Try making a copy of your page.php (or page-no-sidebar.php depending on your preference) simplecorp template file and name it bbpress.php

Also keep an eye on this thread at Site5 http://www.s5themes.com/forums/topic/simplecorp-bbpress-forum/

Robin,

Thanks for the quick answer an taking the time.

I tried adding bbpress.php on the theme folder, but still dont work. Adding the file makes no change

Auto Role
Select the default role for bbPress forum members to be assigned, the roles are Keymaster, Moderator, Participant (Default), Spectator and Blocked. For full details of the permissions assigned by these roles please User Roles and Capabilities.

I haven’t actually used S2Member so I can’t help to much here, but S2 supports bbPress and there should be something about this on the S2 site (I tried a search and mainly get results for our forums here at bbpress.org :/)

If you are importing them ‘manually’ I would say you will have to manually assign the bbPress role, though if this is something S2 does on the fly then I presume it should also be adding the bbPress role at the same time and this would be an S2 issue.

Also to note is that bbPress users don’t actually get the full role assigned to them until they have actually logged into the site.

Another thing, take a look at the following plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/

I wouldn’t add this now whilst things are not working as expected as you will compound your issues but it might be another option available to you if your want a custom visual editor on your forms.

[Stephen Edgar]

I can’t see anything obvious that is wrong….

Your not using the latest jQuery, your using v1.10.2, you should be using v1.11.0

I would double check your code in any functions.php you are using for your theme, make sure you are using bbPress v2.5.3.

I’d also suggest strip out all the JavaScript (stickUp.js etc) and the jQuery bits as @Lynq wrote above and get back to an extremely basic header.php, footer.php and bbpress.php (or index.php, page.php etc) and verify everything is working then add back your JavaScript bits one at a time.

Hello,

How to make adsense ads to display them at the 1 and the 3 post?

I checked the plug http://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-simple-advert-units/

This plugin displays only the first post i want to also display the adsense under 3 post
How to do it?

sorry for my bad english

[Cal23]

I have created a forum through bbpress for an existing website and am experiencing 20-40 second page load times for only the forum pages, the rest of the site works fine. There are no posts yet, there are 14 forums with maybe 2-3 topics per forum. I have tried using caching plugins and programs like benchmark and profiler to determine what is slowing it down, but can’t find anything. I am not really familiar with code, but can do some basic things.

Any ideas on how to speed it up?

Thanks!

[oweniverson]

i have the same question. it seems there are many topics on this but no resolution.

i have a Page (Forums) where i put the text description for the Index List of Forums (“Here are a bunch of Forums!”) followed by the index [bbp-forum-index]. that works fine.

now, if i click a single forum (“Forum 1”) in the index list, i only get the Forum Title, but not the description i entered into the text field when i created the forum. should i be making a Page for each single forum?

i suspect there’s a conflict with a plugin. i deactivated all but bbPress, cleared my browser cache, and force-refreshed the page and still nothing.

FWIW, my plug-ins are:
bbPress
Custom Meta Widget
jonradio Private Site
NextGEN Gallery by Photocrati
Peter’s Login Redirect
TablePress
The Events Calendar
User Avatar

any know issues with these??

[jollyjollyjolly]

So the wordpress site in question is on 3.7.1 and bbpress is 2.5.3

Problem: None of the users on this site “register”. They are all imported via s2membership import function. As such the import overwrites the user role on each import.

All wp users that exist in the system should be able to by default be a participant. Is there an override?

[Robin W]

ok, you could try just using a separate page for bbpress.

Create a file called bbpress.php in your theme folder

Add the following code to the bbpress.php file

<?php
/**
 * bbPress wrapper template.
 */

get_header(); ?>

<?php while( have_posts() ): the_post(); ?>

	<?php the_content(); ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

If you need a sidebar add

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

before the footer line

See whether that works for you.

Hello Stephen,

I added this code in my functions.php file and got two button but the toolbar is still not working:

I have only 2 plug-ins. bbPress and Aqua Verifier. I already deactivated the Aqua Verifier plug-in to see if the plug-in could cause the problem but it doesn’t. I think the problem is my theme I have created for my site but I can’t find an mistake in my code. I would be really glad if you could take a look on my code: http://snippi.com/s/r6mpul7

Hi Karen,
My issue was self-inflicted. I’m using S2 member to restrict access to my forums and I checked one to many boxes in the restrict view config. It wasn’t obvious to me that the restriction would impact specific aspects of a user in bbpress, I was intending an all or nothing approach to user access. It is definitely a frustrating issue to try and resolve. All I can suggest is check any user restrictions you have in user roles as there seems to be something strange happening in accessing specific views of topics and replies. By strange I mean difficult to debug. Still not sure why you should be able to configure it so that a user could not view the topic details but could reply! Good luck and I hope you resolve your issue.

Cheers

Dave

Hey,

Two hopefully small issues I’d appreciate some help to resolve.

1. Screenshot to display issue:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/70814425/BB%20Press/BBPress%20Strange%20Search%20Results.png

In the above screenshot, I searched for Duleek using the bb-press search widget.

As you can see the characters £#039; appears before and after the search term on the results. page. Any idea how to resolve that?

2. Screenshot to display the issue:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/70814425/BB%20Press/BBPress%20Rounded%20Corners%20Issue.png

I am trying to implement a simple border-radius css setting on the BB-Press forums. To achieve that I used:

border-top-left-radius: 10px;
border-top-right-radius: 10px;
background: 92px 50% no-repeat rgba(65, 66, 64, 0.941176);

The issue is that the light grey border (border: 1px solid #eee;) surrounding the entire forums continues to appear in the top left and right corners – That kind of defeats the purpose of the ’rounded corners’ feature.

I can use border:none; and that removes the border from the forums – But I dont want to do that, I only want to remove the border from the top left and top right corners of the forums header… I tried combinations the following and it doesn’t work:

.bbp-header {
border-top: none !important;
border: none !important;
border-left: none !important;
border-right: none !important;
}

Any idea on what to try?

Thanks.

“deactivating all plugins tangentially related to bbpress ”

The plugin conflict has nothing to do with whether the plugin is related to bbpress – any plugin can cause a conflict.

This is because conflicts are often with common variable names such as $user, where one plugin may set it to be x and the other uses it expecting it to be y.

Disable all plugins, and switching to a default theme proves that both wordpress and bbpress are correctly installed (ie not corrupt). From there you can add back themes and plugin to work out which is causing the conflict.

“There are a number of related threads about this issue on the forum but none have any real solutions provided.”

There are tens of thousands of plugins, and thousands of themes, and conflicts will occur with combinations of these. There is not one common problem here, the symptoms are the same but the causes many, so “real” solutions are individual. In the last few weeks solutions for many including a caching plugin and a theme have been posted.

Your problem is individual to you.

Try again with getting to a root cause by disabling all plugins and going to default theme, and come back if you still have a problem, we’ll try to help you to resolve this.

[nerak_d]

I am having this exact same issue, and cannot resolve it. Dave, how did you fix it? I have tried deactivating all plugins tangentially related to bbpress and even switching themes. There are a number of related threads about this issue on the forum but none have any real solutions provided.

Any and all guidance would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
Karen

you can add a modal login which looks prettier than the wp-admin

viz

Layout and functionality – Examples you can use

[Robin W]

Ok, I see you also posted on their support page, which was going to be my next suggestion.

Since your code is on a local server, I obviously can’t take a look.

So now let’s try.

Create a file called bbpress.php in your theme folder

Add the following code to the bbpress.php file

<?php
/**
 * bbPress wrapper template.
 */

get_header(); ?>

<?php while( have_posts() ): the_post(); ?>

	<?php the_content(); ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

If you need a sidebar add

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

before the footer line

See whether that works for you.

Hi Robin!

Thanks a lot for the reply. You are right is a problem with the theme that apparently is not compatible with bbPress, is there a way to fix this???

[Stephen Edgar]

This will be an issue forr GD bbPress attachments.

I suggest you have a read of the existing support topics here and post your own if needed.

Hi Lynqoid!
We love the look of your BBPress theme. It seems many people are installing this different ways though. Some are using filezilla and others their WP theme uploader. The result is that some installs are working out of the box and some are not so could you please answer a few questions for us?
1. We are using the Dynamix Theme with a child theme we created. How exactly would I go about this install? Can you give us the step by step for all of us please? 🙂
2. Am I correct in understanding that this file only “themes” BBPress and not the rest of our theme?
Thanks for all your help.

Hi there,

I have the latest versions of WP, Buddypress, bbPress and rtMedia installed on a test site.
My theme is SocialBuddy.

When I have all 3 plug-ins activated and go to the Buddypress member profile eg. members/admin and press the Media tab which should bring me to the Media area it instead brings me to the bbPress user’s (Admin in this instance) profile page but keeps the pretty url as members/admin and not forums/users/admin/.

When I deactivate the bbPress plugin the Media tab works correctly…with no issue at all.

I’ve been in touch with both the rtMedia and SocialBuddy developers and they are unable to help.

Site is wp.photographyireland.net

Any advice?

Thanks
Mark

[Robin W]

ok, thanks.

No I don’t think that is possible with bbPress.

[Robin W]

tempapte-tags.php was renamed to just template.php

bbpress/includes/forums/template.php

However you should be able to use the following filter in your functions file, just amend the 100 to whatever you want
function bbp_increase-forum-per-page( $args = array() ) {
$args[‘posts_per_page’] = get_option( ‘_bbp_forums_per_page’, 100 );
return $args;
}
add_filter( ‘bbp_before_has_forums_parse_args’, ‘bbp_increase-forum-per-page’ );

“The problem is, there is no template-tags.php”

It was renamed to just template.php

function bbp_increase-forum-per-page( $args = array() ) {
