Hello,
if I create a topic or reply to a topic I have to fill out the box “Topic text”. In my form is no description above the texarea which explains what to fill out here. “Topic text” is missing.

I use a German translation .po. Is might the string not added? Can you give me the name of the englisch “topic text”, so I can check if it works?

I have looked add the templates/default/bbpress/form-topic.php but couldn’t find the string there.

Thanks a lot

ok, I’m not sure what you mean – can you post a picture of the area

Here is the image https://ibb.co/zGX9KWs.
Above the text area is no text which describes what to enter in the textarea field (like the other form fields).
Thanks

ok so 2 things you can do here

1. add a label

add_action ('bbp_theme_before_topic_form_content' , 'rew_content_title') ;

function rew_content_title () {
echo '<label for="bbp_topic_content">Topic Content</label><br />' ;
}

Just change ‘Topic Content’ to whatever you wish

2. add back the editor

add_action( 'wp_footer', 'rew_supports_js' );

function rew_supports_js() {
	echo '<script>document.body.classList.remove("no-js");</script>';
}

Put these in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

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

or use
