There are some details on what and why different status’ are reported depending on if the result is due to “Comment Moderation” or “Comment Blacklist” here:

Moderation and BlackListing

Depending on time, improved support for this may land in bbPress 2.6.

I’ve figured it out the problem now, the URL is removing the space from in between the first name and surname so instead of being:

http://MYURL.co.uk/forums/users/Stephen%20Wright/

Its becoming:

http://MYURL.co.uk/forums/users/StephenWright/

Im not sure how to fix it though, ive had a look at the function its calling in the loop-single-forum.php file & it seems to be:

<?php bbp_author_link( array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_forum_last_active_id(), 'size' => 14 ) ); ?>

Sktrader, thanks for posting your site. I had a coder set everything up for me a few months ago and I remember the BBPress register/login area looked really naff. Maybe he wasnt such a good coder? We decided to use User Pro, but I didnt like it in the end. We had a User Pro PM plugin and I just remember having so many problems with everything, I took it down in the end and members joined my closed FB group. Am going to look into this more. Not sure what happened with mine but yours looks professional and smart. Thanks a bunch for this.

ok, you are using the oxygen theme as well?

@watstyl08 never came back and said that the code worked, and is now using a three column forum, so don’t know.

Ok, I’d go back to the original fix, that is copy the oxygen full width template as @watstyl08 did in their very first post, and then take out the three lines as I suggested.

Once you have done that, come back, and I’ll look at your website.

Hi all

I have bbPress installed and everything is working fine.

I would like to use wordpress’s moderation tools.

This post states that bbPress uses the same moderation tools as WordPress.

Moderation and BlackListing

I have entered test words in the moderation text box:

Dashboard > Settings > Discussion > Comment Moderation

If I use these words in a post nothing happens and the post is added to the forum.

I’m logged in as admin and the words are used in the post not comments.

Does the user effect the moderation?

Is the moderation only on comments?

[Robin W]

@robkk – yes just saw the other thread. Let us know what the resultant code looks like 🙂

Hey,
I am having the same problems with my oxygen theme as mentioned above!!
I created a forum page with shortcode and choosed there the fullwith template.
This works great:
http://www.curlyhorse.info/forum

• I’ve copied my “page-template-fullwidth.php”
• renamed it as “bbpress.php”
• installed bbPress WP Tweaks
• tried the code for the bbpress.php of Robin W (above)

But the whole forum doesn’t work now anymore with the new code, if you click on a forumpage like “dies-und-das”

Can anyone help??
Thanks a lot!!!!

I have noticed a new problem on the forum, astronomertalk.com,

you need to join to see it, but I changed the submit button,

using this code:

#bbpress-forums .submit {
background-color: #000073;
color: #FFFFFF;
float: center;
vertical-align: middle;
border-radius: 2px;
height: 35px;
width: 80px;
font-size: 18px;
}

but it also influenced the update profile button which now looks screwed up…

You need to join to see it, but it looks bad.

Does anyone know a fix.

Thank You,
JB

turns out there is this theme that has this function working

check out https://wordpress.org/themes/wp-knowledge-base

put it on a test site and see that i has what i need in that theme

now all i need is to scrape that code out and i think wrap it in an if user is logged in function and thats it

after that this topic should be done.

[Robkk]

<a href="http://yoursitename.com/new-topic/">New Topic</a>

this should work after you have done everything in

New Topic Button at top of topic, and Topic Creation on Separate Page

[MarximusMG]

Thank you, but what would the actual line of code that should be entered there look like? Again, I apologize for the basic question, and I truly appreciate your help! 🙂

[Robkk]

.content, #right-sidebar {
padding-top: 0 !important;
}

this should do it , you shouldnt make everything at the top super cozy though.

[Robkk]

Now i am think what the point of having this forum because Mostly Webmaster talks about code and customization and i have limited knowledge regarding that. i think i should abort this forum.

sorry about that,

but how did you get the actions button on each post if you didnt know much about code?
like how did you get a quote link in there??

[MarximusMG]

Thank you SO much robkk.

At the risk of sounding like a complete newbie (which I definitely am), I’m getting stuck at placing the link in loop-forums.php. What would that line of code look like, using the sample New Topic URL?

[Robkk]

for sidebar, also replace that .content code with 5px padding top with this

.content, #right-sidebar {
padding-top: 0 !important;
}

and

#right-sidebar {
float: right;
width: 28%;
padding: 0 0% 0%;
}

[sktrader]

I whole idea of having this forum is having a common place where admin of bbpress forum can chit chat about managing the forum. i appreciate that you guys have provide genuine feedback. Now i am think what the point of having this forum because Mostly Webmaster talks about code and customization and i have limited knowledge regarding that. i think i should abort this forum.

[Robkk]

@cybarmitzvah

well you shouldnt use that code.

especially this

#post-entry article.post-single .post-content {
font-size: 1.25em;
margin-top: -85px;
padding-top: 0px;
line-height: 2.00em;
}

because if you go to your about page, there is text colliding with each other
and never go negative.

[Robkk]

it should have but i mean there is space created by different objects.

try this

#post-entry article.post-single .post-content {
font-size: 1.25em;
margin-top: 0px;
padding-top: 0px;
line-height: 1.4875em;
}

if you want to lose more space try this

.container-wrap, footer .ftop {
float: left;
margin: 0;
padding: 0 2% 0 2%;
width: 96%;
background-color: white;
}

after that there isnt any more you can delete.

[Robkk]

I will say there is a bit of a gap now, between the forum, and the title of site/description, would you know how to make that smaller?

try this, but if you see some weird looking css throughout the rest of your site in that area remove it, Or try to find an alternative.

.content {
padding-top: 5px !important;
}

search forum and topic icons in bbpress search then go from there

[Robkk]

they use , the bbpress shortcode for the new topic form.

[bbp-topic-form] – Display the ‘New Topic’ form where you can choose from a drop down menu the forum that this topic is to be associated with.

more shortcodes https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/

create a page , lets say “new topic”

add that shortcode, and save

place an html link in loop-forums.php

the link should look like

<a href="http://sitename.com/new-topic/">New Topic</a>

style it with css with

a.bbp-new-topic-button {
background:#009375;
color:#fff;
}

[Robkk]

saw your site , and see that you have an actions button on each post

i assume you are doing the same thing as my dropdown list for bbpress admin links, or that you took the code from my topic. I think its a great idea , and more help would be great.

As for your site , right now all i can see is that its doing the same thing as this sites support, but i guess if you can come up with some cool ideas and code or i guess some custom themes you could in the future be for bbpress as buddydev.com is for buddypress if you develop some features for bbpress users.

heres for sent from name

// Change the Mail Sent from NAME
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from_name', 'email_sent_from_name' );

How to make similar bbpress forum to QuicSprout one?

[gold1]

i get that post comment page on firefox, it looks fine in chrome, but my brother tried from his computer and he gets page not found in chrome, works fine in IE and firefox. Can it be a setting in the browser or something? I put the shortcode on my register page in pages -> edit page
