After looking at bbPress a bit I am wondering why Topics are not organized under a Forum?
Sure, I’m aware that there are super sticky topics, but apart from that one case will a Topic not always exist under just one forum?
In which case one really wouldn’t need the Forum and Topic categorization…
I’m sure there’s a good reason for why it’s been done this way… just can’t see it at the moment 😉
Found it 🙂
On the https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/ page the shortcodes for this are listed towards the bottom 🙂
The index page for bbPress translations is here:-
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin
If you can contribute translations that would be great 🙂
Hello,
Where does the bbPress breadcrumb get the text bits from?
The first part on my site looks like the title of my home page, and it is rather long!
Any way of changing the text without changing the home page?
Or removing the first part of the breadcrumb?
Or removing the breadcrumb all together?
Thanks!
Hello,
Thanks for helping me logging in to bbPress.org – had to ask via twitter…
You might want to:
- change the Register page to tell people to use their WordPress.org credentials and register there if needed.
- remove the Lost Password page
- fix the contact us link in your footer as it doesn’t work 🙂
Thanks!
Great work!! Is there a recent translation for Arabic version WP?
Looks good, feels snappier too for some reason…
Might want to make your, Create New Topic link into a more prominent button. I’m probably a retard, but I couldn’t find, just wasn’t seeing it on the page! Ended up having to type in the URL for the new topic page manually… 🙂
Not that I really wanted to be dramatic with my thread topic…
Updated to 2.1 today and all that ajax functions in my activity stream stopped working (tabs, load more, filters, etc).
I thought it might be my theme at first, but I switched to BP default and the problem was still there. I then rolled BBPress back to v2.0.3 and the problem vanished. Back in my theme with 2.0.3 and all is okay.
Anything special about the new BP integration that might mess up the activity stream? Has anyone else had this problem? Any thoughts on this?
Very nice! Preview rocks as well, great job guys!
It’s kinda funny that I actually prefer markdown over TinyMCE. Think that is a habit I got from github 😛
Ok – it seems to be working as expected now, with a clean refresh. The only difference is that I followed your instructions, Lynq, and not those peppered around this site. The following links say to copy the contents of the bbp-twentyten folder to the theme folder:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-2-0-theme-compatibility/
https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/
That doesn’t work for me, however. Copying the contents of the bbp-theme-compat folder did work.
Is this simply a documentation problem that needs to be fixed?
Thank you both for the help and attention!
Hello,
I tried to use the bbpress rate post plugin on WordPress 3.4.1, bbpress 2.0.3, BuddyPress 1.5.6 and the plugin v. 1.6.6. In the group forums it works very well, but in the site-wide forums there is nothing, so I thought I will modify and make it to work in bbpress…
I opened the files (bb-rate-forum-posts.php – the main file) looked at the hooks and tried to find the similar hooks for bbpress, but unsuccessfully for now. I tried few changes but always get blank screen errors.
Can anyone help me, with code, or just hints? Or some other plugin recommendation?
Thanks in advance.
Looks awesome, congrats guys!
hi,
i’ve just installed bbpress 2.1 on a test site and am loving it. great job and many thanks to all, especially (of course) jjj.
so far the new theme compatibility seems to be working just fine (and MUCH easier to set up) with my simple twentyten child theme.
however, there are very weird problems with the mobile theme from the wptouch pro plugin (for example, with wptouch pro switched on, the blog is displaying forum topic titles without any blog or forum content). what makes this especially weird is that i did have wptouch pro working with bbpress 2.0.
i’ve asked for help on the bravenewcode support forum, but they don’t offer official support for wptouch with bbpress (although, as per usual, emilio is willing to a look)…. so i thought i’d ask here too as wptouch mobile theme plugin might be something of interest to bbpress users and some of you may have a suggestion.
thanks for any ideas to try…;
This is how I did it:
1) get your fresh install sorted with a new copy of bbpress.
2) take the contents inside of /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-theme-compat and copy it to the root of your theme, for example: /wp-content/themes/RainCloud/
This is what worked for me and then I could edit the bbpress.css file inside my RainCloud theme and it worked perfectly straight away.
If this doesn’t work I would guess some kind of plugin or theme conflict!
Ok. I’m going to nuke the site and try a fresh install. Can somebody give me accurate concise directions for what to do after I have installed and activated my child theme (without bbpress), to get the bbpress theme to an editable state outside of the plugins folder? Altering my CSS files in the child theme directory always leads to them being superseded at the moment, and I followed the directions I found here.
Hmm,
It looks as though most of the styles are coming from
/blog-wp-content/themes/bbpress-2012/style.css
It is also loading
/blog-wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-theme-compat/css/bbpress.css?ver=2.1
But, and this is the difference I think with bbpress.org and your site:
https://bbpress.org/blog-wp-content/themes/bbpress-2012/bbpress.css – doesn’t exist, so I am guessing it is getting all of the styles from style.css but because bbpress.css doesn’t exist it defaults back to the plugins bbpress.css
Just to make sure (and after taking a backup) I deleted my bbpress plugin folder.
re-downloaded it and re uploaded it.
So using my current theme and installing a fresh copy of bbpress my bbpress.css file loads from within my theme folder.
Your theme doesn’t happen to hard code a css path or anything does it? It could be a plugin loading in the css file or something, but not too sure apart from that, sorry!
P.s. I also used the bbpress-functions.php file from bbp-theme-compat
Oh, your looking at a different site lol, I haven’t updated that for a while.
I was looking at the new one I am currently working on: http://teamoverpowered.com/
Yea that one comes from the bbpress plugins folder.
In the screenshot you can’t see it (the path appears as a tooltip that disappears when I take a screenshot). If you do it in Firefox and hover over where it says bbpress.css, you’ll see the path to the plugins folder.

that appears to come from the plugins default folder and not from your RainCloud theme.
I don’t see where it says it’s being loaded from at all. It could be bbpress.css located in your current theme.
Never ever modify or delete the files in the /plugins/bbpress folder, unless you’re fixing a bug and putting a patch up on trac. 🙂
Happy you were able to get it sorted! bbPress does some weird things with the login screen, and I’m going to look at making it behave better in 2.2.
