[@robin-w Moderator 1 week, 5 days ago]

great – glad you are fixed !!

I suspect that hello elementor authors have now got the theme working with bbpress, so my fix is no longer necessary

[@robin-w Moderator 1 week, 5 days ago]

style pack uses lots of different techniques to change things, and dependent on what you are wanting to change, some things might work and others not.

So if you enable style pack, but do not tick the theme support, does the ‘number of swans’ bit work? and do forums display?

If so can you give me an example of a style pack change that does not work – eg I set item x in tab y and nothing happens

[@robin-w Moderator 1 week, 5 days ago]

sorry read you first post too fast !

I did the fix for hello elementor some while ago, and things may have changed.

ok, on my test site the forums display whether style pack is enables or not, and indeed whether the option is ticked in theme support, and it may be my fix as such is no longer doing anything.

So without style pack, what is broken in either the forums, or your posts?

[@robin-w Moderator 1 week, 5 days ago]

Install this additional plugin

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>theme support

and you’ll be able to set it to work

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 1 day ago]

That fix in now in style pack version 6.3.7 along with the ability to change the rather useless ‘your topic/reply cannot be created at this time’ error message that users who transgress get.

That bit is in

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topic/Reply Form item 18

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 2 days ago]

Until bbpress fixes this, the following code will correct

add_filter ('bbp_blacklist_keys' , 'rew_disallowed_keys') ;

function rew_disallowed_keys () {
	$moderation = trim( get_option( 'disallowed_keys' ) );
return $moderation ;
}

If you are using

bbp style pack

a new version incorporating this fix will be released shortly and the fix will automatically be applied – with an option in bbPress bug fixes tab to turn that off if you don’t want it, or are using you own code

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 4 days ago]

you are correct, and yes I had raised a ticket to fix that option when it was called blacklist_keys, but the wrong change was made

I have raised a new ticket to add it to the list, but bbpress releases new version at quite long intervals. (I am not a bbpress author)

In the meantime you can either leave your change in and make a note to refresh on new bbpress versions, or there are some hooks to skip moderation and maybe add a new version of the code – I’ll take a look at that soon

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 4 days ago]

thanks for your post, I will take a look at this later today

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 5 days ago]

sql not my strong suit, but that code looks as though it does all that it needs to.

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks ago]

and what hook are you currently using?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 1 day ago]

where are you trying to place this?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 3 days ago]

ok, I use captcha.

This guide is quite good at explaining, but you will need to create a google account first.

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 4 days ago]

Install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>column display

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 4 days ago]

that is because Kadence does it’s own

you can take out kadence breadcrumbs using

.kadence-breadcrumbs {
	display: none !important;
}

or the bbpress breadcrumbs using

#bbpress-forums .bbp-breadcrumb {
	display: none !important;
}

Choice is yours !!

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 4 days ago]

ok, so you are using then Kadence theme, which as my text says has extensive bbpress modifications, so yes the fixes I have suggested and the plugin you have written may well not work.

I can only suggest you contact Kadence support for further help

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 4 days ago]

that should have worked, but never mind, try this

go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Custom CSS

and add this

#comments {
	display: none !important;
}

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 4 days ago]

it could be one of a few dozen reasons 🙂

At the moment your site is downloading 2 x bbpress.min.css to the browser together with one bbpress.css, so without soending a lot if time, it is hard to see what changes are in which.

Can you take out/deactivate your additional plugin and the custom css and then install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Custom CSS

and put the

#bbpress-forums {
	width: 85% !important;
	margin: 0 auto !important;
}

in there.

It it does not work, LEAVE that change active, and I may be able to see through the browser what is happening in the background

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 5 days ago]

reply threading means that you can reply to a reply and it will show against that reply, it lets a thread go in many directions – personally I hate it and would not use it.

‘Voices’ means the number of different people who have contributed to a thread.

As to your original question, I cannot replicate the issue, so I can only suggest you try the standard fault finding viz:

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

great – glad to have helped

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 5 days ago]

settings>discussion just sets the default.

That will stop it for new pages, then you need to go into

dashboard>pages>edit pages and the R.E.D. “Crew Lounge” page and find comments and turn it off

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 5 days ago]

upgrade to the latest version of bbp style pack

dashboard>updates and select bbp style pack and update

then go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Custom CSS

and add this

.bsp-mark-all {
display : none ; 
}

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 5 days ago]

what is the nature of your website, and how many real people are registering per period eg 10 a day, 20 a month

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 5 days ago]

This is working – the topic index shortcode you are using will show all tooics and then allow new topics with a forum select dropdown.

You are seeing that first.

After that you are seeing another ‘new topic’ box that says
Create New Topic in “R.E.D. Crew Lounge”

then you are also seeing and comment box.

so I would suggest you replace

[bbp-topic-index]
[bbp-topic-form forum_id=846]

with

[bbp-single-forum id=846]

That will then display the topics and only a reply to that forum

I would also turn off comments, you do that by

dashboard>settings>discussion>default post settings> and turn off all 3

That will stop it for new pages, then you need to go into

dashboard>pages>edit pages and the R.E.D. “Crew Lounge” page and find comments and turn it off

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 5 days ago]

where are you setting it?

and a link to a live example please
