Managed to add it. But now the title underneath overlaps it

See how the poll appears on the right hand side? I wouldn’t mind but you can’t see all of it. Can I change it to appear above the first topic response.

This is the CSS code within the plugin;

#bb_polls {list-style: none; width:35em; line-height:120%; margin:5px 0; padding:5px; border:1px solid #ADADAD; font-size:90%; color:#000; background:#eee; }

#bb_polls .submit {cursor: pointer; cursor: hand; text-align:center; padding:2px 5px;}

#bb_polls .nowrap {white-space:nowrap;}

#bb_polls p {margin:15px 0;padding:0;}

#bb_polls .poll_question, #bb_polls .poll_footer {font-weight:bold; text-align:center; color:#2E6E15;}

#bb_polls .poll_label {font-weight:bold; margin:1em 0 1em 1em;}

#bb_polls .poll_option {overflow:hidden; white-space:nowrap; margin:2px 0 -2px 0; text-align:center; font-size:11px; line-height:9px; padding:1px 0 0 0; border:1px solid #303030; color:#fff; }

#bb_polls .poll_option1 {background:red;}

#bb_polls .poll_option2 {background:green;}

#bb_polls .poll_option3 {background:blue;}

#bb_polls .poll_option4 {background:orange;}

#bb_polls .poll_option5 {background:purple;}

#bb_polls .poll_option6 {background:pink;}

#bb_polls .poll_option7 {background:olive;}

#bb_polls .poll_option8 {background:navy;}

#bb_polls .poll_option9 {background:teal;}

#bb_polls .poll_option10 {background:aqua;}

#bb_polls .poll_option11 {background:maroon;}

#bb_polls .poll_option12 {background:fuchsia;}

It is the blank 3 column theme. I am using bbpress 1.0.3

Cool. I’m game and have some cash to burn so if you want this or if somebody else wants this then please reply

I’m running the latest dev version of the plugin, version 3476, in hopes that it would have solved my issue, but no luck.

I was getting the error mentioned in this thread http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/tags-archives-page-are-broken-in-bbp-20-rc2-and-rc3#post-90903

I downloaded the branch code after reading the above issue and it’s resolution. Then, I started getting the WordPress “Hands off, partner!” error which is a 500 Internal Server error in Firebug.

Any ideas about what could be causing the page to not display correctly?

Thanks so much for your help and the great plugin.

Hi folks,

Always one to make things twice as hard as they need be, I started out designing a theme for the standalone product and I’d now like to change gears and port it to the plugin version.

Essentially, I didn’t think I’d use WordPress for my main site… but I’ve since come to change my mind. Now, I’ve got a nice custom theme for both my WordPress installation and a nice theme for my bbPress installation.

At this point, I can’t decide if I’d be best to keep them separated and use the integration options or to sit and re-theme everything with the plugin version. If I were to continue to use the standalone, is it possible to create widgets similar to the “recent topics” and others created by the plugin version? And subsequently, is there a way to use shortcodes for embedding bbPress into WordPress pages? heh

Sorry for the novel…

[theurbantwist]

Sorry about the popup…forgot I had activated that plugin. Was testing a few things out and left it up because I needed someone to test my code for me. Once he tests the code out with plugin activated, I will change settings so that it doesn’t pop up for quite that long and also you should’ve been able to click away to close. I may have to make that more clearer to other visitors.

Thanks again for that…

But back to the topic. Do you know what template files would have to be edited in the bbp-twentyten theme for me to play around with it to try to get it that way?

I’ve been trying to figure out what file needs to be edited and can’t seem to find it.

Thanks

[wordpress Spec]

I use this conde in bb-config.php for my integration with wordpress 2.9.2

if ( !defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) & !defined( ‘XMLRPC_REQUEST’ )) {

define( ‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false );

//

// You will need to get the ABSOLUTE path to this file |

// |/

require_once( $_SERVER[“DOCUMENT_ROOT”].’/wp-load.php’ );

header( “HTTP/1.1 200 OK” );

header( “Status: 200 All rosy” );

}

/**

now I upadated wordpress to 3.2.1 but I get an error, my forum home not load, the error log is blank, but if I comment the above code it work.

I think that the problem is incompatible with that version

As suggested by InterMike I set up a new fresh combo of both with clean databses on localhost via XAMPP to identify the problem! Guess what? I am still stuck!

bbPress related stuff won’t show in buddypress activity stream.

So either me is an idiot or I have some problems in understanding the setup for getting it to work. It’s stated that this should work since bbPress RC2 but didn’t work for me til now.

Here’s my setup again:

Install WP 3.2.1

Install bbPress RC2

Install BuddyPress 1.5 Beta2

Disable Discussion Forums in BuddyPress on Installation Wizard

Tried so many things and switched installation orders of bbPress / BuddyPress but that still won’t work. So anyone of the people having the bbPress related stuff working / showing in BuddyPress activitiy stream please show me the way on how to get it working, too.

[John James Jacoby]

The guys at WPCandy either used Shortcodes or a custom template to pull that off.

If you’re going to link to your site here for help, please remove the Facebook pop up. Waiting 30 seconds to see it was really frustrating.

[theurbantwist]

I think I finally figured this whole bbpress thing out somewhat…finally!

I just need a little help from the community here to add one last thing.

My forum can be viewed here:

http://www.theurbantwist.com/community

Nevermind the “Company Man Comic” banner that’s there now…it’s just a place holder til I get a banner designed strictly for this forum.

I’m used the bbpress plugin and the default bbp-twentyten theme that came with it…nothing fancy. I just updated some of the css code that would apply to make some of the tables fit.

My main question is how could I go about adding a “Recent Topics” list on the front page of forum as seen on this site?

Open Forums

It looks they’re using the same default theme that I am.

Just curious as to how I would list Recent Topics beneath my forum list on the front page. Like what theme files would I have to edit and such.

Appreciate the help.

Thanks

@Gautam-Thanks for letting us know then.

[John James Jacoby]

He’s using the beta/RC versions of both. Pretty well too with very little modification.

Nice work!

[Gautam Gupta]

bbPress plugin is already a lot stable. Its RC 3 is already available to the people and there is just 1 ticket left for 2.0 on the Trac. I think in a few days or weeks time, you’d see the download page flashing 2.0.

[Gautam Gupta]

anointed: He is talking about bbPress standalone.

polimon: Please go to https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk and when you would scroll down, you would see “Download in other formats: Zip Archive”, click “Zip Archive” and upload the extracted appropriate directory into the appropriate directory on the server.

Nice to see an attachments plugin for bbPress, thanks!

[Gautam Gupta]

Nice to hear that!

[polimon]

@igikloppers – I read the post you linked, but I’m not a coder, so it makes little sense to me. I have really enjoyed using BBPress in the past, and was disappointed to run into a major roadblock this time, when I was simply trying to install it. Perhaps this means BBPress is not seeing enough use to be worth development time? What happened to the famous 5 minute install?

[spaghetti]

I am also interested to know how to combat this so please help us find a solution if anyone knows. Thanks in advance

[spaghetti]

I think so… I indeed misunderstood. Thanks for clarifying

[Micheal Kennedy]

Not sure if this belongs here or in Trac, or both, so I guess I’ll stick it in both

I used the Latest Topics short code on a new page (“Latest Rants”) and I set that page as my homepage (via Settings > Reading), but now, if I, for example, click on page 2 of Latest Rants (which is pointing to site.com/page/2), it redirects me to the blog posts URL site.com/2011/08/14/21/.

I’ve tried refreshing permalinks, but that didn’t work Any help would be greatly appreciated! As it’s rendering my homepage a little unuseful at the moment.

[Micheal Kennedy]

Our site allmad.org (a ranting community) is using the latest bbPress 2.0-RC3, and it’s working awesomely with BuddyPress 1.5! (When updating the plugin, don’t forget to visit the WP permalinks and resave them, else links to forums may not work.) I love how every time someone posts a reply or new topic, it shows up on their profile and on the Activity Stream – it’s so awesome! Keep up the good work guys!!!

[Meakin]

Hey, I’m trying to install BBPress on my current wordpress site and getting very confused. First of all I tried to install it as a standalone site on 2 servers and after uploading all of the files and trying to access the installer – it would just be a blank page.

So then I installed it as a plugin which worked, but I can’t seem to work out how to display the forum in my current theme. If I switch on TwentyTen, the forum displays properly, however if I turn on my theme nothing displays. I’ve duplicated the files from the bbp-themes/BBP-TwentyTen into my custom theme folder as a ‘child theme’ – which appears to be working (I can see all of the files when I go to appearance / editior), but it still will not show up the forum. I’ve also added the line to functions.php that I should’ve – so there’s no error messages about BBPress not being able to use the custom theme files

Here’s where the main forum should appear: http://ibiza2011.info/forum – it seems to be picking up the navigation, but not displaying the forum. I then created a forum in the admin – http://ibiza2011.info/forum/club-tickets/ but nothing displays their either!!

Please help someone

[John James Jacoby]

Interesting. This really shouldn’t be an issue. Not sure what would cause it. Possible you have some custom code or plugins that are offending? Try switching back to bbp-twentyten and turning off plugins to find the culprit.

[flexfuel]

Links to new users profile are not working for me. Clicking a user link in a forum topic , results in a 404 error.

Example

Topic

http://discordgames.com/?topic=welcome

http://discordgames.com/?bbp_user=3

Works

http://discordgames.com/?bbp_user=10

broke

I wish I had more data to give , but I have little experience with bbpress and am not sure what line of code is being called.

Thanks!
