    Hi there,

    I'm using bbPress as well. I love the forum for its ease of use, SEO friendliness & sitemap support, and of course, the support of one of the largest blog/ CMS communities out there - Wordpress.

    I've gotten the forum pretty much fined tuned to my liking, with one exception. I can't seem to set images (via the Allow Images plugin) to have a max width. In other words, when users post an image, and it's larger than 500px or so, it will overflow and break my layout.

    FYI - I'm also using the bbCode buttons and bbCode lite plugins - so that's how users add images - by using the IMG tag button.

    So, is there any way to set a max-width restriction on the images, or have them resize automatically if they're too large?

    Good question. While there was work done on an Image Resizer module, that module doesn't seem to work correctly or be up to date. However, there is a way for you to set a style declaration within your bbCode Lite module that will set a max width for images your users create in bbPress.

    Within your BBcode Lite plugin, edit the following file: BBcode-lite.php, on line 46 (additions in bold):

    foreach($bbcode_lite['complex'] as $bbcode=>$html){
    if($bbcode!='url') {$text = preg_replace('/\['.$bbcode.'\](.+?)\[\/'.$bbcode.'\]/is','<'.$html[0].' '.$html[1].'="$1" style="max-width:463px">',$text);}

    For our bbPress theme, the 463px fits perfectly within the layout. You may need to adjust this value for your particular bbPress template.
