bbPress.org

Hi there,

I have bbPress but the thing is I can’t fix the page width,
I did it successfuly with the home page of the forum but now
I want to do the same with the topic page, I still see widgets on the left which is annoying.
I don’t know why bbPress guys can’t fix that, it’s been a problem for many people, so please can you help me make the topic page large (full-width)..
I’m good with HTML and CSS, so if you can just tell me which file I should edit…
(I’m not talking about the forum main page I already fixed the width for it, I’m talking about the topic pages.)
Thanks alot!

How can I format the # of topics and posts of sub-forums so that they don’t appear in parentheses separated by commas but rather are listed in the columns labeled “Topics” and “Posts”?

I have a weird bug going on with my Static Homepage.

We are using the plugin called Store Locator (https://wordpress.org/plugins/store-locator-le/) to show office locations. It’s a fairly simple plugin called by a shortcode in a page to display a map and list of offices.

When I installed bbPress in addition to this Store Locator plugin, my static homepage was no longer working and my homepage reverted to a generic list of recent posts. (The static page was set in all settings correctly).

This happens on every theme, including twentyfourteen, only when both plugins are activated at the same time.

Is there any hook or reason that these two plugins would affect the static homepage?

Thank you!

Thanks Stephen Edgar for the help, in request by him, I am posting this here and starting this new topic:

disable front end editing

So basically on the forum, when someone clicks edit my profile at the top of the page, it goes to the backend. Even though, it would be preferable to go to the front end. Currently, the only way a user can go to the front end is by clicking their name next to a post or in a topic/replies sequence.

I am using the mesocolumn theme and am new to wordpress. site: www.astronomertalk.com

I also moved template-full-width.php, to my child theme, and called it bbpress.php. After doing this, nothing has changed except now the forum specific sidebar, that came with the theme, does not show up.

Source code from bbpress.php:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Full Width
*/
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php do_action( 'bp_before_content' ); ?>
<!-- CONTENT START -->
<div class="content full-width">
<div class="content-inner">

<?php do_action( 'bp_before_blog_home' ); ?>

<!-- POST ENTRY -->
<div id="post-entry">
<section class="post-entry-inner">

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?><?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<article <?php post_class('post-single page-single'); ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

<h1 class="post-title entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>

<div class="post-content">
<div class="entry-content"><?php the_content( __('...Continue reading', TEMPLATE_DOMAIN) ); ?></div>
<?php wp_link_pages('before=<div id="page-links">&after=</div>'); ?>

</div><!-- POST CONTENT END -->

</article>

<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php comments_template(); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'lib/templates/result' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

</section>
</div>
<!-- POST ENTRY END -->

<?php do_action( 'bp_after_blog_home' ); ?>

</div><!-- CONTENT INNER END -->
</div><!-- CONTENT END -->

<?php do_action( 'bp_after_content' ); ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Thank You,

This is the HiddenCity website that I want to rebuild completely in WordPress/bbPress.
http://ecopsi.org/

This is plain a vanilla copy of Twenty Ten theme modified with the bbPress forum plugin.
http://ecopsi.org/journal/

I started out with html/css/javascript to skin the domain it’s loaded on. With WordPress added on a few years later and the bbPress added last year. To say the least I am not happy with the result. My work is conceptually flawed and poorly executed. The only good thing is that I learned a lot about WordPress and bbPress.

With the 2015 presentation of a rebuilt HiddenCity website I intend to adopt the style of Montezuma theme while keeping the data and livery (colors and logo). The following link is an example of how I want the prototype bbPress forums on my personal site to look except with the Montezuma theme. After I’ve got it worked out on my personal site I’ll use what I’ve learned to upgrade the HiddenCity site.
http://cultivators-forum.com/forum/growers-forums/

This is the only part that I’m not sure is possible. I want to make the following modifications.

• forum topic to be the posts
• categories to be forums
• comments are replace by replies to the post

In this case the the beginning of the last three or four replies showing with the topic again which appears as a post. The unregistered User can only see a static page and a forum for newcomers. I shouldn’t have to do anything to the Montezuma theme aside from the mods needed to make WordPress/bbPress execute the list above and tweak its colors to match the corporate livery of The HiddenCity Foundation.

Thank you.

PS — I don’t mind compensating someone for their time and attention in order to get this done.

I am using bbPress and Buddypress.
My forums are tied in with Buddypress groups.
If the user has not joined a Group, then he cannot post a reply in the group forum and the message at the bottom of the thread says “You cannot reply to this topic”

I would like to alter the text string to something more informative like “You cannot reply to this topic unless you Join the Group”

Can anyone tell me the relevant section in the bbPress plugin which handles this?
I tried looking but could not find it.

Thanks.

Hi! One of participants of my forum blog warned me, that he can see all the emails of other notified participants in the emails he receives, because they are in the Cc category and not in Bcc.
Does anyone know this problem? How would I achieve that everyone (except noreply@gblogname.com) was in the Bcc field?
Thanks!

Hi folks,
As you all know, the plugin bbP Signature received it’s last update almost two years ago. I’m not actively updating the plugin, though I recently stumbled upon a WordPress mailing list thread regarding abandoned plugins, and I thought of writing this post.

If any of you guys are looking forward to contribute to the plugin, I can provide you with commit access, so that the plugin is live.

The source is also available on GitHub, so you can even make pull requests.
