    that ability is on bbpress

    so set the user to particpant, and then in the relevant forums, you will see the ability to set the user as a moderator for that forum on the right hand side in edit forum

    you could do that with javascript, but nothing already written in the plugin that I know of

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    yes you have a page called activities, so you just need to turn off the topics for posts on this page

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    first question ; do you have a page in

    dashboard>pages called activities and one called members ?

    second question : I don’t know, I am not an SEO expert 🙂

    I’m very surprised that you cannot add the style pack plugin – it is quite small !

    But if your hoster won’t allow this, then come back and I’ll try to help further

    @ricsca2 – I don’t know what you are asking in the previous or whether you still have an issue on either ‘can you automatically insert the “leave and comment” look?’ or ‘As for the seo, can having the article with the same title in the forum penalize?’ or what either means.

    If you still need help, can you type more than a single sentence 🙂

    On the issue of buddypress, topics for posts lets you decide if the default for a page is to create a topics for posts or not (see dashboard>settings>discussion). On page creation, you can then switch on and off as you wish. Are these actual pages or virtual pages?

    great – glad you are fixed

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    ok, style pack has a fix for no keymaster

    dashboard>settings>bug fixes

    but you’ll need to get you hoster to increase your upload file size first to enable you to install this.

    if you’ve cloned the forum widget, you can set a class – the test is

    if ( bbp_is_forum_closed(forum_id)) ...

    and

    if ( bbp_is_topic_closed (topic_id)) ...

    interesting..it looks ok on my test site, but I can see it doesn’t on yours.

    I should state that I am just a bbpress user who helps out here, not the plugin author.

    2 choices

    1. amend the actual widget file – yes that is said by many to be bad practice, but bbpress does not do frequent releases, and if it is your site and you know what you changed, is probably the quickest and easiest answer

    2. clone the widget to your theme’s child functions file. so take the whole function that starts

    class BBP_Forums_Widget extends WP_Widget {

    Now you’ll need to rename it, so change BBP_Forums_Widget wherever quoted to something unique, and change names/title in these lines

    
    public function __construct() {
    		$widget_ops = apply_filters( 'bbp_forums_widget_options', array(
    			'classname'                   => 'widget_display_forums',
    			'description'                 => esc_html__( 'A list of forums with an option to set the parent.', 'bbpress' ),
    			'customize_selective_refresh' => true
    		) );
    
    		parent::__construct( false, esc_html__( '(bbPress) Forums List', 'bbpress' ), $widget_ops );
    	}
    
    	/**
    	 * Register the widget
    	 *
    	 * @since 2.0.0 bbPress (r3389)
    	 */
    	public static function register_widget() {
    		register_widget( 'BBP_Forums_Widget' );
    	}

    you can then amend the offending line.

    I’m pretty sure that the link in the ‘latest activity’ widget in my style pack takes you to the reply

    bbp style pack

    once activated you’ll find a latest activity widget with lots of settings you can use.

    are you a keymaster?

    keymasters get forums, topics and replies
    moderators get topics and replies

    bbpress only uses wordpress login, so doesn;t change anything in this area

    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

    Health Check & Troubleshooting

    Then come back

    sorry, but your problem is lost in translation.

    can you clearly state what is not working. can you see forums in Dashboard>forums?

    @robin-w

    in another website

    link to this website please

    the ‘typical’ menu on the left hand side of this forum is NOT typical, it is added as a sidebar

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    that class is a buddypress class, suggest you ask in

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    unless you can come up with a series of steps to replicate, sorry it is hard to help

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    the moderation is in
    dashboard>settings>discussion

    usually it is the number of links

    I generally keep a log of what I change, as my memeory isn’t what it was !

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    since this is a paid theme, we have no access to it to see what it is doing.

    @flamuren – you can change plugin files, but if they are on wordpress repository and have updates, then updates will overwrite them.

    Just keep a note of what you changed, so that if say I do a fresh version which you want, you can then apply your changes afterwards

    first thing I would do is break this into separate functions

    add_filter( 'generate_smooth_scroll_elements', 'th_scroll' ) ;
    
    function th_scroll ( $elements ) {
      $elements[] = 'a[href*="#"]:not(.wp-show-posts-read-more)';
      return $elements;
    }
