I’ve deleted bbpress and reinstalled and every problem persisted. It seemed none of the bbpress data was removed. Although in the add plugins page it tells me bbpress has not been tested with my version of WordPress.
Experiencing the same issue. Posting in hopes that we both get help.
I see that, at least it’s not an isolated issue. I did a similar work around with naming a page forum and using the index short code. We created so many test forums and such when we first had issues that it’s very cluttered. We’re working on limping along using only topics.
Are you on the newest version of wordpress? My theory is it’s either our premium theme or the new WP.
