I have come across an example of a filter to change the bread crumb separators but I can’t seem to get it to work:

add_filter( 'breadcrumb_trail_args', 'my_breadcrumb_trail_args' );

function my_breadcrumb_trail_args( $args ) {

$args = ‘ → ‘;

return $args;

}

What I want to achieve:

I’ve installed bbPress as a plugin for WordPress. I want to make a few simple changes to the bbPress bread crumb function:

bbp_breadcrumb();

I need the bread crumb separator to be double right arrows rather than the default single arrow:

I want to replace > with ».

I also want to add “You are here:”

Why I need this:

I need to match the styling and position the Yoast Breadcrumbs. Yoast Breadcrumbs is installed as a plugin for WordPress. It breaks on bbPress pages.

What I’ve tried:

Using conditions and CSS, I disabled the Yoast bread crumbs on bbPress pages. I also disabled the default bbPress bread crumbs but called it just beneath my primary navigation. Effectively, I’ve “moved” the bbPress bread crumbs.

To change the bread crumb separator I’ve researched JavaScript and jQuery string replacements but I’ve been advised that this is “hacky”.

My question:

What’s the conventional way of changing the output of bbPress function?

I can provide additional JavaScript, PHP and CSS code if required.

Live demo:

These two live examples highlights the two types of bread crumbs:

mjpg, i just checked and it looks like i’m seeing the same thing you are (with wp 3.21, bbpress 2.1, buddypress 1.5): forum participant user is not able to access either hidden and private forums (although forum moderator works fine).

hmmm…. is this actually working (forum participants can access hidden forums?) for everyone else/

[eraleks]

Couldn’t find the file Im using the default theme that comes along with the plug-in. Do you by any chance know what it is called?

Sorry about the hassle but im kind of noob on coding!

The decision was made to wait until the bbpress 2.0 was released before spending a lot of time documenting everything. Not much time has passed since 2.0 was released so there hasn’t been much time dedicated to documenting everything. If you would like to speed up the process feel free to help document.

[Andre]

Your bbPress theme css if they are separate.

I really see a good future for bbPress but I have to say, is really a lack of documentation, too poor. It avoids an adequate documentation. Although attempts to adapt to the blog template does not have a good explanation to create a childtheme, something too important to correct the mistakes css well. I will keep trying to understand bbpress but for now although it has good prospects, is disappointed right now.

Hi all, I have installed bbpress as a plugin. I am just wondering does the login, register and search all have to be widgets to be seen. I do not want widgets in the sidebar and want a simple full page width forum. But it seems if I do this I have no login area? Any ideas on this. Example here: http://community.freshbooks.com/forums/

[mjpg]

WordPress 3.2.1; bbPress 2.0; GD bbPress Attachments 1.2.1

I have installed bbPress OK and have a single forum with a few topics/replies as a test.

The forum is for members only and so I set it to ‘private’ in Forum attributes > visibility.

I then created a member ‘Fred Smith’ and set them as a ‘Forum Participant’ but when I log in as them, I get an error “Oh bother! No forums were found here!”.

If I set them to ‘Forum Moderator’ they can see the forum and topics, but then they also have moderator privilages displayed, which is not wanted.

Is this a bug, or am I not understanding ‘private’ correctly?

Thanks for any help.

Hey guys. I just integrated my WP site to BBPress. Right now I am having some problems with the default “forums” page that was created. The right sidebar is not displaying on that page, but when you go to the topics you can see it. Do you know how to fix this issue? Sorry I am really a beginner in BBPress.

Thanks in advance!

Version 0.1 of my plugin is now available for download on wordpress.org. Find it here if you want to help test it: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-bbcode/

[DeadBrokeBeats]

Really helpful posts if you dig, ive been looking into getting bbpress up and running on my website, almost ready to lauch it too..

[eraleks]

Yeah, bbPress breadcrumbs use some really tricky logic.

Regular breadcrumb scripts are not going to work throughout bbPress as is. There really isn’t a way of that I personally know on how to fix this issue.

@Erlend

Most of your questions are pretty unique and specific. Frankly many of the questions you are asking about is why Adam has custom services available.

I also sent you a twitter message with my skype info, however Adam is definitely the person to talk to.

I am confident that he can accomplish exactly what you are after, but it would require direct contact and most probably custom services.

*What is a newline problem? (ur question over there, can’t figure it out lol)

[Erlend]

I guess I can compile my questions into an e-mail later, but wouldn’t you rather answer them in public so you don’t have to answer the same questions repeatedly? I greatly appreciate you taking the time to talk to me, but you won’t be able to build a community on your site if you prefer 1-on-1s.

Check top of dark section of bottom of pages..

Example page breadcrumb works normally:

Forums have problem:

I am using wordpress seo plugin with this code for breadcrumbs:

<?php if ( function_exists('yoast_breadcrumb') ) {

yoast_breadcrumb('<div id="breadcrumbs"><p>','</p></div>');

} ?>

[AWJunkies]

We are definitely here. I stated my direct contact info earlier in thread. You have a lot of questions and posts so be easier to address them all at once through a messanger. You are correct about the bbpress 1x and not needing the plugin after convert to convert passwords. That is for all other platforms.

Please contact me directly at:

skype: AWJunkies

AIM: AWJunkies

YAHOO: AWJunkies

Email: aellis@awjunkies.com

The phpbb is not currently complete as the file says I should have it done next week if nobody has tried to do the converter file yet. I also will be adding and editing a few things for speed.

[Erlend]

It’s been about a week since we heard from you guys. I tried to get some discussions going on your own site, but it’s completely silent there.

[Andre]

The instruction on if, where, and what sized picture is displayed in going to be someplace in your theme’s CSS file. Exactly where will depend on your theme.

[eraleks]

I really need some help with this so if there is someone with any ideas how to fix this. Please let me know!

[Steveorevo]

I’ve found that you have to go to Settings -> Forums, “Save Changes” anytime you mess with permalinks. Not sure if private/public could be causing this too.

[kevinvaughn]

WordPress is sending email notifications just fine, it is only bbPress notifications that are not…

[OAEErra]

Actually, I need to reopen this.

I can edit the first post of threads, but can’t edit the replies using the edit button on the post.

I have tried to change the permalink structure then back again to reset it but it doesn’t work.

I also posted in this thread:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/editing-topics-and-replies-in-bbpress-20

Which seems to have a possible solution but im nonethewiser as to where the code coes that is mentioned.
