Yes. The sidebar is set to default, same as my other pages but brings up that strange message. Also my website logo is removed which is also my home button. Any ideas?

I’m sure this question has been posted before but most of the ones regarding this topic that I found were rather old…

I am trying to remove the sidebar and make my forums full width. Any ideas?

The website I am trying to accomplish this on is: https://goldcountrymarket.com/forums/

Hello everybody.
I am using WordPress 6.1.1 with Twenty Twelve 3.8 theme to set up bbPress 2.6.9. The question is – how to disable theme Sidebar on bbPress pages only (forums, forum, topic etc.), but leave it visible on the rest pages of the site?
Thank you very much in advance for answering.

I know many fellows talked about how to remove a sidebar from a topic page, but they all are too complicated for me. So, I’m wondering whether I can remove a sidebar from a topic page by editing “funtions.php”.
For example, the url of a topic page includes string “topic”, so the following code (not completed yet) will work?

function bbPress_sidebar_hide() {
	$url = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
	if(strpos($url,'topic') !== false){
            
        // here is the code for removing or hiding a sidebar which I don't know 
  
	}

Hello,

Thank you for such great plugin, very promising so far.

I have a few questions regarding login/ register. Yes, I have searched through the documentations and support but could not find any answer regarding these.

Installed theme/ plugins: free Astra theme, wp 6.0.2, bbpress 2.6.9, bbp style pack 5.0.8.

1. I have set up login box in the sidebar, and I would like to remove the default login box below topics/ posts. How is this done?

2. What is the best way to reduce the size of the login background box? I have attempted using SiteOrigin but when I it I’m shown the hover attribute so I can’t identify it to make the adjustment.

3. I would like to also try placing login link in below the main menu (like its done here in bbpress forum). How is this done? I do have “bbp style pack” plugin installed, but it places the login in the main menu bar, which I do not want.

Thank you in advance.

Would you mind removing my debug information from my earlier post? Thanks.

Another quick question: Can you recommend a replacement for bbpress WP Tweaks? It hasn’t been updated in several years and my security software advises me to remove it.

I use it so I can have a unique sidebar for the bbpress forum (using twenty-seventeen).

Hello Robin,

Me again! We have come back to bbPress as after testing BuddyPress the client has decided this is more effective for their purpose.

Please can you let me know the best way to remove the sidebar from the forum pages? I found some old articles but nothing very recent. I am using DIVI theme if that helps.

Here is the forum so far – https://wbc1.otiscreative.co.uk/forums/

Many thanks,
Ollie

I think this is the problem? … don’t recall adding it but assume it is safe to remove as I am removing bbPress for now at least, what do you think?

add_filter(‘body_class’, ‘modify_body_classes’, 20);

function modify_body_classes( $classes ) {
if( is_bbpress() ) {
$remove_classes = array(‘et_right_sidebar’, ‘et_left_sidebar’, ‘et_includes_sidebar’);
foreach( $classes as $key => $value ) {
if ( in_array( $value, $remove_classes ) ) unset( $classes[$key] );
}
$classes[] = ‘et_full_width_page’;
}
return $classes;
}

Hi, my first time posting here.

I’ve installed bbpress on a website with member protected pages and was only able to hide the forums by setting them to private.

Using Divi, I have created 2 different top navigation menus that display for different page groups – members or public.

The bbpress forum index and pages are not WP pages that can be edited like regular pages, so I am wondering how to edit them. Mainly, the edits I’d like to make are removing the right sidebar and setting the menu to the member’s only menu.

What if I wanted to add/remove other content from the forum pages where do I do this?

Thanks

Hello. I am trying to understand how to remove the search bar from the forum but not for the sidebar (where I want it to be all the time). If I uncheck “allow forum search” in the admin panel in WP both disappears. Is the only other way the above way?

I am asking before doing anything, because that sound really difficult to me with zero experience with coding or webpages. I am learning by doing 🙂

[wenlu]

I’m new to WordPress and I wonder how can I customize bbPress without using elementor tool? There are 6 content are in my sidebar which is Home, Listings, My Posts, Forum, Settings and Profile. But now I want to remove the my post content from the sidebar. Can you guys help me to solve it.

Sorry for asking this stupid question.

Hi guys,

I tried everything to remove sidebar and use the full width but without luck. I have the main forum page as I want but topics and replys contain the sidebar. I can hide it but not get the full width.

What can I do?

I´m using Newspaper 10.3.7

https://www.farobursatil.com/foro/ –> this is OK

https://www.farobursatil.com/foro/trading-algoritmico/ –> this is with the sidebar what I want to remove 🙁

Hi,

I am trying to remove the sidebar from the forum pages so it becomes fullwidth.

Here are the pages I am struggling to remove the sidebar:

I have few writers with wp roles of author on the website and the bbpress forum role is participant.
I want the writers to get similar wp author kinds of rights on the forum but they cannot see, edit and delete others forum topics.

Basically I want the Topics option in the WP dashboard sidebar to be shown for bbpress participants.

I followed few of the existing discussions on the forum with similar requirements but none of them worked for me.

Remove Settings Capability for Editors

Allow members to trash their own topics based on edit time

I would really appreciate it if someone can suggest a solution for my case.

Thank You Robin W that helped a lot, i just realized new topic/forum doesn’t show nor anything else that you normally see in forums when logged in. I think i need to remove the sidebars. To do this i would need someone help to walk me through it, as you guys gained your knowledge through experience. Well I need your experience.

[douget]

this is how my forum looks on my website https://lightforge.web.primedtnt.com/forums/ I would appreciate any help in making this clearer to read and understand. I’m looking into finding ways to remove sidebars on forum page, but not until i can read the forum.

[manuuu1127]

I looked through all the entries and didn’t find the answer. Maybe if someone else goes searching they will see my answer.

If you remove the sidebar and change your page to full-width it won’t work…buttt if you create a new page and set it as full width and then put the bbpress code into it, it will go full width. My only thing now is I will probably install a plug in to put sidebars where I want them

I am trying to add a forum to my website, using bbpress, .

I ran into a problem with the forum layout in a “heading section”?

I don’t know what to call it, and can’t find a reference in the documentation, or via google.

It is the heading that holds … topic, voices, posts and freshness
Something is too wide, so they wrap ..
Both in the heading and In the content below

– see link

I removed the sidebar widgets, but that did not change anything.

The theme I am using is Rise.

i an looking for help to get it lined up so it doesn’t wrap?

thanks

I created a list of 5 forums some with sub forums and used the short code to display the index of forums on a page which I added to my navigation menu. Today it is only showing the first forum and none of the others. I’ve tried refreshing the page, renewing the page with the shortcode and gone back over some of the steps (I’ve been trying to remove a sidebar from the forum page) but nothing seems to work. All the forums are listed and I haven’t changed any of the settings within the forums…

I’m using the Ruby theme – but have tried it with twenty fifteen, sixteen and seventeen and the problem persists. I’m using bbpress Version 2.5.14 and the bbpress style plug in Version 4.0.3 which was updated today.

My site is not published as I’m still working on it, ironing out some of these issues.

Thanks for any advice

Hi @pauldlb

Try this… Paste the follow code into function.php (Appearance – Editor – Functions.php)

/* Remove SideBar From bbPress Profiles and Topics*/
function disable_all_widgets( $sidebars_widgets ) {
if ( function_exists('is_bbpress') ) {
if (is_bbpress()) {
$sidebars_widgets = array(false);
remove_all_actions('bp_register_widgets');
unregister_sidebar( 'bp_core_widgets' );
}
}
return $sidebars_widgets;
}
add_filter('sidebars_widgets', 'disable_all_widgets', 1, 1);

[randomguy124]

I’m creating a forum website and wish to add a particular sidebar to the right of the forum table with specific bbPress widgets. However, all plugins that allow new sidebars to be created require an existing sidebar to be replaced. Now my problem is that the only existing sidebar in the Forum page is the footer sidebar. which can’t be removed, and so, how do I create a completely new sidebar in a location where there is no sidebar previously existing (forum page)?

P.S.- I am using twenty seventeen theme.

[PrintStop India]

You can go to the wordpress dashboard and from there you go to Appearance>Widgets then in widget there will be a option of sidebar.Then click on the sidebar,it will show you about the widget that is included in that sidebar,just remove that widget then your sidebar will be deleted from your website.
