@dimplefacect
glad you found the information you needed , the links i should have gave you either of these two
this one is cut to the chase
https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/
and this one is more explanatory and has more steps to help improve your forum.
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1
if you need anymore guides for bbPress the codex is a great place to look.
i did it just like you sayed but still no effect đ
maybe some other plugin i have to change the code ?
That code works exactly as described.
please check that you have exited and re-entered your browser to clear
that you aren’t running any caching software
That you have only changed ’40’ to ’80’ and saved and uploaded the change
Thanks @robkk. I think I need more hand-holding. I did go to https://codex.bbpress.org/ and still couldn’t figure the steps to taking the forum I built under the forum tab and moving it onto a page. Any idea on a tutorial for that step?
thx but how can i change the size of it ?
i cant find some code where i can change it
The avatar size is hard coded into the login widget.
see
bbpress/includes/common/widgets.php
around line 141
You can change it directly in here, but keep a note of it, as it will be overwritten by upgrades. or if you have the skill, you could copy and create a new widget within your child theme
if that doesn’t work, then out it in your theme’s style.css, but tag it as !important
#bbpress-forums, #buddypress {
clear: both !important;
margin-bottom: 20px !important;
overflow: hidden !important;
font-size: 12px !important;
padding:20px !important;
background:rgb(10, 9, 9) !important;
}
There is a ticket for a future release.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1989
you can hide them all with CSS
#bbpress-forums .bbp-topic-content ul.bbp-topic-revision-log,
#bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content ul.bbp-topic-revision-log,
#bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content ul.bbp-reply-revision-log {
display: none;
}
if you want to delete the old revisions use a plugin like WP-Sweep
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-sweep/
I am running Bbpress 4.1.1. If you have the revision log turned on, every saved edit will be displayed under the post. I’m a frequent post editor, so I wind up with 10+ logs if I don’t remember to uncheck the box, and there’s no easy way to delete them.
I am looking for a way to make each topic and post only show the latest edit. There should only ever be one edit note per post. Is this possible, via plugin or code or some option I haven’t found yet?
well step by step its pretty much this
copy page.php using FTP or your hosts file manager
rename to bbpress.php using FTP or your hosts file manager
remove unwanted code from bbpress.php using an editor like notepad++ through FTP or your hosts file manager.
TIPS:
make sure that the bbpress.php is in the root of your child theme.
remove unwanted code like comments code , something like this <?php comments_template(); ?>
^^ that is if you want forums on pages.
@findmyrep
follow the getting started guides by following this link.
Codex
use the bbPress shortcodes
https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
[bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id] â Display a single forums topics. eg. [bbp-single-forum id=32]
this plugin will help you out find any posts ID
https://wordpress.org/plugins/reveal-ids-for-wp-admin-25/
go to forums>all forums and you should see the ids
i tryed to change the size of the sindbar login avatar img.
i put in the theme (hueman theme) funcion.php this:
add_filter('sidebar_login_widget_avatar_size','new_login_avatar_size');
function new_login_avatar_size(){
return 80;
}
i also tryed this code:
add_filter('sidebar_login_widget_avatar_size', 80);
but it is still the size of 38 pix and not 80 pix ?
what did i do wrong ?
If your site is public, please put a url/link to an example page. What is to you an obvious written description is frequently not clear to us, and the ability to see is much better. We are also able to fix many display issues by loading your site and seeing what it is sending the browser in the background, so a link rather than a picture is really useful.
If you are setting up, please see the Getting Started section of the codex first.
Getting Started
Please see this page for any frequently asked questions we may already have an answer for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Please also see these pages for help troubleshooting possible issues in bbPress. PLEASE tell us you have done the tests before when posting.
Troubleshooting
ow !
Hopefully the company have restored the database to back beyond your attempts to optimise it?
If so it should have no errors. So if it has, they probably need to go back to an older version if they have one – many hosters don’t.
Is it just forums entries that are missing???
if so you could try
dashboard>tools>forums>repair forums
and when you do get it going again, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don’t do stuff to a live site again.
1. a few hours invested in a test site
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
and you would not have lost your live site, and
2. REGULARLY back your main site (the above tells you how) and you could have just restored that – hosting companies rarely keep much, and an issue found after a week can be fatal !
Do come back for further help if needed.
I was working on optimizing the site using a tutorial from http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/the-ultimate-quickstart-guide-to-speeding-up-your-wordpress-site–wp-23846
When I got to the part on using the plugin “WP-DBmanagerâ, I backed up the database. I then repaired it. When I did the optimize part, that’s when I got the 500 error. I called the hosting company and not sure what they did. Eventually, they did a database restore from a weekly file. The error logs from that restore showed lots of errors. When I finally got the site back, the final result was the topics were there with no forums.
to create a forum go to forums>new forum in the wordpress backend
I donât see how I customize it or set up topics or set up so only certain people can subscribe to it
for certain people to subscribe to it might be custom development post a job at http://jobs.wordpress.net/
Is there a video I can watch on how to start?
there is guides in the bbPress codex , but no videos
Codex
you can search youtube for a tutorial, make sure its at least in the past 2 years, anything older than that might be for the old versions of standalone bbPress.
‘Normal’ users get the message “You cannot create new topics.” when you add echo do_shortcode ('[bbp-topic-form]');
This is a similar topic to this message created almost three years ago, has anyone a solution for the current (latest) version of bbpress and wordpress.
Hello,
@clarasebeste
Thanks for you answer, but as you can see on the screenshot, bbpress has already a breadcrumb.
@robin-w
Thanks for this interessting Plugin. I test it with my Test-WP and identify this code for placing the subscription-toggle in the right:
.subscription-toggle {
float:right;
}
Add this in my childtheme/css/bbpress.css and it works. Thanks.
Found also in the extras a nice looking loop-forums.php for displaying the complete forum đ

Hi,
Im using a bespoke WordPress theme for my site which ive created myself.
Ive fully customized BBpress & put the theme inside my WP theme too.
So far so good, it looks great & works fine too. But one problem is that the Breadcrumbs at the top of my page throughout the website only display:
Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum
If i then go into the GENERAL DISCUSSION SUB FORUM / TOPIC I get the following:
Home / Forum / General Discussion
Instead i should be getting:
Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum / General Discussion
If i then go to click a topic in general discussion I get:
Home / Forum / Hello all forum members, what do you prefer?
instead of
Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum / General Discussion / Hello all forum members, what do you prefer?
The current code I have written in my functions.php for the breadcrumbs is:
<?php
function the_breadcrumb() {
global $post;
$post_type = $post->post_type;
echo '<ul id="breadcrumbs">';
if(get_post_type() == 'forum' OR get_post_type() == 'topic' OR get_post_type() == 'reply') {
echo '<li><a href="';
echo get_option('home');
echo '">';
echo '<i class="ts-awesome-home" style="font-size:14px;letter-spacing: 2px;"></i> Home';
echo '</a></li><li class="separator"> / </li>';
echo '<a href="https://hub.driveworks.co.uk/forums/forum/">Forum</a>';
echo ' / ';
echo the_title();
}
elseif (!is_home()) {
echo '<li><a href="';
echo get_option('home');
echo '">';
echo '<i class="ts-awesome-home" style="font-size:14px;letter-spacing: 2px;"></i> Home';
echo '</a></li><li class="separator"> / </li>';
if (is_category() || is_single()) {
echo '<li>';
the_category(' </li><li class="separator"> / </li><li> ');
if (is_single()) {
echo '</li><li class="separator"> / </li><li>';
the_title();
echo '</li>';
}
}
elseif (is_page()) {
if($post->post_parent){
$anc = get_post_ancestors( $post->ID );
$title = get_the_title();
foreach ( $anc as $ancestor ) {
$output = '<li><a href="'.get_permalink($ancestor).'" title="'.get_the_title($ancestor).'">'.get_the_title($ancestor).'</a></li> <li class="separator">/</li>'.$output;
}
echo $output;
echo '<span title="'.$title.'"> '.$title.'</span>';
} else {
echo '<li><span> '.get_the_title().'</span></li>';
}
}
}
}
?>
Any anyone help with the child navigation of this please?
Thank you
i think this should do it
you would probably need to add more code around it.
<?php bbp_last_topic_reply_permalink ?>
create a bbpress.php from your page.php file or single.php and remove any useless information like comments code.

reply back if you need more help or it doesnt work.
Hello,
I installed a new bbpress 2.5.5 and noticed, that there is no space between the breadcrumb and the subscription-toggle:
How can I add some space? With CSS or in the code? What’s the better way?
Thanks for help in advance!
Gerd
Hello Robkk,
thanks for your reply. At first I thought it was WP Better Emails or MailPoet Newsletter. I deaktivate this plugins, but the same.
Now I used a fresh Testinstallation of WP, installed bbpress and the same. If someone subscribe to forum, I got a Mail delivery failed notice.
I try a little search and found in this file \wp-contetnt\plugins\bbpress\includes\common\functions.php this code:
// Strip tags from text and setup mail data
$topic_title = strip_tags( bbp_get_topic_title( $topic_id ) );
$reply_content = strip_tags( bbp_get_reply_content( $reply_id ) );
$reply_url = bbp_get_reply_url( $reply_id );
$blog_name = wp_specialchars_decode( get_option( ‘blogname’ ), ENT_QUOTES );
$do_not_reply = ‘<noreply@’ . ltrim( get_home_url(), ‘^(http|https)://’ ) . ‘>’;
// For plugins to filter messages per reply/topic/user
$message = sprintf( __( ‘%1$s wrote:
// Strip tags from text and setup mail data
$topic_title = strip_tags( bbp_get_topic_title( $topic_id ) );
$topic_content = strip_tags( bbp_get_topic_content( $topic_id ) );
$topic_url = get_permalink( $topic_id );
$blog_name = wp_specialchars_decode( get_option( ‘blogname’ ), ENT_QUOTES );
$do_not_reply = ‘<noreply@’ . ltrim( get_home_url(), ‘^(http|https)://’ ) . ‘>’;
// For plugins to filter messages per reply/topic/user
$message = sprintf( __( ‘%1$s wrote:
So I think, the email will be generatet of bbpress. How can I prevent this Mail delivery failed notice?
Gerd
It looks like the code, by default, sends the message to “noreply@” followed by the domain, with all the intended recipients in the BCC field. I end up getting 3-6 bounces per message due to the “delayed” notifications. It thought it would go away after someone (else) had subscribed to the topic, but that is simply not the case.
The code needs to be only slightly more sophisticated:
1.) it should NOT send an email if there are no recipients (because… logic)
2.) the “from” address should be “noreply@<domain>” or otherwise configurable
I’ll see if I can work up a patch if I’ve got sufficient free time (unlikely, but I’ll try). Anybody know the who/how/where of it?
