no problem – I’m glad you’re fixed !!
We all learn all the time đ
ok, now that you have explained what it is, I understand and can help !
In the code is
// NOTICE! Understand what this does before running. $post_id = bbp_insert_topic($topic_data, $topic_meta); bbp_stick_topic($post_id , true); // Making it super sticky !If you had done this – ie Understand what this does before running.
you would have known the answer –sticky sticks a topic to the top of the forum it belongs in.
super-sticky sticks a topic to the top of all forums
In reply to: font and background colors make forum unreadableGreat – glad you are fixed !
I answer q’s across many forums, and don’t have the time to work out what it is trying to do so what’s the purpose of the code then?
no sorry I still don’t know what exactly your issue is.
WITHOUT THE CODE – what is the problem?
In reply to: Can’t get Forums to appear properlygreat – glad you’re fixed
In reply to: Can’t get Forums to appear properlyI suspect it is a theme issue.
But if you have created a page and put the shortcode in and that works, then why is this not the solution?
ps whilst your link is probably fine, MacAfee advised me that it was a suspect site, so I didn’t view your png
sorry but I am not sure what exactly the issue is.
It would seem that
Without your code you have problem a
and with your code you have problem b
is that it, AND IF SO can you state your problem without the code you added?

In reply to: The status of bbPress?Starting by complaining about how something that is free doesn’t do it for you is not really the way to get help.
I suspect that bbpress isn’t for you.

In reply to: Freshness all wrongIt 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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
Then come back

In reply to: Forum Page not createdsorry someone has edited that page and made it less helpful.
Try
Now we have some forums, we need to have somewhere to display them.
There are two ways to do this. Most themes support method 1, and this can (can not will) produce tighter theme integration on style [Note this was true for v 2.2 not sure if it still is !]. However Method 2 allows you to have some introductory words. Your choice…!
Method 1
This requires a couple of checks first
a. In Dashboard>settings>forums look for what is set in the forum root under the forum root slug heading. The default is ‘forums’ but you can set this to anything
b. In Dashboard>settings>permalinks check that the common settings check is set to ‘postname’ If it isn’t and you don’t want to change it, then use method 2.
Now just create a wordpress page that has the heading that was found in a. above eg if the root slug is ‘forums’ create a page with the title ‘forums’, and save.
Once the permalink has been created, you can rename the page to whatever you wish eg ‘mysite forums’ (as the permalink will stay the same, and it is this permalink that bbpress looks for)
Save this page, add it to a menu if you are using custom menus, or decide its order if you have automatic menus. Then publish it to your site.
Job done!
Method 2
If either your theme doesn’t work with method 1, you don’t want permalinks with postname, or you want to use some introductory text (eg “welcome to our forums…”, then method 2 is for you.
In dashboard>pages
go to add new page
Call this âForumsâ or whatever you want your menu item to be.
Then in the content section, you may want to have some introductory words âwelcome to the forumâ etc. then add the following bbpress shortcode
[bbp-forum-index]
Save this page, add it to a menu if you are using custom menus, or decide its order if you have automatic menus. Then publish it to your site.
You will now have a forum page, and a forum to display.In reply to: Bbpress forum preview button not working ?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

In reply to: Forum Page not createdIn reply to: Changing font size for simple mortals?great – glad you’re fixed !
can’t see the tags anymore – hopefully another mod has deleted them
In reply to: remove ‘Viewing x posts – x through x (of x total)’Quickest way is to hide it using css
so in your style.css add
.bbp-pagination-count { display: none; }https://codex.bbpress.org/functions-files-and-child-themes-explained/
