WordPress can only have one page titled page_name and use the slug page_name thus this then extends to bbPress.
I thought we had a bbPress ticket for this on Trac but I can’t find it right now https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org
There are a few bbPress signature plugins, maybe one of these will do what you are looking for
https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=signature+bbpress
It shouldn’t have done that 🙁
I’d suggest going to ‘Tools’ -> ‘Forums’ and resetting your forums which will delete all forums, topics and replies and optionally imported users and have another go at it.
You would probably be best setting up a test install of WordPress and bbPress to make sure the import finishes successfully.
If you find it keeps doing this please create a support ticket in Trac and I’ll take a look at why it isn’t working. https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/
Here is another way to do custom profile fields:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/user_contactmethods
bbPress will display any of of these fields you add or remove for a users profile page, as many of few as you like.
If when you decide to come back to this you’ll want to use the_excerpt
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt
There are varios examples scattered throught this site also
https://bbpress.org/forums/search/the_excerpt/
This could be an issue with your rewrite rules. To fix this try resetting your permalinks. In your WordPress Administration Screens navigate to Settings > Permalinks, select a different permalink structure and save. Then select your preferred permalink structure and save again.
There are a couple of weird things happen with bbPress and setting them to ‘private’ from the backend, we just haven’t tested it thoroughly enough.
There is a ticket on Trac somewhere, can’t find it at the moment though 🙁 https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org
There is also a plugin that gives each user their own forum that no other users can see, I am not sure if moderators have access to this forum or just the user and the keymaster.
The name of that plugin? I have no idea, I can’t remember the name of it, what I do remember is that this feature has nothing to do with the name of the plugin nor is the feature even included in the description. It is an idea not fully implemented and approx 75% of the code is just sitting in the background doing nothing. So if I remember what it is I’ll come back and update this. 😉
bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes
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, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

you can’t – wordpress and bbpress use a language called php to create the html code, so this code does not appear anywhere, it is made up of lots of function and css calls.
Sorry !
theme: Analytical Lite
the latest version of wordpress and bbpress
my font,background, and reply background is white
so all text is hidden.
i have tried applying the codes from styling crib into my theme css but it still dosent work.
does anyone have anycode to change the back ground
could be hundreds of reasons – most are to do with small errors in coding.
That latest version of my profile info is now on wordpress, suggest you crack that open, and see if you can alter it for a dropdown.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-profile-information/
yes, but you’d need some php, so depends what you mean by ‘I don’t really know PHP’
the plugin bbp-last-post plays with code in this area, so take a look at that
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-last-post/
and look at
bbpress/includes/common/wdgets.php for how to put a title in
Hi,
Is there an established way to show a short excerpt of the latest post in a forum, category, etc. under the “Freshness” title?
Other software like vBulletin support this: Steam Forums
If not, then I would love a point in the right direction of which hooks and functions, etc. I should start with.
I’m developing a custom WordPress theme which I have now extended to cover a custom bbPress theme, but I don’t really know PHP, so any help will be appreciated.
Thank you.
wordpress uses gravatar as it’s avatar system
http://en.gravatar.com/
so you change the gratatar there.
If you want to change the default
Dashboard>settings>discussion and at bottom of that page
If you want to use local avatars

I decided to move from SMF 2.0.7 to bbpress. The migration tool worked successfully but not without errors.
The main admin account on my forum was changed to Anonymous and every other person’s own changed to my account on wordpress.
How can I change all the imported post and replies to be posted by Anonymous instead of this incoherent one?
Link and demo = goo.gl/g0Tb1B goo.gl/kej5oO
N/B; users were imported but without their various post and replies assigned to them.
I don’t know what version of tinyMCE WP uses – I see that WP 3.9 is using tinyMCE 4 but not sure if it’s going to be 4.0.11:
WP 3.9 is currently now using 4.0.21, if 4.0.22 is released before WP 3.9 in ~4 days that might also make it into 3.9.

There’s probably a plugin for it but I would cheat and make an email address that forwarded to all of the email addresses I wanted. I’ve had a couple of email customisation plugins fail over various updates, so I don’t have any to recommend!
Otherwise, the new user notification emails are pluggable functions which means that you need to override them in a plugin. The function in question starts at line 1569 here: https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-includes/pluggable.php
Don’t edit that code – it will get overwritten in a future update – that’s just the function that you would use to make your own plugin (or what any plugin that does it will use).
And the conflict appears to be with WP e-commerce Version 3.8.13.4 When I deactivate that plugin the links magically appear, but it doesn’t display the number of users correctly.
WP e-Commerce has one known issue in 3.8.13 that I know of, it is fixed for 3.8.14 though this appears to be a different issue:
Trying to Edit Reply causes infinite redirect loop
Maybe post a question on their support forums here https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-e-commerce
Hi
I too am having issues with seeing the admin area of bbpress
Brand new site with no content yet
WordPress 3.8.2 running Twenty Thirteen theme.
Installed plugins:
Post Expirator
SimpleLinks
TinyMCE
WordPress FAQ Manager
WP-Filebase
WP e-Commerce
With these plugins active, I am able to get to the Forum activity on the dashboard, but that’s it. Interestingly, there is only one user in my WPinstall, but the forums activity is displaying 19?
And the conflict appears to be with WP e-commerce Version 3.8.13.4 When I deactivate that plugin the links magically appear, but it doesn’t display the number of users correctly.
We need to run WP e-commerce and would like to run bbpress if the conflict can be resolved.
Kindly help me. How to filter the topic using the custom fields.
I have created the custom fields using the GD Custom posts and taxonomy tools. I need to filter. I have followed this step but its not working.
http://internet-alacarte.com/adding-custom-fields-to-bbpress-topics-then-filtering-topics-by-custom-fields-using-views/
Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: I used Theme test drive plugin and found out:
TinyMCE works on Twenty Eleven and Twenty Twelve WP themes, but I can only use the “text” tab buttons. In fact there’s no “visual” tab at all.
When I switch back to WildCommunity (my current theme), I see this blank area with no buttons at all. Visual and text tabs are useless.
By the way I can type inside the blank box but text is white and I need to select (highlight) it to see what I wrote. If i hit “post” I’m perfectly able to post a topic. Text and links look fine. No problem. Now THAT is weird!
Any clue?
I have seriously looked everywhere and I am not sure what else to do. I am somewhat a noob to bbPress but not at all to the wordpress way of things. Iam a freelance developer. For the life of my I cannot find how to remove the subscription link from the pagination. The best I could do was float it to the right of the page, I do not want to display:none it because I want it show on replies. If anyone knows where I can remove this I would be very grateful. Thank you in advance.
Shane
PS here is a link to where I would like it removed:

Oh, WP 3.8.2 and BBPress 2.5.3, thanks!
Thank you, where do I insert this code though. I’m new to this whole wordpress thing.
