Hi,

Since updating to WP5.6 there is an issue where the following div is always visible:

bbp-form password wp-pwd hide-if-js

You can register here:

so when is this shown, do you have a link to an example

[@confusedneedhelp Participant 4 years ago]

I am not sure how to send you a link as it is on the Edit Profile page. You have to be logged in to view it and the link is dynamic. It is the Generate Password part of the form. I can send you a screenshot maybe?

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

ok, i registered, but now how do I get to the forums and my profile?

[@confusedneedhelp Participant 4 years ago]

Click on the Profile Icon in the menu bar. It looks like a little man. Then click EDIT.

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

just tried it – generate, show, hide and cancel all work as expected

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

maybe you need to clear your browsercache?

[@confusedneedhelp Participant 4 years ago]

No, it is not the browser cache. Can you confirm that when you load the Edit Profile page that the inputs and the HIDE and CANCEL buttons are not visible? For me they are visible on page load and I thought the default was that they are hidden and only appear when you click GENERATE PASSWORD.

Hide and Cancel buttons are visible on page load. Is this a custom coding?

[@confusedneedhelp Participant 4 years ago]

No, there is no modification other than some basic CCS changes. When you hit the CANCEL button the whole thing disappears. This is how it used to load for me. Then after clicking GENERATE PASSWORD the whole div would appear.

The div is called: bbp-form password wp-pwd hide-if-js which suggests it should be hidden but no worries I can manage as it is.

Thanks for your help.

If you could remove my website link it would be much appreciated.

I see what you mean now – and can replicate on my test site. I can’t say if this is as a result of 5.6 as my site os now at that, and I don’t have a test site at 5.5.x, but when I next generate one, I’ll look at it.

I’ve removed you site, can you remove me from your site please

[@confusedneedhelp Participant 4 years ago]

Ok thanks, I have deleted you from the site.

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

put this in the custom css area of your theme

#bbpress-forums #bbp-your-profile fieldset fieldset.password {
		display: none;
}

and let me know if it works !

[@confusedneedhelp Participant 4 years ago]

Hi,
Thanks Robin, that has fixed it. I am not sure what changed it in the first place.
Many thanks

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

I am not sure what changed it in the first place.

nor am I! – I suspect a css change on WordPress, but could spend days and lose the will to live if I tried to find it 🙂

Anyway, glad you are fixed
