Hello Dear Support!

My sincere regards.

I know bbpress is not in the range of support for the theme. But I personaliy thinks it is kind of absurd. Because I am not a developer and I don’t know codes at all.

But with your support, I establish the wordpress site without any problem.

But now I just need the forum bbpress part. I am struggling on this part for one month until now and no progess at all. I tried to search helper on the third party platform like upwork to get a helper. But cannot find reliable ones.

So I would like to humble request to get support for bbpress setup on our site at a reasonable price from your forum. Or the site is not complete. I cannot start marketing.
Look forward to your reply.

Dear All,

I have asked help in bbpress forum and someone is starting to answer me.

Sorry for disturbing here.

My best regards!

Dear Friends,

i was told to use a plugin called bbp style pack to finish bbpress editing on the backend. But when I used the bbp style pack plugin, it does not work on the frontend of forums. When i checking the reason for not working, he said, the theme authors may have revised the bbpress files. So is it true? When i install bbpress plugin, it is automatically revised by pro theme?

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

There are some integration with bBPress and our theme, but it should work well since it follows bBpress standard. Would you mind providing more information of what you’re trying to accomplish with bBPress which fails to work? We may able to provide some recommendation if it’s related to theme’s integration :slight_smile:

Thanks!

Hi there,

I’m not familiar with that plugin at all, would you mind providing a video recording? And please provide your site’s URL so I could check it at all. All I could do is check it, if there is any incompatibility then I’ll add this to our issue tracker :slight_smile:

Thanks!

Hello Dear Rad,

The website is https://ibywind.com

I will attach the video later today by here.

Thanks for your attention.

Hello I try to upload the video but it does not allow me to do this.

it told as below.

Sorry, the file you are trying to upload is not authorized (authorized extensions: jpg, jpeg, png, gif).

And if you go to the backend and have a try from setting-bbp style pack, and you will understand what i told.

Hey There,

The BBP style pack may not work because the Pro theme has also a specified styling for bbpress. You can check out the demos here:
http://demo.theme.co/integrity-1/forums/



http://demo.theme.co/ethos-1/forums/

bbPress has been styled differently in 4 different stack that you may have selected.

At this moment, we only knew that you need help. We do not know what kind of help we can give you. I think the best way we can help you is to ask you to iterate what are the things you want to do with the bbPress forum page.

Thank you in advance.

Hello Dear RueNel,

Thanks for your kind reply.

Now my problem is how can I set up bbpress the same look as the demo look, for example, Renew!

Thanks for your help in advance. I appreciate it very much!

Hey Daphne,

Your current setup and the demo looks almost the same except for the color and other elements.

Renew demo:

Your current setup:

Can you give us details on what you need with your current setup?

Thanks.

Hello Dear Christian,

1.First the renew demo is with breadcrumbs while our site ibywind forum is without.

There is the breadcrumb on the renew. but on our site there is no breadcrumb.
2.

I want to make our forum the same font size and font shape as the demo renew.

the problem for our forum page now, I want to remove the search window just above the topic. And I want to make the topics the same width within the inner cabin.

Best Regards
Daphne

Hey Daphne,

  1. Regarding the breadcrumbs, the classic header breadcrumb is not available if you’re using a Pro header. What you can do is, add another bar to your header and in that bar, add in a Breadcrumb element.

  1. The font-size is the same in Renew 2 demo and in your site. The font-family used in Renew 2 is Oxygen. You will need to set your Body Font to Oxygen under Appearance > Theme Options > Typography.

  2. The form inside the forum content could be hidden using this CSS.


.bbp-forum-content .bbp-search-form {
    display: none;
}

However, it is not possible to expand the width of the forum content inside the forum info.

Hope that helps.

Hello Dear Christian,

Yes. It does solve my current questions. Thanks once again.

Still there is some issues left for the forum part.

  1. the renew is with some background photo and the forum content is in the center. Which looks good.

    if i want to be the same , what can I do to make it.
  2. when i click on the “gladiator” in the forum list, what i see is below.

    But on our site, when you click on any forum page, it looks like this:

Please kindly advise. Thanks very much!

Yours sincerely,

Daphne

Hi Daphne,

  1. Please add a background image in Appearance > Theme Options > Layout and Design.

  1. bbPress will currently use the Classic Header if you have not set a Global Header in Pro. You need to create a new header to be used globally.

Thanks.

#15

Hello Dear Christian,

Thanks for your help!

  1. about the background image, yes. now I have added a background image based on your instruction.

https://ibywind.com/theforum/ but it is different from the renew forum demo in header and the edge gaps distance.


2)2) bbPress will currently use the Classic Header if you have not set a Global Header in Pro. You need to create a new header to be used globally.—It works for sure. Thanks so much!

Best Regards
Daphne

Hi there,

Glad it’s okay now. About the space, the renew uses a landmark, but on your site, it’s a simple title with the wrapper.

  1. Please decrease your first section’s top padding, 0px should be enough since the title has its own space.

  2. Please add this CSS to decrease the space between the title and wrapper

.page-id-1784 .entry-wrap {
padding-top: 30px;
}

Hope this helps.
