This one has a few tiny issues but should do the job:

There was moderation hold, but it’s a pretty old plugin:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-moderation-hold/#post-245

You might also want read-only forums?

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/read-only-forums/

That’s an old plugin as well.

I have same issue and have over 25,000 posts, how do I delete all the special characters from the post or is their a way to have them imported through the SQL

You need to check the URL requrested and basing on that use the theme

But i suppose you have WP and bbPress installed

[chrishajer]

I think you could do this with a theme switching plugin:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbpress-theme-switcher/

That particular plugin worked only through 0.9 though.

I think the idea would be to link to the forum using a direct link, specifying the template, or maybe set a cookie depending on where the visitor came from, then choosing the template based on that cookie.

I don’t think you need to modify bbPress at all – you just need to identify where the user comes from (cookie?) and set their template appropriately.

It will integrate users with WordPress, if you want that.

It’s easiest to just use the WordPress database – just be sure the table prefix is different for WordPress and bbPress. WordPress uses wp_ by default and bbPress uses bb_ by default. Just be sure they are different, or bbPress will mess up your WordPress installation. Like this:

Hi, iltdevunit

That really depends what you are going to do with you wordpress and bbPress installations.

Using one table (but differenct prefixes) will allow you to make better use of MySQL features as integration will be seamless.

As for bbPress – it could completely integrate into WordPress and could be standalone: so really it depends on you!

[iltdevunit]

Hi,

I’m about to install bbPress.

For the database information in installation step 1, do I put in the WordPress db settings or am I supposed to create a new database and put its details i?

I’m not sure if bbPress integrates into WordPress or if it is a completely stone-alone bb that just happens to be by the same people that brought us WordPress.

Cheers

I’m hoping this is possible, but am doubtful. Hopefully someone can help if it is possible.

I run a small community website. I have a friend that runs a similar but not exactly the same small community website. We were looking to become “sister” websites. What we want to do is have the message boards from both sites be a single board. This part isn’t what I’m worried about. I know it’s as simple as directing a link.

What we are wanting however is to have her WP theme show up as the bbP theme when entered from her domain.. And when entered from my domain, my WP theme to show up as the bbP theme. Does anyone feel this is 1) possible 2) relatively “easy” to accomplish? When I say relatively easy, I mean that I know it will be difficult, but I don’t want to re-write ALL of the bbPress code.

Thanks!

If you at all feel like you want to register, do it through WP, not bbPress. I haven’t altered the login system on bbPress yet

It’s very easy to use your sites template with bbpress

[phpcoder848]

nice one, how about the templates? do bbpress got a lot of templates? are they for free?

Hi, im a new in forums, and i need your all advice. I have a website and its being redesigned now, (www.iliketattoo.com) and i want to put forum on it. How hard is to do it with BBpress and where do i need to start?

Does any one have examples of their forums so i can see what it looks like?

any information will be appreciated.

thanx

[ZoiX]

Oops, I forgot the version: 1.0.2

[chrishajer]

You need a tool like phpMyAdmin to access the database directly so you can drop tables that were created by bbPress. Normally those tables begin with the prefix bb_, but if you changed that on installation your tables will be differently named.

http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/index.php

Make a backup of your database before you drop any tables.

Your host might have something installed already that can access the database directly. It would be listed in your control panel.

[PickledPC]

cool but how i can delete the file and have done that already but how do i drop the bbPress tables? Thanks for the help!

[chrishajer]

To reinstall, you need to drop the bbPress tables and delete the bb-config.php. Then you can reinstall.

[PickledPC]

ok so i uploaded fine, set-up fine, did the integration but did NOT set User Roles (BAD IDEA). Now the admin page has been removed because of the install, even un-installed the wordpress plugin. So I can’t fix it, tried to delete the forum folder and re-upload but the install is still there and still works just like it did, broke.

I can’t figure out how to correct the issue or even better a complete uninstall so I can follow the great tutorial here: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/basic-integration-screencast

I’m guessing it has something to do with the sql tables but I’m lost at this point. pickledpc.com

what is the best way to correct the issue? and how can I ensure a complete reset so that i can do a fresh install?

[meursault2]

Thanks, chrishajer, you’re a star!

[chrishajer]

This makes the block quotes on your test thread look different in my browser:

#thread .entry blockquote {

color:red;

padding:0 25px;

font-weight: bold;

font-style:italic;

}

Just add that after #thread .entry in your style.css and change the styling rules to whatever you want.

[meursault2]

I want to indent it.

A good looking quote.

As it stands, to quote text the forum users and I have to write:

“A bad looking quote”

because neither BBquote nor HTML has any effects whatsoever.

[chrishajer]

What do you mean “does not work”? It just doesn’t change the look of things inside the blockquote tag? What do you want it to do instead?

Using a heavily-customized theme of Options 0.1 Alpha (Dark) by Justin Tadlock (http://bbshowcase.org/themes/bbpress-options.zip)

[blockquote]Quite simply, the problem is that BBquotes don’t work.[/blockquote]

It doesn’t matter whether I use

Quote:

, [blockquote] or the HTML code for blockquotes.

I’ve noticed that removing the { margin: 0; padding: 0; } at the very start of the style.css does enable it, but it jumbles up the paddings and alignments for the header menus and topic posts. My attempts to import code enabling normal quoting from other themes were unsuccessful. PS. Justin’s “Structure” theme also doesn’t support quotes.

Any help or advice will be much appreciated, thank you.

Hi there,

my turn, I suppose!

Well, the ioni2 theme is deeply integrated with WordPress (it relies on WP to build menu and parts of footer, for instance), but in any other aspect it is purely bbPress:

forum.sunshine.by

Uses:

• Akismet
• Allow Images (allthough truth to tell it is not working as well as it is supposed to.. but alas!)
• bbPress Sitemap Generator
• bbPress Web Compression (A must have!)
• Related Topics
• Simple Online List
• Topic Icons (almost useless with my theme)

There are not much people of the forum so you may freely check it out and try post anything to see how it is working! The theme is translated into Russian (although written in English), and shall you desire to get it – just let me know The same goes for the translation.

The major point here is that the theme is HTML5 (I keep developing it, just keep that in mind) – and it looks exacly the same in IE, FF, Chrome, Opera and Safari
