Hi all!

I have a bbPress instalation at http://foro.inkframe.com

If you click the page number 2, everything fine, but, if you click in the number 1 or “Anterior”, the forum show page 2 again, like a F5. The only way for come back to the first page is clicking in the title.

I am not expert in bbPress theme development, but anyway I think that is not the problem, the only option I change, is the number of posts to 10, I am not sure, but, by default is 20. Thank you for your help

There’s no official docs… so this is as good as we’ve got here:

Can someone please point me to any information that is available on the bbPress XML-RPC API and how to use it?

Many thanks.

I’m in the middle of my first bbpress theme design and have a couple hopefully simple questions.

1) How can I change the size of the Avatar size?

2) I’m using the default themes basic layout structure and then theming my design around that. The somewhere and I can’t seem to find it there is a style that makes the odd number row a light gray and the even number rows white. I’m just looking for a way to make both of them a shade of gray but were they are still different colors. I would also like to do this to the topics and forums list on the front page of the bbpress install but haven’t figured out how make it happen dynamically and it sure looks like there is a way.

Sounds like something you could do with JQuery.

Check the forum list at the bottom of this page:

http://www.lawserver.com/forums/

That’s bbPress and done with JQuery I believe.

[chrishajer]

It’s part of the download. You can just make a copy of all the files and rename it to something else.

Or, just grab all the files here for 1.0.2:

https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/tags/1.0.2/bb-templates/kakumei

Is there a way to download the stock theme “Kakumei” or is it part of the bbPress download? I want a copy of it to try out changes without disturbing the original. Thanks.

“It can be accomplished with bbPress, with a little elbow grease, but I definitely don’t think it should rate on the list of core upgrades included in the next release. “

Google Wave supports threaded dicussions, cos threads are out of date, stupid, no purpose to them etc. ????

To be able to iron out a point raised during a discussion it is critical to discuss the same point in a branch and not someware 50 comments away. If you have threads the you can choose to use them or not.

Users want bbpress cos it integrates with WP not cos it’s a great product. It’s crap. Lacks basic functionality like private forums, threaded discussions. If you add to that comments like Ola’f “I don’t get you, if you’re looking for a different kind of forum software, why don’t you ask the other forum what software he is using… ” then no one should use bbpress and it should be pulled out.

“There was a plugin to allow for a threaded forum. It’s almost a year old though:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/threaded-posts/ “

Doesn’t work with bbpress v1.0.

By the looks of it, it’s an action that’s called as bb_deactivate_plugin_$plugin, so the action hook’s name is specific to the plugin. The $plugin value is shown in the URL for activating a specific plugin.

Does anybody have an idea how to implement a plugin, which reacts upon a click on a ‘+’ or ‘-‘ sign within (at the end of) a category header within a forum list (say on frontpage) to display or hide the respective forums listed below the category header?

Eventually extending _ck_’s solution(s):

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/hiding-subforms-on-your-home-page

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-request-exclude-specific-forum-topics-from-front-page-latest#post-9018

with a JavaScript?

[bb-gian]

@technotip: apparently you got the same problem as me with images not working with TinyMCE and Allow Images installed. D you find a solution for it?

If so, it’d be nice if you could share. I posted a specific topic, so in case you got a solution, you may want to post it there.

Thanks a lot.

Hello,

I’m developing a bbpress plugin and I have a task to execute on plugin activation.

I’ve seen that the bb_register_activation_hook functions is deprecated, while i can found the definition of the wp function: register_activation_hook.

however when i use this function inside a plugin, the function cannot be found.

What do I have to do?

here is the code:

<?php

/*

Plugin Name:XXX

Description:XXX

Version 1.0

*/

register_activation_hook(__FILE__, ‘mp_activation’);

register_deactivation_hook(__FILE__, ‘mp_deactivation’);

function mp_activation() {

…

}

function mp_deactivation() {

…

}

?>

Isn’t there anybody that was able to make images work with TinyMCE intagrated in bbPress? I can’t believe that such a basic funtion like images in posts is so coplicated with bbPress. I know it’s LIGHTWEIGHT, but basic feaures like that should not be considered luxuriuos options that are so hard to get and to make work.

Can anybody tell if at least IS possible to have images to work with TinyMCE in bbPress?

[bb-gian]

I installed both TinyMCE 3.2.7 and the Allow Images plugin on a bbPress 1.0.1, but images and emoticoms (which are images as well) don’t work.

I don’t know what problem it might be. Any hint or help?

(I did fix the annoyance with the <p> tag that TinyMCE has, now I need images to work.)

I find looking at a bbPress install database pretty unnerving with all the relational IDs around the place

[InvTrdr]

Thanks. Also I was looking at this bbPress theme in the showcase and it is sort of narrow. How do I make it as wide as this one?

Thanks.

[InvTrdr]

Will try. Not too good at it yet. Am learning from the great WP and bbPress community as I go. Thought there might be a default stock theme with a navigation bar on it. Or can you guide me as to what code needs to be added in the CSS and header.php files?

Thanks.

[InvTrdr]

What I meant was a navigation bar similar to the one in this template above and just below the bbPress logo.

Thanks.

[johnhiler]

Oh no… please don’t test it unless you are on 0.8.x!!

It’s definitely not recommended for 0.9 or 1.0… I just linked to it so you could check out the code, in the event that you were interested in adapting it to support more recent bbPress versions!

@gerikg: I’m open to the idea. I played around with it a bit initially, but finally concluded that the forum was a totally different means of displaying information, and that the negative impact to the layout outweighed any perceived benefit of “consistency”.

With the blog and other sections, the left sidebar provides navigation within the section, which really isn’t applicable to the forum. Likewise, the right sidebar provides external links, which also aren’t applicable to the forum.

And, when I tried to put Views/Stats/Tags into a left sidebar on the forum, I just didn’t think that it fit very well (especially the tag cloud), and cramped the more important content (the forum and post lists themselves).

I could keep playing around with it, though…

@chandersbs: Thanks! Is it approaching something that others would find useful?

[chandersbs]

I like the layout, it’s looking good.

Guys,

The past few months, i’ve spent 100+ hours on working on my site which was previously SMF-buiild. Now it’s fully bbPress, I’d like to show you guys, and perhaps receive feedback as well.

I used the Kakumei theme to create my own.

Take a look http://www.metalsuriname.com

Feedback/tips regarding design/usability/plugin options etc are always welcome.

O and also, A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU WHO HELPED ME IN A WAY OR ANOTHER

bbPress functions have a set of default values that are overwritten by the arguments passed when it’s called, so if a value isn’t specified for something, it stays with the default.

Hi All,

I’m trying to move over from Apache to Lighttpd, but I’m getting a 404 error from my WordPress-MU site when I’m trying to access the BBPress installer.

At the moment, I just have WordPress-MU installed, and the site.conf file says:

server.error-handler-404 = “/index.php”

url.rewrite-once = (

“^/(.*/)?files/$” => “/index.php”,

“^/(.*/)?files/(.*)” => “/wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2”,

“^(/wp-admin/.*)” => “$1”,

“^/([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-.*)” => “/$2”,

“^/([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*.php)$” => “/$2”,

)

I tried adding a line in there that said:

“^(/forum/.*)” => “$1”,

Thinking that would stop WordPress-MU from ‘taking over’ the URL, but it didn’t help.

I’ve searched the forums and found some lighttpd rewrite rules for once the site is installed. I tried adding some of those, but with no joy.

Any pointers would be much appreciated.
