Hi all,
Running WordPress version 3.5.1 and bbPress version 2.2.4 My them is Everest by Elegant Themes.
All works well with the whole site, and wanted to add Forum functionality with bbPress. The CSS doesn’t appear to be showing at all for the forum. It really is horribly dull and small fonts.

Although this is on a staging / testing server, you will see what I mean:

Can someone help please? I have copied the original bbPress css file into the /themes/everest/css/ folder but still get the same issue.

Thnks in advance.
Chris

Is it possible to connect an existing forum to another website?

Hi Guys,

I need to change some texts on my forum. Examples of the texts i need to change are listed below.

Topic

Freshness

Voices

Post

Create New Topic

Topic Title

There are a few more but I would run out of space trying to list all of them. (LOL)

Now to my question, How can i change these texts without using a plugin preferably.
I have tried the – BB Press String Swap Plugin – but i am not keen on it as it does not offer the opportunity to change all the texts i would like to change and also because i feel it slows my site down.

Has anyone got any other suggestions to help me out. If there is no plugin out there that can do all the text changes i need to do, is there a tutorial out there to which i can refer? If it is possible to achieve this by editing files would it have to be in a child theme (Risk of losing after update)

Finally, if all fails, is there any expert out there who can make these changes for me for a fee?

Thanks in Advance

Recently i have started bbpress forum for my blog But i want to know how i can enable custom bbpress avatars for user profiles. Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I am running the current BBPress release and have TinyMCE editor enabled for users. Switching to text mode, it appears that they should be able to add images (linked, not uploaded), however it is stripping out the image when the post is published.

I looked through the plugin settings, and I don’t see anything to enable or disable images beyond turning the TinyMCE on or off. I would like to allow users to post images, preferably without a plugin. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

My dev site is http://fishwire.rudtek.com. I’m running wordpress 3.5 and have buddypress 1.7 b2 and bbpress 2.3-rc1.

New users can’t seem to signup to the forums. The site lets them register, and sends them the activation email. When it’s clicked it says they are activated, but they can’t login.

The users are being created on the back end but they are not being assigned a default forum role. I have the box checked that says that it should be doing so, but it’s not working.

I have tried with all plugins but bbpress and buddypress disabled and I have tried with and without the default buddypress theme.

Any suggestions? THANKS!

I’m wanting to edit the css of bbPress to tweak the appearance of my forums, specifically the font size. I’m running WordPress 3.5.1, bbPress 2.2.4, and using a twentytwelve-child theme. My forums are at

http://www.asgoth.net/?post_type=forum

I found the “bbPress Custom CSS File” plug-in but according to the description I do not need it.

** This plugin is for bbPress 2.1.x. If you are using bbPress 2.0.x please upgrade. If you are using bbPress 2.2, read below.**

bbPress 2.2+: As of bbPress 2.2 this plugin is NOT needed. bbPress will auto-detect the CSS file if it exists in the right location.

Copy the CSS file from wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-default/css/bbpress.css to wp-content/themes/[yourtheme]/bbpress.css.

Following the instructions above I have copied the bbpress.css file from the bbpress plugin’s css folder to “wp-content/themes/twentytwelve-child/bbpress.css”. When I go into the WordPress dashboard under appearance-edit the bbpress.css is available for editing.

So assuming I have the bbpress.css file in the right place (if I don’t please instruct me where I need to put it for editing), which line of code in the bbpress.css file do I need to edit to change the font size on my forums.

Any assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I’ve been searching through the plug-ins and maybe not using the right words to look for this in the forums – surely I’m not the first to ask THIS!

I just installed bb press and I want to put a wrapper on it so it looks like my wordpress website. Google searches got me into trouble with mods that broke the forums.

Can you point me to a discussion, documentation or reliable website that tells me how to do this?

Thanks,

I would like to change the word Forum to the word Discussion in my entire bbPress instsall.

I followed the directions in a post on the BuddyPress site. https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/customizing/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

I used POEdit to create a .po file an a .mo file containing my desired changes & I uploaded it to the wp-content/languages directory.

It doesn’t work. Is there something else I have to do somewhere?

Thanks.
