The image shows “The Pub”, “Introductions & Farewells”, and “Suggestions & Ideas”. These are all part of the category “General Discussion”. What I want to do is remove the part that is crossed out in red in the image as it is unnecessary.
Any help would be appreciated. I have been tinkering at “loop-forums.php” for a while now with no success. pastebin
My site has access blocked to guests so if you want a temp account just say so and I will pm you info. I am using WordPress 3.8.3 and bbpress 2.5.3.
So I have been running bbpress for the past month now. Today I had some free time and decided to try and make it look more appealing. So I searched for wordpress bbpress plugins and suffusion bbpress pack come up. I installed, activated, and went to its settings. So in the settings was the following:
(RE)BUILD BBPRESS FILES
If you are starting out afresh with bbPress on Suffusion or Suffusion on bbPress, this is the first thing you should do. Since the default bbPress HTML markup is different from Suffusion’s markup, this step will help (re)create your templates. You should be using a child theme of Suffusion before you start using this theme. Otherwise if you update Suffusion from the WP themes repository you will lose all the bbPress-specific files.
Please note that all your template files will be written to /home4/kingdox1/public_html/demigodlegion/wp-content/themes/arcade-basic.
So I clicked “rebuild bbpress files” and looked at the forum to see the changes. Once I looked at the forum I noticed that all it did was expand the forum layout horizontally and removed the (right) sidebar. I need the sidebar so removed the suffusion bbpress pack plug in and now there is no forum whatsoever. If I re install the suffusion plugin, the forum reappears.
I tried doing a full restore through my hosting company to no avail. If there is a way that I could backup all of the topics and forums. Re install bbpress, then import topics and forums…. unless there is an easier way.
Hey guys i installed bbpress now and want to display something in the header of my page. If the user isnt logged in i want to display “Register | Login”. If he is there should just displayed: “Hello, Username”. Does someone hava a solution? I think my php skills are enough for this but i dont know the variables or functions. I watched in the documentation but there a just a few functions displayed? Or did i watched on a false page?
after moving a post from one forum category to another, i noticed the category did not update in the main forum listing, only within the forum post itself.
also, when i tried deleting the forum post, it still shows up in the main forum listing even though the category itself is now empty
as you can see in the forum main listing, the post still shows up and in the original category (OCD) instead of the new category (הפרעות אכילה) even though it has been deleted:

wordpress v3.9

Why hello there… I can now reproduce the issue 🙂
I have the cause of the issue identified and a patch 100% complete that prevents this from occurring in the future. 🙂
The cause is one of our repair tools “Count replies in each forum” 🙁
Immediate Workaround: Run the “Count replies in each topic” repair tool and DO NOT run the “Count replies in each forum” repair tool, it deletes data needed to calculate new replies displayed order.
NOTE: This will only prevent the issue from re-occurring, it will NOT fix existing replies affected.
We still need to create a repair tool to update existing replies that are affected by this issue. I have a rough outline of the tool though it isn’t quite right yet as it is not picking up all the possible permutations and combinations of how replies can be ordered with or without ‘threaded replies’ enabled.
It’s 1:15am here my local time and I’m beat thus I’m pulling the pin for the evening. 😉
Thanks for your all of your patience along the way, sorry it wasn’t sooner but until we could reproduce the issue coming up with a fix is really hard 😉
If you want further technical details you can look at ticket #2586 in trac.
Once I’ve had some Zzzzz’s I’ll update this post.
have you been through the step by step guides in
Codex
basically you’d need to cut some code to display the date/time, put it in a function that echo’s it, and then hook it to the following action
add_action (‘bbp_theme_before_reply_content’, ‘your_function’) ;
see
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – part 4
sorry am up to my armpits in other code, or I’d cut it for you !
damned… this is not a solution for wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/replies/template.php …
So you have to edit 2 files:
1) wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/template.php
2) wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/replies/template.php
normally it should work, i have tested and it’s working fine for me… maybe the newer version should be adapted with these new functions?
Do the same thing for:
edit function: bbp-reply-edit-link
in the file: wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/replies/template.php
on line 1922
// Get uri
// $uri = bbp_get_reply_edit_url( $r['id'] );
$uri = ( '?edit=1' );
I have found a solution for this problem:
edit function: bbp_get_topic_edit_url
in the file: wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/template.php
search for: // Get uri (normal on line: 2507)
set $uri = bbp_get_topic_edit_url( $r[‘id’] );
as text like this: // $uri = bbp_get_topic_edit_url( $r[‘id’] );
then put this after: $uri = ( ‘?edit=1’ );
so you get this:
// Get uri
// $uri = bbp_get_topic_edit_url( $r[‘id’] );
$uri = ( ‘?edit=1’ );
save the php file and upload and overwrite the file on your site.
Hi,
I am using the latest WordPress (Twenty Fourteen theme) and bbPress.
There is a problem with my forums root page. Besides the regular forum listing section, all forums are also listed like posts below the regular section.
How can I fix it? Thanks
Hi Robin,
thanks for the reply.
I did try to create a bbpress.php with full-width template pasted into it. But it is not exactly what I had in mind. Content is not centered, and there are still post-like forum listings.
Like now: http://leopolds.com/discussions/
The only thing changed was the removal of the sidebar. Is it possible the problem is with the Twenty Fourteen theme and its page templates?
Please help.
which parts of the plugin do you want to re-write?
You will always be prompted for bbpress updates, so no code you write will be lost by mistake.
If it is templates that you want to alter, then copy only the ones you alter to
wp-content/your-theme/bbpress
see
https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum-part-3/ section 3
of it’s functions, then you should change these using filters see
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – part 5
The site is back up today and I tested it out. It did not work the way you wrote the code.
.forum-archive DIV.sidebar.right, .bbpress .single-forum DIV.sidebar.right, .bbpress .single-topic DIV.sidebar.right {
display: none !important;
}
should be
.forum-archive DIV.sidebar.right, .bbpress.single-forum DIV.sidebar.right, .bbpress.single-topic DIV.sidebar.right {
display: none !important;
}
Just taking out the spaces between bbpress and single worked. The syntax was incorrect.
One other stupid question…at the bottom of the main page, which I guess now is called the archive page, there is the “read more” tag. How do I get rid of that? Doesn’t that have to do with the loop?
find your themes full width page template and then follow the instructions below to get bbpress to use it
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1
Great – look forward to seeing it !
please be patient, all the responders on here are volunteers and are not dedicated to this site.
It doesn’t go in your theme or child theme folder.
You should upload the bbpress plugin, which will then place the bbpress files in your wp-content/plugins folder. Whiolst you can do that yourself, let wordpress and the plugin do their work
so Dashboard>plugins>add new plugin and search for bbpress, then load it and activate
Do the same with buddypress
on your 2 questions
1. yes there are plugins that allow an upload – for instance https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-bbpress-attachments/
2. Just disable that part dashboard>settings>forums> look for forum root slug, and you’ll see a tick box to disable it.
I’d start by reviewing the layout and functionality
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
the look at

to get some widgets in your sidebars
then

to get some styling.
Hi folks,
The forums on my site don’t stand out. They typeface, borders and just general appearance is dull, it’s not bold enough.
Is there perhaps a plugin that would smarten up the appearance of forums?
I can’t find one or another solution.
My forums are here: http://www.whichinvestmenttrust.com/better-investor-forums
I’m using the latest version of everything WordPress/BBPress/Buddypress.
Thanks
Hey guys, I’ve just submitted a plugin to the WordPress repository that should cover the basic functionality you’re after. Here’s the description:
== Description ==
bbPress Go To First Unread Post is a literally named plugin that allows registered users to jump to the first Reply in a Topic that they haven’t viewed yet. This gives your bbPress forum the simple and expected functionality of non-WordPress counterparts like phpBB, without a lot of coding.
First, you activate the plugin on a blog that already has the bbPress plugin enabled. This is all you need to do to activate the basic functionality of the plugin, which includes:
* Automatic tracking of last reply viewed, per topic per user.
* Link next to the title of a topic if the user has unread posts (between the title and pagination)
The plugin also includes two template tags for extra functionality:
* Mark Topics as Read link
* Mark Forum as Read link
I’ll post again here with a link when it’s been approved!

@foxden-vixen try adding a comma and:
.bbpress .single-forum DIV.sidebar.right, .bbpress .single-topic DIV.sidebar.right
after where you already have in the css:
.forum-archive DIV.sidebar.right
so it says:
.forum-archive DIV.sidebar.right, .bbpress .single-forum DIV.sidebar.right, .bbpress .single-topic DIV.sidebar.right {
display: none !important;
}
Hi!
Been tinkering with bpress and i love the integration with buddypresss. However, theres a few things a can´t wrap my head around.
Om my forums indexpage i would like subforum to have descriptions, an avatar and show the last poster. For a forum this seems to be the standard. However, for bbpress this seems like a hard thing to do. Have been googling around, and i can accomplish most of this things if i go inside forums, but i can have this on the indexsite?
Any tips to solve any of those questions would be lovely.

Jerry
