Hi!!
I have the bbpress loggin widget embedded in my forum page, however, the login/logout buttons have a font that is unreadable (white font on a white background). I cannot locate where to change the font for the login/logout buttons. Can anyone help?
Thanks!!!
I just converted my forums from the standalone version of bbpress to the plugin version of bbpress. Even thought we’re not talking about the same thing here, I did have to experiment a little bit with the settings during the import to finally get it right around the third time.
@plasterius Find the full-width template of your theme if you have any, open it with a text editor and save as bbpress.php and place that into your theme’s folder in serer. What theme are you using?
@plasterius did you create bbpress.php from your own theme’s full-width template per info posted above?
@supernaturalbrews Re full-width BuddyPress pages: I see that you’re already using BP 1.7 beta 1, good for you! Make a copy of page-no-sidebar.php file from parent theme and Save As buddypress.php in your child theme folder.
To remove the vertical dotted line in the midst of full-width BP and bbP pages, add the following to your child theme’s style.css file:
body.BuddyPress #posts,
body.bbPress #posts {
background: transparent none;
}
@yetanotherlogin you can start off with the proposed patch at https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1933 adjust it to taste
@mercime
If you look at the homepage there is a vertical dotted line separating the main content and the sidebar. Not huge thing, but I would like it removed from the bbpress forum. I figure once that is removed I have a clean template to go with.

I know its a separate plugin but would you know how to make all the buddypress pages full width?
Hello
A WordPress-based site that I read often uses BBPress for its forum.
It currently doesn’t support a mobile version, making it a pain to access from a smartphone.
Is there a good add-on so that BBPress can offer two versions of a forum, depending on whether it’s accessed from a desktop browser or a smartphone browser?
Thank you.
I am running Esplanade theme with buddy press + bbpress.
Posts/ replies are not being displayed.
The forums recognise that there are posts there but not displaying.
Under activity of buddypress the posts appear, so they are being stored.I guess?
Have tried changing theme, removing and readding all plugins no luck.
Heave read somewhere it might be do with functions.php?
If so what do I need to add or change?
Help would be greatly appreciated!
Newb here.
I am not seeing that on any of my test sites… 2.2.4 and 2.3
Can you try using Twenty Eleven or Twenty Twelve theme rather than a custom theme and of course with all other plugins disabled and let me know.
Try using FTP to delete the plugin directly from /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/
(I would make sure you have a backup first of your hosts files and your WP database)
It is built in… bbp_has_topics can be set using orderby to any of ‘author’, ‘date’, ‘title’, ‘modified’, ‘parent’ or ‘random’
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/includes/topics/template-tags.php#L84
Have a look in the plugins as there are a couple that do what you are looking for.
Plugins
bbPress 2.x is now a fully integrated plugin for WordPress.
Please see https://bbpress.org/ & https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/
(Closing this topic to prevent it being resurrected again)
See this to get started with using custom templates https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/
I don’t even see that bbPress is installed…
bbPress 2.x is a plugin for WordPress just like any ‘other’ WordPress plugin and is no longer a ‘stand alone’ web app needing a bb-config.php. Everything is stored in the main WP database primarily using ‘Custom Post Types’ for the forum bits and all user bits are just WP users.

Hi guys,
I have a forums site though WordPress and bbPress and would like to know if the feature stated below is possible or hopefully created.
Hopefully it’s possible for there an alerts button in the menu bar that shows them recent replies to subscribed topics on a page.
What I need is for every time someone has replied to a topic they are subscribed to, in the menu bar the alerts link will have an icon with how many alerts (unread) eg (2) in an icon. This would require the alerts page too.
I saw this on forums powered by another forum software. (PAID)
I use the latest bbPress and WordPress.
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,

My goal is to share one DB between wp and bbpress, one registration, seamless for users. The process of accomplishing this seems to have changed.
There’s all sorts of documentation on this topic and I’ve spent the last five hours trying to find my answer before bothering the good people of the internet, so I would greatly appreciate a hand now. It would appear that in recent changes, bb-config.php no longer exists? Installation process where you can fill out DB details in an easy form process seems to be gone?
Integrating with WordPress
So the settings must be in a config file somewhere! This infamous “WordPress Integration” section must be somewhere!
I’m using WordPress 3.5.1 and BBpress 2.2.4
Thanks.
I just tested this and cannot reproduce it using the latest bbPress beta.
Can you try the with the latest beta and if it is still an issue open a ticket on trac.
bbPress 2.3 Beta 2
This is fixed for the next release of bbPress.
you need to use something like GD bbPress Tools to enable shortcodes for bbpress

I just started using bbpress 2.2.4. I’m using Twenty-twelve 1.1 theme, WP 3.5.1 and Impact Page Builder. When I create a forum, I can’t assign my Impact template to it. The forum page is just plain white. How do I fix this? Here is the link to the forum page: http://northidahocvma.org/forums/forum/members-input?preview=true
I would like the forum page to look something like this one:

Thanks so much!
