 * Ok. So the Impreza Theme offers font styling for bbPress, and you’re using those
   settings for fonts instead of using Style Pack for fonts.
 * Tha lazy/easy answer is: Just use Style Pack for your font styles instead of 
   the theme. Problem solved.
 * The better answer/solution is: For Style Pack to account for your theme’s font
   settings, and either:
 *  1.) Apply those to Style Pack as the new “bbPress default”.
 * or
 * 2.) Don’t include those fonts as part of the generated CSS for Style Pack.
 * Either option has a few potential issues to figure out, and I’m undecided which
   option is the best approach right now.
 * Option #1 would require you to regenerate the CSS file any time you change font
   values in your theme.
 * Option #2 may involve a lot of extra code for a not-so-common feature and unnecessarily
   complicate future updates.
 * Later today I will install Impreza Theme and see what font values it offers, 
   and then I will work on an update for Style Pack to make sure any theme values
   you have set get the priority.

 * There are no font size options in bbPress settings – Settings > Forums (/wp-admin/
   options-general.php?page=bbpress).
 * So, where/how are you changing the default font sizes for bbPress? Within a specific
   theme (like you mentioned… and if so, which theme are you using)? With custom
   hooks/filters? Where/how are you overriding the default bbPress font settings?

 * That is the default. No settings exist except for the ones you select. Everything
   is disabled by default.
 * NOTHING should be active by default and bbPress should look and function exactly
   as it was prior to activating Style Pack.
 * Are there any specific settings active on Style Pack activation that you’re referring
   to? If so, let us know and we’ll look into it.

 * OK. Good to know! If there are any specific bbPress strings you want to set translations
   for not currently present within the Style Pack template files, let me know and
   we can add them so you can do your personalized translations for them.
 * I hope to have the translation update done by this weekend. Once it’s kicked 
   out, you’ll want to re-sync your custom translation file for Style Pack.
 * Marking this as resolved, but feel free to post any translation issues you run

 * Out of curiosity, are your translations “equivalent” to the English word(s), 
   or are you using “custom” word(s) that you prefer better than a direct translation?

 * There are translation plugins that can handle “on-the-fly” translations site-
   wide (Style Pack can do this in the “Translations” tab, but it is limited).
 * As LocoTranslate allows you to work on translation files PER PLUGIN, that’s how
   translation strings are handled: per plugin. Changing any translation strings
   there will only affect the specific plugin’s .pot/.po/.mo files, but has zero
   effect on any other plugin.
 * That’s why I mentioned writing a custom script to do so. Manually making those
   changes could be a daunting and time-consuming task. I will keep thinking about
   a solution that will prevent the need for manual edits and see what I can come
   up with.
 * **A warning for custom translations too:**
 * When a plugin is updated, so is the included translation files. If bbPress releases
   a new version, the translation files included within the new bbPress version 
   will overwrite the custom ones you currently have. Make a backup! And you’d have
   to reapply your customizations to the new plugin version too. Using a diff tool(
   like Meld) will help, but it’s still a bit of a pain.

      Reason: Added translation warning

 * [@maksanse](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maksanse/) – Using your specific
   example of the “Submit” string – As it currently stands, yes, bbPress is being
   overridden. I’m sure there are many other cases where that’s true as well. There
   is also no way to choose which translation file has priority either, and I’m 
   not sure there’s a good solution for that.
 * The reason for it is due to Style Pack overriding the default bbPress templates(
   using Style Pack files). Therefore the bbPress translations (using bbPress files)
   won’t have any references to any Style Pack file translation strings (and vise-
   versa).
 * I’ve actually been working on a translation overhaul for about 3 weeks now. I
   hope to release it in the near future. The main goal is to make strings machine-
   translation-friendly, and to ship Style Pack with 10-20+ machine translations
   to cover many languages, and be able to add more quickly/easily as requested.
   Strings that both bbPress and Style Pack have in common should already “match”
   for each language. With that said, let me know any specific languages you would
   like to see included.
 * I will give this some thought, but I don’t know of a good way to accomplish your
   desired outcome of using bbPress translations instead of Style Pack translations,
   or to migrate bbPress translations over to Style Pack. Only thing to comes to
   mind is to write a custom script that will read the values specified within your
   custom bbPress translation files and then apply those values to any matching 
   string within Style Pack files. Considering you’re the first person to bring 
   this up, I’m not sure how many others would want/need that capability….but I’m
   willing to consider something like that if it makes sense. Always open to suggestions
   and ideas if you have any!

 * [@blinkweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/blinkweb/) – An official fix 
   for this will be released this weekend. Marking as resolved, but if you still
   encounter issues after the update, feel free to update this topic.
 * **Details:**
 * The issue actually had nothing to do with Divi theme. The exact issue is that
   on the “Freshness Display” tab you had “**Custom**” selected for “**Date Format**”
   and “**Time Format**“, but you left the text boxes empty instead of specifying
   your desired custom format.
 * The fix that will be released this weekend will default to using the default 
   format any time “Custom” is selected, but left empty, like in your case.
 * In the meantime, you could select ANY of the pre-specified formats for Date/Time
   instead of “Custom”, which will then allow you to use your preferred “Hybrid”
   option for #**6. Freshness format**

 * **Temporary Immediate Fix:**
 * In the “Freshness Display” tab ( /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbp-style-
   pack&tab=freshness ), change **6. Freshness format** from “Hybrid” to “Default”.
 * That will hold you over until an official fix is released. [@robin-w](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robin-w/)
   is planning to release a compatibility update for Astra theme later today (5.5.2)
   and I’m not sure I’ll have the code fix done for this today… so the fix for this
   will probably be in the following update (5.5.3).

 * [@blinkweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/blinkweb/) – Thank you for confirming
   the connection of this issue with Style Pack, but the cause of the issue isn’t
   clear. What I can deduce is that it has to do with “freshness” and specifically
   with the “Divi” theme. Let’s try to narrow it down some more.
 * With Style Pack active, can you go to the “Export Plugin Settings” tab ( /wp-
   admin/options-general.php?page=bbp-style-pack&tab=export ) and save a local copy
   for yourself, and email me with the export file as well? [codejp3@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codejp3/replies/page/14/codejp3@gmail.com?output_format=md)
 * There is no personal or private info in that export. Just values for your Style
   Pack settings.
 * I’m going to try to replicate the issue again using your exact plugin settings.
   We’ll go from there.

   >  [@blinkweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/blinkweb/)
 * Are you sure you’re not using custom pages with shortcodes?
 * Your Navigation Menu link points to:
 * [https://emgs.org/forum-temp/](https://emgs.org/forum-temp/)
 * But your breadcrumb for the forum root points to:
 * [https://emgs.org/members-forum/](https://emgs.org/members-forum/)
 * And BOTH URLs display identical content.
 * You should only be using one link for your forum root content. Having 2 links
   pointing to identical content is horrible practice that search engines will hold
   against you and rank you lower because of it. Plus it can confuse your members
   due to multiple links pointing to the same content.
 * Which one is the slug specified for “Forum Root” in the in bbPress settings (/
   wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress) ?
 * My guess is “members-forum” is the correct one, which indicates that you have
   created a custom page with the slug “forum-temp” and uses and embedded shortcode.
 * The slug specified as the “Forum Root” is the one you should be using in your
   nav menu (probably “/members-forum/”). The duplicate link should be deleted/removed
   altogether (probably “/forum-temp/”).
 * Clicking on the “Forum Notes” forum points to:
 * [https://emgs.org/members-forum/Forum/forum-notes/](https://emgs.org/members-forum/Forum/forum-notes/)
 * The breadcumb shows:
 * Home Icon › Members Forum › Forum Notes
 * Clicking “Members Forum” in that breadcrumb takes me to:
 * [https://emgs.org/members-forum/](https://emgs.org/members-forum/)
 * That pretty much confirms that /forum-temp/ is the one that needs to be deleted
   and no longer used and that /members-forum/ is the one that should be in your
   navigation menu.
 * Also, all of your slugs should ideally be lowercase …
 * [https://emgs.org/members-forum/](https://emgs.org/members-forum/)**Forum**/forum-
   notes/
 * … So the slug for “Forum” in “Forum Single Slugs” (/wp-admin/options-general.
   php?page=bbpress) should be changed from “Forum” to “forum”. It looks fine for
   topics, but if any others are capitalized there, change them to lowercase as 
   well.
 * You have some URL/slug/link issues like these mentioned here. Fixing them will
   certainly help and improve your site, but none of these changes will fix the 
   issue you mentioned in this topic. I just noticed these issues as I was browsing
   your site and wanted to pass on the info so your site doesn’t keep getting ranked
   lower by search engines.

   your reply for the [post above](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/style-pack-issue/#post-16707623),

 * OK. I can see the issue on your site. I’m not sure that is the issue is related
   to Style Pack though.
 * Try this for me:
 * 1.) put your site into maintenance mode so the public doesn’t see you messing
   with it.
 * 2.) Disable Style Pack.
 * 3.) Refresh the forum pages that have the issue and take note whether the problem
   is fixed or the problem persists.
 * 4.) If the problem persists, head over to bbPress tools and do a “**Recalculate
   last activity in each topic and forum**” repair.
 * 5.) Refresh the forum pages again that have the issue and see if the problem 
   is fixed or still persists.
 * 6.) Re-enable Style Pack
 * 7.) Take your site out of maintenance mode so that it’s live again.
 * 8.) Report back here with the results.
 * If the problem still persists after getting through steps 1-5, then the issue
   is not with Style Pack. In that case, I may be able to offer other suggestions
   of things to try, but there’s nothing we can do with Style Pack to fix it for
   you.

 * [@blinkweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/blinkweb/) – Here’s what I’ve
   tried on my test server:
 * I had several forums/subforums with old topics/replies already in them. That 
   should simulate the “old” topics/replies.
 * I installed Divi theme version 4.21.0 using all default settings for the theme.
 * I then activated Style Pack version 5.5.0 and updated it to 5.5.1. The topics/
   replies on the index displayed properly.
 * I then created some new topics/replies within those forums/subforums and the 
   index still displayed properly.
 * Then I tried by installing Style Pack 5.4.7 and updated it to 5.5.1. The topics/
   replies on the index displayed properly.
 * Just for good measure, I created some new topics/replies within those forums/
   subforums and the index still displayed properly.
 * SO….
 * I can’t replicate the issue you describe on my test server. which brings me back
   to the clarifying information both myself and [@robin-w](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robin-w/)
   asked:
 * 1.) Does the issue exist with all forums, or only forums where there’s been new
   topics/replies after the Style Pack update?
 * 2.) Does the issue exist with the primary forum/topic index pages, or is the 
   issue happening with shortcodes/widgets that you’re using?
 * 3.) Do you have a link you can provide that shows the issue in-action? You can
   email it privately to me at [codejp3@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codejp3/replies/page/14/codejp3@gmail.com?output_format=md)
   if you prefer.
 * 4.) Did the issue clearly and immediately happen after updating Style Pack **
   with no other site changes**, or were there multiple changes applied to your 
   site at the same time?
 * 5.) Have you specifically used the bbPress tools (/wp-admin/tools.php?page=bbp-
   repair) for:
   “**Recalculate parent topic for each reply**“, “**Recalculate parent
   forum for each topic and reply**“, “**Recalculate last activity in each topic
   and forum**“, “**Recount topics in each forum**“, “**Recount replies in each 
   forum**“, and “**Recount replies in each topic**“, and most importantly:**ONE
   REPAIR AT A TIME !! **( I’ve noticed that when you do multiple repairs, they 
   don’t always get performed, so ONE AT A TIME is the way to do it).
