Thank you very much for all of this. Here is my progress:
OK example:
Not Logged in View
Loggedin As Admin view
Note the reply form underneath.
Also clicking any of the links would put the reply in the top (only) content as opposed to the original post.
Hi Stephen,
I had actually created the custom template previously and tried what you said. But all it does is eliminate the content and this is why I moved on to try to identify what is going on in the function. I would much rather not touch the function code and do everything via custom template for a lot of reasons including staying safe with future updates.
As it is, if I remove the reply_content code in the child theme, it still leaves the replies in there but just with no content in them other than the author area. If I remove the author area as well then I no longer see anything but there are no links to the replies.
I tried figuring out some sort of reply_url but nothing has worked for me – where I’m stuck. The closest I’ve come is to use this:
<?php bbp_reply_url(); ?>
in that same area. The result is that I get plain text urls (not hyperlinks) in a thread tree of sorts. However those links do not link to the actual content of the reply. So what you get is like this:
The topic is at the url http://testsite.com/forum/topic/test1/
The content of the original post is at the top and underneath are urls like:
August 27, 2016 at 9:04 pm http://testsite.com/forum/topic/test1/#post-10
August 27, 2016 at 9:06 pm http://testsite.com/forum/topic/test1/#post-11
August 27, 2016 at 9:03 pm http://testsite.com/forum/topic/test1/#post-8
August 27, 2016 at 9:04 pm http://testsite.com/forum/topic/test1/#post-9
If I go to any of those urls then it just displays the original post and scrolls down to where that URL exists in the tree below the original post content. The actual content of the reply is not displayed – just the content of the original post.
my replies seem to be getting blocked is there a reason?
[mod note: Fixed. Be aware of our 2 link limit.]
I’m totally stuck on this. What I need is one post per page with a tree view of the thread under the post linking to the individual replies. Does that make sense? Rather than all of the messages displayed together on the page. Should I post this in a different forum?
Hi, I’m looking for this option as well. Were you able to get any help or achieve it?
OK so I’ve had some limited success thanks to your help, but I am stuck on where the replies are displayed. What I have now is the main topic on top and then the paginated replies below.
I would like to get the replies to only be shown as links to the actual replies. I believe that I have isolated where this is in the code:
line 45 of the includes/replies/function.php
$reply_id = wp_insert_post( $reply_data );
Am I on the right track here or totally off base?

Thank you for the reply Stephen. I will work on this the next few hours and see if I can do it.
