When a specific keyword is searched for in the search form, it searches across all pages on the site. How can I set it up so that it only searches within the forum?
is this the forum search widget – if so link to a live example please
Also, the widget for bbPress is not visible in the widget area. How can I set it up to be visible?
Widgets
please explain which widget you mean
Hi,
This is the example that when a specific keyword is searched for in the bbpress search form, it searches across all pages on the site.

and I cannot find the bbpress widget on Appearance -> Widgets

FYI I am using a freeio theme (https://themeforest.net/item/freeio-freelance-marketplace-wordpress-theme/42045416)
Plese check them and let me know how to solve them.
Thank you
thanks
search should just look at the forums, but other elements such as themes or other plugins can change that.
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.
Plugins
If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users
Health Check & Troubleshooting
Then come back
the appearance>widgets that you showed are not widgets but sidebars that contain widgets – there is no bbpress sidebar.
Thank you for the solutions
I’ve tried all you told me but it’s still not working.
Could you please anoter way to solve this problem?
Thank you.
what theme are you using ?
