What if you want to change two different phrases? I’m trying to play with the code and I can’t get the second phrase to work…

1. How do I link a topic to a forum (restrict it to the linked forum)?
You might have to use this plugin, but I am not entirely sure.

2. What does it mean to stick it to the front end?
Sticking a topic to the front, means to stick it above all forums instead of just the forum the topic was in.
3. how do I integrate BBPress with MemberPress, Member Press does not use WordPress Registration, it has its own.
Their site says the plugin should work seamlessly with bbPress, if it doesn’t work to your liking with bbPress, you may need to contact their support for help.
Hello:
Please treat like a complete newbie on this subject matter:
1. How do I link a topic to a forum (restrict it to the linked forum)?
2. What does it mean to stick it to the front end?
3. how do I integrate BBPress with MemberPress, Member Press does not use WordPress Registration, it has its own.
Hello there everyone, I have searched all over the Forum and many Sites but I had no luck finding any bbcode Editor. The only thing that I found was the “bbpress Post Toolbar” Plugin which wasn’t maintained anymore, I took the risk and tried it out. But then I found out that it was actually coded to work with HTML and as many of you already know, your participants cannot use all the HTML tags. It used some Codes used that was not allowed for a participant to use. When I was searching I came up with the Idea to edit the Toolbar so that it uses bbcode. But for WordPress to support bbcode I had to install another Plugin, “GD bbpress Tools”. Everything is working except the “Close HTML Tags”, where I really don’t know how to do it, I was hoping any of you guys could help me.
You can download the Edited Plugin here: http://bit.ly/1KramlM
I used 2 Plugins:
bbpress Post Toolbar
GD bbpress Tools
Thank you 🙂
Current version of bbPress does not support imports from phpBB 3.1, next major release will.

There are many different plugins available to efficiently manage WordPress multi-author blogs. You can get your needed plugin here http://goo.gl/W3VP.

This issue is most likely caused from your theme and the the styles it used for WordPress comments.
Link to site so I could give you some CSS.
Hi All,
Hoping someone out there can help me. I am converting my old website into wordpress and am trying to import my forum into bbpress but have run into a problem. I can’t seem to get the import to start.
I fill in the database details on the import page using the details from my config.php file and then click start, the page displays the “Starting Conversion” status and the loading circle is spinning but that is as far as it gets.
I had read all the pages and guides and forum posts I can find for a week but cannot figure out where I am going wrong.
The forum I am importing is a very small forum compared to other websites and I have tried leaving the page on this status for 4 hours without any change.
Is there somewhere I can find an error log that would tell me what is going on or would anywhere have any ideas would could be the cause of this
Im running phpbb 3.1.5
Wordpress Version 4.2.3
Thanks in advance

Well backing up your forums, for all the data on your site,you backup your database. Just the bbPress post types and data from all that, I might need to do some testing. It might just be using the export tool in WordPress Tools section, it might be using a plugin to backup one forum at a time, or whatever alternative I can find.
If you guys haven’t already try some troubleshooting.

Don’t know what you mean by FTP, the only I don’t think normal users on your site would know your sites FTP information. You can edit theme and plugin files though, but disallow that.
You can deactivate features by going to settings > forums in the WordPress backend.
The regular WordPress email a user gets when registering, and hopefully no confusion with BuddyPress??
@steo83
This topic was for issues made in bbPress version 1 which was a standalone version, the latest is a plugin for WordPress. The registration process on your site is mostly handled by WordPress. bbPress does have a registration form shortcode, but even that kind of piggybacks off of the WordPress registration form. If there is something wrong with your regular WordPress emails, which might include new comment emails for WordPress comments then you definitely need to hear from your hosting provider. If it is just the registration emails sent to users, you might need to contact WordPress support on their forums. https://it.wordpress.org/forums/
Hello there,
8 year after the making of this thread, i’m still having the same problem. I’m italian (sorry for my english), and i’m using and italian hosting (Aruba.it). I’ve tryed the email script in PHP (mailer.php) and it worked (even if the email arrived as spam), i’m using an email created on the service provider as email for WordPress…so what’s wrong? Looks like BBpress changed a lot and can’t work on the files as someone said in the thread cause they’ve changed. I’m also trying to contact the hosting, but still didn’t get any answer.
Any ideas?
wordpress version: 4.2.3
bbPress version: 2.5.8
site url: http://simplecerts.co/forums/
I’ve create a few forums on the back-end but only my first forum created displays on the page. What additional information would you need to potential identify the issue?
send the details to my email, but only for subscriber/participant role for now.

Are you running any special bbPress set up?
– I’m just running the default bbPress fresh from install
Does this happen to all user roles?
– Yes, it happens to all roles
I am going to assume on your fresh install you just have the latest stable version of bbPress and WordPress and no other plugins activated while using a default theme?
– Yes. I am using Twenty Fifteen theme. Up to date. No other plugins activated. The moment I activate bbPress users can no longer log out.
Thanks
Go to Appearance > Widgets in the WordPress backend.
whichever sidebar you placed the bbPress login widget, go to it, edit the widget settings and change the links in the widget.
Hello. I use bbPress on the latest wordpress version and running into trouble. I spent half of hour exploring bbPress source code but i couldn’t find the file which generates “Forgot password” and “Register” links in bbPress Login Widget. I really need to changed, for my site, to do not use wp-login page. I want to use my own configured pages /login and /register.
How can i do that?
Thank you very much!

Alright I might report this as a bug, but I need steps to duplicate the issue. And could you answer these questions to help me, know where you are at?
Are you running any special bbPress set up?
Does this happen to all user roles?

Yes, I did.
I created a fresh install of wordpress here: test.webshrimp.uk
The only plugin activated is bbpress and the logout doesn’t work. As soon as it is deactivated the logout link works. It is 100% bbpress causing the issue. I don’t know why it is appending redirect links to the logout button either.
Thanks
Its not a plugin specific error. Your server just can’t handle too much memory usage. WordPress may need more memory to use for your site. It has increased the minimum requirements before.
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/21646
You can follow the link I placed above then follow another link to show you some code to add to your wp-config.php file and see if that fixes your issue, in most cases it likely will. In some situations your server will cap the allowed memory so you may need to contact them about increasing it more.
If you want you can also google your issue and you will see countless posts on the wordpress.org forums about this, and they have the same exact answer.
Yeah this issue is not because of the bbPress plugin but your site does not have enough memory.

Hello,
Is there a final version of the script? I tried the one linked by @netweb on github, but it freezes after 2100 answers.
And if I try to import the users also, I get the following error:
