Cannot add forum to Menu navigation

    I cannot seem to add a Forum link to my main navigation menu. When I attempt to do this the link is not added to the menu structure and the site defaults to no menu being selected under menu locations. Please advise.

    can you add any other links??

    and i dont think bbpress would cause a problem in the menus section in wordpress.

    Actually, when the bbPress plugin is activated I cannot make any Menu item changes at all.

    have you deactivated every plugin you have one at a time to see if its another plugin causing the issue

    if you havent check on that just to make sure

    if you have already done this and are positive it is bbpress absolutely causing the problem, please also tell us

    what wordpress version you are using
    what theme you use
    and maybe a list of plugins

    so i could see if i could recreate the problem

    I tried deactivating the other plugins but this did not help. It definitely seems to be related to the bbpress plugin. I’m using the latest version of WP. I’m trying to migrate an existing site http://colonclub.com over to a new host. The current site uses phpBB forum but we would like to switch to bbpress if possible. I can provide you with a login to check things out if that helps.

    wordpress has it where you can send the login data to a new user , when you register one in the backend.

    Turns out that I was having an issue with a limit on the number of custom menu items. The limit of menu items in WordPress is 90. When I activated bbpress and tried to add my forums I had exceeded the limit of menu items and was therefore unable to add my forums to the site navigation. There is a fix for this.

    Create a php.ini file and place it in in “wp-admin” folder then add:

    Put the following in your php.ini file:
    max_input_vars = 3000;
