ok, you need to get this code into your site.

@media screen and (max-width: 400px) {
.list-view .site-content .cat-links, .list-view .site-content .entry-content, .list-view .site-content .entry-summary, .list-view .site-content footer.entry-meta {
    display: initial !important;
}

}

There are many ways to do this.

If you theme has a custom css area, you can put it in there

Otherwise you can look for a css plugin and add that

or you could install and activate my style pack plugin

bbp style pack

and go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>custom css and put the code in there

Hello,

I think I have a problem with the reply count.
It shows only 2 replies but there are more inside the topic.
Here is the link to the topic:

Zeigt uns eure Whiskybar

Do you know how to solve this problem?

I´m using:
Wordpress Version 4.7.5
bbPress Version 2.6-alpha
Theme: X Theme by Themeco
Here is my forum page: http://www.whiskytasters.de/forum/

Thank you very much for your help!

Kind regards,

I did switch on debugging… but it doesn’t throw an error. And I disabled all and selected a different theme… same problem.

I’ve even re-installed wordpress (through the dashboard) but it didn’t fix the problem… Thanks for digging in and offering help. I’ll keep searching.

Sorry for my English!

I’m trying to migrate PHPBB 3.1.10 to BBPress, but to no avail. Always the same mistake. I would like your help if possible.

Erro no banco de dados do WordPress: [Table ‘falco785_phpb1.phpbb_user’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT convert(user.uid USING “utf8mb4”) AS uid,convert(user.password USING “utf8mb4”) AS password,convert(user.username USING “utf8mb4”) AS username,convert(user.email USING “utf8mb4”) AS email,convert(user.regdate USING “utf8mb4”) AS regdate,convert(user.realname USING “utf8mb4”) AS realname FROM phpbb_user AS user LIMIT 0, 100

Thank you,

When I try to view the index of forums, it looks good on a computer but it is not seen when I open it on a smartphone.

It appears the Foros word (forums), and no more.

I have WordPress 4.7.5 and Twenty Fourteen theme.

[carlosburgos]

OK, Robin, thanks for your help.

Two plugins were generating the conflict:

1. Filtro de Traducción Transposh
Translation filter for WordPress, After enabling please set languages at the the options page Want to help? visit our development site at trac.transposh.org.
Versión 0.9.6 | Por Equipo Transposh

2. W3 Total Cache
The highest rated and most complete WordPress performance plugin. Dramatically improve the speed and user experience of your site. Add browser, page, object and database caching as well as minify and content delivery network (CDN) to WordPress.
Versión 0.9.5.4 | Por Frederick Townes

Now all is OK. But maybe it helps to know these two plugins to create some kind of solution.

Regards 🙏

[Robin W]

ok, not sure I can help further – think it is a wordpress/database issue.

Last 2 throws of the dice

1. is debug switched on, and if not turn it on to see what errors are appearing. if you need instructions for that – come back

2. try changing theme to a default one like twentyseventeen, then deactivate and see if that does anything. if that works you could switch back to your normal theme once bbpress is gone.

[Robin W]

ok, suspect that the database has an issue

two thoughts

1.do you have other plugins that are bbpress related? If so deactivate these first
2. Use FPT and go into

wp-content/plugins and rename the bbpress directory to something such as bbpressold

wordpress should then recognise it as gone.

Hello, in the WordPress admin panel, when I push in Replies, it returns me the blank screen with the message “Internal Server Error”.

I can enter in Forums and Topics, but not in Replies.

Could you help me?

Problem: the private forum entry header / title is displaying this content instead of the title:

<span class=”screen-reader-text”>Private article:</span>Title‘

I use the Members plugin for content restriction. Roles are set up for access to some forums but not others. e.g. beginners should not see instructor forum content or topics.

This works with pages and posts, but forums and topics are displayed even when content is restricted for a given user level or role.

With that not working, I then made the forum private. Now, the forum still displays in the forum list even when content is restricted for a given user level but now shows 0 topics. On displaying private forum posts, the same html span tag precedes the title.

This is happening whether users have access to restricted content or not. Although content is finally restricted correctly at the topic level.

WordPress Version: 4.7.5
bbPress Version: 2.5.12

bbp style pack lets you create buttons, change freshness styling, and put titles under posts

Heya!

I have a few questions about bbpress, i’m new to it and would like to learn a thing or two aswell!

– Currently when in a Forum, you have this gigantic “Create new topic” box at the bottom of the page. Can i remove this and instead create a button that (on another page) displays the create new topic customizer?

– Currently at the Freshness it only shows the username, but not the topic it has created (name), where can i add this, if possible?

– Currently the message edit is quite basic, you can put your text in italics, bold and other stuff. Is there an option to also enable underlining, font size, font group and text color?

– I’d like to have a ranking system, not based on the amount of posts, but ranks in general, that shows under your name, like Owner, Admin, Moderator, Member and Guest. Is this possible?

Kind regards!
Legend

[Robin W]

ok think you need to do some testing.

suggest you start by seeing if the issue only occurs with bbpress login widget, or with a standard worpdress login – they are effectively the same as bbpress merely uses a wordpress login, so you shopukld see the error with both, but worth checking

if both create the issue, then follow the instructions in the https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/before-posting/ thread on troubleshooting and then come back

It’s 100% done:

This is very old thread, but I just want to clarify something, as this keeps showing up in Google searches for this topic.

Technically WordPress could work out the post-type; it already does this in the case of posts and pages using the same URL structure. It is however faster if it knows the post-type in advance, hence bbPress prefers to use those slugs by default.

There is also a secondary problem, which is probably why there isn’t even a common hack to work around this problem, in that if you allow people to create topics and replies at the root level, there could easily be clashes between slugs. This isn’t such a big problem with posts and pages, as usually it’s only the blog admin/editor creating the posts, but in the case of a forum it would be very easy for a member of the public to inadvertently create a clashing slug. You could also ensure that forum posts didn’t clash with existing content in other post-types, but forum users could use page slugs which the admins may want to use for other posts in future. Basically, things get messy.

Having said all that, this should in theory be possible I think (I haven’t tried to figure out how yet, I’m just searching around to find an existing solution), there would just be a few potential drawbacks. If anyone knows how to do this, please post the solution for the rest of us to see 🙂

I’ve noticed recently that when users login to the website, they are getting an error message.

ERROR: The password you entered for the username xxxxxx is incorrect.

But if you enter your information a second time into the login fields and submit, the login works fine. I can’t seem to figure out why the initial login fails, but the second attempt works. The login area is using the (bbPress) Login Widget. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this is happening and how I can fix it?

I’m running bbPress Version 2.5.12, WordPress Version 4.7.5.

as per the other thread which has how to remove, or use my style pack plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

[wci]

Hi support team,

I was trying to use your translatetion instructions but unfortunately it has not worked on my case.

1. I downloaded files mo./po. (Go to https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress)
2. renamed them accordingly “bbpress-de_DE”
3. uploaded to my server folder “wp-content/languages/buddypress”

But still are not working. Any ideas?

Looking forward to your help.

[Robin W]

simplest way is to install my style pack

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

navigate to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>breadcrumbs

disable breadcrumb home, breadcrumb Root, and breadcrumb current

This just leaves the ‘previous’ showing

then put this into the custom css tab of my plugin

.bbp-breadcrumb-forum::before {

content: "Back to ";

}

The breadcrumb will then become ‘back to xx’ with xx being whatever they came from

[forums1234]

Wordpress 4.7.5
bbpress 2.5.12

Out of respect to your time, I took a week to write this as carefully and succinctly as possible.

Is there a way to replace the breadcrumbs menu with a “Previous Viewed Page” option (it could be called anything, like “Back”)? That way, instead of members navigating around inside the forum, they would return from a topic to the web page that hosts the forum, e.g, far more advertising revenue possibilities.

As it works now:
Step one: https://sterlingforums.com/white-glove-service-forum/

Step two: Select a topic

Step three: navigate to /forums/forum/white-glove-forum/

Step four: select another topic from inside /forums/forum/white-glove-forum/

As it would work:
Step one: Select topic from inside .com/white-glove-service-forum/

Step two: Select the “Previous Page” from inside /forums/forum/white-glove-forum/all-about-our-cover-art/

Step three: Return to .com/white-glove-service-forum/

I didn’t want to leave 6 links! Finger’s Crossed! And, thank you.

[Robin W]

I’d suggest you use my private groups plugin to restrict access to the forums, and Pascal’s toolkit to auto subscribe users to the forums

After making an import of data from phpBB 3.2 to bbPress 2.6beta2,
impossible to connect one of the users formerly present in phpBB.
