    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.

    Why do I still see a topic from 3 days 18 hours ago if you reset bbPress?

    @netweb

    Firstly why not update to WordPress v3.9.1 and bbPress v2.5.3?

    The ‘edit’ issue is most likely a plugin conflict, start deactivating plugins one by one until the issue goes away then enable the other plugins you disabled and research any known issues with the plugin causing the problem.

    As to the s2member issue, you are going to have to meticulously go through each of the role settings and confirm what permissions are be given to each s2member and bbPress roles to work out whats what.

    Hmmm… What you have outlined sounds like it should be working.

    The one bit I am not sure about is you appear to only be describing WordPress roles and not also including bbPress’ roles in your description above.

    Have you run the bbPress Repair Tool “Remap existing users to default forum roles”?(Tools->Forum)

    This will set the users their bbPress role. The default role is Participant (You can change the default role via bbPress settings)

    As outlined in the roles docs the bbPress role Particpant role includes the capability read_private_forums which in effect means any private forums can be read by users who are logged in, this would include your members and officers WordPress roles if you assign these WordPress role users the bbPress Participant role. If you assign your Officers WordPress role the bbPress Moderator role they will be able to read hidden forums because they have the read_hidden_forums bbPress capability.

    You got caught by the Akismet spam filter 🙁

    Anyways to answer your question, no, at this stage this cannot be done.

    We have a few areas in bbPress we would like to be able to add ‘Bulk Edit’ to in the backend but we need some enhancements to WordPress be implemented upstream first.

    Run the ‘Reset Forums’ tool which will delete all bbPress content, forums, topics, replies, settings, everything will be deleted.

    Tools -> Forums -> Reset bbPress

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    It is not helpful, there have been vast changes to bbPress codebase since those posts and will only further confuse things.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Ryan, firstly please stop bumping old topics, create a new topics please.

    I would first try running the bbPress repair tools to see if that fixes it (Tools -> Forums)

    @netweb

    Here is Robin’s code updated to only show the website if it is not blank:

    
    function user_profile_bbp_website_information()	{
    //this function adds the website to the profile display menu
    	$url=bbp_get_displayed_user_field( 'user_url' ) ;
    	if ( ! empty($url) ) {
    		$label1 =  $rpi_options['item1_label'] ;
    		echo "<p>" ;
    		printf ( __( 'Website : ', 'bbpress' ));
    		$url='<a href="'.$url.'">'.$url.'</a>';
    		echo $url;
    		echo"</p>" ;
    	}
    }
    add_action ('bbp_template_after_user_profile', 'user_profile_bbp_website_information') ;
    

    To add the location you want to add this, this will add the field to their profile so they can edit and update it, you then just duplicate the code from either Robin’s or mine and replace $url with $location and user_url with location:

    
    function ntwb_user_contact_methods_location( $user_contact ){
    
    	/* Add user contact methods */
    	$user_contact['location'] = __('Location');
    
    	return $user_contact;
    }
    add_filter('user_contactmethods', 'ntwb_user_contact_methods_location');

    I should have said the ‘bbPress templates’ in your Twenty Eleven theme

    <link rel="stylesheet" id="bbp-child-bbpress-css" href="http://www.assorpas.it/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/css/bbpress.css?ver=2.3.2" type="text/css" media="screen">

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    I see it all in the <head> section of the HTML source of your site.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    OK, I am with you now and by the way there is no such thing as a stupid question 🙂

    You should see a ‘reply’ link but when I look at your forum you are using WordPress 3.5.1, Twenty Eleven theme, a Twenty Eleven bbPress child theme and bbPress v 2.3.2. You also have other plugins modifying/extending the Twenty Eleven theme.

    Why are you using old versions? Many of these modifications will be the primary cause of your issues and upgrading all of these and even a newer theme would fix most of your issues.

    That is the first thing I would do, update to WordPress 3.9.1 and bbPress 2.5.3

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    No, we use the same version, I think we may have our terminology crossed.

    If you want the topic displayed at the top of every page like we do here so that you can still see the original topic when you are page 3 for example you want to use bbp_show_lead_topic

    See the following article and add that code to your themes functions.php file.
    (I think this is what you are after 🙂 )

    bbp_show_lead_topic

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Sorry, it is one or the other at this stage, you cannot have both.

    Enable threaded replies and exclude pagination OR Disable threaded replies and include pagination.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Ha! Lets not hijack this topic any further, I updated my stance (or lack of) here 😉

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Mine didn’t have “Website: ” now it does 😉 yours should also be ‘Website : ‘ (i.e. Capital W) 😉

    It won’t be a link in a new window (i.e. target="_blank"), a big pet peeve of my mine, see this for more background on when to and not to use it.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Oh! Hehehe 😉 Always more than one way to do things in WordPress 🙂

    There is actually a patch to add this permanently to bbPress 2.6

    https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2570

    Do you think this is a good idea?

    Should it be an active hyperlink or plain text? (I just realised my patch is only plain text)

    Anyway, for now here is the patch as a plugin https://gist.github.com/ntwb/a19b187f2170235f16bf
    (The extra HTML markup should match it to the existing profile fields for most themes)

    Note: If this is shipped with bbPress 2.6 you will then see two profile fields 😉

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    bbPress doesn’t actually create any WordPress pages.

    You should be able to create a page titled ‘forums’ add the shortcode and bbPress will use that page.

    If you can only create a page with the slug forums-2 then there is another page using the forums slug or is in the trash.

    @netweb

    There must be ‘something different’ are you sure they are in the same forum?

    Check the actual CSS class differences between one that works and one that does not.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    I also cannot access the screenshots you posted, the site never loads the images and I cannott download theme either.

    That said, I suspect you have ‘Threaded Replies’ enabled, if that is the case there is no topic pagination when ‘Threaded Replies’ are enabled.

    This is most likely an avatar plugin:

    eg
    <img src="http://www.passingrass.com/wp-content/uploads/avatars/460/5ed932eb9e1a5b11af2d1b9e7029b68e-bpthumb.jpg" class="avatar user-460-avatar avatar-20 photo" width="20" height="20" alt="Profile picture of PassinGrass">

    And or your themes CSS at Line #1044
    http://www.passingrass.com/wp-content/themes/sweetdate/custom_buddypress/_inc/css/default.css?ver=20140430

    table.forum td img.avatar {
    float: none;
    margin: 0 5px -8px 0;
    }

    A quick change of that to the following fixes it:

    table.forum td img.avatar {
    float: none;
    margin: 0 5px -8px 0;
    width: 20px;
    }

    You’ll want to find out if it is the plugin or theme and find a more permanent way to keep those changes such as creating a child theme.

    Try running the bbPress Repair Tools -> Tools -> Forums

    Also switch to the Twenty Thirteen theme to see if you can see the topics.

    Disable all your plugins except bbPress and see if you can see the topics.

    If you can now see your topics enable BuddyPress and check again, now start enabling each other plugin one by one until you can no longer see the topics and let us know which plugin or theme is causing the issue for you.

    bbPress does not include a ‘Email Setting’ field.

    Most likely https://wordpress.org/support/ is what you need or the support forum for the plugin you are using.

    @nippi9 I edited your post above just to remove a large code block for readability.

    It looks like the issue above is that some of the user passwords include a quote " string and that is causing the SQL error which is entirely valid.

    
    UPDATE wp_users SET user_pass = "62138e180a81452f40bf419b5a66c359"l$" WHERE ID = "96451"
    UPDATE wp_users SET user_pass = "27e42027c6eb6008426fbe96b5fdca08;"/" WHERE ID = "96468"
    UPDATE wp_users SET user_pass = "8cc902ac070d040e1a3231803d09a9411K"" WHERE ID = "96471"
    UPDATE wp_users SET user_pass = "da19b051d168e44b5833c703e1feb37dE"@" WHERE ID = "96502"
    UPDATE wp_users SET user_pass = "32f81a53cc20309e9c4d3553d3ba64cb1FA#N~A{J<"@TD:]]5o#vEXQ2v46ct" WHERE ID = "96511"
    UPDATE wp_users SET user_pass = "d1ea441db666ef80506a70bfcc890e10Ut"" WHERE ID = "96530"
    UPDATE wp_users SET user_pass = "97eefae85da1e2ea818556577c1dbb42"!m" WHERE ID = "96540"
    UPDATE wp_users SET user_pass = "edbb4ce3d20b74ca8ab9e141c46f25nW"" WHERE ID = "96572"
    

    I’ll take a look and see if there is something we can do to fix this.

    That said, it appears only to be a password issue, if you continue you should get all the users imported and users who are affected by the password issue above would need to reset their password rather than using their existing password.
