Suffusion and bbPress 2.x

Published on June 13th, 2012 by enderandrew

Has anyone got bbPress 2.x formatting correctly in a Suffusion child theme? Would they be willing to share their child theme so I can see what they did, or help me?

Thank you!

bbPress forcing login to view the forum

Published on June 12th, 2012 by Ebq

I have been trying to setup a bbPress forum for a while now and everything went very smooth. Now I’ve got a problem that I haven’t found a solution to:

How do I force a user to log in before they can view any forum content at all? I’ve been thinking about just redirecting to /wp-login.php but how do I implement that into my bbPress forum so it knows that you have logged in?

I thought this might work but don’t know what file to implement the code into…

if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
//Site code here
} else {
header("Location: http://www.site-name.com/wp-login.php");
exit;
}

I am a beginner to this whole webdesign world so bare with me if this question is not complicated at all.

tags not preserving tabs

Published on June 12th, 2012 by gingerngo

Hi all,

The forums I am working on right now does not seem to preserve the spacing or tabs when I paste content into <code> tags. Any ideas?</p>

When I view source, the tabs and spaces seem to be there, but not on the page itself.

Screenshots:

Forum post with <code> sample:

http://cl.ly/0y3Y1n3R3L0a190a1D3l

– the tabs are missing, and should have similar spacing as this:

http://cl.ly/0a3M2h0F1Q0L3o0r1q3M

If I may try here:

<code>
&:hover {
background: #EEE;
}
}
</code>

Seems to work…

[REQ] Way to integrate WP-Polls

Published on June 12th, 2012 by enderandrew

WP-Polls will allow you to put a poll in a post. Now that bbPress 2.x is built on custom-post types, I’m assuming this is somewhat more feasible.

Could someone write a bbPress plugin to integrate WP-Polls and bbPress?

Thanks!

bbPress 2.1 from SVN and can't add/edit Posts or Pages

Published on June 12th, 2012 by enderandrew

The forums themselves seem to be working, but after activating bbPress 2.1 (downloaded from SVN today), I can’t add or edit posts or pages. It always brings up the last forum I created.

different wp header vs bbpress header

Published on June 11th, 2012 by sandeepj

I am doing a little bit of reverse-engineering to build a custom BLOG/FORUM theme for my site. I cloned the 2010 bbpress code to my own theme and merged in my header/index/footer pages and custom css styles for starters.

I have nearly identical header.php in BOTH the parent & child themes. The only difference is the header.php in my bbpress child theme removes part of the header, so it essentially is a modified parent-theme header.

I noticed, however, that when I made this change now BOTH my blog and bbpress forum pages have the modified header – what gives?!

How can modifying the child-theme impact the parent?

blog site goes blank after enabling bbpress and child bbpress theme

Published on June 11th, 2012 by sandeepj

I have a custom wordpress theme for my company’s blog to match the styling of my non-wordpress company website. I came across bbpress and wanted to integrate it into my wordpress company blog.

I followed this tutorial for a basic forum setup:

https://codex.bbpress.org/home/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/

My Parent Theme: XX

My Child Theme: XX-bbpress

I created my child bbpress theme and imported the necessary templates as suggested, however, I am baffled by what I observed when I visit the blog landing pages:

I went into WP-ADMIN and activated the child theme. When I visit:

http://www.companydomain.com/blog/forums

– I can see the default forum layout

but when i vist my blog

http://www.companydomain.com/blog

– my blog page is completly blank

I’ve disabled all but the bbpress plugin. WP_DEBUG doesn’t show any errors when I visit my blog page either. HUH?

Am I missing something? Thanks!

WordPress 3.4; /forums extremly slow

Published on June 10th, 2012 by thefairystamp

Hey,

I tried the last few days to figure out, what I did wrong. On my test version of WordPress I installed bbpress for development. Everything is working fine there.

For the customer, I installed the latest WordPress 3.4 Release Candidate. But when I tried to call */forums, the request slows down and All I get is the theader element. I can get to single forums, topics etc, but I cannot see the whole forums.

Any Idea how to solve this?

Note above comment form

Published on June 9th, 2012 by zeaks

I wasn’t sure where to ask this. I want to put a note above or next to where it says “Reply” and “Topic Description:” for posting instructions. Anyone know what files I need to edit, or some sort of function I can use?

I did this with wordpress comments EX: Use “< code > to display code in your comment” above the comment box, using a function, no idea how to do it with bbpress though.
