"start new" link

Published on April 2nd, 2012 by Dave

At the top of the forums here you have a “start new” link. The link destination seems to be:

http://mywebsite.com/forums/?new=1

But when I use the link, in my case, href=”http://theatremusicdirectors.org/forums/?new=1″ it doesn’t work.

I want to put a “Create New Discussion” button in my sidebar – how do I do this?

I’m using bbpress 2.

Make @mention also show nicename/nickname

Published on April 2nd, 2012 by highexistence

My users are confused by @mentions when trying to follow a conversation because many users are using nicenames/nicknames, which are displayed in the forums.

Can someone point me to the function that handles @mention linking so that I can modify the @mention to include the nickname in parentheses next to it?

Published on April 2nd, 2012 by scotty502

Hi All,

I have successfully installed the forum here www.thecallover.co.uk/forums and all looks good in IE and FF – but in Chrome and Safari the layout is messed up.

I have searched the forums with others for similar problems but I see no definite fix.

Any help much appreciated.

[bbpress 2 plugin] – How to change default avatar size? (to match Buddypress)

Published on April 1st, 2012 by Laughing Cat

I’ve set in buddypress a full avatar width/height size as 150px (full sized).

My bbpress 2.x forum installation, however, has set by default 80px forum avatar images

How can I set the avatar size for the forum threads to be the same as buddypress?

thank you

[bbpress 2 plugin] – Forum order doesn't work? – not appearing in correct order

Published on April 1st, 2012 by Laughing Cat

Hi

I’m running WP3.3.1 and bbP 2.1

my forums are are not being listed in the front page archive or forum summary pages in the correct order; I double checked many times the ordering number, but no matter what, the forums will display in their own order which is neither alphabetical, cronological (date created/updated) or other. I can’t just figure it out. I’ve tried also re-arranging forums with simple page ordering plugin, no success.

How can I list forums correctly?

thank you

Split bbpress plugin and standalone into 2 forums

Published on April 1st, 2012 by The800

Hi. I would like to bring a suggestion to your (the admin’s) attention.

Wouldnt it be better to have one forum for bbpress (standalone) and one for the plugin? Its quite a mess having the topics mixed, makes the forum hard to navigate.

I like how the documentation page have everything sorted by version numbers, could be something to do with the forum too, maybe?

Where is Dashboard?

Published on April 1st, 2012 by webismuk

Hi All,

Read the instructions and installed through wordpess.

The options I have seem very limited and read about a BBPress Dashboard but cannot locate it.

On WordPress I can see Forums/Topics/Replies and a few basic settins in Settings Forum.

But nothing that seems to give you any degress of control.

I have obviously missed something and from searches so have many people on the internet.

I would like to install a set theme for the BBPress – I have created my-templates and added theme static-red I found. But cannot locate how to activate.

I am sure it will be on the BBPress Dashboard (probably)

Any pointers to its location and how to access it would be great.

Or it maybe I have access to all the options and have just missed it.

Thanks in advance.

CSS Issue

Published on April 1st, 2012 by nadimvdr

I’m sure I’m missing something obvious but I can’t seem to find the CSS that relates to the following problem – all my forum pages, and topic discussions appear to be shorter than the width of the table.

I’m using a theme called Oxygen and the normal theme for bbpress.

Here are some screenshots to help explain more clearly (if I’m allowed to post links).

I realise it might be the theme and not bbpress but was hoping someone had an idea of whether this was handled in bbpress’ css.

Getting Started question,

Published on April 1st, 2012 by mcondev@gmail.com

How do I use the defined forum ? Another plugin recommended, that I put [forumServer] in the page content, and the forum just shows up. But in this plugin, there is no documentation, instead a 40 min video to go through.

Please put just be a list of screenshots to make it easy to understand.
