I experimented making a bbp-clockstone child theme in wp-content/plugins/bbpress/themes/bbp-themes and that seems to somewhat work. Except I notice my pages are still pulling css from:

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/themes/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/css/bbpress.css

I should be pulling CSS from:

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/themes/bbp-themes/bbp-clockstone/css/bbpress.css

[enderandrew]

Can I move the css file somewhere in my theme so that I don’t lose css changes when I update the plugin?

My site uses a dark background with white text, so I have white on white text with your toolbar.

How can I have the forums list from the main page (bbpress plugin). Example, right now it is the catergory, then forums:

category

– forum, forum, forum , forum, etc.

category

– forum, forum, etc

I want:

category

– forum

– forum

– forum

category

– forum

– etc.

Thanks in advance

I’m using a custom theme (Clockstone) that is based on dark colors. The default twentyten theme doesn’t work for me.

So I copied all the single-*, archive-*, page-* files, as well as the bbpress, css and js files into the root of my theme.

So I have wp-content/themes/Clockstone/single-forum.php as an example

I editted the css file to fit my color scheme. But once I add:

add_theme_support( ‘bbpress’ );

to my functions.php then bbpress breaks completely, and all my forum links return 404 errors. If I remove that line, then the urls and forums work, but with the default theme.

I’m using the latest trunk as of today. Any suggestions?

Other than Attachments and Post Toolbar, what bbPress plugins are compatible with bbPress 2.0?

[enderandrew]

BuddyPress 1.5 asks if you’d like to point to an existing stand-alone bbPress install. Should I point it at the bbPress 2.0 install, or disable forums via BuddyPress as suggested above?

And I’m assuming you’d want to turn on the BuddyPress component of: “Site Tracking: Make BuddyPress aware of new posts and new comments from your site.”

bbPress posts are basically WordPress posts (using custom post types). I’m assuming this Site Tracking feature is how bbPress posts show up in the BuddyPress activity stream.

You’ll want to contact WangGuard’s plugin author here:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wangguard/

Seems the problem is unrelated to bbPress. There are several other users with issues too.

There are existing plugins in place to help connect the two separate installations together if you want to use bbPress 1.x. Overall, you will probably have much better luck and a better experience using bbPress 2.0.

Thanks for the report. See #1619 for details and fix.

[Mon Aug 29 22:41:45 2011] [error] [client x.x.x.x] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_is_active() in /var/www/x/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-extend-buddypress.php on line 172

The page won’t load(completely blank). I get that when I try to activate the buddyPress plugin, using the bbPress 2.0 and the buddyPress 1.5, both from the SVN repository.

This is due to one of the latest changes because it did work a few days ago.

By the way, any idea when are this plugins going to be released as stable? I am looking forward to using BuddyPress 1.5 in my web site(http://www.opes.es/) where I am already using bbPress 2.0.

Thank you.

I wasn’t so concerned about fixing it as I was about getting access to to the general settings again.

here’s the fix on this website I found, http://tadej.eu/wordpress-timezone-exception-fix-hack

The first 5 forums are displayed on my forums page, but if I add another one, it is not listed, even though it exists and it can be accessed. (I am using bbPress as plugin in WP)

How do I overcome this limit?

[honustudios]

I’m running the latest dev version of the plugin, version 3476, in hopes that it would have solved my issue, but no luck.

I was getting the error mentioned in this thread http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/tags-archives-page-are-broken-in-bbp-20-rc2-and-rc3#post-90903

I downloaded the branch code after reading the above issue and it’s resolution. Then, I started getting the WordPress “Hands off, partner!” error which is a 500 Internal Server error in Firebug.

Any ideas about what could be causing the page to not display correctly?

Thanks so much for your help and the great plugin.

Hi folks,

Always one to make things twice as hard as they need be, I started out designing a theme for the standalone product and I’d now like to change gears and port it to the plugin version.

Essentially, I didn’t think I’d use WordPress for my main site… but I’ve since come to change my mind. Now, I’ve got a nice custom theme for both my WordPress installation and a nice theme for my bbPress installation.

At this point, I can’t decide if I’d be best to keep them separated and use the integration options or to sit and re-theme everything with the plugin version. If I were to continue to use the standalone, is it possible to create widgets similar to the “recent topics” and others created by the plugin version? And subsequently, is there a way to use shortcodes for embedding bbPress into WordPress pages? heh

Sorry for the novel…

[miak]

I just installed the bbpress plugin for WordPress and also the BuddyPress plugin. When i create a new forum through bbpress the permalinks are coming out to be website.com/forums/forum/forumname

what could be causing this?

[Jose Conti]

Hi,

Only works with bbPress 2.0

Regards

[wordpress Spec]

I use this conde in bb-config.php for my integration with wordpress 2.9.2

if ( !defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) & !defined( ‘XMLRPC_REQUEST’ )) {

define( ‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false );

//

// You will need to get the ABSOLUTE path to this file |

// |/

require_once( $_SERVER[“DOCUMENT_ROOT”].’/wp-load.php’ );

header( “HTTP/1.1 200 OK” );

header( “Status: 200 All rosy” );

}

/**

now I upadated wordpress to 3.2.1 but I get an error, my forum home not load, the error log is blank, but if I comment the above code it work.

I think that the problem is incompatible with that version

As suggested by InterMike I set up a new fresh combo of both with clean databses on localhost via XAMPP to identify the problem! Guess what? I am still stuck!

bbPress related stuff won’t show in buddypress activity stream.

So either me is an idiot or I have some problems in understanding the setup for getting it to work. It’s stated that this should work since bbPress RC2 but didn’t work for me til now.

Here’s my setup again:

Install WP 3.2.1

Install bbPress RC2

Install BuddyPress 1.5 Beta2

Disable Discussion Forums in BuddyPress on Installation Wizard

Tried so many things and switched installation orders of bbPress / BuddyPress but that still won’t work. So anyone of the people having the bbPress related stuff working / showing in BuddyPress activitiy stream please show me the way on how to get it working, too.

I think I finally figured this whole bbpress thing out somewhat…finally!

I just need a little help from the community here to add one last thing.

My forum can be viewed here:

http://www.theurbantwist.com/community

Nevermind the “Company Man Comic” banner that’s there now…it’s just a place holder til I get a banner designed strictly for this forum.

I’m used the bbpress plugin and the default bbp-twentyten theme that came with it…nothing fancy. I just updated some of the css code that would apply to make some of the tables fit.

My main question is how could I go about adding a “Recent Topics” list on the front page of forum as seen on this site?

Open Forums

It looks they’re using the same default theme that I am.

Just curious as to how I would list Recent Topics beneath my forum list on the front page. Like what theme files would I have to edit and such.

Appreciate the help.

Thanks

[vatoloco2]

No unfortunately even with RC2 I didn’t get that activity stream working!

This is my setup:

Install WP 3.2.1

Install bbPress (first RC2 then RC3 now latest from trac.wordpress.org)

Install Buddypress (first beta1 then beta2 now latest from trac…)

Disable Discussion forums in Buddypress

With this setup I can’t see any bbPress related stuff in Buddypress activity. I have no other problems with this setup & combo! Am I doing something wrong?

[spaghetti]

@Gautam-Thanks for letting us know then.

[Micheal Kennedy]

Yeahp, no modifications to the forum or BuddyPress, just using the latest beta/RC versions of both. BuddyPress integration was built-in with bbPress RC2 (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/changelog/). Should be working for ya. What’s your site?

[rafi2press]

you will have to get development trunk version to get it fixed….

[vatoloco2]

I am also using the beta/RC of both! That Means bbpress 2.0RC3 and Buddypress 1.5 beta2. In addition I am also up2date with latest changes by using latest branch / trunk of both via trac.wordpress.org.

As stated earlier I have no problems at all with the combo of both. The only thing that doesn’t work is the fact that any bbpress forum post / topic / reply won’t appear in the buddypress activity stream.

So how did InterMike of allmad.org got this done? Any hint?
