In reply to: Edit post means you need to retype entire post
In a word – no !
bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes
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.
Then come back
In reply to: Only certain forums VERY slowhmmm… not sure what to suggest next – you have done good research and testing, and have a good problem definition.
So the forms have similar structure, and the problem is both in backend and front end. Disabling other plugins and changing theme has made no difference.
ok all I can think to do is to move a slow forum into a fast category (dashboard>forums>edit forum and change parent), and see if the problem stays with the forum. That might help define if it is a forum issue or a category issue.
In reply to: Only certain forums VERY slowI’d try running the repairs first
Dashboard>tools>forums and use repair tab and run one at a time
In reply to: Close Options menu on second click/tapok, no problem, come back when you are ready 🙂
In reply to: Change the main forum page andThere’s a question in there somewhere !
can you provide a URL to the issue and clearly state what is wrong.
In reply to: Close Options menu on second click/tapIf it works on PC, tablets etc. but doesn’t on a mobile, this will not be code functionality, but either JS or CSS.
Given that few mods will have the time to work out what this code is doing, let alone load it to their site, a URL to a page where it works on a PC but doesn’t on a mobile would be useful.
In reply to: Close Options menu on second click/tapwithout even looking in detail, I’d suggest that ‘380px’ on a mobile is the problem.

In reply to: Recents topicsload my style pack, and you’ll find a shortcode to do just this
In reply to: Post/Reply text runs over date bar on mobileThe issue is on line 307 of sccss which says
.bbp-reply-content > p { font-size: 14px; margin-left: -37px !important; }The margin left is causing it to display incorrectly
Thanks for that – much appreciated !
So I can help others – what version of wordpress are you running?
ah… I know why it does that, explained here
In reply to: No emails are being sentwould suggest you post a question on their support site
In reply to: sidebar not automatically showing on new user Topicscontact me via my website
http://www.rewweb.co.ukIn reply to: No emails are being sentand of course
By default, you do NOT receive emails for your own topics/replies, only if somebody else replies on your subscribed topics
so testing would need two email accounts to prove !
ok, so you have the same loop-topics.pho loaded into both themes?
so where in your theme do you call bbp_has_topics?
In reply to: No emails are being sentok, so

In reply to: No emails are being sentlots of things !
Start with
1. You should be aware that many spam filters strip messages that do not come from the correct address. So if your site is mysite.com and your email address in wordpress settings>general is fred@gmail.com then it is likely that messages will be dumped in transit. You need to set up email to come from your site eg fred@mysite.com, your hosting provider can help if needed.
2. Just bbpress?
Then you need to see if this is wordpress wide or just bbpress.
Try https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/Then come back

In reply to: How to hide a user IPPascal’s method is better as the ip address is never sent to a PC. With the css code, it is entirely possible for anyone to get hold of the ip address, as it is sent to the PC, and viewable using developer tools.
In reply to: What is Username displayed by default?Ok I’ve done some testing.
bbpress uses the display_name as stored in wp_user table.
If you allow registration
ie – Dashboard>settings>membership – anyone can registerthen yes, the user_nicename and the display_name in wp_user table are the same and the same as the username entered by the person registering.
If you don’t allow registration, and you add users manually
ie Dashboard>users>add new user
and you don’t enter the first and last name, then the user_nicename and display_name are the same
BUT if you enter the firstname and lastname, then the nice_name is the username, but the display_name is saved as firstname followed by lastname !
So a bit of inconsistency by WordPress.
Now display_name is all that we can play with in bbpress, and users can change their display_name under bbpress in the profile area.
So I plan to put a function in my style pack that will let the user choose what the default display_name is, and optionally disable users from creating a nickname and/or changing the default.
In reply to: Setting up a Simple(r) Single-Page Forumyou’re welcome
In reply to: Forums footer is missingok – not sure what to suggest next, it’s a page.php thing I’d expect, and dependant on your theme
