[Robkk]

i see it on the right..i think.

is it a userpro widget or does it do this automatically??

if its just a userpro widget , and you want to remove the sidebar from all bbPress forum areas create a bbpress.php from page.php or single.php and remove all the content you dont need especially the get_sidebar php code.

heres some help on creating a bbpress.php

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/

if userpro does it automatically contact the plugin author.

if you need any help creating a bbpress.php file and removing the unnecessary code you wouldnt need , reply back and possibly paste your page.php file first.

@dealtek

dont edit the core files or you will lose them the next time you update bbPress.

please follow this guide instead

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

and please create a child theme as the guide says to , because it will make customizing bbPress alot easier. you can edit all the bbPress templates that you have copied to your child theme safely if you go to appearance>editor and choose your child theme and find the bbPress templates/css, you can also use FTP and a advanced text editor like notepad++ to edit files on your cpu.

here is more information on child themes

Functions files and child themes – explained !

the left margin CSS for bbPress threaded replies is

#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-threaded-replies {
	        margin-left: 50px;
	}

to make it smaller for a small device use something like this.

put it anywhere you can put custom CSS

or if you copied the CSS file into a folder called bbpress into your child theme , you can add it below

/*--------------------------------------------------------------
	 Media Queries
	--------------------------------------------------------------*/
	
	/* =Standard Mobile Landscape
	-------------------------------------------------------------- */
	@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {

@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-threaded-replies {
	        margin-left: 20px;
	}
}

you can remove the reply author image too if you want

@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author a.bbp-author-avatar,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author a.bbp-author-avatar {
	        display: none;
	}
}

it might be a theme issue, if you havent created a bbpress.php file please do so it usually fixes most common theme issues.

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/

you can also link to your site and see if i can find any conflicting CSS that might be causing the issue.

[Robkk]

contact the gd bbpress tools plugin author

common issue with yoast breadcrumbs.

/**
 * Filter to call default bbPress breadcrumbs
 */
add_filter( 'bbp_get_breadcrumb', 'myfix_bbp_get_breadcrumb', 1, 3 );
function myfix_bbp_get_breadcrumb($trail, $crumbs, $r){
        // This will remove wordpress-seo filter to disable bbPress breadcrums by default
        remove_all_filters("bbp_get_breadcrumb",10);
        return $trail;
}

use this to enable bbPress breadcrumbs

[Robkk]

@alice-kaye

i dont know what could have caused that

you can also hide it with CSS

.bbp-forum-description,
.bbp-topic-description {
display:none;
}

[Robkk]

the bbcodes notice i think you can turn that off in the plugin your using, i think its gd bbpress tools.

you can remove the unrestricted html notice with some CSS if you want its only displayed to Admins/Keymasters only, so its not that big of a deal.

you can use this PHP code to remove the notice above the topics/forums

add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_forum_description', 'ja_return_blank' );
add_filter( 'bbp_get_single_topic_description', 'ja_return_blank' );
function ja_return_blank() {
    return '';
}

i creep BuddyPress forums here and there , but yeah i read that topic

i think someone brought this up awhile ago on the #bbpress slack channel too. Specifically the Pimp your Press forum.

i don’t think its really a hierarchy issue and more about people not knowing exactly what a forum is for and how they interpret it to be.

For example one user could think that Pimp your Press could be to “show off your bbPress installation” to another it could be “How could i tweak/design my bbPress installation?”

i think they should just bring back the descriptions of the forums and place them sort of like they did in 2011 in the link i posted above, so that users know what exactly the forum is for.

As for bbpress.org changing the forum archive to a different layout, who knows. It does look real nice how it is now and like i said i don’t hierarchy is not really a problem, but if they did change it i think they would because they had the same layout for a couple of years.

oh and the epicwebs theme hierarchy is not part of core , the developer just did a cool function to use bbPress’s code to look that way. There is i think 2-3 ways to do that type of hierarchy, and the other two ways are in a bbpress trac ticket scheduled to be in a future version of bbPress.

@atlantis1525

well i see your forum url links have double slashes in it

<a href="http://www.nadirkitaplar.net/forums//genel/">Genel</a>

did you edit the slugs in settings>forums

[Robkk]

try this

@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author img.avatar {
position: relative;
width: 60px;
height: auto;
}
}

[Robkk]

if the author is not anonymous, use the user_url

it would be better to keep how it is leading to the userprofile just in case someone didnt input their website url in their profile.

else use the comment website url

this sounds like you want to use the website field in the anonymous user form when they post.

so basically you want it to act sort of like how wordpress comments handles the comment author link on this one.

am i right??

@jkrytus

if your worried make sure to take a backup of your site before you do it on your live site.

other than that you can see how easy it is watching this video.

@atlantis1525

on the backend of wordpress you can see a menu item called toward the bottom-left called settings, from there , there is more settings for things like discussion , writing , and permalinks.

here is what it looks like

[Robkk]

@jaydd

was bbPress working fine for awhile then this error came out of nowhere??

did this error come after you imported forums into bbPress??

do you have a large number of topics/replies??

have you followed these two guides for developing your child theme for bbPress??

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

are your permalinks set to post-name??

also could you paste an example url of the original topic url and the url you get when you have a 404 error.

[Robkk]

i think you can bring information from another page using an iframe , which some lightbox scripts could use. Or you could just hide it with inline CSS then whenever the button/link with the class/id used for the lightbox is clicked it would display whatever you hid.

you could use the shortcode like i said , because i think there is some modal popup form plugins that could just make life easier and you could input that shortcode and maybe place a template tag/use a shortcode in the template to show the popup for the reply form.

you could use <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘form’, ‘reply’ ); ?> in a template then configure your lightbox/popup code around that but you also need the PHP if statments so it doesnt show it to all users logged in or not.

other then what i sorta told you its still custom development , and you would need to hire a custom developer.

if you do have some ideas on what to use or code that you have been using but are quite not there you can try posting it and see if i can find some other information to help you or another developer from here can pick this up.

@s1r0n

its shows on topic/reply forms , registration/login/lost-password forms, and comment forms (normal users dont see it though.)

it should help some to fight automated spambots

@usaemkt1

please dont bump old topics , and you can also use imgur since they now offer unlimited uploads for free , plus links to the images automatically embed using oembed.

there is also cloudup thats is part of automattic.

[Robkk]

troubleshoot to find if you can pinpoint the problem.

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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

[Robkk]

i think this is some custom development go post a job at http://jobs.wordpress.net/

[Robkk]

@cebutours

usually creating a bbpress.php file would fix this issue.

this is not really that important , its just a tagline.
