unread posts in core, it’s been too complex and costly of a feature to include in core bbPress in the past. Maybe you can help implement it, and speed up the development cycles?

To more acutely answer your question, absolutely yes – you can build a community that lacks unread posts. We’ve build the entire WordPress.org ecosystem around bbPress.

Did you know the plugins API that powers the plugins pages in your WordPress dashboard is powered by bbPress? Or that the 5 million users on WordPress.org are all linked by users tables originally setup inside of a bbPress installation? Or that WordPress.org doesn’t run WordPress; it runs bbPress?

A hammer isn’t very good until you hit something with it.
