4 files of interest to you
all found in templates/default/bbpress
loop-search.php
loop-search-topic.php
loop-search-reply.php
loop-search-forum.php
copy them to your theme
so if you wanted to amend loop-search-topic you would do the following
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-search-topic.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-search-topic.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this
Thank you for your reply, the problem however is that when something is searched on bbpress it searches topics, forums and replies but the forum displays different information as does the replies which if i set the loop-search-topic as the template for everything, it’s displayed all messed up when the search results are forums and replies and not topics, the topics are displayed normally but the other stuff is a mess. How would I get it to display the forum and reply results in the same manner as the topic results? Because that’s where my problem actually is. Thank you once again.
then you’d alter loop-search-reply.php to look like how you want it
but I don’t know how to edit it to look like the loop-topic, I don’t know what information to remove and what information to add, I’m a newbie developer you see lol so i need all the help i can get please.
