Hello,
Does bbPress have a built-in RESTful web API? Basically, I would like to integrate it into a custom GWT site that I’ve written. The front-end is in Java (converted to Javascript by GWT) and the back-end is in PHP. I would like a forum software that already has a web API and where I don’t need to write the wrapper myself.
Thank you for your time,
z.
I know that I can use ‘show_stickies’ => false as an argument in the topics loop and it works.
Now.. how do I remove just super-stickies from the loop, while keeping regular stickies true?
Knowing JJ, I’m sure it’s there somewhere, but I just plain don’t see an available argument that I can hook into.
*planning on removing super from loop and using custom loop to treat super more like announcements as other forum software does.
I’ve mentioned having problems logging into this website before and wanted to create a topic as a reminder to the devs.
After trying multiple times with multiple browsers today, I finally had to reboot and then try multiple times again before I was logged in. I am NEVER able to show as logged in on the page I actually login to.
*view a specific topic, login on that page, I am never logged into that page. I have to login on a page that I never plan on replying to.
I’m not sure, but it seems to be getting much worse lately. Might explain why there is no traffic on these forums?
**Another annoyance:
When I create a new topic, it does not show up on the forum homepage for a few mins. Also if I reply to a topic, the topic is not bumped up on the homepage for a few mins.
Is there some kind of bad cache script running or something?
Hi,
I just converted my phpBB database into bbPress with ForumConverter plugin. Everything works fine, but when I look at the forum widget on dashboard, there is “0 Forums”. But I have 4 forums already. How can I change that to show 4?
Thanks.
I have an issues with webkit browsers that I can solve. Please help.
In Firefox, the forums display correctly, but in Safari/Chrome the contents of each column are displaced to the right by one column. For instance, there is a four column theme for the forum. From right to left: Forum title, topic count, posts, and freshness. The name of the forum, instead of being displayed in the “forum title” column, is instead being displaced in the column to its right, in the “topic count” forum.

When I go to click next step I get the following error.
The website encountered an error while retrieving http://www.climberism.com/forum/bb-admin/install.php. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.
I configured the bb-config.php with the correct database information but still no luck.
Any help would make my day
but I do not understand the wording of a step for stand alone installation of bbPress 2.0. I’ve downloaded it, and added it to my FTP, but I don’t get this step:
4.Visit the intended URL of the bbPress site
what does this mean? I mean, i get the idea of what it means, go to mysite.forum.com if that’s where i want the forum. okay great, but that doesn’t do anything by itself.
Do I need to set up a blank page for the forum? And if so, how does that do anything for the installation process? I feel like there’s more steps here, something obvious I’m missing, but i’m not sure what.
thanks!
Is there a way to have the main forum page exactly as the main forum page of this website? I mean: two colums:
1) column left: with the “Forums” and the “Hot Tags”
2) column right with the “topics”
Is that a theme that I have to upload or there is another way to do that?
Thanks in advance
Dario
Has anyone been able to get bbPress 2.0 and the Thesis theme to work together?
I have tried a number of things but I just can’t get it to work.
If I do nothing and rely on the default theme the forum is totally unusable. Not only is there no styling but none of the functionality works (no links appear for a start!).
I have tried creating a child theme as per instructions on this forum, tried using shortcodes and I have also tried copying the relevant parts of the default theme over to the thesis theme folder.
This seems to get slightly better results in the sense that I get the forum functionality, but there is no styling. You can see my current attempt here:

It seems to me like part of the theme’s framework is somehow breaking bbPress, there must be some fundamental incompatibility in there somewhere – but I really don’t know enough to debug this.
I have asked over at the Thesis support forum but there seems to be little understanding of what’s going on over there. Is there anyone over here who has any suggestions?
Hi,
I’m currently implementing bbPress compatibility support for my theme (Graphene). I chose to go the route of using the default theme that comes with bbPress 2.0, and just add additional styles to make bbPress compatible with my theme.
Since I’m not using the add_theme_support( 'bbpress' ) switch in my theme, bbPress displays a persistent nag in the Appearance section of WP Admin:
Your active theme does not include bbPress template files. Your forums are using the default styling included with bbPress.
How can I disable this nag? It doesn’t matter that the forums are using the default styling included with bbPress, since the additional custom stylesheet I implemented in the theme takes care of integrating the styling into my theme’s styles.
Thanks!
