not sure why this would matter, but made a huge difference

You can also try out the "Members" plugn by Justin Tadlock. I believe it comes with a UI that allows you to map capabilities to each role. Unsure how well it plays with other permissions plugins like Wishlist though.

I manually set one of my "subscriber" level users to "forum participent" and still no luck

is there a way to see the listing of all "capabilities" on the back-end for a user role level?

i've seen them listed in drop downs, but can't recall where to access them and get granular with it.

I setup bbpress and can access both the forum/topic and within topic level as admin
As a subscriber, I can only access the topic listing but can't click into any topics - get 404

All content protection within wishlist member is off for the forums..but I'm still seeing the issue.

I sense it's something to do with permalinks/htaccess...but not quite sure.

Any suggestions?

go to settings -> permalinks -> choose 'Post name under' common settings and save. hope it works.

btw, what theme are you using for your website?

It worked fine, created categories, forums and threads etc... and it functioned just fine. And then now, without making any changes, it randomly 404's and doesnt exist on my site anymore, even though it is there in the WP back end. It simply cant find it.

Even when I click on each individual forum/section in the back end, and click the "VIEW" button to visit that forum, it takes me to the link but its a 404 page and cant find it.

How is it all still there in the back end? But no where to be found, and so randomly? It literally worked great, then woke up the next day and I have problems.

Any help?

Cheers,

Will

SO! The topics and forums are not visible :(

(I've created some pages with shortcodes (ex: http://boldogics.com/home/forums/topic ))

This user was created manually initially (and the user profile worked). Since then I have installed a commercial membership plugin that may have had its hand at work here (although it really shouldn't have).

I've done some further testing and have been able to see that the user_nicename formatting is changed when using a update function of the membership plugin. This is obviously the cause of the issue here.

Is there anywhere that the expected formatting of the user_nicename property is detailed so that I can refer the plugin author to it? Seems the fault lies with their coding.

Thanks for your input & help!

Can you confirm what the user_nicename is for the user you're seeing this issue with? Do you have any other plugins responsible for creating users (Facebook, Twitter) that might not be obeying the expected formatting of user_nicename?

I have installed the bbPress plugin on a few wordpress instances and tend to favour a vanilla install coupled with CSS overrides to provide the look & feel I need.

On a recent install I have spotted an issue with user profiles. When I try and navigate to the user's profile (typically yoursite.com/users/<username>) I am receiving a 404 page from WordPress.

I can browse to another users profile and it resolves fine. The only difference I can see is that the profile which is not working has a username which has spaces e.g. FirstName LastName as opposed to FirstNameLastName.

Has anyone else had this issue and know if its a genuine bug or a "feature"? :P

Cheers, Matt

Tried moving the bbp-twentyten template files into child theme (and adding theme support to functions.php) and everything went haywire.

One thought is to use pages with shortcodes for the child forums, but this site is going to have tons of child forums so that is not an appealing option and would not be user friendly for the client.

Any ideas?

If it makes any difference, this is a buddypress/bbpress plugin install. I have not moved any bbpress files into my child theme.

Thanks to everyone for all the good advice!

It's only a suggestion to just check the source code of your forum index what stylesheets and what scripte are loaded from what source. Then compare it with the calls from the functions.php files. Maybe you can find some issue...

I didn't liked all these combining and integrating so I just added some css rules to my theme stylesheet (most with "!important" but I don't care that much about this...) and left all other on default bbPress which worked best for me :)

Hope this helps a bit, Dave :)

@travishill: The most strange thing has happened.
i once again unchecked "Prefix your forum area with the Forum Base slug"

and the links started working
but at the same time the forums stopped using my custom templates and reverted to the templates from the child bbpress theme

I checked the checkbox back, and the links still work. But the templates did not revert to my custom templates :)

I see that many people in this forum, who have this problem, eventually get it solved, but they cannot explain how :)

Going fishing my template now...

I've also found that I have the "create new topic" form on the specific forum, when I submit the topic I get the page-not-found, but if I navigate back to the forum the new topic is indeed listed.

Any help is MUCH appreciated!

I'd start with plugins. Deactivate and see if anything changes.

If yes, find culprit plugin and remove/find replacement. If no, move to theme related issue.

So the contents of your child theme folder somewhat follows:

/bbpress/
/css/
/js/
archive-*.php
**functions.php
page-*.php
single-*.php
**style.css

And these files all represent files from /bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/{files}?

If so, you've created a PAGE, with either the bbpress shortcode or page template?

Have you tried the bbpress packaged theme?

I don't personally know of any directly conflicting plugins with bbpress, but that doesn't mean that they don't exist. It still seem's URLish to me. .htaccess maybe.

Either way, the last thing you'll want to do, i'm guessing, is a fresh install. We'll try to get you there before that's the (possible) solution.
