What I want to achieve:

I’ve installed bbPress as a plugin for WordPress. I want to make a few simple changes to the bbPress bread crumb function:

bbp_breadcrumb();

I need the bread crumb separator to be double right arrows rather than the default single arrow:

I want to replace > with ».

I also want to add “You are here:”

Why I need this:

I need to match the styling and position the Yoast Breadcrumbs. Yoast Breadcrumbs is installed as a plugin for WordPress. It breaks on bbPress pages.

What I’ve tried:

Using conditions and CSS, I disabled the Yoast bread crumbs on bbPress pages. I also disabled the default bbPress bread crumbs but called it just beneath my primary navigation. Effectively, I’ve “moved” the bbPress bread crumbs.

To change the bread crumb separator I’ve researched JavaScript and jQuery string replacements but I’ve been advised that this is “hacky”.

My question:

What’s the conventional way of changing the output of bbPress function?

I can provide additional JavaScript, PHP and CSS code if required.

Live demo:

These two live examples highlights the two types of bread crumbs:

Yoast bread crumbs: http://www.directsponsor.org/forums/

bbPress bread crumbs: http://www.directsponsor.org/news/

Couldn’t find the file Im using the default theme that comes along with the plug-in. Do you by any chance know what it is called?

Sorry about the hassle but im kind of noob on coding!

Version 0.1 of my plugin is now available for download on wordpress.org. Find it here if you want to help test it: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-bbcode/

I solved this by removing the sub-forums… I’m sure there’s a way to do this but, the time to think it over led me to simplify the forum

Check top of dark section of bottom of pages..

Example page breadcrumb works normally:

http://kremim.com/urun/cosmed-daily-shampoo-300-ml-2/

Forums have problem:

http://kremim.com/forum/soru-cevap/

I am using wordpress seo plugin with this code for breadcrumbs:

<?php if ( function_exists('yoast_breadcrumb') ) {

yoast_breadcrumb('<div id="breadcrumbs"><p>','</p></div>');

} ?>

We are definitely here. I stated my direct contact info earlier in thread. You have a lot of questions and posts so be easier to address them all at once through a messanger. You are correct about the bbpress 1x and not needing the plugin after convert to convert passwords. That is for all other platforms.

Please contact me directly at:

skype: AWJunkies

AIM: AWJunkies

YAHOO: AWJunkies

Email: aellis@awjunkies.com

The phpbb is not currently complete as the file says I should have it done next week if nobody has tried to do the converter file yet. I also will be adding and editing a few things for speed.

Actually, I need to reopen this.

I can edit the first post of threads, but can’t edit the replies using the edit button on the post.

I have tried to change the permalink structure then back again to reset it but it doesn’t work.

I also posted in this thread:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/editing-topics-and-replies-in-bbpress-20

Which seems to have a possible solution but im nonethewiser as to where the code coes that is mentioned.

[antonchanz]

Well I’ve got bbCode working in my own forums now by creating a mod of the b0ingball bbcode plugin that also supports bbpress. I’ve requested a repository on wordpress for this and will make it available there as soon as my request is approved.

Its just an alpha version so far. It works for my site and historic posts imported from SMF, Vanilla and Phorum versions of my sites forum (I’ve been through a load), but I had to mod the quote and url tags from the b0ingball version because they didn’t work properly for me. Hopefully by fixing them for myself I haven’t broken it for anyone else. I’m prepared to do a little work to get this universal.

Oops, last function (A bit too much cut and pasting):

function tfuey_bbp_user_can_view_forum() {

$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id();

if (tfuey_bbp_is_premium_forum($forum_id)) {

if (is_user_logged_in()) {

if (current_user_can(‘administrator’) || current_user_can(‘bbp_moderator’) || current_user_can(‘whatever’)) {

return true;

} else {

bbp_get_template_part(‘bbpress/feedback’, ‘no-access’);

return false;

} //End if

} else {

bbp_get_template_part(‘bbpress/feedback’, ‘no-access’);

return false;

} //End if

} else {

return true;

} //End if

} //End function

**EDIT: I changed this a bit more. The bbp_get_template_part lines aren’t needed on my theme but are when using twenty ten for some reason (or when I tested at least). If you get two messages saying you don’t have access just remove them i’m not going to figure out why this happened.

I would like it so that visitors see the latest post from 2 of my forums on the default page. Is there some code to allow me to do this?

[OAEErra]

@slithx0r

If using the default theme, where exactly would I add/edit the function ‘bbp_get_topic_edit_link’ with the code:

$uri .= ‘?edit=1’;

in bbp-topic-template.php?

Sorry not the best with php!

[OAEErra]

I found a plugin for “quote” links under posts, but if anyone knows how to add a “New Topic” and “reply” to the top/bottom of the thread page it would be much appreciated

[spigi]

OK, in one things I probably make mistake I try to install bbP 1.0 theme using 2.0 version. bbP 2.0 use WordPress theme, am I right? (sorry for my stupid question but I’m just started with bbPress.)

I install Frisco theme (one of this: https://buddypress.org/extend/themes/)

And I still can’t see “add Topic” button. I try everything, every official theme and nothing

What should I do to have “Add topic” button? Exactly like on this forum

PS. I don’t know why but I’m still have this notice:

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

I use Frisco theme, bbPress 2.0, buddyPress 1.5 and WP 3.2.1:

Try the bbpress-post-topics plugin.

How about using a metabox on your edit forum page to specifiy if the forum is premium:

Add this to your forum functions.php and edit the current_user_can bit at the bottom.

add_action('bbp_forum_metabox', 'tfuey_bbp_support_forum_metabox');

add_action('bbp_forum_attributes_metabox_save', 'tfuey_bbp_support_forum_metabox_save');

add_filter ('bbp_user_can_view_forum', 'tfuey_bbp_user_can_view_forum', 1);

function tfuey_bbp_support_forum_metabox($forum_id) {

if (tfuey_bbp_is_premium_forum($forum_id)) {

$premium_checked = ‘checked’;

} else {

$premium_checked = ”;

} //End if

echo ‘<hr />

<p>

Premium Forum:

<input type=”checkbox” name=”tfuey_bbp_premium_forum” value=”1″ ‘.$premium_checked.’ />

</p>’;

} //End function

function tfuey_bbp_support_forum_metabox_save($forum_id) {

if (isset($_POST) && $_POST != ”) {

update_post_meta($forum_id, ‘_tfuey_bbp_premium_forum’, $_POST);

} else {

update_post_meta($forum_id, ‘_tfuey_bbp_premium_forum’, ”);

} //End if

} //End function

function tfuey_bbp_is_premium_forum($forum_id) {

$tfuey_premium_forum = get_post_meta($forum_id, ‘_tfuey_bbp_premium_forum’, true);

if ($tfuey_premium_forum == 1) {

return true;

} else {

return false;

} //End if

} //End function

function tfuey_bbp_user_can_view_forum() {

$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id();

if (tfuey_bbp_is_premium_forum($forum_id)) {

if (current_user_can(‘administrator’) || current_user_can(‘bbp_moderator’) || current_user_can(‘whatever_you_want’)) {

return true;

} else {

return false;

} //End if

} //End if

} //End function

Leave the forum public and if the premium forum metabox is ticked and the user doesn’t meet the required criteria they will get a “You do not have permission to view this forum” message.

PS. Untested outside my own site plugin and unnecessary bits have been removed but you should get the gist.

PPS. Code doesn’t paste too well here apologies if it looks all over the place.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I’ve released my Search bbPress 2.0, a unified search plugin. It has the following features:

* Unified search extends WordPress native search to bbPress 2.0 content

* Corrected hyperlink search results to the actual forum/topic/reply so that users can participate in the forum right away.

* Fixes bbPress login widget typo for all languages (the Log in button)

I’ve had this on my site for a while for testing (it is working great!) but have just submitted it to the WordPress.org repository. Hopefully if will appear soon. I also submitted a bug report to bbPress trac about the typo and how I performed search a while back (but a little too late for 2.0 release), so hopefully these items will be corrected / become native in future releases! Rather then wait for the repository, feel free to download it from my new site (free):

http://serverpress.com/products/search-bbpress/

If you like it, please let others know and/or tweet about it! My site is brand new, so any traffic would be greatly appreciated. Donations would be to just take a moment to review my other wares.

Thanks!

I don’t suppose you’re a programmer willing to join the team

To be honest folks, I’d say that based on all the feedback there is another days worth of work. But I can’t guarantee we’re going to be able to put that day aside until later next week or the week after. Our #1 priority right now is the next getshopped.org update.

So if there are any hard core devs out there that love open source… let me know!!

[spicynodes]

Sorry, I searched before, but just saw that user sulliwane2 asked a similar question 4 weeks ago in https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-shortcodes

Adding a few arguments would be very useful!

[spicynodes]

Are there options for short code [bbp-topic-index]?

e.g.

[bbp-topic-index max=7 pagination=off breadcrumbs=off]

If not, a few arguments would be a welcome addition to this and other short codes.

[travis.hill]

I’ve done the same thing to my installation, however, you may want to use a check to check a users role so only certain roles can post shortcode.

[travis.hill]

On this same page it would be great if I could have the bbp-forum-description, currently listed under the sub-forums, to be shown under the bbp-forum-title.

This can be accomplished with modifications to template files.

How can I list the sub-forums in a single line order

This is a style issue. Dig into the CSS and turn those list items into display:list-item; from #content table tbody tr ul.bbp-forums li in bbpress.css on line 285.

You’ll probably want to get rid of the pipe separator, as well.

Pass some $args through bbp_list_forums.

If your using custom templates, locate the loop-single-forum.php file. Somewhere around line 25 you should find the bbp_list_forums function. Pass it some $args like so:

<?php bbp_list_forums(array('separator' => '','show_topic_count' => false, 'show_reply_count' => false)); ?>

I’d really like to have the ‘Remember Me’ phrase be inline with the checkbox

In your stylesheet http://pacificbeach.me/wp-content/themes/jq/lib/css/style_ext.css on line 161, the label rule is throwing it off. Try adding a rule similar to this:

p.rememberme label: display: inline;

That worked for me in Chrome.

Hope I’ve gotten you closer!

[travis.hill]

Your request can be accomplished with a little grunt work. Are you asking for an “all-in-one” shortcode?

…with the exception of being able to hide the sidebars.

Content areas and sidebars are independent areas within a WordPress installation. Hiding the sidebar can be accomplished a few different ways: Within Appearance > Widgets, or you could comment out the code in the template files. But sidebars/widgets are always independent of content areas.

Why can’t the whole forum be put into a short-code so it can be applied inside a full-width page?

Why can’t a full width page be created and the shortcode placed inside? That is more in tune with what WordPress is built to do. Create a page. Give it a full width template (if your theme provides it), and place the shortcode within that page. Anything after that is accomplished is a style issue. I just wrote a post about full-width forums in your other topic:

Full-Width Forum

You can also read up on shortcodes here:

bbPress 2.0 – Shortcodes

bbPress does a good job of being a forum out of the box. Sure, there are issues, but the code is still in its infancy. Any cosmetic customization is up to the user, however.

[bizwizkid22]

On my bbp forum at pacificbeach dot me I’m trying to sort forums by order id as I assigned them when creating the forums. The primary forums sorted properly but, sub-forum ordering seems to be ignored. It’s not helpful for there to be any kind of auto-sorting i.e. based on sub-forum popularity.

On this same page it would be great if I could have the bbp-forum-description, currently listed under the sub-forums, to be shown under the bbp-forum-title.

How can I list the sub-forums in a single line order – as even though it eats up more room my users aren’t going to easily figure out how the current listing works.

Lastly, I’d really like to have the ‘Remember Me’ phrase be inline with the checkbox and cannot for the life of me figure out how to do that. I’ve been through every stylesheet so many times I think I can quote some of them :p

I’ve spent a good, solid eight hours on these issues so am at a loss and would really appreciate the help.

Thanks.

[highexistence]

That fixes the first error but I’m still getting this one:

topic.js:39Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method ‘wpList’

I’ve tried deactivating all plugins besides BBpress, switching to the default theme and re-installing BBpress. The errors still comes up.

wplist.js is being called before topic.js so it must be something in the code…?

[webowner]

Hello,

Thank you so much for your suggestions. I have done that, actually re-installed 3 times to no avail with “adding a new topic” in the forum (with just the BuddyPress installed).

Then, I deleted everything, set up a new domain, new database and did a clean installation alltogether – and this time it works . Thank heavens!

New link is: http://community.focusonedesign.ca

I will be working on it over the coming days, and hope all works well.

Thanks again
