DKB, doing this across multiple domains would be even awesomer! To enable something like this, can I get freelancers to do it for me for reasonable money? Or would that be so expensive that I’d be better of doing it myself. You say consult the docs (and thanks, Gautam) but I must stress I know nothing about codey stuff! Can anyone suggest a reliable WP/bbPress freelance coder?
Hi there,
first of all: thank you for this great Forum-Plugin!
I’ve got the standard installation by now and the shortcode [bbp-single-forum id="testforum1"] isn’t working for me.
Has anyone any idea what’s wrong?
[bbp-forum-index] on the same page works perfectly .. but i only want a single forum.
Thank you!
Originally we /really/ wanted a sexy p2 style theme for bbPress 2.0, but we scrapped it to focus on getting the foundation solid first. Long term we’d really like to have something ajax and fancy, so if any talented theme dev wants to step up and help build one, that would be swell.
@Patrick – Known issue. Will be fixed in Beta 3. 
@lamo21 – Doing it wrong. Check translate.wordpress.org for bbPress 2.0 translations.

… a few details on adding function support would be welcomed.

Is “fi” the exact language code you have set in your wp-config.php? It’s not “fi_FI” or “fi_SF” or whatever it might be?
I have the same problem right now with bbPress 1.0.3. If you’re interested, you can put this piece of code before the “if ( $relevant ) ” line:
<?php
foreach ( $relevant as $elementKey => $bb_post ) {
if(!($bb_post->post_text)) unset($relevant[$elementKey]);
}
?>
This deletes the relevant posts which are already in the recent posts, and so are broken.
Yes, you can get the standalone version to use the WP user tables and then also integrated the cookies for single log-on. Please consult the docs.
There are 2 ways of replying to topics in the bbPress plugin:
1) To go to the themed page and reply there in the box under the topic-creating 1st post. This works fine, but there are no buttons to easily embed images in your replies, so you have to create your html in a separate editor then paste the code into the reply. And worse, there is no upload buttons (I want my users to be able to upload images/vids to post into their replies).
2)You use the grey panel at the top with ‘Add’>’Reply’ and it takes you to the white, unthemed, admin-looking area (what is this area called please, just so i now!?!), where you do indeed have access to embed and upload buttons WHICH IS GREAT AND DOES INDEED UPLOAD AND EMBED….but, despite choosing the topic it is to link to in the top right dropdown named ‘Reply Attributes: Parent Topic’, doing it this way results in an orphaned reply which sits somewhere obscure on my webspace and does not appear under the topic it was meant for.
Is there a way to solve ‘2)’? Or will my users who i want to be able to put images and stuff in their topic replies have to stick to pasting in code? Have i broken my admin-looking area making it unable to link replies to topics? Could a conflicting plugin have caused this?
Please help!
Is <?php do_action( 'bbp_template_after_forums_index' ); ?> working for everyone else. I can’t find any other complaints about it.
The action is being called in archive-forum.php and should output the latest topic replies in chronological order of freshness.

Hi there,
but still any help on why the [ ] tags aren’t working
my plugin uses html tags and not BBCode.
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "your-htdocs/forums.example.com"
ServerName forums.example.com
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "your-htdocs/example.com"
ServerName example.com
ServerAlias www.example.com
</VirtualHost>
on *apache-config-dir*/sites-available/default (*apache-config-dir*extrahttpd-vhosts.conf on windows) (or somewhere else)
Is it possible for some one to show me how to do site integration with php
sudocode:
If (!loggedin){
echo “Login”;
}else{
echo UserId;
echo Username;
echo UserDisplayName;
}
I want bbPress to do all the authentication I just need to know how to pull that information. Or at least the userId. and I need this on the server side so I can do some other stuff. Thanks
@anointed a how-to guide on theme forum integration would be very helpful, thanks in advance if you publish one.

I’ve now installed the Zaerl editor which works, and the normal html tags are working for images and text effects.
My question isn’t as urgent anymore, but still any help on why the [ ] tags aren’t working will be appreciated
Hi
I’m putting together a forum over at http://forum.photoguides.net
It’s yet to be launched and I’ve been having some trouble with plugins.
The plugins Allow Images, BBcode Lite, BB WYSIWYG Editor don’t seem to be working.
Take a look at http://forum.photoguides.net/topic/test-thread where I’ve tried some tags. When logged in and with the reply form visible there is no editing panel for the wisywyg plugin.
These three plugins all seem to be correctly installed in the my-plugins folder and are active. I’m assuming that because all three aren’t working, there’s some fault with the setup of the site.
Any help would be greatly appreciated 
Thanks,
Ash Davies
@ideoplasm Adding a voting or rating system into bbPress 2.0 is extremely easy.
You can use this plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-postratings
or this one: http://www.gdstarrating.com/
Then just add the rating function in loop-topics.php (inside the loop).
You can do the same for loop-replies.php
I’m working in a voting forum myself.
This is an example:
<div class="topic-rating-count">
<h4><?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?></h4>
<span><?php _e( 'rating' ); ?></span>
</div>
<div class="topic-reply-count">
<h4><?php bbp_topic_reply_count(); ?></h4>
<span><?php _e( 'replies' ); ?></span>
</div>
<div class="topic-freshness">
<h4><?php bbp_topic_freshness_link(); ?></h4>
<span> <?php bbp_author_link( array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_topic_last_active_id(), 'size' => 14 ) ); ?>
</span>
</div>
Can the plugins on the site be used on the 2.0 beta forum as well? Do i just do as i normally would and upload them to my plugins folder?
Thanks
Jon
This is how I start a custom loop for a WordPress loop:
<br />
<?php $custom_posts = new WP_Query(); ?><br />
<?php $custom_posts->query('post_type=post&category=Uncategorized&order=ASC'); ?><br />
<?php while ($custom_posts->have_posts()) : $custom_posts->the_post(); ?><br />
<div class="project"><br />
<a>" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( 'Permalink to %s', 'twentyten' ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?></a><br />
<h2><a>" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( 'Permalink to %s', 'twentyten' ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2><br />
<p><?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'rw_services', true); ?></p><br />
</div><br />
<?php endwhile; ?><br />
How to start a custom loop in bbpress 2.0, For example, topics from a certain forum or category? (and even show the reply count?)
It is really hard to troubleshoot the problem with a link to the site itself. Need to read the code output to see what is happening
edit the buddypress.css file line 1218
table.forum {
margin: -9px 0 20px;
width: auto;
}
If you are using a child theme then it is better to make the change there, as every time buddypress is updated you will loose the rule above.
Hi, I’ve just installed bbpress and I’m having problems with table spacing. The first few letters get cut off in the main index, I’m left with “opic Title” instead of “Topic Title”, and the thread titles are missing the first 2 letters as well. I’ve done a string search for “topic title” in the bbpress directory, but I can’t seem to find the related code. Any advice on how to fix this problem?
