Forums index does not work

  • @carlosburgos

    Participant

    When I try to view the index of forums, it looks good on a computer but it is not seen when I open it on a smartphone.

    It appears the Foros word (forums), and no more.

    I have WordPress 4.7.5 and Twenty Fourteen theme.

    I’d need a link to your site to see

    line 2930 of your custom css file changes this for


    @media
    screen and (max-width: 400px)

    using

    .list-view .site-content .cat-links, .list-view .site-content .entry-content, .list-view .site-content .entry-summary, .list-view .site-content footer.entry-meta {
        display: none;
    }

    you need to add some custom css for instance

    @media screen and (max-width: 400px) {
    .list-view .site-content .cat-links, .list-view .site-content .entry-content, .list-view .site-content .entry-summary, .list-view .site-content footer.entry-meta {
        display: initial !important;
    }
    
    }

    so, what text I must to replace?

    Sorry, I don’t understand you :/

    ok, you need to get this code into your site.

    @media screen and (max-width: 400px) {
    .list-view .site-content .cat-links, .list-view .site-content .entry-content, .list-view .site-content .entry-summary, .list-view .site-content footer.entry-meta {
        display: initial !important;
    }
    
    }

    There are many ways to do this.

    If you theme has a custom css area, you can put it in there

    Otherwise you can look for a css plugin and add that

    or you could install and activate my style pack plugin

    bbp style pack

    and go to

    dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>custom css and put the code in there

    @robin-w For some reason I have the same problem with the bbpress forum index. It does not work.

    Here is the site link. But at the Forums level, no index.
    The [bbp-forum-index] code is on the Forum created.

    Any help would be great.

    the forums link seems to be

    /forums/forum/forum which is a bit weird.

    so can you confirm that you have a page called ‘forums’ with a permalink of ‘forums’ and the shortcode
    [bbp-forum-index] in it?

    @linuxgameconsortium

    Participant

    Yes I can confirm this.

    That being said, I take the Forum page itself is the best place to issue the bbPress Index?

    can only think that you have a conflict

    It could be a theme or plugin issue

    Plugins

    Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

    Themes

    If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

    Then come back

    For some reason, after disabling a few plugins and even deleting the Forum.

    The new Forum is still coming up with “/forums/forum/forum”?

    Any idea?

    @robin-w

    ok, think I have just had a thought

    so you have one forum called ‘forum’ – yes ?

    @linuxgameconsortium

    Participant

    Yes… one Forum called Forums.

    @robin-w

    I think it is your theme, but of you are only having one forum, then you could create a page called anything and put

    [bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id] – Display a single forums topics. eg. [bbp-single-forum id=32]

    you can find the ID of your forum by looking at the number in the url when esiting it ie in

    dashboard>forums>all forums>edit forum

    and use this page as your forum page.

    It may work, it may not 🙂

    Using the actually Forum post ID works:

    /forums/forum/forums/

    But the URL is a mess.

    The actually forum post URL is alright

    /forums/topic/welcome-linux-game-consortium-forums/

    you can take out one of the forums by

    dashobaord>settings>forums>Forum Root Slug>Forum Prefix and untick

    @linuxgameconsortium

    Participant

    All good already. Found some redirects from previous forum creation attempts.
    After deleting these and anything related to the previous forum and voila, good to go.
    So the index works as expected as well. With a search enabled too.

    Thanks for the help Robin.
