It appears that scripts and styles in the default theme are being added regardless of whether I’m viewing the forums or not.
For example: I have bbpress setup at /forums/ but I’m seeing /bbpress.css in the header of /blog/ and other pages.
At a minimum, head_scripts() is outputting a jQuery document ready call that I can’t be having all over my site.
hey thank’s a lot for your help. I’ve added the code but it doesn’t look like it worked.
this is the file I had to modify
/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
ok, so you’ll need to edit
web/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
line 45 shows the avatar, so try adding a line 46
<?php echo bbp_get_user_post_count( $user_id ); ?>
haven’t tried it !
Wordpress 3.7.1, bbPress 2.4.1
Users (all roles except Administrators) cannot see the first post in any topic, regardless of it being their own post or not. Changing forum role doesn’t do anything. Only making them Administrator on the wordpress site does. Tried setting default theme and disabling other plugins to no avail.
Not using Wishlist Member and never did. Unsure how to debug, and seen other topics strand with no solution.
nicoblue: I checked your website and – as far as I can see – you solved the problem. I’ve the same issue now; could you help me with the solution?
Wordpress version: 3.5.1
BBpress version: 2.3.2
Theme: Default Twenty-eleven (from earlier WP) with my own minor modifications
The problem is the same: the bbpress forum style on the full-width pages are working flawless. But when I use the shortcode, the floating elements are broken, for example the pagination is messed up. The styling was okay a year ago, but I updated bbpress not so long ago, after I did not checked the shortcode pages (my bad…), and yesterday I faced with the problem.
I show you the difference:
On full-width page, without shortcode (perfect):
Link: http://www.radu.hu/forum/f/kerdesek-a-pontos-adatokkal-kapcsolatban/
With shortcode, pagination and other styles are broken:
Link: http://www.radu.hu/hasznos-eszkozok/jo-minosegu-backteszt-adatok/adatok-letoltese/
At the bottom of the page, the new topic box (the border) is wrong:
Link: http://www.radu.hu/hasznos-eszkozok/jo-minosegu-backteszt-adatok/adatok-letoltese/
If anyone could give me a hint… 🙂
I have been coming to some realizations as to what exactly is happening and some ideas on how to tackle the issues. The solutions I will propose will not be optimal, but better than the current default.
When using bbPress for new user registration they are actually using the WordPress system for user registration. Now I have tried a few plugins to avoid spam with user registration but most seem old and none seem to work out of the box. Welp, if you cant beat them, join them. Instead of using the bbPress registration form maybe I will direct the user to the WordPress backend, or a page similar to the default WordPress backend that I stylize to look like my site’s page. There I can include links back to the forum and they dont get this feeling like they have left my site.
Regarding the registration email, this is actually the WordPress registration email. You can change this to your liking with a host of plugins.
Overall I think there are a lot of rough edges. I cannot ask for too much since this is free, but given the number of support issues revolving around these topics it would be cool if bbPress could incorporate these features on its own. It would make this great plugin just that much cooler.
Cheers!
I have tried to install bbPress, but am having issues with the Forum Index page.
This is the forum index: Forums. However, the actual forums work fine, as you can see on a test forum I created called Suggestions.
Any ideas as to why it’s doing this? I’ve followed the few instructions I could find, including the page about Theme Compatibility. I added the bbPress theme files to my own theme, as suggested in those intructions.
Also, is there a way for the link to just be ‘http://thewhitesharks.co.uk/forums/suggestions/’ instead of ‘http://thewhitesharks.co.uk/forums/forum/suggestions/’? Seems a bit long to me…
It’s as if there is a php file missing in pugins\bbpress\templates\default\extras that displays the search results. Where can I find that?
As per the theme support page, I went to bbpress\templates\default\ and copied the bbpress and css folders into my theme folder. I also copied archive-forum.php and single-user.php in to the theme folder.
I made a few modifications to archive-forum.php and single-user.php to fit into the page and remove the sidebar.
Seems like most functions are working now except Search. It still goes to a wonky page. Where do I go to look to fix that?
Hi there.
This is the page in question: http://www.michiganracquetball.net/forums/
I’m wondering if there is a way for me to remove the “posted by … ” and the “categories” at the top and the bottom of the forum content area. I think those might be related to the metadata of the forum (the page thinks the forum is a “post”?), but I haven’t a clue where to find what is generating that or how to get rid of it.
Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Jen
I am currently using BBPress and will integrate it with MediaWiki.
However, the problem is as my forum’s index is set to display as a shortcode on a page called ‘Forums’, which is set as my site’s homepage the breadcrumbs display as follows:
Forums >> Forums >> Digital Terrestrial
See: http://www.channelwiki.org/forums/?forum=digital-terrestrial
As you can see the second ‘forums’ link takes a user to the default BBPress Forum index (not my sites homepage). How can this second ‘Forums’ link be removed?
The second issue is, as users are signing in via MediaWiki and will then be signed in to WordPress when they access the site automatically, how can I disable sign in via WordPress and registration, but still allow access to private messages and sign in via the wiki? The WP-Admin bar will also be hidden
Another issue is that I do not know how to redirect users back to the wiki. I’ve though about placing a ‘Log in’ link in the site’s main navigation, which links to the wiki’s login page but I’m not sure how to redirect them back.
Many thanks in advance,
channelwiki
I am ashamed to say, that it seems that I found a solution that was staring me in the face in the settings panel for bbpress. I simply disabled the “Allow users to subscribe to topics” field, and that has done the trick well enough, sorry for the trouble.
tried to sign up for an account so that I can see this, but the signup worked, but login didn’t. Maybe you need to authorise?
I disabled all of the plugins except bbpress, and I also tried adding that code to bbpress/includes/common/functions.php and also to my themes functions.php . Maybe I am doing something wrong though, is there perhaps a way to hide the check box? That would work just as well for me.
Without spending too much time try
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-single-topic.php
is the likely file
Probably before or after line 24 if you want it at the top
Les us know if that works, as it’ll help people later one (and I might try it at some stage!)
Another plugin sounds possible – try disabling them one at a time and see if without one it works ok.
Otherwise, you could try adding this to your functions file
function pw_bbp_auto_checK_subscribe( $checked, $topic_subscribed ) {
if( $topic_subscribed == 0 )
$topic_subscribed = true;
return checked( $topic_subscribed, true, false );
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_form_topic_subscribed', 'pw_bbp_auto_checK_subscribe', 10, 2 );
That sets it to checked, so presumably if you changed line
$topic_subscribed = true;to
$topic_subscribed = false;
it should uncheck it
Give it a try
Yes, I am not sure if I have another plugin that might be affecting it, but it is currently checked by default.
the path is just like for the version 2.4.1
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
As JarretC wrote before
Change the line 30
<?php bbp_list_forums(); ?>
to
<?php bbp_list_forums( array ( 'separator' => '<br />' ) ); ?>
Thanx JarretC
ok, try this – I have culled it from varous other posts, in particular
Full-Width Forum
Don’t swear it will work, but give it a go
1. Create a page called “forums”,
2. make this page a full width page – if your theme doesn’t support this, then you’ll need to create a child theme and add a full page template.
3. Put this shortcode on the page [bbp-forum-index]
4. edit the following file
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css/bbpress.css
by removing the left float from div.bbp-breadcrumb(line 405)
5. In your style.css add the following
.bbPress #primary {
display: none;
}
.bbp-forums {
width: 100%;
}
let us know if that works
Hi,
I managed to create a TinyMCE plugin and add it to wordpress editor (which is the same as bbpress).
So far so good.
Using
$ args ['teeny'] = false;
config, my tinymce plugin’s button show normal.
But, I need to be displayed in the default editor for bbpress, in teeny editor.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot.
by default it is unchecked – is your site the other way round?
Yes, although I am not sure why.
I presume you mean checked by default?
Yes, although I am not sure why.
There are two ways for achieving what you need and it took me quite a long time to figure it out too:
1) You create a child theme just like you did but what I didn’t know is that, after doing it (not forgetting to declare the parent template and the “@import” path accordingly in the css file located inside your child theme folder), you NEED to activate the child theme in your theme section of your WordPress admin. This last part is the one I didn’t know about, which is why it didn’t work at first.
2) the easier and a little more messier technique is straight forward:
Just write your custom BBpress css styles at the end of your main theme css file. It’ll work.
And if you need to change the bbpress template files, just copy the needed files inside your main WordPress theme folder and make the changes there. These files will overwrite the default ones that are in the original bbpress template folder. As simple as that
Both will work and will not be a problem in case of a WordPress or BBpres update.
The first technique is to be preferred because you will gather your BBpress children files within a same recognizable folder when the second technique will blend the BBpress children files among the ones of your main theme. Not to mention that if you decide later to switch the WordPress theme, you will have to extract the bbpress children files and styles from the previous WordPress theme to put them in the the new one.
But ultimately, the result will be the same.
Hope it helped.
