well, i can see you have issues with spambots here on the official site. which is a turn off.
I am interested in a NON beta release. Whatever is most applicable
Hey guys!
So I’ve got the “Yen” theme purchased from Themesforest, and he hasn’t mentioned to me that the theme comes ready for bbpress. However, the bbpress plugin (along with the bbpress integration plugin) is actually working fine when it comes to allowing my site to have a fully functional forums section.
My issue, however, is that I really don’t like the current look. It just doesn’t look very good to me, and I’d love to be able to apply a theme to the layout in place of it, just like a typical single installation of bbpress would be.
Any way to help me on this? I can’t seem to figure out how to change the theme of this layout. I’ve never posted here before, and I did look around a little bit… but if this question has an answer, I’d love to be directed to it (and.. “sorry for the repeat post).
Thanks again everyone.

Which version of bbPress are you interested in, the standalone (version 1.03) or WordPress plugin (version 2.0)?
Is this possible? I never read thru the faq’s but i saw a site using your software and I love it. Is this possible? I never edited any of the raw php code in php, but changed the template a bit so the banner points to /. can this be easily done? I do have one custom theme….would that need to go? please direct me to the FAQ on this procedure
I made a first translation in glotpress for the french… And I wanted to test it on the beta version… I exported a .mo file from glotpress… I put it in the bbp-language folder but this not enough… What else?
Thanks a lot… This looks very promising !!
Best
P.
I got a reponse to a later posting which told me the reason this wasn’t working was that I wasn’t using the standalone version of BBPress.
I got a reponse which told me the reason this wasn’t working was that I wasn’t using the standalone version of BBPress. I was using the worpress plugin version which meant this wouldn’t work.
I appreciate you taking the time to respond with such helpful information, you have saved me many more hours of hunting. I’ll take a look at those plugins you mentioned.
Thanks
If you already have installed WordPress, you’re probably better off using the plugin that you can easily install from the admin pages of your site.
Go to Plugins / Add New and search for bbPress.
As for uploading something, use a FTP client like Filezilla.
I think WanGuard is the only one that works with the plugin, didn’t test it though, but it claims it does.
Aside from that none of them will work, because the plugin is totally different on the inside.
As for restricting users, try the Members plugin by Justin Tadlock. That seems to work pretty well, although I have a problem with that one too (just posted about it in a different topic).
Thanks for your information.
I am trying to install them for the plugin. Does that therefore mean none of the plugins on this site will work on my wordpress plugin version? If so, is there any way of adding the restrict user and remove post functionality?
Are you trying to install the plugins for this site in combination with the bbPress plugin or with the standalone edition?
The plugins on this site are for the standalone edition, not for the plugin, so that could be the problem.
When i try to install the following plugin – Restrict registration for bbPress (2.0.3) i get a fatal error.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_get_option() in /opt/lampp/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/restrict-registration-for-bbpress/restrict-registration.php on line 149
I have had this with every plugin I have tried to install from this site and am beginning to wonder if it is a server issue. Does anyone have any ideas what might be causing this?
Thanks
did you understand how template files are called? the index page of the forum is front-page.php?
you have to include bbpress template files in wp-content/themes/yourwptheme
Hi John,
You’re exactly right. I updated my Word Press after writing you and doing my changes and low and behold, the two functions that were missing are now in place. Thanks for commenting.

@dehicks – Incorrect. is_post_type_archive() is new in 3.1 and not deprecated at all.
Ok. I did come up with a solution. Apparently is_post_type_archive has been deprecated and the current function is is_archive().
So I substituted the is_archive for each error I got (about four instants) the initial error and it seems to process ok.
The original function and the new function are located in wp-includes/query.php.
sorry but i dont understand a thing, template files have different name from 1.0 to 2.0?
i’ve now installed the 2.0 plugin version just for test, but under the docs section of this site there are named template files which i cant find in bbp-twentyten theme.
For example front-page.php is deprecated?
now do we have to use page-front-forums?
someone can help?
p.s. sorry for my bad english
p.s.2 i’m a good wordpress theme developer

Hi John,
I’m having the same problem. Was wondering if you figured it out.
I’ve set up BBPress and configured it for integration with my Word Press Blog.
Then installed the plugin in WP. Now I’m getting the same error and can’t access my website.
Here’s the error text
Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_post_type_archive() in /home2/premarit/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-common_template.php on line 90.
I’ve tried locating this function is-post-type-archive but have not yet found it.
Any ideas?
Hello,
I’m adding bbPress 2.0 beta 3 to a WordPress site. It seems to work pretty well, except that it says on my profile “You are not currently subscribed to any topics.” even though I am subscribed to two topics. The same goes for Favorite forums and Topics Created.
I checked the code and it seems that bbp_get_user_topics_started(), bbp_get_user_subscriptions() and bbp_get_user_favorites() are all returning false. I’m logged in as the user with ID 2 and these rows are in the usermeta table:
37 2 _bbp_favorites 54,56
41 2 _bbp_subscriptions 56,61
That suggests that favorizing and subscribing works, but there seems to be a bug in bbp_get_user_subscriptions(), bbp_get_user_topics_started() and bbp_get_user_favorites().
In the file bbp-user-functions.php the function bbp_get_user_favorites on line 193 return array(2) { [0]=> string(2) “54” [1]=> string(2) “56” } but bbp_has_topics() on line 197 return false. I guess the same happens in bbp_get_user_subscriptions() so the problem should be in the function bbp_has_topics().
I’m not enough of a WP-expert to dive into bbp_has_topics(), which is why I’m posting here. Do you know what the problem could be?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I have installed bbpress on my wordpress site:
http://www.sithinquisitors.com/sith-inquisitor-forums/
The problem I have is that my sites theme has 3 columns meaning the forum is squashed, I was wondering if there was a way to stop the 2 columns on the right (that contain showing whilst viewing the forum.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
is there a possibility to add BBCode to bbPress 2.0?
The plugin “BBCode Lite for BuddyPress” is written for bbPress 1.x and doesn’t work when put into wp-content/plugins.
Thanks,
