Hello,

I’m using WP 3.9 and BBpress 2.5.4

1) I see no place to add BBpress plugins or themes inside the wp settings area for Forums.

2) On my forums there is no “Add Topic” button or form so how do people create new topics inside the forum?

Please advise/help!

Thanks
Joe

1. bbpress plugins add exactly as normal wordpress plugins

Dashboard>plugins

Bbpress will try and use your theme, you may want to visit the set up guides

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

2. depending on your theme, you should see the ability to add a topic at the end of each forum.

You can add a ‘topic’ add in your sidebar using the text widget and putting

<a href="/add-new-topic/">Create a new topic</a>

in the text
