Thanks for the info as well as the Plugin Link – we’ll certainly take a look at those and update everyone here if we decide to go with a different Forum Plugin.
We will share our Forum Page in a separate private reply for you to review.
thanks again
CLARIFICATION:
We understand that Cera theme uses the bbPress Plugin — we wouldn’t REPLACE the bbPress Plugin but simply ADD a new Forum Plugin and use it instead of bbPress. Just wanted to clarify that we don’t need to replace bbPress – but simply use a different Forum Plugin instead.Would this be a viable option as opposed to going with a Child Theme?
Hmmm…. okay — I think I understand – but seems REALLY strange that your themes have deep customization features but VIRTUALLY none for the FORUMS!!!
In fact – the current Cera forum page is VERY DATED and NOT VISUALLY APPEALING AT ALL! Perhaps something your Dev folks can look into for FUTURE updates. It almost seems that the Forum Page was an afterthought — but as you know almost all use cases for WordPress rely heavily on robust features and customization for Forum Pages.
Anyway – we’re considering a slightly different approach than going with a Child Theme as Child Themes are considered POOR approach for modern WordPress installations.
We would PREFER to simply go with a Forum Plugin instead – that is if we can find one that is compatible with Cera Theme or at worse case does not conflict or break other parts of the Cera Theme. This of course would mean that we would NOT use the Cera Forum Page at all.
Any thoughts on this approach?
First off – we purchased the Cera Theme and are using the Youzify demo layout which your website says is FULLY compatible and supported for Elementor and Elementor Pro.
Also – we looked at the options in bbPress–>settings and it provides very limited ability to customize the Forum Page.
We need to create a NEW page layout – which bbPress says is possible – but we need guidance from Themosaurus since this is YOUR theme.
Info on the bbPress website indicates that it is possible to create a custom layout for bbPress Forum Page.
Also your response to a similar question that someone asked seemed to indicate that you would have to set the primary Page Editor for bbPress to Elementor in order to create a custom page.So to clarify we want to CREATE a new custom forum page as it seems this will be the best option for getting the layout/design we need.
