Hi there, I want to query all Posts from a category (i.e. “english”, id 2075) for a widget. The Query:

$topics_query = array(
                                            'author'         => 0,
                                            'posts_per_page' => 10,
                                            'show_stickies'  => false,
                                            'order'          => 'DESC',
                                            'post_parent' = 2075;
                            );

only returns the topics of category (forum) 2075 but not of the subforums. Is there an additional parameter that i can add to the query for

bbp_has_topics( $topics_query )? Thanky ou very much for help

If I don’t have “Allow Anonymous Posting” checked, and users are to sign in, I don’t see a way for them to sign in/register. I logged myself out and checked it, and I didn’t see a way… It would be great if there was a “Sign in with Facebook” button! Please advise.

Hi all first post here, here is my issue:

If I create a new blog post in wordpress with an oEmbed link on the first line e.g. youtube, the widget appears and works correctly in both the single post page and in the BuddyPress activity.

But when I create a new forum topic/reply with the first line as a youtube link and some text below it will work in the forum view but in buddypress activity there is only the text present. No widget or even a fallback link.

I don’t know if this is a bug or I am just missing the bigger picture but our site depends quite heavily on oEmbed now since it is an easy way to get widgets into the activity stream.

Thanks for any help

I’ve just installed bbpress on my classipress site, but classipress wants to override bbpress.

When I go to a forum I just created, I get this error:

Whoops! Page Not Found.

The page or ad listing you are trying to reach no longer exists or has expired.

Is there a way to override classipress?

Hi,

I have bbpress plugin in a WordPress 3.4.2 MU site, with a single instance in the root and /forums. I have a very basic child theme of TwentyEleven which makes some header and CSS tweaks.

Once I activated BBPress, I found that it is displayed using the sidebar. This crushes the forum to the left, so I wanted to get rid of it for the forum page. I read that by default BBPress will use the page.php from the TwentyEleven theme, and to copy that to my child theme, remove the call to the sidebar and name it bbpress.php would override it. Well, for a start, the TwentyEleven page.php does NOT contain the sidebar. After searching the filesystem I found that sidebar-page.php does, so I copied that to my child theme folder and named it bbpress.php, removed the get_sidebar() call, and also set the template name as Template Name: Forum Template in the bbpress.php file.

It did not work. My forum is still showing a sidebar. It does not seem to be using the bbpress.php file at all.

Is there a guide somewhere on how to get BBPress to display without the sidebar when using MU and a child theme of TwentyEleven?

As I said, my child theme if very simple. It is literally a header.php and styles.css, and I have now added bbpress.php. What do I need to do to get BBPress to use my bbpress.php template?

Can I add that a LOT of the helpful-looking links on here lead to 404 pages, which really hasn’t helped in trying to figure this out. It would be great if those could be fixed up somehow?

Thanks!

Hi,

I’ve installed bbPress on my site at http://www.thebridesboudoir.com/forums/

I’m in the middle of tweaking the templates now after copying them all to my Theme folder. I mainly copied the opening and closing tags from my current themes full width template into each file or am doing thatm, but testing when I go to the main forums, everything is thrown an inch or so to the right? It’s fine when I click on a Post to read te post details.

I have a few tweaks to make yet to the styling e.g. the post titles are too small, but could someone tell me why the main forum look would be skewif?

The other question is, what is Keymaster and how do I hide that. I prefer not to have the admin label in peoples face when I’m using the forums. I assume Key Master is another word for Admin and I don’t like the sound of it. Can I change that and where?

I note on some forums that you can create user roles and wondered if thats possible with bbPress and where that would be changed also?

Thanks for help in advance.

I like the way the forum is mixing in with my site with just a few changes here and there already. I’m surprised I’ve got this far as I’m hopeless with theming etc. Initially I installed and it took my side bar template as default and had sidebar featured and I preferred a full width forum theme, so copied the files to my theme directory. I’d be grateful for the help or hints on how to fix the front page to get it in line.

Hello all,

I’m trying to change the link (pagination) colours of the default theme twentyten. However, I can’t find any css entry what so ever. Could someone point me in the right direction? Still a bit of a newbie with website editing 😛

Thanks!

When I search using the bbPress search plugins (both of which do the same thing), my search results don’t include a hyperlink or info to any of the forum topics. It just includes the breadcrumb of the topic and says “viewing 0 posts”.

Here’s the link to the results: http://www.compusoftdevelopment.com/forum/?s=toolbar

You’ll notice of course that there are no actual posts showing up in the columns and rows below it. The only way to get to the topic is by clicking on the date it was posted where it says “1 week ago“. This is kind of an important feature, and I’ve deactivated my themes search.php file to isolate the issue and make sure it wasn’t my theme causing it.

I’ve done a bit of research on the current state of Syntax Highlighter support in bbPress 2. These are my findings thus far:

The “official” syntax highlighter plugin, Syntax Highlighter Evolved, does not yet support bbPress, and unfortunately the plugin does not seem to be well supported any longer. I still put a request in:

• https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/syntaxhighlighter/
• https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-syntaxhighlighter-evolved-please-add-bbpress-2-support?replies=1

The best option available at the moment appears to be the Crayon Syntax Highlighter.

• https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter/
• http://ak.net84.net/crayon/crayon-with-bbpress/

Do note that at the time of writing, there appears to be a slight hickup with the WP backend upon activating Crayon with bbPress already installed, so you might want to wait for the patch. But other than that the plugin seems to be working marvelously, it’s packed with features and the developer is actively supporting it.

Alternatively, for the WP-Markdown users, there’s an enhancement available for those who prefer Gorbatchev’s highlighter over Prettify.js (might wanna try that on this forum).

Text domains need to be loaded before bbp_loaded:18. At least before bbp_login_notices is called (hooked on bbp_loaded:default (10? I think)) The notices do not get translated. Or is it bbp_login_notices which should be hooked to something else than bbp_loaded? For now, I did `add_action( ‘bbp_loaded’, ‘bbp_login_notices’, 20 );“ so it get done after the text domain is active.

Happy to contribute.`
