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

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.

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!

[Robin W]

That’s not bbpress – must be something related to whatever membership plugin you are using

[enorth]

I’m not sure if this is a function of bbPress, of the theme I’m using, or of something else, but here’s the issue: A user can add an image (or several) to a post made on a desktop by clicking “Add Media,” uploading the file, choosing the file, and telling it to insert the image into the topic or reply. Great.

However, if on a mobile, that doesn’t work. The user can click “Add Media,” choose a file to upload, and watch as it appears to upload. But they “Insert” button remains grey and doesn’t function. The user can also choose a file from their already uploaded media with the same result; the “insert” button doesn’t work.

Am I missing a setting?

[neon67]

Thanks Robin for the answer! It works like a charm!

Complete Recipe for the Community – now there is everything to fine-tune the experiment – to open the reception of anonymous messages.
This topic☝️ and this topic 👉🏻 https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/remove-e-mail-field-from-form-anonymous/ will help you.

You will also need a moderation tool, since spam will immediately as cornucopia.
Dont to dig into a heap of spam for catching valuable messages: push Google captcha. It’s all!

PS – I don’t understand why Google captcha will not be put on this forum? There would be less spam))

[Robin W]

what do you mean by ‘member dierctory’ ?

bbpress has a ‘profile’ but that does not show email addresses to other users (except admins can see)

[Robin W]

From your description that sounds like what bbpress does 🙂

Can you explain further ?

[Robin W]

if it didn’t work in style pack there are 3 reasons

code error so does not work
wrong element targeted
something else is overwriting

1st looks ok
second could be the issue

so let’s try 3rd to check, so add this

#bbpress-forums #bbp-user-wrapper h2.entry-title {display: none !important;}

[Robin W]

These fields are in a bbpress template so you need to amend that

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-anonymous.php

transfer this to your pc and edit

remove

<p>
<label for=”bbp_anonymous_website”><?php esc_html_e( ‘Website:’, ‘bbpress’ ); ?></label><br />
<input type=”text” id=”bbp_anonymous_website” value=”<?php bbp_author_url(); ?>” size=”40″ maxlength=”200″ name=”bbp_anonymous_website” />
</p>

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/form-anonymous.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

[Robin W]

I think this plugin should fix bbPress and the Hello Elementor theme issues – but feedback would be appreciated

I am trying to remove the name of the forum on the index page that lists all the topics. I used CSS to remove it but it’s not working right.

#bbpress-forums h2 {
display: none;
}

This removes the title as I want but when I click on any topic it also removes the posters question 🙁

Does anybody know how to remove just the forum name?
