I am really confused about how bbPress works…
I have taken over a website from a previous administrator. I replaced the WordPress site completely with a new one I developed. There was already a bbPress forum (a whole separate SQL database), so I just added a menu item to my site that linked to the existing forum directly. http://www.oakridgeoutlaws.org
Now I need to work on customizing the forum. Since I originally developed my new WP site on my own computer using WAMP I thought I would add bbPress there first to play around with it. So, from WordPress, I added the bbPress plug-in and followed the the instructions. I can make a forum show up on a page, but it is not like what is on the public server. On the real website there is a whole other SQL database for the forum. On my local site, there is just a bbpress folder in my plugins folder.
I saw a comment on another thread here that said “bbPress is not a WordPress plug-in. It is a stand-alone software.” What am I missing? What did I download when I added a plugin called bbPress?
Thank you for putting up with a confused newbie.
If your theme gets a breadcrumb, then disable Yoast’s one. You may have two breadcrumb:
First ==> WordPress
Second==> BBPress
You do this:
*/
function tempera_breadcrumbs1() {
$temperas= tempera_get_theme_options();
foreach ($temperas as $key => $value) { ${"$key"} = $value ; }
global $post;
$separator = "<i class='icon-angle-right'></i> ";
if( !is_bbpress()){
if (is_page() && !is_front_page() || is_single() || is_category() || is_archive()) {
echo '<div class="breadcrumbs">';
echo '<a href="'.home_url().'"><i class="icon-homebread"></i></a>'.$separator ;
if (is_page()) {
$ancestors = get_post_ancestors($post);
if ($ancestors) {
$ancestors = array_reverse($ancestors);
foreach ($ancestors as $crumb) {
echo '<a href="'.get_permalink($crumb).'">'.get_the_title($crumb).$separator.'</a>';
}
}
}
if (is_single()) {
if (has_category()) {
$category = get_the_category();
echo '<a href="'.get_category_link($category[0]->cat_ID).'">'.$category[0]->cat_name.$separator.'</a>';
}
}
if (is_category()) {
$category = get_the_category();
echo ''.$category[0]->cat_name.'';
}
if (is_tag()) {
echo ''.__('Tag','tempera').''.$separator.single_tag_title('', false);
}
// Current page
if (is_page() || is_single()) {
echo ''.get_the_title().'';
}
echo '</div>';
}
elseif (is_home() && $tempera_frontpage!="Enable" ) {
// Front page
echo '<div class="breadcrumbs">';
echo '<a href="'.home_url().'"><i class="icon-homebread"></i></a> '.$separator;
_e('Home Page','tempera');
echo '</div>';
}
}
} // tempera_breadcrumbs()
add_action('after_setup_theme','remove_fonction_parent2');
function remove_fonction_parent2() {
remove_action('cryout_before_content_hook','tempera_breadcrumbs');
add_action ('cryout_before_content_hook','tempera_breadcrumbs1');
}

You have to change the information about your theme.
hi friends,
Me too, breadcrumb is not showing only in forum pages.
Previously i had WordPress SEO plugin. Now disabled that too. But still i am not getting breadcrumb. No code is done. Latest bbpress has been installed as it is.
Please help
Thanks
Rob thanks for the plug-in, which I will use immediately, BUT how is it that it’s not considered a security issue to be giving out “confidential” e-mail addresses Via the BCC field?
It’s a big breach of privacy.
This should be fixed at the core! When spammers get wind of this all they need to do is reply or subscribe to a post topic to snag e-mail addresses of participants. They will.
I don’t want my e-mail address given away and both the BBPress forums and WordPress forums appear NOT to do this while the the default behavior of this application on any other wordpress installation DOES.
Please consider this carefully for addition into the WordPress core.
Ciao,
L
Maybe not using BCC at all would help, plus this delivers emails through the wp-cron to make sending emails more efficient and make the emails most likely not end up in the spam folder.

If you have a support forum this plugin will help you add additional topic statuses like resolved.

do you know that the default WordPress login page is yoursite.com/wp-login.php and the direct link to the WordPress backend (Administration area) is yoursite.com/wp-admin?
So you renamed wp-login.php to newadmin. And after you login you are redirected to the dashboard at wp-admin.
I am starting to think this is not really an issue.
I also did test the dashboard access plugin and didn’t really see an issue from it either. Maybe the redirect url you inputted in that plugin may be causing an issue?? I am not sure.
When I contacted the devs yesterday, one of them said that they haven’t come across this issue lately, and also if WordPress was installed in a subfolder.
They said a possible issue is that there might be some caching where it shouldn’t be.
I replied and said that I will at least keep this bug, that you and some other guys are experiencing, as a possible issue with bbPress. I will also report back to the devs if it happens to another user again, then we can go to bug finding from there.
But its not contained in a nice neat pop-up box like here in bbpress’s sub-header bar.
That is a modified WordPress toolbar slipped under the header.
Is there a way to include registration link inside the login widget? or is there a registration widget?
There should be some settings in the widget to input a registration link and a forgot password link too.
Hi,
I’m making a multi-languages website, and I’m starting with English (original), Arabic and Chinese. My team includes original speakers of each language so we can have a good view of which words are for humans and which are not.
The Arabic translation (which located here) is suck .. really!
I tried to edit the translation and download the new files, but I can’t because there’s a current translation I don’t want it.
Since I can’t create the file myself, my question is:
How can I make my own translation in the same way and download only what I translated?
Thanks in advance!
Nope I’m using remove dashboard access, https://wordpress.org/plugins/remove-dashboard-access-for-non-admins/ =) it’s the first one I came across which does exactly what I want.
I didn’t want to just hide the admin bar I wanted to completely disable it for anyone who isn’t admin.
And if someone try’s to access WP-admin they are redirected to a page of my choosing. =D
Any plugin that hooks into the default WordPress registration and adds special fields should add fields also to the bbPress registration form.
A plugin like this could add extra fields.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/cimy-user-extra-fields/
This site uses the [bbp-login] shortcode and there is a message on the registration page that says this site uses the same registration details as WordPress.org.
I am not sure why you would want the WordPress comment system on your profile, but a good alternative is to use the BuddyPress activity streams.
Hi all,
Just setting up my new forum using the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress, but Im having trouble handling user registration.
Ive used the forum login widget to handle logins in my sidebar, but im not happy with registration. I created a new page called registration and added the shortcode [bbp-register]. But this is really basic and not what a am looking for at all, unless its possible to edit it somehow, something I am fairly sure cannot be done to a shortcode?
Does anyone have any suggestion as to what login and registration plugins are good to use? Or anyone know what this bbpress site uses to handle its login and registrations, that looks good handling both functions in one tidy box in a single area.
Thanks for you help in advance.

Hello, I’m having some issues with bbpress, when i activate the plugin all the ajax / jquery features fail to work i.e add to watchlist button, posts, maps, and anything that uses scripts to load.
Has anyone experianced this or know the cause, I enabled debug and it gives me this error, not sure if it’s linked, Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init(). Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 2.3.) in /wp-includes/functions.php on line 3622
At the moment I cannot use the plugin as my site uses a lot of scripts to load the features.
Let me know if you’re able to help. Thanks
You installed WordPress in a subdirectory? This is one of the trac tickets that I found and it may seem to have the exact issue you do. Confirm so I can make sure the issue is not fixed.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1645
I will mark the topic as [resolved] and close it after you reply to confirm the issue.
First, thanks for your time
no, not wordpres multisite
but maybe something unusual is that wordpress is installed in a subdirectory
I do not understand is because the argument loggedout in redirect_url is set in true and redirect to home and not logout
if eval argument only add by bbp_add_error ‘You are now logged out.’
in add_action( ‘bbp_head’, ‘bbp_login_notices’ );
please if you consider solved the topic set [solved]
I get that you are sorry for your English haha you don’t have to keep telling me 🙂
Okay try adding this to your child themes function.php file to see if this helps solve your issue, but try just logging out from the WordPress Toolbar only for now.
remove_filter( 'logout_url', 'bbp_logout_url' );
I am not sure if having email/bubble notifications is there if you @mention someone in bbPress forums.
Maybe using this would add a notification but I am not sure.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-live-notification/
You can create a ticket in the bbPress trac, if you think this would be a great idea to have a hook for. I cannot really think of any other great uses except for the link counter feature you said though.
Thank you for your fast reply.
My website is running on a WAMP Server, that’s why I linked the theme that I use instead of a link to my website wich isn’t hosted : I’m only using the last version of WordPress, same about bbpress and the theme BrickYard, nothing more. And all is on a fresh install.
bbPress does not create any database tables it used WordPress’s tables.
Stored Database Data
Install WP Admin No Show to disable users from accessing the WordPress backend.
Troubleshoot for missing pages.

is it possible to make the “Forum” dropdown menu a required field, and to require that in that drop down users choose a forum and not be able to choose “no forums” (which currently shows as the the default option).
I will create a trac ticket for this later today. It might be best for it to be required and for the default text to be “choose forum” instead.
You can create a button to your new topic page easily by using the text widget provided from WordPress, and adding this simple HTML.
<a href="http://yoursite.com/new-topic" class="button">New Topic</a>
Hello everyone,
I’m running bbpress with the BrickYard theme and I’m use the right sidebar.
Actually I was able to display the sidebar to all of my blog but the forum : I deleted the line “<?php get_sidebar(); ?>” from the file page.php then I saved it under the name of “bbpress.php”.
It works but the forum isn’t at a full width :
And I tried to get the full width but I’m not able to, after some hours I give up.
I read the documentation of the theme, there is a “template-full-width.php” within the theme but it doesn’t work because it’s page.php without the line that gets the sidebar and that I removed so the problem is still there (I believe that it should auto-resize without the sidebar but it’s not the case).
Best regards,
ananotheruser
PS : Sorry about my crappy english.
