It could be a theme or plugin issue
Plugins
Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
In reply to: Autosubscribe by all usersYes, bbpress keeps removing links – bit silly when I’m only trying to help !

contact me via my website and I’ll send you the code for your functions file
no simple way to do this in your functions file, the bbpress widgets are pretty unforgiving in allowing you to tinker with them.
two immediate choices – fork the widgets code into your functions file and rename it – requires some php and WordPress knowledge or
Just amend it in the bbpress file – AND make a note to need to change it on bbpress upgrades.The latter upsets the purists, but it’s only codes and you can’t be arrested for changing code !
In reply to: Change Topic post type permissonGreat – glad to have helped !
In reply to: Change Topic post type permissonYes you can do this, but without checking lost of coding I’d suggest you try

which lets you control who can see what in the backend.
In reply to: Cannot Access WordPress DasboardDo you still have a problem?
I am unsure from your various rants what exactly the issue is – I need a problem definition to be able to help, and don’t know from your name ‘iapologizepleasedeleteme’ whether you have now fixed your issue.
If you still have the problem then – given that you have been pressing lots of buttons – I would suggest you contact you host provider and ask then to revert your site to a previous backup – almost all host providers take backups every 24 hours. This will get you site working again.
I would then invest some time in creating a test site – to do development in your live site is just stupid, as you have found out. See https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/testing-your-bbpress-installation/creating-a-test-site/
suggest you try their support forums, as they have experience of bbpress (they use it for their support forum), whereas I doubt if any of the mods on here have looked at their plugin.

SUMMARY OF ISSUE AND TEMPORARY FIXES
So summary to save people needing to read this whole thread
There is an issue with WordPress 4.4 and bbpress which should (hopefully) be fixed by WordPress 4.4.1 when it is released.
The issue only affects sub forums that are private or hidden, when you will get a 404 error as the url cannot be correctly interpreted.
For those interested:
The root cause of the issue is hierarchal post URL’s with custom post statuses, so in bbPress case if we have a “private” forum that uses a custom post status “private”, as such when we expect our URL to be e.g.: https://example.com/forums/forum/my-private-or-hidden-category/my-forum
If the forum or category my-private-or-hidden-category is private or hidden then the URL generated for the my-forum excludes the my-private-or-hidden-category part of the URL and the resulting url is https://example.com/forums/forum/my-forum which is incorrect, bad and makes us sad
To fix in the meantime you have 4 choices
either
a. Stay with 4.4 then implement the following
open wp-includes/post.php, scroll to about line 4300 to find function get_page_uri( $page )
In that function replaceif ( 'publish' === $parent->post_status ) {with
if ( ! empty( $parent ) ) {If you try this, please advise if this doesn’t fix for you.
or
b. Change your sub forums to main forums – it is only sub forums that are affected
or
c. In theory you could just make your private forums public, but suspect you have them private for a reason !
or
d. Revert to 4.3 and then for each forum affected change the status from private/hidden to public, save and then change back to how you want it and save.Thanks for explaining that – now I understand !
I have just sent your a reply.
It does seem that the fix in wp-includes/post.php doesnlt work for everyone – I donl;t know why, and you could spend hours investigating whether it is theme/plugin/user related.
For the time being 3 suggestions hold.
Un-nest your forums, so that you don’t have private/hidden sub forums
Apply the fix and see if it works for you
revert to 4.3None is a better solution than the other – it depends on your circumstances. If you can live with un-nesting, then this is the simplest !
@bsilverop – do you not have FTP access with GoDaddy?
In reply to: BBPress not working on themeMy links didn’t work, but PLEASE tell us what you did to fix it – so that we can help others in future
In reply to: BBPress not working on themesince this is a paid theme, I’d be straight back to the theme authors.
But you could try
as possible fixes
In reply to: Blank page, still setting upyour theme thinks it’s opening up a blog page – when you click genera discussion you’ll see that in menu blog is selected.
Have you followed
and looked at no. 8
As far as I know for those that are affected (and that’s only a subset who have hidden/private sub forums I believe – although let me know if different, the it is either
a. If you are staying with 4.4 then implement the following
open wp-includes/post.php, scroll to about line 4300 to find function get_page_uri( $page )
In that function replaceif ( 'publish' === $parent->post_status ) {with
if ( ! in_array( $parent->post_status, get_post_stati( array( 'internal' => true ) ) ) ){But this doesn’t seem to work for everyone or
b. Revert to 4.3 and then for each forum affected change the status from private/hidden to public, save and then change back to how you want it and save. That should be all you need to do. The private groups toggle is a red herring as far as I can work out
In reply to: Forums List@shades404 that would be great. http://www.rewweb.co.uk
