You are not going to be able to do #1 unless you are comforatable making a custom bbPress theme.

#2 and #3 can be down by just making CSS tweaks in your theme’s style.css. You should be able to use firebug (or similar) to help you find the best place to put the changes.

The problem is with Easel theme. This theme very important and I like use the bbpress.

I am in furm index and there is:

Főoldal › Forums Forum Topics Posts Freshness Kérdések Várjuk a kérdéseidet! 1 1 6 perc peptid-admin

http://vu2006.admin.kovacsjanos.com/forum

This forum is only text, not link: Kérdések Várjuk a kérdéseidet!

When I am in forum, after is ok. Example: http://vu2006.admin.kovacsjanos.com/forum/forum/kerdesek

I use the bbPress 2.0.2 version. This is important.

Thank you the help.

I am also looking for this.

Hello,

I am having trouble trying to resize my forums table cells widths.

The “topics” and “posts” cells that only contain a number don’t need to be the same width as the “forum” and “freshness” cells that contain words and wrap to the next line.

When I look at the table through firebug I just see “.article th, .article td” which is part of my sytle.css and not bbpress.

Any ideas how I can make the cells widths change?

Here is an example of 1 forum I am talking about http://lifeafterlondon.com/forums-2/

Many thanks

I’ve installed bbpress from the dashboard, created forums and topics.

I am now trying to use the shortcodes to display the forum in a page

these work for showing the forum

[bbp-forum-index]

[bbp-topic-index]

[bbp-topic-form]

but any shortcodes I use to add login,

[bbp-login]

[bbp-register]

[bbp-lost-pass],

makes my top menu and footer loose all their formatting and makes them become lists. Using the login widget on a sidebar does the same thing. Here’s a screencap: http://i.imgur.com/wmDNx.png

I don’t know if it matters or could be the souce of this issue, but I am using a theme (dagda from wptitans…).

Does anybody have any clue on how to fix that? I really would like bbpress to work!

..and sorry to ask a question that might already have been answered somewhere, I’ve been looking for a solution for a few hours now, any pointer would be greatly appreciated.

Thks!

First of all sorry for bumping so often.

I’m using the suffusion v4.0.4 theme as I mentioned above. I use wordpress version 3.3.1 along with bbpress 2.0.2 and buddypress 1.5.5.

First I removed the <?php get_sidebar()?> from bbpress .php files, then in the style.css i added the proper components for the forum to be full width (i hope you get it), it was working fine.

But then I went into the sidebar.php in the suffusion theme folder (i was just trying something) and when I went to the forum page the other widgets were gone, but the new one was standing right next to the forum container .. I think this happened after I upgraded buddypress.

Then I tried to remove the bbpress plugin along with all his files, then again i re-installed bbpress, and done the same thing as before, but now all widgets are shown, not just only one. X_X

Here’s the link to the forum http://www.poker.mk/forum/forum/

Is there a way to add a latest posts list to the forum root level in bbPress 2, just the way I had it in the standalone 1.1 forum (example http://www.stazeibogaze.info/bbpress/)?

Question two – what php line of code should I use when I want to include the bbPress Reply List widget content into a page (not as a widget, but into the main body)?

[Bluealek]

I’m a bit disappointed not to be able to find a simple private messaging solution for bbPress 2 that existed through a plugin in 1.1. I don’t want to go through all the trouble of installing BuddyPress and making all the necessary theme customizations, and I don’t want to use some WordPress plugin that would require users to go to a separate page and select who they want to message from a dropdown list. I need just a simple PM link in the forum interface. Is it so complicated to add the option?

[kim_2012]

Hi there,

Just installed the bbpress plugin. I want to create seperate forums for various class groups, so I’m interested in creating groups of users. I have searched all over under ‘users’ and ‘registration’ and haven’t found anything that helps me understand how this works (no previous experience in setting up a forum!).

Do ppl have to register as users on my wp site to be a user on the forum, and if so how do they do that? And how does it integrate into the forum page?

Also, I was reading on the bbpress site about ‘wp integration’ on the settings page but can’t see anything like that at all. I’m using current version of wp – 3.3.1.

thanks for any help

Kim

Thanks for posting this- bbpress really needs some stronger documentation! The install went smoothly, but I had trouble just setting up the basics.

[GHC_33]

– Installing 2.1-r3822 into a current child-theme –

I couldn’t find any documentation on this.

Im currently using using a child theme and want to add BBPress. What are the instructions for this.

What files need to be copied where?

[Jared Atchison]

Currently there is no plugin that handles this (at the moment) for bbPress 2.x.

Anyone can write a plugin and contribute it to the WordPress.org plugin repo.

[wout_m]

I am also looking for this, because my users are complaining this is missing, since I converted my forum from the BBPress standalone version to the BBP2.0 WordPress plugin. Has any anybody an idea how to fix it?

[freie-bildung]

Okay….but where can i find the code? In which file? and exactly what to look I do? realized under the “tags” I find nothing…

thank you very much

[Jared Atchison]

As I said we don’t have any copy and paste code to do this at the moment.

You’ll need to do some digging around in the bbPress theme and remove the tag functions. Another alternative would be to hide them with CSS but that is not ideal at all.

[Jared Atchison]

What version of bbPress are you using?

[Jared Atchison]

There is no need to bump your thread 3 times in 24 hours, thats not going to help get a reply any faster.

First thing is this would be a better question to ask you theme author.

Secondly, you didn’t provide near enough information. Telling us it’s broke doesn’t give us enough info.

What theme are you using? What version of bbPress are you using? What is the URL of the site? Do you have a screenshot? What code did you use to remove the sidebar?

I could go on with the details but you get the point.

[MaTaX91]

okay so I just found this little bug that when I change the slug settings under settings > forum to something that does not match the page slug I can see the forums but it looks like this…

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21413580/bbpress_error.png

But it looks like this when I make the slugs match, which is what it’s supposed to look like. However you can see that now there are no forums at all

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21413580/bbpress_correct_layout.png

[MaTaX91]

the user was given the forum moderator role that was created when I activated bbpress, and I have tried giving them the standard moderator role and still no luck with being able to create forums

Hi I’m using bbpress within a Childtheme.

What I did was:

1. add_theme_support( ‘bbpress’ ); in my functions.php

2. put all template files from the plugin into my child theme folder

3. added all bbpress.css in my child theme css

now everything works well from scratch. just one problem.

the table for the replies doesnt look nice.

the column with td or th with .bbp-reply-author should be 120px as i figured it out from the stylesheet. the second column should be the rest to add it up until 100%.

this works for the topic post but not for the replies. the replies column is only about 100px wide and doesnt fill up the row to the needed 100%.

my theme css for tables include only the following:

table { width:auto; border-collapse:collapse; margin-bottom:1.5em; border-top:1px #888 solid; border-bottom:1px #888 solid }

table caption { text-transform: uppercase }

table.full, .widget_calendar table { width:100% }

table.fixed { table-layout:fixed }

th,td { padding:0.5em }

thead th { color:#000; border-bottom:1px #800 solid }

tbody th { background:#e0e0e0; color:#333 }

tbody th[scope=”row”], tbody th.sub { background:#f0f0f0 }

tbody th { border-bottom:1px solid #fff; text-align:left }

tbody td { border-bottom:1px solid #eee }

tbody tr:hover th[scope=”row”],

tbody tr:hover tbody th.sub { background:#f0e8e8 }

tbody tr:hover td { background:#fff8f8 }

So no more widths included. Do you know how i can figure out where the problem is?

I tried to specify the column widths with <colgroup><col width=”25%” /><col width=”75%” /></colgroup> in the loop-replies.php file.

Second i tried to style the widths of td and th cells with .bbp-reply-author and .bbp-reply-content classes.

both didnt actually work. would be very glad to get any input you might have.

[MaTaX91]

having this same problem with 2.1 and refreshing the permalinks does not help

[MaTaX91]

well I use buddypress so I have a bbpress folder in my theme with some adjusted files in it already, by the way I am on 2.1

I’m looking for towards how might I achieve this? I saw the template tag but didn’t know if there was a way to tell php to grab the sub-forums of a specific one or not, looking for some guidance on that

[charliedrake]

class foomanchu {

function __construct() {

add_action( ‘bb_hook’, array( $this, ‘callback_function’ ) );

}

function callback_function() {

$result = ‘foomanchu’;

return $result;

}

}

The bbPress Docs state that bbPress uses the exact same Plugin API as WordPress, yet the above would work in WordPress, but silently fail in bbPress.

any light in this would be much appreciated.

Hi at all

sorry my english is not very good;-)

where can I find the code (I think he is in the themes folder) to delete the tags?

thank you very much!
