I’m using the latest WordPress and installed the latest BBpress.

Installed fine but can the life of me work out what is the URL link to access BBpress within WordPress as a user. http://www.domain.com/forums ?

Very simple question why is this not mentioned in the installation notes.

Hello, due to GDPR I need to know if BBpress sends any data to thrid party or wordpress. Thanks

ok so the issue is your theme is not showing the sidebar on mobiles, not that bbpress is doing anything wrong.

I’d suggest you add login and logout to your menu

either

or

install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>login

My website sidebar can only be seen in desktop only and doesn’t show at all on mobile phones.

This is the issue because bbPress login widget is on my sidebar only.
So, I’m confused that from where mobile users can login and logout?

[Robin W]

It is not a bbpress issue (bbpress does not prevent whole sidebars showing) but come back and I’ll see if I can help further.

so that sidebar doesn’t show at all to the mobile, or doesn’t show to logged in users?

[ritishsharma]

Thankyou for you reply. I’ve checked and everything is working perfectly fine.
I just want to know that I used bbPress login form widget in my sidebar. Now a login form with links to registration and lost password recovery pages is appearing in my sidebar. Logged in users would see their usernames and a logout link instead of the form.

But problem is that sidebar doesn’t show on mobile phones. So, how are users supposed to logout once they create an account?

Or, maybe I’m unable to find it, cause I’m new in this.
Will you please tell me where to find login and logout option in mobile version?

Thankyou

[Robin W]

hmmm…

Titles are not put in that part as default – bbpress uses the theme/page to do that, so I would not expect to see an <h2> tag after the <div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">

do you have a theme or plugin that is altering bbpress display?

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

it shows fine in my test site

it could be a theme or plugin issue

I wish I could but the way that bbPress has implemented the CSS there is no middle.

Please review the screenshots I took

Index page with forum title
https://monosnap.com/file/tKb4Y6GEkWf2GUMB88ghljeprh37Nt

Topic page with topic question
https://monosnap.com/file/M3hhJhX7wW4on9Ym2s4ecMcFqmjHOj

This is the code that bbPress outputs for both the index page and topic page title

<div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">
<h2>main forum topipc</h2>

If I get rid of one I get rid of the other one 🙁

Still searching for a solution.

I’ve just installed bbPress plugin to create a General discussion page.
The thing is, first users will register themselves by creating an account on the forum page. But how they are supposed to Logout from the page in the mobile version?
I’ve already put a login widget on the sidebar, in which I can see the logout option (in desktop) when users are already logged in. But I can’t see the same on mobile, because most of the users use mobile.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you

write the css selector #bbpress-forums ???? h2 more precisely – there will be a difference

[neon67]

in the menu (after installing bbpress) Nothing will appear – you must create and customize the menu yourself.
Or use bbpress shortcodes for home page.

Hi,

I found that when BbPress is activated wp-login.php redirect me to homepage but I am logged in. It does let me in but not straight to the wp-admin dashboard page, I do have to click to go to the admin page even tough I am logged in. How do I fix that?

Thanks in advance,

Kindly,

[Dominique D. Wilson]

Thanks, my site is live, but I took a chance since I didn’t understand what you meant about troubleshooting.

I deactivated the All-In-One SEO plugin and then bbPress. Then I reactivated bbPress and it worked. I hope that reactivating AIOSEO will not cause any issues.

Thanks for your help!

Hi, I installed bbPress and activated the plugin, but nothing happens when I do. There are no new menu items on my WordPress dashboard, there are no bbPress options in the “settings” area. However, if I go to mysite.com/forums, I can see that a page was created.

I have no way to customize the plugin because there is no access to any settings.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

[Robin W]

a combination of

bbp style pack

and

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

transfer this to your pc and edit as required

and save

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

will get you there, but if you want specific help, contact me via http://www.rewweb.co.uk/contact-me/ and reference this post

Hi there,

I would like to know if I am able to edit my topic page part of the bbpress forum. There are some things I would like to remove off the page completely and other things I would like to make smaller or move around the screen. I will attach a list of everything I would like to do (in an ideal world!) and I hope someone can get back to me to advise me how/if I can do this.

1) I would like to make the size of the Author icon and their name smaller.

2)I would like to completely remove the text which says “This topic has (1)voice and (1) reply…” (the part at the top of the page with the lightbulb in it)

3)Remove the reply IDs off the reply (the number with a hashtag e.g, #5431)

4) Add an icon that shows how many replies there are to a comment which the user can click on to view said replies. Rather than showing the reply under the main comment.

5)move the ‘make a post’ section to the top.

Following on from the number 5 request, about the “make the post” section, is it possible to remove the “make a post” section from the page completely and then add in a button at the top of the page which can be clicked on and then the “make a post” section is displayed in a pop-up? If that is possible then that would be great and better suited to my needs.

I have some ‘mock-up’ images of what I would like it to look like. If you would like to see them for further guidance, I can provide them to you over email.

Lastly, I appreciate this customization may not be free work, so I am willing to pay if this is a requirement.

Thank you.

ok that doesn’t look like a bbpress standard template displaying the forums, so must be a theme or plugin doing that ?

[aislinnlc]

After setting up bbPress I had an issue with one of the user Gravatars displaying for all questions despite not being a participant, but I gave up trying to figure out what the issue is. But the Gravatars have now stopped displaying completely.

The home page is set to the bbPress – Topics (Newest) page and the forum can be found here: https://www.esim.net/forums/

The next best thing is to remove the Gravatars entirely, but I’d rather keep them, so any help would be highly appreciated!
