Hi. In the plugin directory I have included a folder named smilies. Copy this directory and its contents into the ./wp-content/ directory.
Essentially:
mv ./wp-content/plugins/bbpress-post-toolbar/smilies ./wp-content/ -r
If you want to change the smilies, take a look at the package-config.php file inside the smilies directory mentioned above and you can probably work out how to switch the files, or add more to the set.

I think I’ll update my plugin so that instead of defaulting to WordPress’ smilies, it’ll defaults to the smilies folder in the plugin dir.
ie: Order of preference will become:
if option allows custom smilies:
./wp-content/smilies/
./wp-content/plugins/bbpress-post-toolbar/smilies/
else:
WordPress’ default set.
Try this:
.bbPress .hentry table td, .bbPress .hentry table th, .bbp-forum-info {
text-align: left;
}
Try this:
.bbPress .hentry table td, .bbPress .hentry table th {
text-align: left;
}
Maybe you’ll need an !important there, but try that first.
Hi, I’m using a theme which has 2 widget sidebars, and my forum is looking mighty squished. Is there a way I can lessen the gap between the columns in the forum? I could use all the extra space I can get.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Without seeing the actual site / code I’m afraid I can’t help you. (not promising I can help you (or have the time) when I see it either by the way)
You can target bbPress with
.bbPress
for instance
.bbPress #content {
width:903px;
}
Hi Pimarts,
I have found that code in one of my plugins and deactivated it but without luck.
I have also tried adding “body {text-align:left!important}” to my Custom CSS, but also without any joy.
Do you know of any CSS that I might be able to add to directly affect the bbPress pages?
Something along the lines of “.bbp-content {text-align:left}”
many thanks,
Glyn
The plugin is not finished yet, documentation will be made (available) when the plugin is done. For now you’ll have to look into the files and search this forum. Because this question has been answered already.
See https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-and-studiopress-genesis-can-someone-please-tell-me-if-this-works for instance.
In short: bbPress uses WordPress users, your users can register like they would normally for the WordPress installation. There are shortcodes for login / register pages though.
Thanks both,
I am using the plugin version 2.0.
The phrase “Cheap Benidorm hotels and apartments” is the title of the home page, but not the menu title, which is of course ‘home’.
Successfully disable with the code above… that will do for now!
many thanks,
Glyn
Strange, it doesn’t do that for me.
Which version are you using? The plugin (if so, which version), the stand-alone version?
A quick (& dirty) fix to hide the breadcrumbs would be:
.bbp-breadcrumb {
display:none;
}
domain/wp-login.php?action=register should do the trick.
There are shortcodes for the following though, so you might be able to make your own register page (I’m running bbPress in combination with BuddyPress so I don’t need it):
[bbp-login]
[bbp-register]
[bbp-lost-pass]
Making a subdomain is the exact same process. It has nothing to do with bbPress and everything to do with your WordPress Network configuration. It’s all neatly laid out in the codex. This is for advanced users though.
If you just want the sub-domain for cosmetic reasons (i.e. it just looks tidier) that’s not really good enough reason to set up a network site. You have to realize that enabling Network comes with a lot of implications on how you can use and extend your WordPress site. For example, only a small percentage of the plugins in the WordPress repository have been tested and made to work in a Network environment.

If you ask when bbPress 2.0 will be released, your post will be deleted. The answer will always be the same with every version: As soon as it’s ready.

oh. that’s so sad
Pimarts, thanks for the information.
Hi,
I’m not expert in BBPress. I like to build my new forum in BBPrss 2.0. In BBPrees 2.0, the functions are different from BBPrees 1X. Where I can find the function references like http://codex.wordpress.org/
Please give me the link.
New here!
I got all the way through installation last week and testing of bbpress within a protected WordPress site, and love the forum – I so appreciate the simplicity and ease of the thing, esp. for someone who has little experience with this sort of thing.
My only issue at this point is that once anyone is logged in and posts a reply or new topic, the updated reply/topic displays fine UNTIL returning to the main forum page at which point it is necessary to log out and then log back in to actually see the updates. Again, I’m so pleased with the forum itself, but this may be the thing that keeps my boss from letting the forum go live 
WP version is 3.1.4 and I’m using the forum as my home page of the blog. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks so much!
I’d suggest looking at using bbPress 2.0 within WordPress. bbPress 2.0 is pre-release now, but was expected to be gold when WP 3.2 came out. WP 3.2 was released on Monday, but I haven’t seen an update for bbPress 2.0. The standalone version (1.x) of bbPress is expected the same time bbPress 2.0 is released, but I haven’t followed the progress of that version.
A phpbb3 to bbPress 2.0 converter is in the works. The ticket for it is https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1547. I’m guessing work on it will pick up once bbPress 2.0 goes gold. My understanding is the converter will keep usernames, passwords, and threads, but I don’t know about mail.
You will be able to fully customize the theme using either version of bbPress. Since I’d recommend using bbPress 2.0 inside WordPress, the relevant instructions are for creating WP themes (https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development) and adding bbPress compatibility (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-theme-compatibility).
The Akismet antispam plugin is not running here. I’d suggest installing it as you develop your own solution because you may find it meets your needs.
There’s another fix, but it’s not preferred if you ask me:
Put this in your CSS:
<br />
.bbPress #sidebar {<br />
display:none;<br />
}<br />
This hides the sidebar from view in the browser, the code will be loaded anyway though (that’s why I don’t prefer it).
Edit/update:
Oh and then you ofcourse need to make the left area wider too, I think it will be something like this according to your code:
.bbPress #left-area {
width: 875px; /* change that 875 to whatever width you want/need */
}
I just tried your code, but it did not work for me.

Hi I am looking for a plugin which will let users to hide part of the post content from other users. The data would be visible only for the author and admins. I use bbpress as support forum and I sometimes clients want to post info like server login or smth. Do you know any plugin which can do this?
i can use wordpress to use this forum. my site is coded from scratch. except for the forums. i use phpbb. i like the layout sequence of this forum and wanted to use it. but i can probably just edit the phpbb code myself to get the results i want.
spambots on an official site promoting a service rubs me the wrong way and is a turn off
PS: I’m thinking of having it check for youtube links that are not inside the shortcode, also. But I’ll get to that when I can be bothered.
My post toolbar plugin handles youtube by way of shortcode [youtube]link[/youtube].

I also will have the same problem when I upgrade my site in that the old posts will just be links to the video, rather than embedding them. Personally I don’t see a problem here though
