ok, several ways to go about it, these are in no particular order
a ) as it is a paid theme with presumably support – ask the theme provider – most will say it is out of scope, but occasionally you get lucky.
b) see this link – item 8

c) this plugin is old but still works, and lets you try different theme templates to see if they work better

Hello,
I have the latest version of WordPress and BBPress installed on my website but for some reason the topics aren’t showing and it’s just a blank page when you click on General Discussion.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance
Hello,
So i am wondering is there any easy way to create a new forum/sub-forum automatically for every new wordpress post? For example lets say i am creating a new post for a movie named ‘Iron Man’ , what i want is when the post ‘Iron man’ is posted in wordpress , a new forum named ‘Iron Man’ is posted on bbpress forum automatically.
There is already a plugin for creating a new topic for new wp post but unfortunately thre is none for creating a new forum for a new wp post.It would be great if someone could guide me how to create a new forum for every new wp post, Thanks 🙂
The next version is ready. As you’ll read above originally I was going to rely on a plugin for the main menu. I realized that’s silly and added a built in simple responsive menu to the latest version (v1.1.1).
Also, I’ve decided that the theme will actually be called “Rain” and not “Flutterum.” Because I could create other themes in the future, all under the Flutterum umbrella.
Hopefully the free “Rain” theme will be in the WordPress Themes repository soon. Until then, you can download it at Flutterum.
Hello,
I just put up a new bbPress community to help promote bbPress, but also to give away a simple, responsive, fast theme.
https://www.flutterum.com/forums/topic/version-1-0-released/
This is my first bbPress (or WordPress) theme. Future versions may include things like a main menu but for now, you will see that I suggest that you simply use any WordPress responsive menu plugin.
I hope folks find this useful. It can be difficult at times to find a fast, minimal, and free theme for bbPress.
I’m using the latest WordPress and installed the latest BBpress.
Installed fine but can the life of me work out what is the URL link to access BBpress within WordPress as a user. http://www.domain.com/forums ?
Very simple question why is this not mentioned in the installation notes.
I need to know if BBpress sends any data to thrid party or wordpress
No
and does bbpress set cookies?
no, but wordpress set a cookies fro login which bbpress uses
Cookies
Hello, due to GDPR I need to know if BBpress sends any data to thrid party or wordpress. Thanks
ok so the issue is your theme is not showing the sidebar on mobiles, not that bbpress is doing anything wrong.
I’d suggest you add login and logout to your menu
either

or
install
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>login
hmmm…
Titles are not put in that part as default – bbpress uses the theme/page to do that, so I would not expect to see an <h2> tag after the <div id="bbpress-forums" class="bbpress-wrapper">
do you have a theme or plugin that is altering bbpress display?

a combination of
bbp style pack
and
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
transfer this to your pc and edit as required
and save
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

bbPress Notify (No Spam)
Hi, We need some help!
We have created am API to create a new topic or post a reply. And trigger a notification when the topic is created or the reply is successfully posted.
The topic is created successfully and the reply is posted without problem. However, the notification is not triggered.
It appears that our REST API has the correct endpoints which made it to post bbPress topics/replies.
But this happens (topic/reply creation) on “WordPress level” rather than bbPress level.
Does anyone have any insights or tips on how to trigger the notification at the bbPress level?
Thank you so much!

I’m working on my first WordPress site, which will primarily have several forums. Users can create topics and reply to topics others created. Among other things, there will be something like a “Ride Reports” forum where users can talk about rides they’ve been on and others can comment on them. I think (hope?) I’m close to ready to go.
So far, I’ve avoided incorporating blogs because, frankly, I don’t know what they would add. Can anyone tell me what a blog would be used for?

Hi there,
Is it possible to use the forum title rather than the forum id when using shortcode to display the forum? In my website I am using a plugin which has virtual pages and I would like the user to search for the title of the forum they want and then it to be displayed – by means of shortcode.
Just in case, I would like to add that duplicate naming of the fourms would not be an issue in my website (it is not possible for the user to create a fourm with the same name).
Also, is there a way in which I am able to query the forum index? If so, am I able to check if a forum with this name (used in the query) already exists? If it doesn’t I would like the user to be able to start it, is this also possible?
WordPress version 5.6.2
bbPress version 2.6.6
Thanks in advance!
When the task is run “Recalculate parent forum for each topic and reply” it times out and the wordpress implementation loses access to the database. Now our anonymous users see no replies in the forum.
Is there any way to run this reindexing without causing this hiccup?
hmmm…
