Hello,

bbPress 2.6.9
WordPress 6.3.1

Screenshot of issue: https://imgur.com/a/DhxatVA

The text box is wider than the mobile screen and it doesn’t look quite right.

Very best,

Ally.

suspect something your theme is doing, as works fine on my test site.

try

.bbp-topic-form, .bbp-reply-form, .bbp-topic-tag-form {
	width: 80% !important;
}

or

.bbp-topic-form, .bbp-reply-form, .bbp-topic-tag-form {
	width: 300px !important;
}

and play with the 80% or 300px – you can’t have both rules – they are just different ways of changing width.

Thanks but neither of those changed the width. I tried a variety of pixel and percentage options.

ok, not sure I can help further without a link to a live example under your theme.

Thanks, here is a link that should show it on mobile https://metpsy.com/forums/topic/welcome/.

you will need to open your site to anonymous posting to let me see the form

dashboard>settings>forums>anonymous

you can shut it down again afterwards

Done, thanks.

[@robin-w Moderator 2 years, 1 month ago]

try

#bbpress-forums p input {
	width: 240px !important;
}

[@allyhouston Participant 2 years, 1 month ago]

Bravo, you’ve done it again! Thanks.

I had the same issue here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/topic-create-text-area-off-the-screen-on-a-smartphone-in-forum-view/

Thanks so much @robin-w

I will mark my topic as solved and add a link to this one 🙂
