I currently have BuddyPress 1.5.3.1 + BBPress 2.0.2 on a WordPress site. I use the site-wide forum BBPress only (BBPress Forum only, not BuddyPress forum) on my site.

Is there a plugin available for BBPress 2.x to enable rating for forum topics?

I was close when I found Rating-Widget (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/rating-widget/) as the description said that it supported BP’s BBPress. However, I was unable to figure out the way to turn it on for a BBPress forum.

Can you advise if you know any plugins that can rate forum topics on a BBPress 2.x platform?

There are several things I’d like to do. For instance, for the forums, I want to change one particular CSS element of my theme. My WP theme allows me to do this by providing the CSS in a page header variable for the page. But don’t know how to do this for bbPress.

I have just installed bbPress and this plugin.

I activated the plugin and in the bbPress widget, I placed bbPress search widget.

When I go to the forums page, the bbPress-specific sidebar doesn’t seem to appear – at least I don’t see the bbPress search widget. Also, the CMS/normal sidebar doesn’t seem to be removed – the sidebar seems exactly like the sidebar for the rest of the site.

Finally, I tried selecting single.php as default forum wrapper. But this doesn’t seem to make any difference at all – I still see the *normal* 3-column/2-sidebar page when I visit forums.

Please help!

P.S. Searching on bbpress.org plugin browser does not show this plugin

I am using the bbPress WP plugin. Where should I place the language files?

The only reference to language files I could find in documentation is for the standalone version. https://bbpress.org/documentation/installation/ and says the files need to be placed in “my-languages”

I tried placing the .po and .mo files in bbp-langauges, languages and my-languages folders within the bbpress plugin directory. None of this worked.

Please help!

Hi,

Apologies, I’m a total noob at this… Sorry also if this is a bit long winded, not sure how best to explain it.

this is my site: http://www.fluvaledgeforum.com

…and this is where my forums lived: http://www.fluvaledgeforum.com/forums/forum/fluval-edge-journals-and-photos/

I am getting really confused…

I had a page on the site titled ‘Forum’ which I was going to redirect, using the redirect plugin, to the bbpress page listing all the forums…

Now for the hard part.

For some reason when you click on the ‘forum’ in the bbpress breadcrumb… it was taking you to the page I was going to redirect. I was thinking that should take you to the root of the forums…. i.e. a list of all of them

At first I thought it was because it had the same URL…. so I changed the page that I was going to redirect, and the assoc. link title to ‘redirect’ – just to test this theory. Alas the root of the forums breadcrumb still took you to this page…http://www.fluvaledgeforum.com/redirect/

Then I thought I might have messed a setting up, so I deleted bbpress and reinstalled the plugin.

Now I have tried adding another forum… according to the admin page it’s published at the following location: http://www.fluvaledgeforum.com/forums/forum/general-aquarium-discussion/

But that comes up as page not found when you click ‘view forum’ in the admin area.

Now I am stumped.

Questions then:

1) how do I get the forums working again with a top level that lists all the forums on the site?

2) how do I add forums to the menu?

Thanks for your help with this…

Hi,

I’m running bbpress Version 2.0.2. I am thinking about trying out some of the plugins but I am not able to install any of them..

I have created a folder called “my-plugins” in the root of the bbpress folder.

However, I cant see anywhere to actually install the plugins? The documentation says “Click the plugins tab”. However, in WordPress all I can see is “Forums”, “Replies” and “Topics” with no “Plugins” tab?

I am logged in as the admin account (the same account that installed the forums).

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction

Thanks

We just recently switched over to bbPress, but seem to have one nagging bug I can solve. On our topic freshness the time is incorrect and is showing several hours even when a post was made just a few seconds ago. I double checked the wordpress setup for time, but that is set correctly. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Here is a screenshot of a brand new post showing a freshness of 7 hours (which I’m guess is due to us being GMT -7 for Denver, CO.

I’m uploading a new bbpress theme to:

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bb-templates

Now what? I go into my admin panel of the site, and go to themes, and see these errors:

1. Your active theme does not include bbPress template files. Your forums are using the default styling included with bbPress.

2. Broken Themes

The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.

bbPress (Twenty Ten)

The parent theme is missing. Please install the “twentyten” parent theme.

Where do I go to activate the new theme? Am I putting it in the right place?

Site is running the latest wordpress and the latest bbpress plugin.

Please help.

Thanks and god bless.
