BasePress

Hi @nobnob,

I am happy to hear that you appreciate BasePress!
I suppose the issue is with the Accordion Menu Widget and not the Table of Content (this is premium feature). Please let me know if I am wrong.

That widget has an option to list the articles before the sections. Can you please try enabling that option and let me know if that fixes it for you?

Thanks

Hi @knluu,

the main knowledge base slug can be changed from WP-Admin > Pages.
There you should find a page for the Knowledge base. Change the slug for that page and then go to BasePress > Settings and just save the settings. This will refresh the permalinks to work with the new slug.
As @crazywpgeek mentioned you can also change each KB slug from the “Manage KBs” page.

If you have any issue just let me know!

Hi @jakub1978cyborg,

no it is not possible to use your WordPress theme as a BasePress theme.
BasePress themes are used to style only the content portion of the KB.
Because each WordPress theme is different it is not possible to make BasePress match with all of them so the plugin ships with 3 themes.
Basepress themes can be customised as described here: https://codesavory.com/knowledge-base/basepress/basepress-themes/customize-a-knowledge-base-theme/

Usually adapting the CSS is all it takes to match the look of your WordPress theme. If more changes are needed all the templates that make up a BasePress theme can be customised as well.

I hope this clarifies things a bit!

Hi @jakub1978cyborg,

When you visit a page on your site, WordPress would determine which template should be used to render the page.
The header and footer are generally loaded by this template. Some themes though load the header and footer from outside the template. That option is for those rare cases.
if the page doesn’t load properly with that option enabled, most probably your theme is not loading the header and footer from outside the template. You should therefore disable that option.
All default WordPress themes like Twenty Seventeen work without enabling that option.
If without that option the pages are not loading properly we can have a look at how your theme work and let you know how to integrate BasePress with it.

Thanks

Yes you can limit the style to articles only like this:

.single-knowledgebase .bpress-content-area ul li {
list-style-image:url(‘https://dxfferent.nl/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/3_01_7yI_icon.ico’;);
}

I noticed that you are hiding the first breadcrumb item via css.
You can remove it completely from the list like this:

//Remove entry page breadcrumb item
add_filter( 'basepress_breadcrumbs_items', function( $breadcrumbs_list ){
	$breadcrumbs_list = array_filter( $breadcrumbs_list, function( $item ){
		return 'entry-page' !== $item['context'];
	});

	return $breadcrumbs_list;
});

Hi,

as mentioned in th earticle you shouldn’t change the plugin’s files but make a copy of them.
In your case you should copy this file:

wp-content/plugins/basepress-premium/themes/modern/template-parts/post-content.php

and paste it in:

wp-content/themes/your-child-theme/basepress/modern/template-parts/post-content.php

Then you can make the changes to the new file.
If you are not using a child theme, you can paste the file in your downloads directory:

wp-content/uploads/basepress/modern/template-parts/post-content.php

Thanks

Hi @jasperaap,

I took a look at the list on the page.
There is a css file from your theme that removes the bullets and then restores them to the post content using the class .entry-content:
/themes/op-smart-theme3/css/all.min.css

Please follow the instructions in this article: https://codesavory.com/knowledge-base/basepress/basepress-themes/customize-a-knowledge-base-theme/
on how to customize a template and override the following BasePress template:
wp-content/plugins/basepress-premium/themes/modern/template-parts/post-content.php

At line 37 replace this line:

<div class="bpress-article-content">

with this:

<div class="bpress-article-content entry-content">

That should do it but if not just let me know!

Hi @jasperaap,

just to make sure I understand the issue:
are you using the List block to add your lists and these do not show in the front end? Or are just the bullets not showing in the list?

Thanks
