    Not really about bbpress, more about security against spam on your site.

    you need to secure your website more from spam bots

    akismet helps, security plugins help , captchas help (bbpress recaptcha), cdns with security features help (cloudflare, incapsula)

    buddypress has extended profile fields that you can also put on the registration form

    buddypress also a bunch of other cool features too.

    you could add a link to the login widget , but you have to do this every upgrade.

    if you dont want to do that there is also 2 other solutions to this too in the link

    you need to make a bbpress.php file , edit out number of comments and whatever is calling the continue reading link.

    then your forum archive should look normal after that.

    you might be able to do this with css if the forum root has a certain class or id

    if it does use :before after the class/id and content:"N C L F" and then just style it to fit the rest of your breadcrumbs

    so your forums are displaying wrong?? and thats why you need to remove a link on the forum archive page.

    first do you have a forum named “forums”??

    because i think the breadcrumbs show like this if you have the forum root checked,

    forums>”forum name”

    if you want try unchecking use forum root in setting>forum in the backend of your site

    @mchl did the reply submitting slow down after you installed a specific plugin??

    cause i read the new site topic on your private forum, and it seems that users only started to complain about reply submitting being slow after you installed some plugins like unread posts and go to first unread posts.

    if it was always slow wait til @netweb gives you some info and ill do more research on the problem, if it was until you installed the plugins deactivate them and see if it makes a difference.

    idk what your talking about here when its all about a placeholder, that only a user can see if there logged in, you might be over-thinking it when you say this or you reply your information to the wrong topic that this user has.

    Maybe this??

    Customizing "Reply To Topic" Area


    @marximusmg

    i actually got a placeholder in my reply area , but you will lose the quick tag toolbar by doing it this way.

    in form-reply.php replace

    <?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_form_content' ); ?>
    
    					<?php bbp_the_content( array( 'context' => 'reply' ) ); ?>
    
    					<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_form_content' ); ?>

    with this

    <?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_form_content' ); ?>
    
    					<textarea placeholder="Reply..." id="bbp_reply_content" tabindex="104" name="bbp_reply_content"></textarea>
    
    					<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_form_content' ); ?>

    heres a snippet of form-reply.php with the code inserted

    <div class="bbp-template-notice">
    						<p><?php _e( 'Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML content.', 'bbpress' ); ?></p>
    					</div>
    
    				<?php endif; ?>
    
    				<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_notices' ); ?>
    
    				<div>
    
    					<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'anonymous' ); ?>
    
    					<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_form_content' ); ?>
    
    					<textarea placeholder="Reply..." id="bbp_reply_content" tabindex="104" name="bbp_reply_content"></textarea>
    
    					<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_form_content' ); ?>
    
    					<?php if ( ! ( bbp_use_wp_editor() || current_user_can( 'unfiltered_html' ) ) ) : ?>
    
    						<p class="form-allowed-tags">
    							<label><?php _e( 'You may use these <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> tags and attributes:','bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
    							<code><?php bbp_allowed_tags(); ?></code>
    						</p>

    hmmm i thought you could be able to disable it with 0 , but i really havent tried that yet.

    you could hide the link with css and also php i guess so the time wouldnt even matter since there isnt a link to edit at all.

    heres with css

    a.bbp-reply-edit-link {
    display:none;
    }

    for topics just change reply to topic

    Do you have any ideas on how I can make my registration form attractive for people to register?

    use some css

    Are there any examples of other sites?

    not really on the top of my head

    Should I create a widget area above the forum as well?

    thats all you, you make that decision.

    ~15seconds to reply

    hell id be pissed too if its 15 seconds

    ok im going to be signing up for your website in a minute , and ill see first hand on these slow replies.

    but hey if you want your users to stay active on your forum , i think using tapatalk might help for a while as your users wait til you get this help on your replies on your websites actual forum but yeah im not sure on this.

    crazy alternative while this gets fixed is make a subreddit. (i seen sites do this)

    or of course stay active on other social media sites like facebook or twitter

    nevermind on the CDN

    but do post a link to your forum

    i actually want to see how long it takes to load

    when i respond using LMGTFY its normally a dig at the other person

    XD haha alright

    ive eliminated all the points you’ve made above, and the site only chokes when users are submitting posts in the forum, so I’m confident i’ve isolated the issue.

    great!! i was hoping you did , because any second shaved in loading helps.

    as mentioned i’m coping heaps of flack for the performance of the forum and losing users so i hope you can appreciate why there’s an element of urgency.

    post more information about how you are setup on your site. (this is good for support of others users)

    do you have threaded replies active? (this always took awhile to load on a reply for me)
    do you have the forum on root? (some huge bbpress forums i saw have the forum on a subdomain)
    do you have a cdn? (i checked two huge forums that use bbpress and they use cloudflare)

    here are the forums
    http://tamrielfoundry.com/forums
    http://www.highexistence.com/discussions

    and also can you post a link to your forum?

    haha i read everything

    what i just doing is lead you to a google search , it was suppose to help you to find info that might help you

    any kind of information is good when trying to speed up a website.

    i dont know if you use alot of bbpress plugins or plugins that work with it and you need to optimize scripts and css handling.

    or if your forums have alot embedded images or uploaded images.

    or that you need a database optimizer plugin

    im just trying to help you on a pretty broad question

    i wasnt trying to be rude or anything if you took it that way

    other than that i guess wait til 2.6

    @netweb
    meant if your question pertains to bbpress

    post your topic here https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting#postform

    and how wordpress works on posting support forums , if its plugins or themes they have their own support forums, but its just any other wordpress stuff post in some of these forums in this link

    in the original bbpress theme

    in loop-single-topic.php your freshness column should have this

    the bolded text is what shows the avatar,
    to make it bigger just make the number higher
    high existence uses 40 , they have border radius css to make it rounded

    
    <li class="bbp-topic-freshness">
    
    		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_freshness_link' ); ?>
    
    		<?php bbp_topic_freshness_link(); ?>
    
    		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_freshness_link' ); ?>
    
    		<p class="bbp-topic-meta">
    
    			<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_freshness_author' ); ?>
    
    			<strong><span class="bbp-topic-freshness-author"><?php bbp_author_link( array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_topic_last_active_id(), 'size' => 14 ) ); ?></span></strong>
    
    			<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_freshness_author' ); ?>
    
    		</p>
