Your forums are here now.

I think you accidentally changed the permalinks structure in Settings > Permalinks. Change it to postname…if you want postname…it does make the urls a little nicer for your forums.
In reply to: word-break: break-word; — incorrect CSS?Are you trying to support CSS 2.1? CSS 3 has been around for awhile now…
In reply to: my forum does not show up anywhereIf you didn’t change any of the default forum slugs like say for a single topic, then don’t worry about it.
Ummm can you just edit the forum FORUM–Youth Sports, Parents, Gear and more!, tell me the permalink below the title input box is, if it doesn’t have spaces or those weird %20 text, then just update the forum real quick to see if this can fix the url of the topic link.
Go to Settings > Permalinks in the WordPress backend and do the same thing, just hit the save changes button.
And try going to Tools > Forums in the WordPress backend and running these two repair jobs, one at a time.
Recalculate the parent topic for each post
Recalculate the parent forum for each postLast possible thing you can do is maybe trash and delete your existing topic, youth sports and create a new one to see if this issue persists.
In reply to: my forum does not show up anywhereokay your forums are here, but I see you have a little issue going to a topic.

Did you modify any topic slugs in Settings > Forum?
Make sure that any custom slugs you have, have dashes instead of spaces in it.
The url of the youth sports topic should have dashes in it instead of %20.
In reply to: Make forum read-only for non-logged-in visitorsIt should default to this. I think anonymous posting is disabled by default in Settings > Forums.
If you have some hidden or private BuddyPress groups where only members of the group who are logged in can see it, then change the groups to public instead to allow non-logged in users to read your group forums.
Make sure your forums are not private or hidden as well.
In reply to: Threads won’t load with Auto-Embed enabledSee if using this plugin can help remove those specific WordPress post embeds.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-embeds/
A topic with a bunch of embeds may load slow, maybe using a lazy load plugin can help as well for a different reason, to load only what is in view for the user.
In reply to: template hierarchy in visual mode?You okay if it would looks something like this in the end? Look at the visual overview.
https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/
I can help you identify some templates in a section if you need help on that. You might have to post a picture of the area though for me to know what you are talking about.
In reply to: How to Increase Game BBPress Forum Community?For a game community, I guess offer free steam keys after users do something?
More access to premium content for members that have a certain number of posts.
It really depends on how you want your site to be run.
In reply to: my forum does not show up anywhereIf your permalinks are using the ID numbers, it will be at example.com/?post_type=forum
if you are using postname permalinks it will be at example.com/forums
In reply to: How to diplay topic replies count elsewhereYou are going to have to edit your theme templates yourself since this is custom development for your theme.
What you need is possibly
bbp_topic_reply_count()orbbp_topic_post_count(), depending on if you are showing the lead topic on your site. I am not sure if doing this will work or not.In reply to: Manual topic labelsI added how to create status labels here. There is a way to create a hot label, but what I posted is just for a certain number of replies posted in a topic. Other forum systems use rating or number of replies in a certain time frame. So adjust as you please. Using the classes I have in the code you can style the label with CSS.
This is a possibly known issue that is theme/bbPress theme compatibility related.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2966
To fix this place the content-search.php and form-search.php files from the bbPress plugin to your child theme in a folder called bbpress.
If you haven’t created a child theme create one.
In reply to: QuoteWhats the problem in using a plugin? You would have the same code thats in a plugin just instead in a themes functions.php file.
In reply to: mentions not becoming links some timesIs it really just replace the underscores with spaces in this __@mention and it won’t work for you.
This is blowing my mind right now.
Did you do plugin and theme troubleshooting??
In reply to: the author posts – members / search resultsAre your forum posts still there?
This could a possible theme issue. I think bbPress could use a template (either content-search.php or search.php ) by accident from your theme.
Are you using a custom theme, you might want to create a child theme if so?
To fix this place the content-search.php and form-search.php files from the bbPress plugin to your child theme in a folder called bbpress.
If you haven’t created a child theme create one.
In reply to: No validation on registration formThe bbPress login/registration forms are buggy or have incomplete functionality.
I say use the default WordPress forms for your users, or use a frontend form plugin.
In reply to: Does not show the full forumThis is a theme/bbPress theme compat issue. The template file that bbPress is inheriting for its display is making the pages display like that.
You will need to create a bbpress.php file from code that I will post later after I take a look at a free version of your theme.
Edit: Here is the file you can use.

In reply to: Can’t click links to topics on smartphoneDid you change themes?? I see in your html source code that you have a theme named Arise.
In reply to: Not able to create Registration tabAre you using the default bbPress login widget?
This widget options has fields to activate the lost password and register links.
To answer your reply here.
Make sure to enable registration in Settings > General from the WordPress backend.
In reply to: User registration issueThanks for sharing what you chose to use.
There are a number of great BuddyPress plugins that can help manage users to specific groups.
I do not want a non-logged in user to be able to post topics or replies.
Do you have anonymous posting enabled in Settings > Forums? Disabling that will allow only logged in users to post in each forum.
The slow down you move too fast, if I remember correctly is the notice when a user posts too frequently and faster than the throttle limit you have set in Settings > Forums.
You have two topics with the “super sticky” status, which shows a topic on all forums. Instead edit each topic, or view and unstick then and make them sticky instead by either changing the status in the dropdown or clicking the stick admin link. Be careful not to hit the super sticky admin link again while doing this, the super sticky admin link displays as “(to front)”.
In reply to: how to create dynamic reply-boxIf you have a thread or few threads of replies lets say.
Reply 1
_Reply 2
__Reply 3If you click the reply admin link on the third reply post, the form pops up below the third reply post fine.
If you don’t actually submit a reply to that third reply post and instead hit the reply admin link on the first reply after that, the reply form will still be under the third reply post but shifted to the left more aligned with the first reply post.
I think that is what @jon-fergus is talking about.
In reply to: how to create dynamic reply-boxOne other little thing though. I notice that the reply form appears below all sub-replies of a reply, instead of directly beneath the intended reply.
I think the reply.js code and possible other areas for threaded replies code can be improved to fix this. No idea how right now.
When the reply form is at its default location in a bbpress topic, the Visual tab works fine. But when the reply form pops up after clicking “reply” on a comment, the Visual tab fails to work (can’t type in it or see the contents).
I think this is another known issue. One of these tickets need to possible be reopened and include a patch for this issue.
Look at some of the unread posts plugins for bbPress. It may not be exactly what you are looking for, but very similar. Most unread posts plugins just use the regular topic list view in a forum, instead of a separate area.
bbPress mark as read adds an area in the subscriptions seciton of a user profile. And bbPress pencil unread supplies a function on its plugin page.
