How to make the start-page exactly like bbPress Support?

Published on July 14th, 2013 by Razva

Hello,

I would like to know how to make the “frontpage” of our forum exactly like this forum (bbPress Support). The frontpage should have a paginated “stream” with the latest topics, in the sidebar I should have the forums categories, etc.

Can you please give me a hint?

Thanks!

Theme template guide?

Published on July 13th, 2013 by Travis

Does anyone know if there is a guide to the theme template files? Trying to find what file works for what page doesn’t seem to be working very well… I’m trying to find the single forum file but for some reason single-forum.php is not the correct file… Any ideas where I can find some type of file structure guide? Thanks!

Add forums link to main navigation menu

Published on July 13th, 2013 by xmatter

I have read several articles about removing the bbpress slug for forums and then creating a page “forums”, but I really don’t to do that if there is another way. I simply want to add a link to my main navigation menu so when a user clicks it, they are taken to the forum main index. I know when i type in www.samplesite.com/forums it takes me where i want to go. So how can i accomplish this with/without creating a forums page. When I have a forums page, the link displays in the main navigation menu, but takes me to an empty page with no forums. Thanks in advance!!!

I need to password protect one of the forums. Is there a plugin available? Or an alternative method you’d suggest?

bbPress Short Code

Published on July 13th, 2013 by wghyzer

The short code

displays an entire list of forums while the side bar widget bbPress List can be made to display just the Forum root. Is there a way to either make the
display just the forum rootlist or can the widget bbPress List be made to display on a page?

Thank You

Correct filters for removing wptexturize

Published on July 13th, 2013 by Anonymous User

Hello,

Could anyone point me in the right direction so I can identify the filters used in bbpress so that I might remove wptexturize?

I have identified those required for WordPress itself, but bbpress appears to use different filters. The WordPress ones I successfully used are:

remove_filter( ‘the_title’, ‘wptexturize’ );
remove_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wptexturize’ );
remove_filter( ‘the_excerpt’, ‘wptexturize’ );
remove_filter( ‘comment_text’, ‘wptexturize’ );

Which I added to functions.php of a child theme.

I then identified what I thought were the required filters in bbpress from here:

http://etivite.com/api-hooks/bbpress/trigger/apply_filters/bbp_get_topic_content/

…and added the following to functions.php to no effect:

remove_filter( ‘bbp_get_reply_content’, ‘wptexturize’);
remove_filter( ‘bbp_get_topic_content’, ‘wptexturize’);

These filters do not work, so I assume they are not the correct ones. Any ideas what the correct filters are?

Thank you!

Converting from punBB?

Published on July 12th, 2013 by Nick Ottens

Is there any simple way yet to convert an existing punBB forum (I’m running version 1.2.16) into bbPress yet? I tried the bbConverter plugin which says their punBB converter is “not complete”. I tried it anyway, but it simply didn’t do anything.

Also found this topic: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/punbb-bbpress/

But I don’t know how to “run” the script. If it would work at all, it’s five years old.

Your advice?
