Make the forum pages full-width

Published on April 4th, 2015 by davidnsfw

I tried making my forums page full-width, but didn’t manage, so if you could help, it would be great.

Here is my page.php file:

<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="body-wrapper">
	<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
	<div id="content-wrapper">
		<div id="content">
			<div id="post-header">
				<h1 class="story-title" itemprop="name"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
			</div><!--post-header-->
			<div id="content-main">
				<div id="content-main-inner">
				<div id="post-area" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Article" <?php post_class(); ?>>
					<?php $mvp_featured_img = get_option('mvp_featured_img'); if ($mvp_featured_img == "true") { ?>
						<?php if(get_post_meta($post->ID, "mvp_video_embed", true)): ?>
							<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "mvp_video_embed", true); ?>
						<?php else: ?>
							<?php $mvp_show_hide = get_post_meta($post->ID, "mvp_featured_image", true); if ($mvp_show_hide == "hide") { ?>
							<?php } else { ?>
								<?php if (  (function_exists('has_post_thumbnail')) && (has_post_thumbnail())  ) { ?>
								<div id="featured-image" class="post-section" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Article">
									<?php $thumb = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID), 'post-thumb' ); ?>
									<img itemprop="image" src="<?php echo $thumb['0']; ?>" />
								</div><!--featured-image-->
								<?php if(get_post_meta($post->ID, "mvp_photo_credit", true)): ?>
								<div id="featured-caption" class="post-section">
									<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "mvp_photo_credit", true); ?>
								</div><!--featured-caption-->
								<?php endif; ?>
								<?php } ?>
							<?php } ?>
						<?php endif; ?>
					<?php } ?>
					<div id="content-area" class="post-section">
						<?php the_content(); ?>
						<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
					</div><!--content-area-->
				</div><!--post-area-->

			</div><!--content-main-->

Setup problems

Published on April 4th, 2015 by Beardy123

Hi there, I followed your setup documentation, but stumbled at the first hurdle.

I created a forum, then used the shortcode to add the forum index to my site.

I want to use the Public viewing, registered user posting setup (no idea where to set this up)

But when I go to the forum index page (http://makermentors.org/forum/) I get the message:

You do not have permission to view this.

Yes the forum is set to public. I thought the public can see the forum? but you have to be registered to participate.

Please help,

Main categories option?

Published on April 4th, 2015 by ebunny3k

Noticed that lots of users are interested about main categories options, like phpbb, vbulletin, and other popular forums are using. And years later there is still nothing???

There is still no options or plugins to make my bbpress look like this one: http://tamrielfoundry.com/forums/ with different main categories like: “General Discussions”, “mechanics discussion”, “player factions”, etc.

When bbpress team will ad that option?

Full Width Problem with page.php

Published on April 4th, 2015 by Svend Rugaard

I have this theme from ThemeFuse called GameZone, and every changes i have made since the original i usually have fix by my self somehow, but the other day i was tired of PHPBB and converted and move it over completly to BBPress, and it work as is should i got some of the css fix so its almost as ret of the page, the only problem is i found out even i use the themes own “widget” deattachtment for pages i need to be with out side bars Like Guides etc.

Then the BBPress have put my finish touch on hold for the last 36 hrs and i am really irritated over it , because why should a thing i literally find 100 of topics about this problem. Reeally think it is weird there isnt being any solution implented as part of bbpress.

Anyway my forum here is correct size in the “front-page”

1. Frontpage : http://www.playstationforum.dk/debat-forum/
2. Sub-page : http://www.playstationforum.dk/debat/kategori/playstationforum-dk/

As yoy see the sub-page dont have full width even i have remove made a page.php and copy it over to my child theme and rename it to bbpress.php and remmove

<?php get_sidebar();?>

This is mention alot of places and everything there is sidebar related, but i can really not figure out what because no matter what i remove it either remove background completly or remove the sites build up. And i have made a Page for it and use the shortcode. – Still nothing – Hope someone can help. I actually change to bbpress because i though the hardest part would actually import everything from PHPBB

here is my code as it is now

<?php 
global $is_tf_blog_page,$post;
$id_post = $post->ID; 
if(tfuse_options('blog_page') != 0 && $id_post == tfuse_options('blog_page')) $is_tf_blog_page = true;
get_header();
if ($is_tf_blog_page) die(); 
?>
<?php $sidebar_position = tfuse_sidebar_position(); ?>
<?php tfuse_shortcode_content('before');?>
<div class="main-row content-row">
    <div class="container">
        <?php if ($sidebar_position == 'left') : ?>
           <div class="middle-main sidebar-left">

How to: registration and login

Published on April 4th, 2015 by martinrice

I’m building a new website that, for the first time for me, will require registrations and logins for a forum it’s hosting with bbPress. Here is what I see as the process:

1. A person comes to the site and can browse it just like any site.
2. He/she can go to the various forums and read what’s there.
3. If he/she wants to either answer a question or create a question (topic) he/she will have to login.
4. If the person is not registered, he/she will have to do so.
5. Once registered, every time the user visits again login will be required to participate in the forums.
6. The user will have to be allowed to change his/her email address.
7. The user will have to be allowed to unsubscribe.

I’m not sure how to set this up. I’m using WP 4.1.1 using the Divi theme. I’d appreciate any information on how to set this all up or links to information that will explain how to do it.

TIA,
Martin

Get rid of target="_blank" in topic page links?

Published on April 3rd, 2015 by slinkydink

Hi there, could someone help me figure out where to stop my bbpress topic and breadcrumb links from defaulting to target=”_blank”?

When I’m on my forum archive page — or anywhere else on the site — everything is fine, but once I start navigating to topic pages, all of the links start popping up in new windows: http://pafoic.org/forums/

I’m running WordPress 4.1.1 with a Customizr Pro child theme, and bbPress version 2.5.6

I feel like the solution should be somewhere in plugins > bbpress > includes > topics but I’m just not finding it. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

No forum visible after import phpbb

Published on April 3rd, 2015 by markham1421

I’m sure I’m missing something obvious but… I imported my phpbb forum and it appeared to work, then went through the ‘repair’ steps. I see no front end forum. Do I have to change something else?

I didn’t import users because I’m really just trying to save the old forum posts for archival and reference purposes – I don’t want all the old users in the new forum.

That possible?

Forum Topics Not Linking

Published on April 3rd, 2015 by meganme517

I am sure I messed up the settings somewhere but my forum doesn’t link to the correct areas. Any suggestions would be appreciated:

I have tried uninstalling and resetting up without any changes.

Thank you,
Megan
