    still no clearer on where this code is going, and which thumbnail you are after.. sorry I’d love to help but I’m still not understanding what you are trying to achieve.

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    depends exactly where you are putting that code, and which thumbnail you are wanting

    get_the_post_thumbnail( $reply_id, $size, $attr );

    may well be what you want.

    Otherwise come back with where the code is going.

    I’m not sure that this is in bbpress – it may be that it is in your theme, or your theme is amending bbpress.

    Try the following to see if it disappears and to work out what is creating 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.

    Themes

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

    Then come back

    I’ve just added that capability to one of my existing shortcodes in my style pack plugin, so if you install

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

    and then see

    Dashhboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes for a description of how to use it in detail, but

    [bsp-display-topic-index noreply='true']

    used in a page will get you what you want

    @robin-w

    The correct code would be

    [bbp-single-forum id='3569159-2']

    but I suspect ‘3569159-2’ is the url not the post ID as post ID are a whole number and what you want

    so go to

    Dashboard>forums and select all forums

    If you hover of ‘edit’ of then forum you want, you’ll see at the bottom left of the screen

    url…post.php?post=12345&action=edit

    it is the 12345 that you want to put in the shortcode

    not quite sure what you are asking?

    Do you want to show each forum, and then all topics and replies all on one page?

    Please come back and explain further

    suspect it is 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.

    Then come back

    have you followed

    Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

    and what have you got for step 3?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    Great – glad you are fixed

    Would you care to share the solution to help someone googling this topic at a later date?

    @robin-w

    In which case this is the easiest way.

    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

    find
    wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-topic.php
    Make a copy of this file, 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-topic.php

    bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
    and you can amend this

    so go to line 60 which says

    <span class="bbp-topic-started-by"><?php printf( __( 'Started by: %1$s', 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_topic_author_link( array( 'size' => '14' ) ) ); ?></span>

    and change the ‘size’ => ’14’ to a larger number for instance ‘size’ => ’20’

    Do you access to your theme’s functions file?

    In reply to: Image on top portion

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    This is within your theme, not within bbpress.

    You could put a single image in, but not easily one per forum as far as I can see.

    no problem – glad you are fixed !

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    probably better to contact the bbPress Toolbox plugin support !

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    The two ‘test’ items below are easier, as they just use blockquote so you can add this to your css

    #bbpress-forums blockquote {
      color: green;
    }

    I presume that you don’t want to change the class in the other plugin?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    ok, can as a test you try disabling Askimet and seeing if that fixes – I am trying to work out where the problem is occurring.

    This is the default display.

    If you are into coding, you can check out

    Layout and functionality – Examples you can use

    or if coding is not your thing use my plugin Style Pack which will let you set up lots of stuff, including fixing the above

    can you check if it is being logged as spam

    Akismet

    If the service catches a topic that is spam, you will see it in the WordPress backend in the topics section under spam, and the same process for replies.

    ok, I can’t see why it isn’t working, although I still have the top menu as well as the side one in my test site.

    How did you turn off the top menu in your setup? I can’t instantly see how to do that

    ok, so sorry I know of nothing that will do that.

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    ok, I can’t see why that is happening from the tools side.

    Can you let me know how that menu item is set up – eg is it a page, a url link etc

    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

    find
    wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-anonymous.php
    Make a copy of this file, 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
    and you can amend this

    so you will need to take out lines 31-34 which say

    <p>
    			<label for="bbp_anonymous_website"><?php _e( 'Website:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
    			<input type="text" id="bbp_anonymous_website" value="<?php bbp_author_url(); ?>" tabindex="<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>" size="40" name="bbp_anonymous_website" />
    		</p>
    
    

    You should do this in a child theme, but if you do it in your main theme keepo a record as you will need to do this again on any theme update.

    Functions files and child themes – explained !

    I know what a 403 error is. I have been around quite a while and been around the block quite a few times.

    Sorry, but I have no idea what your level of knowledge is – how could I?

    My question is why am I getting this error only since I installed BBpress and BuddyPress?

    I don’t know – so sorry again !

    @robin-w

    Is this a new site, new problem, new to bbpress, when did it start happening, what else have you been doing, what versions of bbpress and wordpress are you running, what theme are you using
