Take rest with CSS. Dont know how it looks.
Small warning. If your forum is not visited well it could look amateurish. You will have post after post, after post, avatar of one and same User/Topic author.
Same situation is if you use automatic bbPress topic from WordPress Posts.
Making bigger avatars can make things worse if you dont have many Users. For instance another tweak “last commenter avatar”. I tried all this, and if you have just one User who like to comments more than other Users, it looks boring to see enlarged avatar of this User on whole screen everywhere.
I mean easier to take it if avatar is few pixels big.
@andrew55
I’m still hungup on getting the overflow figured out.
link to your site and i could help with that.
It appears they have the avatar somehow wrapped in a span, and the span has the overflow assigned to it.
i dont think you need a span for it , i could add it into the code but im sure it will be fine with just a float:left;
@stagger-lee
what is that ? Is that bbPress forum ?
that was not a bbPress forum, its something else.
@lanhuong11022, what is that ? Is that bbPress forum ?
Thank you robkk and lanhuong11022. I’m new to bbPress and appreciate the help getting started. The theme files are completely new to me, so it’s been fun trying to figure out everything.
I was able to get the avatar larger. I’m still hungup on getting the overflow figured out.
http://camaushop.net/ is a great start. It appears they have the avatar somehow wrapped in a span, and the span has the overflow assigned to it.
I’m not asking anyone to hold my hand, but if I was to attempt to add a span around those forum icons, any suggestions on what theme file I might start experimenting with?
Thanks for any suggestions.
You can use same function for bbPress part, I believe. It is up to you where do you want to adapt it.
Or maybe “is_user_logged_in()”:

Thanks to JJJ’s excellent plugin, I can now do what the basic bbPress said it would do, so that ‘spectators’ can read but not post to private forums. However, is there any way that I can set this as the default option, so that I don’t have to carefully edit the permission on every single user who subscribes?
Thanks
Alan
thanks, the forum is not centralized when i use #bbpress-forums to widen the forum.how to centralize it?
i think that is loop-single-reply.php
copy that into your child theme in a folder called bbPress before you make any changes to it.
Move all this to another topic, to not ruin this.
members-loop-php (BuddyPress)
member-header.php (BuddyPress)
Cannot make links clickable. Great advertising for bbPress forum script.
functions.php:
/**
* webdeveloperswall.com/buddypress/check-if-a-user-is-online
**/
function is_user_online($user_id, $time=5){
global $wp, $wpdb;
$user_login = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "
SELECT u.user_login FROM $wpdb->users u JOIN $wpdb->usermeta um ON um.user_id = u.ID
WHERE u.ID = $user_id
AND um.meta_key = 'last_activity'
AND DATE_ADD( um.meta_value, INTERVAL $time MINUTE ) >= UTC_TIMESTAMP()
" ,APP_POST_TYPE
));
if(isset($user_login) && $user_login !=""){
return true;
}
else {return false;}
}
pastebin.com/hEfRfKGe
members-loop-php (BuddyPress)
pastebin.com/9AyQJHBe
member-header.php (BuddyPress)
Probably the same process for bbPress alone. Cannot ruin now all to test it.
Font Awesome needs to be activated for frontend. Or more easy, activate Dashicons for frontend and use some other SVG icon.
Some CSS:
.bp-user #buddypress .online .fa-wifi {
color:green;
font-size:22px;
}
.bp-user #buddypress .offline .fa-wifi {
color:#cf4d35;
font-size:22px;
}
.bp-user #buddypress .online,
.bp-user #buddypress .offline {display:inline-block; text-align:right;float:right;}
.members #buddypress .online-list .fa-wifi {color:green; font-size:15px;}
.members #buddypress .offline-list .fa-wifi {color:#cf4d35; font-size:15px;}
#buddypress .online-list,
#buddypress .offline-list,
#buddypress .offline,
#buddypress .online {font-size:12px;}
Thanks Robkk, this is very good advice.
I hope WP Ulike will support BBpress soon , though.
Thanks for the replies gentlemen. It was a simple thing. In the bbPress WP Tweaks plugin, I needed to select one of the other available pages.
For anyone else with the problem: Dashboard>Settings>bbPress WP Tweaks. The bottom 3 were bold and, therefore, available for my site. Selecting page.php did the trick.
Select template file that you prefer bbPress rendered in. Make sure template file is present in your theme directory. If sidebar is not displaying make sure you put some wodgets to “bbPress sidebar” in widgets page then try different forum wrapper from this list.
plugin-bbpress.php
bbpress.php
forums.php
forum.php
generic.php
page.php
single.php
index.php
Files with Bold text exist.
1,i have several problems atm i am using bbpress and buddypress one i have a random yellow block on my forum page
http://lexmotoownersclub.com/forums/
2, my topics show up under all parents ie lexmoto adrenaline show stay under lexmoto adrenaline and not show up under all category
3, This forum contains 1 topic, and was last updated by Profile photo of ADMINB ADMINB 1 day, 16 hours ago. want this removed
i have tried changing themes and also pluging im no good at messing around in code noobie here
thanks 🙂
Just after posting the above message, I decided to give it one more try and added width property to the bbpress.css file under #bbpress-forums . And voilà, it is showing properly now. Although I have no idea why it is ignoring the same one in style.css.
you can use this PHP function
function rkk_topic_av() {
echo bbp_get_topic_author_link( array( 'size' => '32' , 'type' => 'avatar'));
}
add_action('bbp_theme_before_topic_title','rkk_topic_av');
here is some custom CSS you can use.
li.bbp-topic-title .avatar-32 {
margin-right: 5px;
}
then to remove the small one you can copy loop-single-topic.php into your child theme into a folder called bbpress.
look for
<span class="bbp-topic-started-by"><?php printf( __( 'Started by: %1$s', 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_topic_author_link( array( 'sie' => '14' ) ) ); ?></span>
change it to.
<span class="bbp-topic-started-by"><?php printf( __( 'Started by: %1$s', 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_topic_author_link( array( 'type' => 'name' ) ) ); ?></span>
Nice plugin. I did it manually in bbPress profile screen and BuddyPress screen, with SVG Wifi colored icons. Not easy to explain how, different files involved.
But for topic user info could not manage it. Different queries.
Just checked. Ignore User plugin works well even 3 years old:

Hi,
I have bbpress installed on a multisite (network activated) but for some reason the CSS and JS is not being linked to properly. When looking for them the site is looking in http://roobla.com/var/sites/etc/etc/etc/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/js/editor.js and /css/bbpress.css.
You can visit any page on my website (roobla.com) to see the JS like this in practice. I had to deregister and reregister the CSS but I’d prefer to not have to.
The network’s primary domain is cultiplex.com and Roobla is a subdomain.
Can anyone shed any light on what could be causing this, please?
Thank you for your help,
Sam
I did end up creating a local test environment to find that solution
Having a test environment is something that every site should have !!
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
this should be a direct path to the activity.php file that you would need to edit
/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/activity.php
follow all the comments in here https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2690
and you should see dans fix for the patch to make it work.
Should anyone ever come across this with the same problem I was having, it was the Google Adsense for Responsive Design – GARD by The Plugin Factory, The Digital Hippies plugin that was causing the conflict with bbpress. Once I deactivated the plugin, all of the menu options and functionality were there.
Thanks Robin for the help. I did end up creating a local test environment to find that solution.
Not one I’ve heard of.
I can’t find the word ‘unable’ in this context within bbpress at all – can you get your user to get the EXACT wording including capitals, spaces and punctuation, so that I can track whereabouts in the code it appears.
Also what plugins are you running that could have this in them?
Thanks for the suggestion. I decided to install a separate version of WP and install forums in there – my original WordPress database got huge with bbPress.
I then imported phhBB into this site. Next I will connect this site to aMember, although I’m not sure how that will go. Wish me luck!
I am running WP at version 4.1.1 and bbpress at 2.5.6. I have one participant in the forum who continually gets an error message when he tries to submit a reply “Error: Unable to reply right now”
Other participants are not having the problem and I haven’t been able to recreate it.
My site is http://www.93regimentalcan.com
