    these sortcodes are theme(or other plugin) related, not bbpress.

    what theme are you using?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    so if you go into

    dashboard>appearance>menus

    what is being called – a link, a page a post or what?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    suggest you try :

    bbp style pack

    and come back with any remaining issues.

    I’ve reduced you queries to this one

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    again looks fine – I’ve removed links in case you are just spamming this site to get backlinks

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    all looks good to me – do you still have an issue?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    sorry, getting a bit fed up with music being played every time I click anything on your site !! interesting once, gets horrible very quickly.

    so in the menu on forum, what is being called – a link, a page a post or what?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    possibly you have a page called forums?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    dashboard>settings>forums>and change the forum root slug (and single forum slug if you wish)

    ok, thius could be a complex answer, so lets try

    can you give me the html immediately before and after ONE example of where you would like this

    Plugins

    Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

    @robin-w

    sorry I couldn’t help more

    @robin-w

    your theme is doing extensive bbpress changes.

    It has a file at

    https://enviroforum.net/website/wp-content/themes/enviroforum/lib/css/bbpress.css?ver=456a73969e36e761f6215426bf37ff30

    which is turning off and on all sorts of things.

    Sorry, but I can only suggest you contact the theme author to see if he can help

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    can you post precisely where you want this? a section of html would be useful

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    can you post an example of the exact text that it is appearing in

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    It could be a theme or plugin issue

    Plugins

    Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

    Themes

    If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

    Otherwise/additionally talk to your hosting provider

    It is shocking how bad this forum aspect of WordPress is Amazing that consumers put up with it, really.

    oh how I agree that something that has taken a lot of people a lot of time to write for free, is maintained for free, and supported for free, and has cost you nothing doesn’t do what you want. Absolutely disgusting and shouldn’t be allowed. Of course you could always crack the code open and help improve it, or perhaps it is easier to just easier to expect someone else to do that for you and just complain when it doesn’t.

    put it in your theme’s functions file

    wp-content/themes/[your theme name]/functions.php

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    you don’t; move, you duplicate and then change

    so the original file sits in

    /yorkregiontutoring/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-archive-forum.php

    and you copy this to

    wp-content/themes/[your-theme]/bbpress/content-archive-forum.php

    and then make changes

    bbpress will look at this new file as being the active one

    @robin-w

    you can always us this in your function file

    //This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
    function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
    	if ( $translated_text == 'old text' ) {
    	$translated_text = 'new text';
    	}
    	return $translated_text;
    }
    add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );

    so you would have

    //This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
    function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
    	if ( $translated_text == 'by' ) {
    	$translated_text = 'par';
    	}
    	return $translated_text;
    }
    add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );

    I am the private groups author – what is the conflict ?

    It depends what you mean by ‘People can create these courses and forums using our site’ – do you mean anyone, or just a select few who run this stuff?

    Hidden forums will only be seen by users with moderator privilege, so that’s not what you’ll want for ordinary users.

    closest you’ll get is my private groups plugin

    Private groups

    Many people use it to have course linked forums but it won’t do what you are asking if you want users to be able to administer the creation of forums. If it’s just a select few admikns who do this, then it might be good for you.
