Dumb question ALERT: replacing comments with bbPress topics

Published on November 25th, 2013 by Asynaptic

KLAXON wailing in the distance…

What does “replacing comments with bbPress topics” refer to exactly?

It was mentioned in the bbPress 2.4 and 2.5 announcements.

Thanks!

Change font type in forum-index

Published on November 25th, 2013 by byronlee27

I am having some trouble figuring out how to change the font type on my forum. Everything looks good except the forum index, which is using a font that looks like it’s done with a typewriter. I want to use a bolder, darker font link the rest of the site has. I’ve copied the bbpress to the themes folder and made a CSS folder and copied everything to there. I was looking through the code and I couldn’t make heads or tails out of it. Can someone go to www.lowvisionrants.com/forums and tell me how to change the font of that main page so it looks normal?

Hiding a forum from the forum index, but displaying it on a separate page only?

Published on November 25th, 2013 by Kascade

Hi there,

Was wondering if it was possible to Hide a forum from the forum index, whilst displaying it on a separate page, and no other page?

Making a forum hidden means that it not accessible on any page by non-admins, whereas making it a child of a hidden page makes the topics of the forum 404.

Thanks for any support!

Recent update seemed to break all my titles?

Published on November 25th, 2013 by svcslzysh

I tired the new update and it resulted in blank pages across my entire site. I was able to get back to my wp-admin only to see:

bbpress problem

Note I see this with my regular blog posts as well. When I disable bbpress my blog works again and post name appear correct.

Thanks for any help you might be able to give. My forum is down until I figure this one out or find the last version and restore.

Automatically Creating Members

Published on November 25th, 2013 by samson2012

Hi,

I have been having problems with forum building and would like to know if bbpress is capable of adding new members to the forum automatically incorporating wp-member plugin.

Basically a paid site which has a private forum, once someone pays their membership they automatically gain access to the forum.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

No Forum subscriptions (update to 2.5)

Hey there, I just updated to the newest version 2.5. I still can’t see the forum subscriptions (when I go to my account, there is just

Did I do something wrong?

Layout broken after upgrade to 2.5 due to broken paths (no slashes..?)

Published on November 25th, 2013 by roeller

After the upgrade to 2.5 there are CSS errors because the include is broken! The cause is that the programmers didn’t thought about people hosting WordPresss (and bbpress) on Windows platforms. (Windows uses a different slash and different directory root/paths).

I’m hoping for a 2.5.1 fix 😉

ERRORS:

Note that the slashes are missing from the ‘plugin_dir’ part.

I think the problem is within the “private function setup_globals” of the bbpress.php file or the “public function __construct” of the bbpress-functions.php file.

update erases translation

Published on November 25th, 2013 by kentlii

Updating to 2.5 erased the translation of the forum. Is that normal?
So you should save the translation before updating and then upload it again?
