It is in the template files `form_reply.php` and `form_topic.php`
The line that calls the WP_Editor class to create the textarea using the relatively new WordPress core front end editor is this one:
`bbp_the_content( array(‘context’ => ‘reply’)`
You can look into the `bbp_the_content` function to see how BBP does it and how you can circumvent default behaviour.
Notice that this line only applies if the fancy editor is enabled for the current user*. Otherwise the template file falls back to display the classical textarea (which is also the one used in this forum).
*) It seems there’s a bug in BBP 2.2.4 making the fancy editor available only to the keymaster. This can be overridden in the code of course.
Oh, sorry. I didn’t see you were using BBPress below version 2.
But the logic that creates the textarea is probably in the same theme files in your version. Of course they won’t be using the new WP front end editor though.
No I’m using 2.x thanks for the help I will see if I can work it out
I got it
The fallback text area is controlled by `includes\common\template-tags.php` around line 1,557 if anybody else is looking.
