I’m having a style problem with this as well. The forumhome only is taking 1/3 of the space counting sidebar, 1/2 the space it should. I tried editing the css but no luck. Any idea what class or id I should be editing?

All other pages are the proper width, just now the forum home. Thoughts? thanks!
‘Allo. I currently have an issue. I have a separate CSS document for each one of my pages. For my forum, I am using style-forum.css and it worked just fine. Then, I installed bbPress and reloaded my forum page. It seems to be pulling its styles from style.css rather than the aforementioned CSS document. I know I did it correctly because it was working just fine before I added bbPress as a plugin. But just to make sure, I deactivated bbPress and, sure enough, it began reading from style-forum.css again. How do I use bbPress with the correct CSS document? Thank you in advance!
Today when i tested my websites for flaws i saw that the visual editor box text color had changed into white instead of black. This made the text invisible unless you highlighted the written text.
When i did some research on how to change it i saw that this problem goes back years.
Most forum threads didn’t even got solved.
I have found a simple solution for this problem.
When i checked my source code i saw that the visual editor .css was located in public-html/wp-includes/css/editor.min.css
Call it a lucky guess but when i searched for ‘white’ it got me to this part of the code:
wp-editor-area{color:black}
I changed it into wp-editor-area{color:white} and this solved my problem.
I hope this helps allot of frustrated people!.
I found he solution for the white text in visual editor problem when using BBpress.
Go to your ftp and open public-html/wp-includes/css/editor.min.css ( I found it viewing my site’s source code)
You will see a whole bunch of code making it almost impossible to find the right part to change.
Call it a lucky guess but when i searched the word ‘white’ i only found 1 code:
-wp-editor-area{color:white}
I changed it into black and this solved the white text problem!
so just search for wp-editor-area{color:white} and change it into:
-wp-editor-area{color:black}
You can hide it with CSS. Try adding the following code to your theme’s style.css file.
`.bbp-template-notice.info {
visibility: hidden;
height: 0px;
}`
Hey bbPress.
I need help to remove these – marked on picture.

I found “bbp-forums-list” inside teh bbPress plugin’s css and made the display to none instead of incline. It really didn’t help much.
Can you help me?
Or you can go through all of the theme files and remove get_sidebar.
and
The best way to remove a sidebar is probably to just use CSS to .sidebar { display:none }
Will that remove the sidebar from the entire blog? I only want to remove the sidebar from the forum page, not the other pages…
So I believe I’ve figured out a really simple solution to this all. My particular issue with the plugin in question in this thread is simply that it relies on users clicking a link to mark a post as read, which isn’t all that intuitive in my humblest of opinions.
Using a built in BBPress function `echo bbp_get_topic_last_reply_url( $topic_id );` and some CSS, we can easily style unread threads.
`echo bbp_get_topic_last_reply_url( $topic_id );` links to the latest reply in a given thread. So something like myforum.com/forum/topic/post-name/page/10/#postid-12345
When a new reply is created, that last bit there becomes #postid-12346 and is therefore a new URL, so browsers will treat it as an unvisited link. Therefor, doing something like this gets the job done:
`a:visited {color:red;}`
For anyone who’d like more detail, I’ve written a complete post on exactly how to do this: http://clicknathan.com/web-design/bbpress-read-topic/
It only involves changing one BBPress template file in your theme & adding a single line of code to your style.css file.
Hi!
I just updated to bbpress 2.2.3 I have buddypress using bbpress sitewide forums. Using current wordpress version with buddypress default theme and my own custom made child theme.
Updating caused some style problems. I think I had edited some css and forgotten that I did. So I discovered I should copy bbpress.css into my theme. I have done this and have gotten rid of the awful bullets by setting #bbpress-forums to list-style:none.
I need to align LI.bbp-topic-freshness to the right to get rid of a large margin being caused by it aligning center. I told it to align right and it didn’t cooperate! What should I try now????
The site is http://rheum4us.org however the forum is private using the membership plugin.
Thanks for any help!
I had the same problem, i resoved it by adding this code in the style.css of my twenty eleven child theme
.forum #primary{
width:70%;
}
.forum .entry-content{
width:100%;
}
And then also:
.topic #primary{
width:70%;
}
.topic .entry-content{
width:100%;
}
And finaly,
.bbp-user-page #primary{
width:70%;
}
.bbp-user-page .entry-content{
width:100%;
}
That solved my problem. I run WP 3.5. and bbpress 2.2. Hope this helps.
I also figured out how to change the page title and remove some space at the top. Let me knof if you are interrested.
So,, there’s no plan so far.. thanks for letting me know. 🙂
I just decided to follow your advice and adjusted CSS to the img tags in the activity stream contents.
Thank you for the fast reply!
No plans, but could be done. Since the BuddyPress activity streams contain full HTML in each item, it’s a bit of a mess to change the visual layout. You could use some targeted CSS to improve it, but until we move to having callbacks for the items, it’s pretty limited what customizations you can do.
I cannot for the life of me figure out what CSS code is causing the text to be grey on the body section of a new forum post.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hey all,
I thought I would have a go at creating a quick and easy theme for people to get started using bbPress. This was built fairly quickly using one of my other themes (which are based off the default bbPress files).
If you want to check it out then have a look at: http://www.epicwebs.co.uk/content/bbpress-theme-invision-or-phpbb-feel or check it out on github https://github.com/EpicWebs/bbPress-starter-theme-epicwebs.
The theme allows you to get more of a phpBB or invision look to your forum. It uses the functions I posted previously on bbPress.org along with some css to get the forum looking nice by installing the theme. The forum should be pretty fluid so it will fit any width of site.
Good luck, I hope this helps!
How was this passed? just through the bbpress css or?
Yes… An entry in CSS for each forum
Sounds cool Darren.. definitely looking forward to see what it looks like.
And Stephen, I’m guessing you have to manually create a CSS class for each forum?
You could use…
.bbp-content .entry-title { display: none; }
in your css file.
Sounds great Darren would love to see it, feel free to Pimp your site here.
A plugin would be cool and like Jared there is much on my plate at the moment.
Similar to Martin’s method above I have been using a custom icon font and targeting each forum like so with CSS where in this case the forum id is 34.
.bbp-forum-34 i:before {
content: "\e112"; /* glyphicons_ */
}
I tried to use div.forums-topic-datetime with display: none; but i can’t get it to work. Can you please post the whole code? I’m fairly new to CSS.
Regarding the PHP filers…I’m not sure how to do this either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Can you get more specific with your CSS? By that, I mean just targeting the date instead of the whole freshness block. For example, I see on my bbPress installation that the date in the forum freshness is in a child div of li.bbp-forum-freshness, which in CSS would be div.forums-topic-datetime.
If you are more comfortable with PHP and WordPress development the forum and topic freshness links do have filters:
bbp_get_forum_freshness_link
bbp_get_topic_freshness_link
Both filters pass the link html and the forum/topic id to your callback function. You could then hook to these filters, and simply have your filter callback return an empty string.
Hi everyone,
I want to remove the last post date from my bbpress forum and topic pages:
I want only this to show up:
Freshness
[AVATAR IMAGE] Username
Basically i want to get rid of the date. I tried using CSS with this code:
li.bbp-forum-freshness a,
li.bbp-topic-freshness a{
display: none;
}
But it hides both the date and the username.
So, how can i hide only the date and leave the username?
Please help.
Hmm, tried overflow:auto on .bbp-user-section, but it didn’t work. The stuff I posted above worked for me at AppGlobe:
Try it with firefox here:
http://appglobe.com/forums/users/martin/topics/
…I think I’ve added a width of 100% as well as W3c suggests.
Thats strange, I checked out your profile topics page in firebug and added a float left at this section:
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic, #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topics, #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-forums, #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies {
border: 1px solid #EEEEEE;
clear: both;
float: left; // Added this
font-size: 12px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
overflow: hidden;
}
and when I did so it got visible.
Try this instead at the bottom of your style.css:
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topics { float: left !important; }
