2 posts means that there are two posts inside of the topic, 1 voice means that only one person made both of those posts. So if you had something that said “This topic contains 15 replies, has 4 voices” etc. it would mean that the topic has 15 posts, but only 4 people posting.
Ok, sorry for that… Still, im am new to all this. I am not afraid to get my hands dirty. But what exactly should i be looking for in the css code? I tried testing the default bbpress theme and the problem is not there… So yes, this is a theme problem… :/
we have to major notifications for a bbpress topic: 1-Voices 2-Posts
what are differences between them? and what in voices?
Hi, I’m trying to create a bbpress Registration page so that users can register and start posting on my website’s forum. I’ve read through the tutorials on how to do this but there’s a problem. After adding a new Page, under Page Attributes we are supposed to select “bbPress – User Register” as the template. But I don’t see this as an option on the dropdown menu at all.
In fact, the dropdown menu has nothing related to bbPress at all. I’m starting to wonder if the plugin wasn’t installed properly, but the rest of it seems to work fine (eg. I can create forums/threads etc and these are showing up).
Any help on this would be much appreciated! Thanks.
FYI, I’m using bbPress 2.1.3, BuddyPress 1.6.1 and WP 3.4.2

@hypnoscribe – Please don’t post big code dumps; it’s not easy to read and easily accessible by linking to your site, a pastebin, or any other place.
@netweb – If you’re going to answer questions, make sure they’re the correct answers. 🙂
Looking just a bit deeper in Inspector, you’ll notice the CSS isn’t part of WordPress or bbPress. Like @nguyenkinh said, this is a problem with the CSS in your theme.
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.

Ok, so how do I set Hungarian language for bbPress when my WordPress is a multilingual installation with WPML?
There’s no such thing as BBLANG in bbPress +2.0. It is a global define’d constant of the old standalone branch.
SKParticipant
In spite of that BBLANG configuration, it seems the forum page is still using English.
<html xmlns:fb="http://ogp.me/ns/fb#" xmlns:og="http://ogp.me/ns#" dir="ltr" lang="en-US">
SKParticipant
Rookie question. Wrong question. My apologies.
My wp-config actually says
define('WPLANG', '');
define('BBLANG', 'hu_HU');
I was thrown off simply by the fact that bbPress doesn’t seem to be picking up Hungarian strings from the language file.
SKParticipant
Is bbPress language defined by WPLANG in wp-config?
I would like my bbPress language to different from my WP language.
I use WPML and have a multilingual site. For several reasons, I have set my WP Default language as English.
I wish to deploy bbPress as a Hungarian language forum. I will not have forums in other languages.
What do I do?
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.
Hey All,
I’ve recently installed bbpress on a fresh Qordpress site. I’ve created forums and categories fine. My issue is now when i make a new topic, either via wp-admin or the website, i am unable to post in some of the forums/categories even as an admin.
If i make a topic through the wp-admin menu the categories are greyed out and through the site i dont have the option to post at all. All the categories and forums are set to public and open and have all been ordered.
The site is . One of the forums that currently are unavailable is the Work in Progress forum.
I’ve noticed if i delete the category and re-add it i can use it again. But some will re-lock.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have looked around the forums already so if I have missed a thread already please link me to it.
Many Thanks, John

I’d hold off, as bbPress 2.2 will address this specifically.
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
Hello
I’d like to translate bbPress into Arabic for both the front and back end.
Where can I started?
Please someone to guide me to the place of the language file so I can get stated and any other recommendations.
I do not mean that someone do the translation for me but I will do the whole thing myself then share it here for all.
@robotcake Try running the ‘Repair Forums’ tool https://codex.bbpress.org/repair-forums/
Hello, that works pretty good. Thanks a lot.
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 have installed the bbpress forum plugin here: http://buyclassifiedscript.com/forums/ but the forum is aligned to the left and its full width. I managed to change the css to 1000px but its still to the left. Any suggestions how I can center it?
bbpress: 2.1.3 (TwentyTen package)
WP: 3.4.2
This is fixed in the soon-to-be-released version 2.2 of bbPress.
Actually I installed the 2.2 into a clean site without buddypress and it works if I put the files in the extra back to the bbpress plugin root folder, but with the same method if I install it on the buddypress enabled site it won’t work, the topic edit, merge, split and reply edit will not work at all, any idea?
