The plugin was recently updated to version 1.4 – added more resource links, plugin support etc. — just check it out at:

Thanx, Dave

Sorry, the code lines got broken but if you check the source pages you will see the difference.

Hi, I’m using the bbPress theme for Twenty Eleven by Stephen Carroll. Thank you very much for this work, it works just great. There is only one weird bug I have found (and I’m a bit suspicious of the fact that I couldn’t find anybody complaining about the same): the primary navigation bar won’t work.

If you go to http://espiral.org you can see it working. Just (Qué es espiral, Contribuye, etc).

But then if you go to http://espiral.org/foros only the links to full URLs work, the ones linking to WP pages don’t allow any clicks.

Looking at the source the problem is evident: no href parameter is given.

<li id="menu-item-160" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-160">Por qué espiral

vs

<li id="menu-item-160" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-160">Por qué espiral

How to fix this? Thank you in advance.

Thanks John.

I’m using the Mingle theme which can be seen in action on my site http://www.geekandjock.com

That said, the author has already indicated he won’t be supporting bbPress even though the theme does support BuddyPress. His response was it was a fair amount of additional work for him to also provide theming support for bbPress.

No idea if that statement is true or will still be the case with this additional theming support that’s being released ‘soon’.

– what is the first of it’s kind?

– I’m happy to help where I can but I’m not a coder. Have answered a few forum questions but I think I ask more than I can answer

Thanks.

Trying to set up BBpress

I used the shortcode to create my own forum page at mysite.com/forum

However, once I go into the forum pages and topics it reverts back to the slugs that are in the bbpress settings.

I’m not sure what to do from here as I want to have my own forum page using the shortcode.

I tried to make my own bbpress.php file by copying the contents of my theme page.php file but I don’t really know what I’m doing or what that does..I read it might fix my problem

Help please!

Hello.

I like the design and layout of bbpress.org very much – main page, fonts, forms, etc.

Does anyone know what the theme it is using?

Thanx in advance.

Hello,

I am using bbpress 2.0.2 plugin on the latest version of wordpress.

Is it possible to add in custom fields, to add in postcodes for example, into the registration process for users of the forum?

I have looked through previous threads and feel they are all too old to answer this question for the new bbpress plugin.

Many thanks for your time and help with this.

Hi Spence,

Thanks very much for your post. The video really helped. I still have one question though which is about the part where you modify the forums to default to full width.

1. What CSS editor are you using?

2. I installed a CSS editor plugin and when I insert the code you used I am getting the message

“Your active theme does not include bbPress template files. Your forums are using the default styling included with bbPress.”

How can I fix this so it does what I want?

[tourdecartes]

And here is the display of one forum: http://www.tourdecartes.com/forums/forum/autre2

It says “13 topics” but only 3 shows and no sidebar or footer…

Any help would great!

Thanks a lot

Manu

Hi –

I have the same problem. I have a page called: Forum — with the short code [bbp-forum-index] – it works fine.

If I click to a particular forum there is the ‘tree’ of links —

sitehome page-> forum -> specific forum currently being viewed.

If I click on the forum link at this level, I get a junk page without any information at: URL/forums

forums (with the “s”) – which is the same as the slug in the forum set-up.

I created a new page with as forums (with the “s”) … and added the short code there — when viewed it looks fine, but when linked as above — I get the same junk.

I even tried to redirect forums to forum — no luck.

Can anyone help?

BTW– this is using most recent version of WP — as a multisite.

????

[solsikkehaven]

load_text_domain is used in bbPress instead of load_plugin_textdomain – codestyling localization plugin reports….some filter and actions won’t be executed anymore…. “please contact the author”

Done.

[LabSecrets]

They are essentially the same, as the bbPress plugin is installed via buddypress upon demand.

We’ve done a little tutorial video to show how you can setup either a BuddyPress Group Forum, a SiteWide bbPress 2.0 Forum, or a custom hybrid forum page using shortcodes. You can have all three at one time. Hope this helps

hi,

please how can i add a new loop template ?

---

explication :

---

in :

<?php if ( bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>

<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘bbpress/loop’, ‘topics’ ); ?>

<?php else : ?>

it load the template : loop-topics.php

exemple i need to do a copie of this template : loop-topics2.php

i will use :

<?php if ( bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>

<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘bbpress/loop’, ‘topics2’ ); ?>

<?php else : ?>

but i do not work !

[thetalltree]

I was able to display website address in the profile by adding the following code to the ‘user-details’ file: (located under ‘bbpress > bbp-themes > bbpress > user-details.php’)

<?php echo bbp_get_displayed_user_field( 'user_url' ); ?>

But I am not able to do the same to display a user’s yahoo messenger, gtalk and AIM handles.

Also is there a way to display a user’s facebook page?

[Grabinark]

I’ve recently added the elegant and hugely popular (2 million+ downloads) Lockerz Share button (links to Facebook, Twitter, etc.) to my WordPress site and it’s doing a splendid job on pages and posts, but sadly it’s mucking up my bbPress forum page something horrible, with the button appearing underneath the name of each forum and double-spacing everything in the process. I built the page using the forum-index shortcode.

Having a share button in this location (or rather having multiple buttons, one per forum name) makes little sense as few people will want to share the name of a forum, so I’d like to remove it.

The Lockerz readme file tells one that to remove a button from individual posts and pages: “Insert the following tag into the page or post (HTML tab) that you do not want the button to appear in: <!--nosharesave-->“

I’ve tried adding that tag (without the quotes) to the top of my forum page using the HTML editor, but it don’t work (the share buttons still appear under each forum name), so my question is: Can someone tell me the bbPress page or file name to which this tag should be added?

I realize this is a bbPress support forum and not one for Lockerz, but on the off-chance another bbPress user has come across the same problem I thought I’d ask (I would have started with a Lockerz forum, but there doesn’t seem to be one).

If I can’t solve this problem I’m going to have to ditch the Lockerz share button and replace it with something that works better with bbPress — suggestions welcome.

Here’s the button I’m using: http://share.lockerz.com/ .

The code by Martin_C fixed this for me! Great help.

Hi there,

I really need a forum plugin that will work in a WP multisite environment. bbPress is one of the few that I’ve tried that works, but my Theme is not compatible.

I also need a forum that if one ‘attaches’ a post that includes a featured image, that that image appears in the forum. bbPress seems to do that.

I’m using Atahualpa from BFA which I like because there is a very good interface to customize it with many many options.

I do not have the programming skills to do a lot of changes or writing of code from scratch, but I can certainly follow clear directions.

It’s really too bad that there doesn’t seem to be a bbPress interface for changing the look … Currently it’s using the default, which divides the presentation page 50% for user info; 50% for content…. Not really work’en.

Is there a plug-in that will give me a CSS menu to edit or a way to modify the template without being a programmer?

I would also like to be able to ‘turn-off’ the bbPress profile, since I would prefer that folks simply use the WP profile and not have to do stuff over again.

Can you help??

I can give you access to: masterclasses.icp.edu if it would help.

Thanks…

[dudd, médecine blog]

yes it happen on the title tag on the header source code

<title>Topic: This is a new topic</title>

<title>Forum: This is a new forum</title>

[John James Jacoby]

So, the functions that actually output the feeds are hooked in. Rather than hack the core, you could write a small plugin that unhooks the core feed, and hooks your custom code instead. The feed functions are at the bottom of the bbp-includes/bbp-*-functions.php files. Copy and paste those into your plugin, change the text as needed, and do the above, and you’re set.

[Rodrigo]

I was afraid of that

Isn’t there a place/file where I could replace the string “translatable” direct on the code?

Even if I need to do this every time plugin updates itself, I guess it’s easier than install and generate a new translating file…

[]’s!

[John James Jacoby]

Happens to the best of us.

Hi.

I have installed bbPress on my WordPress and I’m trying to personalize it.

I have already personalized the forum page (where list of topics appear) by editing file wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/bbpress/loop-single-topic.php and it worked well.

However, I can’t personalize the topic detail’s page. I thing the entry point here is wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/single_topic.php so I added some html code in there but it doesn’t appear (even on the html code that navigator gets) when clicking on a title on the topic.

I’m stuck. Can anyone give me a clue ?

Thank you.

[drsim]

can i use the reply short code in the place of wordpress comment ? i am running bbpress as plugin.

thanks

[Baichi]

Is it possible to find out where certain shortcode is in the actual bbpress code? In particular I”m thinking the code for bbp-topic-index.

The styling must be in the a file somewhere yeah? So why not have some sort of file map or layout so people could get in and play with it a little at their own peril?
