Installed bbpress but can't see forums in the dashboard

[bakbek]

Hi, I installed the bbpress plugin but for some odd reason I can’t see “forums” in my admin dashboard and also can’t see it under settings.

The plugin is installed and activated – https://www.evernote.com/shard/s55/sh/9f2dd600-e2a1-45fe-ae5d-8679f02fe515/289b2955819381ddf556fd844a0113c3/deep/0/Plugins—Sous-Vide—סו-ויד-ישראל—WordPress.png

Any idea what could cause this and how to fix it ?

Hey DROR!

Try deactivating all of your plugins including bbPress and then activate only bbPress to see if they display. If they do then reactivate your plugins one by one to see which one is causing the issue.

Tried that, didn’t work.

Hey!

I found this topic at the bbPress support forums, https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cannot-see-forums-tab-in-wordpress-dashboard/.

Can you create us an admin login so we can take a closer look?

Hey!

I didn’t see bbPress installed in your plugins. I noticed you had Buddypress installed but you’ll want to install the actual bbPress plugin instead, https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/.

Cheers!

Sorry, forgot to install it again. It is installed now and I can’t see the forums menu…

Hi!

I see them fine on my end. Try clearing your browser cache.

Cheers!

That’s just weird. I cleared all cache and still can’t see it…

Can you give me the URL of the forums admin page so I will try accessing it directly to see if that works?

Hi!

Can you check if the issue persists with the default WordPress theme activated? have you tried disabling all third-party plugins (except bbPress) to see if it gets fixed?

Cheers!

Hi!

Please try this link: http://www.sousvide.co.il/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=forum

Deactivate all plugins except for bbPress then try it again.

Hey!

Please add following code to Quick CSS

li.bbp-forum-info, li.bbp-topic-title {
width: 75%;
}

That fixed the titles but the post number is still out of place – http://screencast.com/t/vTPbH3NmsEe – How can I fixed that part too?

[Yigit]

Hey!

Please add following code to Quick CSS as well

entry-content-wrapper li { margin-right: 0; }

Best regards,
Yigit

[bakbek]

Doesn’t seem like that worked. Looks the same as before.

[Yigit]

Hi!

Code is not being applied. Please try adding !important rule as following

entry-content-wrapper li { margin-right: 0!important; }

Cheers!
Yigit

[bakbek]

Still doesn’t look like it changes anything.

[Ismael]

Hey!

The forum page looks fine when I checked it. Please try to remove browser cache then check it again.

Regards,
Ismael

[bakbek]

I did. Also checked it on different browsers and computers and in all it looks wrong with the 0 not showing under posts but under forum.

[Yigit]

Hi!

Do you mind creating a temporary admin login and posting it here privately so we can look into it?

Cheers!
Yigit
