They work fine.

there is some CSS hiding your content though. i just changed clear:none to clear:left

if you find any other style awkwardness tell me and i could fix it pretty quick.

add this anywhere you can add custom css

#bbpress-forums #bbp-user-wrapper ul.bbp-lead-topic, 
#bbpress-forums #bbp-user-wrapper ul.bbp-topics, 
#bbpress-forums #bbp-user-wrapper ul.bbp-forums, 
#bbpress-forums #bbp-user-wrapper ul.bbp-replies, 
#bbpress-forums #bbp-user-wrapper fieldset.bbp-form {
  clear: left;
}

[knowmoreit]

Any chance of releasing the widget these forums are using on the left? The specific Forum and Topic widgets displaying stats?

I’ve been searching for a couple days so I assume its something custom that bbPress is doing and hasn’t released. Is that correct?

[project_subdomain]

did you create a custom widget?? it might be better if you did for this because then you could output all of the links to the user profile.

unfortunately not, as i’m using a plugin (jquery-vertical-accordion-menu) for the accordion/dropdown menu widget for that menu, which makes it more complicate, i guess. does the
$id_base = 'dc_jqaccordion_widget';
help with this and if where and what else to put in the code for a custom widget that’s using the accordion/dropdown menu as well?

initially hoped that making a redirect via permalink in functions.php or via page template would be the fastest and easiest solution. am i totally wrong with this?
as i’m not familiar with coding, i see a high risk of having set wrong variables all the time. i’m using default bbpress setting with a nicername/username instead of user’s id in the permalink.

I have been pulling my hair out trying to get the sub forums to display inline rather than as list-item but having a complete nightmare.

Forums

I have created a child theme and have added,

#bbpress-forums .bbp-forums-list li {
display: inline !important;
font-size: 11px;
}

Which doesn’t do anything to the layout of the forum. The theme I am using is called Sahifa.

If anyone could help me with this it would be much appreciated. I have been Googling and trying different things for hours now and I am sure this is a common question.

Hi Robkk, no I did not create a bbpress.php, nor did I make any other changes than shown in the other thread – I added some definitions to the css of our theme, to adjust the width problem at forums list and at topic (content) display.

I guess, now I could either fix also the width of the editor area individually and hopefully then I’m done (but how?), or try to find the cause of the problem between bbPress and our theme.

Which is a mod of the free “Quark” theme https://wordpress.org/themes/quark/ …

Yup, same issue here with 2.5.7 and widgets. I downgraded back to 2.5.6 and all was well again. 2.5.7 causes a PHP out of memory exception whenever a not logged in user calls a bbpress widget.

[richkraetsch]

I’m having a very strange issue where when updating to bbpress 2.5.7 the widgets on my right sidebar are only visible to users who are logged in.

If I disable the bbpress plugin, viola, people can see all the widgets again.

How do I fix this issue?

[Robkk]

i think i replied to some of your earlier posts but just in case.

[Robkk]

this plugin might help.

[Robkk]

i say look how this plugin is developed and see if you could learn a thing about adding what you want to yours.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/asyncronous-bbpress-subscriptions/

[Robkk]

combining the replies/topics/forums section i can see something good about , i think ive seen a plugin customize the look to look like this way actually.

the items at the top i dont agree with you , if you want something like that use this instead.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-admin-bar-addition/

if you can put some images of the layout you would like to see.

[Robkk]

since your other pages with the sidebar look fine and adjust well.

only thing i can think is maybe you created a bbpress.php and removed some divs that were essential for the sidebar??

since your theme is free i will download it and check it out.

[Robkk]

well a good idea would be to have a tinymce button that pops up a modal when clicked and shows an upload button to add images and then you would accept the uploaded pictures and post it in the content with an anchor tag wrapped image. but we do not have anything like that.

for now you can use this plugin to upload pictures

https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-bbpress-attachments/

and oembed would automactically embed any links to images from imugur and flickr.

you could also use the img button to show an image from external sources too.

@vinzen

you can create a new widget based off of the default recent topics widget and customize it to your liking. or you can edit this

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-advanced-recent-topics-widget/

and add the topic tag thing you want.

s2member will allow creating a paid membership bbpress site and restrict access to specific forums by user role (membership level)

https://wordpress.org/plugins/s2member/

paid membership pro works with bbpress as well, requires (free) optional add-on plugins to restrict forums per member levels and/or per user role

I tested this plugin: FriendlyCase

And unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be compatible with bbPress.

Hi,

I am currently converting over a fairly large Xenforo forum to bbPress.
Something like 14,000 users – 41,000 topics – 250,000 replies.

I managed to move everything over without much effort or problem; let it run overnight..

The problem I’m having is running repair.

I managed to run ALL repair functions (one at a time) except:
[Recalculate the position of each reply]

Is this really required? I’m 6 hours into my 3rd attempt.
I keep having to adjust this or that, increase this or that, and raise Execution time, etc.
Even got a white screen a few times which I assumed was a timeout.

My server has virtually unlimited resources. It has 64gb of memory and 12 cores I believe. It is divided up into two seperate VMs. 8GB Ram for the database server and the remaining for the web server. Only using SSD drives. Only 4 wordpress sites running on server.

I’ve read that some imports don’t require the [Recalculate the position of each reply] to be run but I don’t know if Xenforo imports require it.

Really appreciate some insight.
Thanks,
Tim Ehrenkaufer – Tomorrows Retail, LLC.

Hello!

I tried adding the BBpress login shortcode ([bbp-login]) to my “My Account” page, but it does not appear. Is there something I’m missing?

Thanks!

Hello,

I’d like to find a way to have all users on the forums be able to upload images and have them embedded in a post. I’ve tried both solutions below and Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab only links the image and inserting the code from the second link doesn’t work.

bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab
Add media upload button to bbpress

Any new insight on achieving this? The media button would be perfect for what I’m looking for.

Thanks!

Hey there,

I’ve read several threads as well as the getting started documentation, and I’m still totally confused about private forums.

I’m about to teach an online class via my website, and I’ve created a discussion forum for students who have registered for the class.

How do I allow ONLY those who have registered for my class to access the forum?

Do I need a special plugin other than BBpress?

Thanks so much!
Sharon

“Change forum width and row widths in archive list”

[w-sky]

Hi there, this is a follow-up to my post because as it turned out, those were not the main problem. (The post display was too wide, similar to the problem below; and the translated german titles of the message count rows were wrapped to a second line, whereas the shorter english titles would have worked. Both were fixed individually by css.)

Now I am still having this problem with at the compose area. See below. This is an animated GIF to show the effect when some text is entered.

This looks like exactly the solution I need to display sub-sub forums on my forum index page. Unfortunately I tried it and got a blank screen. Does anyone know if this patch is still valid for the most recent version of bbPress?
Also-it looks like the file to be edited is outside the “Templates” folder:
plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/template.php
Is it possible to modify the templates.php file and put it in my child theme to protect it from future updates?
This guide only refers to files in the template folder.

Thanks.

Edit: scratch the first question-I got it to work I had just pasted the code incorrectly. Still need to know if it’s possible to put this modified file into a theme folder.

Hi there – for some reason when I view my forum list page, it is showing the date the last topic was created, not the last reply in that topic.

However, when I click on that forum, in the topic list it shows the correct time and date of the last reply.

Is this normal?

bbpress: 2.5.6
