Hi all! I downloaded the bbPress plugin to create a forum. I followed all steps to set the forum up (by wpbeginner) but it seems that I can't connect it? I land on a "forbidden

Yes it's that's the one I followed. But I can't find anything about how to connect it all the right way :-)

Set up bbPress: Once activated, you'll see a new menu item called "Forums" in your WordPress dashboard. Click on it and follow the on-screen prompts to set up your forum. You'll be asked to configure forum settings, such as the forum's title, forum root slug, and other options.

Create forum pages: bbPress requires specific pages to display the forum content. By default, bbPress creates these pages for you. However, you may need to create them if they don't exist manually. Go to "Pages" > "Add New" and create the following pages:

Forums: This page will display a list of forums.
Topics: This page will display a list of topics within a forum.
Topic: This page will display an individual topic and its replies.
Configure forum settings: Go to "Settings" > "Forums" to configure additional settings for bbPress. Here you can customize forum capabilities, forum display options, user settings, and more according to your requirements.

Thanks! Testing :-)

How do I make the featured image not showing when I open the very post? Now it is shown twice since I use a f. im. thats already in the post, and it's disturbing and ugly. If y

Abie has given you some very good advice and guidance here…let us know if you have any further questions.

Will do :-)

You need to copy and paste below in your additional CSS via Appearance > Customize of your WordPress sites back office, of course publish changes.

.single .featured-image {
display: none !important;
}

Thanks Abie! I'll try it :-)

No problem :)

No it didn't work! I followed you exactly. Published, updated and even checked in an incognito window 🤔 Something else to add in the CSS?

Can it be the theme that limits the use of CSS code? I'm testing Ocean Blog 'cuz it seems light, fast and good. Maybe I shall change?

You may try to change the theme, as some may have limitations. However, the above procedure does work for sure.

Changed to Generate Press and it worked totally. Thanks again :-)

You're welcome :)

So that the eventual visitor can choose only to read about individual subjects. Is there any cool plugin for that?
Have a nice day :-)

You need to assign one or more categories to each blog post (and untick Uncategorized). Then you can have a Categories item in your header menu. Have a look at

Thanks Phil! Solved it.
