Hi,
bbPress has not changed it’s stable version for some time. Things that changed are WordPress and Woocommerce, so I would suggest to also talk with them and first check the last opened tickets since you more or less have the issue.
Did you check you don’t have any issues: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/read-this-first-9?replies=1

Hi there and “guten Morgen” Pascal,
thank you for thoughts! š
A few minutes ago I was reading an article about the multisite feature of wordpress. I of course heard about that in the past. But never really thought about it in deep …
What I don’t understand is, if I would try to build a forum as a “subsite” with the multisite ability, if users, who register on the “subsite” would be also registered on the mainsite? … I don’t get it š
Best regards and “Liebe GrĆ¼Će” ! š
Torsten
Guten Morgen Torsten,
My doubt was on the double users you would have, but if (except the admins) nobody else has a current account, then you won’t have that issue.
You could go for a separate WordPress and bbPress installation, but… :
– Speed: If you put both on the same physical machine, inside the same shared account or on the same SQL behind, then you will not gain, you might even loose as you have 2 WordPress instances running
– Security: Over the years the security of WordPress has increased a lot and if you are careful with plugins and custom installs, I don’t see why an extra instance would be needed.
I would like to add the burden of having to update 2 WordPress instances with anyway the same version, theme, customizations, …
But of course it’s your choice !
Let’s see if other have a different opinion,
freundliche GrĆ¼Će,
Pascal.
Hello dear bbpress team and community! š
I would like to create and run a forum on our magazine site (http://www.1-2-family.de). Of course my first choice is bbpress.
The thing is, that I would like to separate the whole database (for security and speed reasons?) from the ones of the magazine. So I thought to create a subfolder (or a subdomain?) to install a second instance of wordpress. And then fill it with the same theme of the magazine all needed plugins (such as bbpress) to just run the community (forum) on this subfolder (or subdomain).
Would this be a good choice? I just dont’t want anybody beeing able to register in to the wordpress system, where the magazine is running. It’s just a weird feeling to me …
Warmest regards š
Torsten

Why is this?
Hi Casipea,
I have one button “New Topic” When I click on that I open new page which is added from pages admin section in that page only shortcode added “[bbp-topic-form]” . and this page only for paticipants.
Sometimes new topic added successfully sometimes not mostly not added
And on other page where we listing all topics and at bottom there is one form for new topic add.
From this new topic is not going to add sometimes added.
Wordpress : 4.3.1
BBPress: bbPress 2.5.8-5815.
Hi,
If you want to use the same permissions/capabilities on all your forums, then a new custom role with the above capabilities is the best way to go.
If you want to ‘protect’ only some of your (sub)forums against new topic creation, then you can use my bbP Toolkit plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-toolkit/).

Hey guys,
I want to add a forum to my companies website, so we can improve our retention rate and increase our return rate.
I should be able to add buddypress to the site right ? I’ve never done this before and don’t know exactly where to begin. The website is http://dallastechsolutions.com – the forum would be somewhere on the menu bar.
Basically, we’re wanting to add a forum onto the menu bar, so that business owners can ask questions and get free advice before actually committing to professional help.
If you have any suggestions on how to go about this, i would really appreciate the help.
Thank you!

Make sure your using the correct database prefix, most phpBB tables will be named something like phpbb_posts, in that case the database prefix is phpbb_
If you are importing from phpBB 3.1 then you can test the new importer via our bbPress ādevelopment versionā aka bbPress 2.6 alpha, theres some new import improvements, you can get this from the following page or direct link:
ā¢ https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/developers/
ā¢ https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.zip
The Importer runs smoothly until it gets to āConverting Repliesā. It then just gets stuck somewhere in the middle of processing repliesā¦ I just see the rotating loading Symbol. At my last try to get this done, it already got stuck at āConverting Replies 0-99ā ā¦..
This is an awful error and wish I could replicate it so it can be fixed, sadly haven’t been able to achieve this yet. Its usually caused by character encoding in the database, more can be found on this issue in the codex here:
ā¢ https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/importing-data/import-forums/import-troubleshooting/
So where are replies 100-200 ???
The importer will, rather should continue on from where it left of when you stop then start it again, the way it currently works is it stores the current value and reads that when you start it again, I’ll take a closer look at the code to see if thats not doing what it is supposed to be doing.
You should also use the ādevelopment versionā aka bbPress 2.6 alpha, theres some new import improvements, you can get this from the following page or direct link:
ā¢ https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/developers/
ā¢ https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.zip
1. You should be sorted by doing what your doing and refreshing (in another browser tab)
2. This is also usually an authentication issue, though this time with the MySQL database, you’ll usually only get this error though if you haven’t refreshed this page recently before starting of an import.
You should also use the “development version” aka bbPress 2.6 alpha, theres some new bbPress 1.x to 2.x import improvements, you can get this from the following page or direct link:
ā¢ https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/developers/
ā¢ https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.zip

Any ideas?
This is my site http://doggeando.com
Wordpress 4.4.1
bbPress 2.5.8
Hi,
I have never tried, but if you are migrating to a new WordPress/bPress site, then I don’t see why this would not be possible. You just need some SQL skills to modify the DB after you inmport your users.

Hi, I am integrating bbPress and BuddyPress and want users to be able to update their public name in one place–the BuddyPress name field. It seems the simplest way would be to modify bbPress to show this BuddyPress field rather than one of the myriad WordPress profile fields.
I know it’s kinda possible to get this to work if you turn on BuddyPress->WordPress profile sync, but this feature of BP overwrites WP first_name and last_name, which is unacceptable in this site. Does anyone know how to accomplish what I’m trying to do?
Thanks!!
Hi All,
As the title says, I’m hoping there’s some way to preserve the same User IDs when importing forum users from vbulletin to WordPress. We’re starting a new site from scratch, but we have a ton of database info tied to specific user IDs.
Is this possible? Would be awesome to have this feature.
Thank you
Guys, I’m having a major problem with bbPress on my site.
If I have bbPress activated, I can’t do ANYTHING in the wordpress admin (Create, Edit, or Delete Posts, Pages, etc). bbPress is slowing my site down to a crawl. It’s so slow, that the page eventually just times out.
This has to be a flaw in the bbPress code, because there’s no reason why bbPress should be running on every page of the wordpress admin. That’s incredibly ineffecient on your server resources.
Can someone please help me fix this problem?
Thanks,
Good day, excuse my English. I am new to bbPress, and I’m looking for a way to make my forum posts appear in the search results box finder wordpress, this is that all the results of my site appear in one box. Is there any way?
Thanks in advance
Hi,
I have been using the widgets from bbP Private Groups for that (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/) and of course the groups.
But there might be other plugins of course.
