Ok, I’ll try to be clearer, and ask one question at a time. How exactly should I modify the default theme CSS if I want to have a latest replies list displayed before the forums list, at the root level?

Please explain in terms “open this file and insert/change that”. I’m still a bit lost understanding what is where.

hi, i wanted to made some tabs where i can show, the latest topics, most visited and most comented, so I wonder if there out there a plugin that can show this.

Thanks

[Jared Atchison]

Without the URL I can’t test out anything, hence I can’t answer your question.

[Bluealek]

Is there a way to add a latest posts list to the forum root level in bbPress 2, just the way I had it in the standalone 1.1 forum (example http://www.stazeibogaze.info/bbpress/)?

Question two – what php line of code should I use when I want to include the bbPress Reply List widget content into a page (not as a widget, but into the main body)?

i deactivated maintenance mode now and here is the link to the view:

I ended up having to do the same. I made two forums just now. 1 for Announcements and the other just a test forum. The test forum works, and the topics in the announcements work, bu the announcements forum doesn’t. sigh…

Might of been answered before but I cant seem to find it on the boards. I apologize if this is common, I might of not used the best wording.

I installed bbPress on a test wordpress running 3.2.1 (or most current). Installed just fine and I proceeded to test it from a users perspective. I added a login and register links and pages, work just fine. However when I login or register, the function will login or create a user but the new URL causes a 404.

I’m using XAMPP on my personal machine and the directory of my wordpress install is

localhost/wep/wordpress

That works just fine as it should. However the URL that returns on successful login or registration displays as :

localhost/wep/wordpress/wep/wordpress/login/

which obviously throws a 404 as it’s non existant.

I had a phpbb install in the wordpress folder before I installed bbPress and believe I might of changed the folder path on install. I tried deleting bbPress to reinstall but it just gives me an activate/deactivate/delete option.

I’m assuming there’s somewhere in the plugin I can change that root folder pathing or whatever configuration is causing this error but I’m unsure of what and where.

Any help is appreciated.

I’m using the latest version of WP now. It was giving me the same error befoe and after I updated WP.

[baldg0at]

I’d be interested to know how to get latest posts to paginate too.

Thanks

Thanks a lot for your help and time dude, I will try make some test about what you say, then I back for tell you if work.

I almost have this forum completed, but the profile page just doesnt look good using WooThemes Canvas – Theme.

Also the css for the original post is different than the reply posts. Its adding buttons to links, quotes, and the avatar.

Any idea of how to solve this? Ive searched and searched all night, but I cant find a solution.

Here is my test site.

Oh, this is if I’m using the bbPress “integrated” with BuddyPress. As in I installed bbPress through BuddyPress. It seems this muddies the waters a bit. I think I’ll just wait

[root@test plugins]# find . -name bbpress

./buddypress/bp-forums/bbpress

./bbpress

./bbpress/bbp-theme-compat/bbpress

./bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/bbpress

[root@test plugins]# ls buddypress/bp-forums/

bb-config.php bp-forums-bbpress.php bp-forums-loader.php

bbpress bp-forums-bbpress-sa.php bp-forums-screens.php

bp-forums-actions.php bp-forums-filters.php bp-forums-template.php

bp-forums-admin.php bp-forums-functions.php

OK — I did all that and can see the plugins/bbpress folder in Filezilla. The problem is, I can’t see it in the “plugins” page on WordPress to activate it, and the site is otherwise not recognizing it (pages I had with shortcodes aren’t working).

Sigh. I’m testing it on wavychick.com, which is a dev site for my dev site, if that makes sense.

Hi guys,

I installed the latest version of WordPress, then used the ‘Plugins’ search to install BuddyPress, and then within the /Forums/ section I installed bbPress.

Everything is working wonderfully, except when anyone posts on the forums it doesn’t update their activity feed:

http://buddypress.p-h1.com/community/topic/this-is-my-first-topic/

And here is the admin activity page:

http://buddypress.p-h1.com/members/admin/

Is there anything I can do to fix this? It’s the one remaining piece of functionality I’d like to be working.

[Jared Atchison]

2.1 can be downloaded by going to this page https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/plugin and clicking download zip archive at the bottom of the page – is this the one you downloaded from earlier?

Keep in mind that 2.1 is not quite final (although stable from my testing) so it would be wise to do a backup before the upgrade if you are doing it in a production environment.

I’m actually the author of bbPress Genesis Extend. If you are using 2.0.x you actually dont need Genesis Extend (unless you want some of the new features) because bbPress 2.0.x has limited Genesis compatibility built into it.

This jacoby wont answer simple questions, but responds to the slightest insult. LOL

whatever bud, the plug in is full of headaches and ya know it.

I am having some problems generating a forum index page.

Once I created my forums I thought that by adding the url http://cyclistzone.com/vozcycling/forums/ to the menu I would be in business. Going to the url shows a featured article and the bbPress sidebar, not a forum index.

Since I did not get a forum index I created a new page and named it Forums. I then pasted the shortcode [bbp-forum-index] into the body of the page and nothing changed. The same results were displayed as if I did not have a page. Almost seems like bbPress ignored my page.

Here is the link to the page…

http://cyclistzone.com/vozcycling/forums/

The next thing I did was to create another page and name it “Test Forum.” I inserted the shortcode and this page displayed a forum index for me.

http://cyclistzone.com/vozcycling/test-forum/

The problem I am having now is that the slug “test-forum” only relates to this page and not to any of the forum pages because the slug “test-forum” does not exist in the bbPress settings. Those settings use the slug “forums/forum”. If I change the “forums” slug to “test-forum” I end up back to my original problem.

I would like to leave my slugs defaulted to their original values. I just want a forum index page using the bbPress slugs and have a bbPress sidebar.

This is probably simple, but I have not figured it out yet, so I hope someone can shed some light on what I am doing wrong.

Thanks,

Rhek

In theory this should work with bbPress as well, but it has not been confirmed or tested.

[ddlg2007]

I continued to do some tests but continues to do the same. I have asked in the support forum wordpress theme, but nobody has any idea. So I’m giving up, I do not know what else to do.

Hi there,

We just installed bbPress 2.0.2 on the latest version of WordPress. Everything is working great, except that when someone subscribes to a topic they never receive the email notifications. Regular WordPress notifications (such as new user registration) work fine. Any idea what’s wrong? The only other plugins we have are small things like random quote widget and weather widget.

Thanks!

[nosdk]

I’ve just installed bbpress and it looks great. I seem to some sort of problem. When some post a reply to the first post i looks strange…

LINK: http://www.neworleanssaints.dk/Forums/emne/test-trad/#post-3573

WordPress vers: 3.3.1

bbpress: 2.0.2

[harnold007]

My installation instructions.

1. Installed plugin and activated in WordPress.

2. Copied the contents of /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-theme-compat/ into my themes root folder /wp-content/themes/YOURTHEMENAME/

3. Modified bbpress.css in /wp-content/themes/YOURTHEMENAME/css/

4. Put in this line in my header.php <link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘template_directory’); ?>/css/bbpress.css”>

5. Modified my page.php in /wp-content/themes/YOURTHEMENAME/ (please note if you have any other pages using page.php in your theme modifying this file will also modify those pages utilizing this wordpress page template). I modified it so my forum would be full width without the sidebar. This will vary depending on your theme.

6. Created my forums in my wordpress admin panel under the forum section.

7. Tested, everything is working great!

[Jared Atchison]

It looks OK to me but I rarely mess with stuff like this.

If your site is still under development, you may consider upgrade bbPress to 2.1 (currently in testing). It has some new theming features and auto-detection in place.

In 2.1 it should automatically find those files without needing to put anything in your functions.php.

If you do choose to try 2.1, since it is “beta” at the moment make sure and back up everything first just to be safe.

I would like to moderate all forum posts before they are published..

We all know the amount of spam out there and how this can impact the image of a forum. People can get offended, they can click on bad quality links, search engines could penalize your site cause of the presence of bad outgoing links etc. etc. The simple solution would be to have an option to moderate posts before they are published.

But surprisingly enough, it is not there and there seems to be no way to activate such a feature except if you are some coding genius. No pugins (that work with the latest version) or any simple workaround or am I missing something?

Is there any way this can be achieved or is this an impossibility for someone whoz not too good with coding?
