Hi Guys,

Having issues removing the author name in the freshness column.

The author shows up under the topic column (Started by: <author>), and it also shows up on the freshness column (<avatar> <author>).

I want to remove the last part.

I have copied loop-forums.php and loop-single.php into my <theme>\bbpress\ folder and am assuming I need to modify one of these?

Thanks In Advance

Make that loop-forums.php and loop-topics.php

It is in loop-single-topic.php and loop-single-forum.php.

In the files you will see something similar to this. In this example I am editing the loop-single-topic.php file.

<span class="bbp-topic-freshness-author">
    <?php bbp_author_link( array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_topic_last_active_id(), 'size' => 14 ) ); ?></span>

Change it to something like this. You see I just added the extra attribute. 'type' => 'avatar'

<span class="bbp-topic-freshness-author">
	<?php bbp_author_link( array( 
                'post_id' => bbp_get_topic_last_active_id(), 
                'size' => 14 , 
                'type' => 'avatar'
                ) );
       ?>
</span>

bbp_author_link

Beautiful, I worked out from your post that I just needed to remove the whole line. All is well now!

Thanks 🙂
