Hi Newest,
Having sharing enabled at replies will make no sense because it will also share the url of the topic (replies are posted at the same url as topic)
Follow the steps mentioned below to enable social sharing at your topics:
1. Open “/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/CURRENT_THEME/single-topic.php” (located in your WordPress root folder).
2. Search following code:-
<?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘bbpress/content’, ‘single-topic’ ); ?>
3. To display Social Sharing – Horizontal interface, place following code before (if you want to show it before the topic content) and after (if you want to show it after the topic content) the code searched in step 2:-
<div class=”loginRadiusHorizontalSharing”></div>
<div style=”clear:both”></div>
4. To display Social Sharing – Vertical interface, place following code after the code searched in step 2:-
<div class=”loginRadiusVerticalSharing”></div>
5. Save the file back. Replace existing file, if prompted.
Note: For above steps to work, Social Sharing must be enabled from “Social Sharing” section at LoginRadius page in your WordPress Admin panel.
Thanks but this Doesn’t seem to be working 🙁
In my install, the for single-topic.php is located at :
/…./wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/extras
Edited the same as above.. no go …using WP 3.8.1 with zAlive Theme and bbPress v. 2.5.3..
Social Sharing is enabled .. in fact on the posts the Share Bar comes up and I can share.
Appreciate all help …
Hi Newest,
We looked into your issue and in order to resolve the issue, please find the template which is generating topics at your website and apply the steps mentioned in previous reply to that template.
Hope this helps!
How do I find the template which is generating topics ? As you can see , I am “newest” 🙂
Pl advise, thanks
I have a bbpress forum and I used the addThis plugin.
This allowed me to have social sharing icons on topics | pages etc.
Go here to see what I mean:

Hi Cubefeed,
As you are using other plugin addthis, not our plugin. We can not tell you where the issue is with that plugin.
You can use our plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/simplified-social-share/
And follow the steps mentioned in first reply of this query to display Social Sharing interface at bbpress topics wherever you want.
Do let us know if you face any issue.
