Hi,
I am using bbPress for a WordPress website. It is working great, but I have few problems to customize it…
In the WP theme I made, I have a breadcrumb (created in functions.php), and in the forums pages, I also have the bbPress breadcrumb that is displayed. Because mine doesn’t work in the forum pages (because I don’t succeed in displaying the custom posts), I would like to do something like this in my theme files:
– If the Forum Page is displayed –> display my_breadcrumb(); (because it is a normal post)
– If the other forum pages are displayed –> display bbp_breadcrumb(); (because they are custom posts)
But for this (stop me if I am wrong) I think I have to edit the bbp_template_before_forums_loop in the bbp-theme-compat folder, to remove manually the bbp_breadcrumb and to display it in my theme, but I can’t find in which file is called bbp_template_before_forums_loop.
Thanks by advance for your help, and don’t hesitate to ask if you need more details!

Hi folks, I would like to create a distinction on my forum between members who donate and normal members… but I want they to have the same capatibilities on the forums, i tried to take role, and copy de capatibilies of another role, this works ok, but the main problem is that when I copy the capatibilities of another role the name of the role changes too…
somebody can tell me how to create new user roles? or maybe how can i add new permision to a role and keep the name of the role? for example, give to the spectator group all the capatibilies that have the participant group….
thanks in advance

I am using buddypress 1.6.4, WordPress 3.5.1 and bbpress 2.2.4. My website is on the localhost xamp server. I am using bp-columns theme as my Buddypress Child Theme. Please I would like to know how to create a bbpress child theme. I followed the step by step guide on how to create a bbpress child theme and it have so useful to me. The problem I have with it is this line that says: go to bbPress’ theme folder. That is, go to wp-content > plugins > bbpress > bbp-themes > bbp-twentyten. Download all the files from this folder except style.css. These are the files that will style your bbPress theme.
I can’t find the bbp-themes and bbp-twentyten folders in my bbpress installation.
Any help on this will be deeply appreciated!

Hi,
This is my first time trying to integrate bbpress on a wordpress site. I have purchased a premium theme from mojo theme but unable to get bbpress 2.2.4 to work on my page at all. If I switched the theme back to twentytwelve then the bbpress functions as normal. I tried running the forum using shortcode, however, only the shortcode page would work, and if I click on a topic nothing is showing up again.
I have been reading through different topics in this forum for the past 4 hours but result has been a little confusing.
Can someone please help?
Thanks,
David

I noticed that bbpress has no option to apply style by adding class inside of iframe.
But, I’d like to do this way,
<iframe class="span12 clearfix"…
Is there way to do without modifying bbpress source code?

I would like to have the post reply date formatted with a br tag in between.
E.g.

Have a look at the pic below:

I have found this in the core template file: http://pastebin.com/0wkMvvXp
But I’m not sure what code to put in my functions file.

Sorry for the ambiguous title. I have bbpress on a site, using the compatibility theme. The rest of the forums have always worked correctly and apart from a few css tweaks, have always looked good and matched the theme.
I recently noticed however, that the User Profile pages; profile, topics created, favourites etc, seem to ignore all the css and consequently have no layout/structure.
Here is a normal forum page on the site… Forums
The layout is correct, the sidebar is positioned correctly and has a PNG background creating the ‘shadow’. A title bar with page title is displayed below the header and navigation.
Here is an example of a User Profile page… Topics Started
There’s no css structure, the sidebar is at the bottom, there’s no PNG background behind the sidebar, theres no title bar and page title. It’s as if the CSS is being ignored.
As another example, on this page I have added the code below to user-profile.php and the sidebar is correct, but it still has no background PNG, title bar etc… User Profile
Any idea whats going on?
`
#sidebar { float: left; width: 230px !important; }
#main { float: left; width: 730px !important; }
`

I’m using the latest version of bbPress, Buddypress, in a subdomain multisite environment.
I have the site-wide forum enabled. It works.
I also have “Allow BuddyPress Groups to have their own forums” enabled. This part doesn’t quite work.
In the groups admin, I can enable the group forum. After I do this, the forum tab appears and shows that there are no new topics in the group’s forum. I can also see the new forum as a subgroup of the parent group-forum.
When I post new topics to the group’s forum, they don’t show up. They just disappear. I don’t even see them in the backend in the Topics view.
This briefly worked before – and then it stopped. I might have changed some slugs, and enabled and then disabled the Buddypress forum component.
I’ve ran the forum error checker in Tools/Forum. There are also no slug conflicts in Settings/Forum.
What can I do next?
