style my forum like yours

    How do I get my forum to look like yours:
    default isn’t clear where writing box is, has extra stuff at top like navigation and ‘this forum contains’, has topic type, etc.

    Thanks,
    Sam

    The reply form border styles is inherited from your theme.

    Do you want to remove the topic and forum descriptions too??

    This php code snippet will remove the descriptions. Place this code snippet in your child themes functions.php or in a functionality plugin.

    add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_forum_description', 'ja_return_blank' );
    add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_topic_description', 'ja_return_blank' );
    function ja_return_blank() {
        return '';
    }

    I added that to my functions.php but it didn’t do any thing. Any suggestions?

    You can try this instead. This hides the “this forum contains … topics… and” description that is blue on top of forums.

    add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_forum_description', '__return_false' );
    add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_topic_description', '__return_false' );

    You can try this CSS for the reply/topic form text areas.

    #bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form textarea {
        border: 1px solid #ccc;
    }

    Anything else you want on this site I am sure there has already been a topic about so searching the forums might be best.

    That style change got me a border, much clearer, thanks.

    I added the filters to my functions.php file, it gets rid of ‘this forum contains…’ on chrome and firefox but not ie, odd… I did clear cache.

    Thanks,
    Sam
