I understand it is quite unusable but as I stated previously if you only have a handful of users this is required for will it suffice, how many is a ‘handful’ in this case?
In regard to removing spam posts I found this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/clobber-spam-users/
This looks like it could be easily forked and adjusting the search criteria to return the results that meet your criteria to then have it delete the topics & replies for you, then afterwards you will again have users with no posts/topics/replies etc and again masss delete those users.
I finally got everything working fine together for the most part on my new site. Wow-it was an endeavor plugin by plugin hehehehe.
The one situation I am having though is that buddypress-Default theme and the logging in from the theme. In the upper right hand corner it says username and password – if you type it in It Always says wrong and fails Login. Then it brings you to wordpress login and all is fine you can log in normally.
Help Please…
Thanks…

For ‘protected’
add_filter('protected_title_format', 'ntwb_remove_protected_title');
function ntwb_remove_protected_title($title) {
return '%s';
}
And for ‘private’
add_filter('private_title_format', 'ntwb_remove_private_title');
function ntwb_remove_private_title($title) {
return '%s';
}

I try to “adjust” settings within wordpress for the bbpress plugin, it takes me to this link and says I “do not have permissions sufficient for this” or something similar IN SPANISH (dont know how it translates exactly into english)
Whats the problem here? Please somebody help me soon, Thank you very much!
you’ll need to disable the bbpress plugin
https://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F
Just deactivate the bbpress plugin for starters.
then you’ll need to figure out why it isn’t working for you.
I’d start by uninstalling bbpress, and reinstalling it in case there was a corruption as it downloaded
Then if it still doesn’t work, I’d disable all the other plugins and if it then works add them back one at a time to see which is causing the issue.
If not plugins, then I’d try switching to a default theme to prove that you WP installation is ok.
if all that fails, come back
Embedly used to help for SoundCloud but I recently had to deactivate it as I believe a recent version of WordPress now directly supports URLs to soundcloud.com
I’m using WordPress 3.7 and bbPress 2.4.x and there appears to be no problem dropping the soundcloud URL on a line by itself.
Hooray! 🙂
Sorry, I think I wasn’t clear: the site is a wordpress site and the forum is just an addiction, so the dashboard is the normal wordpress admin pages. What I can’t see is the forum dashboard, which I don’t know how to get to.
Thanks again Robin
Apologies, snow & under are a couple of terms that come to mind.
I just imported your data into a clean MySQL database and everything imported correctly.
(The one side note is a couple of BBCodes, [align & [flash weren’t converted to WordPress ‘safe’ HTML, but that is another issue.)
Where to from here I am not sure as ‘your’ content appears fine at my end and isn’t causing the importer to miss/fail etc.
I think the next step would be for you to try this on a local install:
MAMP if you use Mac http://www.mamp.info/en/mamp-pro/index.html
XAMPP if you use PC http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html
Setup and install WordPress & bbPress in this install.
Export your entire phpBB database and import it into your local setup and give that a go.
https://www.phpbb.com/kb/article/transferring-your-board-to-a-new-host-or-domain/
My theory here is there could be ‘something’ going on with your web hosts configuration and if the local import works we can then export this data from WordPress on your local host and then import this into your remote host.
Managed to resolve this myself, using another plugin, Page Security: http://www.contextureintl.com/wordpress/contexture-page-security-for-wordpress/
I would have thought that either this sort of functionality could be built in to bbpress, or bbpress documentation could include clearer help and advice that such a plug in might be needed.
i would mark this topic as closed, but can’t see how to do so…
I’ve noticed under permalinks wordpress is complaining about access to the .htaccess file; could this cause the problem considering everything else is ok? or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Hi All,
Hoping you can help; running WordPress 3.5.1 with Buddypress 1.7.1 and bbPress 2.3.2
I’ve been running sitewide forums for quite a while without issue; but recently we have needed to enable groups and group forums. I have done this successfully and I’m able to create groups and add forums to them; these show up correctly under the Group Forums Category and also within people’s profiles and the group itself.
However the problem arrives when trying to create a topic in a group forum (sitewide are still fine). You can create the topic and it is listed in the group forum after the fact; however when you click on topic to view it you get a http 500 error saying the page can’t be displayed.
additionally topics posted in both privite and hidden forums also show up in the bbpress “recent topics” widget for everyone to see (even logged out people) which defeats the purpose of being private or hidden.
I’ve tried using the forum repair option and this didnt help, anyone got any ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks!
I just noticed the same thing my self.
Basically Yoast WordPress SEO: XML Sitemaps automatically adds ALL reply url’s to the existing sitemap. This means google will index them all.
> What I’m looking for are where the single reply URL’s are being used in your theme, making them accessible and allowing them to be crawled.
I doubt they are exposed by default, however a quick fix could be adding a rule in robots txt as well as excluding them from your sitemap.
no problem, glad you’re sorted
Awesome I seemed to have fixed it then, thank you so much for your help.
Hi, I have created a private forum for members of my Board and staff to share news and views. I’ve also created user accounts for the people I want to have access. My (stupid) question is this: how do those users get to the Forum? Where do they login and how?
No code please, I won’t understand it!
Using BBPress Version 2.4.1, WordPress 3.6.1, Theme is Graphene Version 1.9.2, website is http://www.yourbackyard.org.uk.
I’ve just registered with you, and logged on with no problems via the forum widget. Went straight back to the forum page as it should do. Didn’t see a wp-login page at all.
i have set bbpress forum in my site here is link http://www.hookemreport.com/forum-2/
the problem is when i am clicking any forum nothing is opening
here is like of click http://www.hookemreport.com/forums/forum/discussions/ and getting error, any one can encounter it i am waiting for
Thank you so much Robin for taking the time to help. The lost password link worked!
Although I do not really know about all that Page Template and CSS stuff, so I would be aerie to mess with that. I basically just want to make the login page the page under http://modbunker.com/forums/ so it doesnt take them to that WordPress page. It seems even if their login is correct it still directs them to the wordpress page to login again and then directs them to http://modbunker.com/forums/ which I want in the first place. Id just hate for my users to have to login twice basically, and have them be directed to a WordPress login which might confuse them.
But if it works it works may just have to stick it out and see. Thank you again
or change the lost password url to http://modbunker.com/lost-password/ – that seems to work
had a look
You login works fine. If you fail then you will be taken to the default wordpress login page. If you want to change this page see
https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Login_Form
For the lost password, try resetting your permalinks dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save.
ok I switched it back and entered the Register URL and Lost Password URL. The register URL works great but my Lost Password gives me a 404 error.
My login is still bringing me to a WordPress Login screen though. : (
