Hey,

I’ve created a forum, some topics and some posts but when I click on anything in the forum it just goes to a “page not found”.

Heres the site

http://touchrugbyportugal.com/bbpress/

In fact most links go to that error page.

What have I not done?

Yah unfortunately it’s not a plugin… so you can’t easily turn it off. You can just rip references to favorites out of your themes:

Hi Gideons,

Mate, with respect, these aren’t really bbPress issues, it’s an issue with an independant theme given away some 2-3 months ago.

It sounds to me like a basic web design CSS issue, thats outwith teh scope of this board, but if you’re still struggling, please contact the theme author at: http://www.jasonmorehouse.com/bbpress-vanilla-theme

[kevinjohngallagher]

Hi Gideons,

I suggest you talk to the author directly at http://www.jasonmorehouse.com/bbpress-vanilla-theme

Hi Matt,

What version of bbPress are you using, what version of WordPress, are you definately 100% not using WPMU or BuddyPress, and are you using default themese ?

Thanks

I’m having this same problem.

This is an integrated BBpress w/ WordPress blog. When you click the “add new” link without being logged in, you are taken to a 403 error message page.

If you are logged in, you’re taken to the correct page.

What could be causing this?

I have been searching now for a few days…

@kevinjohngallagher

Any help making one? I don’t understand the loop in bbPress very well.

Thanks

[Rartemass]

Thank you for clearing that up.

[chrishajer]

Yes, you can install it at mydomain.com/forum, beside your blog, and you can integrate them.

[btko]

I like it — I look forward to trying it out.

[Rartemass]

I’ve started creating a blog with WordPress and it is working fine.

I now what to add in a forum (on a different page) that uses the WordPress login IDs.

I have found stuff to integrate the two but I have a question about installation directories.

WordPress is installed in mydomain/blog

Do I install bbPress there?

I wanted the forum page to be mydomain/forum

If I install to a directory with that name, can I still integrate with WordPress?

Sorry if this has been asked before but I was unable to find specif details on the forum, FAQ, or installation instructions.

[chrishajer]

It might be different but it doesn’t matter. It’s just taking advantage of leaving the closing php tag off.

@kevinjohngallagher you will never know the name of the architect! buhhaha (I don’t know either) They might be reading this.

So I have 1.1-alpha

I briefly had 1.03Trunk.

My question is will 1.1 have all 1.03 fixes.

for example bb-config-sample.php of 1.1 is the same as 1.02 but trunk is different (https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1282)

[chrishajer]

The only one I know of with answers to your questions is Matt Mullenweg. I don’t know if he’s put anyone in charge, but ultimately the responsibility is his.

[gerikg]

If you want it like this site…. An easy way to do it is…

the front page of the default theme is broken into two parts.

If you open front-page.php serach for these div codes, everything on the left is between “id=”hottags” role=”main””

Everything on the right is between “div id=”discussions”” JUst move what you want in them.

All you have to do is adjust the width/margin of both css styles.

style.css (line 285) #front-page #hottags for the left side change the width

style.css (line 293) #front-page #discussions change margin left to be 20px more than what you pick for the left column width and the width to fit.

(Why doesn’t this site have a demo on bbpress! I hate changing my theme back to default to answer questions!)

[gideons]

Update:

I have selected another theme terrafirmtwo by bbterminal.net

this one has a sidebar! (it actually ahs a sidebar.php file)

but in the sidebar it only shows: Tags

While I want to show:

frontpage

Forum List

Search Box

Hot Tags

RSS

Views

forum

Search Box

Info

Tags

RSS

any help appreciated I can upload the sidebar.php file if needed

[gideons]

I guess I just figured out something important thanks to another question kevinjohngallagher answered. Kakumai does not have a sidebar!

I did not realize, stupid me!

Anyway, I guess I am then looking to add a sidebar with the functions above or find another nice and simple theme, like bborg?

Gideon

[gideons]

Either way

If the theme from BBpress/Forums

is available great that woudl give me 85% of what I need

otherwise the code and an explanation where to stick it, I guess

although I am not a coder

thanks

[kevinjohngallagher]

any update on this?

It’s a place to list what plugins you would want.

I don’t think there’s much to update

any releases yet?

Plugins

Cunningly hidden in the top menu, under “plugins” ;-]

[kevinjohngallagher]

Hi Gideons,

I’m not really sure what you’re after here.

Are you wanting someone to give you a theme, or write the code for you to put in your own theme?

Kev

[gideons]

and the same for the forum view

side bar gives

Search Box

Info

Tags

RSS

Again Thanks

[gideons]

I would like to make my sidebar look like bborg sidebar

So with a Forum List

Search Box

Hot Tags

RSS

Views

and maybe even add a Latest Discussions

which shows the last five or ten active threads

in WP you just add widgets but bb does not seem to have that luxury

Thanks for your help

[harryxu]

Ok, done. https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1286

[kevinjohngallagher]

Yeah that’ll be it.

Please open a ticket in trac:

The latest Trunk has a few little glitches, but my singular site running the “trunk” version on and off for the last 6-8 weeks has been holding up very nicely indeed.

Gautum (et. all) have been doing some stellar work, and the fact that we’re finding more bugs to fix is never a bad thing. I’ve no issue with us bouncing around from 0 to 5 bugs as we make everything more stable – and really, it’s close to stable now just slightly less table than say a month ago.

We officially cleared the 1.0.3 trac que 2 weeks ago, and I’m sure we’ll do it again soon. Of course we’ll need someone to actually make the decision to package and release though…

=====================================================================

The big issue I have with 1.0.3 is that one of the outstanding bugs (#1228) is needing to be fixed in BackPress before we can release.

Given that we’re Leaderless, i’m wondering how’s taking control of that and communicating it with the BackPress team, and if we’re actually going to wait on a new version of BackPress to be released before we consider releasing 1.0.3? When is that new version of BackPress likely to arrive?

Who’s making these decisions?
