ok, can you look and see if you are a Keymaster?
dashboard>users and check yourself in the list. If not is anyone a keymaster?
so you mean that in the dashboard you can see topics and replies, but not forums – yes ?
it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.
Plugins
If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users
Health Check & Troubleshooting
Then come back

have both been recently suggested, but I have not tried either, any feedback would be welcome 🙂
ok, so that is going to be hard to answer as your site is unique to you, and this is theme and setting dependant.
a bit like me asking you where the best place in my bathroom to put the towel rail, and how to install it when I don’t know what a drill is 🙂
@gloriajameson you are now well beyond any support for bbpress!!!
And into wordpress and the plugin you are using.
I have no idea if that plugin stores uploads as WordPress media images, or in a separate folder, and indeed whether it makes multiple copies. I have no knowledge either of compressor, there are other compression plugins, but as I say not in my area to recommend or indeed say whether they would work.
My personal general view would be that letting users exchange images privately, whilst leaving copies on your website sounds dangerous as without looking as each image you have no idea what images are being sent, thus leaving you open to possible action such as copyright, reputation damage though say pornography or indeed criminal action against you – eg in the UK holding bomb making instructions makes you liable to be sent to prison. Depends on how much you want to trust your users 🙂
great – thanks again for posting back – glad you have a solution
can you contact me via
Contact me
quoting a link to this thread, and I’ll see if I can help further
attach it and link
but yes I need to understand what you mean by ‘header’
This appears to be a paid theme, so i have no access to it.
I suggest you try
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1
item 8
I can’t say for sure as I’ve not used that plugin.
But bbpress and worpdress have lots of capabilities to put code where you wish, so
1. exactly where do you want it to go?
2. Do you know how to do a button linking to the page?
thanks, recommendations always welcome
great – glad you are fixed !!
probably better in buddypress support
https://buddypress.org/support/
I hadn’t seen that one – looks interesting! – let us know if it works for you, and I’ll add it to my list of useful plugins
settings for that are in
dashboard>settings>forums and near the bottom
ok, but that’s not a default bbpress response, so have you a plugin doing this?
how are you achieving ‘require that topics be approved before appearing in the forum.’ or is this still a wish ?
so where do you want to put this ?
depends on what you mean by ‘solution’ 🙂
get_avatar( wp_get_current_user(), 32 );
This still works as far as I know
bbPress Notifications
it it is not perfect, the code wold get you most of the way to what you want
what theme are you using ?
Wordpress is free software, as is bbpress 🙂
Some lunches are free, but yes you should add plugins with some thought.
There are tens of thousands of themes, and tens of thousands of plugins. It would be impossible to test every combination. I can’t say that bbpress has been tested with Avada !!
As long as both theme and plugin adhere to basic standards, then it is likely that they will work together.
The plugin is a subset of code from within buddypress, so if you have buddypress you don’t need the plugin.
bbPress Messages
still works as far as I know
