In reply to: BBPress slowness save
Disable Favorites, Subscriptions, and Threaded Replies if you have any of these set and see if that helps.
In reply to: Notifications not workingIs the topic you are trying to subscribe to in a private forum/hidden forum, or is the topic closed/pending. You may not be able to see topics in your subscriptions list on your profile if that is the case. I am not 100% sure on this though.
In reply to: Change reply author on edit?Surely there is a way to change the reply author without going into the admin panel?
The devs made it possible in the 2.6 version of bbPress I think.

Not sure how to do what you want with a filter.
In reply to: Searching ProblemCheck to see if this is theme specific or see if changing the forum search slug is causing this.
In reply to: [Multisite] Access Denied after bbPress is activatedIm just going to leave a link to this since @abuosama36 did end up resolving their issue.

In reply to: Core change2.6 alpha did just get updated with the 2.5.10 security fix.
In reply to: notification emails not sending – 2016I rolled back bbPress since I read they changed their mail headers in 2.5.4 – so I went from the latest (2.5.9) to 2.5.3
Update it to the latest version.
Edited the database and added multiple addresses in the wp_options field for admin – still no notifications.
Maybe consider reverting this to what you had previously.
Did you do all what is described below @benjieblock?
Create a forum and subscribe to the forum, and create a topic with your admin account and also subscribe to it on a live test site to test these subscriptions in.
Create a test participant user to just post test posts in that topic you just created to test topic subscription emails, and create topics in the forum to test forum subscription emails.
I guess now just check on your Admin/Keymaster email {your admin user email} to see if any of them sent.
This is just troubleshooting to see if you can even get 1 subscription email, either topic or forum subscription emails using bbPress by default without any new plugins.
If it works without any plugins we can go from there.
IF it doesn’t we need to find a plugin/theme/custom code snippet that might be causing an issue.
Also in the future the larger your forums grow and if you allow both subscription emails for every mod and keymaster in your forum, you will need to consider using smtp and AsynCRONous bbPress Subscriptions.
Did you make sure the hidden groups forum was also hidden? You can edit the forum in the WordPress backend and just change the post visibility to hidden.
In reply to: Making a Child-THeme for BBPressFollow this. If you theme has a specific way of creating a child theme follow any of their own guides.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
The categories and topics are all weird. I just wish it looked standard like every other major forum out there.
It may be how the default category and forum layout bbPress uses. Maybe consider using this loop-forums.php file in a child theme.

In reply to: Editing PermissionsPer forum moderation is coming in the 2.6 release of bbPress.
THere might be a premium plugin that can add this feature, I think it was Press Permit Core, not entirely sure though.
Robin says his plugin Private Groups may be able to do this type of thing too.
Run the repair tools in Tools > Forums one at a time. There is a specific one for BuddyPress group forum relationships, but it is not a bad thing to run all of these repair tools every now and then.
In reply to: bbpress not working with page builder.You said you wanted to edit the files, I assumed you would be familiar in styling your forums with CSS. If you are not that knowledgeable in using CSS then check and see if using a plugin like bbP Style Pack helps you out.
In reply to: bbpress not working with page builder.Follow this guide and place the CSS files from the bbPress plugin in a child theme then customize it from there. Or use a custom CSS plugin. Whatever works best for you.
In reply to: bbpress not working with page builder.I recommend not using a page builder when creating bbPress forum post types. Use a page builder to make custom static pages, not try to customize bbPress dynamic pages.
In reply to: Bbpress Background ImageI say stick with not using a transparent background for these pages and revert the other pages that you set in your theme, it would make it hard to read for your users.
In reply to: Crop image pluginI don’t think this has anything to do with bbPress either. Remember these support forums are just for the bbPress plugin.
Maybe go into these support forums instead.
In reply to: Adding bar behind the textThis seems to not be about bbPress at all.
Contact your theme author if this is theme specific.
In reply to: How do I add Topic Metadata?You are going to have to create this by yourself.
bbPress comprises of custom post types, so you should be able to use post_meta.
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_post_meta/
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_post_meta
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_post_meta
Here is a good example of using custom post meta with bbPress.
https://wp-dreams.com/articles/2013/06/adding-custom-fields-bbpress-topic-form/
There are some bbPress support forum plugins that you may need to look into that may add something similar of the features you want.
You can create a custom topic form input for the users to explain why this is important, a topic status that indicates where the topic is at and indicate by color, resolution deadline could be time it was closed.
There is also many hooks that might be helpful.
In reply to: Action to disable email subscription notificationsCan’t you just disable bbPress forum subscriptions in Settings > Forums, and just keep the BuddyPress notifications.
BuddyPress might send out emails for their specific components too, you might need to head to their support forum for this.
In reply to: Topic tags deleted by other participantsI agree with you it seems odd to have it this way, created this ticket in favor to change it.
In reply to: Change reply author on edit?Why not change the Disallow editing time option in Settings > Forums to zero.
In reply to: Migrating from a Drupal site to wordpress site1. An answer to this is really a personal opinion on what you prefer specifically from each.
2. For WordPress you need a theme, Im sure its the same for others.
3. Just so you know WordPress is the CMS and bbPress is just piggybacking and using APIs from such. WordPress is updated quite frequently. You can allow bbPress to update automatically if you want through some plugin.
4. I don’t know why you brought up phpbb here, but bbPress can be automatically updated using a plugin. WordPress is updated automatically for security releases, and sometimes hosts cann allow you to just allow it to update automatically all the time.
5. Blog functionality comes packaged with WordPress, you can add other features using plugins or themes.
6. Read this for hardening WordPress.

7. For captcha plugins that work with bbPress check out this guide.

8. Use a plugin, or online service, or check your hosting provider.

9. Yes this forum has more than 100k topics. Users you will be fine.
Also which plugins will be better for users and forums so that their updation does not affect the live site once it is launched.
IF you are talking about plugin/theme/WordPress updates. Try to avoid automatic updates so you do not come across issues during an update and check to see if the update does not have any issues below rolling it out. Or just take frequent backups to avoid update issues and just roll back to a previous state.
In reply to: Move multiple threadsYou can use this plugin to move topics in other forums.
In reply to: How to place top navigation in bbpress topics?@imborx I see here the author of that guide you linked to helped you out.
https://wpup.co/bbpress-threaded-nested-replies-with-paging/#comment-2772468803
yeah thats the ticket I was talking about @netweb.
Maybe something like this, not sure of what you are after.
Put the custom CSS in a custom CSS plugin or place it into a child themes style.css if you already created a child theme.
