Can't get bbPress to work with custom WordPress theme

Published on July 31st, 2012 by erobertwald

I am pulling my hair out on this. I have tried getting bbPress to work with a WordPress site using a custom theme and evidently I’m missing something because it just isn’t happening. Here’s what I’ve done based on what I could find for instructions so far:

  • I installed and activated the plugin through the wordpress admin.
  • I created a test forum and a test topic through the wordpress admin.
  • I created a child theme folder, named the same as the primary theme appended with ‘-child’.
  • I copied the contents of the wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-twentyten into the child theme folder.
  • I updated the style.css file ‘Template:’ line to refer to the parent theme.
  • I added ‘add_theme_support( ā€˜bbpress’ );’ to the main theme’s functions.php.

When I go to the forum via http://www.carolina-business.org/forums/, I get a page that spits out a section titled with the most recent post title and a huge amount of blank space with the forum list at the bottom of the section. This is followed by a section for every other post on the site, each of these containing the forum list.

When I go to the forum via http://www.carolina-business.org/forums/forum/test-forum-1, I get another page that shows all of the posts in the site. I get the same result via http://www.carolina-business.org/forums/topic/test-topic-1/.

What I’m trying to achieve is for the forum to appear in the content area of the site, within one of the content frames (the white box with the green header and gray border.)

Can anyone tell me what I am doing incorrectly/not doing? Thanks!

How to get reply ids within topic loop?

Published on July 30th, 2012 by tkomuro2k

Hello guys!

I am trying to run a replies loop within topics loop… and scratching my head..
(more specifically, at loop-single-topic.php compat template .. I am trying to do something like..

        bbp_has_replies();
        while ( bbp_replies() ) : bbp_the_reply();
        $current_topic_reply_id = bbp_get_reply_id();
        echo $current_topic_reply_id ;
        endwhile;

and.. i am getting.. same IDs under every topic..
would you help me to get reply IDs for each topic including the topic ID itself?
Thank you very much guys..

How is the user profile page being generated?

Published on July 30th, 2012 by Chris A. a11n

I’m working with bbPress 2.1 and bbp-theme-compat and some weird stuff is happening with the user profile pages. If I view the profile page of an author or contributor I’m getting the post thumbnail of that user’s latest post at the top of the profile. I’m also getting pagination at the bottom of the profile for some users.

To further this, I can’t quite find the template file that is being used to generate this page. I would assume it’s using: bbp-theme-compat\extras\single-user.php but within this file is a div with the css class “bbp-single-user”. When searching the source of the outputted profile page I can’t find that class anywhere.

element.style overriding layout

Published on July 30th, 2012 by mh1ok

I have installed bbpress on my site and all looks fine except these styles overriding my layout. From the inspector it looks like its element.style adding a background-position to the theme. Does anyone know how to override this? All I would need maybe is to just have it set to background-position: -10000px; which should hide it but I’m not sure where that would go.

Wow I need help!

Published on July 30th, 2012 by Recipraycity

Unfortunately, I can’t find anyone else with this issue. So clearly the problem is between the chair and keyboard. I apologize for wasting anyone’s time with this, but I’ve been stuck for days and can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. So, thank you in advance.

I am not a programmer!

So here’s my issue: I just can’t seem to get anything working correctly. I have a theme (dynamix) which supports buddypress.I have buddypress installed and activated with bbpress. But when I try to create a new forum, it gets created in a place that I don’t have access to.

For example, I go to dashboard > Forums > New Forum > and I create a new forum (usually with some sarcastic name because I’m frustrated)

That forum gets created with the forum slug and the forum base.

So, let’s say I have my forum base set to X
My forum slug set to Y

When I publish the a new forum, let’s call it ā€œImstupidā€, it goes to: http://www.(mysite).com/ [forum page]/X/Y/imstupid

My assumption is that it would go directly to the spot where X is, like: http://www.(mysite).com/imstupid.

Is it possible there’s an issue with some older pages that I’ve created and deleted? I have emptied the trash on the old pages.

So, I want people to be able to click on my forum page (it’s not named forums, by the way) and have a list of forums right there. As it stands now, not only are the forums I have created not there, but I can’t even get to them!

Thank you, again, in advance for your help. And God bless anyone who help me figure this out!

Give a Login Widget shortcode for use other than sidebar

Published on July 30th, 2012 by L D

I see we can add the bbPress Login widget to the sidebar. I don’t use sidebars; is there any shortcode for coding it in elsewhere, in our pages, other than the sidebar?
