We aim to make bbPress bbPress as accessible as possible, if some #a11y feature doesn’t work as expected let us know and we’ll work it resolving it 🙂
In a nutshell you cannot, it is shared with your wordpress.org account
Hmmm… This might even be a BuddyPress issue, or rather how bbPress and BuddyPress integrate mentions, @lovechard what happens when you click on your @lovechard mention here?
I didn’t know Kunena 4 had been released, will try to take a look at copying the Kunena 3 importer and updating it for Kunena 4 when I get some time to spare.
Excellent, thanks for helping out 🙂
Actually, it looks like it has worked, signing in per the link I just posted should work
Hmmmm….
Could you try logging into https://codex.bbpress.org/wp-login.php before opening the email link, see if that works please?
Apologies @vinod-dalvi, I’ve sent an invite via email for editor access
Great tip @kriskl, also I’d suggest maybe adding the Akismet plugin
@kriskl, we’ve not tagged an RC4 release, we probably should, stay tuned 🙂
I see you found the correct forum for the bbp-messages plugin 🙂
So, yeah, not a bbPress issue 🙂

@peterwsterling Can you add a copy of the exact code you’re using please?
Maybe BuddyPress can do this, it can for sure created groups for you and group forums for those groups, as to attachments in those topics I’m not sure what plugins are out there for this but I’d expect any attachment plugin that works with groups of users and bbPress topics should protect those attachments from unauthorised viewing.
I think you should contact the plugin author of the plugin you are using now to facilitate this functionality, I’m quite sure they’ll be grateful for being informed that there plugin is not working as expected, you might even get lucky and the author fixes the plugin so it does protect those attachments 🙂
I’ve no idea what that plugin is, I suspect however though that this will be an issue with that plugin, if that plugin is “leaking” sensitive information from within a “protected” topic that this plugin “protects” from Google then this will be an issue for that plugin and not bbPress.
bbPress doesn’t include any “groups” functionality out of the box, groups functionality is typically added by way of plugins of which BuddyPress is one such plugin.
So are you using a plugin to add “groups” functionality to bbPress, if so which one?
If not, could you explain how you are grouping and how you are protecting those topics from Google in the first place please.
For sure there will be issues for sure with bbPress and ~2000 forums, it wasn’t designed for this many forums, it’s also more often than not not a good idea to have this many forums.
Categorising the forums into a more hierarchical layout is usually far more friendly for admins, mods, and users. For example break down the UK to England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, then further break them down, under Scotland you’d have Aberdeenshire, Dumfries and Galloway and so on….
This I’m guessing this is when using BuddyPress?
If so this should be asked on https://buddypress.org/support
Great idea, @tkserver you can sign up for the WordPress development Slack here:

There are plugins that can share content across sites.
*But* I still don’t think in the scenario you’ve outlined that multisite is the answer, using one of the membership plugins should be able to “fence off” the content to different “user groups” on a single WordPress site.
You can’t do that, that would be “content sharing across sites” which is one of the things Mika points out in the video.
If you edit a topic in the backend if you start typing topic tags in the meta box you’ll see autocomplete in action, it’s just not enabled on the front end, with large scale forums autocompletion will have scaling issues
I’ve removed the username and password from your post @torpeyisgod
Giving others access to your site rarely helps solve any issue, at best it would show that someone else can confirm the issue you have but will still be unable to resolve it 🙂
It looks like there is no form at http://www.iron-bru.co.uk/login/ (Using Chrome)
I’d suggest quickly switching your theme to one of the Twenty themes, Twenty Fifteen for example and seeing if you can login with IE then, if not switch your theme back.
If not resolved deactivate all your plugins and try logging in again, then activate each plugin one by one until you find the conflicting plugin.
I didnt know there was a multisite plugin for bbpress, ill have to check into that.
Not a plugin, multisite compatibility is built into bbPress, you don’t need any other plugins for multisite compat 🙂
As Mika points out sharing content or menus across sites is problematic at best
I think taking a look at a few of the many resources on “memberships plugins” here:
* http://chrislema.com/memberships-plugins/
There’s some good round ups of how these plugins work in restricting access to content…
FWIW, bbPress is 100% multisite compatible, either activated per site, or site wide as a “mu-plugin”, it’s just not for the faint of heart, so if you want to take a stab at using multisite then have at it and see if it can work the way you envisage 🙂
I think attempting to use multisite in this instance is over complicating things…
Take a look at this video on one of WordPress’ multisite experts 🙂
Using one of the “membership” (Members, S2, Restrict Content Pro, Users, etc etc) type plugins along with groups would be the way to go I think.
