bbPress.org

Not really a plugin per-se, but I’ve created a Python script to archive bbPress content to a mailbox.

The export process is detailed in an article.

Forget it the formatting on this site is impossible. Sorry for wasting your time. MOD: Please delete this at first opportunity.

I have created a couple of test forums – these show up ok individually. But when I go to the main forums page (http://www.buscarlibros.com/foros/) the list of forums aren’t showing.
Also, on Internet Explorer I get
<tr id="bbp-forum-397"

showing up

Hey guys,

I’m using the most recent buddypress and a dating plugin and I’m really having trouble here updating my WordPress Dating Plugin. I know it’s kind of off topic but I was wondering if anyone was using this and knew how to update it using FTP. I’ve uploaded my files and I’m supposed to copy them to the folder that is on my desktop. Any suggestions would help. Thanks.

Currently when I reply to a topic on my site I am dumped on the forum index page. I’m wondering how to instead just refresh said topic with my reply posted.

I want to customize a topic that is closed. It was easy to find the css class for a topic that was closed, but I cannot for for the life of me find what php file is executing that class. I want to add an extra column with the string “[Resolved]” next to the name of the topic to make it more intuitive for my users. The website with an example of a closed topic is: http://www.compusoftdevelopment.com/forum/forums/forum/submitted-features/

I am running Wp v3.4.2 and bbPress v2.1.2

I have a WordPress site (3.4.2) which uses a premium theme that I want to keep. I just activated the BBPress plugin (ver 2.1.2) and created a forum and topic etc. The forum and topic pages appear and look ok, but I would like to customize the template and css that is being used in this. I am finding BBP documentation on this somewhat confusing.

My Plan: I will create my own BBP template based on page.php from my main theme and modify the layout etc.

To implement this new template I create, I am guessing that I can replace $new_template (shown below; code taken from bhp-template-loader.php (wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes) with the name of my new template, such as “bbp-new-page.php”). Is this correct?

// bbPress template file exists
if ( !empty( $new_template ) ) {

    // Override the WordPress template with a bbPress one
    $template = $new_template;

And to modify the css, I can simply hack “bbpress.css” (wp-content/plugins/bbpress/
bbp-theme-compat/css/bbpress.css)?

This approach seems really hacky/inelegant however.

On a slightly separate note, it appears that implementing the steps for theme-compatibility (https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility) are necessary only if you are going to use a single (custom) theme (or child theme?) for both WP and BBP?

Finding it a little confusing to untangle the methods and their purposes in BBP theming.

Thanks to anyone who can help!

There is a common disconnect between the WP user profile and bbPress. It’s not integrated. Right now if the user registers with the bbPress registration, then logs in, it takes them to the WordPress profile page. This isn’t good for branding. First of all, it takes them ‘out’ of the site into a WordPress profile (confusing them right off the bat), which has the WordPress logo and WordPress backend style. At this point, a non-WP user doesn’t know what to do to get back to the site.

Is there a clean, easy way to redirect the “Profile” link back to the bbPress profile and prevent them from ever hitting the WordPress brand? The site needs to feel consistent and well-thought out without this random user flow.

Hello:
I’ve just started using wordpress and needed a good forum. I opted for BBPress and so far works fine. I am just tweaking it a bit and would like to disable the Reply to: in the Topics section. My particular test site will not need this and I wish to keep the area tidy.

** I posted this in WordPress (Plugins & Hacks) but didn’t get any response. Not sure if I was in the wrong place? **
Thanks

Is there anywhere I can change the WordPress theme’s page template that bbPress uses for all forum pages? Here’s what I’m talking about:

I need to use the template “page without sidebar” rather than the default template.

The goal is to get rid of the sidebar here and expand the forum to the width of the page: Forum
