get_template_part conflict with bbPress

[karlo]

I have run in to what must be fixed on this forum https://github.com/themeblvd/Theme-Blvd-bbPress-Patch/issues/1

But how?

My fix:
I put content-search.php from bbPress in to /child_theme_folder/bbpress/
Then content-search.php from Jump Start in to /child_theme_folder
In Jump Starts content-search.php I add a check for bbPress, if yes skip to its own content-results.php

if ( is_bbpress() ) {
	get_template_part( 'bbpress/content', 'search' );
}

seems to work so why bother thinking but there is a better way? – if this even holds water. Only checked with 2 posts 🙂

That bbPress patch plugin isn’t something I’ve created yet. At this point, it’s an issue I’m aware of, but I haven’t gotten around to tackling it yet. What you’re doing seems like a good option, though.

I would love to see this fixed officially but this worked for now.

Until then and depending on how much you fiddle it might be best to improve bbPress conditional, what I did is not enough. If you disable bbPress, site go poof.

if ( function_exists( 'is_bbpress' ) && is_bbpress() ) {
...stuff...
}

format is better.

And for Jump Start widget areas where you cant use function_exists this seems to nail bbPress

get_post_type() == 'topic' || get_post_type() == 'forum'

If you use double quotes conditional works but when you edit you only see get_post_type() ==, I guess it breaks – may be local issue, I see sample code use double quotes, but single quotes works 100%.
