The default toolbar buttons are positioned at the top of the <textarea> and with a little bit of JS I can hide it by default and let it pop-up when text inside the <textarea> is selected.
Right now I have to delete everything thats default and create my own <textarea> + BBcode buttons.
You need to follow the path inside the files until you find <?php bbp_freshness_link() ;?> inside all the bbPress templates files.
Files are located inside the bbpress folder.
You can’t really create a Child Theme for bbPress only.
But if you like to work with the Child Theme idea – I personally think it fails big time but some people really like it then just create a Child Theme if you would do the WP way. https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
After that you simply add a folder called bbpress inside your Theme or Child Theme folder and copy-/paste the files over from your Plugins directory to your Theme or Child Theme directory.
wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / defaults / extras / All those files are general Theme template files and will be read first if you copy them inside your Child Theme folder
wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / defaults / bbpress / All those files are bbPress (forum) templates files and will be read first if you copy them inside your Child Theme/bbpress folder.
When there is none css folder inside you theme folder just create one.
What you’ve done right now is created you’re own custom stylesheet for bbPress that can’t be overwritten by software updates.
What styles you have to change I can’t tell from looking at your picture, but it’s pretty easy to find them.
Make sure you have a Webkit browser installed on your computer ( Google Chrome is reallt the best for this ). View your website and right-mouse-click on the element you would like to change and pick the option ” Inspect Element ” ( I think it’s called )
Now you have at the bottom all the style , there’s also a location + line number where to find the elements inside your bbpress.css file.
wp-content / plugins / bbpress / includes / common / widgets.php
Thats the file you need to have. By default I don’t think you can drag your Widget-code out of there and start using it inside any other WP project. You probably have to add and redesign it to make it work.
The first block goes inside your functions.php i guess,
And all others you have to add where to show – inside your template files. example loop-single-forum.php
That fie can be found in your bbpress plugins directory.
wp-content / bbpress / templates / defaults / bbpress / ** here **
Don’t edit files from the bbpress folder inside your plugins folder because those will be overwritten when bbPress updates.
Just copy files that you need to edit towards your theme folder just like this:
wp-content / themes / [ your theme name ] / bbpress / ** here **
It’s difficult to judge from an outside of view but I visit one of the larger bbPress driven websites on a daily base and have my doubts on some parts.
Those guys have upgraded bbPress V1 -> bbPress V2 about 4/5 months ago and still are fighting troubles + losing people-/visits because of it.
I can’t tell if it’s ‘sloppy’ bbPress Core or less quality developers who have messed things up.
The website + community runs pretty fast on a good server and most of the trouble their facing are custom build features…
Nobody can help you.. Go to the WordPress support forums there is much more traffic.
Maybe somebody over there can help , else it’s just not possible and you have to pay somebody to do so.
I doubt somebody has figured it out because i see this happening al the time at bbPress and WordPress forums. http://i50.tinypic.com/2jdgbiu.png
For now:
Add the tagged words that clearly have nothing to do with your support-forum like Abercrombie, NBA, Air Jordan and stuff like that to the WordPress settings blacklist.
