Hey Andrew,

I’m wondering the same thing. I’m using your EcoPro theme and trying to get a plugin to work which calls wp_footer. This hook isn’t working on bbPress pages though.

Did you ever figure this out?

Thanks man! I will try to make it work today in the afternoon. Thanks for the functions.php tip, good one. Have a good day everyone.

[Rich Pedley]

LwEEs – child theme…

and you could always copy the content of functions.php to your existing one.

There may be some more magic involved in order for the session to persist across both installs.

Indeed my friend, mostly because bbPress doesn’t use sessions (it uses encrypted cookies.)

Over the last few weeks, I’ve experienced the same problem with spammers on one of the forums I’ve set up. Akismet hasn’t worked, no-spam-user hasn’t worked, recaptcha hasn’t worked. Anyone have any success blocking this new generation of spambots? (I love bbpress but seeing the same spam here is disheartening.)

Dude, you screw me over with the new changes, can we have functions.php be bbp_functions.php, and author.php be bbp_author.php. Here is why, I’m hacking my way into the plugin by placing the pages in my theme then adjusting the CSS, since the new pages would overwrite my theme pages, it doest work. I know this is not your anyones priority, I will totally understand if this request doesn’t happen.

Great job guys, happy holidays.

It’s fairly easy to do

check the style.css in the included twentyten child theme and you’ll see this:

/**

* Theme Name: bbPress - Twenty Ten

* Theme URI: http://bbpress.org

* Description: Adds bbPress forums to Twenty Ten theme

* Author: The bbPress Community

* Version: 0.1

* Template: twentyten

* Tags: bbpress, black, blue, white, two-columns, fixed-width, custom-header, custom-background, threaded-comments, sticky-post, translation-ready, microformats, rtl-language-support, editor-style

*/

The template denotes another available theme that you are making this the child of. If you include the main style sheet, you don’t need to re-reference everything. eg. @import url("../twentyten/style.css");

So create a new theme directory by including that, and copy all the other files(ie not style.css) from plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten (not forgetting to rename the Theme name)

However you might want to copy in the default style, this start’s with:

/* bbPress Style

*/

Then you need to check where the get_header(), get_sidebar() & get_footer() are in your parent theme.

If they are in this order:

get_header();

/* Content */

get_sidebar();

get_footer();

you don’t have to do anything.

However if they are in a different order you may need to adjust, currently they reside in the following files:

page-bbp_form.php

author.php

taxonomy-bbp_topic.php

single-bbp_topic.php

single-bbp_reply.php

single-bbp_forum.php

page-bbp_topics.php

page-bbp_front.php

and I think that is all that’s needed! (untested though)

I have been waiting for a WP forum plug-in for so long, I don’t mind working with page templates to be one of the early adopters. If short code support comes later, then that would be icing on the cake.

I do hope, at some point, detailed information is available on how to build the bbPress pages for other themes. As long as this documentation is avaialble, I don’t think this should be a deal breaker for anybody.

Thanks!

when you install bbpress, it will ask you for the database name, username, and password. If for example you had shared hosting and multiple domains hosted out of the same public_html directory, it would be easy just to specify the same database for several installs.

Not sure how bbpress would then handle the sessions in terms of logging in and out; there may be some more setting you would need to adjust.

Where? In the codes or when you install bbpress?

I’ve cross-posted this on the BuddyPress forum. Moderators are free to close this thread so discussion happens in one place, but I figured there should be a notice on this domain as well.

@jjj

Any thought of combining the bbpress twenty ten theme you are developing with twenty ten for buddypress that Andrea is working on? That would be ideal for me, and I assume several others, because we are planning on using both plugins.

Anyone else having a problem with New Replies not bumping their Topic to the top of the list in a Forum?

[abdessamad idrissi]

I’m a nub, I want 5 different bbpress install but user will only need to sign-in once. My site links to different bbpress forums, I don’t want the user to keep having to sign-up for each forums.

Use one database.

Also, what is a RSS feed?

I’ve just updated my WordPress blog from version 2.0 to 3.0.1 and subsequently upgraded BBPress from version 0.8.3 to the latest release (1.0.2?). However, now all the users of the forum are displaying as inactive on the front end despite the fact that they have a ‘member’ role when viewed through the admin panel.

I suspect this is related to the fact that the users are shared between WordPress and BBPress – in WordPress they have no role.

The problem is that there are 45000 subscribers so to change these manually will take quite some time. I think I’m also right in saying that users in WordPress with no role don’t have any meta values so I’m not sure this can be addressed by finding and replacing anything in the database.

Does anyone have any ideas? I really don’t want to have to assign these users roles by going through 30 at a time in the WordPress admin screens!

Thanks in advance for your help.

Weird, thanks 3sixty. I had recently readded the plugin and forgot to reset that. It works fine now. Originally i had set 900 as the character limit but i updated the plugin and it was restored to the default 300.
