so if you wanted to change ‘Create New Topic’ to ‘hello mother’ you would do
//This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
if ( $translated_text == 'Create New Topic' ) {
$translated_text = 'hello mother';
}
return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );
ok, make a copy of this file and rename it bbpress.php
put this file in the root of your theme
ie
wp-content/themes/%yourthemename%/bbpress.php
where %yourthemename% is the name of your theme!
Then amend as follows
change
// Sidebar
/////////////////////////////////////////////
if ($themify->layout != “sidebar-none”): get_sidebar(); endif; ?>
to
// Sidebar
/////////////////////////////////////////////
get_sidebar(); ?>
This will then force bbpress to use a forum with a sidebar
Great – and thanks for posting the solution !
talk to your host provider about increasing your memory size
can you post your page template on here please
Always done this?, just started?, just installed bbpress?, have you added anything – like plugins?, changed themes?, updated plugins?, updated wordpress? what versions of bbpress & wordpress are you running, which theme?
and what is a ‘response’ – a reply to a topic?
Come back with further info, and we’ll try to help 🙂
great – glad you’re fixed !
bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes
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.
this is probably a theme page issue

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1
depending on your theme, you may need to do some renaming and editing of files – reda the article and then come back if you need further help
Not really sure what to recommend next, this is well out of my comfort zone.
From front end it looks like this:
http://temp.stillrunnin.com/runnin-board/reply/edit/
That is what it should look like
can you just check if this is an issue with the replies that were imported, or just new replies created or both, and how these relate to topics that were imported?
In other words do all the following have the same issue?
topic imported, reply imported
topic imported, reply created in bbpress
bbpress topic, reply created in bbpress
Put the following in your functions file
//This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
if ( $translated_text == 'old text' ) {
$translated_text = 'new text';
}
return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );
you can put in multiple lines eg
if ( $translated_text == 'old text1' ) {
$translated_text = 'new text1';
}
if ( $translated_text == 'old text2' ) {
$translated_text = 'new text2';
}
Functions files and child themes – explained !
great – glad you’re fixed
dashboard>settings>forums look for forum root slug heading and untick Prefix all forum content with the Forum Root slug
seems to be fine when I tested
great – glad you’re fixed !

you won’t be changing subscriber – that is a wordpress role – bbpress has it’s own roles, and probably that is participant.
I’m sure you can , but haven’t tried so don’t have code offhand.
Suggest you just create a new custom role, and then set your bbpress user to it.
ok, well without spending hours recreating your issue, I’d suggest you try
<?php
$idbbp = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'idbbp', true);
$forum_id = bbpress()->current_forum_id = $idbbp;
$x='[bbp-single-forum id forum id ="'.$forum_id.'"]‘ ;
echo do_shortcode( $x);
I think you found a topic on an issue – since it didn’t fix it, suggest it is not relevant.

see
https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/
and you’ll see a capability for a user to close their own topics.
you need to either amend the participant role, or create a new role with this capability
see https://codex.bbpress.org/custom-capabilities/
If it’s just a ‘Read this before you post’, then just create the topic, and then in
dashboard>topics>all topics and edit the topic you want, then under topic attributes on the right hand side, change from open to closed.
If you make this a ‘super sticky ‘ under types in the same box, you only need create this topic once, and it will appear at the start of every forum.
