Hello,

I have a client who want to make changes to the main text from front page. The text is located in front-page.php and is easy for somebody to do manually edit, however that function would be great.

In WordPress I would create a custom field and call it there but not sure how it works in BBpress. Will work via a custom plugin or the function.php?

Thanks in advance for your help here!

So, nobody does not know how to do this?

Any direction would be helpful.

It seems that there is an easy way to do that.

Add the text in options at tagline and call the code on front page only:

<p>

<?php if ( bb_get_option(‘description’) ) : ?><p class=”description”><?php bb_option(‘description’); ?></p><?php endif; ?>

</p>

I also have put together an small plugin which could offer an WYSIWYG editor for formatting purposes.
