reply threading means that you can reply to a reply and it will show against that reply, it lets a thread go in many directions – personally I hate it and would not use it.
‘Voices’ means the number of different people who have contributed to a thread.

settings>discussion just sets the default.
That will stop it for new pages, then you need to go into
dashboard>pages>edit pages and the R.E.D. “Crew Lounge” page and find comments and turn it off
This is working – the topic index shortcode you are using will show all tooics and then allow new topics with a forum select dropdown.
You are seeing that first.
After that you are seeing another ‘new topic’ box that says
Create New Topic in “R.E.D. Crew Lounge”
then you are also seeing and comment box.
so I would suggest you replace
[bbp-topic-index]
[bbp-topic-form forum_id=846]
with
[bbp-single-forum id=846]
That will then display the topics and only a reply to that forum
I would also turn off comments, you do that by
dashboard>settings>discussion>default post settings> and turn off all 3

Wordpress: 6.8.1
bbPress: 2.6.13.
shortcodes on my Forum page:
[bbp-topic-index]
[bbp-topic-form forum_id=846]
website: https://www.pcrnmra.net/redwood/
Forum page R.E.D. “Crew Lounge”
My site has only one forum (id=846), but when I add the shortcode
[bbp-topic-form forum_id=846], the dropdown for Forum: still defaults to –No forum –.
I researched this and found that the shortcode
[bbp-topic-form forum_id=846] is supposed to fix this, but it is not working for me.

bbpress uses custom post types, so uses their status in the posts table (not post meta) to determine whether to display.
So on trashing a topic, I would expect the post_status on the posts table to be changed to trash.
To enable you to ‘untrash’ a topic (say if it was a mistake) in tbe post_meta table, I would then expect to see
_bbp_pre_trashed_replies a:4:{i:0;i:33965;i:1;i:33963;i:2;i:33959;i:3;i:33956;}
_wp_trash_meta_status publish
_wp_trash_meta_time 1748443956
The trash status being the status BEFORE it was trashed, so that it can go back to this if you made a mistake.
I am not sure what the other statuses are doing there, if you have been trashing and untrashing, other stuff might happen, and other bbpress plugins might be adding things.
I’d suggest you try creating a test topic and then trashing it, and seeing what happens, so that you can see a ‘clean’ set of entries.
If you still have problems, then it could be a theme or plugin issue, so I’d try creating and trashing a topic with the below happening.

The link only works for logged in users, but if I have understood the problem, then if you have FTP capability :
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/single-topic.php
transfer this to your pc and edit
line 21 contains the h1 tag, so you can amend this to what you want
and save
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/single-topic.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
Hi,
On our bbPress forum at: https://greatwaraviation.org/forums/forum/general/
We’ve noticed that **normal topics are correctly sorted by most recent activity**, but **sticky topics stay at the top in the order they were made sticky**, regardless of new replies.
Screenshot for reference: https://prnt.sc/zHWdapMx5Tw5
Is there a way to make sticky topics sort by recent activity as well, or is this the default behavior in bbPress?
Thanks for your help!
could be hundreds of reasons, and may be coincidental of 6.8 or may not.
so it could be a theme or plugin issue

Hi!
I’m wondering if the support forums on WordPress.org are powered by bbPress or a custom solution. I noticed that replies support Gutenberg blocks, which is not available in the default bbPress plugin.
Is WordPress.org using a customized version of bbPress with Gutenberg integration? If so, is this integration available publicly, or is it a custom internal implementation?
Thanks!
There are many reasons why this might occur, that are site specific. This is not a known error with bbpress and more likely to be related to either the set up of your site, or it could be a theme or plugin issue

Hi all,
I’ve been doing a test run today to import my old phpBB board to bbpress, and it worked surprisingly well (as in: the whole process finished without hanging).
In the end, though, I do have a number of problems, and I was wondering if anyone doing a similar import was able to solve them.
– The old board has thousands of registered users (many of them spammers :/ ), and I didn’t want to clutter my WordPress install with all those accounts, especially since it’s a multisite install and I’m mainly migrating the board for archiving purposes. So I didn’t check the “import user accounts” box, but now all user names are just “Anonymous”. Any way to migrate the user names without the accounts?
– It seems like quoted posts are broken, as the “bbcode_quote” tag isn’t applied where it should be.
– Smilies aren’t imported properly. The relative path to the smilies is lost, and when there’s more than one smiley in a row, only the first one has an image tag.
– [img] tags aren’t being properly converted either. Or rather the conversion seems to work ok, but after the actual link, the [img] code, which bbpress can’t read, is retained for some reason.
– Like I said, overall conversion seemed to work well, but cluttered the error log with hundreds of these messages:
PHP Warning: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/parser.php on line 1289
Anything to worry about?
– I understand that no attachments are imported by default, but maybe someone found a workaround?
Thanks!
ok there are thousands of themes, and tens of thousands of plugin, so whilst I have had a quick look at my test site with Astra, I cannot spend time on the theme to work out what you need to do.
So to test could be a theme or plugin issue

This is just a warning that WordPress 6.7 introduced.
bbpress in itself does not issue that warning, so I’d suspect that another plugin is affecting this.
so you need to test to see which other plugin or your theme is doing this.
I’d start with loco translate and LearnPress – bbPress Integration as likely candidates.
If not you’ll need to work out which

Hi! In setting/Forum I put the role participant to be automatically assigned to every registered visitor, but looks like not being working, because when a new user registers on my website, he/she doesn’t get any role assigned, and I have to do it manually from the dashboard.
Any clue why is did happening?
I am using an external plugin for registration, not the wordpress default option.
Thanks for any help.
If you use the bbpress profile rather than the wordpress one, it lists all topics and replies by a user – just click on a user link in the forums to see.
you can use
bbp style pack
(which also has lots of add-on features) to set the default profile to bbpress
see
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>login
For ranking you have
bbPress Voting
and/or
bbp user ranking
also if you want users to add information about themselves, then

How can I set the default style setting of the visual editor to it’s standard?
It shall only be the buttons within the visual editor and not the ones for the rest of the forum.
Actually the button settings are inherited form the customized theme and it looks horrible within the editor.
many sites will not wish you to even know that the topic exists, so throwing a 404 error is the default way.
You can set where to send private topics using
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Subscription Emails item 2
ok, so in default mode, you will have the same bar as here. Another plugin or the theme is adding tyhe one on your test server. Are you using the bbp style pack plugin?
I thought I would use the default forum template, so I clicked on the form template and saved it, but for some reason it wasn’t reflected. I’d like to know the cause of this.

Hi, I am using the bbPress integration with BuddyPress, so that when new BuddyPress groups are created, their respective associated forum is also created. I would like these forums to already have some topics created by default (such as rules, general chat, …), so that the user does not have to create them manually. Although the user can create more topics later, but I would like the forum to already include some topics by default when the group is created. Is it possible to achieve this? Thanks.
ok, all I can suggest is the standard fault finding…
