    Nice plugin really good job! 🙂

    .bbpress .post-image { display:none; }

    This will hide that post-image on bbpress pages.

    You can hide it using CSS, but off the top of my head i’m not sure what the class or id is for that dropdown.

    #select_id { display:none; }

    Replace the #select_id with the id of that dropdown on your forum.

    The easiest way will be to take the forum name and then run it through a function to remove dodgy characters and change spaces with hyphens then make it lower case into a class name. Then you can add that in the subforum row as a class.

    If you need more info let me know 🙂 Good luck!

    There is a way to remove them, do you have a site link we can take a look at? Otherwise it’s just a bit of a guess, like add bottom-margin:0 to the offending element (maybe).

    I tried to take a look but your navigation is currently shown as empty?

    You can definitely achieve the look of that forum with bbPress 🙂 good luck!

    Hey!

    Adding an image based on user rank is relatively easy to achieve…
    Inside your theme files there is a file called loop-single-reply.php, you can find the author ID of the current reply and then from there get all the data for that user.

    $userdata = get_user_meta( bbp_get_reply_author_id ( bbp_get_reply_id() ) );

    This will fetch the user data then you can just use an if statement to check the current role and output an image tag.

    For your second question I do something similar to the user legend on teamoverpowered.com – I am using Wp-UserOnline and I just add the shortcode to my template files.

    Good luck!

    Does everything work fine with a default WordPress theme? (If so we can narrow it done to a theme issue and not some other issue).

    @lynq

    Participant

    In the core files there is a file called widgets.php inside /plugins/bbpress/includes/common

    If you look at line 677 (in my version) there is a topics widget class (class BBP_Topics_Widget), you could create your own plugin and copy the class across (renaming it) and then create your own bbPress widget, without altering the core code.

    Good luck!

    Without being able to inspect the website with Firebug it makes it very difficult for us to give a more detailed response. Your CSS will be putting it in that place, so it’s a case of changing it.

    If you are able to provide a link then I can be more specific for you 🙂 – download firebug, firefox extension (or use chrome) then right click the subscribe and click inspect, it can give you some further detail as to what is going on with that subscribe link.

    Good luck!

    I know this could be tedious, but how about setting up some wordpress shortcodes for the relevant BBCodes?

    This could work: https://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API

    Hey guys,

    Can I ask, are you comfortable with changing font sizes on a WordPress website? Regardless of bbPress.

    If so then it’s exactly the same. If you wanted to you could even create a section inside your main themes style sheet for bbPress specific styles.

    Good luck!

    Issues with trying to manage a forum can sometimes be resolved by going to Tools > Forums > Remap existing users to default forum roles

    Tick that and click repair items, this can solve some issues with forum admin. Once you have done that and refreshed you should be able to see forums, topics and replies to the left hand side.

    Good luck!

    You would have to customise your theme to do so, but the data is there so you should be able to get something similar.

    Have you got custom theme files for bbPress or are you using the bundled theme?

    You need to get that code error resolved before worrying too much about the email issue, get it resolved then see if the email issue still persists.

    Some troubleshooting tips:

    Disable plugins one by one to find the error
    Switch to a standard theme

    Good luck!

    The dots are from list styling. I am not sure on what line without looking at the site, but it will be the list-style-type not being set to none.

    Good luck!

    It’s loading in less than 2.5 seconds for me? Seems good 🙂

    You can check here for accessibility guidelines: http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/ – I would then install a copy of bbPress and check if it suits your needs based on the guidelines from w3.

    Good luck!

    You will have to disable your plugins one at a time to see which one is causing the issue or check if you have a correct bbPress theme inside your theme folder.

    Good luck!

    Still having problems with this, I have cleared my whole cookies, individually removed bbpress cookies, tried 5 browsers, tried my ipad and I am still having erratic login problems.

    I can visit wp-admin. I can sometimes reply, but if I visit /forums I am shown as anonymous, then sometimes if I go to a topic I am anonymous and I can’t reply. I’ll just carry on removing cookies I guess, but it’s an annoyance.

    Here is my setup.

    Main Theme
    /wp-content/themes/MyTheme/

    bbPress theme files
    /wp-content/themes/MyTheme/bbpress

    If you visit your theme directory, like Main Theme above and there is not a bbPress folder, then you need to copy them out of the bbPress plugin and into your theme folder.

    Get that done first, then we can go from there.

    Good luck!

    I had the same problem, go to tools > forums > Remap existing users to default forum roles (I think that is the right one to do).

    One of those recount/remap tools did the trick for me, good luck.
