Hello. I’m getting this error when attempting to update the bbPress plugin on my site:
As suggested here on Stack Overflow, I made sure my file permissions are set properly:
I even tried renaming the bbpress directory to bbpress.old without success. Does anyone know how to fix this? I’m not necessarily opposed to reinstalling the plugin, but I want to make sure it’s not going to wipe out any related database records.
You’re welcome all. Happy to be able to help 🙂
@wasanajones You can use get_the_excerpt( $se_post ) or just post_excerpt property of the WP_Post object:
Edit the last callback from previous code to go as this:
add_filter('bbp_get_form_topic_content', function( $body ) {
global $se_post;
if( $se_post ) {
return $se_post->post_excerpt;
}
return $body;
});
I did not test this but I am sure it should work.
Best,
Samuel
I want to join WordPress forum. Recently i joined bbpress.org forum. Tell me another best forum plugins for wordpress? Help me.
OK, so I have now purchased the Pro version and it still doesn’t work! EVERYTHING ON MY SITE WORKS GREAT EXCEPT THIS MESSAGES? So I don’t see why it should be a problem with Wamp;
Have produced new WP site on Wamp 2.5 on my PC. I have installed bbp-messages 0.2.3.1 and already have bbpress 2.5.8 forum. WordPress 4.6.1 Sport Theme by Theme Canon Win10
THE WHOLE SITE and forum IS WORKING FINE, but When I try to use bbp-messages Lite, it returns the following:
FORBIDDEN: you don’t have permission to access wordpress/members1/http:/localhost/wordpress/members1/ on this server. Apache/2.4.9 (Win64) PHP/5.5.12 Server at localhost Port 80.
Would be very grateful for any advice as I am ready to publish this web – this my first WP site!
Update. Today we did the following:
1. Deactivated all BuddyPress and bbPress plugins. Uninstalled all BuddyPress and bbPress plugins. Removed all BuddyPress and bbPress data from the database, but kept a backup copy of the data and tables.
2. Installed fresh WordPress on fresh server. Installed new, fresh plugins.
3. Site worked.
4. Replaced data from backup.
5. Entire site works, EXCEPT there is a 503 error when people try to post a reply on a forum, and a 503 error when we try to go to the “replies” page from the wp-admin.
So, maybe something in the data? Could someone have posted a reply that has some content that is breaking the php code when trying to see the Admin panel “replies” page or when people try to post a reply?
We have learned another thing. When people post a reply, the reply DOES go into the db and it is visible to other members on the forum. HOWEVER, the person posting the reply gets a 503 error during the process and has to come back to the site fresh to see the forum, including their post.
Something is causing a 503 error ONLY when replying OR when we try to access the Admin “Replies” page as admin. It is very very strange.
I wanted to introduce myself to the forum. I just registered and I have been using bbpress for about a week now! I am running WordPress 4.6.1 and bbpress 2.5.11…. I created a website and forum page @ http://www.theintrovertspeaksblog.com I would like some honest input as to the integration of bbpress into the website. I also have a question, On the lost password page it displays a blank screen with simple text box only as well as the reset password button. I temp fixed it by adding text above the box to direct the user to insert username or password. Is there a better way to do this?
It is the shortcode, but I think that you probably need to pay someone to do this – different theme work in different ways and clearly this is not within your current skillset

This plugin is even better for image uploads, imho 🙂
https://wordpress.org/plugins/image-upload-for-bbpress/
would need bespoke code.
You can get close by having forums per team and using
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbp-private-groups
but without further code it wouldn’t restrict them to their own topics
no idea why it is not in core, but this I think adds that functionality

Maybe to help out a bit:
We run
PHP7.0-fpm (latest stable)
Nginx 1.10 (latest stable)
Ubuntu 16.04 (latest stable)
WordPress 4.6.1
bbPress 2.5.11
bbPress Advanced Statistics 1.4.02
bbPress NewTopics 1.0.1
bbPress No CAPTCHA reCAPTCHA 1.0
BuddyPress Version 2.7.2
BuddyPress Activity Plus 1.6.4
Buddypress Messages Spam Blocker 2.5
BuddyPress Profile Tabs 1.6.1
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 twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
ok, so try
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
and go to
dashboars>settings>bbp style pack>forum templates to get one that is closer to what you want
and use
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
to have private groups
I also have this problem and am running the current versions of WordPress and bbPress. Is there a fix for this yet? Thank you!
I’m currently working on a project for a client who wants to have the latest reply from any topic in a forum show up on the main bbpress page under the forum name. Is there a way to get this reply from the database using either built in functions or a wp_query. I also need to show the persons avatar, name, and when it was posted. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Dev site is at http://realestateinvesting.how/topics/. I can’t tell you exactly what version of bbpress they are using as the client hired a developer before me who hid the plugins unless your at a user level higher than admin. WordPress version is 4.5
Hello, I Installed wordpress correctly with an mySQL, installed a theme, then installed bbPress. When I click on Forums, I see they exist in the control panel, but when I visit the pages, they just don’t exist. My theme comes with a Basket because it comes with a market, and even the URL/Basket is missing. I’m not sure what is going on as I am new to WordPress. This site is keeping me afloat so any help i really appreciate.
Hi,
New to bbPress and finding it great to work with.
I have an issue though – on forum listings all topics get the wp-sticky class regardless of whether or not they’re sticky. This is the same whether or not there are any sticky topics in a forum.
Is this is a bug or am I missing something?
WordPress 4.6.1 / bbPress 2.5.11
Something has gone wonky and suddenly none of the original posts in my topics are visible. You can see all of the replies and make a reply.
bbPress 2.5.10-6063
I’m running the latest version of WordPress and Buddypress.
Hello everyone,
I have a lot BBpress related questions that i can’t find a good answer to. Is there someone that has some good experience in customizing and setting up BBpress who has Skype and is willing to help me trough Skype?
The answers i am looking for are related to these subjects.
*When user account is created, user logs in but when button log in is clicked, page refreshes and doesn’t show logged in account information. The same screen as when not logged in.
*When the user finally gets logged in there is a wordpress menu on top, how to delete this? (atleast on mobile we’ve seen it)
*We want a different page for the user that already has an account or for the new users that aren’t already logged in (forum page).
*BBpress sidebar is not showing up, tried many different things. Adding code manually, installed plugins etc. Only the main theme sidebar is showing.
*Breadcrumb path is displaying forums twice. We did some php code to hide the homepage but don’t know how to hide these double words.
Help would be really appreciated. If there is no way around i am willing to pay a small fee.

WordPress 4.6.1 running Avada theme, bbPress 2.5.10, and Userpro plugin
Using bbPress forum with UserPro plugin to manage users. You need to be logged in to view forum so “Restricted Content / Members Only You cannot view this content because It is available to members only. Please Login or Register to view this area” message appears when you click on forum when not signed in. After clicking on Login, I sign in and the forum appears, but it still has the same Restricted Content message above the forum. The support team at UserPro said “Can you please try contacting to bbPress and ask them about how the private groups and forums are created in their plugin, as they will be the best to understand the structure and functionalities of the plugin.”

Thanks for your help.
you can add roles and/or change their names – see
Custom Capabilities
The following in an example that both adds new roles and changes the names of existing.
/* bbPress Custom Roles */
function add_custom_role( $bbp_roles ) {
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role2'] = array(
'name' => 'Craftsman',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role3'] = array(
'name' => 'Journeyman',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role4'] = array(
'name' => 'Adept',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role5'] = array(
'name' => 'Artisan',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() ) // the same capabilities as keymaster
);
$moderator = bbp_get_moderator_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$moderator] = array(
'name' => 'Councilman',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() ) // the same capabilities as moderator);
$keymaster = bbp_get_keymaster_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$keymaster] = array(
'name' => 'Advisor',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_keymaster_role() ) // the same capabilities as keymaster
);
$apprentice = bbp_get_participant_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$apprentice] = array(
'name' => 'Apprentice',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
return $bbp_roles;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_custom_role', 1 );
you can limit access to forums byh changing their visibility
Public – Anyone can see these forums
Private – Only logged in registered users with a forum role can see these forums
Hidden: Only Moderators/keymasters can see these forums
or if you want more control by using :
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
