Man I tried to post here ages ago. I can’t believe no one has replied

SoundCloud Shortcode

That’s a plugin for wordpress I use. Will work in the forum.

[nielsvanrenselaar]

It’s not that hard…

                                                                 $post->ID, "links" => array("edit" => bbp_get_reply_edit_link(), "trash" => bbp_get_reply_trash_link() ))); ?>

Have you taken over control of bbpress templates using theme compatibility? If so you can modify yourtheme/bbpress/loop-forums.php and remove the list item:

li class=”bbp-forum-freshness”

Next from yourtheme/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php remove the same section and its contents:

li class=”bbp-forum-freshness

Finally you’ll have to adjust the CSS of your forums to compensate the width of the remaining forum columns for the missing freshness. Hope this helps.

EDIT: sorry, I tried to post the exact code blocks to remove, but the forum here isn’t letting me embed the code 🙁

Having the same issue in a footer widget as well as the sidebar. BBPress is overriding the footer 1 and primary widgets on the /forum/. I’ve made the page forum full width via a custom CSS file to make it disappear in the sidebar as a short term solution, but can’t seem to find the issue in the code.

See, http://www.divorcingmatters.com/forums/

This would be better:

add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_forum_description', 'ja_return_blank' );

add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_topic_description', 'ja_return_blank' );

function ja_return_blank() {

    return '';

}

I want the option for it to go to a page of my choosing. People often don’t like the default forums-archive page (which ends up being the root/home page), so they create a WordPress page with bbPress shortcodes in it to be the forums’ home page. The problem is, when they do that, the breadcrumbs root link, which says “forums”, doesn’t go to that page. it goes to the archive page, or forums-index– which is the page they were trying to avoid.

This really should be put into the original code. Great tip.

Hello,i’m french 😐 (sorry)

I use a WordPress 3.4 and a buddypress 1.5.6. With it a bbpress 2.1.2.My WP theme is Frisco for buddypressmy bbpress theme is BBpress default because I can’t select another one.

My bug is on a “members/username/forums/“My sidebar is running out.all over pages are ok.

How I can resolve it?

I used a http://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/ but how I can select it in the adminpanel.

Thank’s a lot.

Franck

[bryanforst]

ok, never mind. The above code works, just the redirect needed some value, thought that blank would redirect to the home page….

[Stephen Edgar]

Yes, you can just ceate a page and add the shortcode to the page.

Here are some docs to help get you going

When you create the ‘forum you can assign the following permissions to each forum:

Public – Anyone can see these forums
Private – Only logged in registered users can see these forums
Hidden: Only Moderators/Admins can see these forums

Hi….

I am using the HTML5 Reset Blank theme, and I am designing the theme from scratch. The question I have is this, is bbPress a Theme, or is it just a Forum Page…. Sorry if I am confusing you.

I guess what I am asking is this, can I just create a Page in my Blog called forum, add the Forum to that page using the short code?

Thank you….

[joethephish]

One more attempt to get the code to paste: (I guess it won’t work, oh well. It’s fairly standard.)

get_header(); ?&gt;                        <!-- ?php comments_template( '', true ); ? -->                 <!-- .left-column -->                 <!-- .right-column -->            <!-- #content -->

[joethephish]

Hey,

My company’s website uses a custom wordpress theme, and we’ve been adding bbpress compatibility to it directly (rather than using a child theme). We’ve been working on a staging server initially, before installing the updated theme on the main site.

We got everything working very nicely on the staging server, but the main one seems to have problems. Here’s an example:

• A sample user page: http://www.inklestudios.com/forums/users/joethephish – It seems to be using some data internally from the blog. The article id is “post-561” which actually corresponds to this blog post: http://www.inklestudios.com/archives/561
• The fact that it’s been treated as a blog post means that it’s been structured and styled slightly differently too, and is getting related classes to the tags from the blog post.

I’m very confused, because supposedly there’s no difference in setup between the staging server and the live one.

I have a single top level template file for the forums: forum.php, which looks like this:

    get_header(); ?&gt;                        <!-- ?php comments_template( '', true ); ? -->                 <!-- .left-column -->                 <!-- .right-column -->            <!-- #content -->

[thoughtbludgeon]

I would like to avoid all of the typical wordpress “backend” stuff for my users. For example, when a user registers, he just gets redirected back to whatever page he was at beforehand – there is no notification page or “success” page, just a redirect – how are my users to know they should check their email? How can I create a page that simply says “thank you for registering, please check your email for your username and password” after they register?

I would like to avoid getting redirected to the default “/wp-login.php” and instead use the bbpress login page I created. I would also like to use the bbpress registration page I made (using the shortcode and template) instead of “/wp-login.php?action=register”. Is this possible?

I would like to keep users on the front end of the site.

I created a page for forgotten passwords – after a user fills out the form, they are simply redirected – no notification of what just happened, no message that says “Your password is being email to you”, how can I go about making this more user friendly? If someone uses incorrect login detail, they simply get redirected to “/wp-login.php”, I would like them to stay on the “front end” of the site (I have a login page there after all).

Why does everything redirect in some way or another to “/wp-login.php”? How can I integrate this fully into the site without always jumping to a wordpress page?

Second issue, I seem to be having a problem with some of the other page, if I try to view members or a single member I get a 404. When going to “/index.php/forums/users/”. Any idea why these pages do not work?

Here is my domain: http://www.tbgamers.com

Thanks, I’d appreciate any help.

Hey all,

I have a website that users log into and would like to sign in/register the user when the go to the bbpress forum. The site is NOT a wordpress site.

I have read several posts on this topic:http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integrating-with-external-authentication-system/

being the most recent but none of them seem to work. I can successfully log in or create a new user. They show up as logged in on the home page. However when they click any link bbpress does not recognize them as the current user and the login form is displayed again.

We are using bbpress 2.0 db version 2471.

Here is the code I have been inserting either in a file of its own (linking to that file from my system with login parameters passed) or in the header.php file of my businesslike template:

-new_user( compact( ‘user_login’, ‘user_email’, ‘user_url’, ‘user_nicename’, ‘user_status’, ‘user_pass’, ‘display_name’ ) ); if ( is_wp_error($user) ) { echo ” got an error “.$user->get_error_code(); } $user = bb_login( $_GET[‘login’], $_GET[‘password’],1 ); }

$user = bb_set_current_user( $user->ID );

}?>

[MediaSVI]

Nope I just had to make a New Page, named it Forum and then put short code [bbp-forum-index] .

Still not sure if this plugin is going to work for me, I am not that happy with the way it is arranged, it is a bit hard to understand how to see the different forums as they are just text and no color bars to differentiate them. Plus I need to have “Youtube” & “Picture” embed buttons to make it easy for people to share.

[nickritchey]

I disabled all of the plugins and thought it was W3 Total Cache at first, but then I ended up with other errors.

I disabled all caching and it was still broken. I addressed each problem individually, and after a few hours of trying different things, I changed

memory_limit = 62M      ;

to

memory_limit = 128M      ;

in php.ini in my root folder and re-enabled the W3 Total Caching. That seemed to fix the problem.

Resolved!

Thanks for your help!

bbpress.org/forums/ editor messed up my child sidebar.php code in my previous post. My child sidebar.php code is pasted on http://codetidy.com/3282/

Dear Netweb and all other helpful folks,

I looked in my Child theme’s folder and I have three files in there.

1. footer.php
2. sidebar.php
3. style.css

When I temporarily renamed my Child’s sidebar.php to sidebar.phpTEMPCHANGE, I was able to see the bbpress sidebar.

I remember now why I created a Child sidebar.php file, and it is because I did not want any sidebar to show up when a website visitor uses the search feature. See https://wordpress.org/support/topic/archives-and-meta-widgets-show-up-on-search-results-pages for my post and people’s suggestions.

My child’s sidebar.php contains this:

    &lt;!-- https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/1383cda0f1903ca0                     'monthly' ) ); ?&gt;                                                                                                                --&gt;    <!-- #secondary .widget-area -->

What can I do to both:

A. Keep the “Login” and “Meta” from showing up in the nonforum pages

AND

B. Make the bbpress sidebar appear?

Thank you!enter code here

You will need to copy the templates into a subdirectory of your theme

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

[tbguitars]

I’m trying to get bbpress to let me use a regular page on my site for the main forums page which I want to populate using the bbpress shortcodes. This is not hard to do, but the issue I’m stuck on is that once you go into the forums the breadcrumbs will only link back to the page with the “Forums” (or whatever you change it to in the settings)slug, and that page works like an archive page and wont let me write anything on it or use shortcodes etc.

I’ve wasted many hours already trying to figure this out, any help would be so much appreciated.

Thanks!

using latest updates of wordpress and bbpress

[Stephen Edgar]

Take a look in form-reply.php/form-topic.php/form-forum.php templates.

If your going to edit any of these I suggest you copy them to your theme folder so you don’t edit the core files and will not lose any custumizations you get bbPress updates.
