The “half of the screen” problem is pretty bad 🙁
We’re just setting up bbPress (migrating an old phpBB forum) and the big avatar problem is annoying. We’re using the “Responsive” theme (themeid.com) and it’s really great on mobile, except for the bbPress pages.
One option might be to hide avatars on mobile. I think that would be a workaround if there’s not a simple way to make the avatars shrink. Of course, I’d rather have them shown at 50% or so 🙂
You could add some media queries to your CSS and use something like:
`
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-body div.bbp-reply-author img.avatar {
width: 20px;
height: auto;
`
Thanks Stephen, that worked great!
Hey Stephen,
that worked great. Thank you very much for that tip. Now I want to shrink the font size of the username which has replied to the post. It is underneath the avatar. I’m trying to find that now since hours… 🙁 could you give me a tip on that? Is it also in the css-file of the theme?
Is it also possible to let the user role and IP disappear? 🙂
I would really appreciate your help.

@schneidi76
add this anywhere you can put custom css
add !important at the end if it doesnt work at first too.
to shrink username , change 12px to something lower if you want to go smaller
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author a.bbp-author-name,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author a.bbp-author-name {
clear: left;
display: block;
font-size: 12px;
}
to make user role disappear
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-author .bbp-author-role,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author .bbp-author-role,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author .bbp-author-role {
display: none;
}
the IP is only seen by keymasters , and it is very useful if you want to block users who are spammers, but if you want to remove it just use this CSS.
span.bbp-author-ip {
display: none;
}
@shortgigs
its probably because your bbpress styling is custom or you need to clear some cache maybe.
make an administrator account with also the forum role being keymaster. and send the login details to robkk17@gmail (dot) com and ill check on it later.
i need an administrator/keymaster account just so i can check on the IP address thing.
