Thank you for your support,
Sorry my bad, we have 4 main forum pages that should be displayed in the main page here “https://www.eyecadvr.com/home-community/”.
The issue actually is only in the first page of 4, because as you can see here:
1) eyecadvr.com/home-community/eyecad-vr-help-official-docs-about-every-software-release/
2) eyecadvr.com/home-community/general-discussion-eyecad-vr-general-topics-help-requests-cg-tips-and-tricks-everything-you-could-have-in-mind/
3) eyecadvr.com/home-community/news-and-bug-fix-development-log-files-useful-previews-about-stable-and-beta-releases-bug-reports/
4) eyecadvr.com/home-community/user-gallery-work-in-progress-and-final/

only the first one is missing the css and the other functions, but the other pages are working properly.

[franpeppe]

Hello,
Here is the root page where is possible to try:

https://www.eyecadvr.com/home-community/

this page is under elementor and with shortcodes it should display 5 forum roots but instead it displays just 1. As you can see at the right side is empty but before there was “Latest Posts” and “Thread Tag Cloud”.
By clicking on that first forum root folder, it will redirect to another page that is completely without CSS and without other functions; But once inside, clicking on the sub folder it will redirect in the right page where everything becomes perfect and correct as it should be in every page.

Hope that these informations can help you in order to help us.
Thanks.

This is the third time I’ve posted this as the first two have not shown up on the forums (I do apologise if they all show up at once now)

I need to edit css for the ‘Register here’ and ‘forgot password’ pages as they look terrible in responsive view when logged out, I can use CSS Hero for this..

However, I am unable to do this because being logged into wordpress (to enable me to edit css) means that I only see the ‘logged in’ view of the ‘register here’ and ‘forgot password’ pages. Whereas it’s actually the ‘logged out’ view I need to edit.

If you type https://findgyms.co.uk/forgot-password/ into:

http://responsiv.eu/

you should hopefully see what my dilemma is, as the unlogged in view should come up.

I hope this makes sense?

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Tim

I noticed that when you edit a reply that the “Reply To” combo appears squashed:

View post on imgur.com

So I added CSS to widen the select control and then was confused by the values in the drop-down list being truncated. I decided to examine the HTML (without making any CSS changes) and this is what I get:

`
<select name=”bbp_reply_to” id=”bbp_reply_to” class=”bbp_dropdown”>
<option value=”” class=”level-0″>3189 – Introduction to the Text and Visual Editors</option>
<option class=”level-1″ value=”3226″ disabled=”disabled”>   3226 – Update The</option>
</select>
`
The first entry is complete (although not all visible in the actual control). But the rest are all cropped to just a few letters. If I try other forum replies they are all the same.

Here is another example:

Why is it restricting the data displayed to just a few letters? I tried to research a reason and couldn’t find one.

Thanks

Let me first state I am doing this for security in light of all the wordpress sites being hacked. I want to change the #bbpress css ID’s to something like #forum.

I am not much of a coder so could I ask how I go about this ? or is there an easier way to go about this ?

[franpeppe]

Hello,
I have updated bbPress plugin to the latest version and i noticed that my forum is not working correctly now, when i go in the main page of the forum it loads just one topic and the page is without CSS, just a blank page with the title of the topic and some infos like the date and the creator.
Then i tried to download some old versions of bbPress to install but i dont remember which version was installed before.
So i tried bbPress 2.5.4 (its the one that i think it was installed before) and with this one i cant reach any page of the forum, infact when i go in the forum section of wordpress dashboard it load just a blank page.
I tried already some versions of bbPress from 2.5.1 to 2.5.9 then 2.6.0 and the latest but nothing changes.
The only difference is that with 2.6.0 or next loads correctly the forum section in the dashboard and with 2.5.9 or prev doesnt.

What went wrong just updating and reverting the update?

[Robert Hewitt]

For the part of my website containing bbPress, I don’t want the main navigation menu to show. To achieve this, I enter CSS code on the main web page where [bbp-forum-index] is displayed.

The CSS code does its job as far as the first page is concerned – that is the page where the forums are listed.

However, if you select a specific forum to look at, this takes you to a new page. Unfortunately, on the new page, the main navigation menu is showing. So the CSS code has not done its job here.

Any advice on how to solve this problem would be much appreciated!

[Robin W]

you have in-line css code that says

.bbp-forums {
 display:none
}

which means they don’t display, but the forum is there on the page.

I cannot see what is setting that, and in-line code cannot be overridden.

It may be your theme, or another plugin, so a setting you have in your theme or another plugin.

Have you added any plugins lately, or updated theme or plugins ?

[Chuckie]

This is the final CSS that looks good:

/* Recent Topics Widget */
/* See also: .widget_display_topics img.avatar.photo */
.widget_display_topics ul {
    background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04);
    padding: 10px 20px;
    list-style-type: none;
    margin: 0;
    margin-bottom: 1.66666667em;
}
a.bsp-la-reply-topic-title {
    color: #222222;
    font-weight: 600;
    display: block;
}
.bsp-la-text,
.bsp-la-topic-author,
.bsp-activity-freshness,
.bsp-activity-forum {
    font-size:12px;
    text-transform: uppercase;
}
.bsp-activity-author,
.bsp-activity-freshness,
.bsp-activity-forum {
    display: inline;
}
.bsp-activity-author:after,
.bsp-activity-forum > .bsp-la-text:before {
    content:"/";
    margin: 0 7px;
}
.widget_display_topics ul:last-child {
    margin-bottom: 0;
}

[sblwp]

Thank you Robin for helping me,

The procedure is all clear but unfortunately the breadcrumb is still displayed above the [bbp-topic-form].
Maybe that’s because the site is also using the WOffice plugin (some code there that would pass over the content-archive-forum.php ?)

I just thought of another solution, more wobbly maybe :
I can see in the code source that this div is called <div class ="bbp-breadcrumb"> meaning that if I create a .bbp-breadcrumb in my CSS file, I can add a display:none; and could hide it ?

[timmy321]

Hi Robin,

Thank you very much for replying!

Ah yes, so it’s the ‘forum index’ page that is displaying a different style to all the other pages.

I’ve used the short code: [bbp-forum-index] on the forum index page that I made in the WordPress ‘Add New’ page.

I’ve then linked the url: http://findgyms.co.uk/forums/ to the ‘Forums’ button in my header.

I hope this answers what you were asking?

In regards to the explanation in the linked item 8.. Well, that was a learning curve! I didn’t even know how to access the WordPress database but now I do!

If I’ve understand it correctly, this header issue is possible as the ‘topics’ pages in the forum posts have the correct header styling but the ‘index’ does not – from the description this says it could be due to the index page using the ‘about’ page style instead of the topics using the ‘posts’ style.

After looking in the database I think that the forum index page is using the correct ‘Astra’ theme, but not showing the correct css for my header that all my other pages are (even the ‘About’ page).

So I don’t think I would need to copy and rename the page.php file to bbpress.php (unless I wanted bbpress theme to be different to the astra theme – I think I’ve got that correct, if not apologies!)

I really appreciate any further help with this as this is becoming quite confusing for my extremely novice brain 🙂

Thanks,

Tim

[Robin W]

hmm, I took a look, and yes it’s another theme that is lazy and does it’s css using inline, which makes it a real pain to debug or override.

but I can’t see what is wrong to cause it.

do you have a forums’s page using a shortcode or are just using a url to go to forums?

see item 8 in this to understand what I mean

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

[timmy321]

Hi there,

Please bear with me here as I’m new to all this css stuff! I spent all of yesterday trying to find out what is going wrong..

After installing BB Press in my Astra Theme my header background colour, site title + tagline and sub menu + button have lost their formatting (or maybe more correctly termed style?).

You can see here:

http://findgyms.co.uk/forums/

This is compared to the header background colour and site title/tagline formatting in all my other pages (for example):

Home

This confuses me even more because the forum topics have the correct header formatting like all my other pages:

General Discussion

As I couldn’t understand where this issue lies I posted on the WordPress forum who then directed me here to ask the question 🙂

I’m building the pages through WordPpess dashboard as per this video example:

I’m using Elementor to build all my other pages.

Can anyone help please?

Many thanks in advance,

Tim

p.s. I would like to add even though I’ve literally spent 8 hours trying to figure this out I think bbpress is an awesome addition so thank you to whoever put it out there!!

[Robin W]

add this to your custom css

#bbpress-forums .entry {
	width: 100%;
}

[cryptoking]

I am a newbie on BBPress and just installed it and I’m in the process of setting it up. The problem is that the body columns are not aligning with the topic headings.

I did some testing and this is the default layout which is not aligning.

Forum: Imagination Room

However if I create a new Page and insert the shortcode the alignment is perfect, so I’m not sure what’s happening, but I don’t want to create several dozen pages and insert shortcodes, so I’d like to figure out why it’s not aligning.

test

I’ve tried messing with some of the css but I couldn’t figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[fdittmar]

Hi,

Could someone tell me if it’s possible (or even help me with identifying the correct specificity) to stop users from creating new topics in a specific subforum please.
Running BBP as part of a learning management system where user level/access etc are set based on their student/course status. Been fine for 3 years but now I’d like to provide a slightly stricter UI for some specific courses (which means the Forums/Topics).

My situation is:

Forum
-Subforum
–Topics
—Replies
–Topics
—Replies
-Subforum
–Topics
—Replies

My problem is in one of the subforums where the topics created by our teachers are listed but (obviously) the students also see the ‘Create New Topic’ option (which they need elsewhere). I wish to remove that New Topic Creation option there. I can’t do it via the Forum Attributes eg Closed Status because it needs to remain open for other child topics in the same forum.

I thought that using CSS (display:none) to remove the entire New Topic Entry box would work for me but my inexperience shows through because I can’t work it out even after hours looking online.

Is it possible to apply such css by adressing it against a specific post id?

I can remove the new topic box in the browser inspector various ways
(eg .bbp-reply-form, .bbp-topic-form {display: none;} or with #new-topic-0 etc) but I can’t get it done just for the 1 Subforum/Topic) –
This does not work: #bbpress-forums #bbp-forum-POSTID #new-topic-0. I also tried variations ul.bbp-parent-forum-21435 etc

In this example my Forum is post 21435, the topic in it is 21437 and I want to remove the New Topic Entry box on that page (students should only go to 21437 and use Replies there, not create topics)(sorry, actual forums are in the school system so not public).

Sorry for long post / cry for help. Maybe someone could assist… Thanks

[Robin W]

try adding this to your custom css

div.bbp-forum-header, div.bbp-reply-header, div.bbp-topic-header, li.bbp-body div.hentry {
	padding: 0px !important;
}

.oct-main-content {
	padding: 0px !important;
	
}

Hello again and sorry to necro my previous thread but the issue is I feel linked and so the history is perhaps useful.

Today I was trying to fix a persistent issue I have with BBpress where bullets and numerical lists will not show up in posts and some searching around led me to some posts where they suggested that some .css might be to blame with the lists function being disabled.

Looking around for the issue in my child theme I happened upon a bbpspress css file added called ‘loop single reply’ and decided to delete it temporarily to see if this was to blame.

I downloaded a copy and did not delete the one in file-manager so I could restore if needed.

Once I did it however it broken my special forum roles above and everybody except keymasters and spectators (the only standard roles I use) lost their forum roles.

Even after restoring the file, going into users and role editors the roles are all there, but I cannot reassign them, I can only assign standard forum roles.

The function.php file with role additions is the same as above, but these do not seem to be forum roles anymore, just user roles.

Before I revert the entire site to a previous day’s back-up and lose the applications and activity we have has since last night I thought I’d check here.

Many thanks in advance for your help and this definitely teaches me to always me to do a back-up before playing with files, no matter how trivial they may appear.

[failxontour]

It worked thanks! Sure wouldn’t have suspected that for the future i guess I should use the ispage() option to load it appropiately only for bbpress.

[failxontour]

Hey so I’m trying to enqueue custom CSS for bbPress v2.6.4 on the WP 5.4.1 clan website running a WP Twenty Twenty-child theme.

This is what my functions.php currently looks like

<?php
/**
* Child theme stylesheet einbinden in Abhängigkeit vom Original-Stylesheet
*/
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'child_theme_styles' );
function child_theme_styles() {
  wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
  wp_enqueue_style( 'child-theme-css', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/style.css' , array('parent-style'));
  wp_enqueue_style( 'child-theme-css', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .'/css/bbpress.css', array());
}
?>

And this is how my bbpress.css looks like.

#bbp-forum-info,
#bbp-forum-topic-count,
#bbp-forum-reply-count,
#bbp-forum-freshness {
  color: #232323;
}
#bbpress-forums {
  background: transparent;
  clear: both;
  margin-bottom: 20px;
  overflow: hidden;
  font-size: 1.75rem;
  color: #232323;
}

The changes I applied in the bbpress.css won’t update the bbpress CSS on the above mentioned site. So their must be something wrong with my functions.php but I can’t yet put my finger on it how to load it properly as I’m pretty new when it comes to WordPress. I wanna append these changes globally to all parts of bbPress forum.

Can someone tell me to if and what i need to specify inside the arrray() call for the bbpress.css to load properly? Or hint me towards what’s wrong here.

[cmsplay]

Loving bbPress.

We’ve set our fora (forums) to show only for logged-in users.

When a visitor is not logged in and they click on the Fora link, bbPress shows the following message:

Oh, bother! No forums were found here.

We’d rather that the message said ‘Fora are viewable by logged in members’.

How and where do we edit the ‘Oh bother!’ message? (Which might be the right CSS file?)

Thank you.

[theicebooky]

I found it dude: https://www.satollo.net/hide-the-subscription-toggle-on-bbpress-forums

.forum #subscription-toggle {
display: none;
}

This will only change the CSS design and does not mess with the core functions of the theme 🙂

[thanhpham123]

Subforums are not listed.
The subforums not being listed will be fixed in 2.6.1.

A few more questions:

Using any caching plugins?
Using any SEO plugins that might be interacting with CSS files?
Using a right-to-left language?
Overriding any constants? (WP_CONTENT_DIR, WP_PLUGIN_DIR, WP_THEME_DIR, etc…)
Anything else about your WordPress installations you can share?

The only related change I can find, is: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3012

If you’re able to edit that file in bbPress directly, and revert it back, and test, that would be super helpful to confirm or disconfirm if that does it.

[maaritludia]

@robin-w
I put it into the left sidebar (I have this in Finnish , so I dont know the right terms in English, sorry).
I have there a section “custom CSS” and I put it in the beginning.

…

.fl-page-header-fixed {
background-color:#000000!important;
}

#bbpress-forums li.bbp-forum-reply-count {
display: none;
}

/* Large Devices, Wide Screens */

@media only screen and (max-width : 1200px) {

}

/* Medium Devices, Desktops */

@media only screen and (max-width : 992px) {

}
…

[Robin W]

put this in the custom css section of your theme

#bbpress-forums  li.bbp-forum-reply-count {
	display: none;
}
