I am currently using the Twenty Twenty theme. The theme is causing jumbled text on the forum page.
Forum Page
I have tried both bbPress and BuddyBoss. I have the same issue. I contacted BuddyBoss, they stated there is an issue with the Twenty Twenty theme. I contacted the admins at the Twenty Twenty theme. They told me to go to bbPress for support. I cannot locate the issue in the code.
See Twenty Twenty theme ticket
I also completed the additional troubleshooting steps:
- Deactive plugins – this did not solve the issue
- Themes – switching the themes fixes the issue. I contacted the Twenty Twenty theme authors. They told me to contact you.
- Selecting the default permalinks – I am already using the default permalinks
- Repair Forums – this did not solve the issue
- Using WP Debug – no debug issues appeared
- Diagnose Javascript errors – there are no javascript errors appearing
I have basically tried everything besides resetting my WordPress website. Nothing seems to work.
Hello. I hope I’m in the correct forum. If not, I apologize.
I am new to forum plugins. I downloaded bbPress and have it installed. I also have a WordPress blog plugin I’m currently using as well. In order for the forum plugin to display I had to create a page and therefore is being displayed along the top of my blog as Discussion Forum (changed from Forum).
Note: I also have Forum which is the Asgaros Forum plugin. You can ignore this. It is there only for comparison purposes.
What I would like to do is unassociate bbPress from my Blog and make bbPress totally standalone. Is this possible? If so, can you provide me with instruction?
Thank you very much!
Charles
Hi
I have received solution from UM support.
If you want to use UM plugin with bbPress & BuddyPress you just have to remove filter to disable UM avatar
Checkout this link for more details.

Hello,
My plugin GD Mail Queue – https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-mail-queue/ works with bbPress, and it allows the use of custom SMTP, it can queue bbPress notifications as individual emails, and it can wrap emails in HTML for better email presentation.

bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topic/Reply Display
item 17
ok, yes that should give you the forum button on the dashboard.
it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.
Plugins
If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

Then come back
if three is another keymaster then they can make you a keymaster.
If there are no keymasters, then install
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>bug fixes
and you will see the option to make yourself keymaster.
After you have done this, you can deactivate and delete the style pack plugin, but you might want to check out it’s features.
I installed bbpress and it is activated – when I go into users there is a forum users option for every other wordpress user other than me the administrator.I did not get a welcome page. I have no option to edit my role under my users – I can do this for all the other users on my site.
I use X-theme which is supposed to support this plugin. I have a feeling this has to do with the fact that I am not listed at the keymaster, but there seems to be no way to do this.
I am not good at coding or knowing where to put code, so if it involves any please be very specific – where it needs to go, what to type in etc…
Thanking everyone in advance
Private groups
and look at topic permissions
strongly suspect the issue is that you are running on a staging site, so conflict between the actual url and the one in the wordpress database
users need to register, bbpress just uses wordpress registration, so you have lots of options for doing this.
hmmm…
bbpress just uses wordpress registration, so users should be able to just register and get participant access.
what have you got set in
dashboard>settings>forums>Roles?
Hi, for my business website I’m trying to get a working forum together, I’m using WordPress.com, and I’ve got bbpress and bbpstyle pack active right now.
The issues I keep getting prevent users who do not have WordPress accounts from registering, it redirects the users to the WordPress login page and doesn’t send an e-mail.
In my Settings, if I remove the ability to login with WordPress accounts, it functions perfectly, but I lose access to editing and updating the site, I’m lost on how to get this functional.
it could be a theme or plugin issue

Still waiting to see if people using the Forums are having any issues using them.
not sure what this means 🙂
I would like to change the font color against the maroon top bars, from black to yellow, or grey, but I am not finding the right tab to do so.
probably theme related, but link to an example on your site please.
Why are there tabs for setting up logins/logim failures, if logging in is accomplished at the WordPress level?
bbpress has some widgets and shortcodes that let users enter username and password. these details are passed to wordpress security to go through login.
Thanks! I went with the bb style pack, and that worked for removing the “Private: Private:” before the Forum/Topic titles.

‘Private’ is a wordpress/bbpress conflict – and it is annoying !!
either
Put this in your child theme’s function file –
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
or use
Code Snippets
add_filter('private_title_format', 'ntwb_remove_private_title');
function ntwb_remove_private_title($title) {
return '%s';
}
or use
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forum Display
Put this in your child theme’s function file –
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

add_filter ('bbp_reply_admin_links', 'rew_remove_reply') ;
add_filter ('bbp_topic_admin_links', 'rew_remove_reply') ;

return $links ;
}
hmmm.. this seems to be wordpress capability and looks difficult to remove.
The best I could find is
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/29000/disallow-user-from-editing-their-own-profile-information
but it would need some work to make it work for bbpress
not sure, but try this (untested)
add_filter ('bbp_get_user_edit_profile_url' , 'rew_remove_edit' ) ;
function rew_remove_edit () {
return ;
}

bbpress just uses wordpress login, there is no ‘double security’ sorry, no idea what the above is trying to say, or what exactly the problem is.
Perhaps you could start by stating what you are trying to achieve?
bbPress version 2.6.6.
Wordpress version 5.7.1
website…79Exies.com
Wondering if it is necessary to have login/pw for bbPress forums on a site that already has WP Security login/pw coverage. It seems redundant, and especially so for a site with a maximum of 325 users, though we only have 93 right now.
I can share some email back and forth I have had with a classmate/colleague, which can better explain the shortcomings and non-syncing we faced.
Thanks,
Steve
I would like to edit the wording of some of the bbPress prompts and messages. As I understand this can be done using a language file as described here.
https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/bbpress-in-your-language/
I’m a little confused though since I am not actually changing from English to another language. Since I’m not changing languages what does the process look like? I went here to download the English version but there’s English (Canadian, UK, Australian, or South African versions) Which further ads to the confusion as to which language file I should download and edit 🙁
Any idea on how to go about editing the bbPress prompts and messages in the same language I am using?

Hi, the Username field on the bbPress login page is different from the Password field (the same width but not the same height). This causes the Username to be halfway “cut off” (visible) on smartphones.
I am using WordPress 5.7.1 and bbPress 2.6.6
Thanks
Basie martins
you either want
dashboard>settings>forums>anonymous if you want anyone to be able to post
or add registration – bbpress uses wordpress registration, so anyone of then methods here will work.
https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-allow-user-registration-on-your-wordpress-site/
there is also a bbpress registration login which includes registration and bbpress shortcodes
[bbp-login] – Display the login screen.
[bbp-register] – Display the register screen.
[bbp-lost-pass] – Display the lost password screen.
