For a page you write, you can choose the type of layout you want given that your theme offers that. However, bbPress runs on a page created on the fly, three is no page called “forums” unless you create one and then use shortcodes to bring up the forum.

Every theme has a CSS file which can be edited within WordPress. Go to Appearance/Editor and your theme CSS should load. I edited my theme’s CSS and added the code I gave in my previous post.

[ACEkin]

I ended up adding a new CSS rule to my theme’s CSS file, luckily bbPress uses a unique class on the page. Adding the following removed the sidebar from my theme, which is based on Genesis:

body.bbpress .sidebar {
display: none ! important;
width: 0px;
}

body.bbpress #content {width: 920px;}

Keep in mind that the content width of 920px is based on my theme’s container and you may need to adjust it to suit your needs.

Here is my installation:
http://www.psri.us/forums

[Tecca]

Find this in your bbpress.css file:

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic, #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topics, #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-forums, #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies, #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-search-results

Within that, there will be font-size: 12px. Change the pixel number to a higher value.

The bbPress.css will be located in your bbPress folder in your plugins. If you don’t have the bbPress.css in your theme, copy that file and put it into a folder called “css” directly with of your theme files.

After weeks trying to find something that would work, I found the code on wordpress forums to remove completely gravatars (and redirects it was causing.. )

here is it:

function bp_remove_gravatar ($image, $params, $item_id, $avatar_dir, $css_id, $html_width, $html_height, $avatar_folder_url, $avatar_folder_dir) {
	$default = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/images/mystery-man.jpg';
	if( $image && strpos( $image, "gravatar.com" ) ){ 
		return '<img src="' . $default . '" alt="avatar" />';
	} else {
		return $image;
	}
}
add_filter('bp_core_fetch_avatar', 'bp_remove_gravatar', 1, 9 );

function remove_gravatar ($avatar, $id_or_email, $size, $default, $alt) {
	$default = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/images/mystery-man.jpg';
	return "<img alt='{$alt}' src='{$default}' height='{$size}' width='{$size}' />";
}

add_filter('get_avatar', 'remove_gravatar', 1, 5);

function bp_remove_signup_gravatar ($image) {
	$default = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/images/mystery-man.jpg';
	if( $image && strpos( $image, "gravatar.com" ) ){ 
		return '<img src="' . $default . '" alt="avatar" width="60" height="60" />';
	} else {
		return $image;
	}

}
add_filter('bp_get_signup_avatar', 'bp_remove_signup_gravatar', 1, 1 );

As I am now planning to disable buddypress completely. I am looking for an easy way to let users upload their avatars in bbpress, anyone tried it already?

Hi,

I would like to put in my WP menu a customized navigation button that leads the logged in current user to his/her bbpress profile.

Basically, I want the WP menu bar to have a button that enables the user to navigate to his/her bbpress profile. What is the CCS function code to put in the menu bar?

Currently it’s too complicated for a user to find his/her bbpress profile and navigate to the forum area. Any information would be appreciated.

[zerocoolflo]

Hell everyone,

First I want to thank the developers for doing such a great job with this plugin (I just discovered it) and I hope I’ll get it working.

I installed bbPress on my website and observed it ruined the forum’s sidebar (practically, the old sidebar was still active but pushed down and looked weird and at the top of the forum’s sidebar I had a message “comments are closed on this page”).

Nonetheless I discovered the problem:

Well, I am using the thesis theme on my website and I customized all my posts to show related posts by inserting this code in custom.css file:

function my_related_posts() {
if (is_single()) {
global $post;
$current_post = $post->ID;
$categories = get_the_category();
foreach ($categories as $category) :
?>
<div class=”my-recent-posts”><h4>Additional Reading…</h4>

<?php
$posts = get_posts(‘numberposts=5&category=’. $category->term_id . ‘&exclude=’ . $current_post);
foreach($posts as $post) :
?>
• “><?php the_title(); ?>

<?php endforeach; ?><?php endforeach; ?>

</div>
<?php
}
wp_reset_query();
}
add_action(‘thesis_hook_after_post’,’my_related_posts’);

I absolutely want to keep related posts on my posts.

When I delete this “related posts code”, the sidebar works as it should.

Any workaround/Suggestions?

[Nykess]

If I could use divs or something, I could do it, but using only CSS I don’t know how I would do that. Can you help?

Thanks.

[strangelife]

You can use the following css,

th.bbp-forum-info {
	text-align: left;
	width: 85%;
}
th.bbp-forum-topic-count, td.bbp-forum-topic-count {
	text-align: center;
	width: 5%;
}
th.bbp-forum-reply-count, td.bbp-forum-reply-count {
	text-align: center;
	width: 5%;
}
th.bbp-forum-freshness, td.bbp-forum-freshness {
	text-align: center;
	width: 5%;
}

It was my theme, so if anyone finds this page via a search engine, it probably isn’t to do with bbppress itself, more likely your theme CSS messing it up a bit. Every theme is different so your problem might be different that mine. But don’t go messing round with BBpress, that seems fine, I went though most of the code and Css for it! lol

[Stephen Edgar]

Your going to have to use $args['separator'] = ' '; (Either a blank space or empty) and then use some CSS to style the bbp-forum-list element.

[najum]

I am having trouble trying to resize my forums table cells widths.

The “topics” and “posts” cells that only contain a number don’t need to be the same width as the “forum” and “freshness” cells that contain words and wrap to the next line.

When I look at the table through firebug I just see “.article th, .article td” which is part of my sytle.css and not bbpress.

Any ideas how I can make the cells widths change?

Here is an example of 1 forum I am talking about http://lifeafterlondon.com/forums-2/

Many thanks

Wordpress version: 3.6
bbPress 2.3.2
Site url: http://www.rubycore-ng.com/blog/forum/

I wanted to create a custom bbPress theme, i followed the instructions here:’ Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a Custom bbPress Theme’. Having copied the following assets from the bbpress>template>default folder to my child theme:

1-bbpress folder
2-extras folder
3-js folder
4-bbpress-functions.php

I am still unable to override the styles in the default bbpress.css file.

I would appreciate clues on how to approach this.

Regards.

Hello,

I just set up a basic forum:
http://www.sugarboxing.com/forum/

I would like to ask you gimme some tips on where can I look for solutions to my problems.
I do not mind you writing the solution here, but caring of your time, this is not really expected. Just links would do just fine:

My problems:
Basically I want my forum look more like this one:
http://www.rosstraining.com/forum/ (this gues use phpBB though).

I want
1. all forums (main and single) pages be without a sidebar
2. I want to change the skin somehow, please suggest where can I get some neat custom css I guess
3. I want all sub-forums listed line by line, not like now when they clustered in a line separated by commas
4. Maybe some extra plugins suggstions

I use WP Mantra theme just in case

Thanks in advance!

[Tecca]

In your bbpress.css file you’ll find something like this:

#bbpress-forums p.bbp-topic-meta img.avatar, #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-reply-revision-log img.avatar, #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topic-revision-log img.avatar, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-template-notice img.avatar, #bbpress-forums .widget_display_topics img.avatar, #bbpress-forums .widget_display_replies img.avatar, #bbpress-forums p.bbp-topic-meta img.avatar {
    border: 3px double #DDDDDD;
    float: none;
    margin-bottom: -7px;
}

Add display: inline; to it, and that’ll fix it up for ya.

Hi.
Somehow I managed to make my submit button disappear, while adjusting my child theme. Now it’s not possible to create a new topic nor reply to existing topics. You can submit by hitting return, but of course this is not very handy.

If I change to the parent theme the button is visible. But surely, I want to keep my child theme.
I’ve gone through all the adjusted css and it doesn’t seem as if any buttons has been set to “display:none”.

Can someone please tell me how I get my submit button back?

You can view the test forum here

I’m using WordPress 3.6 and bbpress Version 2.3.2
My child theme is based on Magazine Basic

How can you change the background of posts and the table containing the forum titles? The background of my core wordpress site is okay (I have Responsive theme installed), but the forum area should have a different color, especially the posts. Where can I find the apporpiate code sctions for this in the CSS?

[brianwall99]

The installation instructions end by saing edit your themes css and make it look pretty. But how?

I want the forum part of my WP blog site to look the same font-wise. I am using the latest WP and Responsive theme and latest bbPress.

For some reason, I can not get rid of those damn bullets.
http://www.oostuudio.ee/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/65-bbpres_fkn_bullets.jpg
(I added red marks so you can see the problematic dots/bullets)

I am using bbPress 2.3.2 (installed as plugin via WP admin)

I wasted hours with FF and Chrome dev tool but did not get anywhere.

I am no css master but I was expecting this to fix the problem:

#bbpress-forums ul {
list-style: none outside none;
}
#bbpress-forums li {
list-style: none outside none;
}

I was wrong. It has no effect at all.

So, I need your help to fix this because I can not launch a forum, looking like this: http://www.oostuudio.ee/foorum/f/poletamine/

Thank you

[96fauj]

I’m an absolute novice at any form of programming at all. I don’t know any php and very slightly some css.

The issue i’m having is that the forum isn’t showing up spread across the whole page. It’s showing only in 1 half of the page, it should be showing full like when you go into topics and such.

It can be seen here : http://unitedhumanity.co.uk/?post_type=forum

I’ve spent a few hours now on trying to fix this but no matter what php code I throw in, or whatever css file I copy over in the plugin to theme directories. It’s not working.

Could someone please help me, this is 1 of the very few things left to get sorted on this blog. Would like to thank anyone who contributes in advance.

[vfowler]

It makes sense to show the topic title but not the forum title when in BuddyPress group forums. Plain old CSS won’t do the job of hiding just the Forum title as the same HTML is produced for both forum and topic title.

<div id="bbpress-forums">
<h3>forum or topic title here</h3>
...
</div>

I guess this might require creating child theme files of the relevant section…

Hi everyone

Is there a way of disabling bbpress jquery and css files loading when a user visits the blog?
upon installing bbpress the “weight/loading” of a blog page increases a bit, anyway of disabling it? Only loading when someone visits the forum?

The following code disables the bbpress css, is there a way to disable the javascript/jquery?
Thanks

function mp_deregister_bbstyles() {
if ( function_exists( 'is_bbpress' ) ) {
if ( !is_bbpress() ) {
wp_deregister_style( 'bbp-default-bbpress' ); 
}
}
}
add_action( 'wp_print_styles', 'mp_deregister_bbstyles', 100 );

I have been with bbPress before it was a plugin for WordPress and have to thank all for the efforts and congratulate how far it has gone.
I decided to stick with bbPress after researching many other forums software because of how easy it was to integrate with WordPress.

Since I had some time off from college for the summer I decided to make my own customized theme for the whole site based on what I had. After several days playing with the CSS and a few functions/filters the whole site finally came together.

http://wowlazymacros.com/forums

There is still a few things that I would like to implement, like posts count (which I did but it did not update the numbers, I have to manually repair the forums to keep them updated?) and being able to assign more title ranks (I was able to with Cubepoints but that project seems dead).

Just have a peek at my forums and let me know what you guys think. 🙂

Hi together,

I have two problems, I cannot solve by myself. I spent hours, but didn’t make any progress.

I would really appreciate some help!

Here is a picture, showing the problems:

# Problem one, the red marked “dots”. I really don’t have any idea, how to remove them.

# Problem two, the green marked “forum text”. How can I change “size and color”? I examined the whole CSS file, but couldn’t figure it out.

Thanks in advance!

The two examples you gave are close, but do not actually show what I need, this link is more like what I mean.

But, they did make me realize that the desired hierarchy can be achieved with a combination of css and selecting the right category/forum/topic order, and that the existing three levels (categories/forums/topics) is one too little.

This is what I think is a solution.

1.Create/give parent Categories a name to display as title in a new category header, remove all other data through css from the header, like the “topics” and “freshness” text since this needs to be echoed only in the next level of categories.

2.Create categories in parent category and change functions and css so they show as a list under each other and include topics and hierarchy text.

3.create another level of categories to act as main forums, here we include the freshness-links and topic count.

4.Topics/threads are created inside the fourth level.

5.remove the original bb-header to allow the first level categories to take over this function.

I think this makes sense to me, will have to try tomorrow if this works.

I can not yet make my solution of the freshness-topic-title public since I am working on a theme with this function included, I can not send private messages on the bbpress forum else I would have pm’ed you it as appreciation for your reply.

You can send me a mail and I will send you the code but please keep it to yourself.

Here is a link to a live demo, this is a work in progress and site is not close to finished but you can get an idea of what I did.
