Theme compatibility issue

Published on June 3rd, 2012 by Antonio

Is it correct that when the request is ?post_type=forum WordPress loads (through the function bbp_template_include_theme_supports()) the file page.php? It should not load archive.php or (better) archive-forum.php? Why this happens?

How to change bbpress forum layout?

Published on June 2nd, 2012 by briggsy326

I’m something of a novice when it comes to bbPress, sorry to say. And although I have spent a fair amount of time searching for how to do what I want to achieve I can not find a way that I can follow!

I am using WordPress and have installed the bbpress (version 2.0.2) plugin and I want to alter the layout of it.

I was looking at this link: http://wp.smashingmagazine.com/2011/11/15/getting-started-with-bbpress/

and currently the layout I see very much looks like this:

http://media.smashingmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/sm-bbpress-forums.png

but I very much want it to resemble this (not exactly):

http://media.smashingmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/sm-bbpress-dropbox.png

Sorry if this seems like such an obvious thing to do, but I really am at a loss of where to start.

Thank you kindly in anticipation of any help. :)

Search for Forums

Published on June 2nd, 2012 by aro747

I have a bbpress installation with buddypress, however, I just realized there is no way to search the Forums and I’m not seeing a “Search” plugin. Is there one? I think it’s important for the Forums to have a search feature.

TIA

Embedding YouTube and other media clips in 2.1

Published on June 1st, 2012 by Jeaz

Hey,

In 2.1 bbPress can now parse YouTube links and embed them directly into the posts, which is a great feature.

However, I’ve come across one problem, the width of the videos.

The videos default to 640 width which is too wide for my content. In wordpress media settings I’ve entered that the content shouldn’t be wider than 500px but bbPress do not adhere to that setting.

Also, since the embed add width and height inline, I can’t change it with CSS.

The only workaround right now is to add &w=500 at the end of the YouTube link, but that’s not ideal for many reasons. First, it makes more complicated for my users to add video. And also, it means that if I ever change width of the forum in the future, 500 might not be the ideal width and I’d have to go over and change it all again.

Not sure if I should put this as a bug in the trac. I certainly don’t mind doing that but don’t want to flood it unnecessarily.

Turn off Akismet check for logged in users

Published on June 1st, 2012 by injua

bbPress 2.1-r3920.

Really think there should be a role setting or a simple off-on setting to turn off akismet checking for logged in users.

With the current governmental paranoid craziness regarding online privacy. More and more users are turning to proxies or VPN with shared IP. This leads to a lot of ham being caught in the process.

Hope to see it in the future.

In the BBP_Akismet class in bbb-extend-akismet.php there are this function with a do_action call. Do anyone know a quick and simple way to turn it off from here with code in functions.php?

// Spam
if ( 'true' == $post_data['bbp_akismet_result'] ) {

// Let plugins do their thing
do_action( 'bbp_akismet_spam_caught' );

// This is spam
$post_data['post_status'] = bbp_get_spam_status_id();

// We don't want your spam tags here
add_filter( 'bbp_new_reply_pre_set_terms', array( $this, 'filter_post_terms' ), 1, 3 );

// @todo Spam counter?
}

Suddenly can't log in on my iphone

Published on May 31st, 2012 by blogher8

I use bbpress 0.9x and everything has been working great.

Except a few minutes ago, I had been using the site on my iPhone (Safari) and suddenly was logged out and could not log in again. I tried about three times — not user error.

So I figured maybe my login was hacked and changed and I rushed to a computer, but my login still worked fine.

It’s not my account or the website. It seems to be happening only on the iPhone browser.

Any ideas or suggestions would be very welcome!

Forum Column Headings – How to Change?

Published on May 31st, 2012 by Faegan44

Hi.

I would like to be able to change column headings on bbpress. For instance, I would like “Freshness” to be “Most Recent” or something else. How can I do this? Thanks!
