I did open Filezilla and I searched for “cache” — I found a cache.php file, but I didn’t even attempt to go mucking about in there!

yep , dont edit files or delete any files you might cause another issue with your site.

I’m a little glad to hear that you’ve possibly had a similar problem; maybe I can ask some other people on the site to try out different browsers and see if I need to go clean out my CPU cache.

something like it , im sure its common too , like i said i dont remember 100%

If you have a chance to add more classes to the CSS code, I would be extremely grateful. I really appreciate the time and effort you’ve spent on my issues.

i tested with your theme and this seemed to work.

.bbpress span#favorite-toggle a,
.bbpress span#subscription-toggle a {
	color: #000;
}

.bbpress span#favorite-toggle a:hover,
.bbpress span#subscription-toggle a:hover {
	color: #707070;
}

@davidnsfw

thats great

@danajoy2008

I’m really not sure — I have no record of installing a cache plugin, and I can’t recall when I noticed that button up there. I’m totally confused.

can it be your host?? or you could be using something like Wordfence that also has caching in it??

I’ve put the code your posted above into the Simple Custom CSS, but the Favorite and Subscribe buttons are still blue. Was there something I was supposed to do besides just cutting and pasting?

i probably need to add more classes to the CSS code.

Also, this is strange: After I clicked on “flush cache,” I could immediately see the blue links when I had the site open in Chrome. When I open Firefox and pull up the site, I can’t see any blue — it’s all gray again.

it might also be collected browser cache on your CPU, not 100% sure though.
i think i had that problem before.

@davidnsfw

alright since i think your site has jetpack installed

make sure you have the custom css module activated in jetpack .

now go to appearance > edit css

copy this code into your custom css editor.

.bbpress .post-section {
  margin: 0 2% 20px 2%;
  width: 96%;
}

.bbpress #content-main {
  width: 100%;
  margin-right: 0;
}

hit save

check and see if it works

if the code does work, reply back on here that it works now.

if the code doesnt work i need to see if any Custom CSS on bbPress would show . so copy and replace my old CSS code that you just previously pasted

with this code

.bbpress a {
  color: red;
}

now see if your links on your forum are red

if it turns red, reply back here that your links are red and that i need to add more classes to your original CSS so i could make your forum full width.

[Robkk]

@davidnsfw

yeah , a place where you can drop CSS code snippets

[Robkk]

@davidnsfw

alright

do you have a Custom CSS area like the options i put above??

[Robkk]

@danajoy2008

do you know where the flush cache button came from??

[Robkk]

These two Custom CSS rules should help.

put them anywhere you can put custom CSS

child themes style.css file
jetpacks custom CSS module
a standalone custom css plugin.

.bbpress .post-section {
  margin: 0 2% 20px 2%;
  width: 96%;
}

.bbpress #content-main {
  width: 100%;
  margin-right: 0;
}

if this does not work try this CSS for a test

if the links in your forum turn red the CSS is working.

.bbpress a {
  color: red;
}

if the links are red and my above CSS rules for full width arent working i probably have to redo the CSS rules i gave you above to include more div classes which will be super annoying.

[Robkk]

I’m still working on how to disable caching for logged in users.

what cache plugin are you using??

Is there a way to make it so that the Favorite and Subscribe buttons aren’t blue too?

here i think i copied how the sidebar links are shown.

.bbpress a.favorite-toggle,
.bbpress a.subscription-toggle {
    color: #000;
}

.bbpress a.favorite-toggle:hover,
.bbpress a.subscription-toggle:hover {
    color: #707070;
}

[Robkk]

Slightly NSFW

i laughed at this.

@davidnsfw add !important after 96% like this

.bbpress #content-main {
width: 96% !important;
}

and see if that works.

@pazzaglia1

you are running into a couple issues.

As for some users i can see their profile leads to a 404 too.

create me an Admin account and send me the login details by email so i can see what plugins you are using , if there is a code snippet causing an issue, your theme , or something else.

when im done helping you , you can delete the account.

Contact

[Robkk]

here is the reply

[Robkk]

@danajoy2008

i see its using my CSS that i gave you above

it also works for the reply i just didnt take a pic of that.

can you not see it like this??

it might be a cache issue.

disable caching for logged in users , cache plugins usually recommend this for membership sites lik sites that have forums.

There should be an option in whatever cache plugin you are using.

[Robkk]

this should do it, place in child theme functions.php or a functionality plugin

function bm_bbp_no_breadcrumb ($param) {
	
	if (bbp_is_forum_archive()) {

		return true;

	}

}

add_filter ('bbp_no_breadcrumb', 'bm_bbp_no_breadcrumb');

@svend-rugaard

you can customize the title tag of your site using a seo plugin, there should be options to have a custom title for custom post type archives.

[Robkk]

you dont have to make a new topic/reply if you can find an existing topic and reply that has a link in each.

[Robkk]

@ebunny3k

copy the loop-forums.php file into your child theme in a folder called bbpress

https://github.com/robkk/bbPress-Hierarchical-Forum-and-Category-Layout

also i need to move this file to a gist….it seems more appropriate over there

[Robkk]

@ebunny3k

you were suppose to copy all the files in the github package and put it into your child theme , including the bbp-functions.php file

@aidacars

it might not be that great at being mobile responsive. the last time i tried it it wasnt that great

@jamesfranco2001

copy it all to your child theme

[Robkk]

@ebunny3k

are you talking about categories/subforums like this.

[Robkk]

if this isn’t possible, I totally understand.

no its possible , i forgot some periods though.

Here should be the full code , not shortened though.

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-content a,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content a {
    color: blue;
    text-decoration: underline;
}

if it still doesnt work , post a topic that has a couple links in the replies and topic post and i can find some CSS that would work with your theme.

[Robkk]

no problem

[Robkk]

@andrew55

You could hire a coder at any freelance website like http://jobs.wordpress.net/

But yeah like you said its not a huge issue.

[Robkk]

how did you make the change in the jetpack module??

all you had to do was make sure you have the custom CSS module activated in Jetpack then go to Appearance > Edit CSS then place the snippet there.

since i think you edited the plugin files which you dont need to.

You setup FTP with your site which usually your server will have some kind of tutorial for setting up FTP.

Then you go to wp-content > plugins > jetpack

then rename the plugin to jetpack-deactive to deactivate it temporarily to see if that fixes the issue.

Now you either revert what you changed in the plugin , or delete then reinstall Jetpack so you could get an unaltered version of the plugin.

Then add the CSS in the instructions i gave you above.

[Robkk]

@joymoleta

yeah someone should fork that plugin

great that you got what you wanted though.

[Robkk]

@joymoleta

i just tried it and it seemed to work.

did you place the function correctly??

can you currently see the @mentions dropdown in the buddypress activity post-forms.
