How do I tell bbpress which template to use so I can customize the sidebar or NOT use a sidebar?
For example, it seems to use the default sidebar, but I want it to use my custom sidebar or none at all. There’s not forum page created so I can’t seem to figure out where to change it.
I’m sure it’s simple, but thanks again for any help!
How do I password protect a Category? I would like to simply have a single password for a category.
So for example Category 1 is Public, but Category 2 requires the password, “secretcode45”
I’m sure this is a simple thing I’m overlooking, but thanks for any help!
When I click on the forum homepage navigation link then the navigation link stays as ‘active’ as expected.
However, if I click on any sub-forum or topic, then the navigation is no longer in the ‘active’ [current-menu-item] state.
I somewhat understand why this is happening, but wanted to know if there is a way of fixing this issue.
Is there any way to say if_bbpress() then force the ‘active’ state on the forum navigation link?
hello,
I try desperately to create some kind of widget for my blog with last forum entries .
I think query_posts was indicated because it is simple and effective.
here is the code I use to fully control the design of my widget.
<div id=”lastreply”>
<?php
query_posts(“post_type=reply”);
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
?>
<div class=”post”>
<div class=”thumb”><?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_id() , 60 ); ?></div>
<h4>” rel=”bookmark”><?php the_title(); ?></h4>
<small>De <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?> <span class=”red”>♥</span> <span class=”tag”><?php the_tags(‘#’,’, #’); ?></span></small>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div><!– fin de post –>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div><!– last reply–>
I have 3 problems so that my poor php skills prevents me to solve.
1 / the title is not good, it starts with “reply to” it would have been clearer to the title of the topic directly.
2 / the link isn’t the link to topic but the link for the answer!
3 / but it’s going to be warmer, I wish to join the last replies to the last comment into a single widget, except that query_posts doesn’t work with the comments ^ ^
would you have a little time to devote to my request? Thank you in advance.
While I can access the forum no problem being the admin of the site all my users can’t, it says they are not authorised even when they are logged in. Is there a way I can make all logged in users able to access the forum?
Thanks.
I currently have only one forum. Inside that forum, it says:
Viewing 5 topics – 1 through 7 (of 7 total)
Um… am I missing something? It’s showing 5 topics, but says there are 7 topics and all are showing? Totally confused.
Is there a setting somewhere I need to change? I can’t figure this one out.
Thanks!

Sorry if this has been gone over thousands of times but i used bbpress a long time ago and decided recently that its something i need now, but i need a standalone forum i dont need it integrated with wordpress.
I see that both the new plugin and the old standalone are available but how long till the stand alone is discontinued?
I installed Buddypress. Everything works great.
I also installed the group forum in the buddypress settings panel. But than i realized it isn’t realy a public forum.
So i installed the wide one (bbpress 2.0) actived the plugin, i can make forums, topics, reply in the dashboard. but i cannot view them on the website.
I can go to a recent topic but i only see the Title of the topic and the message. I don’t see icons, no forum table, nothing. (see link below)
http://www.joeristallaert.be/comm/forums/forum/testing-new-forum/
Do i need to create pages? if so, what kind of content/code i need to insert.
I also don’t understand the settings : Archive Slugs and single slugs. what do in need to fill in, in those fields.
I tried changing permalinks, but i can’t otherwise my full buddypress won’t work.
btw It should work with my Theme. Because the official Demo of this theme bbpress is integrated.
Thank you.
Hello I just activated the Bbpress plugin to my word press Thesis theme, but I can’t even see the Forum on my pages…..The Thesis Blog seems to “dominate” or override the Bbpress plgun Forum. The menu link I assigned to the forum shows up as the thesis blog not like the bbpress plugin orum. Can someone give some some guidance on how to integrate bbpress plugin with Thesis??
On a side note, I was able to set up a bbpress plugin Forum on another theme (Awake)but I cant seem to make it work with Thesis.
Please help! Thanks
Installed bbpress. Add new forum but no action button. Same with new topic. Using Atahualpa theme. Turned off all other plugins and went to the bbPress (Twenty Ten) 1.2 theme with same results.
On the add new forum page, I see the text box, title, etc. and then forum attributes, topic attributes, reply attributes and slug – nothing to do with publish.
