Please do add a proper search function here on bbPress.org!
Currently it’s a pain in the ass to find older topics that are not tagged or just to find certain replies. The topic list and tag cloud are nice but really not enough!
Example: I am regularly searching for “german” here to find users searching for translations and help. It’s so difficult currently to find older stuff that is about 4 weeks old.
So, please come on and add a nice search box in the sidebar or header here with full text search!
THANKS!

@HansRuedi Keller:
These strings are from the template files for bbPress that this theme as bundled – so you need to contact the theme author that he updates his stuff – obviously he has not updated to 2.1+ compatibility yet.
You can also update this yourself:
1st alternative: delete the packaged bbPress template files from the theme and use bbPress “Theme Compat” (in bbPress settings)
2nd alternative: edit the template files yourself, use the theme’s textdomain for all strings and make your own translations/language files then.
This should work then.
@netweb:
User @HansRuedi Keller is already aware of this using/installing stuff ๐
Thanks, Dave ๐
Instructions for Installing bbPress in your language are now on the codex.

I installed 2.1 and I’m trying to preserve as many customizations (style and pages) from my older version BBpress forum. But this looks like an entirely new scheme? I can see it wants to try to inherit my WordPress style, but I want it to look like the older BBpress style that I created. Is this possible or do I have to recreate the wheel?
Deeply frustrating and terribly little documentation, any help appreciated.
Hey all,
I had a previous post where i logged a user into bbpress by passing credentials from our site in the url. that worked fine but we were not using bbpress embedded in wordpress at the time.
Now we have changed the configuration by setting up a full WP site with bbpress as a plugin.
the goal is still the same: Send a user to our bbpress forum and automatically log them in.
We are using a single forum so i have made changes to
bbpress\bbp-theme-compat\bbpress\content-single-forum.php
Currently the user is logged in correctly. However when any topic link is pressed the “You must log in….” message is shown. Apparently is_user_logged_in returns false.
Any help on how to make the logged in user persist to more than the first page would be greatly appreciated.
We are using bbpress 2.1.2 and wp 3.4.1
My code for logging in a user is:
<br />
$loginCreds = array();<br />
$loginCreds['user_login'] = $user_login;<br />
$loginCreds['user_password'] = $_GET['password'] ;<br />
$loginCreds['remember'] = true ;<br />
$user = wp_signon( $loginCreds, false );<br />
if ( is_wp_error($user) ){<br />
echo $user->get_error_message();<br />
echo $_GET['password'] ;<br />
} else {<br />
$user_id = $user->ID;<br />
wp_set_current_user($user_id);<br />
wp_set_auth_cookie($user_id, true);<br />
}
Hello
I’m trying to transform the bbpress 1.1 in a php framework for web.
I would like to know how to get all Plugins bbpress 1.1 for dowload, is in zip format or equivalent.
thankyou
I am using wordpress 3.4.1
I installed bbpress and the bbpress menu shortcuts plugin, then deactivated them again. I am now left with a non-functional and only partialy rendered widgets.php

As you can see, the page stops during rendering information about the bbPress:Topic Views widget.
How can I fix this? Can I remove these widgets manually? Should they not have been removed when I deactivated bbpress?
Thanks.
With the current way of doing things in bbPress, you can implement such a feature with a bit of theme hackery, so you’re essentially looking for someone to develop a standized theme for this sort of layout?
I have just make a fresh install of wordpress 3.4.1 + buddypress 1.6.1 + bbpress 2.1.2 โ multisite using subdomains.
Same problem. Same conflict.

Hi, I can help you with this. I am doing the same and needed to figure it out as well. Hopefully they’ll add this in updated versions… Seems like a basic feature that can add awesome visual option via CSS. Anyways, I will assume you know a bit of CSS. For the PHP, I recommend that you create a folder “bbpress” inside your WP theme folder, i.e. wp-content/themes/yourtheme/bbpress Then go to /plugins/bbpress/bbp-theme-compat/bbpress and copy/paste the file “loop-single-reply.php” to your newly created bbpress folder from above. What this does is now make bbPress use that file instead of the default one. Now you can make changes to it and not worry about updates to bbPress overwriting your changes. On line ~ 30, you’ll see an opening DIV with id=”post-*some php”…
On the next line, enter this:
$reply_id = bbp_get_reply_id( $reply_id );
$abc_role = bbp_get_user_display_role( bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id ) );
Then the next line that’s already there should be:
div class="bbp-reply-author"
Turn it into this:
div class="bbp-reply-author ?php echo $abc_role ?>"
Add the bracket < before the first ?php in that above statment… I dont know why its not letting me show it.
And there you have it. The CSS class name will now contain the verbatim user role… This means that "Key Master" will actually be in the class.. No problem, just use:
div.Key { color: #abc }
to target the admin. Sure, “Master” will be in there but, but it’ll be taken as 2 different classes, “Key” and “Master”. With additional pvp, you could turn it into “keymaster” but its not necessary for 99.9% of applications and would just run more PHP. I’m literally doing this right now, so i havent checked other template files, but it’s the same thing.. So for instance, if you want to change the css in the index for only admins, to have lets say a special color link, find the template file that displays the index, add that same snippet in, and it will work the same. have fun. ๐
Woman, actually.
What theme are you using – the twentyten that comes with bbpress? If so, I would put it in css/bbpress.css.
“2. Registered users canโt write replyโs or new topics, the following message appears: โYou cannot create new topics at this time.โ
Same problem for me too (just item nยบ2), but all my sub-blogs are in subdomains. I tried to activate/deactivate all plugins, and I found the conflict is with BuddyPress.

Hi, please forgive me if I’m being stupid. I’m a bbpress newbie and just set up my first forum.
All is looking good. Except when I log out it takes me to the default wordpress login page. Is this default behaviour?
It’s a commercial site so I don’t want users to see the wordpress login at all if possible. Can I have it redirect to a page when logging out? e.g. back to the page they came from, or the site/forum home page?
Many thanks for any help!
Pls help pls look on http://www.ermito.eu/spolem/
I’m did update and all layout destroyed
I’m using last version bbpress and wordpress

Plllsss help
Hy. I DO NOT want to use child theme! i hate it.
I need to do a little modify to the topic title. Example show it on “bold” style instead of “not bold” style. Yeah i know… when update version i need to repet the css modify or lost it so is better to use child theme… NO THANKS.
SO… on suorce code of my bbpress (plugin) page i found “<a class="bbp-forum-title" ……"
GOOD bbp-forum-title is "my man" … the question is WHERE (DEVIL) I FOUN IT?????? IN which
(cursed) CSS file???
Thank you.
PS. BuddyPress 1.6.1 + WordPress 3.4.1 + bbpress (plugin) 2.1.2
I can either get the theme/wordpress to allow my page to take precedence, or change the bbpress breadcrumbs ‘root’ to point to my page instead of the bbpress base page.
Any idea’s how I can do that? Many thanks!
Sorry, work swallowed my soul (again < .<)
Alright, the problem is that the id of the primary container (the main content) is "container" on bbpress, and "primary" on your page.
Take a backup of all the files, change to in the forum pages. In the forum CSS, replace #container with #primary
That ought to do it, and good luck.
I’m looking for this too. I found a shortcode that do this, but I’m not sure if it’s the same of this forum. The shortcode is: [bbp-topic-index]
I have Genesis theme, and i used the Genesis tweak for better integration into the theme. Now I want to add a navigation bar just like this install of bbpress where i could show the links, register etc… but cannot get it done. I need help..
I am using the Twenty Ten theme (bbpress theme)

I have the same problem. The forums base slug is ‘forums’ as default and so is my page, but my custom WP page is not taking precedence. The bbpress one is, which is causing problems as I can’t set page options, sidebar etc etc. Any idea’s?
I am having same problem and the link @terence.milbourn shared now throws 404 Error. Any help please ?
