I am trying to have the forum lists on the side, I was able to put it on the side but it’s not displaying any post or topic count. I want it to look like this site: http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/

The first 22 lines of my front-page.php:

<?php bb_get_header(); ?>

<?php if ( $forums ) : ?>

<div id=”hottags”>

<table id=”forumlist”>

<tr>

<th><?php _e(‘Forum’); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Topics’); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>

</tr>

<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>

<tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘<div class=”nest”>’ ); ?>“><?php forum_name(); ?><small><?php forum_description(); ?></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>

</div>

Thanks for any help.

Why not contact them?

http://www.howtogeek.com/contact/

HowToGeek is an active member here, as well.

Isn’t trying to get help from the developers of the bbpress the best place to get information? Isn’t that the whole point of the forum? In howtogeek contact page, he discourages to contact him directly…

Anyways, I fixed the stupid mistake (from my part), I only copied the table instead of the php entry. So it’s fixed.

Thanks.

I can’t speak for the developers or HowToGeek, but I think the best place to get help with something is from someone who has done it.

In any case, glad you solved your issue.
