You copy the loop-single-reply.php file in your child theme in a folder called bbpress.
when you look at the code of theme template in your code editor, you will see an tag called
<?php bbp_reply_author_link( array( 'sep' => '<br />', 'show_role' => true ) ); ?>
This peice of code has attributes to display your avatar and user role. You can place similar code around each other to reorder it to the layout you want.
For more information about cusotmizing the reply author link see here.
bbp_reply_author_link
Also I think you can reorder the reply content to show up first with CSS and just switch it around in the template file.
Thanks, I was able to re-arrange but now I would like every second reply to show in a different colour but cannot get this to work. Any ideas?
Customize this CSS from bbPress.
#bbpress-forums div.even,
#bbpress-forums ul.even {
background-color: #fff;
}
#bbpress-forums div.odd,
#bbpress-forums ul.odd {
background-color: #fbfbfb;
}
I’ve tried this and nothing changes. It’s the bbp-reply-content that I want to change colour so not sure is that the problem
Link to a random topic on your site so I can give you some specific CSS for your site. You may also just add !Important to the CSS to see if that works too.
You might have removed/there isn’t a certain piece of code that renders the classes for each topic/reply.
You might be missing this in loop-single-reply.php in your custom templates that you placed in your child theme.
<?php bbp_reply_class(); ?>
Maybe this for topics too in loop-single-topic.php
<?php bbp_topic_class(); ?>
