Hi, I like the forum summary widget (with total posts for each forum) used in bbPress support forum. See the first widget shown in the left sidebar.

I’ve been searching every where but just couldn’t find the widget. Any clues?

Regards.

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>widgets to see how to use them

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 3 weeks ago]

Thanks for your reply!

I only found three widgets in your plugin, ie, Latest Activity, Single Forum Information & Single Topic Information. But they are not the widget I’m looking for. The widget I mean should look like the one used in bbPress support forum (located top left).

Regards.

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 3 weeks ago]

that is the single topic info on my screen 🙂

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 3 weeks ago]

Hi, sorry for the confusion. I don’t know why I can’t post a screenshot link in this forum. Never mind, I just typed it out. Below is the widget I mean:

Forum                   Posts
Development & Updates   93
Installation            28,139
Troubleshooting         61,540
Themes                  10,285
Plugins                 15,193
Requests & Feedback     14,798
Showcase                3,252

Regards.

Hi @robin-w, do you have any idea about where to get this widget?

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

now in 5.8.3 of style pack see

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>widgets

It does very much depend on how your theme does lists and sidebars, so I do not intend to do individual site support on getting the css right – if it works great, if not then you’re on you own 🙂

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

Thanks for your effort @robin-w.

I want to highlight two issues with this widget:

1) If I position it as the first widget in the sidebar, it overlaps with other widgets which supposed to move down and give way to this widget;

2) The bullet point (*) is wrongly used in title “Forum” & “Posts”. I just feel that title should not apply bullet point.

* Forum                  * Posts
* Development & Updates   * 93
* Installation            * 28,139
* Troubleshooting         * 61,540
* Themes                  * 10,285
* Plugins                 * 15,193
* Requests & Feedback     * 14,798
* Showcase                * 3,252

Other than these two, the widget looks great! 🙂

suspect you need to clear cache on your browser

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

I cleared the cache but no luck. I tested with iPad (safari & chrome) even with desktop, all appears overlapping. But other widgets (from Bbp Style Pack) like recent topics & recent reply has no overlapping issues.

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

ok, as I said

‘It does very much depend on how your theme does lists and sidebars, so I do not intend to do individual site support on getting the css right – if it works great, if not then you’re on you own 🙂’

But I think it is related to when the widgets were created. try deleting and recreating the second widget. or moving the topic list down.

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

I deleted all other widgets, and started with this Forum List widget first, followed by others. Overlapping issue persists. One thing to note is that all other widgets have not caused this problem, including those from Bbp Style Pack. This make me think that the issue is not from the theme itself (probably something missing within the codes?)

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

so if you put the widget one down ?

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

ok, I’ve found the issue, and will be fixed in the next version, which should be out tomorrow

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

Thanks @robin-w. A quick check found that the issue is still there after updating Bbp Style Pack.

If I put Forums List widget in the 1st position, e.g.,
Forums List widget
Recent Topics widget
Recent Replies widget

Frontend result:
Forums List widget overlaps with the rests

If I move Forums List widget down to 2nd position, e.g.,
Recent Topics widget
Forums List widget
Recent Replies widget

Frontend result:
Recent Topics widget stays in the 1st position with no issue
Forums List widget does move to the 2nd position but now overlaps with Recent Replies widget

Regards.

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

new version still be to issued 🙂

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

Thanks again. Can you look into the second issue as well?

The bullet point (*) is wrongly used in title “Forum” & “Posts”. I just feel that title should not apply bullet point.

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

that is down to your theme, if you can provide a live link to it, I’ll see if some easy css will fix

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

Yes. Here is the link to my site. It is still under construction.

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

ok, try 5.8.5 just released

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

Hi Robin, updated your plugin. Yes, it does solve the 2nd issue. But the overlapping problem still persists. Please refer my live link to better understanding the issue. Thanks.

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

ok, I’ve spent way too much time on this, so last roll of the dice – see in 5.8.6 fixes.

[@enkoes Participant 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

Hi @robin-w, your last roll of the dice does the tricks. Appreciated very much for your help! 🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 10 months, 2 weeks ago]

phew !!
