the Private Groups plugin needs bbPress so both.
Robins got you just in case you forgot about the topic in his plugin support forum
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do-i-need-bbpress-as-well#post-6308430
im kind of leanging that you might need some custom development for this

but im not sure if this kind of plugin is what you are after

highlight and search these links in google
Hi everyone. I am currently working on a Turkish site which uses Buddypress as well.
The translation here seems to be a great start, but it seems to be incomplete as well:
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/2.5.x/tr/default
Do you by any chance know of a more complete version (if I understand correctly. Cagatay has combined multiple ressources / “I download bbpress turkish files from various sources”)
Would you mind sharing your language files with me? Maybe we can alspo work together in translating the remaining fields so we all end up with a complete set in the Turkish language.
All the best.
as long as attachments means something like media like images and vides
bbPress does not support this unless you have another plugin from the WordPress repository.
contact the plugin author of the plugin you are using for support
or get some custom development done here
http://jobs.wordpress.net/
theres a bunch of plugins that do this type of thing
badge OS like you said
mycred can show some badges
achievements for wordpress also does this
userpro has this kind of thing too
do a search and see what is the best fit for you
Hi, my needs are pretty simple. I’m looking for an alternative to google groups. I need a place in my WordPress site where only members can post and only members can read the posts. And I need a way for members to receive one email each time there is a new post. There needs to be an archive that members can consult to dig around and find a particular post from the past.
I have had various frustrations with google groups and yahoo groups. In theory the way they work would suit our group just fine, but in practice, there have been some problems, so now it’s time to look for an alternative.
As you can see, I don’t need to do anything fancy. My question is, shall I install the Private Groups plugin, the bbpress plugin, or both?
Thank you.
Hi, I tried to file that on trac, but it seems not working today… anyway the issue is very simple. When notifications are sent, the from email address is composed as:
$do_not_reply = ‘<noreply@’ . ltrim( get_home_url(), ‘^(http|https)://’ ) . ‘>’;
but for blogs installed in subdirs that creates wrong email address. It should be better to follow the technique used by WordPress, which extracts the domain name and uses and address wordpress@mydomain.com.
More, some providers does not allow emails from unknown mailboxes and blog owners are used to register a mailbox for “wordpress”, so it should be better to use that address, or let to specify a different one.
Thank you, Stefano.
Yes, the area on my wordpress dashboard for bbpress labeled as “forum” is no longer there. My forum is still there and functioning on my main page.
Hello,
I moved my site to a new server a couple of months back. My forum and all functionality is still present. However, in my WordPress dashboard the plugin “Forum” tab is missing for me to make any adjustments to my settings. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling BBPress and the issue persists. Any idea how I can get BBPress back in my WordPress Dashboard? Thanks.
The only plugin I found so far that could be of use is the BadgeOS plugin and BadeOS Community Add-on. But I want the badges to appear under the users avatar, for example like under my avatar on this page that I am posting a topic in.
I asked for some help here, and they provided some code which I dont know how to make use of it : https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-can-i-get-badges-to-appear-under-users-avatars-in-forum-topics?replies=3#post-6301447
what levels for both wordpress and bbpress are you using for your dummy account, and what other plugins are you using?
bbpress allows you to build and use templates, so yes it is technically possible
I’d suggest you post a project on

I’m very much a newbe to the world of WordPress and as I installed a few plug-ins at the time, I happend to give the blame to bbPress. Thanks again !
1. Custom vBulletin BBCodes are not supported eg. [youtube] – You will have to manually change these yourself either before importing in vBulletin or after importing into bbPress using phpMyAdmin.
Indeed this is now fixed to work with vBulletin’s default YouTube BBCodes:
Specifically the two following BBCodes are the only ones supported (many vB forums used to use custom BBCodes and this was primarily the main issue here)
// Replace '[video=youtube;$1]$2[/video]' with '$2"
// Replace '[video=youtube_share;$1]$2[/video]' with '$2"
For example [video=youtube;eOUq4Z6R7xI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfW2UJMIQvQ[/video] will be replaced with just the YouTube link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfW2UJMIQvQ, bbPress (and WordPress) will automatically embed the video using the direct URL.
2. All ‘Ordered Lists’ will be displayed as numerical lists.
This is also fixed
3. You may find extra page breaks <br> and paragraph <p> elements in topics and replies and is less than ideal and is from the way the BBCodes are converted during the forum import conversion. You will find these primarily around ‘blockquotes’ and ‘lists’
This is fixed also 🙂
#1 If I create the exact bbcodes in BBPress prior to the import, I assume this would rectify this area correct?
Yes, modify your custom BBCodes to either a) Match the supported vBulletin BBCode above or b) completely strip the vBulletin BBCode so just the YouTube link remains 🙂
I have updated the codex article and removed quite a few things that were listed there that are now fixed including full support to convert user passwords and the items in red in this image are fixed and/or supported 🙂
With that said “some” of these features are not in the currently shipped bbPress 2.5.4 such as Forum and Topic subscriptions and guest/anonymous topic and reply support, I’m going to post an announcement here on the site in the coming day or two on the improvements and where and how to get this test release.
I was building a website with wordpress (including the bbpress plugin) and decided to make a dummy user account in order to test everything out. It would not let me log in with the dummy account, sometimes it came back with a message about “too many redirects” but most times it just timed out and went nowhere. It would however let me log into the site with my “admin” account. I deactivated all of the plugins and then re-activated them one at a time, logging out and attempting to log in with the dummy account after each one. I was able to log in with the dummy account after each one was re-activated…until I re-activated bbpress. Any ideas on what the issue could be?
see if this helps
https://github.com/robkk/bbPress-Hierarchical-Forum-and-Category-Layout
download the .zip file and upload the loop-forums.php file to your bbpress folder in your child theme.
you create a category by create selecting new forum in the WordPress backend and changing the type to category.
to put forums under each category make sure all the forums you want under a specific category has the parent as that category
the docs should help out alot for learing how to use a child theme for your bbPress installation

@korobochkin
in the trac they are trying to add this feature and at least an option to disable it.

if you do not want pingbacks and trackbacks remove any code that is for the comments section when you create a bbpress.php and see if that fixes it.
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/
this is not CSS its mostly PHP
from what it looks like just copy the templates the userpro plugin author gave you and place it a folder called bbpress in your child theme. the url to it should be wp-content/themes/avada-child/bbpress.

info on creating a child theme

thats not CSS at all …most of its PHP
it seems like you just put the PHP files that the userpro plugin author gave you and put it into a directory named bbpress in a child theme and it should work fine from there.
so the url to the directory should be wp-content/themes/avada-child/bbpress
if you havent created a child theme , here hows to
