Good Morning,
I am making use of bbpress but noticed a concept used I wanted to ask if it was possible it could be customized.
While using bbpress i noticed it makes use of #- post name as shown in the image below

i wanted to ask if this could be hidden as it is displayed both to visitors and users as I also wanted to ask if it could be replaced with this format below

As when a user adds a topic it shows #1 and as replies are being added later it follows from #2 further
As I wanted all to show the function starting from #1

I also wanted to ask if there was a plugin that supported sharing bbpress topics.
( i also noticed a concept used by a website that when user press that #-post number –
a link pos u asking the person to copy the link to share the post topic or reply

1. bbpress uses wordpress post database, so these are wordpress post numbers, so no, you cannot have different numbers for bbpress (without completely re-writing bbpress !).

2.

I also wanted to ask if there was a plugin that supported sharing bbpress topics.

None that I know of

1) okay but is there a way to hide it as i noticed those number,are not showing up in the bbpress support forum.

[@robin-w Moderator 6 years, 11 months ago]

put this in your custom css area

.bbp-reply-permalink {
display : none ;
}

[@keshabee Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

sorry but the style code did not work.
what i want to hide is those things post numbers like #456, #4654

hope to hear from you soon, Thank you

[@robin-w Moderator 6 years, 11 months ago]

try this

a.bbp-reply-permalink {
display : none !important;
}

[@keshabee Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

wow thank you very much, it works now
as both seems to work now, likely the first did not work immediately due to cache but works now, I appreciate it.
But sorry if I may ask another question here, I noticed bbpress has a widget to list forums, which i make use of but i wanted to ask if there was a way for it to show the to total number of topics on each forum at its side
