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?

Can somebody with forum categories setup on their bbPress 1.0.2 install check to see if forum category RSS feeds are working for you?

eg.

Parent category <– check this RSS forum feed

–Sub-forum 1

–Sub-forum 2

Example RSS URL :

example.com/forums/rss/forum/parent-category

example.com/forums/rss/forum/parent-category/topics

Thanks!

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.

Yes.

I like the way that WordPress.org’s forums have buttons for inserting the allowed mark-ups. Did they just add those buttons themselves? Is there a plugin that does that?

While I’m at it, I’d like people to be able to insert links to images in their bbPress posts. I don’t want anyone uploading their images to my server, but if they want to put a picture up on Kodak.com or photobucket.com or wherever & link to it, I’m ok with that. Are there any plugins that do that?

Friendly bump.

I know it’s summer & times are slow. I cannot use Firefox to view the local copy of my website when I am making changes. If I am using Firefox, I have to make my changes locally, upload them to the host, and then I can test the changes. This is a lot slower than doing everything locally — just from the increased number of steps.

Thanks

I’m working on my first bbPress theme and I am going to have two columns on most pages. I will likely vary the content of this second column depend on which page you are on.

I’d like to use a separate sidebar just like WordPress so that I can create a few different files that I could load.

These sidebars need not draw any content from WordPress, I don’t need deep integration or anything. I’m just wondering what would be the best way to go about doing this.

Theme Playground’s bbPress forum has it’s sidebar added to the footer.php file, which sounds like a good idea, but seems a bit impractical for multiple sidebars.

I also found this simple sidebar plugin in the forums which adds the “bb_get_sidebar()” function to bbPress. A neat idea, but I hate to frivolously add extra plugins, especially when it is essential for the theme to work properly.

So what I have done in my theme is to simply use an include like this:

<?php include ('sidebar.php'); ?>

This has been working fine for me and I don’t see any reason not to do it like this.

But does anyone else have a different method that has some advantage? Or is there plans for, or already an official function like “bb_get_sidebar()” that I am unaware of?

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

It should be possible but I don’t know of any tutorial written to do so. I’d be inclined to say make your regular website with WP and integrate them, but that would be the lazy way 0:)

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Make sure you flush all your cookies and then double check that the keys from wp-config are correct in bb-config. Usually that’s a cookie missmatch.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Not for bbPress 0.9. From 1.0 on there can be.

[anandasama]

In WordPress you need to Rewind posts for faking multiple loops but it doesn’t exist in BbPress?

@tom thanks for the core hack. I will try it, and then write a custom query for forum 17 with no pagination.

[tomschulze]

Yup, I do… even though I thought that for WP 2.8.x this is no longer required. Anyway, it doesn’t make a difference whether it’s activated or not, I’ve tried both.

[bradleyscott]

Oh and just so you have the links: mywnde.com/socialbb = bbpress install

mywnde.com = wpmu install

[bradleyscott]

I am running WPMU 2.8.2 and just grabbed bbPress 1.0.2 They are on separate db’s that are both located on the same localhost.

When integrating, I used the advanced features and set everything up according to what I was supposed to.

When I login to bbpress, it just refreshes the page as if I had not logged in. I can tell that the Key is technically working because if I enter a wrong password on purpose, it sends me to an error page, so I’m guessing something is off with the Cookies.

Any suggestions… all the solved issues regarding these problems are all 2+ years old. I am assuming things have changed.

[Jim R]

Not sure I’m changing both the cookie keys, but I am making sure they match. BTW…I’m using WPMU. Latest versions of both products.

thanks Sam! is possible have the pot in the next hours?

[Arturo]

very cool! when the new site online?

[anandasama]

That is navigation for the front page, not topics.

My topics navigation works fine with permalinks but I also have the same problem with permalinks on the latest discussion (like on endrant.org).

I use Plugin: “Topics Per Page” .. I Added the replace in htaccess with no luck.

Using bbpress 1.0.1

Is there any other plugin or built in function that do the same trick for latest discussions?

Seems bbpress.org works with permalink / latest discussion pagination.

How do their code look like?

[_ck_]

This will remove the ability for moderators to see IPs anywhere in bbPress.

add_filter('get_roles','no_view_ip');

function no_view_ip($roles){unset($roles['moderator']['capabilities']['view_by_ip']); return $roles;}

It will work in bbPress 0.9 or 1.0.

In 1.0 you can just put it into functions.php in your template folder or make it into a mini-plugin for 0.9

this video helps greatly.

(you can skip some of the beginning, it’s him installing wordpress.)

[Sean Metzgar]

You need to ensure you’re changing the cookie keys located in the bb_config and wp_config files. Also make sure you’re using the appropriate wp/bbp integration plugin.
