Hi,
I’ve been working on integrating bbpress into my WP site (blog), and have just completed the deep integration between the two (i.e. changing the old ‘get header’ tags in all the template files, etc). However, the forum portion of my forum page is all messed up. I assume that it has something to do with the style.css file somewhere? I’m just guessing though.
I’ve searched for, found, and tried literally dozens of different resources to try and figure out what’s wrong but I’m just not finding any help.
All I’m looking to do is basically create a bbpress forum that looks the same as my WP pages. I’ve got the look and feel of my WP pages into the bbpress forum, but the actual forum part is just messed up. Can someone help me out??
My website is http://www.edcreviews.com
The forum page is http://www.edcreviews.com/forum
Thanks!
I´ve modifyed Kakumei to the limit of my knowledge. See yourself at http://www.michaeljackson.no/forum
However, if I want to turn it into something different, I think the CSS is kind of clumsy made.
If you change width on one thing – you have to change it on something like ten other definitions too. Width of content, background, padding, corners etc etc.
So is there some other simplistic theme out there thats coded in a more unified way? Let´s say I want to change the size of the forum, I only want to input this ONCE, and have everything else fall in place automatically.
I know this is possible with CSS, by using percentage in sizes, instead of static pixel definitions.
Where can I find more BBPress themes anyway?
A few people have expressed concerns about the growing number of template files included with the bbp-twentyten theme. Not counting CSS/JS/Images, we’re up to 32 individual template files to handle forums, topics, replies, loops, forms, users, and pagination. These concerns are totally valid, but mostly unavoidable.
The goal for bbp-twentyten is for it to be as simple to understand as possible without tons of proprietary functions or complex logic to figure out. To do that, we’ve split some of the files into ‘parts’ that focus on specific functionalities. Some of this doesn’t make a whole lot of sense right now because of lack of documentation, and it uses functions that are new to WordPress as of 3.0, but I’m confident it’s the best way to go.
When I think back to my beginning days of learning WordPress, a lot of what I did was butcher Kubrick and make my own frankentheme. I’m trying to keep that in mind here. Since the first place people naturally make changes is on the front end of their site, this theme should make that really easy to do.
We also have an empty folder for a theme named ‘bbp-default’ which will more than likely be a full-featured theme that flexes a bit more bbPress muscle.
I think when bbPress has more eyes on the code and more developers start integrating forum files into their themes, we’ll see some really neat things start to happen.
For specific topics and post you can use:
get_topic_id();post_id();Here you’ll find the incomplete documentation:
https://bbpress.org/documentation/template-tags
But I think for posts and topics there must be another, better solution. No one wants to write their own CSS definition for each ID.
Maybe it is better to use a term from the tagging to create the unique look of some Posts.

Ok – here is a small “solution”
For a specific forum you can use this code.
Put this in the front-page-php:
id="forum_<?php echo get_forum_id()?>"_________________________________
Here is the example with the standard theme kakumei
<?php if ( bb_forums() ) : ?>
<h2><?php _e('Forums'); ?></h2>
<table id="forumlist">
<tr>
<th><?php _e(‘Main Theme’); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Topics’); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>
</tr>
<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>
<?php if (bb_get_forum_is_category()) : ?>
<tr<?php bb_forum_class(‘bb-category’); ?> id=”forum_<?php echo get_forum_id()?>”>
<td colspan=”3″><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘<div class=”nest”>’ ); ?>“><?php forum_name(); ?><?php forum_description( array( ‘before’ => ‘<small> – ‘, ‘after’ => ‘</small>’ ) ); ?><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘</div>’ ); ?></td>
</tr>
<?php continue; endif; ?>
<tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?> id=”forum_<?php echo get_forum_id()?>>
<td><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘<div class=”nest”>’ ); ?>“><?php forum_name(); ?><?php forum_description( array( ‘before’ => ‘<small> – ‘, ‘after’ => ‘</small>’ ) ); ?><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘</div>’ ); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><?php forum_topics(); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><?php forum_posts(); ?></td>
</tr>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</table>
<?php endif; // bb_forums() ?>
So you can style with CSS the background and the font-color.
eg.
#forum_1 {background-color: #ddd; color: #333}Ok – here is a small “solution”

<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>
</tr>
<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>
<?php if (bb_get_forum_is_category()) : ?>
<tr<?php bb_forum_class(‘bb-category’); ?> id=”forum_<?php echo get_forum_id()?>”>
<td colspan=”3″><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘<div class=”nest”>’ ); ?>“><?php forum_name(); ?><?php forum_description( array( ‘before’ => ‘<small> – ‘, ‘after’ => ‘</small>’ ) ); ?><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘</div>’ ); ?></td>
</tr>
<?php continue; endif; ?>
<tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?> id=”forum_<?php echo get_forum_id()?>>
<td><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘<div class=”nest”>’ ); ?>“><?php forum_name(); ?><?php forum_description( array( ‘before’ => ‘<small> – ‘, ‘after’ => ‘</small>’ ) ); ?><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘</div>’ ); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><?php forum_topics(); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><?php forum_posts(); ?></td>
</tr>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</table>
<?php endif; // bb_forums() ?>
So you can style with CSS the background and the font-color.
eg.
#forum_1 {background-color: #ddd; color: #333}I want to highlight background and font properties for a specific forum in front page, with the flow of other forums by css control.
If you are user of freelacer site. you can easily understand this question.
See the example – Screenshot
It would be also great if possible to highlight specific post or topic.
in my case what I need – See the other Screenshot
Thanks
