bbPress.org

I have searched for hours and I can’t make sense of how to customize a forum when using bbpress that was installed as a WP plug in.

I want to do two things:

1) get rid of the part that says “This forum contains 2 topics and 3 replies, and was last updated by John John 8 hours ago.”

2) I want to make the forum page wider than the default page width for my WordPress theme.

This seems like these should be very simple customization, but I just can’t figure out how to do it. Can someone point me to where I could learn step by step how to do this?

thanks,

Tom

I am a relative novice, so forgive me if this is posted in the wrong place. I searched and didn’t see an appropriate topic.

On my bbPress Forum page, I have used shortcodes as follows:

bbp-lost-pass]

The topic index overlays other text on the page, specifically, “Viewing 2 topics – 1 through 2 of 2.”

The url is http://bulimiatips.org/forum-2/ if you wish to see what I am talking about.

Can anyone suggest what the problem might be and how to fix it?

Thanks.

In one of my forums that has a super sticky and regular sticky, the super sticky is below the regular sticky.

Alphabetically, the regular sticky starts with [Ve] and the super sticky starts with [Vi]. Could that be causing the issue?

I just noticed on of my topics is running the words off to the right and under the side panel. I would assume this is one of my plugins but it only happens on two of the topics. Foliage reports http://jeff-foliage.com/forums/topic/foliage-reports/ and http://jeff-foliage.com/forums/topic/favorite-foliage-routes/

The rest of my topics both with and without pictures all line up on the right side and don’t slide under the side panel…

Any ideas? do you think this is a plugin causing problems and most importantly has anyone else seen it?

I’m running the current beta RC-4 and I’m working in Chrome and Firefox and IE9 and all show the same thing and the box for the posts are running out of room…

When trying to edit a topic via the forum, there is a dropdown box to move the topic. However, on my install this box only displays five options, when there are many more forums than what is displayed.

I moved a Topic from Forum-A into Forum-B, and it’s still showing up in Forum-A (and Forum-B, where it belongs).

I can’t for the life of me figure out how to stop it from showing in Forum-A. I’ve tried to sticky it, but it still shows up in both forums.

Hi all,

I have searched the forums but can find nothing that discusses permalinks for the latest version install of WordPress and the BBpress plugin.

This is the issue: I have set up WordPress and then installed the BBpress plugin via the plugin installer.

I have added add_theme_support( ‘bbpress’ ); to my theme and then built all the template pages required so that bbpress functions.

Here is the issue which I need help with:

With the Permalinks set to DEFAULT the integration works with no issues at all. However when I turn on pretty permalinks whilst the main forum page and topic pages work the USER and USER edit pages return a page not found.

I have looking at the SINGLE SLUG area and adjusted but I just resolve the 404 errors for these particular areas.

The one thing I did try is to set up a page called USER with he BBPRESS code. THis worked for the View page but not for the edit page.

Any help appreciated.

Here’s my dilemma:

I need to add a forum section to one of my sites ASAP. I have experience using the stand alone version of bbPress as I use it for two different sites and I feel comfortable using it. I’ve been testing the plugin version, which looks great but honestly I don’t have the time right now to look into it very much and I’m feeling a bit frustrated trying to make it work as I want to.

My question is: Should I go with the stand alone version until things are stable enough and then migrate to the plugin version or am I getting myself into more trouble in the long run?

Your advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi guys ,

I couldn’t install v2 rc4 in my wordpress (latest version with mysql5 and php5). I have this error:

Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 32505856) (tried to allocate 77824 bytes) in /plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-common-template.php on line 1572

Any chance to resolve this problem without increasing my php memory? I just increased it up to 40MB with php.ini because of other plugins and my host (1&1) told me that 40 MB is the max they allow.

Thanks in advance

I think it would be neat (and in some cases, easier) to modify a topic’s stickiness via the Dashboard under the Topics Dashboard Panel.
