    bbpress has a quirk (or it’s simply the way it works), where if you have no bbpress role, on login it gives you the default one.

    I know nothing of multisite, but maybe Simplest way is to change your bbpress role to blocked?

    ok, on issue 1

    Not sure what you are asking? You decide what to show in dashboard>settings>bbp topic count.

    If that doesn’t answer, come back with a url to a specific page and exactly what you want removed.

    on issue 2.

    You just create a directory in your child theme called bbpress and any files you change in there

    eg

    wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php

    where
    %your-theme-name%

    is the actual name of your theme !

    subscribe is shown above the forums and topics for logged in users.

    bbpress authors have not released these bits as widgets, which is a shame as the bits on the left are quite useful !

    hmmm… you might fall between two plugins.

    However I’d suggest you post this on the buddypress support groups as groups are a buddypress construct.

    bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

    It could be 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.

    Then come back

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

    not a quick php answer.

    looks like css might be the way to go

    Twenty Fifteen, no sidebar

    but you want it specifically for forums (although not sure how they’ll navigate out again).

    forums use

    #bbpress-forums as the css tag, so maybe combine that with the code abiove

    @flyfisherscorner – unfortunately the way bbpress works means that changing theme widths rarely works – Don’t blame me, I didn’t write it !

    I’ve just looked and the code I suggested is not there, have you taken it away again?

    I tested it on your site and it worked.

    Are you sure you reloaded then site afterwards – some browsers remember style.css’s so the changes don’t always seem to have taken unless you refresh them, or shutdown/restart the browser.

    link/url please

    add this to your style.css

    #bbpress-forums {
    width: 700px !important;
    }

    I would suggest contact the theme’s author support forum, but there seems to be no support responses !

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    no sorry – I can see nothing wrong with the code – it seems fine, so don’ know why it is doing this.

    as long as you have tried

    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.

    which you say you have, then can you list all the forum settings in dashboard>settings> forums in case there’s something in there.

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    Yes, of course I wrote a topic title, but no, there is no place to write content. It is only the first page where you create a topic.

    hmmm… yes there should be somewhere to write content, and every topic has to have a title and some content.

    suggest you try creating a topic in the backend to prove its all ok

    dashboard>topics>new topic

    then come back

    @robin-w

    and have you uninstalled the plugin?

    ok, you should not change the default bbpress.css as this gets trashed by upgrades

    you should put the bbpress.css file into your theme, and preferably a child theme, as otherwise theme upgrades will delete it.

    See
    functions-files-and-child-themes-explained

    you could also use

    https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbp-style-pack

    which may well do all that you want, and isn’t lost when bbpress or themes are upgraded

    @robin-w

    ok, the back to discussions link is being put in either by your theme or by a plugin (maybe buddypress)

    SO

    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.

    and have you upgraded bbpress twice recently?

    In reply to: Style Keeps Reverting

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    ok, can you tell us exactly what the steps are for

    I replace the CSS

    eg, I goointo this, and click that, and press this, and then I hit the save button on the bottom right etc.

    @robin-w

    @manavforum

    again the same as for bbpress – but you can use the bbpress login widget or use

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

    @awpt – can you help us to help others who may have this issue.

    Did you have user role editor already? – so that this plugin might be the one having the issue?
    If not what other plugins did you have?
    And if you installed it just to fix, what exactly did you do one you have installed it, is it just a reset?

    By the way for your information bbpress doesn’t have it own tables, it uses the custom post types of forum, topic and reply.
