I have WordPress ver. 4.8.2–en_GB and bbpress ver. Version 2.6-rc-3.The forum I created can be seen here:
https://freyer.com/forums/topic/this-is-a-very-long-topic-as-i-have-loads-to-discuss-2/?csshero_action=edit_page&rand=272

After setting up bbpress I have this search issue that when I search the forum, the results are messy as you can see above.
Any idea where I can make changes, so the page displays properly?

thanks,
Riggie

My apologies the link above was not displaying… it should be:

I activated many other themes and also get jumbled text results.

Would appreciate any help.

thanks,
Riggie

The problem is not not in bbPress itself. After inspecting your website, at first glance, it appears you have the plugin bbPress – New UI installed which modifies the appearance of bbpress. It is possible the plugin has compatibility issues with your bbpress installation.

In the browser I locally disabled the CSS loaded by the plugin and it fixed the overlapping and alignment issues. The reason changing themes does not help is that the plugin remains active regardless what theme you are using. I would recommend disabling the plugin and manually adjusting css.

If you are not familiar with CSS, I highly recommend the plugin Yellow Pencil by Waspthemes. It is a visual CSS style editor and makes it very simple to style any WordPress theme or plugin, including bbPress.
