post a job and hire a developer to create this for you.

explain to me where you put the code and how you did everything so i could see if you did anything wrong or not.
and also what theme are you using.
i think there is a setting to turn previous comments into bbPress replies in the discussion settings in the wp-backend > settings > discussion .
I’d set these to show short excerpts only
is this an option in your themes settings??
but im going to assume your theme thinks bbPress is a blog post , adn that you should create a bbpress.php file and remove any unwanted code.

this plugin will help you find the right file to copy to create a bbpress.php file.

i see you also made a topic at BuddyPress.
i think Dan already helped you on this , but if you have any specific questions for bbPress you can ask away.

bbPress shouldnt have comments??
if you havent already create a bbpress.php file and remove any code for WordPress comments.

this plugin will help find the file you have to make a copy of to create a bbpress.php file

post a link to your website so i could take a look at it.
this custom CSS should do it.
span.bbp-reply-post-date {
display: none;
}
create a bbpress.php and remove any post meta code like by (author) published (post date)
basically your theme thinks that the bbPress archive page is a blog post so it structures it like so , it keeps the forum limit low as if it was an excerpt.

this plugin will help you find the file you would need to copy and create a bbpress.php file from.

sorry for not replying earlier , but im glad you solved your own issue.
you can use this as an alternative if you want.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-postviews/
you would have to put this code somewhere in your loop-single-topic.php file in your child theme.
<?php if(function_exists('the_views')) { the_views(); } ?>
Maybe replace voice count?? or create a new column?? or just like simple view counts has like this.
function rk_bbp_postviews() {
if (function_exists('the_views')) {
echo the_views();
}
}
add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_started_by', 'rk_bbp_postviews' );
heck you can even use jetpack for post views.
you have to add on to the code.
the original is this
// Span
'span' => array(
'class' => true,
),
you would have to edit it like this
// Span
'span' => array(
'class' => true,
'style' => true,
),
and probably the same thing for the paragraph tag ‘p’ , but for this you will need to just add it on like this.
// Paragraph
'p' => array(
'dir' => true,
'style' => true,
),
basically any child elements of the tag add it in the function.
its not just for Admins , it could be useful to moderators in bbPress’s case , and also be handy for participant users if you have BuddyPress installed.
you can install this plugin to remove access for certain user roles.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-admin-no-show/
you insert this into a child themes function.php file or a functionality plugin
function rk_show_role_classes($classes) {
$replyid = bbp_get_reply_author_id();
$bbp_get_role = bbp_get_user_display_role($replyid);
$bbp_display_role = strtolower($bbp_get_role);
$classes[] = $bbp_display_role;
return $classes;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_class','rk_show_role_classes' );
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_class','rk_show_role_classes' );
this custom css you can put in your child themes style.css file or a custom css plugin.
#bbpress-forums .bbp-body .keymaster div.bbp-topic-content,
#bbpress-forums .bbp-body .keymaster div.bbp-reply-content,
#bbpress-forums .bbp-body .moderator div.bbp-topic-content,
#bbpress-forums .bbp-body .moderator div.bbp-reply-content {
background: #f8f8f8 url(images/team-member.png) top right no-repeat;
}
now for this to work exactly like the other site , you can download this image from here, by right clicking save image as, then uploading the image to your child theme in a folder called images. Make sure its named “team-member”
sorry i forgot about this.
but since you have a full width forum try adding all this CSS to have bbPress look better.
.bbpress-forums .col-2cl .main {
padding-right: 0;
}
.bbpress .site,
.bbpress .site-header,
.bbpress .site-content .entry-header,
.bbpress .site-content .entry-content,
.bbpress .site-content .entry-summary,
.bbpress .site-content .entry-meta,
.bbpress .page-content {
max-width: 100%;
}
.bbpress .hentry {
margin: 0 auto 48px;
max-width: 100%;
}
@media screen and (min-width: 1008px) {
.bbpress .site-content {
margin-right: 0;
margin-left: 182px;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width: 1080px) {
.bbpress .site-content {
margin-left: 222px;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width: 1218px) {
.bbpress .site-content .entry-content {
margin-right: 0;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width: 673px) {
.bbpress .site-content {
margin-right: 0;
}
}
link to your site so i can check the source code
ah i see will look into it more then.
@davidnsfw
alright i sent some messages already
just checked the code and i can see that you really stripped a lot of the bbPress default code out.
alot of bbPress specific plugins i can expect not to work correctly because of this, and maybe even some snippets would not work anymore.
first change the PHP function to this, it bugged me that its not lowercase.
function rk_show_role_classes($classes) {
$replyid = bbp_get_reply_author_id();
$bbp_get_role = bbp_get_user_display_role($replyid);
$bbp_display_role = strtolower($bbp_get_role);
$classes[] = $bbp_display_role;
return $classes;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_class','rk_show_role_classes' );
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_class','rk_show_role_classes' );
Thats CSS in the topic you linked to , put it anywhere you can put custom css
a child themes style.css file
a custom css plugin
this is basically what you would need in your code.
#bbpress-forums .bbp-body .moderator div.bbp-topic-content,
#bbpress-forums .bbp-body .moderator div.bbp-reply-content {
background: #f8f8f8 url(images/team-badge-head.png) top right no-repeat;
}
you will need an image in your child theme in a folder called images though for what they have.
you can test it out by just changing the background color for the users.
#bbpress-forums .bbp-body .keymaster div.bbp-topic-content,
#bbpress-forums .bbp-body .keymaster div.bbp-reply-content {
background: blue;
}
there should be classes inserted for every role
.keymaster = Keymaster
.moderator = Moderator
.participant = Participant
.guest = Guest
what the heck it should do the opposite.
create me an admin account so i can try to find what could be causing the issue with your site.
send the login details to my email.
i will email you when i start checking everything out , and i will not touch anything. just look over and see if there might be an issue.
