I am not tech savvy by any means, we had a programmer develop a WP based site about a year ago, we want to incorporate a bbpress blog into this, so I created a new test site so I didn’t botch it (thank god because I DID botch it).
The test site is www.hersheyicecream.com/forum
I installed bbpress (www.hersheyicecream.com/forum/bbpress) and went through the integration process because I want it to pull from my WP user listing, unfortunately right after I did this all hell broke loose.
At this point I am not only showing up on the forum I created as Anonymous Unregistered, it also will not allow me to retrieve my password saying no user exists, and I have NO other users. It also will not allow me to log in to my site www.hersheyicecream.com/forum, instead it redirects me (not sure how) to my actual site www.hersheyicecream.com/dealers…
I have no way to access my “.com/forum” WP site and no way to log in to my “.com/forum/bbpress” forum.
HELP!
Anyone know why the time stamp of the first post in a thread would be off (by three hours), while the time stamps on all subsequent posts in the same thread are correct?
Same is happening on the front page. The last post time (using the Forum Last Poster plugin) for the first listed forum is off (by three hours) but all subsequent forum last post times are correct.
Any ideas?
Starting a new thread here at the request of John James for any issues with iThemes Builder.
Some information from my previous report:
QUOTE
Yes, the actual shortcodes themselves appear on the published page on the site and I think I should have said, I am using iThemes Builder with a child theme, up to date version of WP..
Also, the actual forum when you click to view it from the main index one (which is appearing fine and where it should) is appearing at the top of the site above the header, which is why I am trying the shortcode route. In my case though I have used “Widget Content” which comes with builder to create the header area.
I have two other plugins that produced the same kind of thing, in that they appeared fine where they were meant to, “sexybookmarks” at the end of a post BUT also would appear in any location I had used “Widget Content” which was the header area and sidebar areas and also a paypal plugin and to get around that I added this code to the end of my child css:
.widget-content .paypal-form {
display: none;
}
Which stopped it appearing in content widget areas, so the first thing I tried for this was the same code but changing the “.paypal-form to one for bbPress – I had used firebug lite (chrome) to try and find the correct name that should go there and I don’t think I found the right name.
Yep shortcode helper would be good, thanks John.. do you need any more info?

Hope that is enough information for my particular problem John?

Halo guys, i tried all sorts of SMTP plugins for BBPRESS but none are working. So is there any way to disable the email verification registration. I want a direct registration method. No verification
Assertion:
The problem with forums is that one must read/browse/scroll thru all the information you don’t want to see… until you then find what you have been looking for.
Question:
Is there a theme for either WordPress or BBPress that would like a Microsoft File System Explorer provide access to BBPress?
Q2:
Is there an inherent limitation in the BBPress database or Theme or Widget Plugin that would disallow a developer from implementing a theme with these types of widgets?
Thanks,
TELESOFT
Very excited to try out the plugin… installation went great!
Some weirdness though, in the “breadcrumb” trail that is created:
Forums > forumname
The “Forums” link leads to a page that isn’t there… /forums
I am assuming this is supposed to be the forum “home” page, but I’ve tried the install twice to no avail.
Any advice on this?
In the old version of bbPress, I could redirect to a WordPress user profile (or BuddyPress profile) by editing template files and changing profile links to:
<a href="<?php echo get_user_slug( get_post_author_id() ); ?>"><?php post_author( get_post_id() ); ?></a>
Doesn’t seem like this will work with the bbPress plugin. Is there some way I can do this with the new version? Thanks!
I’m trying this:
<?php echo bb_get_avatar( $topic->get_topic_author(), '30');?>
But no luck? What am I doing wrong?
Using the Alahualpa 3.6.6 theme and bbPress beta plugin. All seems to install correctly. I can add forums and topics, save them, edit them but if I try to view them I get a blank white page.
It is a theme specific error.
I have downloaded the BBpress for My WP site but can not get it to work. the plugin appeared on my left hand bar but when it is activated it basically crashes the whole site. How can I get it to basically be another section of my site?
