When I first started installing bbPress for a client, here are some issues that I faced. I’m giving you the solutions so you don’t have to go thru the entire process of searching for an answer.
- What is the link to the theme directory?
In Wordpress if you need to link to the theme directory you just use the tag:
bloginfo(template_directory)
For the moment there is no such option in bbPress. The basic documentation does not provide this very essential piece of information. After much research this is what I found:
< ?php bb_option('uri'); ?>my-templates/your-template-directory-name

bbPress is what you can call a sister script of Wordpress. It is a lightweight forum script which is just as flexible and adaptable as Wordpress. There are lots of plugins available that add to its functionality with new ones being added every day.
The downside to this script is that there is no official documentation available. And that can have you going around in circles for quite a while especially if you are new to bbPress.

The problem with being a web designer is that when you get tired of your blog design and want to change it, you can. And I seriously need to stop doing that considering I just re-designed less than a month back.
I just wasn’t too happy with that design, though. It was just too different from my business site DotsnDashes. This one isn’t exactly a replica either but it has similarities and uses some of the basic design features from that website.
I’m thinking I’ll stick to this design for a bit.
So what do you think?

A while back my cousin asked me to read Twilight by Stephanie Meyer.
She asked me to make sure not to read any reviews nor see the trailer for the upcoming movie or it will just spoil the book for me. She had loved the book and was totally obsessed with it. Her words were: I am having a mid life crisis – being so obsessed with this book. I had no idea what she meant.
So I finally went ahead and read the book.
The beginning was alright and it got interesting by the second, third chapter. Halfway through the book, I thought it was good enuff to keep me engrossed and to keep reading but I still had no idea why my cousin was so crazy about it.

In that case let me present to you the The Non-Designer’s Design Book
This has to be one of the most recommended design book of all times.
Why?
It is a very simple read. It is great for beginners and acts as a good reference for designers who have been at it a bit.
It offers design guidelines with great examples on how to properly utilize them. While, at the same time there are examples of designs that do not follow the guidelines and still look great!
Bottom line: Design guidelines are just that – guidelines. They are not rules that have to be followed at all costs. The book does however, warn you against common design mistakes that amateur designer’s usually make.
