WP + bbpress. Cannot display topic as the title of the page. http://pastebin.com/VGRGMtTA theme header.
Hello,
WP version : 3.6.1
bbpress : 2.4
Please, is there someone to clarify these :
I want to have a “new topic button” on top of each forum. I found some info here, I created a page with shortcode [bbp-topic-form].
And now ?
How can I have this link on the top of my forum ?
I’m not a develloper.
Thank you
I haven’t tested this myself but there are a few themes out there that support WordPress, bbPress, BuddyPress & WooCommerce so I would think that a few people have this up and running pretty much out of the box.
Your main issue I would start looking into would be managing your users and user profiles.
A seriously quick search for ‘WordPress & bbPress’ revealed this:
http://docs.woothemes.com/document/product-support/
I also saw watched this stream from WordCamp SF 2013 and it looks quite cool.
The features as you mention @sadr share some similar goals I agree. Some people say why run a forum at all these days, why not just a blog with comments and a good theme. I think the same approach should probably apply here for O2 also. What does O2 do for you that a WP blog or bbP forum does not and will it fit my needs better than the current solutions available.
I would also love to see these same features you mention available either in bbPress or as plugins, sadly my coding skills just aren’t there to contribute such awesomeness. 😉
That all said if O2 is a plugin for available in the WordPress plugins directory I would hope O2 has support for custom post types then why would it not work with bbPress? (hack, hack, hack, see slide 62 “Template compatibility is hard”)
And I’ll leave with this:
Getting bbPress working there would be a very different project from what we’re doing with o2.

Hi there
I am importing a phpBB forum of 1180 posts / 179 topics. My browser has been displaying this now for over 11 hours:
Do I just sit and wait? Can I navigate away from this page? Or do I need to leave the browser as is?
Thanks
Jon
In a short answer no, bbPress uses the ‘forum’, ‘topic’ and ‘reply’ slugs (or your alternate via bbPress settings) to tell WordPress that the content is from a custom post type ‘Forum’, ‘Topic’ or ‘Reply’.
Sure is possible 🙂
Take a read of this to help you on your way https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/
Make a category (forum) called ‘Fruits’ and then make your sub forums ‘Apples’, ‘Oranges’ etc
Make another category (forum) called ‘Vegetables’ and sub forums ‘Potatoe’, ‘Carrots’ etc
Create a WordPress page for each of your categories ‘Fruits’ and ‘Vegetables’
Use the [bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id] bbPress shortcode on each of these pages with the forum_id of each category.
I don’t think things have progressed much further than what you have found thus far. The best place to keep track of this would be to subscribe to the bbPress Trac ticket #2191.
You should upgrade your bbPress v1.02 to bbPress v1.2 and then import into bbPress v2.x.
Legacy
Which version are you using? Make sure you are using the latest (and correct) version.
There are now three versions of the Kunena importer:
- Kunena1.php for Kunena v1.x
- Kunena2.php for Kunena v2.x
- Kunena3.php for Kunena v3.x
Forum Section
- Added Forum Display Order using
wbb1_1_board.sortOrder
- Added wbb1_1_board.boardType and callback method
callback_forum_type where category =1 & forum = 0
- wbb1_1_board.isClosed & callback method
callback_forum_status where closed =1 & open = 0
- (Are the above values correct for these DB fields? I have guessed these ;))
Topic Section
- Changed callback method for Topic Language from
callback_topic_reply_count to callback_topic_language
- Added topic author ip
- Your SQL join for the topic content looks good
Reply Section
- Fixed ‘Reply parent forum id’ (we need the ‘parent forum’ here not the first ‘post id’, the inline docs were not very clear here)
- Removed ‘Reply Unregistered Author name’ (See #2347for more info)
User Section
- Added ‘User Signature’
wcf1_user.signature
Generally cleaned up the code and inline docs to match the other importers.

Hi, I’m thinking of a website entirely implemented in wordpress that has a section in which the user can identify and from there you can access different pages and also to an online store WooCommerce. If the user would not have to buy anything to be re-identified.
All this I can integrate bbpress?, I need some additional plugin?
Thank you!
Xavier.
Hi Guys
I know WordPress to a reasonable level but am completely new to forum building and BBPress. I am hoping my question has a simple answer and is probably me missing something very simple.
I have set up the forum for a charity I am working with, its installed fine and we have some test topics up and running. No problems.
The installation provides me with a forum address of http://mydomain.com/forums/forum/forum-name which is fine.
All I want to do is basically add some notes/welcome message and an image just above where the forum starts but I dont seem to be able to do it. When I go into my form and add in text or an image, in the same way you would add to a page/post then save it, nothing appears?
Any ideas at all how I can achieve this? Should this be happening in the way that it is?
Many thanks!
Justin
Hi I am not denying search engines nor changed the site address yet I don’t have notifications when the user is mentioned in the forums with @username
It’s working in the Activity stream though.
Anyone else have similar problems?
Buddypress 1.8.1, bbPress 2.4 and WordPress 3.6.1
@Allen Hi, your database name and also your DB username have to be dnadjser_dbname and dnadjser_usrname
Cheers.
ok I will try that. but just to make sure this is how the layout is for the phpmyadmin
before all databases (dnadjser)
then the database name _smp3
I just want to make sure I put the right thing where it needs to be.
Solved it! Changed it to the latest jQuery version (1.10.2) and now it works like a charm!
Ok, I have partly found the problem!
I’m relying on Google’s jQuery-packs since these load much faster. I’m having the following code in my functions.php file:
// Load jQuery
if ( !is_admin() ) {
wp_deregister_script('jquery');
wp_register_script('jquery', ("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"), false);
wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}
When removing this line, it suddenly works. The problem is that I would like to keep using Googles libraries…
Any suggestions?

Hi!
I’m using pretty permalinks on my WordPress site and has been working hard with the SEO on the site.
One thing I can’t seem to solve, although I have been googling and searched this forum for days now, is how to get rid of the /topic/ and /forum/ parts of the permalinks when using bbPress.
Is it even possible?
The ideal setup for me, that would also reflect how the rest of my site is set up, would be something like this:
mysite.com/forums/name-of-the-forum-topic/name-of-the-thread
Is this possible to accomplish?
Thanks a lot for a great plugin!
// Jens.
Hello!
I just started building my own Forum and so far it’s working great, except for some minor problems.
One of them is that the frontend editor, with the buttons for making text bold, italic etc doesn’t show up when replying to something. It works great when creating a new topic, but not when answering.
Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
Thanks!
// Jens.
I went to clan.wolflan.com and your source code looks like some paragraphs were added by your editor as I see some <p> and </p> in weird places. What software did you use to edit loop-single-forum.php or your functions.php ?
I was not able to check because some of your forums are private, but what’s the html source code for the list of subforums ? (I mean in the browser) Is there a <br /> between the list of subforums ? Because, when I watch your screenshot, subforums are not separated by a comma, so I guess the function did his job, but your code may be broken because you used WordPress editor or an other editor that deleted the <br />.
Anyway, in your case, the simplest solution may be using some CSS. And as you said, simple stuff first ! You wouldn’t need to change any php template. You may try something like that in your style.css or Custom CSS if you use Jetpack :
#bbpress-forums .bbp-forums-list li {
display: block;
}
If it works, I don’t know what was the problem with the bbp_list_forums() function, but you will not need to use it and you can delete the custom loop-single-forum.php that you copied to your theme’s directory if you had not made other edits.
Hi there
The theme itself doesn’t supply any bbpress templates, so I copied loop-single-forum.php from the bbpress default theme and created a theme/bbpress folder and dropped it in there.
http://pastebin.com/dARzjbvb
There is no loop-forums.php file in there at the moment.
Many thanks
