    I’ve just tested this with bbPress 2.5.4 and Twenty Fourteen with no other active plugins:

    * Created a page /123 and added the [bbp-forum-form] shortcode
    * Opened that page /123
    * Entered 123 as the forum title and description
    * Selected forum for the forum type
    * Selected open for the forum status
    * Selected Public for forum visibility
    * Selected root for parent forum (Root is another forum I already had setup)
    * Clicked submit and the forum is created and I am redirected to create a new topic in that forum e.g. /forums/forum/root/123/

    A massive copy and paste of your code is not helpful, no one wants to read a wall of code with no formatting, next time use the “code” button in the toolbar to wrap your code so it’s a little easier to read, also only post the specific parts of the code that is relevant.

    Either way, I’m closing this as a duplicate of your other post as that was readable and I’ve answered it. https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/pagination-on-forum-listing-page/

    It could be a plugin conflict or a theme issue, disable all your other plugins and switch to the Twenty Fourteen theme and try again. I tried to access your site using /forums and get redirected to a login plug, so this is what leads me to believe its a conflict somewhere.

    I’ll try some tests on my sites over the weekend and see if I can replicate the issue.

    Seems a little weird, that said using /wp-admin.php to login is not a bbPress thing, sort of, kind of, make sure your not using any plugins that are used for login registration and redirects.

    Further disable ALL your plugins except bbPress and switch to the Twenty Fourteen theme and see if the issue persists, if it still does then create a new participant user and again whilst plugins are disabled and using the Twenty Fourteen theme try again, still no luck try a new keymaster user under the same conditions.

    This really isn’t a bbPress issue, it is more of a WordPress issue.

    Your web host should be able to do some things via firewall rules.

    A good starter doc is https://codex.wordpress.org/Combating_Comment_Spam , conceptually it is the same thing, you have some ‘content’ that spammers want to get in on, in this case rather than comments it’s your bbPress forums and/or topics.

    bbPress uses WordPress user system for user authentication (login registration etc)

    I know it’s probably ideally not what you were looking for but is the state of things.

    A couple more thoughts would be to verify your Akismet API key is valid and Akismet is actually catching what spam it can. I’d also look to adding “capcha” plugin that supports the bbPress, there’s a few of these in WordPress plugin directory.

    Open of the bbPress forums panel in the back end, it looks like that is the name of the forum (it could also be in the forum description), simple edit that and save and you should be done.

    @netweb

    Maybe a permalinks issue, try changing them to something else, hit save, change them back and save again.

    It could also be a plugin conflict or a theme issue, try disabling all your other plugins and switch the Twenty Fourteen theme.

    Check out some of our docs, scroll down past the main headers on the following link and you’ll see some tutorials: https://codex.bbpress.org/

    If you want a capcha for your site search the WordPress plugins for “bbPress Capcha”, there are a couple of these I think from memory.

    Hahahaha… I’m not actually laughing, i do have a big grin though 😉

    That is an IPv6 address, the internet is running out of IPv4 addresses (e.g. 192.168.1.15) and that is what an IPv6 address looks like: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6

    I’ll create a ticket and once I’m back home at my computer and update this with some potential solutions, the good thing though is only keymasters will see this, your users and moderators won’t.

    Check out some of the docs, there’s a link at the top of this page.

    If you don’t want particular widgets in a sidebar remove those widgets, this is not a bbPress issue so we have nothing to fix here.

    If you don’t want a sidebar, use a template from your theme that doesn’t include a sidebar.

    Nice 🙂

    bbPress Forums are limited to 50 forums, you should use some categories…

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    It should rise to the top…

    Do you have a link or screenshot that would help us out?

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Don’t use bbPress login widgets or shortcodes then, use whatever is supplying that form instead, essentially we are all just piggy backing the standard WordPress login form.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Download and install the bbPress Genesis plugin, that should fix things for you.

    First up, a clarification on what you are calling posts; are you inferring users in the back end editing WordPress blog posts? That is sort of how your last reply reads to me. bbPress uses Forums, Topics and Replies and it can get confusing if these terms aren’t explicitly used at times 😉

    When in the back end and you try to restore a trashed topic by clicking restore indeed you will see that error, it’s a know issue and will be fixed in the next release. The workaround is to use the “bulk actions” and select the checkbox next to the topic or topics to restore, select “restore” from the bulk action drop down and click apply.

    If you are seeing that error in the font end it shouldn’t be doing that and should work as expected when restoring topics.

    Either/or try the same again with a new admin/key master user and see if you can still replicate the issue.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Create new topic and per my previous replies, and include the name of the theme. You are using and include the source code of the contents of the bbpress.php file you created.

    disable front end editing

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    That should be working, are you selecting the parent forum and forum type from the drop downs?

    In reply to: sort topics issue

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    These are issues for the ‘Sort replies’ plugin, this is not a bbPress issue, please see that plugins documentation, FAQ or support forum for help with this.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Try creating a new user, assign the participant role and test this yourself.

    Does it work for you?

    What about when you repeat those same steps with a moderator or keymaster role?

    Have any of your other plugins or themes recently updated?

    Have you tried to disabling all your plugins to see if the issue is resolved?

    Have you tried switching the Twenty Fourteen theme to see if the issue persists?

    @netweb

    Cool, it is quite a few and the only real way to boost the performance is more resources, back with my IT hat on, separate hard drive spindles, preferably SSD (or RAM drives) for OS, source DB, destination DB and lots of RAM…

    In reply to: registered users?

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Do you have registration enabled?

    WordPress -> Settings (/wp-admin/options-general.php)

    Membership Membership Anyone can register

    A link to your site or some screenshots would also be helpful…

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    I still stand by the first sentence in my previous post.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Yes, that works 🙂

    Yes it’s ugly 😉

    It’s a start to start to isolate what the root issue is though 🙂

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Yep, sigh, it’s gone for me now to https://i.cloudup.com/CpVrLotdFm.png 🙁
