Okay that’s really strange … In fact, the loop-forums.php is not ignored at all, it’s just that it changes nothing.
Because if I delete the original loop-forums.php in \wp-content\plugins\bbpress\templates\default\bbpress, the forum is not displayed anymore then if I move the loop-forums.php from extra to \wp-content\themes\xxx\bbpress it is displayed again.
So yeah, the loop-forums.php isn’t ignored, it changes nothing.
But I checked, they are both different so I don’t understand why they both display the same result … And of course I closed my browser (and I tried to display with Internet Explorer too, cleared cache, …).
But I’m runing my blog on WAMP Server, I’ve no idea if it the issue origin ?
I can’t speak for whether the code works on wamp servers – simply because I have not tested. WAMP and bbpress do have some issues in some cases I understand.
I tried to host it online, WAMP is not the issue.
Still I don’t get how is it possible to display the same thing with a different code …
EDIT : I can say that is not related to my theme neither, I tried with Twenty Fourteen, same problem.
I sent you the url of my site via email in the case you want to take a look, but you can answer there Robin.
Thank you for the support
I haven’t received an email
Well so here is my forum …
Can’t still figure why it doesn’t work …
I’m really stuck with it 🙁
sorry ananotheruser, I just forked some code from elsewhere to offer this as an extra. It works on my test site, so I don’t know why it doesn’t for you.
Is it possible to ask you from where you took the code ? Maybe there would be someone able to help me ?
But thank you anyway I’ll deal with it then. ^^
ok, the original post was
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/make-forum-category-index-page-look-like-topics-page/
but that does say post to the theme directory, so maybe try
\wp-content\themes\brickyard\loop-forums.php
and please let me know if that works
It worked on a new fresh wordpress installaytion. 🙂
Thank you !
Great – I was beginning to doubt my sanity !
Was that in
/wp-content/themes/brickyard/loop-forums.php
or
/wp-content/themes/brickyard/bbpress/loop-forums.php
