    maybe look through these, bbpress simply uses custom post types of ‘forum’, ‘topic’ and ‘reply’, so any that will let you add custom posts types should be fine

    I just added yarpp, it looks like it recognizes these as ‘buddypress topics’ – buddypress uses bbpress forum

    you’d need to ask yarpp what you need to do

    This is one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
    install

    bbp style pack

    once activated, navigate to

    dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.

    In that tab, select

    Enable Theme Support

    and save

    I suspect this is a theme issue.

    But in essence you are asking what is wrong with your car without letting us examine it 🙂

    The issue is defining what a ‘related topic’ is !

    try adding this to your theme’s custom css

    @media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
    
    #bbpress-forums .bbp-body div.bbp-reply-author, #bbpress-forums .bbp-body div.bbp-topic-author {
    	float: none;
    	margin: 0px; 
    	min-height: 2px;
    }
    
    }

    sorry, I’m sure it can be done, but not something I’ve tried.

    So do you want to bbpress profile to show some woocommerce things or visa versa?

    @robin-w

    You would need to amend

    bbpress\templates\default\bbpress\loop-topics.php
    bbpress\templates\default\bbpress\loop-single-topic.php

    so for loop topics find
    wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-topics.php

    transfer this to your pc and edit as required

    and save

    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

    Then transfer the file you saved above 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-topics.php
    bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

    repeat for loop-single-topic.php

    you would then need to change the style css to amend width.

    Sorry beyond free help to actually do the answer, if you’d like me to do this as a paid job, then contact me via

    This code will truncate the title

    add_filter ('bbp_new_topic_pre_title' , 'rew_limit_topic_length' ) ;
    add_filter ('bbp_edit_topic_pre_title' , 'rew_limit_topic_length' ) ;
    
    function rew_limit_topic_length  ($topic_title) {
    	$length = 40 ;
    	if (strlen($topic_title) > $length) {
    		$topic_title = substr($topic_title, 0, $length);
    	}
    return $topic_title ;
    }

    Put this in your child theme’s function file –

    ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

    where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

    or use

    Code Snippets

    for your second issue, it is site/theme specific, I’d need to see the site and a real example

    when you click on a user from where? – as admin you may well be able to see things that a participant cannot.

    I sort of did this ten years ago (it was how I got into bbpress)

    Documented import from snitz access database

    if you read from the start, but I went via excel, so from there should be relevant.

    bbp style pack

    and activate

    From that screen you can set up new users to be subscribed

    and from

    dashboard>forums>all forums>and for each forum click subscriptions and you can subscribe all then current users to that forum in a couple of clicks. Repeat for all current forums

    still playing with this – am now chatting to one of the FSE advocates within wordpress – so hoping that we will make progress

    it could be a theme or plugin issue

    Themes

    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
