bbPress.org

While adjusting the topics/reply color for my site, I seem to run into a bit of a snag with trying to change the admin links coloring. I’m using Catch Evolution for a theme and as such there is a area in options to put custom css code. This is what I have thus far:
” #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-header, #bbpress-forums a.bbp-admin-links { color: #404040; }
”
I do plan on having admin links a different color, I just tossed it in there to test to make sure it’s correct/changes.

Is there a way to limit how many topics show up with this shortcode? Fifteen is a little too much for our site.

Sorry if this is somewhere else, I couldn’t find it.

Hello, I have the same problem after upgrading from 2.3.2 to 2.5.4. I’ve tried different themes and had the same issue on all.

I found that changing the Forum Root from forums to something else fixed the issue. This might help identify root cause.

Hi,

i dident find a new version of BBpress Standalone. So i install WordPress an add BBPress via Plugin.
First my URL look like these:
Forum-Root = http://forum.domain.de/forums/forum/
Forum-Forums = http://forum.domain.de/forums/forum/test1/
Forum-Tropic = http://forum.domain.de/forums/topic/ins-herz-zuerst/
;-(
But after deaktivate (Prefix all forum content with the Forum Root slug (Recommended))
it lock like
Forum-Root = http://forum.domain.de/forum/
Forum-Forums = http://forum.domain.de/forum/test1/
Forum-Tropic = http://forum.domain.de/topic/ins-herz-zuerst/

This look better but i dident want to use WP as CMS oder Blog. I only want a root install.
Look like
Forum-Root = http://forum.domain.de/
Forum-Forums = http://forum.domain.de/test1/
Forum-Tropic = http://forum.domain.de/topic/ins-herz-zuerst/
is there a way to do that?

Hi guys,

I was hoping you could help me out here, first up I’m working with BBPress V2.5.4.

I’m building a private members only forum and I’ve got everything up and running but every forum has the tag Private: in front of it. So when i end up opening things I end up with the page header as “Home › Forum › Private: Private: FORUM NAME TEST” for example.

Is there any way you can remove the Private bit? Without making everything public?

Sorry I can’t share the site but as it’s all hidden behind a membership section there isn’t anything to show.

Thanks in advance for the help

Hi,

We’re contemplating moving our website to WordPress and are looking at integrated forum options to replace an older version of vBulletin we’re running now. I know vBulletin to WordPress bridges exist, but I’m hesitant as its been a nightmare bridging it to our current CMS and hoping to also not have to maintain two separate scripts, never mind theming them both as well.

Anyhow, I was informed that BBPress shares the same database table as WordPress and that migrating a forum as large as ours would have a massively negative effect on our WordPress install and properly affect our posts pretty bad.

Our vBulletin forum has approximately 180,000 members, 100,000 threads and roughly 6.5 million comments.

Any suggestions on how we might best proceed in a forum solution should we go the WordPress route for the rest of our website? I did see Simple:Press and saw it runs off a different table… Hate to be superficial, but looking at the website, it doesn’t really inspire confidence. (no offense)

Thank you in advance for any input or insight that can help us make a decision.

Hello all.
Does someone here know how to embed buddypress favorite button inside bbpress posts? Is it possible to get the activity id from the post id?

I have been working for about 5 days to get topics from a forum on one site to show on my main page, which is a separate site. I’m running current versions of wordpress multisite, bbpress, and buddypress on my main page.

I found some code via my searches and created a simple plugin. It works to display topics from a separate site on my main page. That was a victory for sure. The problem I am now having is the formatting! Arrghh! I cannot get it to format correctly.

I know that others have been wanting to do this, so perhaps someone else can get me to the final step and we can publish a good plugin. Here is the code:

<?php
/* 
		Plugin Name: Recent bbpress Topics
		Plugin URI: http://whosgotbooks.com/wp-content/plugins
		Description: A plugin to display recent bbpress topics across the network
		Version: 1.0.0
		Author: Jerry Caldwell
		Author URI: http://whosgotbooks.com
		License: Open Source 
*/ 

function recent_bbpress_topics_shortcode() {                  
  recent_bbpress_topics(); }
  add_shortcode( 'recent-bbpress-topics', 'recent_bbpress_topics_shortcode' );

// ! // Add Recent Topics to BBPress
function recent_bbpress_topics() {
  if ( bbp_has_topics( array( 'author' => 0, 'show_stickies' => false, 'order' => 'DESC', 'post_parent' => 'any', 'posts_per_page' => 8 ) ) ) { 
      //bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/loop', 'topics' );
      bbp_get_template_part( 'loop', 'topics' );
      }
// Hook into action
add_action('bbp_template_after_forums_loop','recent_bbpress_topics');

} ?>

I have been trying to get this to format with bbpress.css. I managed to changed the css on one of my sites to get things how I want, but I can’t with this function. Here is a link of how I want things to look: http://whosgotbooks.com/book-reviews/
And here is the link of the main page, where I can’t quite get it the way I want it: http://whosgotbooks.com/

Here is the bbpress.css that worked on the review page, but doesn’t work for the main page:

li.bbp-topic-title {
	float: left;
	text-align: left;
  overflow: hidden;
	width: 75%;
}
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-body ul.topic {
/*	border-top: 1px solid #7D573A; */ 
  border-top: transparent;
	overflow: hidden; 
  display: inline-table;  
	padding: 8px;
  width: 22%;
}

To get the books somewhat organized on the main page, I had to change width to 20% on the bbp-topic-title class above, and the bbp-body ul.topic changes do not help on the main page.
This is the extent of my abilities. I would love to get rid of those annoying dots as well. Hopefully someone can help me get the rest of the way.
Thanks…

Hello,

I’m actually using WordPress 3.9.1, BuddyPress 2.0.1 et bbPress 2.5.4 .

For my website I have created differents forums for each user group. This forums will directly be displayed in the main menu as submenus.

Is there a way to choose to display each forum submenu ONLY if the user is log in and a members of the group ?

I have found some solution to filter menu by role, but in my case it will be the group that should be used to filter the menus elements.

Thanks in advance !

Hello,

I have a WP multisite with different blogs but i want a single forum that is used by every blog. So every forum and post should be visible for every site.

There was a topic 3 years ago: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-multisite-single-forum/

Look like that is still no feature?

Thank you.
