If you are using 1.0, create a file called functions.php in your current theme directory, and put all that code into it.
If you’re using less than 1.0, you can create a plugin from that code. Just add a plugin header to the top of all that, like this:
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: WordPress pages for bbPress
*/
?>
And put it into file called something like wordpress-pages.php and drop that into folder called my-plugins at the same level as bb-plugins. If the folder is not there, you can create it. After it’s in the folder, log into the admin, you should see it there, then activate it. And report back how it worked for you.
Thanks
Looks great! I quite like the gravatar size, the current ones are way too small IMO. I don’t understand why the bees are everywhere though.
It seems whenever I use any ‘include’ statement, I get this type of error:
Warning: include_once(/wpm/wp-load.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/jwrbloom/public_html/wpm/bbpress/bb-config.php on line 4
That’s what I’m getting now with what is recommended at the top.
Hi, in many SNSs users can create their own group and manage on their own. I’m wondering if there’s any bbpress plugin available for doing this? Thanks!
No i didnt find any plugins for older versions.
Yes, thats what i am looking for: Just have a chat function that a logged in member could use, without having to log in again to something else.
If it is integrated in bbpress, so members dont have to use an external program.
Ok. So I don’t want my wordpress anymore. However, I do want the forum. So what i need is the members from the site to be transfered to the forum with all their information intact along with the topics. I also want to move the forum from bbpress to the root. Thanks in advance.
That makes sense, I’ll stick with a vanilla include then, I’d rather have my themes be fast and simple.
Hi,
I update 0.9.0.4 -> 0.9.0.5 and see blank page in register.php and won’t log in. Update to 0.9.0.6 and see blank page in register.php and won’t log in. I download from backup 0.9.0.4 and work good. Don’t understand why new bbpress 0.9.0.6 don’t work… Sorry bad English.
Doing it through bb_get_template simply fires an extra filter – but nothing else is aware of sidebars in bbPress yet so it’s pointless. Plus I wasn’t aware you could use require on a function. Then bb_get_template uses another include/require so it’s massive overkill (or just wrong in the first place).
@chrishajer, no database upgrade is needed.
Have you found any working plugins for older versions? I don’t see chat come up too often.

I’ve never heard of anything working. Exactly what are you trying to accomplish? Just have a chat function that a logged in member could use, without having to log in again to something else?
I would think that would be useful as a plugin for people wanting to integrate their WordPress page navigation into bbPress. has anyone tried it out?
How about the “Topics per page” plugin?
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/front-page-topics/
It lets you set the number of topics to be returned for many bbPress pages/views.
For upgrading from version 1.0.1 to 1.0.2, is there a database change that would require you to run the upgrade script? I would like to know rather than have to log in and check each install individually. FWIW, one I did so far did NOT have an upgrade message in the backend, so I am assuming I do not need to, to go from 1.0.1 to 1.0.2. Just checking.
Thanks for the info _ck_, glad to hear that I’m not way off track.
Yeah, I have been loading the sidebar after the content, but just above the footer include, rather than in the footer, so that I can use different sidebars easily.
I wouldn’t want to take credit for Ryan Imel’s work! Only linked to Theme Playground as an example, but you’re right, he did an awesome job on integrating the forums into the rest of his site.
Now that I scroll down and read the comments on his post a little closer, I see that Justin Tadlock mentioned another way to add a sidebar, but it looks to have the same end result as a regular include:
require_once( bb_get_template( 'sidebar.php' ) );
I’m not sure if I can match Ryan’s quality design, but I’m going to try to do a few fresh looking bbPress themes to share with the community.
You should mention if you are using 0.9 or 1.0
Do a full recount from the admin menu and see if the problem is fixed.
If you are using the Topics Per Page plugin you should disable it and see if the problem is fixed. Otherwise it’s an internal bug and should be filed on http://trac.bbpress.org
Using include is fine and fastest. Remember to try to load the sidebar AFTER your content if you care about things like SEO where content should come first. This would imply doing the include in the footer and floating the main content left and the sidebar right (or visa versa).
Nice work on your theme, seamlessly integrated.

Can’t find anywhere in bbpress folders and database…
is that some easter egg? how to change that color from # 666?!
Just set it in the various places in your theme.
In a previous thread, I was advised to change the size in template-functions.php:

Needless to say, not the solution I wanted but it worked.
FF 3.5.1. Running on a recent MacBook with OS X 10.5.7.
I deleted all of the cookies in Firefox & cleared the cache. No difference in behavior.
The hosted site is definitely working right. Could it be some kind of rights issue on the local files?

What version of FireFox?
Have you dumped your cache and flushed your cookies?
I’m having the exact same issue too, although I’m using bbpress 1.0.2. IE6 it’s missing, FF 3.x works.
From what I’ve gathered, its an issue with #bbAdminMenu negative margin in the bb-adminstyle.css file.
I can’t seem to figure anything out that fixes it (I can get it to show, but formatting is awful) and I really don’t want to have to dive into the actual markup.
Edit: Just found a solution/hack
Due to the IE6 double margin bug, you’ll need to do a little css hacking. In bb-adminstyle.css:
add: _margin-left: -83px; to ul#bbAdminMenu {…}
add: _margin-left: -25px; to body.bb-menu-folded ul#bbAdminMenu{…}
note the ‘_’ before the css. this is for IE6 to read it but no other browser as far as I know.
