Hi Robkk – on the test site i have deactivated every plugin (so it looks odd) and i still have the same problem – replies empty, am using twentytwelve theme so should not be a theme problem.
http://photohunters.org/photohunters-test/topic/sony-alpha-dslr-a100/#post-348
Tha only thing i have added to fuctions.php is to hide author links and profile and avatar

add_filter('bbp_before_get_breadcrumb_parse_args', 'mycustom_breadcrumb_options');

add_filter( 'bbp_get_author_link', 'remove_author_links', 10, 2);
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_author_link', 'remove_author_links', 10, 2);
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_author_link', 'remove_author_links', 10, 2);
function remove_author_links($author_link, $args) {
	$author_link = preg_replace(array('{<a[^>]*>}','{}'), array(" "), $author_link);
	return $author_link;
 }
 

add_filter ('bbp_before_get_author_link_parse_args' , 'rew_remove_avatar' ) ;
add_filter ('bbp_before_get_reply_author_link_parse_args' , 'rew_remove_avatar' ) ;
add_filter ('bbp_before_get_topic_author_link_parse_args' , 'rew_remove_avatar' ) ;
function rew_remove_avatar ($args) {
	$args['type'] = 'name' ;
	return $args ;
}

Any ideas? Melanie
p.s. pop gone on main site, trying to sort out the problem…

Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 9 years, 11 months ago]

Oh my god Robin – IT WORKED!! I cant beleive it – amazing – dont know how to thank you, i have been trying to solve the problem for days and you are my saviour!
I thank you from the bottom of my heart – no more panic – am speechless
thank you again
and have a wonderful weekend – whats left of it
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 9 years, 11 months ago]

Hi ok am reactivating source code – i managed to hide the url, but i dont actually want to do that i want to make it so it doesnt link otherwise you have “started by “. Another idea can i link it to their profile page which is not part of bbpress “http://photohunters.org/photohunters/my-profile/”

site page
http://photohunters.org/photohunters/forum/2nd-hand-market/

i really do appreciate your help – am just trying to strip the forum down to the bare minimum
thank you
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 9 years, 11 months ago]

Hi Lynqoid, am afraid the above does not seem to work, added to my child theme css, then added to bbpress.css.
There must be somewhere in the bbpress.css where i can disactivate, or delete, but for the life of me cant find it!
Do you have any other advice?
thank you
melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 9 years, 11 months ago]

Hi Robin – I really do appreciate you time and effort, sometimes it is difficult as you want a site to work perfectly and sometimes there is no response so you tend to panic… i apologise for sounding irritated – it was panic as we go live in a few days
in my css i added
.bbp-author-avatar {display: none;}
and worked great, but now i need to remove the link on a users name as i dont want any profiles, this is a simple forum and the users already have a seperate profile page on the site and it would just complicate.. the workaround that i tried to apply (in previous post) mucks up everything, so i just need to know where to go to disable, i have a duplicated bbpress to my child theme so all my changes go there – so i need to know which file contains the info to disable or if the user links have a distinctive class that i can disable
thank you in advance
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 9 years, 11 months ago]

Hi am posting this again as have had no response
Hi Have tried to remove the link from username with below code but when i use it, the avatar reappears which i managed to get rid of – is there another workaround?

add_filter(‘bbp_before_get_breadcrumb_parse_args’, ‘mycustom_breadcrumb_options’);
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_author_link’, ‘remove_author_links’, 10, 2);
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_reply_author_link’, ‘remove_author_links’, 10, 2);
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_topic_author_link’, ‘remove_author_links’, 10, 2);
function remove_author_links($author_link, $args) {
$author_link = preg_replace(array(‘{<a[^>]*>}’,'{}’), array(” “), $author_link);
return $author_link;
}

thanks in advance

Hi
I dont want to keep track of who is posting or advertise, i would just like that people who post add email and name so those answering know who is posting and can email them, etc… the only thing i can do is add an extra login for the forum but i dont want to do that. I want to override the login – even though logged in if they want to post they have to add email and name
thank you
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years ago]

HI
I have my own simple login – not a plugin just a script, the site is for a seal charity and there is an area for the wardens to communicate which is the forum, so they have to login to access that area, but its a generic login, 1 user and pass for all so i need in the forum the form for name and email to keep track of who is posting. I assume the login overrides the anonymous posting so is there a way to add the form despite… in the bbpress functions file add an over-ride?
thank you
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years ago]

Hi Robkk
I have it enabled. My problem is you have to be logged in to enter that part of the site, so bbpress must assume that the user has logged in so no email field is visible, so somehow something has to be overridden maybe in the functions.php to show the email field even though the user is logged in as users to have to enter their name and email to post
thank you
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years, 1 month ago]

Thank you works great Robkk – is there any way of stopping the titles “topics” and “post” from being cut and on 2 lines
eg.
freshne
ss

thank you again
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years, 2 months ago]

thank you so much robin – its working great now!
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years, 2 months ago]

Hi Robin – so a new category in the forum is a new forum? and how do get the forum to appear without the
wardens-forum/forum/forum/
i would like it to appear on the “wardens-forum/”
below is the login to test site
user – Clive
pass – cxm11cxm
Am really sorry
but help is much appreciated
ps. to hide the search link
#search {display:none;} – does not seem to work

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years, 2 months ago]

i also have another question – sorry – i would like to have “categories” under people can post, and i mistakenly thought they must be topics, say
News
post under this
Sick and injured seals
post under this
Lost and found Reports
and post under this – etc…

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years, 4 months ago]

Thanks so much for your help – will have a play around and see what i can fix
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years, 4 months ago]

Hi
Could you point me in the right direction as it seems that everything has to be changed to make it responsive – There seems to be a 10px padding on the left where the search button half hides under, the forum table aligns there but there is a large space on the right which is where the sidebar that has diplay:none on iphone – so i suppose need to make the forum full page without sidebar in iphone view.
I also see there is more than one style sheet
So any help would be appreciated
Thank you
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years, 4 months ago]

ok will start a new thread with this -thank you for your help
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years, 4 months ago]

Hi Robkk – It is actually working, last night no matter how many reloads it didn’t
so thank you for your help and patience.
i have ONE MORE question – its quite important – i have my own login form, (for people to upload images to their portfolios) how do i synchronise bbpress with that form rather than having to have 2 login forms which seems silly
Thank you in advance
Melanie

[@melanie-bund Participant 10 years, 4 months ago]

Hi robkk
Am afraid neither of above solutions work.
I have created a folder “bbpress” within my theme and copied the bbpress.css, could it be the original .css is overriding it?
The breadcrumbs space still remains.
The button code does not change the button
My theme buttons css below – could i somehow alter it to also include the bbpress button?

#searchform input[type=”submit”] {
padding: 9px 15px;
background: #F93;
border: 0;
font-size: 14px;
color: #000;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
width: auto;
}
#searchform input[type=”submit”]:hover {
color: #5e5e5e;
background-color: #ebebeb;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #f9f9f9, #ebebeb);
background-image: -ms-linear-gradient(top, #f9f9f9, #ebebeb);
background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #f9f9f9, #ebebeb);
background-image: -o-linear-gradient(top, #f9f9f9, #ebebeb);
background-image: linear-gradient(top, #f9f9f9, #ebebeb);
}
thank you in advance

Hi I apologise “bumping” an old question, i only realised after i had posted so i created this new one.
The above code does not seem to work, is it possible to revert to the custom wp buttons i have created – see below link – sidebar
PLUS, i have commented out the breadrumbs but the space still remains – how do i get rid of the space?

Thank you in advance and i apologise again for my former error
