We are using Enfold 2.4.5 and want to use bbPress 2.5.3. Enfold should be compatible with this version of bbPress as stated in the description. Unfortuntaley, as soon as we activate bbPress, our sidebars are completely empty. Our developer told us that the problem is line 121 of config-bbpress/config.php:
register_sidebar(array(
‘name’ => ‘Forum’,
‘before_widget’ => ‘<div id=”%1$s” class=”widget clearfix %2$s”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ‘<span class=”seperator extralight-border”></span></div>’,
‘before_title’ => ‘<h3 class=”widgettitle”>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘</h3>’,
));
If this line is removed, it works again and we see our normal sidebar. We do not have any idea why this is happening. Could you please help us?
Hi webshop-factory!
Yes, unfortunately this is a wordpress limitation. See https://kriesi.at/support/topic/toppanel-plugin-messed-up-widgets-widget-areas-in-enfold/
Basically the issue is caused by the changing widget area ids and youou just need to reconfigure the widget areas. You can use the “Inactive Widget” section to temporarily store the widgets and to rearrange them before/after you activate a plugin.
Cheers!
