registration is a wordpress thing, rather than bbpress.

what is set is
dashboard>settings>general>email address
and does it match your email server?
1. You should be aware that many spam filters strip messages that do not come from the correct address. So if your site is mysite.com and your email address in wordpress settings>general is fred@gmail.comthen it is likely that messages will be dumped in transit. You need to set up email to come from your site eg fred@mysite.com, your hosting provider can help if needed.
2. Just bbpress?
Then you need to see if this is wordpress wide or just bbpress.
Try https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/

Hi all, I come back to help with a problem on my forum.

I realized that some members do not have access to the forum with a 404 error.
 
I deleted all the plugins, I left just wordpress and bbpress, I have the same error.

I have 3400 members on the forum, the vast majority has access without problems but some account can not find the page error 404

Do you have an idea of the problem

[Colin Poole]

Hey all,

So I have a WordPress page called Register which uses the shortcode [bbp-register] to call up the registration form. I have linked the page below. The problem right now is that the “register” button isn’t doing anything. It does not appear to be clickable so when I enter an e-mail and password you can’t go any further. Not sure what would happen to prevent the button from working, hoping someone can notice if I’m missing anything.

Register

Wordpress Version: 4.9.7
BBPress Version: 2.5.14

Thanks in advance for any advice!

In an ongoing effort to fight spam, I want to disable all comments via the WordPress Admin Dashboard…Settings/Discussion…(uncheck allow notifications and uncheck allow people to post comments)

If I do this, will bbPress New Topic or Replies be impacted? Will users still be able to submit new topics or reply to existing omes?

I am running WP 4.9.7 and bbPress 2.5.14 with bbPress Moderation 1.8.3

Thanks.

I’ve just added that capability to my style pack

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topic/Rely Styling

and check item 16

[Robin W]

should be there

1. It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

2. https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

Also, everything within wordpress is up to date.

I am trying to use the bbpress login widget in the header widget of my site. When Logging in using this bbp login widget, it doesn’t redirect to the page I logged in from. It goes to the User’s WordPress dashboard.

Can someone please help with this issue?

Thanks.

[Robin W]

easiest solution is this plugin, which lets you set all that

bbp style pack

or

bbPress Styling Crib

[Robin W]

Shortcodes

and to customise and style bbpress try

bbp style pack

[Robin W]

bbpress is a free plugin and this forum is a community forum – there are no paid staff, so questions are answered by volunteers.

bbpress uses wordpress registration, so the issue is a wordpress one, and as suggested by the password reset, you should contact you host provider.

also try https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/

Does bbPress add any cookies beyond the standard WordPress login cookies? We’re putting together the list of all the cookies the site sets and aren’t sure if bbPress is adding any. If it does add any, could you list the name, duration and purpose of the cookie(s)?

@robin-w I used this plugin

bbPress Statistiche Avanzate

[Ray Konopka]

I am trying to import the forums and topics from our existing phpBB forums. There are about a dozen forums, and about 400 topics and 1600 posts. I have set the values on the Import Forums page to the following:

Select Platform = phpBB
Database Server = mssql2.<hostingdomain>.com
Database Port = 3306
Database Name = <name of the database>
Database Username = <admin user>
Database Password = <password>
Table Prefix = phpbb_

However, when I start the conversion, it reports “No forums to convert”, “No forum parents to convert”, and so on.

I do not get any errors when I run the conversion. The existing phpBB forums are in a MSSQL database and not a MySQL database. I suspect that this may be the reason nothing is discovered.

Any help would be appreciated.

it is not good practise to amend bbpress (or any plugin) files.

The code should go in the custom css area of your there if it has one, or via a plugin such as https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/

for the threads are, the simplest would be to use my style pack plugin

bbp style pack

and change the roles in

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum roles

for your specific area, we would need the code you added in your functions file, but that should be able to then use the plugin settings above

If you are talking about the plugin ‘bbp private groups’, then is the user has permission to see a topic (ie is a member of that group) then I would expect then to see it.

If you still have an issue, please re-log in https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbp-private-groups and I’ll pick it up there

[webmasterfreya]

ello,

Members of private groups are missing in their overviews the started topics and created replies from private forum(s) .

e.g Group member erwintest (member of 1 group) added some topics and replies in the private forum that should (at least i expect that) pop up via this link
/members/erwintest/forums/ and /members/erwintest/forums/replies/ but they don’t.

However if i logon as administrator and use the same links, the started topics and created replies placed in the private forum of user erwintest do popup.

Is this expected behaviour or not?

With Non private forums there is no problem.

Hi Experts,

BBPress 2.5.14 and also using BB style pack 3.9.2
Wordpress version 4.9.6
Site url: StandUpGirl.com

Issue:
I am getting many errors in the google search console for titles that have words like haven’t, won’t, I’m which are contraction words. These words show up as this sample /forums/topic/i-haven-t-posted-in-a-while-but/ where you can see the word haven’t is haven-t. The search bots don’t understand the ‘t’ and I get errors. Also if a user puts an comma in the title I get errors.

How do I fix this?

Thank you so much for giving me help!
Diana

Checkout the phpBB converter, it’s one of the best example implementations.

Use _bbp_old_topic_id to grab your old topic id:
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/includes/admin/converters/phpBB.php#L183

p.s. The above phpBB converter uses bbPress 2.6 alpha which has many new refinements for the importer over bbPress 2.5, I’d suggest you use bbPress 2.6 alpha for any imports due to those improvements, it can be found here https://bbpress.org/download (bbPress.org and wordpress.org both use bbPress 2.6)
