Hello everyone,,
I admit I am a “newbie” and am having a bundle of problems. I am in the process of building a website which is still offline, and am very stuck. I am using ocean wp and I don’t know how to find out the version, but everything is new in the last 2 weeks.. sorry I really am a newbie…
I am making “TheAmericanQuarterHorse.com” and wanted to make a small forum page alongside of information pages, I had to do a whole pile of deleting and rebuilding on the forum site, but now I have the basic structure!! So that is a plus, but am stuck on the login–register-lost password widget. The first time I made it, it put the menu all over the place and the login was on every page. Iwas using bbpress tweaks, so uninstalled the bbpress tweaks, and ended up re-installing. I watched a whole pile of youtube on how to do it, and went back at it. I did all the “making the page” and putting the permalinks in the widget slot in the bbpress side bar. This time I had logins on every page BUT THE FORUM PAGE!!! This is the 3rd time I have deleted everything and started over.. I am about to forget the whole thing or use a different forum widget. I am STUCK. Any ideas??
The other thing is the text is sooo thin and tiny on the forum page it is hard to see. I have heard something about css, but have no clue about what that is or how to use it..
Would really appreciate any ideas..
thanks

I think this task will be hard for you. Anybody around you can help you with basic knowloedge of CSS and PHP/WordPress ?

You have a explaination of many custom things you can do with bbpress here : https://codex.bbpress.org/layout-and-functionality-examples-you-can-use/

GOod luck 😉

ok, for the participants trashing topics, install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topic/Reply Display items 17,18,& 19

On the widgets, install
the ‘widget logic plugin’, and on pages you want the widget, use

is_bbpress()

in the condition
