How can I disable my theme’s css from being applied to the forum? It’s not meant for this and it makes it messed up and unreadable.

I would like to remove ‘You may use these HTML tags and attributes:…’

I am using the Thematic Theme 1.0.2.1
and bbPress plugin 2.2.4

I put this code in my themes style.css file:

.form-allowed-tags{
display:none;
}

This removed ‘Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML’ when I am logged in as admin.

Everything I have found in forums about removing ‘You may use these HTML tags and attributes:…’ refer to the Twenty Ten theme, and files and code I can’t find.

Thank You

It’s exactly how the title puts it. It’s just a blank page with the text “viewing 5 topics – 1 of 5”. I’ve searched it up and one solution was to change line 815 in bbpress.css to “clear: both;” instead of “clear: none;”. It wasn’t line 815 but 818, but it was still near so I knew which one. I tried it, and the topics showed, but they were shifted down the page quite a lot, and there was a lot of blank space between the “viewing 5 topics – 1 of 5” and the topics list. Is there any way I can solve this? Direct link to problem is here.

You can use the following three filters:

bbp_get_forum_class
bbp_get_topic_class
bbp_get_reply_class

Each of them function exactly like the core WordPress post_class filter: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/post_class

Just for info, I’ve just tried the CSS fix and it worked fine. I’m using the suffusion theme and added it via the custom includes. Many thanks!

@supernaturalbrews Re full-width BuddyPress pages: I see that you’re already using BP 1.7 beta 1, good for you! Make a copy of page-no-sidebar.php file from parent theme and Save As buddypress.php in your child theme folder.

To remove the vertical dotted line in the midst of full-width BP and bbP pages, add the following to your child theme’s style.css file:

body.BuddyPress #posts,
body.bbPress #posts {
background: transparent none;
}

@mercime anything related to bbpress I would like to have full width without sidebar.

I’m using triton lite.

I put the above code into the child theme css and it got rid of the sidebar but its not full width.

Here is the link to the forums:
http://www.kcnanobrews.com/forums/

[SupernaturalBrews]

I created a child theme and added it to the style.css. But it won’t make the forums full width. I don’t know why it’s so hard to find a solution to this. Everyone seems to have the same problem.

Where did you add the css code? I mean which css file? Do i have to add this code in my theme css file?

[SupernaturalBrews]

I would like to make my forums full size. Anyone know how to do that?

I managed to get rid of my forum sidebar with the following css code:

body.bbPress #sidebar {display:none;}
.bbp-forums, .bbp-forums td, .bbp-forums th {

text-align: left;

width: 100%;

}

.bbPress .inner-content {

margin: 0;

width: 960px;

}

Depending on where they are you will want to remove them with CSS something like…

#bbpress-forums li { list-style-type:none; }

I tried your the in buddypress but i get the following error

The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.

I just set up a test site with WP 3.5.1, then added bbPress 2.2.4 and then added BuddyPress 1.6.4. I’m using site wide forums.

Plugins:
Alismet (not activated)
bbPress
BuddyPress
Custom CSS Manager
Hello Dolly (not activared)
PlugNedit (not activated)

Since this is new I don’t mind removing plugins (including bbPress and BuddyPress) and resinstalling. I don’t care about Custom CSS Manager, so it can go if needed.

I did notice that the directories “forums”, “forums/forum” and “forums/topic” were not created.

Could it have been the order in which I installed bbPress and BuddyPress?

Mormally I’d start from scratch, but after spending the last two weeks upgrading forums, etc software on multiple sites and then doing a server upgrade in order to run WP I’m a bit tired of looking at my computer 🙂

Thanks in advance!

The website has a heading 1 for the page title and breadcrumbs. Both the page heading and the breadcrumbs think that any page within the bbpress forums is within the “blog” section. So the heading 1 says “blog” and the breadcrumbs say home > blog > topic name

Note: the breadcrumbs that come with bbpress work fine.

The site is located here: http://healthmeditating.com/forums/topic/how-do-i-meditate/
Running WordPress 3.5.1.
Running bbpress 2.2.4
Using theme Sterling from themeforest -http://themeforest.net/item/sterling-responsive-wordpress-theme/2320578

One other problem that may be related is that wordpress also triggers the Blog menu item link as the current_menu_item (thus highlighting it in the main menu). I can override this with css so I am not overly worried about it but thought it worth mentioning. I notice that this problem is actually a reported bug in bbpress and is being worked on.

Thanks in advance to anyone who as any ideas,

I’m curious as well — I tried the CSS trick but still a lot of stuff grayed out. Locking a sticky is a common thing for many forums.

Sorry for the ambiguous title. I have bbpress on a site, using the compatibility theme. The rest of the forums have always worked correctly and apart from a few css tweaks, have always looked good and matched the theme.

I recently noticed however, that the User Profile pages; profile, topics created, favourites etc, seem to ignore all the css and consequently have no layout/structure.

Here is a normal forum page on the site… Forums
The layout is correct, the sidebar is positioned correctly and has a PNG background creating the ‘shadow’. A title bar with page title is displayed below the header and navigation.

Here is an example of a User Profile page… Topics Started
There’s no css structure, the sidebar is at the bottom, there’s no PNG background behind the sidebar, theres no title bar and page title. It’s as if the CSS is being ignored.

As another example, on this page I have added the code below to user-profile.php and the sidebar is correct, but it still has no background PNG, title bar etc… User Profile

Any idea whats going on?

`
#sidebar { float: left; width: 230px !important; }
#main { float: left; width: 730px !important; }
`

You could just create a topic and write your course/page out in the topic rather than a page. This way you can pick out the course/page with CSS and style it the same as a standard page, then underneath there would be the discussion forum.

Good luck!

You could add some media queries to your CSS and use something like:

`
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-body div.bbp-reply-author img.avatar {
width: 20px;
height: auto;
`

@ Zilveer,
Thanks for this info. Very concise and direct. I am actually ok with the type of font (Trebuchet MS), but the coloring is bad for me.

Can I change the font colors for just the BBpress forum under the bbpress.css? Or will I need to edit some code in the style.css?

Thanks for the fast response.

Love this community!

[zilveer]

@pantheism: you need to go to your file located at:

http://pantheismnow.org/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css/bbpress.css?ver=2.2.4

And after that change the line 28:

background-color: #FBFBFB;

to whatever you want for the background color.

Have you worked with CSS before?

You can change the font family at line 14 located in the file:
http://pantheismnow.org/wp-content/themes/autumn-almanac/style.css

You are using “Trebuchet MS” for the moment.

[Pantheism]

Can anyone advise me on the CSS I would use to remove the sidebars from my BBpress forum. It is pulling the sidebars from my theme, and I would like them removed.

Here is my forum URL…
http://pantheismnow.org/forums/

I wuold also like to make the width 100% too. Any chance I can get that code too?

Thanks everyone.

[Stephen Edgar]

I just deleted your 6 replies hijacking other peoples topics, please don’t do that.

The problem with your site is your theme specifying only 580px width.

A simple solution to this issue can be achieved by css the following way.

On each bbPress related page, bbPress plugin adds a class ‘bbPress’ to the body html element, so adding something like below would solve the problem in a non-obtrusive way.

body.bbPress #nav > li.menu-item-318 > a { formatting for the highlighted menu item class }

Where, menu-item-318 is the id of the page which should have been highlighted by the current_page_parent or current_menu_item class, which are not attached (for which this ticket is for).

Of course, this is just a hack, but it does get the work done.

Thanks for that.. I guess i will worry about that later then and worry about the rest of my site design.

Any idea when 2.3 will be released ? just wondering as ive just started messing around with some BBpress templates and CSS so if the next release is near then i might just hold off on adding the forums for now.

Thanks for your help.
