Afternoon,
I am looking to create a new template with an entirely new look and feel from what the basic / generic bbpress forums look like. Templates are not my issue but more along the lines of displaying the right content via 3 block rows.
I am looking for a starting point (at least) to achieve the following index layout – 3 block rows (using bootstrap):
FORUM NAME
Topics | Posts | Freshness
List of Sub Forums
FORUM NAME
Topics | Posts | Freshness
List of Sub Forums
FORUM NAME
Topics | Posts | Freshness
List of Sub Forums
Note: These will be in a 3-col format, not full width. Any help would be helpful! You can see a visual here: http://postimg.org/image/894k4fp47/
Loading seems to work fine.
For submitting I remember having helped somebody else with that, it was a plugin that blocked for sending out the emails. What bbPress or email related plugins do you have ?
Pascal.
@robin-w,
I feel like I am hitting a brick wall. I have tried to reach out to the theme author (Karma) and can’t get anywhere. Since our theme was purchased many years ago via persons that aren’t currently involved I don’t have the purchase info. I think in fact it was a development company that later turned it over to my company. Anyhow, in trying to get access to a Karma forum via Themeforest/envatomarket it tells me I can’t set up a technical support/request account because I am not a customer (I guess because my email address doesn’t match something). I know this is not a bbPress issue, but just a synopsis of where I am. I am stuck!
My forum is pretty well buttoned up and ready to launch EXCEPT with this new topic issue. I apologize for asking this here but I can’t see a PM option on this site, but is it appropriate of me to ask if you can offer support for a fee if you think you can help me resolve this with a little coding?
? I am open for suggestions…I just hate to have gotten to this point and be hung on this issue right at the end.
Thanks in advance!
@casiepa – yeah I’ve ran the plugin and completely reset all user roles to default install settings.
The bbPress role doesn’t show up as a selectable role to assign the user, it just appears at the very bottom of their profile in the backend. Just like in the pic the original poster published.
I have no idea where it is being pulled in from. I’ll do a search in my DB and report back.
Yup I have literally copied all the code from ‘loop-topics.php’ in custom theme to the wordpress theme twenty fifteen, where it correctly does return true and topics are shown correctly.
I must have done something wrong in my custom theme, I just have no idea what the possible causes could be tho.
It just came to my mind that it might be template php file that bbpress uses, I’ll go check that now.
I use bbpress in combination with buddypress maybe it can be something with that also.
thank you sir,
below link helped me to solve this issue,
editing the look of closed topics
Hi, to test what boolean came out I tested bbp_has_topics() in: custom_theme/bbpress/loop-topics.php.
In my custom theme it returns false and in wp twenty fifteen theme it returns true. Maybe using buddypress has something to do with it?
ok, so
AS A TEST ONLY –
Plugins
Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
Thank you.
I checked both points. I received the test email successfully. So it is bbpress.
lots of things !
Start with
1. You should be aware that many spam filters strip messages that do not come from the correct address. So if your site is mysite.com and your email address in wordpress settings>general is fred@gmail.com then it is likely that messages will be dumped in transit. You need to set up email to come from your site eg fred@mysite.com, your hosting provider can help if needed.
2. Just bbpress?
Then you need to see if this is wordpress wide or just bbpress.
Try https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/
Then come back
Then unfortunately I’m out of options, sorry.
I suppose you tried already their forum ?
And did you try to deactivate all other plugins except bbPress and your calendar ? Just to be sure it’s not something in another plugin ?
Pascal.

Ok I’ve done some testing.
bbpress uses the display_name as stored in wp_user table.
If you allow registration
ie – Dashboard>settings>membership – anyone can register
then yes, the user_nicename and the display_name in wp_user table are the same and the same as the username entered by the person registering.
If you don’t allow registration, and you add users manually
ie Dashboard>users>add new user
and you don’t enter the first and last name, then the user_nicename and display_name are the same
BUT if you enter the firstname and lastname, then the nice_name is the username, but the display_name is saved as firstname followed by lastname !
So a bit of inconsistency by WordPress.
Now display_name is all that we can play with in bbpress, and users can change their display_name under bbpress in the profile area.
So I plan to put a function in my style pack that will let the user choose what the default display_name is, and optionally disable users from creating a nickname and/or changing the default.
Hello,
When i create topic for buddypress group forum and add topic “What’s up..”, it’s show “what\’s”.
How can i remove it?
Wordpress: 4.4.2
Buddypress:2.4.3
Bbpress : 2.5.8
Thanks
I just installed the latest version (2.5.8) on bbPress on a WordPress site where The Event Calendar plugins (vers. 4.0.7) was installed. After that, I wasn’t able to add or modify an event. I disabled bbPress, and then The Event Calendar works well as before.
Does anayone khow about this problem ? I would like to keep using The Event Calendar but also start using bbPress.
Thank you for your help!

Hi,
Give us at least some time to eat 🙂
I think there is something inside the ‘bbp style pack’ plugin.
If not, have you checked https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-unread-posts/ ? It has not been updated recently, but it might still work.
Pascal.
ok, I can now see the issue, and have looked at both a forum page and a non forum page.
From the web browser tools available to me, I can’t immediately see what the core issue is.
as an experiment can you try on of the other bbpress shortcodes eg `[bbp-topic-index]
`
to see if this is bbpress or just that shortcode
Hi,
Is your site public ? Can you publish a link ?
This could be a theme or plugin issue, so try to switch to a standard WordPress theme and check again. If the issue is still there, deactivate all plugins except bbPress and reactivate them one by one to find the culprit.
Pascal.
Hi,
That seems to be a WordPress question, not a bbPress specific one. Please try the WordPress forum where you might have more luck.
Pascal.
Hi,
Just check the plugins and proposals in this thread : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-to-add-view-whos-online-and-view-statistics/
I’m sure you will find something.

Hi,
If I remember well, IP addresses can only be seen by moderators and keymasters.
Check this thread to see if it helps: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-to-remove-ip-addresses-from-bbpress/
Pascal.
Exist a plugin that it show the users on-line or shortcode?
