Ok… I now have everything back to normal… I had a Map from another site displaying on one of the topic posts. Once I got rid of that the topic margins went back to normal. But why did it take from to 24 August till this afternoon to melt down on me…

You would think that it would have gone then… but it waited until today… That is strange if that is what really caused it…

Thoughts?

Thanks for a great product…

I just noticed on of my topics is running the words off to the right and under the side panel. I would assume this is one of my plugins but it only happens on two of the topics. Foliage reports http://jeff-foliage.com/forums/topic/foliage-reports/ and http://jeff-foliage.com/forums/topic/favorite-foliage-routes/

The rest of my topics both with and without pictures all line up on the right side and don’t slide under the side panel…

Any ideas? do you think this is a plugin causing problems and most importantly has anyone else seen it?

I’m running the current beta RC-4 and I’m working in Chrome and Firefox and IE9 and all show the same thing and the box for the posts are running out of room…

If you have the time to properly integrate your themes, go for the plugin. If not, then standalone and migrate later (only if you’re integrating the user tables if you have a WP blog).

Hi all,

I have searched the forums but can find nothing that discusses permalinks for the latest version install of WordPress and the BBpress plugin.

This is the issue: I have set up WordPress and then installed the BBpress plugin via the plugin installer.

I have added add_theme_support( ‘bbpress’ ); to my theme and then built all the template pages required so that bbpress functions.

Here is the issue which I need help with:

With the Permalinks set to DEFAULT the integration works with no issues at all. However when I turn on pretty permalinks whilst the main forum page and topic pages work the USER and USER edit pages return a page not found.

I have looking at the SINGLE SLUG area and adjusted but I just resolve the 404 errors for these particular areas.

The one thing I did try is to set up a page called USER with he BBPRESS code. THis worked for the View page but not for the edit page.

Any help appreciated.

Paul

Yup, I’m not logged in.

What are the other short codes?

[travis.hill]

A side note to this:

Make sure you, as a registered user, are not logged in when trying to view a register page. It’ll redirect to homepage if you are.

[travis.hill]

I used CSS to modify the image size, but there may be a better way.

.bbp-reply-author img	{

height:50px;

width:50px;

}

Change the height & width to the desired size.

Does this little bit of code in the functions.php work? Is this the plugin you are talking about?

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1575

I’ve actually tried using the search bar here several times but it wasn’t working for a while, it was just bring up a broken page (I don’t think it was a 404). But it seems to be working now.

Is there any way to create two separate search bars? Or drop down options like in Buddypress to search Members, Groups, Forums, Posts?

I got a little more info from the theme (Sofa OPNPress from ThemeForest) owner… these are his words exactly:

“Yeap, I’m afraid breadcrumbs will not work with BBpress. And I think there’s no function or a plugin that will actually do the job properly. This theme is using Dimox breadcrumbs function (see http://sum.mx/4apyd2). Maybe you could ask for author advice on that subject… as far as I can see all the breadcrumbs logic relies on if-else clauses and if there’s a clause that can be used to “detect” BBpress – you are on the horse.”

To answer your question, and I’m sure I’m over simplifying, I guess I was just going to use short codes to get the forums to show up and then rely on the built in breadcrumbs to do their job. But if I could figure out at least what is causing the conflict and causing the page to break the I could fix that and if 2 breadcrumbs were show I’d settle for that. Or, said a different way, if the main site breadcrumbs are more important to me than the forum breadcrumbs if that makes sense.

I’m more of a frontend coder with the ability to do minor tweaking to existing function files which is why I’ve gotten to this point. It’s a bit over my head on how best to address it. I hate being the unique scenario guy but would love to use bbpress for facilitating my community interaction. Any more help is deeply appreciated.

Thanks!!

[travis.hill]

Ah! that makes sense. Yeah, I wouldn’t want everyone to have the ability to post a shortcode. But the challenge sounds easy enough.

Thanks!

[John James Jacoby]

I have them turned off for now, as many shortcodes assume the post author has the trusted ability to post content, which for forums might not be best.

It would be a rather simple plugin to create, although you’d probably want some kind of UI to map shortcodes to user roles. You may not want every registered user to post a poll, but you might want to allow users to use code formatting, for example.

[travis.hill]

Does the bbPress plugin (2.0-RC-4) allow shortcodes from other plugins?

I wish to enter a poll into a discussion using wp-polls, but the shortcode comes through instead of the poll.

Thank you for assisting me.

The site is: http://www.actorexpo.co.uk/blog

I opened header.php and the div class reads as follows:

<div class=”padder”>

I went to the RTL Stylesheet and looked up “padder”

this is the code:

div#content .padder {

margin-left: 225px;

margin-right: 0;

border-left: 1px solid #e4e4e4;

border-right: 0;

-moz-border-radius-topright: 6px;

-moz-border-radius-topleft: 0;

-webkit-border-top-right-radius: 6px;

-webkit-border-top-left-radius: 0;

-moz-border-radius-bottomright: 6px;

-moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 0;

-webkit-border-bottom-right-radius: 6px;

-webkit-border-bottom-left-radius: 0;

}

div#content .left-menu {

float: right;

}

div#content .main-column {

margin-right: 190px;

margin-left: 0;

}

Is there something in here that is making all my text align in the center?

Is it the margins??

Thank you

[Gautam Gupta]

Ok, got it. You need to remove <div class="center"> and the associated </div> from your theme (probably header.php and footer.php). Or just remove class="center".

[Gautam Gupta]

Can you please provide a link to your forums?

[remstar]

Hi

New to buddy press and BP Themes, so forgive me.

I installed it all easily, created a child theme and activated it.

Now all my content on the site is center aligned where i’d prefer it to ALL be Left aligned.

I have looked in CSS files in both and don’t know which bit to change, i have no idea what margin does what or where floating postions float to.

So if anyone could give me a simple ‘beginners’ response with how to simply ‘Align all my content text to the Left’ – i’d be extremely grateful.

A Million Gazillion thanks

The search in bbPress 2.0 is purposely limited. It’s possible to remove the restriction with code (a small plugin) but I wouldn’t recommend it, since the actual number of users that search your forums is surprisingly small.

For an example, had you searched these forums, you would have found several topics about this already. Instead you naturally skimmed the site, didn’t see an immediate answer anywhere, and asked your question.

[John James Jacoby]

Yes. Delete the plugin via your favorite FTP program, and see if things come back to normal. If so, you need to do some trouble shooting to see what the conflict is. If not, you still need to trouble shoot, but at least you know bbPress isn’t the problem.

[John James Jacoby]

Good question. The main reason it loads all the time is shortcodes. bbPress doesn’t have any way to know that the_content contains a shortcode when the head of the page is being processed, so including it all the time is the safest bet for most people.

If you want to dial in your installation, you can wrap the CSS enqueue in a is_bbpress() check. is_bbpress() returns true when WordPress is loading up a bbPress specific page.

[blueorange]

Ok, so my problem has been restricting a certain role to read private forums. No matter what I did the topics in the private forum weren´t visible.

This was fixed as soon as I added the read_hidden_forums() capability. I assume that is not normal since the forums are set to <i>private</i> and not <i>hidden</i>.

Anyway, thought I´d share that with the rest.

Great plugin

[al3xander]

hey guys,

i’m currently using a wpms installation and bbpress.

i would like to load the stylesheet which bbpress has, only to load on bbpress specific pages, why would it load on on the blogs startpage anyway?

is there a way to do that?

regards,

alex

[John James Jacoby]

Maybe an easier way to get a unique sidebar for your forums is to try this:

1. Make a file in your active theme called bbpress.php.

2. Copy the contents of your page.php into bbpress.php.

3. Instead of calling get_sidebar(), put your custom sidebar code there

4. Done.

Since you seem satisfied with everything else, this should be the easiest may to get by for now. I’ll take a look through the instructions again and try to put something more in-depth together soon.

[John James Jacoby]

Yay! Thanks!

I am using WordPress 3.2.1 and installed the bbpress 2.0 RC4 plugin. Immediately after activating the plugin, I could no longer access anything on my site. Not the home page. Not the Dashboard. What I keep getting are the following errors.

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 30720 bytes) in/home4/paperwin/public_html/yousuckatkorean/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-admin/bbp-settings.php on line 589

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 24 bytes) in/home4/paperwin/public_html/yousuckatkorean/wp-includes/taxonomy.php on line 2631

I searched the support forum for “error after install bbpress 2011” but couldn’t find much.

I tried re-uploading the bbpress plugin folder, but to no avail.

It seems like a WordPress issue rather than a server issue since the server is telling me that my error is coming from the WP directory, and I’m able to access other sites on the same server.

Any ideas on how to solve? Is it safe to simply delete the bbpress plugin folder? Will that solve the problem?

I don’t know what the ‘taxonomy.php’ file does. Should I re-upload a virgin copy of it?

Any help would be VERY much appreciated. Thank you!

regards,

Ryan

Pulled my hair out a few hours on this one … not sure why I didn’t dig into the plugins initially and look for this, but must have been sleep deprived as usual

It seems bbPress 2.0 and Jigashop use the exact same menu positions … so when I installed bbPress (jigashop already installed) … I could not for the life of me figure out how to create forums… after searching around i saw that there was indeed supposed to be a Forums custom post type menu, but in my installation I could not find it.

So, yeah if anyone else needs to install these 2 plugins then just find menu_position where the custom post types are setup and change them to be unique numbers.

Hopefully this will be helpful to the next person that encounters this.
