    Hello,

    I am using the latest version of wordpress (5.4) and the most recent version of bbPress (2.6.4)

    Website: ticsandthoughts.com

    I am using the Responsive theme.

    I am extremely new to all of this, so apologies if this is a dumb question. I recently set up a forum through bbPress and am wanting to remove the top text on the page “Archive: Forums”, as well as the text description “bbPress forums”.

    Here’s a link to how it looks right now: https://ticsandthoughts.com/forums/

    Thanks so much in advance!

    Alex

    Hi Robin,

    Thanks for the quick response. Yes I have a wordpress page called forums with the shortcode [bbp-forum-index] in the body.

    From there, in my menus, the Forums link is linked to https://ticsandthoughts.com/forums/

    Thank you for the tip Robin. I believe I have done this correctly, in my menus I removed the custom link and inserted the actual forums page, and from what I can see it still has the title Archive: Forums along with the description of bbPress Forums below that… any other tips I can try?

    Thanks again for all of your help

    it is theme related – all I can suggest is adding this in the custom css area of your theme

    .`forum-archive .site-content-header {
    display : none !important;
    }`

    I figured as much, I put in the above code in the CSS and it worked perfectly! I spent hours trying to edit my child theme this past weekend with no success, and you fixed it in 2 seconds. Thanks so much!

    For anybody else that might use this in the future, in the above code, this worked for me after removing the “‘” between the “.” and “forum-archive”. So:

    .forum-archive .site-content-header {
    display : none !important;
    }

    Thanks again for all the help Robin!
