looks like you are using the paid vikinger theme – so as that is doing styling stuff, suggest you reach out to their support

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 7 months ago]

ok, this raises a number of questions, but let’s start with

You talk about a sidebar, but I cannot see this in the code sent to the screen. How are you adding the sidebar to your forums page?

I’d suggest that instead of rendering a register form on the sidebar, you have the login widget which has a register link on it, which you can direct to a register page with the register shortcode on it.

I need to know if BBpress sends any data to thrid party or wordpress

No

and does bbpress set cookies?

no, but wordpress set a cookies fro login which bbpress uses

Cookies

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

do-able but beyond free help – sorry

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

ok so the issue is your theme is not showing the sidebar on mobiles, not that bbpress is doing anything wrong.

I’d suggest you add login and logout to your menu

either

or

install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>login

It is not a bbpress issue (bbpress does not prevent whole sidebars showing) but come back and I’ll see if I can help further.

so that sidebar doesn’t show at all to the mobile, or doesn’t show to logged in users?

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

hmmm…

Titles are not put in that part as default – bbpress uses the theme/page to do that, so I would not expect to see an <h2> tag after the <div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">

do you have a theme or plugin that is altering bbpress display?

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

it could be a theme or plugin issue

a combination of

bbp style pack

and

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

transfer this to your pc and edit as required

and save

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

will get you there, but if you want specific help, contact me via http://www.rewweb.co.uk/contact-me/ and reference this post

ok that doesn’t look like a bbpress standard template displaying the forums, so must be a theme or plugin doing that ?

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

I can see gravatars on both forum list and in topics.

What browser and device are you viewing from ?

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

no problem, hope you find an answer 🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

no 🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

That’s not bbpress – must be something related to whatever membership plugin you are using

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

untested but this should do it

add_filter ('bbp_current_user_can_publish_topics' , 'rew_disallow_anon') ;

function rew_disallow_anon ($retval) {
	if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) $retval=false ;
return $retval ;
}

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

what do you mean by ‘member dierctory’ ?

bbpress has a ‘profile’ but that does not show email addresses to other users (except admins can see)

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

From your description that sounds like what bbpress does 🙂

Can you explain further ?

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

great – glad you are fixed

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

if it didn’t work in style pack there are 3 reasons

code error so does not work
wrong element targeted
something else is overwriting

1st looks ok
second could be the issue

so let’s try 3rd to check, so add this

#bbpress-forums #bbp-user-wrapper h2.entry-title {display: none !important;}

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

no requirement for your site to have a blog, particularly if you have a forum, so can post info there

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

These fields are in a bbpress template so you need to amend that

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-anonymous.php

transfer this to your pc and edit

remove

<p>
<label for=”bbp_anonymous_website”><?php esc_html_e( ‘Website:’, ‘bbpress’ ); ?></label><br />
<input type=”text” id=”bbp_anonymous_website” value=”<?php bbp_author_url(); ?>” size=”40″ maxlength=”200″ name=”bbp_anonymous_website” />
</p>

and save

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/form-anonymous.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 8 months ago]

I think this plugin should fix bbPress and the Hello Elementor theme issues – but feedback would be appreciated
