@attuoz
since the bbpFauxData plugin doesnt work use the other ways listed in the article @sam-rohn posted.
especially use the XML file that was in the trac ticket he linked here
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2516
i think you need to the wordpress importer plugin to use the data from the XML file.
We have installed the latest bbPress + latest WP on our site. Also we have Disqus if this matter.
yeah Disqus not really
We read that bbPress is integrated with ‘Discussion’ settings from WP installation.
well it does but only the comment blacklist and comment moderation , not anything else yet.
more info on this link.

No answer here? Perhaps a plugin?
sorry its the holidays in the U.S. , we are spending time with families.
there is a plugin though!

This has crippled my site! When can we expect it to work with WordPress 4.1
I am running bbpress 2.5.4 on WordPress 4.0.1.
I am using bbpress as a private discussion board for each of my life coaching clients. Utilizing “bbP private groups”plugin by Robin Wilson, I basically assign each user to a private group that only them and I are a part of. I then create a Private Forum which I assign as only visible to their private group. Then I am able to have a thread of conversations by topic under each person in which we can respond back and forth.
A couple of my clients are having difficulties when posting replies. It seems that their longer replies are cutting off content when they submit a reply. I have tested and posted extremely long replies, so it is not a length problem. They say that they do not get logged out and the reply submits regularly. But when the page loads, only a portion of the reply is there. I am thinking it may be timing out and only saving what they typed up to a certain time?
Any idea as to why this is happening would be helpful.
Greetings from Alabama,
I am completely new to bbpress buy not WordPress. The problem I am having is the editor leaves alot to be desired and I have search the forum but solutions seem to be out dated. I have tried multiple plug ins but none seem o mimic the wordpress editor.
looking through the example forums I found one that looked close

Is there a tutorial I can follow to achieve this.
Hey again,
Running into some trouble customizing my bbpress forums via the bbpress.css file in the my child theme. I’m unsure if the pathway is incorrect, or maybe the intro to the file itself is incorrectly formatted. I do, however, know I was able to enqueue the custom loop-forums.php correctly with the functions.php properly pathwayed.
So, the pathway to the bbpress.css file is default>css>bbpress.css
In my childtheme, I have the bbpress.css file located avada-childtheme>css>bbpress.css
However, whenever I add code into the bbpress.css file after the
`/*
Theme Name: Avada-childtheme
Theme URI: Your website if you don’t intend to publish a separate site just for your theme
Description: A brief description of your child theme
Author: Jonah Hollis
Author URI: http://www.animusesports.com/
Template: Avada
Version: 1.0.0
Tags: whatever tags you might want to use for your child theme
*/
/* =Theme customization starts here
————————————————————– */
it corrupts the bbpress forums and breaks them. When I delete the file, the bbpress forums resume normal functionality. For the purposes of example, I’ll leave them broken.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Awesome I appreciate the help and time you have given so far and will most likely contact you after the silly season is over.
I will continue to have a play around with this for now as I feel I am close but just one little thing is missing.
If anyone else has any ideas or knowledge on this please feel free to contribute.
From what can gather this used to be “easy” to do prior to bbPress 2.2 when the dynamic roles were implemented. I have seen mention of some filters being able to manipulate map in some way to allow custom bbpress roles to be assigned to wordpress roles.
However as I am not a wizard on these things, I tend to blunder around trying to make sense of it.
@bob1nz
How can I assign non-standard bbpress roles with custom capabilities to non standard wordpress roles also with custom capabilities using the map so this is performed dynamically?
Sorry, but without major involvement in looking at this and how it is interacting with whatever plugins you are using, I cannot quickly come up with an answer.
If you want me to take a professional look after xmas, contact me via my website
http://www.rewweb.co.uk
@boertje – suggest you start your own thread
bbpress uses the default wordpress user setup, but adds a bbpres role to the wp-capabilities in user_meta.
So as long as there is a wp_user then on first login by that user bbpress will allocate the default bbpress role as set in Dashboard>settings>forums.
In think this plugin might be your solution, as it seems to create and update wordpress via AD
https://wordpress.org/plugins/active-directory-integration/
and then bbpress will use that wordpress database to add the role.
Thanks for your reply @robin-w
I tried that but it assigns the user the default role in bbpress.
I gave a dummy user the admin role in wordpress and what I want is for the user to be automatically given the admin role in bbpress as well.
Using the code you supplied it leaves the user with the default role.
How can I assign non-standard bbpress roles with custom capabilities to non standard wordpress roles also with custom capabilities using the map so this is performed dynamically?
Forgive me if this is the wrong area. I’m a pretty new WordPress user but I’m using it to build an Intranet. Management decided they wanted a message boards and I discovered bbPress so I thought I’d give it a go instead of using SMF.
However, I was wondering if there was any way in which I could create accounts and authentic login details via Active Directory (around 500 users) instead of creating all the accounts manually.
I did search for this but the threads were 4/8 years old so I wasn’t too confident in how relevant they are.
Thanks
Nothing in wordpress that I iknwo of.
Are you using a spam filter?
I’d also suggest you talk to your host provider – they’re usually very helpful, and it might be something in your setup ion the server
Next one is on the shortcodes you mentioned. https://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode
The bbpress codes work in a similar fashion to wordpress’s shortcodes and there are a few examples on that page as to how they work.
While they are useful I’m not entirely convinced you need them at this stage.
They can be used to put features of the forums on other pages that are not your main forums such as login, one category of your forums, tag clouds etc. You can use the [bbp-forum-index] on a page if you have created one but I’m pretty sure you shouldn’t need to unless that what you want.
I believe that plugin would still be fine with your current version of WP and bbP.
Had to split the reply as I don’t seem to be able to post more than one link per reply
Ok no worries.
Im going to give you some links to look at as they have some potentially useful info.
First one is for the permalinks https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks
I normally have these setup with post name checked in the settings but you are free to choose your own.
It also makes it easier to find posts and topics etc with “pretty” names in your url bar. My websites forums for example are at myurl/forums <– easy peasy. I never setup a page for bbpress and this worked out fine.
Please take another look. I did use the info and set up a custom link. I do get the Private forum, however, the same, no such page error occurs for the other three sub forums.
Do you mean you don’t want anyone else to start topics?******** Yes, that is correct. I do want them to reply to topics. Topics need to be started by admin only.
there is a plugin for bbPress although I haven’t used it. https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpressmoderation/ ************ I found it although it seems they say only is compatible with WP version 3.6.1 I have WP version 4.1. Can I try it or will it screw things up?
Hey there. You’ll need to write a small plugin to do this, as currently there is no classification of what roles a user has available to target.
I’ve created this Trac ticket and slated it for the 2.7 release. It won’t be too difficult for us to make this easier for you in a future release.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2737
I’m not an expert on these things but I just setup bbPress and I never setup a page for it.
To add it to my menu I got the page url for it and added a custom menu item pointing to that url.
I had a quick look at your website and the forums link in the menu appears to point to yourwebsite/?forum=forums which points to a page not found.
Try using this link instead yourwebsite/?post_type=forum as it seems to show the forums page at least, although I cannot see any categories or forums on it.
I do not want topics created from the front end
Do you mean you don’t want anyone else to start topics?
I will need to approve and post all replies to a topic
there is a plugin for bbPress although I haven’t used it. https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpressmoderation/
To allow users to register on your website you need to enable that feature. Its in the dashboard under Settings->General-> Membership.
Since WordPress 4.0, this happens with any plugins that have complete and updated translations. If you modify them, WordPress won’t know about it.
How would I removed the metabar from the topic page without removing it from the rest of the wordpress post pages

I found this
/**
* Return a map of WordPress roles to bbPress roles. Used to automatically grant
* appropriate bbPress roles to WordPress users that wouldn't already have a
* role in the forums. Also guarantees WordPress admins get the Keymaster role.
*
* @since bbPress (r4334)
*
* @return array Filtered array of WordPress roles to bbPress roles
*/
function bbp_get_user_role_map() {
// Get the default role once here
$default_role = bbp_get_default_role();
// Return filtered results, forcing admins to keymasters.
return (array) apply_filters( 'bbp_get_user_role_map', array (
'administrator' => bbp_get_keymaster_role(),
'editor' => $default_role,
'author' => $default_role,
'contributor' => $default_role,
'subscriber' => $default_role
) );
}
Is there any way to add extra roles in that without editing the plugin files directly?
ok, the software is held in files, the content (forums, topics etc) is held in the database.
Please read
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
for a long explanation of how wordpress is structured.
I believe you issue is as simple as that the level of user that you are does not permit you to se the ‘backend’ – that is the forum stuff in the dashboard – so deleting and recreating the plugin will not help you.
The answer I think is to go into phpmyadmin, and edit your entry to give yourself permission as per previous answer.
The link above should give you sufficient to be able to find your entry and edit it.
I’m seeing this problem as well with bcc header. Users can see all the other users email addresses that are subscribed to a thread even though it says it is a bcc.
I use Siteground.com as a host. Siteground support says it is a WordPress or plugin issue.

Hello!
I would love to make it so, to post on other forums, users have to put a post in a Welcome forum, to introduce themselves. Does anyone know a plugin to make this work?
Thanks!
