Hi,

i want to configure bbPress on my own theme. I am looking for a list of functions like https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference just for bbPress. Where can I find this?

Thank you!

I thought we had one, but can’t find it.

The best way into bbpress is to start with the templates – these are the most likely thing you’ll want to alter, and placing amended ones in a ‘bbpress’ folder in your theme will make weordpress use these instead.

so go to

bbpress/templates/default/bbress/content-archive-forum.php

This is the first template called, and all the functions and templates you want to use will cascade from here.

Bump. Would love an actually complete codex to help guide theme development.
https://codex.bbpress.org/developer/ 🙁

would love to find the time to write it!!

Like all open software bbpress relies on users to make it successful, and I’m not a bbpress author, just a user who got into it, and I wrote much of the ‘getting started’ guide as I installed my first bbpress site.

If you want to help, then as above the key start point is the templates. Mapping these into a user understandable chart would be a great start, so go to

bbpress/templates/default/bbress/content-archive-forum.php

Because there seems not a complete list, is there for forum list page something like bbp_is_single_topic()

I would like to add some conditional code for https://www.sanaristikkofoorumi.net/wordpress/forums/ .
i quessed that it might be “bbp_is_forum_list()”
