Forum overlapped by sidebar, width problem

    Hi there, this is a follow-up to my post because as it turned out, those were not the main problem. (The post display was too wide, similar to the problem below; and the translated german titles of the message count rows were wrapped to a second line, whereas the shorter english titles would have worked. Both were fixed individually by css.)

    Now I am still having this problem with at the compose area. See below. This is an animated GIF to show the effect when some text is entered.

    since your other pages with the sidebar look fine and adjust well.

    only thing i can think is maybe you created a bbpress.php and removed some divs that were essential for the sidebar??

    since your theme is free i will download it and check it out.

    Hi Robkk, no I did not create a bbpress.php, nor did I make any other changes than shown in the other thread – I added some definitions to the css of our theme, to adjust the width problem at forums list and at topic (content) display.

    I guess, now I could either fix also the width of the editor area individually and hopefully then I’m done (but how?), or try to find the cause of the problem between bbPress and our theme.

    Which is a mod of the free “Quark” theme https://wordpress.org/themes/quark/

    the theme actually works pretty well by default

    is there any CSS rules you added to customize bbPress for your site??

    it might be conflicting with that section.

    Yes, I added CSS code to change the width of two rows of the forum index:

    li.bbp-forum-topic-count,
    li.bbp-topic-voice-count,
    li.bbp-forum-reply-count,
    li.bbp-topic-reply-count {
    float: left;
    text-align: center;
    width: 12%;
    }
    
    li.bbp-forum-freshness,
    li.bbp-topic-freshness {
    text-align: center;
    float: left;
    width: 20%;
    }

    And also this, because the topic display was to wide too:

    .bbp-reply-content p {
    width : 580px !important ;
    }

    Maybe I could fix the problem here by also setting the width to 580px for the edit field, but I have no clue how.

    sorry want on the past day

    this looks like the wrong CSS to use if the topic was too wide to me.

    .bbp-reply-content p {
    width : 580px !important ;
    }

    remove it so i could check it out.

    then i will be able to fix this issue and other one.
