bbPress.org

Hi, I’m attempting to create a general chat page (private for registered users) using bbpress, although not getting very far with it. The goal is to have one chat page where once users are logged in, they can easily make posts in a similar way as they would on a facebook feed page, preferably with the newest posts on top.

I’m using WordPress 3.9.2, and bbPress 2.5.4.

Any advice would be very much appreciated!

Hello, I’ve been searching, and saw mentioned in a post 4 or 5 years old that profile integration between bbPress and BuddyPress might be in the works, but can’t find any recent info or plugins that can help. I’d like some or all of my users’ BuddyPress profile fields to show up beneath their usernames in bbPress forums.

Any links or points in a direction that could be helpful will be appreciated 😀

Also, the @mention functionality on my site is totally unused, since so many users have different display names than their @mentions. I think people would use it if there were at least an option to have that be included beneath their name beside posts, just like it is here at the Official bbPress site.

Hi there,

I have been wandering around for a few days on the internet, spending most of the time as a guest on this bbPress forum.

I am trying to find out a way to expand the very small column containing the bbPress forum in the middle of my website http://2islands.nl/forums/forum/forum-2islands/. To be honest I am a little frustrated to find out kinds of different ways with small pieces of code added here and there in .css and .php files that don’t work for me.

Viewing from what I find in this and other fora, I am not the only one having this problem.

I am not a html programmer, but I can copy and paste very well. 🙂

Can anyone help me get my bbPress on full with (keeping my left sidebar) in a neat way, for instance by editing a bbpress.php file of something like that.

Believe me; i tried at least twenty of the tricks found in this and other fora. Nothing works. Let’s get this over with once and for all :-).

THANKS for any help!

I’m loving bbpress.org layout, especially with the left sidebar. Can anyone post the theme, layout file ?

Hi all. I’m having some problems importing my phpBB forum into bbPress. My forum is quite big, those are my stats:
Posts: 96807 | Topics: 19192 | Users: 9633

During conversion stops here (13601 – 13700)

What can i do?

Thank u

Hello,

I wonder if the plugin let us generate new topics from my private messaging’s contents… Is it possible ? Or did someone knows an alternative to do that ?

Hi guys, I’m pretty new(bie) on WordPress, hope some1 could help me.

I’ve created a little test site here: www.elite-force.it/test

Then, I’ve installed bbpress and I’ve created menu entries with those magical-fantastic short codes.

Everything seems going fine, of course it will need some CSS adjustment but I don’t panic on that… else way I panic because I can’t reach profile page…

My forum is: http://www.elite-force.it/test/forum/
And profile for my user should be: http://www.elite-force.it/test/forums/user/goose/

When I go to my profile page, something strange happen… It seems that bbpress use my homepage php to build the page.. of course result in a home-similar, with a “THESE POSTS ARE BY: ” on top and any other infos…

I read that bbpress look for page.php if there is no bbpress.php on theme root folder, but if I also create a copy of my page.php or post.php doesn’t fix the problem.

Is because that template uses dynamic pages? there is no solution? I mean, There is no way to override bbpress page settings and make a different view for the profile page?

Please… help those noob

Sorry, I am sure this has been answered but I cannot find an answer to it through google etc.

I want to give my forum roles a bit of a better look, like a little box around them that has a different fill color.

I cant really find a great example, but when I look at rc groups, in the bottom corner it says their status, like admin/moderator etc.

anyways, I am pretty new to wordpress but I have a child theme and custom style.css

Thank You,

Sorry if this has been answered but I was not able to find this in my search.

1. Can PHPBB topic views be imported into bbPress?
2. How can they be displayed instead of voices?

Thanks in advance for your help. Would really appreciate knowing how to make this possible.

Thanks,

I’m attempting to log into the codex to help with documentation. I always show as anonymous on the codex pages and the log in link goes to BuddyPress. I log in there and end up on the BuddyPress support forum instead of being redirected back. If I come back manually and refresh the page, I am still not logged in.

I have tried logging in on WordPress.org to see if that carries over, but not luck. Obviously, I’m logged into the support forum now to post this.

I’ve also tried clearing cookies and tested with multiple browsers with no change either.
