you can add a modal login which looks prettier than the wp-admin
viz
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
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???
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
ok, thanks.
No I don’t think that is possible with bbPress.
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
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 );

}
add_filter( 'bbp_before_has_forums_parse_args', 'bbp_increase-forum-per-page' );
I posted about this issue that I had a couple of weeks ago without any resolution. So I thought I would start at the beginning. I installed a fresh copy of WordPress (3.8.1) with the default themes on a newly created directory. Second I installed BBpress (2.5.3) and kept all the default settings. Upon completion I added the BBpress login widget and tested the login function. When I do this it hangs up on /wp-login.php page with nothing but a single period on the page.
Is anyone else having this same issue? I need help!!!!
‘I’m using the newest bbPress plugin as well as the updated version of WP 3.8.1. My site is novasev.com. You can see this issue by navigating to the Requests under Rainmeter forum and then the forum under NovaSev.com Administration.’
sorry couldn’t follow this as I can’t see how to get to the rainmeter forum from the menu.
Can you post two specific links and more detail on what is different in each
Hello!
Im pretty new on bbPress, this is my first proyect, Im working locally using the theme simplecorp 2.1.5 and I added the bbPress 2.5 version, and I have a problem
I could installed and create the forum main page succesfully, I add a few forums, and from the main page I visualize them okey. But when I click on any forum the page goes totally blank.
Can you help me?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Diego
There is no real easy way to do this in bbPress 1.x and that is what you are using.
The latest version of bbPress is bbPress v2.5.3 that is a plugin for WordPress.
You should just delete the entire database and install WordPress then bbPress.
https://wordpress.org/download/ https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/
If you want to enable the Visual Editor you should use the code from the codex:
Enable Visual Editor
function bbp_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
$args['tinymce'] = true;
return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor' );
Also make sure you have no other plugins causing a conflict.
It is a theme issue… Though I expect you knew that was coming 😉
You might be able to find some more info for ‘other’ bbPress Atahualpa issues via:
http://forum.bytesforall.com/search.php?searchid=749383
With all that said, I was terrified looking at this theme, it seems that it doesn’t use WordPress Template Hierarchy and overrides/creates it’s own templates and far too many options for my liking.
Create a new file named bbpress.php in your theme folder \wp-content\themes\atahualpa
Add the following code to the bbpress.php file and you should be good to go:
<?php
/**
* bbPress wrapper template.
*/
get_header(); ?>
<?php while( have_posts() ): the_post(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
bbPress uses WordPress’s user profiles code, so any new fields you add to the dashboard profile (with a plugin or otherwise) should be mirrored in the theme. If you need an easy GUI to create profile fields, try BuddyPress.
There are a bunch of examples on how to do this with WordPress. Follow those instructions and you should be fine.
https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
To get the required numerical ID for $forum_id, $topic_id, $reply_id and $tag_id you will need to visit your /wp-admin/ section and either by editing the post or by hovering your mouse over the applicable forum/topic/reply/tag post type you will see a numeric ID for that post eg. /wp-admin/post.php?post=47
Ok… I think I follow now, take a look at the following thread, it is a good example of customizing the bbPress templates to have the forum layout like a phpBB or vBulletin format.
I have created a bbPress starter theme with a phpBB look and feel
So I’m having a few issues here trying to customize stuff – specifically the font sizes through out the bbPress pages.
I’ve been using EM as a standard and it’s always worked well. I’ll give you a very specific example.
I’m trying to change .bbp-topic-permalink font size, but every time I get it the right size it’s bigger or smaller on another page. So the permalink on one forum subject will be small – I’ll increase it to the desired size and then on another forum it’s huge….not seeing how this happens but it’s happening to a lot of items and it’s horridly frustrating.
I’m using the newest bbPress plugin as well as the updated version of WP 3.8.1. My site is novasev.com. You can see this issue by navigating to the Requests under Rainmeter forum and then the forum under NovaSev.com Administration.
Hello, I’m having some tests in a site named ffffind.com
Now the only problem is, it looks like someone has breached into my wordpress account and posted 20K+ posts and topics inside the bbpress extension.
ffffind.com/forum/ is where the problem is at.
I am running the latest WP release as well as the latest BBpress release.
How do i delete all of the posts in one hit and renew all of the bbpress content?
No, bbpress looks for the following files in this order for its page template
plugin-bbpress.php
bbpress.php
forums.php
forum.php
generic.php
page.php
single.php
index.php
so as long as you have a bbpress.php it will look no further
Is there a way to filter search results for non-logged-on users of the website so their results don’t display the contents of private forums which then go to a redirect loop when we try to follow the links?
An example from our testing site:
http://www.resourcescentreonline.co.uk/tim_play/?s=fisticuffs
The search results don’t include topics that have individually been made ‘private’ but I can’t find a way to set this to default for topics within a private forum – I can batch edit them afterwards but it would be good if, failing a solution to the search problem, this could happen automatically.
We’re running WordPress 3.8.1 and BBPress 2.5.3 (as part of a Commons In A Box setup) on an entirely custom theme.
If there’s any more information I need to provide, please let me know – thank you.
edit: glaring typo
Yeah I did. It’s been so long though I’m trying to remember what I had to do. I know that I ended up not using the BBPress login widget and instead went with the “WP Login Box” widget. I had to do some configuring on the settings I think but was able to set the whole thing up to where users were only able to login to their BBPress account and not have backdoor access to the wordpress site itself.
I think it had something to do with wordpress making an update where they screwed up default cookie configurations. I went looking in my wp-config file and found that I put this there. Truth is I can’t remember if this was for the same problem or something else, it’s been a while since I was last working in wordpress. Try putting this in your wp-config.php file after your last set of “defines” near the top. Hope that helps.
