Sure thing.
The boxes are CSS and our own design but you can use the Vote It Up plugin for votes, although it hasn’t been updated in ages.
You’ll need to customise and theme it. BTW, we are using BBPress 2.0.2 and not the latest but it should work.
Good Luck…
Hey Roni!
Awesome work. Can you please guide me regarding the insertion of Vote/Replies Boxes.
Are these Plugins ?

Same here. My subscribers cannot edit their own posts. Where do one start looking? Is it bbpress-specific och WP?
We now have user badges on the site.
Coming soon is BBPress analytics plugin, probably for piwik.
I get the following error when installing the bbPress plugin for site-wide forums under BuddyPress.
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 616352 bytes) in /home/birthpho/public_html/web/wp-admin/includes/admin.php on line 29
What could be the cause of this? I have plenty of hosting space available, does this require memory elsewhere?
Hi
I just installed bbpress on our wordpress site, but the users cannot edit their own topics (no edit menu in the bar)
I checked then the permissions with the plugin “User Role Editor” but I saw nothing weird in it.
We tried to install another WordPress/bbpress on another machine: same issue !
Thanks for your help !!
I have also been getting reports of this happening:
http://www.inklestudios.com/forums/topic/unable-to-edit-my-own-profile
Oddly enough though, when I created a test account, it worked fine.
Any thoughts? Love bbpress by the way! Just looking forward to getting the teething problems out of the way 🙂
Thanks for your reply. Do I presume from this that the error message:Fatal error: Class ‘BBP_Theme_Compat’ is a BuddyPress error? So I will need to find help with BuddyPress to fix this
(I updated 9 plugins all at once & this included bbPress & BuddyPress latest versions-so it would seem likely the problem is with the BuddyPress plugin update).

Hey bbpress community, I’m excited to say I launched my new website yesterday, its running the 2.1.2 plugin version of WordPress, but I’ve modified its templates pretty heavily, and added some custom functions. You can check it out at: http://tamrielfoundry.com Some cool features of my bbpress are:
- Dropdown forum index in navigation menu
- User profile integration with custom profile pages
- Forum quotes
- User signatures for forum posts and comments
I’ve got plans for a bunch more features I’d like to build in, but I’m just happy the site is live for now. Thanks for all the hard work developing this awesome forum plugin. Let me know what you think of the site!

Just tried again. Latest WP installation, “Twenty ten” theme with bbPress and Akismet plugins only and still getting this.
What function may cause this? Will try to find by myself.
“The WordPress page will always win”? The bbPress settings’ “Forum base” always overrides a page in WordPress by the same slug for me. This has ALWAYS been a problem for me, on any WordPress installation. I use the Origin theme currently, if that helps any…
I would try that if I knew how to change where the root link in the breadcrumbs (the root link says “Forums”) goes to, but I don’t know PHP well enough. I hope there’s something I can add to my functions.php to change where the root link goes to…
The first thing you said, as the fix to the problem, is correct. I’ve been mucking around with PHP files for a week. I’ve studied loop-forums.php, which seems to be the page I need to change, and loop-single-forum, which seems to be the page I’m trying to replicate the style of, but no matter what I try, I don’t know PHP well enough to find the fix. I use the default bbPress theme.
I still don’t understand. Just make them the same slug? The WordPress page will always win.
bbPress has always shifted the emphasis of the forums towards the topics and content. Traditional forums tend to focus on content categorization, the forum hierarchy, and what content lives where.
Because of this, the transition from some-other-forums to bbPress is sometimes met with the wish that it looked and worked like what you’re used to. A few people have mentioned wanting something like this in bbPress core, and while I think there’s merit to the idea, I don’t see it as a priority above the other things bbPress needs (user management, BuddyPress integration, etc…)
If you’d like to help build this enhancement, chime in here. I’d love to have someone that wants this in core to take it on, while I work on other priorities for 2.2. I’ll gladly review patches and help you all build this, but you’ll want to get something up and working independently to start.
Any takers?
I want the option for it to go to a page of my choosing. People often don’t like the default forums-archive page (which ends up being the root/home page), so they create a WordPress page with bbPress shortcodes in it to be the forums’ home page. The problem is, when they do that, the breadcrumbs root link, which says “forums”, doesn’t go to that page. it goes to the archive page, or forums-index– which is the page they were trying to avoid.

the breadcrumbs still link to the forums-index page
I don’t understand. Where do you want your “Forums” link to go, other than your forums?
In the receiving end, bumping topics here is really annoying, so I’d recommend not doing it. 🙂 These forums don’t move quickly enough to necessitate it, and we’re all volunteers that will help you whenever we have the opportunity to do so. A bump, even with friendly intentions, just ends up making us feel bad because we took a few days off, and making us look like we’re lazy to everyone else.
Also, cryptidwolf is incorrect, and offers nothing to this conversation that helps you with your issue(s) of which it seems like there are 2; the first being you can’t get the forum index sorted, and that once you do, you want it to look differently than the default templates look.
The way I suggest fixing it, is to create your own custom page template with the look and feel that you want your index to have. It’s no different than a WordPress theme; if you want it to be different than it is, you sometimes have to do it yourself.
The forum/category sections are a layout that a few people are working on, and certainly could be a bbPress core feature. Since bbPress has always been topic and content focused, the forum layout isn’t something that gets a lot of attention. Sorting out the forum/category hierarchy and layout is actually a pretty complex set of loops to automate, as it involves checking depth and walking a tree of forums that could potentially be outside of the current scope.
I haven’t bothered looking too far into it since it’s something that will take concentrated time and effort, and there are other things bbPress needs before that becomes the top priority to put time towards. If you, or anyone else wants to put the time in because it’s important to you, I’d happily review and commit a patch to make sure it’s included in future versions.
I know this isn’t the best set of answers you were looking for, but it’s all I have for now.
Shouldn’t be happening with Twenty Ten. Basically, this is a nonce check error. Nonces are used through out bbPress to make sure you’re actually invoking actions on your own request, and that someone hasn’t duped you into doing something you didn’t want to do.
This is the first I’ve heard of this, so some plugin or theme is really interfering with things. bbpress.org is always running the latest build, so if it’s not broken here, it’s not broken in core.
hey I got a some problem. I’m using Rating-Widget Plugin n I can set up for topics in forum at my dashboard but it doesn’t work.
If I fix it, I will post here later.
Can I say “HAHAHAHA”? I racked my brains out last night.
Here’s the best solution. BBRESS Just doesn’t like you theme, plain and simple.
Tried 23 themes before I found out there’s special themes for BBpress that you have to use,
other themes won’t work.
I was having the same exact problem you where
That’s exactly what I’m looking for. I found one web site http://kingscast.net/forums/topic.php?id=5 It seems like to use social it which isn’t available now. https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/social-it/
So I tried to add sexybookmark into my website like social it but I’m still struggling insert sexybookmark to topic.
Is there anybody to solve this?
Been 24 hours again. Bump
I see that a lot of people have an issue with this in some form or another, but I’ve only seen one fix– a non-explained hard-coding. It’s unfair to everyone.
I want to be able to change loop-forums.php to look exactly like loop-single-forum.php. That means a new table for every category, a Freshness (author name and avatar, as well as latest post time) for every parent forum inside a category, and the displaying of “content” below the forum title, if we have content on the forum edit page (people usually use that for a description of that particular forum).
Changing the CSS to make each forum have its own line is easy. The REST of the things you have to do to make the forums root, or forums index, look like a single-forum page, is hard.
This is a much-needed tweak. Pretty much everyone would benefit from it. I will keep bumping this as long as I need.
I do want to say that I love bbPress though. I’m not giving up on it in the foreseeable future.
While creating new topics from list of topics I am getting this error (red outlined box):”ERROR: Are you sure you wanted to do that?”and no topic is added. I am able to add topics through Dashboard/Topics interface (admin console) WordPress: Version 3.4.1bbPress: Version 2.1.2 I am using custom theme but tried with default “twenty ten” theme. Result is the same – no topic is created and error is shown. Have no idea where it comes from. I suspect this started happening after WP 3.4.1 installation. Any ideas?
