Thank you very much for your help.
use this code for a bbpress.php file if you already created one. It is basically the full width template already in your theme. .
Getting Started in Modifying the Main bbPress Template
<?php
/**
* The main template file for bbPress.
*
* @package Quark
* @since Quark 1.0
*/
get_header(); ?>
<div id="primary" class="site-content row" role="main">
<div class="col grid_12_of_12">
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'content', 'page' ); ?>
<?php comments_template( '', true ); ?>
<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
<?php endif; // end have_posts() check ?>
</div> <!-- /.col.grid_12_of_12 -->
</div><!-- /#primary.site-content.row -->
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Hello there. Please have a look at our bbPress forum at http://hanfjournal.de/forum/
It’s still in startup phase, the design is okay but as you see, it is now left aligned to the window border, whereas the rest of the page content (the menu, the footer, all non-forum pages) have a empty area at the left edge.
How do I change the forum alignment now?
The theme has these “grids”, now it’s the first grid, and I tried to put the forum to other grids but this way made it worse. So I think I rather make the forum to leave some free space.
Also, the forum is looking very greyish and pale in the page context 🙁
How do you recommend to change the look with simple changes, e.g. drawing a frame around the forum or background colour? I am not experienced in CSS design, but I can apply changes if I know what and where.
I tried themes for BBpress that come as WordPress plugins, but they all did not work (to be precise, were looking ugly) in our theme. Which is “Quark” with many modifications in a child theme.
bbPress does not do this by default. Contact your theme author again if it is indeed your theme doing this.
You can do a quick test to see if it is your theme doing this. Switch to a default theme temporarily to see the default message bbPress has.
I have an idea of what the theme author might have done though. All I can say is for them to copy the default bbPress templates and start fresh and create their own bbPress styles and functionality.
Or I guess you can create a child theme and do the same thing.
If it is another plugin causing this, check that out.
Hi,
I believe this is a common question but I cannot find an answer. In my forum, users can view topics but they cannot see replies. It always display:
Sorry, this forum is for verified users only. Please Login or Register to continue
I want to open my forum and let people see replies without login. I asked the theme owner and they said it should be a bbpress setting. But I cannot find.
Any hint?
@themk850
sorry for the late reply, but try this.
add_filter('bbp_after_list_forums_parse_args', 'ntwb_bbpress_list_forums' );
function ntwb_bbpress_list_forums() {
$args['separator'] = '';
return $args;
}
or I guess instead of using my CSS and the above function just use this instead.
add_filter('bbp_after_list_forums_parse_args', 'ntwb_bbpress_list_forums' );
function ntwb_bbpress_list_forums() {
$args['separator'] = '</br>';
return $args;
}
Try this.
add_filter('bbp_after_list_forums_parse_args', 'ntwb_bbpress_list_forums' );
function ntwb_bbpress_list_forums() {
$args['separator'] = '';
return $args;
}
Don’t mess with template files.
You can copy form-forum.php from the bbPress plugin templates into a folder called bbpress in your child theme and remove 'show_none' => __( '(No Parent)', 'bbpress' ), so that they have to choose a parent forum.
Look for this in the file.
<p>
<label for="bbp_forum_parent_id"><?php _e( 'Parent Forum:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
<?php
bbp_dropdown( array(
'select_id' => 'bbp_forum_parent_id',
'show_none' => __( '(No Parent)', 'bbpress' ),
'selected' => bbp_get_form_forum_parent(),
'exclude' => bbp_get_forum_id()
) );
?>
</p>
End up with something like this.
<p>
<label for="bbp_forum_parent_id"><?php _e( 'Parent Forum:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
<?php
bbp_dropdown( array(
'select_id' => 'bbp_forum_parent_id',
'selected' => bbp_get_form_forum_parent(),
'exclude' => bbp_get_forum_id()
) );
?>
</p>
See if this plugin helps/still works.
bbp additional shortcodes
Also Robin’s other plugin might have the same functionality somewhere in it.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
if you are able to get a profile link like say yours here on bbpress.org
https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/klmnweb/
For topics and replies you would add /replies or /topics at the end of the url. Basically you make the url use the same url that the profile links on the users profile use.
I am just saying the auto suggest topics plugin’s script might make it into core if it was in forum search and extend that, then it could also be use for the new topic title too. It is just the way I see it.
1. oembed in bbPress basically uses that same filter, but for each of the topics and replies content. The filter is just wrapped in a conditional if you did enable oembeds in bbPress.
Here is the code for replies that is in the bbPress core.
function bbp_reply_content_autoembed() {
global $wp_embed;
if ( bbp_use_autoembed() && is_a( $wp_embed, 'WP_Embed' ) ) {
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_content', array( $wp_embed, 'autoembed' ), 2 );
}
}
Maybe removing the shortcode helps, but I will keep an eye on that.
I do not think the description needs that much of a drastic change. Because it might matter more to know the last who posted, when was the last post, how many users are in the topic, and how many posts, and also this information is pretty handy for regular forum users to know about. Plus bbpress has a way to see pending/spam replies in a topic by clicking the hidden posts link in the description.
There needs to be information that tells google that this is a forum, and not a blog post for example.
Published date is almost always going to get picked up by google.
There might be other areas to add schematic microdata like what is listed in this.
http://schema.org/DiscussionForumPosting
The data might also be best to place around the actual post.
Since I don’t want you to remove all the notices with CSS that have the bbp-template-notice class. Copy the form-topic.php and form-reply.php templates into a folder called bbpress in your child theme and look for something like this code below, then remove it.
<?php if ( current_user_can( 'unfiltered_html' ) ) : ?>
<div class="bbp-template-notice">
<p><?php _e( 'Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML content.', 'bbpress' ); ?></p>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

For having a forum show up instead of the (No Forum), copy form-topic.php in your child theme.
In the code toward line 109 you would see something like this.
<?php if ( !bbp_is_single_forum() ) : ?>
<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_form_forum' ); ?>
<p>
<label for="bbp_forum_id"><?php _e( 'Forum:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
<?php
bbp_dropdown( array(
'show_none' => __( '(No Forum)', 'bbpress' ),
'selected' => bbp_get_form_topic_forum()
) );
?>
</p>
<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_form_forum' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
Remove 'show_none' => __( '(No Forum)', 'bbpress' ), so it would look like this.
<?php if ( !bbp_is_single_forum() ) : ?>
<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_form_forum' ); ?>
<p>
<label for="bbp_forum_id"><?php _e( 'Forum:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
<?php
bbp_dropdown( array(
'selected' => bbp_get_form_topic_forum()
) );
?>
</p>
<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_form_forum' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

The default forum shown is whatever is first in the forum index page. It either is sorted by publish date first or the forum ordered first if you manually changed the forum order by editing the forum.
Any other updates on this? I have a forum on “Podcasters’ Society,” and the emails from bbPress turn that apostrophe into a catastrophe.
Oddly, it’s only emails from bbPress that do this. Other site emails are fine.
Try some troubleshooting if you haven’t already.
Troubleshooting
Try a default theme activated with only bbPress activated to see if the problem persists.
Also ask a couple of these questions.
Do you have a multisite installation?
Is WordPress installed in a sub-folder?
What is the url you get when you try to logout?
What areas did you try to logout from? The WordPress Toolbar, bbPress login widget, something else?
Did this issue occur when you immediately activated bbPress? Or did the issue occur after a certain upgrade?
Did you have any cache plugins activated? Have you tried flushing the cache? If it is deactivated reactivate the plugin and flush the cache.
Anything that can cache activated on your site, server cache, cloudflare, object cache, opcode caching?
What hosting provider do you have?
ok found it, it’s caused by the GD bbPress Attachments plugin I’m using. sorry and thanks!
I tried and it’s definitely not another app. It doesn’t take me to a 404 page, it just will not allow me to login. Says I do not have permission.
Only happens when bbpress is deactivated.
Hello,
When bbPress is activate on my website, I can login without problem but then I can’t logout anymore (I have to delete cookies).
I’ve tested on a fresh WordPress install without plugins (except bbPress of course).
WordPress : 4.3
bbPress : 2.5.8
Does this help?? This code appears at 320px but it probably should be by default.
#bbpress-forums div.wp-editor-container {
width: 100%;
overflow: auto;
}
Very interesting… Thanks for thinking of me, robkk!
I also found a snippet that bypassed the feed page altogether, which is working out well. I’m still thinking of dropping Buddypress and just keeping BBPress for the sake of simplicity. It’s turning out to be not quite as useful as I thought (for what I am needing)…
Thanks again!

Replacing blog comments with topic replies is scheduled for 2.7, but you can also use the handy bbPress topics for posts plugin.
You can create custom roles with custom capabilities in bbPress.
Custom Capabilities
There is an API or an example API in the Jetpack plugin.
https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/jetpack/trunk/class.jetpack-bbpress-json-api-compat.php
There have been users trying to make apps with bbPress.
WordPress JSON Rest API bbPress and Android
Also know there has been work to introduce an API into WordPress.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/json-rest-api/
And there already have been plugins in development for compatibility between the WP-REst API and bbPress like this one.
https://github.com/thenbrent/BB-API (Alpha version)
Any contributions for any work toward any type of bbPress Rest API are welcome and much appreciated.
Are installing bbPress on a multisite installation?
subdomain or subdirectory if so?
I can’t find anyone else reporting the same issue after extensive searches.
Yeah your issue is pretty unique.
You haven’t been editing bbPress core plugin files right??
Have you copied the editable bbPress templates to your theme?
You did try a default theme like twenty twelve temporarily to see if it solves the problem?
Did you try disabling all plugins except bbPress, to see if there was a plugin issue?
I am also wondering why your freshness area shows the date instead of 2 months ago, and why your Freshness label is missing.
