I just updated to the latest bbPress version from 2.0 and I don’t the new fancy editing elements in my forum.
I am currently using an edited version of the twentyten theme that I am using as a child theme. Do I need to update the theme in order to see the new fancy editing elements? How can I fix this problem? Thanks,

PS: I am also running WordPress 3.4.2

Copy the bbpress.css from the bbpress plugin directory to yourtheme/bbpress/bbpress.css and then edit the CSS/font size from there 🙂

Are you running bbPress 2.1.1?

[Jared Atchison]

I believe bbPress uses wp_mail() and does not explicitly set a “from”, so wordpress@domain.com is used by default.

Any updates on this topic?

I need to convert my post comments into replies. How to do it?

[Garindan]

Hi all, I want to hide my theme’s breadcrumbs for all the bbpress forum pages, since bbpress breadcrumbs are used for those. I know I simply need the css ‘#breadcrumbs { display: none !important; }’, but what file can i add it to so all forum pages use it? I’m using the bbpress compatibility theme. Many thanks!

Edit: I tried adding it to bbpress.css hoping that it would only affect bbpress post types but it hid them across the whole site.

My fix:
In plugins/bbpress/bbp-admin/bbp-metaboxes.php function bbp_reply_metabox at the //topics section I increased the value in ‘numberposts’ => ’5000′

The default limit of 250 was too low for my site.

[maf2874]

My problem was similar in that I was also losing the connection between replies and their parent topics. In my case all the ‘parent’ topics were not being listed in the reply attributes box and so the connection was lost if we re-saved the comment.

The reason for this was the display limit of 250 for the topics.

My fix:
In plugins/bbpress/bbp-admin/bbp-metaboxes.php function bbp_reply_metabox at the //topics section I increased the value in ‘numberposts’ => ‘5000’

Hi all,

When email notifications are sent from our bbPress deployment, the ‘From’ address is being set to ‘wordpress@[domain]’. Looking into the WordPress core code (v3.4.2) in pluggable.php, this is done on line 336 when no ‘From’ header is passed in to the wp_mail() function. We’ve reviewed the bbPress configuration and can’t find anywhere that this can be set, have we missed a setting somewhere?

Note our site is using WordPress 3.4.2 Multisite with bbPress 2.1.2.

hey everyone,

installed a base install of bbPress today on a test site:

http://topstory.com.au/forums/

Basically all I want to do is modify the font size down, from 12px to 11px. Can someone tell me where I can do this? I’ve done a lot of frakking around with CSS files with WordPress, but can’t find the right setting in bbPress.

Cheers,

Renai

I there, Zaerl here. I’ve made a couple of plugins on the bbPress 1.1 standalone era and now it’s time for me to join the 2.1.2 bandwagon. I’ve seen that a lot of 1.1 plugins haven’t been implemented/ported to the new infrastructure and it’s a pity.

Are there some plugins that are needed? I have a couple of weeks to spare and I will be happy to help the community (for free obviously.)

Have a nice day.

P.S. I have also a 100% complete italian translation if you need it. I have translated it from scratch cause the GlotPress one is poor.

[emike09]

Resolved it. Sorry for taking your time.

Looks like the solutions is at this link: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/warning-require_oncebbp-converter-php/

> You can download an updated version of bbp-user-functions.php (4141)

Looks like I’m getting the following error:

PHP Warning: require_once(bbp-converter.php) [<a href='function.require-once'>function.require-once</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home1/mojaveun/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-user-functions.php on line 1466

I’m building a new WP site with Buddypress and BBPress as the core. I used the import function to import a vBulletin 4 installation and had it bring the users over also. All the user accounts are there, but when they try to log in, they get a 500 Internal Server error. It’s all pretty vanilla and fresh, any ideas what might be going on?

My theme (Genesis child theme no longer available) uses the reply class for styling. When editing a reply or using a search widget, it messes up the presentation of links. While I could look to try and alter my theme itself to not use the reply class anymore, it’s customized pretty heavily and the company that I purchased this particular child theme from is no longer in business for support requests or suggestions to make it compatible with bbPress. I’ve done a fair amount of work just getting it to the point most of it does look good.

bbPress applies it’s own CSS, but your theme’s CSS will always interact with that.

There is no way to load only the bbPress CSS and prevent your theme from changing with that.

The best thing to do is either modify you theme’s CSS to fit with bbPress, or copy the bbPress CSS file into your theme directory and modify it to use more specific CSS selectors so your theme CSS won’t override it.

[goddess_dix]

Thank you very much for the reply, jaredatch. Since this class is actually added to the body tag not the wrap divs on replies or whatever, I haven’t been able to locate a template that would allow me to edit it. I may well be missing something and not understanding the bbPress structure, I don’t know.

If you are running bbPress 2.1 and have the fancy editor enabled in the settings (Settings > Forums) it should definitely be showing up.

If it’s not, I’d start with temporarily changing your theme to TwentyTen/Eleven to eliminate the possibility of your theme doing something weird and causing a conflict.

[Jared Atchison]

You’ll want to remove it from the actual theme template instead of dynamically removing it via jQuery.

Copy the theme files from within bbPress to youtheme/bbpress/ and then make your edits, that way they will be saved and not wiped out on future upgrades.

[Jared Atchison]

I’m not sure I follow. If you activate bbPress using the TwentyTen theme it should be two columns. Make sure you are using the latest version of bbPress.

[Jared Atchison]

There is no way to simply just stick the entire forum in a specific page.

You can use the bbPress shortcodes (https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/) to create a page that houses a forum index, but that doesn’t stick everything in that page.

Even if you restrict a page that you create with a shortcode, bbPress generates all its own pages such as the forum/topic/reply index pages, user pages, etc.

You can certainly restrict the forum to certain memberships, but it’s going to require some custom code and a little elbow grease. It’s not something that you will be able to do by just marking a checkbox in the WishList settings.

[WivesofJannah]

I want my forms to only be visible to a certain membership level, and I am using the Member Wishlist Plugin.

Everytime I select the box asking to protect the content for a certain membership level, and then i select the one it should be available to, and then click save – NOTHING HAPPENS! It keeps returning to a default of some kind – making the it unprotected and not for any specific membership level.

I am really frustrated. Those options are working for everything else, just not the forum.

Second:

I am a newbie at all of this – I can’t seem to figure out how to put the forums into a specific PAGE so that I can include it on a customized menu.

Can some please help me out here 🙂

I am using a GENESIS framework, with child theme “landscape” – using the latest version of bbPress, and my website is http://www.wivesofjannahcommunity.com

I got the same problem. The problem only occurs when the user has not made any posts yet. WordPress throws in a 404 error since the loop fails for the user. This is a bbPress bug and should be fixed.
