if you want to get rid of the breadcrumb use
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
what else do you want to achieve?
I’m trying to get rid of and change the layout of the: bbp-template-notice info and bbp-breadcrumb, in the topics index. So Home>Forums>Test Topic. I’m having trouble figuring out if there is a bug, or I’m missing something, or I just have the template hierarchy wrong.
How I believe the template hierarchy works: archive-topics.php>content-archive-topics.php>loop-topics.php>loop-single-topics.php
I figure the changes I would need to make would be in archive-topics.php or content-archive-topics.php, but when I delete the <?php bbp_breadcrumb(); ?> as a test it’s still there.
When I make changes to loop-topics.php and loop-single-topics.php, it works fine. It’s just those two page templates.
I’ve tried editing the bbpress.php file from:
<?php /* Start loop */ ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<article <?php post_class() ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<header>
<h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
</header>
<div class="entry-content">
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div>
</article>
<?php endwhile; // End the loop ?>
and swapping the content for <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘content’, ‘archive-topic’ ); ?>. That worked but it messed with my forums index.
I’ve taken a look in the codex to try and figure out what I’m doing wrong and feel lost.
tep-by-Step Guide to Creating a Custom bbPress Theme
Getting Started in Modifying the Main bbPress Template
Sorry if this is a bother, but I’m completely stumped as to what’s going on
Not sure why you only want editing in the backend. Indeed I’m not sure why you want anyone to have access to the backend at all, apart from admins !
However presuming that you actually just want no-one to change their profiles
You will need to modify
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-details.php
make a copy of this file, and put in in a directory called bbpress within your theme, so you end up with
wp-content/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/user-details.php
The take out lines 63-69
<li class="<?php if ( bbp_is_single_user_edit() ) :?>current<?php endif; ?>">
<span class="bbp-user-edit-link">
<a href="<?php bbp_user_profile_edit_url(); ?>" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( "Edit %s's Profile", 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_displayed_user_field( 'display_name' ) ); ?>"><?php _e( 'Edit', 'bbpress' ); ?></a>
</span>
</li>
<?php endif; ?>
This will stop any front end editing
I’ve just recut my topics shortcode to allow you to do just that
bbp additional shortcodes
Team bbPress,
I have a multi-site install with BuddyPress (http://thirdscribe.com), and we use bbPress to power the BP forums. Recently, we’ve been seeing a very specific, and unusual, problem. Whenever a change is made to bbPress — update the plugin, change a setting, etc — the WordPress user roles in wp_options->wp_user_roles are erased. The bbPress roles (keymaster, participant, etc) are preserved, but the WP roles (admin, editor, contributor, etc) are completely gone.
Do you know what is causing this?
Thanks,
Rob
Hi, i installed your theme and really like it, but somethings are a litlle messy, reply lines are divided in half, and some other small things.
The theme is inside my child-theme, and i don´t know why any modifications to the bbpress.css don´t take effect, do you know why?
Hi all,
I’ve noticed that when I view my profile via bbPress, the image from my last blog post is displayed. I’d like that eliminated, if possible. I’ve rifled through the coding and can’t seem to pick it out.
The second: Under bio: We want users to use that area to ‘Share’ their personal story, but it doesn’t allow much in the way of paragraph breaks. Is that doable?
Thanks!
Hi there
I’m not too sure if I’m in the right place to ask/mention this, but I live in hope 🙂
I am working on a site at work and we’re using BBPress for a forum. So firstly, ty very much for making BBPress so intuitive to extend and customise on a theme level! 🙂
Secondly, I may be doing this wrong but when I enable multi threaded replies and use the bbp_list_replies() function to list the replies I noticed that it doesn’t seem to use the custom walker I pass to it. So I thought that maybe there could be a conditional in said function using $r[‘walker’] or defaulting to BBP_Walker_Reply?..
Or I could be totally confused? 8)
Thanks for the great work,
[WP ver3.9.2; BBP ver2.5.4]
I found it! But not a fix for the problem.
The offending plugin is bbPress Menu Bar Addition.
I created a vanilla site and fortunately this was the 4th plugin I tried so I am very certain this is the one.
Unfortunately removing the plugin does not fix the problem, as I suspected. Presumably it makes a configuration change and does not change it back when being deactivated.
I’ve dropped the developer a line to see if he is willing to try to fix this problem.
Your first question you can easily do with a WordPress page and link to it and any other FAQ’s you may want to have on your site.
To extend your profiles you will need a plugin, search the plugin repo’s for either a plugin compatible with bbPress or check out BuddyPress our sister project that includes this functionality out of the box.
Twitter/Facebook sharing is also plugin territory
Your 3 sections, just make 3 forums or 3 categories each with a forum.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/ https://wordpress.org/plugins/
Other than that take a look at some of the sites people are linking to here or check out some of the example sites https://bbpress.org/about/examples/ and some of bbPress’ docs https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/ https://codex.bbpress.org/
It sounds like everything is working fine…
bbPress includes a redirect to the home screen after logging in whereas WordPress takes you typically to the WordPress dashboard.
The primary reason for this is because we don’t want your sites users being redirected to the WordPress Dashboard.
I just split this topic, bumping a two year old topic is of no help to the previous posters and 9 times out of 10 won’t be helpful for yourself either 😉
I’m not exactly sure what you are after or you have already fixed it as your forums look ok.
To answer the specific question though, make a copy of your themes page.php file and rename it to bbpress.php, though as stated I’m not sure you need this.
All I can suggest is you look to find someone who can help you out with some custom CSS and the like, we try to make bbPress work ‘out of the box’ with the thousands of themes available and if you need it to look different you need to makes these changes yourself or find someone who can or pay someone.
We can give a few tips when we can see the forums but as we can’t even see them we can’t offer even anything basic for you sorry.
I have the same problem. I installed bbpress on another blog, to see if there were any problems with plugins.
I installed the same theme, which is Genesis, I installed one by one all the plugins to detect if it was because of this that the error was produced, but in the second forum all publications are instantaneous, while in the first take several minutes to appear.
I hope you find a solution, but I have noticed that I am not the only one having the same problem.
My blog is my forum with this: http://compraraccionesdebolsa.com/foro-de-bolsa/
Sorry if there are any misspelled words, but I am using Google Translate.
The primary problem from what I see is you have different font size/color for the bbPress signature plugin you are using.
Hi,
I would like to integrate a forum in a wordpress page, and obviously I was thinking about bbpress, but I have major worries about themes moderation. Before installing, I have 4 specific questions regarding this:
May I include a button to denounce a commentary –bad language, publicity, whatsoever-? I think it is a key issue for developing a forum and the harmony between members.
May I include a profile of the user –company, linkedin profile, etc.- in the registration form?
I would like to have 3 sections, with different permissions in each of them –being able to post mainly-. Is it possible?
May I insert a twitter/facebook sharing button in each post?
If this is not possible do you know if I can do anything to solve these issues?
Thanks in advance
This is because your theme appears to be inserting bbPress within a page that lists the ‘author’.
You may need to make a copy of your page.php and rename bbpress.php and remove anything ‘extra’ that may be being inserted there.
bbPress does not include “groups”, I think your referring to BuddyPress, head on over to their site to work out what’s going on https://buddypress.org
Hi.
I have been partly successful in changing the mobile layout of the bbpress. I have managed to make avatars smaller in the mobile layout and also more aligned to the left, as well as the author name and author role. However, I can’t seem to find the correct code to make the content of the reply (bbp-reply-content?) more to the left or to make the space smaller between the author info and the text.
Surely there must be a very simple solution to this?
Thanks!
I don’t know of any plugin that does this for bbPress, you could try searching for a WordPress plugin that does this for comments then contact the author to see if they could add support for bbPress.

I recently switched to the Graphene theme (which I must say is quite awesome!!!), mainly because I wanted something that I could integrate a forum into without creating a separate site or subdomain. Plus this was the only theme that looked great right out of the box.
With that said, if this is a bbPress issue and not a theme issue, I will certainly seek help in a different location. I am horrible with code but with simple instruction, I could navigate my way around it.
I uploaded the bbPress plugin, created a page, and promptly began placing the shortcode in the widget areas for loggin in and registering. The default log-in was already filled out for me and I clicked the ‘Log-In’ button and when I refreshed my screen it took me to the home page. I reopened my WP log-in screen and when I logged in, it took me to my home screen again, not my WP admin panel. Am I doing something wrong? I want to be able to integrate everything in this theme without having to leave and log-in to an entirely different site. Please help.
Thanks
bbPress should work fine using the ‘default’ settings including the default slugs:
The shortcode should be [bbp-forum-index] (You used bbb and not bbp)
The Japanese translations for forum and forums are the same, these should be different based on how the Japanese language uses plurals in this context as if they are the same this will cause a problem for bbPress, I had to use フォーラ so it was different from フォーラム 😉
Here it all is working for me, my domain is http://en-au2.wp.nw/build, yours would be http://careerkokusai.com/ and everything is using ‘native’ Japanese for the permalinks 🙂

Simply it is not us here at bbPress (or BuddyPress) that would write the code to add support for that software to use with our software, it is up to them if they want to add support or not.
As I don’t own a Mac, yet, I think this is the issue in that your MAMP setup is using port 8888:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-2-3-now-available/page/3/#post-133305
The only difference between XAMPP and MAMP (free) is that XAMPP uses “localhost” host name, while MAMP (free) uses “localhost:8888″ when using MAMP ports by default (MAMP pro uses “localhost” that tell why it works OK with you). So I went to MAMP preferences and changed the ports settings to use default Apache and MySQL ports to use “localhost” instead of “localhost:8888″, and finally posting topics and replies is available again 🙂
Even better I setup a virtual hostname manually in MAMP (free) and the everything works fine.
I hope this will help others with the same issue with MAMP (free). Thanks for your time
