Hello,

I am looking to change color of “text” and I tried to it by using CSS but it can’t work, but when I use the instruction that you provide in your thread then my problem get resolved.

[webdotcom]

Was due to an image upload with hardware as the file name. Doesn’t seem right that bbpress doesn’t have its own “namespace” or taxonomy (sorry not wp pro here). Or am I just missing something?

[webdotcom]

Hello,

I was creating a forum in the admin, and after publishing, the slug “hardware” had a -2 on it, so became hardware-2

There’s no other forum with the same slug, so I don’t understand why its adding the -2 on it.

So my question is: How do I avoid slug conflicts?

I have a woocommerce category called “hardware” as well, but even trying to change that to “hardwares” I still cannot use “hardware” without the “-2” for the forum.

Are bbpress’ slugs and terms not “segmented” under “/forums”?? Can I not have a “hardware” shop category and a “hardware” forum?

Please advise!

WordPress 4.7.3
bbPress 2.5.12

Everything was working fine with WooCommerce 2.6.14. I had forum root set to ‘community’ and I created a page with the slug ‘community’. When navigating to /community WP was displaying my page.

After updating to WooCommerce 3.0.1 WP now displays the forum root (archive-forum.php) instead of the my custom page (page-community.php).

If I switch to storefront or any of the recent Twenty * themes the problem goes away. If I use my theme and disable all other plugins, the problem persists. So this seems to be a conflict between my theme and WooCommerce that is causing this issue.

I can resolve the issue by changing either the forum root or my page slug but I would prefer not to do that. Any ideas on how I might be able to resolve this and keep my URLs intact?

Do you happen to have the answer to this as well…?
It is WooCommerce related, not bbPress though.

I would like to change the color of the text when filling out username.
Through WooCommerce I have a page ‘My account’ and in it two text boxes. One for username, one for password.
The text on my site is white, the background of these fields also.
So when you type name or passwords, it’s invisable.

I would like to add code to custom CSS to solve this.

What would be the code for this?

I think the element is called something like this…
input#username.woocommerce-Input.woocommerce-Input–text.input-text.

(I am slowly learning how CSS works, tried to do it myself but it didn’t work…)

[bjoernschiffer]

Yes its work i have only change the bbPres version on bbPress version 2.6-beta-6251
thank you !!!

[paperprofit]

That worked. Tesseract does have an area for “customizing additional CSS” and that is where I put the code you entered.

Incidentally, is there a good plugin to customize my bbPress look and feel?

Thank you very much.

[paperprofit]

I have the exact same issue. However, I am beginner, and I do not understand where to locate or modify the style.css. Is this a theme or a bbpress thing?

I seem to be missing a menu item appearance>>css editor, I suspect that this is a theme-specific issue. I am using the Tesseract theme.

What could I do?

[Pascal Casier]

Hi @myrax

Should be something like this:

#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form legend {
    background-color: #121212;
    color: #DDDDDD;
}

[Pascal Casier]

Hi @nesiditsa

Nice one ! I didn’t find it 🙂

@dayan89

The above mentioned fix has been added to bbPress 2.6. We are at the beta 2 (that you could download from https://bbpress.org/download/ ) so we are close to releasing the real 2.6 . If you have a test environment please switch to 2.6 beta already and see that it works !

[Pascal Casier]

One extra info : If you are running PHP 7.x and you have 2.6 alpha, please install 2.6 beta 2 from https://bbpress.org/download/ and let me know if it’s fixed.

[Pascal Casier]

@cvince99 and @bjoernschiffer

Please provide your WP version, bbPress version and other info e.g. :
WP version 4.7.3
bbPress version 2.6-beta-6251
Theme Twenty Seventeen 1.1

And if you can get to this :
PHP version 5.6.28
DB info DB charset: utf8 / DB collation: utf8_general_ci

Thanks.

[nesiditsa]

Hi, dayan89! You should do corrections in core code of bbpress – https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5338. After that it needs to run “Recalculate the position of each reply” repair tool (Пересчитать положение каждого ответа – in Russian).

ihave the same problem what can i do ?

First pass at diagramming bbPress Theme Compat. Have not included info at https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/template-hierarchy-in-detail/ – haven’t read the source code for it nor played with those yet.

SVG embedded in HTML – use Ctrl/Cmd + to zoom in and Ctrl/Cmd - to zoom out. Right click + drag right/left as needed after zooming in.

The arrows showing template partials pointing to the other partials pointing to the main template file/s could be confusing for many. Possibly, itemizing each main template file in association to the partials would be clearer e.g.

/theme-folder
     |__ archive-forum.php
              |__ /bbPress folder 
                        |__ content-archive-forum.php
                                   |__ form-search.php
                                   |__ loop-forums.php
                                   |__ feedback-no-forums.php

Thanks to this thread: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-do-i-change-the-color-of-the-text-and-box/ I was able to change a lot of colors, since the theme of my site is dark background with white letters.

There is one code I’m still looking for.
When you reply to a topic, above the large reply field it says ‘Reply to [name of topic].
This text is still in white and it needs to be black.

Can anyone provide me with the right code so I can add this to the custom CSS?
Much appreciated!

[horizon70s]

I’m trying a plugin called Gator Cache to speed up the site since I can’t find another caching plugin that works with bbpress.

FYI

[5lions]

I AM a hosting provider. Crazy fast servers. Siteground can hold a candle to what I run 😉

But when software is this bogged down, the hardware cost is just too high to justify. I would have to charge my customers 10X to make up for the performance difference and new hardware requirements.

Ive been optimizing for weeks, but the sad truth is, I could run on 1/5th-1/10th the hardware if I simply switched to other forum software that was built from the ground up to run forums. WordPress architecture has bbPress’s hands effectively tied.

[jaroslawistok]

Since are buddypress and bbpress now cooperating I thing there is more compatibility in their Plugins. When I put a media Link to buddypress wall it shows in player (Video and audio).

But bbpress only has an option to embed media which maybe even mostly work but on buddypress the media link than appears as code (Video scr = ….and so).

Why doesn’t bbpress use just mediaelements.js script as core from WP and maybe ads oEmbed instead?

There is no possible to have similar design in both.

eather buddypress shows links in Player or bbpres.
Any Idea?

Also there is a problem to have this also in comments.

jetpack makes also codes. It shows it in player but in buddypress stream again (video src=…)

Is there any solution to have media Links and embedded elements in the same way on buddypress, bbpress and comments?

Thankfully for any Idea :o)

[5lions]

Well, even after killing the heartbeat, and running a hardware/software that is probably at least 400% faster, my users are complaining about how slow everything is.

I may have to start the nightmare of migrating to yet another solution. 🙁

The newish wpForo forum plugin for wordpress looks very nice, and yhey use their own set of tables so probably very fast.

***BUT*** they have no 301 redirect solution from bbPress which means I would lose all my google rankings. So thats a deal breaker.

Its 2017 and forum solutions are still bad. Frustrated as hell. Cant find anything that works well and integrates with wordpress well. Burned soooo much time on this.

Hello fellow bbpressers,

I have a problem. Latest reply link in sidebar widget is not functioning properly in a thread with big amount of replies. On other threads it is functioning correctly.

Link is like this: http://dailyfantasysports.ru/forum/topic/ponesli-sandali-mityu/#post-21564

You see? There is no page slug in URL!

It has to be like this: http://dailyfantasysports.ru/forum/topic/ponesli-sandali-mityu/page/53/#post-21564

But it’s not!

How to fix it?

I’ve tried to repair forums (WordPress Dashboard -> ‘Tools’ -> ‘Forums’ -> ‘Repair Forums’ ) It helps. But only until next reply in this thread. After new reply link is broken again.

Please tell me how to fix it. Cannot solve this problem for whole month!

[stratman82]

I found that my bbpress forum had been spammed with about 3000 posts so I edited the forum and deleted it from the admin menu, but now my entire website is unavailable:

The page you are looking for is temporarily unavailable.
Please try again later.

Any help?

Thanks for suggestion, but I have actually already implemented it myself. Basically I took original bbpress methods and modified them slightly to split messages by 50 subscribers.

[Pascal Casier]

Hi @tananaev ,

It took me some time to look around, but maybe https://wordpress.org/plugins/asyncronous-bbpress-subscriptions/ can help you ?
