thanks
search should just look at the forums, but other elements such as themes or other plugins can change that.
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.
Plugins
If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users
Health Check & Troubleshooting
Then come back
the appearance>widgets that you showed are not widgets but sidebars that contain widgets – there is no bbpress sidebar.
just tried it on your site, all went fine and am now registered on your site.
@enkoes
Thanks, that saved a couple of hours of my life 🙂 🙂
it moves easily in the backend.
but agree would be good to have in the front end – I’ll take a look
When a specific keyword is searched for in the search form, it searches across all pages on the site. How can I set it up so that it only searches within the forum?
is this the forum search widget – if so link to a live example please
Also, the widget for bbPress is not visible in the widget area. How can I set it up to be visible?
Widgets
please explain which widget you mean
If you get it working, do post back your solution
ok that is not a tweaked WordPress toolbar, just a ‘look alike’
the code would be somewhere in here
https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/buddypress.org/public_html/wp-content/themes/bb-base
But it would take ages to find it, so sorry not sure I can help
great – glad you are fixed !!
try this
.single-topic .navigation {
display : none !important;
}
add this to the custom css in my plugin or your theme’s custom css area
probably theme related – link to a live example please
@ibnat hey that is great – would you mind if I added generic versions of this to the bbpress documentation?
if you mean the stuff on the left of this, then
install
bbp style pack
If you then go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>widgets
you will see additional widgets for the forum and topic info
if you can create a sidebar, you can add the forum info and topic info widgets there
Not exactly the left, but part way there !!
not That I know of, but of you write one, then please post it here so ithers can benefit
see the previous public/private in the other thread
public forums are visible to both logged in users and visitors
Private forums are only visible to logged in users.
If you want to have a more sub groups then add this further plugin
Private groups
so it used to work, and has now stopped working – yes? Do you know how long ago it stopped working, and what you have updated recently?
if you wanted to automatically create a topic with say ‘Wednesday@ in the title, yes it is possible but beyond free help.
You would need to create a cron task that would fire daily to create the topic with whatever heading and content you wanted.
If you wanted to manually create a topic which would appear the next day, then in
dashboard>topics>add new you would edit ‘publish immediately’ to set the date and time.
You could use this to once a week manually create say 7 topics with publish dates set for each day of the week, and they would appear automatically each day.
You give very little information – forums new/old? worked before/never worked etc.
but if closed then open them
dashboard>forums>all forums and edit each one to open it.
dashboard>appearance>themes
please do post if you get better info, but presume this is something that cloudways has done?
so what theme are you using?
you could also add the
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>theme support
which will give you some further instructions
it that the whole error or is there other data at the ‘…’ parts?
