Okay, I have a solution for disabling the featured image on the bbPress forum index. I added the following code to the functions.php:
function ja_remove_bbp_image() { if ( is_bbpress() ) { remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'going_green_featured_photo', 5 ); } } add_action( 'genesis_before', 'ja_remove_bbp_image' );Solution courtesy of Jared Atchison here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/featured-image-90?replies=2#post-4658815
So the featured image is not hidden on that forum index page. Yay!
I deleted it from the Media Library.
I then deleted the RSS icon, and it picked up a Twitter icon. All three of these were old images no longer used.
So then I created a replacement image with the same name as the twitter icon, and uploaded that using FTP, overwriting the original icon:

This is a total cludge, but I'm okay with that for now. The only problem is that Jetpack Photon (which I use for image caching, is still caching the old Twitter icon. Reading their docs (http://jetpack.me/support/photon/) images are cached "forever" and the only way to clear the cache is to rename the image.
So... I went into phpmyadmin and changed the image URL. Now it's showing the "correct" image. But it's still voodoo black magic.
There has got to be a better way.
Thanks Anitac. Interesting about the 92% in the demo. I double checked the original ZIP download of the theme and it has it at 90% (which I did not change). I've added that change and it's working in Firefox now.
I've seen that post in the bbPress forums. I'm not actually looking to add images to forums, but to control the image that is on the index page (the list of all forums).
To be super-clear:
This is the forum index: http://socalhiker.net/community/
It is displaying a featured image, but I don't have any clue where it's getting it from.This is a sample forum: http://socalhiker.net/community/forum/got-a-question/
It is not displaying a featured image, and I'm fine with that.
Anitac, I use Chrome as my default, and the sidebar shows correctly there. I have previously tested Firefox and Safari and it was working, but after you mentioned that, I tested FF and sure enough -- the sidebar is pushed down below. I'm digging into it now.
The other CSS didn't work. What I'm really hoping for is to find out how to actually SPECIFY a featured image for the forum index; not just hide it.
Thanks Merlin. I've used a slider on the home page in the past, but it seemed to get a little stale. I know that sounds odd, but I'm updating the content 2-3 times a week, and that keeps things fresh.
I still have an issue with the new Going Green theme and IE8. There appear to be ways to fix this, but ought to be part of the Going Green theme.
Thanks kriskl, but no luck. I've updated bbPress Genesis Extend to the latest version (1.0) but still get the same error.
The line it refers to relates to HTML5 compatibility, so I suspect there is something going on there with the bbPress interaction.
Thanks anitac. While that inserts the buttons, that's not where I want them, and it duplicates the buttons on posts and pages. I think what I need to do is write a function that uses a bbPress hook. Unfortunately, the bbPress hooks are not well documented in the codex.
