bbpress forum display settings

[alanjacobs]

Hi, I have a bbpress forum which works, however it’s display/layout is not at all what I want.

I have used the bbp style pack plugin to rid of the Right hand column of WP meta data – presumably from a default page template?

However I would also like to retain my sites existing header and menu bar ( created with Elementor Pro and OceanWP ) when viewing the forum. How can I do this?

Thanks
Alan

Can you please elaborate what do you mean by Right hand column of WP Meta Data? Any screenshot would be helpful.

Also, share your site link so we can help you better. 🙂

Hi, I seem to have reversed this now! I have a working header on my forums page but I also have the right hand sidebar Posts data.

Here’s a test forum showing the unwanted Latest Posts etc links on the right hand side.

In normal page terms I think I want to use, say, Elementor Full Width template rather than Default template. But not sure how to do this with Forum pages.

Thanks

Hi,

Please add the below code in Customizer – Custom CSS/JS – CSS Code:

.bbpress .content-area {
    width: 100%;
}
.bbpress .widget-area {
    display: none;
}

This will remove the sidebar and make content full width.
