Any suggestions on which forum plugin works nicely with the illdy theme? I tried bbpress but it doesn’t integrate nicely with the theme.

I installed bbpress and there are two problems that I’m having. First, the forum form is displaying all the options for the message as long vertical buttons. Second, the sidebar is displaying the login wording options on different lines and doesn’t look smooth. Now I don’t know if this a formatting error within the theme or within the plugin. Can I easily fix these issues with some type of css code? Please refer to the pictures to get an idea of the issues.

Thank you

Hello there,

Thanks for the link.

I checked the page and the login information is in one line however when I tried to make register as a user to view the other issue there was a 500 server error message. Do you still have the plugin active?

Hello thank you for letting me know about this issue. I haven’t deactivated the plugin and found out that there was a conflicting problem with another plugin. I fixed the problem and you should be able to ask the forum now. Thank you for your help and looking forward to your answer.

Hello there,

You can use the following CSS code to fix the button width by going to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS and pasting it there.

/*Button width*/
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-the-content-wrapper input {
    width: auto;
}
