Okay I found the code which is on this site actually.

click here

But the code mentioned:

if (is_bbpress()) :
div class=”abc”
else :
div class=”xyz”
endif;

Still would not make sense to everyone. So I’m thinking the first part is the main part. After the colon you would change the div class to whatever you want change which would be some of the classes mentioned in this thread to another class that you create which simply just changes the font size.

I’m thinking this way you would have to create your own classs for each thing you want to change in bbpress whether it was the reply text, the header text, or the content text. If I am off a bit or a lot just chime in. Hope it helps.

Getting bbpress to work with the many very clever (too clever!) themes is not always easy

Ok, we could spend a lot of time getting a forum specific sidebar for your theme, but maybe easiest to get your sidebar working to display in bbpress

so install widget logic

https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/

Then set up whatever sidebar is being displayed on the bbpress page for all the widgets that you want it to display, both for the homepage and bbpress

Then you’ll see each widget now has a widget logic condition.

For items you want to display only on bbpress add the logic

is_bbpress()

For items say only on a home page add

is_home()

for items you want on all pages apart from bbpress use

!is_bbpress()

Come back if anything is not clear

[Robin W]

ok, this is not my strong area, but try making this as your bbpress.php page

<?php 

get_header(); // Loads the header.php template. ?>
 
	<?php if ( is_bbpress() ) { ?>
 
		<header class="entry-header">
			<h1 class="entry-title"><?php single_post_title(); ?></h1>
			<?php echo apply_atomic_shortcode( 'entry_byline', '<div class="entry-byline">' . __( 'Published by [entry-author] on [entry-published] [entry-comments-link before=" | "] [entry-edit-link before=" | "]', 'spine2' ) . '</div>' ); ?>
		</header><!-- .entry-header -->
 
		<?php while( have_posts() ): the_post(); ?>
 
			<?php the_content(); ?>
 
		<?php endwhile; ?>
 
 
		<footer class="entry-footer">
			<?php echo apply_atomic_shortcode( 'entry_meta', '<div class="entry-meta">' . __( '[entry-terms before="Posted in " taxonomy="category"] [entry-terms before="| Tagged "]', 'spine2' ) . '</div>' ); ?>
		</footer><!-- .entry-footer -->
 
	<?php } else { ?>
	<div id="content" class="hfeed">
 
		<?php get_template_part( 'loop-meta' ); // Loads the loop-meta.php template. ?>
 
		<?php get_template_part( 'loop' ); // Loads the loop.php template. ?>
 
		<?php get_template_part( 'loop-nav' ); // Loads the loop-nav.php template. ?>
 
	</div><!-- #content -->
 
<?php get_footer(); // Loads the footer.php template. ?>

this is a widget logic problem, but try

!is_page(‘page_name’) || (is_single() && !is_bbpress())

if not, then try the support page, but is not well responded to

https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/widget-logic

[Mareva]

Hi!
Thank you for the !is_bbpress() code, that works perfectly with Widget Logic plugin.
My trouble is: I’d like to specify more that one condition, e.g :
!is_page(‘page_name’) || !is_bbpress()

Unfortunatly, !is_bbpress code is not interpreted anymore when using this condition (the widget appears in the sidebar of all pages of the forum).
Any idea about what I should do to make it work?

[aborruso]

Hi all,
I know that there are several post about it, but I’m not able to find a solution for my forum.
It’s password proteceted and I cannot send you any link.

– I have WordPress 3.9.1 and bbpress 2.5.4
– I use Twenty Eleven (I know it’s a bad theme for bbpress)
– I have copied the content of /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default folder in my theme folder
– I have edited all the php files of my /wp-content/themes/mytheme/bbpress folder and commented “get_sidebar()” function
– I have created forum.php and bbpress.php file starting from page.php template and commented “get_sidebar()” function

But I have always the sidebar (below bbpress).

If I use this code

function disable_all_widgets( $sidebars_widgets ) {       
    if ( function_exists('is_bbpress') ) {
        if (is_bbpress()) {
            $sidebars_widgets = array(false);
            remove_all_actions('bp_register_widgets');
            unregister_sidebar( 'bp_core_widgets' );
        }
    }
    return $sidebars_widgets;
}

add_filter('sidebars_widgets', 'disable_all_widgets', 1, 1);

all the widgets disappear, but I have always meta links.

I know I should change theme. Do you have some tips for this one?

Thank you,

Andrea

getting it to display is easy !

bbpress deosn’t use ‘the content’ function in its loops, so we need to hook to the bbpress content function which is bbp_get_reply_content

So you just add a second filter after line 15, this then puts the ratings in the display

{
    add_filter('the_content', 'spr_filter', 15);
	add_filter ('bbp_get_reply_content', 'spr_filter') ;
}

Then the next bit of the plugins code looks at whether we have an individual post/page or are in a loop – a list of pages/posts.

If just one (is_singular) then it will display the rating, and let you add one.
If in a loop then it simply displays, and doesn’t let you alter, or that’s what I think it’s doing

so to get it to understand that we’re in a list of replies (ie loop-single-reply) we test that we’re in bbpress

so we add a test for bbpress into the first function viz

foreach ($list as $list_)
    {
        if (is_bbpress() )
        {
            if ($options['position']=='before')
            {
                $content=spr_rating().$content;
            }
            elseif ($options['position']=='after')
            {
                $content .= spr_rating();
			
            }
            break;
        }
		if (is_singular($list_)&&$options['where_to_show'][$list_]&&$disable_rating!='1')

Ok so that does the display (at the moment for both topics and replies, but that’s easily fixed later)

What I can’t work out quite is why the amend doesn’t work. I think it is because the javascript/ajax is using spr_rate, but expects that to be part of $_post, but that’s may be failing as we are sort of in a bbpress loop at that stage, not in an individual post, so I dontl know what’s it looking for as post_id.

Anyway I’m rubbish at ajax/js etc. so am just poking code in the hope of finding a fix.

So that’s as far as I’ve got for now !!

[Robin W]

you could try adding the following to your functions file

add_filter( 'd4p_is_bbpress', '__return_true' );

or seeing if your theme or other plugins are affecting

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Short question: How do I check if I’m on a page (or blog) from within ‘loop-single-reply.php’?

WP 3.8.3
bbpress 2.5.3
URL: 24baby.nl

Long question: I use bbpress for all my comments on articles and blogs: ‘Use a bbPress forum topic for comments on this post.’

On my website this generates a first post along the lines of (my website is in Dutch): ‘This topic belongs to article <LINK>. Share your thoughts!’

This text is visible both under the actual article and on the forums. While it’s a good way to explain the purpose of the thread on the forums, it’s confusing as the first reply on the actual article page. Because of that I don’t want to show this first reply on all my blog / page ‘pages’, but do want to show them on the forums.

It’s fairly easy to remove the first reply within ‘loop-replies.php’, but I don’t know how to test whether I’m on the forums or not? Is_page doesn’t work, is_bbpress always returns true.

[nirgalo]

Hi, I am using is_bbpress() in page.php to check whether I am in a bbPress context. It seems BuddyPress and bbPress are sharing the same profile page. Therefore, when the latter is being displayed, bbPress is being defined, and this triggers wrong behavior in my code. So, how can I check a bbPress or BuddyPress profile page is being displayed so I can fix my code? thx.

[SooperGenius]

is_bbpress() almost works. Thanks for the pointer there, by the way. I can’t see how I missed that function in all my searching. I failed my Google-fu obviously. My code now looks like this in the my-plugin.php file.

function forum_lock_check($allcaps, $cap) {
	if (function_exists("is_bbpress")) {
		$is_bbpress = is_bbpress();
	} else {
		$is_bbpress = false;
	}
	
	return $allcaps;
}

add_filter("user_has_cap", "forum_lock_check", 10, 3); 

Here’s the funny part. (Funny = weird not Funny = haha) If I’m navigating to the main forums page (http://localhost/wordpress/forums/), then everything proceeds swimmingly. If I then navigate to a forum within the page (http://localhost/wordpress/forums/forum.forum-a) or to a thread within the forum (http://localhost/wordpress/forums/topic/post-1) I then get several of the following errors.

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\query.php on line 3792

Notice: Undefined property: WP_Query::$post in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\query.php on line 3306

Commenting out the “$is_ppbress = is_bbpress();” line removes the errors but I’ve got no idea why WordPress suddenly doesn’t like the code. Have you seen this before? What file is is_bbpress() in?

Thanks, Robin.

[Robin W]

is_bbpress()

should do it I think.

Otherwise bbpress has custom post types of forum, topic and reply.

You should also consider disabling or modifying the bbpress search function, as otherwise searches will go forum wide, giving a backdoor.

Good luck !

[Robin W]

Think it’s as simple as

is_bbpress()

so try

<div class="breadcrumbs">
    if(function_exists('bcn_display') && is_bbpress())
{
bcn_display();
}</div>

Haven’t checked the syntax, I’ll let you do that

[Robin W]

presume you are using the code is_bbpress() in your widget logic?

[Robin W]

the answer is probably yes – a forum post is a post

You might do better to install bbPress WP Tweaks Widget Logic plugin which gives you a forum specific sidebar

alternately (or additionally) use widget logic where you can use code like is_bbpress()or the negative !is_bbpress()to control where widgets are shown

[cdonahue]

Solved!

Added this code to the bottom of my ‘page’ template, as that appears to be the default page for bbpress:

if (is_bbpress()) {
get_sidebar(forum);
} ?>

et voila.

[piccart]

Hi guys! sorry but I forgot to pin the notifications for this post so I just realized about your replies..

it wasn’t very technical actually, but I think it depends a lot on the theme you have.

if just added a conditional into the class of my page template main content and of the sidebar wrap:

<?php if (is_bbpress() || is_page('forum')){ echo "forum_layout"; } ?>

it will have to be added something like this:

<div class="grid__item main float--left <?php if (is_bbpress() || is_page('forum')){ echo "forum_layout"; } ?>">

then is all about css, so it depends on yours. but you should be able to override the interested divs, appending your .forum_layout class in this way:

.grid__item.main.forum_layout {
	width:76%;

}

.grid__item.sidebar.forum_layout {
	width:24%;

}

then at the same you can override the normal layout fonts, colours, etc.. if something is not considering your new style, try adding !important in this way:

width:24% !important;

hope that’ll help! 😉

[Stephen Edgar]

There are numerous ways of doing this:

You can use a conditional to check is_bbpress()

Make some copies of your templates for example and make a copy of page.php file and rename it to bbpress.php and call a specific sidebar template eg bbpress-sidebar.php from your bbpress.php template.

[inspirationally]

After deactivating all bbPress related Plugins, it still occured. Now I removed the functions.php and it seems to have stopped and I’m re-adding it one snippet after the other, but I always have to wait half an hour between each snippet to see if it continues. No idea how to test it “immediately”.

It might be something about this part:

//Remove bbPress Head on non bbPress sites

add_action( 'wp_head', 'conditional_bbpress_head', 9 );
function conditional_bbpress_head(){
global $post;
if( !is_bbpress() && !(is_home() && $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] == 'deppheads.com') && !(isset( $post->post_parent ) && $post->post_parent == "17123") )
remove_action( 'wp_head', 'bbp_head' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'conditional_bbpress_scripts', 9 );
function conditional_bbpress_scripts(){
global $post;
if( !is_bbpress() && !(is_home() && $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] == 'deppheads.com') && !(isset( $post->post_parent ) && $post->post_parent == "17123") )

remove_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'bbp_enqueue_scripts' );
}


which I added because I have two domains running and just one little part under the domain deppheads is actually the forum, and I did not want all that bbPress code in all sites, especially not on my main site.
Is that possible??

[Robin W]

ok, plan b

upload the “widget logic” plugin

This lets you set widgets to appear in certain conditions

Once uploaded, using your normal sidebar, you can set when a widget appears

You’ll see a new box appear when you add/edit each widget saying “widget logic”. if you want it to appear on a forum page type

is_bbpress()
If you want the widget to appear on other pages, but not obn the forum page type

!is_bbpress()
so you login widget would have the logic

is_bbpress()
and appear only on forum pages

If you didn’t want search on the forum page, you’d put

!is_bbpress()
on that widget and it will not appear

[Sloppy Buns]

I have worked part of this out and have implemented a is_bbpress format for forum pages so I can choose what sidebars to put on my forum pages however I am still not able to get sidebars to show up on profile or most popular topics.

What I require is the is_ codex for these pages so I can write a script to place sidebars on these pages, I have found that the User profile has these html body classes:
bbp-user-page single singular bbpress
is_bbpress() does not work

and Most Popular Topics:
bbp-view bbpress

This should be is_bbpress() however is_bbpress() does not work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Lynqoid]

I’m not 100% on what is happening without seeing a site link, if you can find out where the coupons are being rendered then you could wrap them in if(!is_bbpress()) { }

[pmuktan]

I pasted this code under main wp-config.php and side is gone.
function disable_all_widgets( $sidebars_widgets ) {
if ( function_exists(‘is_bbpress’) ) {
if (is_bbpress()) {
$sidebars_widgets = array(false);
remove_all_actions(‘bp_register_widgets’);
unregister_sidebar( ‘bp_core_widgets’ );
}
}
return $sidebars_widgets;
}

add_filter(‘sidebars_widgets’, ‘disable_all_widgets’, 1, 1);

My question is how do we remo Options like Topic Type and Topic Status ???

Thank you.

[Robin W]

you can use ‘widget logic’ plugin to control what is shown in sidebars. for bbpress the logic is

is_bbpress() to display and
!is_bbpress() to hide

or if you want a forum specific sidebar use ‘bbpress WP’ tweaks plugin.

Profile images use the gravatar image see http://en.gravatar.com/ for details

[Stephen Edgar]

The main bbPress conditional tag is is_bbpress

Try <?php if ( !is_bbpress ) : ?>
