In reply to: Forum Dissapeared
so if you go into Dashboard do you see forums/topics/replies as items, and if so, can you see topics etc.
And what backup for data did you have? ie were all posts copied including custom posts?
In reply to: Menu "Forum" disappeared for Moderator roleok, the database entry for usermeta is correct, and a moderator should be able to see forums in the dashboard.
I’m stuck as to what to suggest next, usually not see dashboard items is a conflict between bbpress and another plugin, but you’ve already tested for that.
My only other thought is to create a new mamp, and then export and import forums to it and see if it’s something in that.
In reply to: Menu "Forum" disappeared for Moderator rolehmmm… This conmbination should be able to see forums in the dashboard
Do you still have bbPress Advanced Capabilities in the mix? I’d still suspect this to be the issue if you have eliminated plugins and themes.
In reply to: Topic View problemok, glad you’re fixed, I was just absorbing your problem and trying to think what was causing it when I saw your later response 🙂
In reply to: Layout of the main forum is scrambled when I go backTry changing the ‘slug’ in the settings to forum
Dashboard>settings>forums and look for forum root slug
In reply to: Cannot access abc/forumsno problem but please come back with further info when you have it to help anyone in futire who sees this thread at a later stage.
In reply to: BBpress break my CSS styleFrom a quick look these are the ‘responsive’ sections of the theme.

Taking them out just makes your theme look the same all over – which if that suits you is absolutely fine.
In reply to: BBpress break my CSS styleIn reply to: Menu "Forum" disappeared for Moderator roleIf it helps, I could send you the wp_capabilities entry (table: wp_usermeta) in the database of a user with the role Moderator.
yes please
In reply to: Menu "Forum" disappeared for Moderator roleok, don’t know what bbPress Advanced Capabilities does but it might be the 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.
In reply to: category Authorizationso your
Freedive-earth-forum
should be a category and the ones underneath should be forums
In reply to: Plugin Disappeared on WordPress DashboardThere are two sets of roles wordpress and bbpress
It is a wordpress admin that can set bbpress roles, under Dashboard>settings>users and see if forum roles appear near the bottom of an existing user
If not come back and if you have database access I can tell you how to set an admin that can then set a bbpress keymaster.
In reply to: Cannot access abc/forumsok, partial solution for you – I have done some further testing
In dashboard>settings>forums make the forum slug /forums
The create a page called ‘forum’ and put
[bbp-forum-index] into this. Save and view to make sure you can see this
Right now change the heading to ‘Forums’, the page slug will stay as forum, and as long as that doesn’t match the forum slug in settings it seems to be ok.
Then create a menu item for this page
That seems to function BUT the breadcrumbs will still go to the wrong place, so for the moment take these out
That will at least get you a working forum and recipe. All that’s missing are the breadcrumbs
Let me know how you get on
In reply to: Plugin Disappeared on WordPress DashboardNo problem – glad we got there in the end !
In reply to: Cannot access abc/forumsI’ve just tried having both these plugins on my test site, and can see exactly what you mean, my forums become archive posts just as yours did, and I’m using a shortcode so that way won’t work.
So definite conflict between how these two forums are using slugs, and I suspect that the recipe one is overwriting a forum one, but don’t know how, possibly via a filter on wordpress.
I’d suggest since the recipe plugin author will have far better knowledge (as he has slug settings in his plugin) that you go back with a fresh post, and explain that on a base theme (mine was twentyten) with just bbpress and his plugin and nothing else
http://www.mysite.com/forums takes you to blog archives page
and see what he comes back with
see

for how to set up a custom roles that will let you do what you want
In reply to: Oh bother! No topics were found here!Make the master forum a type ‘category’ (just above where you have the status you changed earlier
Categories contain no topics, but contain forums
In reply to: 2 Separate forumsmaybe a theme or plugin issue

In reply to: topic-page suddenly scrambled :-(great – glad you’re fixed !
In reply to: Plugin Disappeared on WordPress DashboardJust had a thought, what bbpress level is the username you are using
so you could be a wordpress admin, but if you are a bbpress participant, then you wouldn’t see anything.
So go into dashboard>users and edit your username and see what level the bbpress role is set to
In reply to: Plugin Disappeared on WordPress Dashboardhmm… Don’t really know what to suggest next.
In reply to: category AuthorizationCategories are just ‘headings’ to allow you to create forums under them. So you cannot post to a Category only a forum.
A link to your site might help define your problem, as I am struggling to understand
In reply to: Cannot access abc/forumsthe recipe plugin author was quite helpful on the plugin site – and you seemed to say that his suggested fix worked – did it for a time, or did it not?
In reply to: Menu "Forum" disappeared for Moderator roleOk, so it will probably be a database issue eg the forum referring to a user whose details have changed.
My initial thought would be to delete that user via the dashboard, and then create a new user for that person, and see if that fixes.
The underlying questions may be perfectly valid, since I am not clear about what you want I can’t say..
I suggest you post a new topic, and rather than post vague what you don’t like suggest what is needed.
On the speed front, the next release does have some plans to improve performance.
On nodal, finegrained permissions , I presume you have seen
