@johnjamesjacoby
Thx for your reply. I’m holding back on the migration in the meantime.
Other question, assigning a forum moderator to a forum (subforum not category) doesn’t seem to work. I assigned a user by his WordPress Username.
Hi Installation went ok. When pressing the Forum button things looks ok and the way i want it.
But when choosing/pressing a specific forum the wordpress the primary widget and secondary widget area appears(left and right around the forum) so forum space shrinks in the middle 🙂
you could have a look at http://skunck.dyndns.org
Did create a new page with [bbp-forum-index] with Template options Full width, no sidebar.
Permalinks is still on Plain in my website… Please help !
or when using buddypress:
BP Emails for BBP
would be nice if the function of this plugin could be integrated in BBPress.
If this is an issue, then it will be caused by my private groups plugin, can you re-post this on my plugin’s support forum, and I’ll pick it up and progress from there
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbp-private-groups
Hello, I’m not sure if I found a bug or it is a feature. I’m using WordPress website as a forum. I have three private groups where each have access for different forums. Under one category I have four forums – one group has access to three forums and other to the last one. When someone will put a post to one of the forums, person from group which is not permitted to see the post, can see in freshness column, that someone has wrote something (still he is not able to see the post but in fact he can see the action). Two screenshots for picture the issue:

On pictures I’m logged into account which don’t have permissions to view the forum, to which post has been added. I’ll be grateful for any hint how to solve this issue.
Wordpress version – 4.7.1
bbPress version – 2.5.12
bbP private group version – 3.2.10

Hello,
I would like to know if it would be possible to have WordPress and BBPress using the same tags?
I thank you in advance
Kind regards
4.7/4.7.1 and bbpress 2.5.12 work
If you have these then :
1. what php version are you running?
your host provider can answer this
or you can install
https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-php-version/
If it’s php7 then come back
otherwise
It could be a theme or plugin issue
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 twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
p.s. @reedy, to get Slack up and running to join the #bbPress channel sign up here:

@reedy I’m here if you need help. Can also use the #bbpress channel in WordPress’s Slack instance.
Beta 2 is out to fix these embarrassing little oversights.
The upgrade tools can be ran manually by visiting: Tools > Forums (they are at the bottom)
On WordPress.org, I manually ran a custom, stripped down version of this same tool, but mostly because 8 million users is a lot to trust without some supervision.
The WP Codex is a great starting point for learning how to do things like register a custom taxonomy … it comes to mind you might also want to explore plugins like Posts 2 Posts (which would offer an alternative way to go about this task).
bbpress uses wordpress structure which works on a hierarchy, so a topic/post has a forum/post parent.
Would take a lot of customisation to make bbpress work differently to that – loads of functions would need total re-write.
Off-hand I can’t see how this would be achieved.
@Thomas_Camaran first do this fix then do the upgrade
When I search my Forum I get a 502 error: the page request was canceled because it took too long to complete.
At first I thought it was only when you tried to search multiple words. But then it did work when I tried “crash cart” and “cell phone” and it did not work when I tried “annual” or “history”. So it seems very inconsistent.
WordPress version:4.6.2
bbPress version:2.5.11

Also please note that that ticket bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2685 that is referenced is fixed in version 2.6 of bbPress. So for the next version you will no longer need this.

Hello, I am having great difficulty getting any widgets to appear in my Forums sidebar. I believe now that it relates to the page I have bbPress running on. After initially installing bbPress I later added a new page and added [bbp-forum-index] as directed to do in the documentation. However, when I’ve tried to use the Forums page id to exclude the Forums link from automatically appearing in the footer it did not work. Also I had to use (.bbpress) in my css to style the header of the page as .page-id- was not working.
My issue still occurs when tested using Twenty Seventeen.
Just had a very long talk with Godaddy. Registration emails are simply not being generated. Other emails work. Registration emails do not. May have to re-install WordPress.
i’ve remove my 2.6 aplha and instal 2.6 beta 1 after the fix on an testforum with 120 forums and 500 posts
the install runs fast (few seconds) it looks like there is no converting in the database to convert usermeta to postmeta. There is no big performancechange
i had understand that beta 1 is an good performance update. And makes Bbpress faster for big forums. Am i right?
1. I’ve confirmed this is a wider issue with ALL wordpress registrations. It is not a BBpress issue.
IF SOMEONE ELSE is having trouble with registration emails, you should test general WordPress user registrations:
– make sure “Anyone can register” is checked in Settings/General
– go to yourwebsite.com/wp-admin
– click register
– see if you get the registration email.
2. There’s a discussion from three months ago (~October 2016) about Godaddy blocking WordPress registration emails b/c they think they are spam. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/godaddy-internet-community-ib212-filtering-wordpress-registration-emails-as-spam/
3. There’s a nifty plug-in to check email from your site called “Check Email”. I’m able to get emails sent from this plug in. So it seems likely that I may also be a victim of registration emails being blocked as spam.

I will post more results as I get them.
not my area of expertise, but this plugin seems to offer this
https://wordpress.org/plugins/multiple-domain/
otherwise as this is more of a wordpress thing, suggest you try their support forums
Quick one on your NOTE: Yes that was a previous version of the plugin that no longer exists.
user creation is a wordpress thing – bbpress is not involved. It only allocates the default role on first login.
Would be worth you googling ‘wordpress register email not working’, but it can be a host thing, and is worth talking to your host provider about.
There is this plugin which might solve both, I haven’t used it so can’t say
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-auto-close-topics/
Really having a hard time with Registration emails. I’ve spent most of the weekend getting nowhere.
WordPress 4.7.1
bbPress 2.5.12
Theme bbPress (Twenty Ten)Version: 1.4.1
Emails are working from the same wordpress installation. I have the “Check Email” plug-in installed, and use to confirm that emails are working fine.
When a user registers, the user is created, but the email never seems to get out.
Any help or troubleshooting advice is sincerely appreciated. Thanks!

NOTE: A topic by this name seems to exist (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registration-email-not-being-sent-new-issue/page/2/), but it’s over a year old, seems to deal with people whose servers are blocking email, and makes references to files that no longer exist in the plugin (bb-includes/pluggable.php).
