Hello,

I am having trouble trying to resize my forums table cells widths.

The “topics” and “posts” cells that only contain a number don’t need to be the same width as the “forum” and “freshness” cells that contain words and wrap to the next line.

When I look at the table through firebug I just see “.article th, .article td” which is part of my sytle.css and not bbpress.

Any ideas how I can make the cells widths change?

Here is an example of 1 forum I am talking about http://lifeafterlondon.com/forums-2/

Many thanks

I’ve installed bbpress from the dashboard, created forums and topics.

I am now trying to use the shortcodes to display the forum in a page

these work for showing the forum

but any shortcodes I use to add login,

makes my top menu and footer loose all their formatting and makes them become lists. Using the login widget on a sidebar does the same thing. Here’s a screencap: https://i.imgur.com/wmDNx.png

I don’t know if it matters or could be the souce of this issue, but I am using a theme (dagda from wptitans…).

Does anybody have any clue on how to fix that? I really would like bbpress to work!

..and sorry to ask a question that might already have been answered somewhere, I’ve been looking for a solution for a few hours now, any pointer would be greatly appreciated.

Thks!

Is there a way to add a latest posts list to the forum root level in bbPress 2, just the way I had it in the standalone 1.1 forum (example http://www.stazeibogaze.info/bbpress/)?

Question two – what php line of code should I use when I want to include the bbPress Reply List widget content into a page (not as a widget, but into the main body)?

I’m a bit disappointed not to be able to find a simple private messaging solution for bbPress 2 that existed through a plugin in 1.1. I don’t want to go through all the trouble of installing BuddyPress and making all the necessary theme customizations, and I don’t want to use some WordPress plugin that would require users to go to a separate page and select who they want to message from a dropdown list. I need just a simple PM link in the forum interface. Is it so complicated to add the option?

Hi there,

Just installed the bbpress plugin. I want to create seperate forums for various class groups, so I’m interested in creating groups of users. I have searched all over under ‘users’ and ‘registration’ and haven’t found anything that helps me understand how this works (no previous experience in setting up a forum!).

Do ppl have to register as users on my wp site to be a user on the forum, and if so how do they do that? And how does it integrate into the forum page?

Also, I was reading on the bbpress site about ‘wp integration’ on the settings page but can’t see anything like that at all. I’m using current version of wp – 3.3.1.

thanks for any help

Hi I’m using bbpress within a Childtheme.

What I did was:

1. add_theme_support( ‘bbpress’ ); in my functions.php

2. put all template files from the plugin into my child theme folder

3. added all bbpress.css in my child theme css

now everything works well from scratch. just one problem.

the table for the replies doesnt look nice.

the column with td or th with .bbp-reply-author should be 120px as i figured it out from the stylesheet. the second column should be the rest to add it up until 100%.

this works for the topic post but not for the replies. the replies column is only about 100px wide and doesnt fill up the row to the needed 100%.

my theme css for tables include only the following:

table { width:auto; border-collapse:collapse; margin-bottom:1.5em; border-top:1px #888 solid; border-bottom:1px #888 solid }

table caption { text-transform: uppercase }

table.full, .widget_calendar table { width:100% }

table.fixed { table-layout:fixed }

th,td { padding:0.5em }

thead th { color:#000; border-bottom:1px #800 solid }

tbody th { background:#e0e0e0; color:#333 }

tbody th[scope=”row”], tbody th.sub { background:#f0f0f0 }

tbody th { border-bottom:1px solid #fff; text-align:left }

tbody td { border-bottom:1px solid #eee }

tbody tr:hover th[scope=”row”],

tbody tr:hover tbody th.sub { background:#f0e8e8 }

tbody tr:hover td { background:#fff8f8 }

So no more widths included. Do you know how i can figure out where the problem is?

I tried to specify the column widths with <colgroup><col width=”25%” /><col width=”75%” /></colgroup> in the loop-replies.php file.

Second i tried to style the widths of td and th cells with .bbp-reply-author and .bbp-reply-content classes.

both didnt actually work. would be very glad to get any input you might have.

class foomanchu {

function __construct() {

add_action( ‘bb_hook’, array( $this, ‘callback_function’ ) );

}

function callback_function() {

$result = ‘foomanchu’;

return $result;

}

}

The bbPress Docs state that bbPress uses the exact same Plugin API as WordPress, yet the above would work in WordPress, but silently fail in bbPress.

any light in this would be much appreciated.

Might of been answered before but I cant seem to find it on the boards. I apologize if this is common, I might of not used the best wording.

I installed bbPress on a test wordpress running 3.2.1 (or most current). Installed just fine and I proceeded to test it from a users perspective. I added a login and register links and pages, work just fine. However when I login or register, the function will login or create a user but the new URL causes a 404.

I’m using XAMPP on my personal machine and the directory of my wordpress install is

localhost/wep/wordpress

That works just fine as it should. However the URL that returns on successful login or registration displays as :

localhost/wep/wordpress/wep/wordpress/login/

which obviously throws a 404 as it’s non existant.

I had a phpbb install in the wordpress folder before I installed bbPress and believe I might of changed the folder path on install. I tried deleting bbPress to reinstall but it just gives me an activate/deactivate/delete option.

I’m assuming there’s somewhere in the plugin I can change that root folder pathing or whatever configuration is causing this error but I’m unsure of what and where.

Any help is appreciated.
