Hi,

bbpress showing blank pages and multiplying fields on our websites when we are using de themes Astra, the WordPress themes Twenty Twenty-Two and Twenty Twenty-three. It works only with Twenty Twenty-one.

I made a staging website to be able to test it: https://staging.armanl.eu/test/

The bbpress pages with has a fields multiplying problems with Asstra theme are : https://staging.armanl.eu/test/forums/users/beabudai/

With the other themes they show a blank page except with Twenty Twenty-one.

I am using the latest version of WordPress and bbpress version Version 2.6.9

All the other plugin are deactivated for testing purposes.

Please can someone help with this problem?

Thank you, Bea

This is one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
install

bbp style pack

once activated, navigate to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.

In that tab, select

Enable Theme Support

and save

The forums should then display

Hi Robin, thank you for your reply. I don’t see the theme support tab. It begins with Forums Index Styling…

with which theme?

[@beabudai Participant 1 year, 9 months ago]

With the WP Twenty Twenty-Two and Twenty Twenty-three I see that option but if I switch to Astra then this option disappears…

[@robin-w Moderator 1 year, 9 months ago]

ok, so does it work with Twenty Twenty-Two and Twenty Twenty-three? then we know the problem is with Astra

[@beabudai Participant 1 year, 9 months ago]

Ah, OK, I will contact Astra then. Thanks for your help.

this appears to be the problem reported to Astra

[@robin-w Moderator 1 year, 9 months ago]

given that Astra have not replied, if you want me to take a paid look to see if I can see the issue, contact me and we can set a budget

I spent a couple of hours yesterday hunting down the issue.

This code fixes it :

add_filter ('astra_single_layout_one_banner_visibility', 'astra_bbpress_fix', 50) ;

function astra_bbpress_fix ($value) {
	if( class_exists( 'bbpress' ) ) {
		if (bbp_is_single_user()) return false ;
		if (bbp_is_search()) return false ;
	}
return $value ;
}

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

or use

for others finding this thread – if you have the additional bbp-style-pack plugin – and why would you not have this 🙂

bbp style pack

then this fix is available at a single click – so not coding or other plugins needed.

once activated just go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack and click the theme support button
