Is there any way to style the logged in users replies?
I’d like to change the background/border etc. the logged in users posts to help better distinguish ones own posts.
Any tips or ideas on doing this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

ok, I worked out an easy way to do that

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this

so replace line 61 which reads

<div class="bbp-reply-content">

with

<?php
	//now check if it is the topic author
		$author = bbp_get_reply_author_id(bbp_get_reply_id()) ;
		$current_user = get_current_user_id() ;
		if ($author == $current_user) {
			echo '<div class="bbp-reply-content bbp-author">' ;
		}
		else echo '<div class="bbp-reply-content">' ;
	?>

then just add the bbp-author css styling to your theme’s custom css

eg

.bbp-author {
background : green ;
}

you might require

.bbp-author {
background : green !important;
}

depending on where you put the css.
