    You need to also use the bbPress WPML plugin, you need to ask WPML for a copy of the plugin as it it is not publicly available.

    See http://wpml.org/forums/topic/bbpress-multilingual-plugin-2/

    Don’t use WP_DEBUG i.e. define('WP_DEBUG', false); in your wp-cong.php file is the simple answer.

    It will be one of your plugins ‘doing it wrong’

    For more technical details on the error see any/all of this tickets 😉 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/24169

    Oh, my bad, the plugin description is “This is a simple plugin that adds a recaptcha validation to the bbPress 2.0 topic creation and topic reply forum.” so it is not actually a recaptcha for the login page 😉

    bbpress.org is hooked into wordpress.org so spam bots are handled by the WordPress team 😉

    Have another look through the WordPress plugins for one that does what you require, there are a quite a few of them.

    I just tested using [bbp-forum-index] and [bbp-topic-index] on a page and it worked fine for me.

    Are you using a plugin to make the forums private or is it just a bbPress forum set to private?

    Can you switch to the Twenty Fourteen theme and refresh your page and see if that works and/or disable all your other plugins to check for a conflict.

    I just installed the current version 1.5.3 and have no issues

    This Fatal error: Call to undefined function bbp_get_topic_post_type(), are you sure bbPress is activated?

    No problem, and your site is looking good 🙂

    If you wanted to have a ‘Featured’ view, tag any topic ‘featured’ and change the Tag example view above:
    bbp_register_view( 'featured', __( 'Featured Books' ), array( 'topic-tag' => 'featured' ) );

    This will do what you after https://gist.github.com/ntwb/8167699 🙂

    Pick and choose what you want and remove the rest

    Update to bbPress 2.5.4 that was just released and then run each of the bbPress repair tools

    Dashboard -> Tools -> Forums

    (Though it looks like you may have already done that now)

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    This is now fixed and resolved in bbPress 2.5.4, download the update and run the bbPress Repair Tool “Recalculate the reply position of replies” and that should fix the issue.

    @netweb

    I’m really not sure what else I can suggest, my recommendation still stands to upgrade WordPrress and bbPress to the latest versions.

    The only other suggestion that ‘may’ work when using bbPress 2.5.4 without the Thesis Theme compat is to add a bbPress wrapper template in your theme directory that may stop issue 2 from occurring.

    Try creating a file in the root of your theme called bbpress.php and putting the following code into it

    
    <?php
    /**
     * bbPress wrapper template.
     
     */
    
    get_header(); ?>
    
    <?php while( have_posts() ): the_post(); ?>
    
    	<?php the_content(); ?>
    
    <?php endwhile; ?>
    
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    What version of vBulletin 3 did you import from?

    The vBulletin 3 importer hasn’t had a great deal of testing, a quick look at the database I have here is v3.6.4

    During the import did the status update showing that your ’86 forums, 12,000 threads, 346,000 replies” had been imported or are they just the stats from the vBulletin stats? (Trying to determine if you they actually all were imported or not)

    bbPress and BuddyPress include the pagination at the top and bottom by default.

    Your custom theme appears to not do that, most likely the template you need to edit is either content-single-topic.php or content-single-topic-lead.php and look for something similar to:

    
    <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'replies' ); ?>
    
    <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop',       'replies' ); ?>
    

    And change that to:

    
    <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'replies' ); ?>
    
    <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop',       'replies' ); ?>
    
    <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'replies' ); ?>
    

    If your not comfortable doing that then contact the theme author for details.

    Ok, that looks like the same issue with the avatars that I mentioned the other day, you need to apply that same fix.

    Once you do that the layout improves and you will see that the # is part of the topic permalink.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    That will not work on it’s own, it was part of the original code that @Lynq did for http://teamoverpowered.com/forums/

    You would probably be best of setting up @Lynq’s solution and then tweaking the changes you want.

    I’d suggest using a plugin rather than reCaptcha directly

    There are a few various anti-spam, anti-bot, captcha type plugins available that work with bbPress in WordPress plugin repo https://wordpress.org/plugins/

    e.g. https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-recaptcha/

    Can you please create a ticket in bbPress’ Trac and we can take a closer look at this.

    https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/

    If you have a link to the discussion you had with Royal Slider please also include that, thanks.

    A link to your site and or screenshot would be helpful 🙂

    If your users copy and paste the Photobucket ‘direct url’ to a topic or reply on a new line by itself the the link will be automatically added.

    If you want to use the IMG tag then <img src="http://example.com/example.jpg" /> is what you need, note the IMG tag uses < and not [/]

    I just downloaded the Spacious theme… Oh wait… Not related. If you use WordPress 4.0.x (Any alpha or beta of the next version of WordPress) bbPress will not work, we are currently investigating this.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Cool, glad you found a solution but just FYI, please don’t bump any topics older than 12 months 😉

    Sorry but you only asked how to reset bbPress 1 day 3 hours ago as I write this :/

    I’d suggest setting up a test install and see if you still have the same issue, you can then compare the settings between both sites.

    @netweb

    Thanks for the detailed info @jbroskos, I agree things look correct there, but obviously are not working as expected.

    If you do find the issue later on down the road let us know with some detailed reproduction steps and we can fix the issue once we can reproduce it https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ 🙂

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Oh! Ok, strange decision not to update where said updates may actually fix your issues so I’m not sure what we can do here to help out and I’d suggest you mention that if you are being asked to ‘fix things’ that could have already been fixed in newer versions, not specifically saying the issues have been fixed but there are vast improvements nevertheless.

    I am not aware of any specific Thesis compatability issues, might be something to research through the Thesis community support forums, again you might find the latest Thesis compatability pack supports bbPress 2.5.x and have to roll back a version that works with bbPress 2.4.x.

    I haven’t used s2member so I really cannot advise how best to do anything with it 😉

    You could take a look at this plugin that when viewing a users profile in the backend will show you each of the bbPress capabilities assigned to a user that may help you narrow down the issues.
