BuddyPress.org

It is realy a native bbPress theme

But they are to lame to release it …

@Renefyrster: I’m not in my home computer where I have access to my codes but I remember that I modify the header.php file…

There’s a part in that file where you will see listed all buttons of the top menu enclosed in LI tags… Those tags are only shown if the functions they are trying to expose to the user do exists in your installation (I mean, if you have not installed Groups module, the Group link won’t be showed and so on).

Well… You need to do something similar with you forum link… I remember I did something like this:

<?php

if (function_exists(‘any_bbpress_function_I_cant_remember_any_at_the_momento)) { ?>

<li <?php if (is_page(‘Forums’)) echo ‘class=”selected”‘; ?>>

< a href=”url to your blog”>Forums

<?php { ?>

This code might be wrong because I don’t have the right code here… but that’s the idea…

Hope it helps.

Please help me

bbPress is an absolute pain to work with. Its themeing process is unlike the rest of the Automatic family, very idiosyncratic and frustrating if you try to tackle it from scratch.

But…

I discovered that Refueled.Net makes a \\\”blank\\\” bbPress theme that is a snap to customize. Head over to: http://www.refueled.net/free-bbpress-themes/ and install one of those, then go in and make your custom mods there.

Easypeazy.

The bbpress forum install isn’t part of the admin menu. You can put it there by modifying the menu though. I’m guessing that the second question means that you’d like your bbpress theme to look like your bp theme. Yes, you can. You have to create a new bbpress theme for yourself.

You can find or create any theme you want for bp and bbpress. There isn’t a bbpress theme that looks like the default bp theme yet. As far as I know.

One minor point.

If you every reinstall & have implemented the Groups Forums you need to clean up the bp-groups-meta table otherwise you cannot turn the forums on for groups that have previously had forums. It took me about a day to figure that little “feature” out.

Dear All

I set up forum step by step. But it have a problem

BuddyPress no active, I can create a group but I can post in this page. However, when i join indirect to BBpress forum, I see group which I have created on BuddyPress page.

Moreover, when i post a new topic in BBpress forum, it have problem, but when i conect again, this topic showed in this forum.

Please help me! Thanks

@Modemlooper Looks like you are using a non-alpha version of bbPress. The most recent alpha release is required to get this to work as it says on line 13 of the readme file:

You *must* be running the latest alpha of bbPress and at least WPMU version 2.7 for forum integration to work.

After you try with the alpha release you should see the XLMRPC options.

Next time .. Install bbPress in his own database, that also works just fine in combination with wordpress (MU) …

And, a deinstallation is then just a click of the mouse

If you just delete the bb_ tables, and remove the files who belong to bbPress, then you are just fine. There are no specific tables (as far i can see) who are used by buddypress in combination with bbPress. If you ever plan to install bbPress again, just install it in a seperate database, that also just works fine in combination with WordPress <> bbPress

So:

1: Delete bb_ tables

2: Delete the bbPress files.

And youre actually done with the uninstall

There is no ‘uninstall routine’. This isn’t windows.

I wouldn’t touch the tables unless you know what you are doing. They aren’t going to hurt anything. It all depends on how you’ve installed and configured wpmu and bbpress. Delete the software for bbpress and call it a day.

Have you followed every step of the readme and are using bbPress 1.0a ?

Make sure you have not missed the part about editing your bb-config.php file with the “user-switching” line.

other than just dropping the bb_ tables and removing the files? What are you looking for?

Hi, you mean in the buddypress front end or bb front end? Do you install this plugin: http://code.ourcommoninterest.org/2009/02/14/buddypress-group-forums-for-bbpress/

It did the same thing to me before I’ve installed it on bp front end now its working but not in bbpress!

Remember guys (and I realize this is no excuse) but neither BuddyPress nor bbPress are even 1.0 yet. As soon as function calls and display functions are finalized and tweaked for a stable 1.0 release, you’ll see tons of themes and templates and frameworks.

The opportunity currently exists for anyone with the time and motivation to swoop in and start blasting out themes for both platforms, but they would do it knowing that they may have to go back and redo some things after 1.0 is out.

I think right now everyone is waiting for the ball to drop, because no one wants to do the same work twice. I’d love to release my bbPress theme, but I have 0 time to answer questions about it or support it, and that’s not fair to anyone either.

Make sense?

Not everyone is using ‘deep integration’. There’s other wonderful whackyness involved in that. Don’t think you are using that are you? Anyway group forums is built on the xmlrpc comm for talking to bbpress. It’s what we got that works in all installs.
