@Killerrabbit2
I did contact Robin, his response:
“The only fixes (http://www.rewweb.co.uk/reply-subscribed/
http://www.rewweb.co.uk/topic-subscribe/) I have are the ones in the original email.
If emails are coming from wordpress, then they should be ok from bbpress.
Do you have any plugins that could be causing conflict, or maybe your theme.
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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.”
Did anyone solve this?
So I’m having a problem with BBpress recently on my website http://www.sg-carterpack.com at my webhost (Site5) works with resource points and with using BBpress the resource usage has been increasing by the day.
If this plugin is disabled a daily resource usage is between 100 – 200 resource points, however when I enable BBpress it suddenly rises to 600 to 800 and even +900 resource points in a single day.
This of course makes the web hosts disable my website when it crosses the limit of 450 resource points per day.
I’ve already completely remove my wordpress installation, theme, and all plugins to then completely re-install everything from scratch as before I also had problems with BBpress not showing after updating to wordpress 4.0.
With that I before didn’t know it was caused by the BBpress I was already trying to optimise with using W3 Total Cache and Cloudflare to try to reduce it, yet this wasn’t the case. The website in general did became faster however the resource usage stayed the same.
So currently the forum is installed on new installation yet the forum is still hogging up resources so my question here is:
Is there a way to optimise this or a way to export the boards/forums to use in another forum application/plugin?
My current plugins that are active:
– AdSense Click-Fraud Monitoring Plugin
– BAW Login/Logout menu
– bbPress
– BulletProof Security
– CloudFlare
– W3 Total Cache
– WP User Avatar
For the rest it is using a slightly CSS edited version of the FLAT theme but besides that nothing else has been edited to wordpress itself.
Thanks in advance for any information in advance.
Ps: For more of a month I’m trying to post in this forum but after each thread I make it does not appear.
I’m building a website to discuss books and I created a FORUM page with 4 different forums, one for each book. I then created a topic for each chapter. However, when I open any forum, I can see ALL the topics I created listed (i.e. topics for chapters from a different book). How can I set it up so that topics are displayed ONLY in the forum where they belong? This error appears on all devices and OS.
I’m using WordPress 4.1, Buddypress 2.1.1, bbPress 2.5.4, and the theme is Catch Box. My site is http://www.bookbuk.com
Thanks!
Many spam filters strip messages that do not come from the correct address. So if your site is mysite.com and your email address in wordpress settings>general is fred@gmail.com then it is likely that messages will be dumped in transit. You need to set up email to come from your site eg fred@mysite.com, your hosting provider can help if needed.
Stephen, I too am getting errors while trying to import my phpbb forum into bbpress. I updated phpbb this morning to most recent version, no mods (v. 3.1.2). I just installed bbpress today in my WordPress site.
When I use the import tab under Tools > Forums, I enter my info, and here’s what I get:
*******************
WordPress database error: [Unknown column ‘forums.forum_topics’ in ‘field list’]

Please help, thanks!
sorry this support forum is manned by volunteers so we do this in our spare time and for free.
I presume you got this code from
http://www.digitspeak.com/blogging/wordpress/remove-bbpress-forum-profile-url-link/
when you say
the avatar reappears which i managed to get rid of – is there another workaround?
can you explain a bit more about
i managed to get rid of
what did you do?
It looks like my issue with the BCCs is being caused by the wpMandrill plugin I use to send emails through the Mandrill service
The Mandrill API previously couldn’t deal with BCC emails, it has been updated but it’s WP plugin hasn’t.
I tried this code offered by a user but it ended up sending two emails. One with no BCCs showing and one with the same BCCs showing problem. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-contribute-fixed-bcc
https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=avatar
there is a lots of plugins
Avatar allows you to create / edit custom avatars for your users right in the Admin Panel. Uses the same directory structure as BuddyPress,
Im new to this stuff so try not to lose me but Im running wordpress 4.1 with the sparkling theme and bbpress 2.5.4. My site is selfyelp.net. The registration emails and lost password emails are going through fine with gmail but with aol and hotmail I get nothing. My site and wordpress is hosted through godaddy so I guess I need to know what or where the problem is. Is it a bug or is it godaddy or is it the email providers? How can I fix it and is there any workaround? And yes I have checked the spam folders. Thanks (O and every other aspect of email is working fine through the site -just this prob)
Hello,
Our revision log for bbpress is turned on, but when I edit a subject in bbpress and add a reason for the modification, it does not show up in the log. It just says the subject was edited X amount of time ago by… and it stops there. So it doesn’t say by who or the reason why.
Any idea what could be causing this?
Wordpress 4.1
bbpress 2.5.4
Thanks!

The remove filter above I mentioned is not working for me, I even tried changing the priority 1 to 255.
The remove must have the same priority – see
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/remove_filter
Not quite sure how this would be achieved.
In essence you either create a post or you create a topic.
A post is displayed using your theme’s layout, a forum topic using bbpress’s templates, so essentially they are incompatible unless you add extensive coding to your theme to recognise and display.
If it is not possible can you tell me how to use default taxonomy (categories) with forum? I want to store some topics in these default WordPress category.
Sorry I don’t understand this question – please explain further
Wordpress Version: 4.1
Latest bbpress version
website: http://www.gizmoids.com
I want to show my forum topics as post on my website. Not all, jest some of them which I will choose.
Can I do this with bbpress? how?

Hi,
When I receive an email notification, if I’m logged in and I click the link it takes me directly to the thread/post in question.
However if I’m not logged in I simply get:
Sorry, the page your requested could not be found, or no longer exists.
Running WordPress 4.1 and bbpress 2.5.4
I have tested with the bundled themes and the issue persists.
Hi,
I’m having an issue with bb slides. On the desktop and at the back end it’s linking correctly but on mobile it links to brick-work.org/bb-slides/linkaddress. It only does this for the first slide, not the others which links correctly.
My wordpress version is 4.1, my bbpress version is 2.5.4 and my website is http://www.brick-work.org
Thanks in advance for any help!

@kmal91 – sorry but unless you find someone who has spent time with wishlist, I think you will struggle to get help.
For me to fix I’d need to spend at least 1/2 day installing and understanding wishlist.
But two thoughts
1. As a quick Q – if most/many of your forums are restricted, why do you need a link to the forum archive?
2. If you took bbpress out of wishlist, you could probably achieve the forum restriction using
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
You’d need to set up somne groups to mirror wishlist, but it might be an effective solution.
Something else is wrong with your wordpress, it shows your name in the admin bar and menu items.
I see a menu with one link only called “sample page”, so the top menu is showing.
In your menu’s edit screen, on the list with pages etc on the left side of the screen, does it say “Forums”, should be under “pages” and “posts”
Instead of making your own link you should select the forums here and click “add to menu” if you want them in your menu
If there is no “forums” option then there is something very wrong with your install or theme.
Hmm i am lrb I have no idea why it is doing that and thinking you are logged on.
If i go to View Forum from the create part it just takes me to the main page of wordpress and not to the forum i clicked on.

Ok I ave my WordPress 4.1 running Twenty Fourteen theme and I just downloaded bbpress.
My problem is that i cannot get the link to the forums to display. I never had this problem with simple press.
Anyway I even tried using the exact slug address and it just goes right back to my blogs fromt page and never gets to the forum. I am at a loss here I think what it told me was the address should be http://linksareblue.com/forums/forum/
That again just leads me back to the main blog page.
I am at a total loss here so any help would be appreciated.
Oh yeah i created 4 new forums there and cannot get any of them to display and yes i did publish them not just preview — however they dont even come up under preview.
Any help would be appreciated. I have 4 more sites to put up the same way and i am at a standstill until i get this all figured out.

Hello,
I’m using Gonzo theme with wordpress 4.1 and bbpress 2.5.4
Problem is;
Everything works fine except the frontend side. It is not possible to login with either owner account or a participator account, noone can create a new topic.
I can reply to opened topics, do anything on backend side however creating new topics is my problem.
I do not use any plugins related with roles or bbpress.
I’ve tried eliminating every plugin but it’s not related with it.
Do you have any suggestions for a solution?
Thank you

You may have better luck starting your own thread on this one. I had a similar problem, in that users see notifications (the little icon on the wordpress nav bar) but never get an email. I will mention that if you look closely at the ticket referenced and if you do have access to the code yourself you can find the line to examine in bbpress\includes\common\functions.php -> Line 1066 and roughly 1106. My smtp provider was not liking the noreply email address that was being constructed as the sender. I changed the lines I mention to a valid email address and everything started to work. Also worth mentioning, I am using WP Mail SMTP.
I have been dealing with the same problem. No user, not even keymaster, can edit their own posts. I tried what you suggested, but still not working. What version of WordPress and bbPress are you using?
Thanks,
mux
