I still have the problem on my site, and am not using WishList Member.
I tried a clean install with all plugins I am using, and maybe the order of installing was different, but on the clean install I had no problem, until I did a database restore. Something in the db messes it up. I can’t see where in the code the showing of the first post (or any) is checked against some condition.
Did the past updates of bbpress and other plugins too (not the latest wordpress though) and the behavior is still the same.
Hi there!
The bbPress doesn’t works correctly with SMThemes theme Architecture, but with standard WordPress Theme it works well.
I want use bbPress with Architecture theme, but I can’t find information about it. Yes, I’m googling it and trying to optimize theme myself, but it doesn’t works.
In WordPress Theme – http://itmages.ru/image/view/1411812/5e541222
In Architecture Theme – http://itmages.ru/image/view/1411811/16a608ca
Help me please.

Here’s my setup:
Wordpress version: 3.8
bbPress version: 2.5.2
Operating system: Linux
Web server: Apache
Theme: html5blank
PHP version: 5.3.3
Notable plugins: w3tc, buddypress, jetpack, gravityforms, wordpress seo
Thanks!
Here’s my setup:
WordPress Version: 3.8
bbPress Version: 2.5.2
Operating System: Linux
Web Server: Apache
Theme: Twenty Twelve child theme
PHP Version: 5.3.3
Thanks for looking into this!
I have the same problem (including all posts classed .even) on two very different setups, here’s what I’ve got:
Environment 1:
* WordPress 3.8
* bbpress 2.5.2
* CentOS (Linux)
* Apache / cpanel
* heavily customized theme loosely based on Twenty Twelve
* PHP 5.4.19
* tons of plugins, many custom, major ones include buddypress and w3total cache
Environment 2:
* WordPress 3.7
* bbpress 2.5.2
* Ubuntu (Linux)
* Apache (no cpanel)
* bbpress Twenty Eleven (a child theme of Twenty Eleven with small adjustments for better bbpress integration)
* php 5.3.10
* no plugins except w3total cache
Both sites have reply threading enabled.
If I understand you correctly – the breadcrumb is showing
shop>forum
Presume you want something else other than shop?
The problem is that the shop page is your home page – ie if you just have http://www.ladiesbalance.com – the shop page is where you land
In essence you need to change where your wordpress site starts from (probably in your theme), and then the forum will go there.
I recently installed bbPress over at Cutie Mark Collectables, and I’m having issues with any links which include /reply/edit (i.e. http://www.cutiemark.co.uk/forums/reply/85/edit/). They appear to go into an infinite redirect loop.
Editing original topics (http://www.cutiemark.co.uk/forums/topic/looking-for-trouble-pinkblue-rainbow-dash/edit/) works fine.
The issue appears to be related to the WordPress e-Commerce plugin from GetShopped, because the edit function works when this is turned off. However, turning off my store isn’t a viable fix so I’m looking for a workaround e.g. a way to turn off using permalinks for the edit reply option.
I’m using this stack:
– WordPress 3.8
– bbPress 2.5.2
– Linux
– PHP 5.5.6
– Apache 2.4
Others have reported this issue and not received any support so I’m hoping I can get a hand here.
Hello,
In the forum setting, it says:”Partner with a WordPress Page and use Shortcodes for more flexibility.”
How can I do that?
Thanks,
I have found a solution for me. I have installed and run the “User role editor” plugin and the forums tab is in my wordpress dashboard again.
I have observed precisely the same problem on my Android Motorola Droid HD Maxx. In my case I defined a page containing the [bbp-forum-index] shortcode for the Forums top level. If I go to that page in either of the latest versions of IE or Firefox, I get a nice page showing the Forum categories. Using my Android phone, I get a page containing the single word ‘Forums’. As the OP noted, if I go directly to a Forum category or topic all is well.
My WordPress version is 3.8, bbPress version is 2.5.2. I am using a copied and modified version of the TwentyFourteen theme.
Using latest wordpress 3.8 and bbpress 2.5.2..
Using the 2014 template.
Did searching but didn’t see my exact problem mentioned?
I am new to WP/BBPress so maybe a newb issue. Only been 3 days..
Windows/OSX/Chrome/IE/Safari work fine.
Chrome/Safari on iOS on an iPad seems to work fine.
Chrome/Safari on iOS on a phone does not. If you go straight to the forums link
you just get a section that says Forums and thats it.
Android is unknown…
If you go straight to a forum section or a forum post, that works fine.

Thank you for the link. I’ve created the ticked https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2500
Nice ticket number in the new years eve 😛
Create a new ticket on Trac and we can take a closer look at it 🙂

I haven’t come across this situation before as I have never used the WP United bridge.
I suspect it is because of the now shared users, presumably how the users are getting mapped presumably WordPress users.
If you are able to get all your users correctly mapped in the phpBB user table that should give you a workable import scenario.
Is there a way to have WP United readd all the WordPress users back into the phpBB table?
(Kind of like an uninstall of WP United it restores everything back to standard)
I haven’t seen any recent reports of what you describe.
What versions of WordPress & bbPress are you using?
It could also be an issue with your rewrite rules. To fix this try resetting your permalinks. In your WordPress Administration Screens navigate to Settings > Permalinks, select a different permalink structure and save. Then select your preferred permalink structure and save again.
Hi, What if I do not delete an user but just want to attribute his posts to other one?
The only way to do this at the moment is one by one manually.
Maybe have a look in the WordPress Plugins for a plugin that supports ‘Custom Post Types’ to change posts authors if you have to many to do individually.
Under the WordPress ‘Users’ panel does your administrator account have the bbPress ‘Keymaster’ role?
I also do not know what changes you have made so until you update both WordPress & bbPress you are basically out of luck.
This is the reason why you should never change the core files in WordPress or bbPress.
I would suggest you create yourself a test install of WordPress locally, add your theme and plugins and compare the changes and start to implement the changes you need in an upgrade friendly way such as child themes and custom additions to functions.php etc.
is there anyway to change the font color, it doesn’t look very good with my theme

i am using the latest version of wordpress
theme is hueman
OK, I had a success!
Sort of.
What I did was…
- backup everything.
- in your current wordpress, export all data to xml file
- if your bbPress was deeply integrated like mine, you will not have a separate bb_users table. If so, export wp_users table via phpMyAdmin and save it.
- upgrade bbPress from v1.0.3 to v1.2 as per <fontadoni> instructions
- log into bbPress admin panel and let it upgrade the database. I got an error there, but whatever.
- install clean WordPress with same user/pass. Make sure to keep old wp-config.php file.
- if you had integrated users as per #3, go to phpMyAdmin, delete the only (admin) user from wp_users and import your original wp_users table. Check if you can log in. You should to.
- in WordPress admin page, import xml backup of your previous posts. Let it download all media… You will need to install importer plugin. You should be able to see all your blog posts now. On first run, some posts were missing… If so, delete all posts and repeat.
- install bbPress plugin.
- Go to admin page -> permalinks and set “date and name” (at least for me it was needed to be able to access forums at /forums/ instead of seeing 404)
- Go to tools -> Forums -> Import. Provide database login info. It should convert and import your old posts…
- Your forums and all users should be available now. Check if posts have corrects users.
- If this worked, thank me in comments below…
I am still all full at it. What I discovered is that converter DOES work on fresh wordpress and bbpress installations. Of course I have discovered that all imported bbpress posts are by “Anonymous”, because of lost user data… So now I am working on solving that.
Hi. I just added a bbpress forum to my site. Everything seems to be working well. I already have a good number of subscribers to my site who receive new post email notifications via Subscribe2 plugin. Now with the new forum I am asking people to register for the site so they have forum access and once they do they will be getting new blog post notifications from that registrations too (I think). I am anticipating many of my followers getting two emails everytime I post a new blog post now, one from Subscribe2 and one from the forum/wordpress registration. I think that will likely annoy many of my followers. Any suggestions?
