    What version of bbPress and what theme you’re using are always helpful. bbPress takes measures to prevent incorrect 404 notices, so it’s likely a theme is resetting those flags afterwards, or it’s a bug.

    I noticed this yesterday. Looks like a bug. Working on a fix.

    @johnjamesjacoby

    Shouldn’t be. If it is, it’s a bug. Are you using the fancy editor, or normal textarea?

    Not sure I understand the problem. Spaces aren’t valid in URLs unless they are encoded.

    You have enough conflicting slugs where I suspect only you can configure your way out of them.

    Could be something with your theme, could be other plugins, or it could be a bug. You’re a bit on your own to narrow things down. I’d start with checking error logs and looking into why the page output stops on the broken links above.

    bbPress 1.1 called those users Bozo’s, though it was often used for spammers, which gave them free-reign on entering content in the database, which was a pretty poor approach.

    Do you still have a physical folder in your filesystem at /forums ? If so, delete it.

    Nice tip. I’m unsure we’ll use such a brute force method since we’ll only want to apply this to bbPress titles, but good to know it’s possible. Though, it’d be better to avoid it being added at all.

    It’s a WordPress core issue, and one I’m not sure we can easily filter out. I’ll take another look at this for 2.2, but I think it’s hard-coded in.

    @johnjamesjacoby

    Anything is possible, but you’ll currently need to write your own widget to make it happen. You’ll most likely want to strip out any formatting, and limit the length also (similar to a WordPress excerpt.)

    If you’re able to make this happen and contribute your changes upstream, it would be a great addition to bbPress core for 2.2.

    Hi Janus. You’ll need to tweak some of your theme’s CSS. bbPress doesn’t currently have a ‘dark-theme’ permutation, so you’ll need to do it yourself, or enlist the help of someone that’s willing to do it for you.

    As far as the reply heights go, your theme is applying some comment styling to your replies. bbPress 2.1.2 comes with some extra CSS to prevent this, but again it’s a CSS issue that you can fix yourself.

    @johnjamesjacoby

    All kinds of things. Everything in bbPress has an action or a filter in it that enables any other plugins to change the output. Is it possible you were customizing template parts inside your active theme? If so, check in your theme’s folder for a /bbpress directory, and see if you changed any files in there.

    The reason there is no shortcode for this, is because it doesn’t usually make sense to display a river of replies out of the context of their parent topics and forums. Hence, there’s no template to support this, because the use-case is most likely custom to the application.

    In the future, we will need to address this so that searching topics and replies has a place to output exactly what makes sense to see, but it sounds like even that isn’t exactly what you’re trying to do.

    I’d recommend you look into writing your own WP_Query or using get_posts() to customize this output yourself. Getting the posts and their data out is easy, then it’s up to you to make it look and work like you need it to.

    Hi. It’s been less than a day, on a weekend. I kindly ask that you please dial back your expectations.

    That said, I can’t duplicate what you’re experiencing, and it would be a great help to have more information to assist you. What theme are you using? Did you customize it? What plugins are you using? Have you tried disabling them to see if there is a conflict?

    Pagination, and adjusting the values, works fine. I’ve set them to ‘5’ at testbp.org so you can see for yourself:

    It’s true, but you can disregard the message. load_plugin_textdomain() unfortunately doesn’t do what we need it to, so we use load_textdomain() instead.

    @johnjamesjacoby

    Delete the /plugins/bbpress folder, and replace it with a fresh download.

    You’ll have better luck asking over in the BuddyPress.org support forums. 🙂

    Looks resolved to me.

    Should not be happening with the bbPress TwentyTen theme unless you have a plugin that’s incorrectly filtering query results.

    @johnjamesjacoby

    Jared was actually incorrect. 🙂

    bbPress actions are piggy-backed on top of WordPress actions, there’s no condition to them.

    1. If you don’t want bbPress to enqueue it’s own CSS, dequeue it, or make sure your theme has /css/bbpress.css in it.
    2. bbPress uses admin-ajax.php for a few ajax bits that happen theme-side. They degrade properly, so if you do not want to include the ajax bits, you can safely unhook that too.

    You’ll need custom templates to do this, lacking any kind of author information. That should really be about it. If you’re not comfortable learning on your own, you’ll need to hire someone to get the job done.

    @johnjamesjacoby

    Here on bbPress.org, I used the forums shortcode, and used CSS to hide a few columns. I did not use bbp_list_forums(), which has a specific purpose outside of what you’re trying to do.

    @johnjamesjacoby

    Sounds like your UAM plugin is misbehaving or is not configured correctly. Anyone with more experience able to chime in?

    @johnjamesjacoby

    Thanks for checking into this. Will be nice to get this figured out.
