Ok thanks that got it. I was able to get an image in there and it looks real good

http://www.geekncode.com/wp

Let me know how it looks

[simplethemes.com]

I see, then your best bet is to just leave the text header as-is and add a background image attribute to the #header selector.

change:

#header {

clear: both;

margin-top: 16px;

}

to:

#header {

clear: both;

margin-top: 16px;

background: url(http://www.url.com/path/to/image.png) no-repeat right center;

}

…obviously replacing the URL to the image with one of your own.

[simplethemes.com]

If you go to “Theme Options” and select “Display a custom image/logo image in place of title header” you can upload an image or paste the URL to one from your media library.

Below that, you can set your logo width and logo height. You should resize the image prior to uploading so it doesn’t look choppy. The size is up to you – depending on the orientation of your logo graphic.

To align it to the right, you’ll need to edit the style.css.

Find:

#header .inner {

padding-top: 15px;

padding-bottom: 20px;

}

and change to:

#header .inner {

padding-top: 15px;

padding-bottom: 20px;

float:right;

}

Glad you like the theme

@anointed no worries mate, if you want to take on a contract once you’re done, let me know

Also has anybody done an “inline editing” Plugin yet? I want to be able to edit threads like you can edit posts in P2

You should be able to add any widget to the ‘Forum Sidebar’ location.

If bbPress is installed, this widget location gets registered:

http://screencast.com/t/axXP7yykY

If it isn’t showing up, make sure it isn’t commented out in the forum templates you want it to show in. I only enabled it in the templates I felt were necessary (like the member pages).

On some of my forum pages I wanted a wide page, but you can certainly change it.

For example, to change the forum home page template, open archive-forum.php in the theme editor and just uncomment this line:

// get_sidebar('bbpress');

Then, in functions.php find this line:

// force wide on bbPress pages

if (is_bbpress()) {

$columns = 'sixteen';

}

and change ‘sixteen’ to ‘eleven’ to accommodate the sidebar.

I made a post toolbar, but its not wysiwyg or tinyMCE. Just buttons to add html and shortcode tags.

I installed this theme and its pretty nice. One question I have is I wanted to added a widget to the forum sidebar but it doesn’t show up. Any idea what I need to do to get it to show up?

1. Yes it is possible. Depending upon what you want to display, I would start by looking at the widget code for bbpress to see how they are pulling out the most recent topics and apply that to your theme home page.

2. Not by default but there will be changes on that in the future.

@getshopped

I’ll do my best to try and find some time this weekend to install the plugin and report back what I find. I did read through the code, but have not yet done anything with it.

Sorry, no idea about devs, everyone I know is absolutely slammed right now. Will keep an ear out though.

*I’ve got my hands absolutely full with the new importer and building the supporting site for it. After that, projects are still lined up…

[Gustav820]

Great! Gautam thanks for all help!

[Gautam Gupta]

Sorry for that. Link updated.

[centrius]

Thx for the answer, if i see it again ill try to get back to you, althought everyone seems to see it ok, just my comp thats actung up. saw it just now on a diffrent page also. strange indeed

[John James Jacoby]

Hey everyone

In the coming days/weeks you early-2.0-adopters are going to be the life-support of what is the most passionate community I have the privilege of contributing to. Us bbPress’ers are a tight-knit group.

There will be confusion about versions, questions about migration, converting 1.x based plugins and themes, and the list goes on and on. I can’t do it alone, and if I did you’d wish I hadn’t.

We are going to need some good documentation. Drop a note here if you can help, and draft up some instructions regarding things you’ve already hacked away on. I’ll make a real documentation section and let you all have at it.

Also mention what you think your time commitment can be. Be realistic, and don’t overextend yourself. This is totally casual but if you sign up for something, I’m going to expect that it get done.

Let’s put a volunteer team together to launch this thing

[Gustav820]

What guide? (no link)

[Gautam Gupta]

Thanks for this!

I’d recommend if you upload this on the WordPress Plugin Repo with the bbPress tag.

[Gautam Gupta]

All plugins in the Plugins section on this site are for bbPress 1.1 or below only. For bbPress 2.0+ plugins, please check here (some might not be bbPress plugins).

[Gautam Gupta]

Please enable pretty permalinks on your site by going to Settings -> Permalinks, that would help. To add a forum link in the menu bar, please check this user guide.

[Gautam Gupta]

When you would install bbPress 2.0 plugin on WordPress, go to WordPress Admin Section -> Tools -> Import -> bbPress importer and follow the onscreen steps.

[Gustav820]

Nobody knows?

[Jon Brown]

Most likely you don’t have those metaboxes turned on under Screen Options.

See https://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Screens#Screen_Options

Top Right corner of the menu’s page, click screen options, check Forums/etc then you should see them for easy addition to menus.

[Stephanie Leary]

… I should probably post my filter mini-plugin in case anyone else is testing this:

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: bbPress Registration Redirect

Plugin URI: http://sillybean.net/

Version: 0.2

Author: Stephanie Leary

*/



add_filter( 'bbp_user_register_redirect_to', 'scl_print_bbp_redirect' );

function scl_print_bbp_redirect($url) {

return 'http://forum.sillybean.net/register/confirm/';

}

?>

[Stephanie Leary]

OK, changeset #3450 only partially fixes this problem. Even with a ‘bbp_user_register_redirect_to’ filter, the redirect_to hidden field still gets stomped by the first if() in bbp_redirect_to_field() — line 741.

I tested this on my multisite install. With that first if() commented out, the redirect_to field is set correctly — but even so, I get redirected to the main site’s wp-signup.php.

ETA: OH! I think we’re seeing two different problems here.

On Jared’s single-site install, I suspect what’s happening is that the page containing the registration shortcode just isn’t doing anything with the checkemail query arg. So, it would be fine to have the user redirected back to that page, as long as the query arg generated the proper “check your email” notice.

What I’m seeing on multisite actually looks like this bug in WP itself.

[EddieG]

Thank you for this. I didn’t know I could block by IP at all, any way at all, without a plugin.

Testing “Spam Free WordPress” now. At first glance it is effortless, automatic and accurate. I may soon test it on bbPress.

[Gustav820]

Hi!

I’ve installed the BBpress 2.0 RC3 plugin for WordPress and it works fine. Sorry for a newbie question but how do you add a link to my forum on my homepage menu? I have Twenty Eleven theme and would like a link called “forum”.

Can I also have like mysite.com/FORUM?

Thanks!

[spixy]

So how should my hierarchy looks like, i cannot create a good one…

What I did is:

1. I created a PAGE, and name it as ‘forum’

so the link would be http://mydomain.com/forum

-the content of that page is the shortcode [bbp-forum-index]

2. I created a FORUM named General Discussions

-problem is when i open that forum, shows nothing, just the header

GENERAL DISCUSSIONS

3. I created again a PAGE named general chat and put the shortcode

[bbp-topic-form]

im pretty messed up, can you guide me on creating this forum

i have an idea, but seems i cannot explain and do it

something like
