I’d be tempted to use the conditional widgets plugin to achieve this, but bear in mind that wordpress’s move to block widgets may limit the lifespan.
It would also be worth asking the theme author since this is a paid theme.
Beyond that, it would be custom development work I suspect
ok, so
I understand from this threat that the layout of search results or topic-tag pages can be customized based on the template files stored in the bbpress/templates/default/bbpress folder.
In order to retain the customization during updates of the bbpress plugin, I have created the same folder structure inside the directory of my child theme (see screenshot).
yes that is correct and should work, BUT you would do better to only copy those templates you are changing/altering – bbpress will then use those you have changed from your child theme directory and use the unchanged from the plugin directory..
so what are users clicking to get the topic tags page ?
so you’re fixed – ish ???
But now they show a warning and it has to be viewed by clicking a link.
Given that bbpress hasn’t changed, then something else is presumably now adding that warning ?
ok, without knowing what is determining the order, it is hard to give you code to correct.
I’d suggest you play with publish dates of the stickies and ant replies to them to see if you can work out the issue, then come back and I’ll see if I can help further
line 322 of \includes\topics\template.php has the function I think
you’d use a filter to add an ‘order by’ probably using the parse args on line 330
so
add_filter ('bbp_before_add_sticky_topics_parse_args' , 'your_function') ;
function your_function ($r) {
//add the order you want to sort
$r['order_by'] = etc......
}
Sorry don’t have time to look at this evening, but come back if you need further help
part of the new topic check is for duplicates , not sure why your site isn’t.
you get an error message of
‘Duplicate topic detected; it looks as though you’ve already said that.’
so do the stickies have any replies to them ?
that might alter the order, eg most recent reply determines order
sorry, forget that, in wrong place
stickies should appear in date order early to late.
ok so in dashboard>topics>edit topics and find the sticky topics and edit, do they have a ‘menu order’ set ?
o how are you changing the order, which is not sticking
if not then come back, but let me know how you are changing the order
order is determined usually by date – might be worth using the backend to change the date of one to be before or after the other.
pretty much – if you want to not show user profiles, then use
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Profile
where you can set profiles not to display
untested, but this should work
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_author_display_name' , 'rew_reply_change_to_first_name', 10 , 2 ) ;
function rew_reply_change_to_first_name ($author_name, $reply_id) {
// Get the author ID
$author_id = bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id );
$user = get_userdata($author_id);
$first_name = $user->user_firstname;
return $first_name ;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_author_display_name' , 'rew_topic_change_to_first_name', 10 , 2 ) ;
function rew_topic_change_to_first_name ($author_name, $topic_id) {
// Get the author ID
$author_id = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id );
$user = get_userdata($author_id);
$first_name = $user->user_firstname;
return $first_name ;
}
Put this in your child theme’s function file –
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
or use

link to an example on your site please
bbpress just uses wordpress registration.
I suspect that emails from your site may be being seen as spam.

If you have allowed the serach, then it should appear in your main forum list.
If it is not, it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
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

you need to be a keymaster to see forums in the dashboard – check your settings
dashboard>users
If you are not, then you need to get a keymaster to set you up.
If you are a keymaster it could be a theme or plugin issue
