Issues Removing the Sidebar

Published on December 5th, 2012 by Kslad

Hi guys,

I have done my research and I have been able to remove the side bar from (what I think is) the top level of the forums by editing the archive-forum.php file.

When I select a forum (I currently only have one) and a topic in the forum (again, I only have one) I still see my theme’s sidebar. I decided to modify the archive-topic.php file and comment out the get_sidebar(); line (as I did above), but unlike above, this did not work.

I commented out the get_sidebar(); line for every file in the plugins/bbpress/templates/default/extras folder. This did not work for me.

My question is: how do I remove my theme’s sidebar from the list of forums, topics and inside the topics too?

Categories

Published on December 5th, 2012 by lshr

Hey all,

I will be adding a Forum to an existing WordPress site, and I am familiar with both PHPBB and vBulletin, and I would like to use the “Category” features — where Forums are listed under an appropriate category.

I would like to use bbPress for the common look and feel, and single sign on four our users.

Can I set up Categories?

Why is Forum Index In Bullet Points??

Published on December 5th, 2012 by mlakritz

My forum index page is just a bunch of bullet points listing each text for the topics.  How do I get the forum index to be listed in boxes like on the bbpress example.

Also, I suspect this could be from my theme formatting the bbpress forums this way – what file would I look in to change this and how?

Please help!

Drop Down (Cursor) Menu

Published on December 5th, 2012 by Noodle Man

Hello! I’m not very good at HTML, scripting and the like, and I was wondering if there was a plugin for the following.

On some websites, when you move your cursor over a button (much like the WordPress pages links) a menu drops down with other links. When you are logged in on bbPress, the same happens when you move your cursor over your Username. I would like the same, just with pages, rather than a username.

Add action on topic save

Published on December 5th, 2012 by frenzis73

I would like to display a ‘New Topic’ form at the bottom of my posts with the

You must be logged in to create new topics.

shortcode . When someone publish a topic through this form (inside a regular WP post), I would like to save a post_meta for the regular WP ID post that bind the new topic ID with the post ID.

Someone could me suggest an action to hook ?

rewriting / remapping forum to top-directory

Published on December 5th, 2012 by RaphaelJeger

Hi

I have successfully installed bbpress on my existing site where I run WP 3.4.2, BP 2.2.2 and bbPress in it’s newest version.

The homepage is a custom programmed php-application, let’s say it runs under www.abc.com

The WP-blog runs under www.abc.com/community

The BP-part runs under www.abc.com/community/activity

and at the moment, the bbPress-forums run under http://www.abc.com/community/discuss/forum/

and a subforum runs under http://www.abc.com/community/discuss/forum/mysubforumtitle/

However, I’d like to remap this to www.abc.com/forum for the forum main page and www.abc.com/forum/mysubforumtitle/ for the subforum.

I was able to remap the main-forum-page by adding

RewriteRule ^forum/(.*) http://www.abc.com/community/discuss/$1 [NC,L,P]

to my .htaccess but of course, the links to sub-forums still point to http://www.abc.com/community/discuss/forum/mysubforumtitle/

Is there a way I can completely run the forums directly under www.abc.com/forum/* ?

I’d be really glad for any help or hints.

Thanks
Raphael

404 page not found error

Published on December 5th, 2012 by diesel1984

hi,

i’ve just installed bbpress 2.2 (released 19th november 2012) on a clean install (no other plugins have been activated) of wordpress 3.4.2. However, whenever a reply is added to a topic the browser is redirected to a 404 not found page. When i navigate back to that topic the reply has been added however. I’m using the default template without any modifications. Anyone know whats going on and how to solve this issue?

Thanks in advance

Spam/Trash links not working after upgrade to WP 3.4

Published on December 5th, 2012 by highexistence

I just upgraded WordPress from 3.3.1 to 3.4.2 and now the spam and trash admin links on my topics/replies do not work. They bring me to the same URL as before, but nothing happens to the topic/replies.

Is there a way to remove underlinings?

Published on December 5th, 2012 by Schorsch156

Hey, many thanks for the great support.

Is there a way to remove underlinings in the topics titles?

I mean similar to changing colors, is there a css tweak to do that (via style.css in the childtheme folder)?

Thanks a lot
George
