ok, just eliminating as sometimes local (pc) installations can have url issues.
Can you tell us in
Dashboard>settings>forums
what the forums root is set to and also do yiu bave a wordpress page with [bbp-forum-index] on it? and if what is the url of that page?
This is the URL /forums/search/french+fries/ that is returning in the browser instead of the normal /?s=french+fries peram.
The first url is normal for the bbPress forums search, in the second is normal for default WordPress search.
https://bbpress.org/forums/search/French+Fries/
In a plain permalink setup the forum search does look like this
yoursite.com/forums/search/?action=bbp-search-request&bbp_search=french+fries
What other themes have you tried and what are the currently active plugins you have right now??
Thanks for the reply!
This is actually something I did before posting here (should have mentioned it) and while running the default 2015 theme, I am running into the same issue. This is the URL /forums/search/french+fries/ that is returning in the browser instead of the normal /?s=french+fries peram.
It’s strange as I have several other corporate wordpress sites running (not w/ bbpress) but have never had a problem with “out of the box” search widgets :)…
I will continue to test (only running 4 plugins) and see what comes from that.
I could not reduplicate this issue on a default theme like TwentyFifteen.
Try it on your end on a default theme and see if you come across the same result.
Try it on a test site/local site with a WordPress default theme, then try with your current theme.
bbpress 2.5.8
wordpress (not sure how to find this since I have limited access to the cms. our company always updates to the newest version)
In the forums the create new post editor doesn’t display correctly. There is no text editor, area of a title or tag/topic. I get two empty boxes with background fill and a submit button. This is the same on a reply to a post. It was working at one point since we tested the forum. I have completely uninstalled the plugin from the FTP and uploaded a fresh download.

Right now I can see that your site seems to have a plain permalink setup, which the url to access your forum would be this.
knightsresurrection.com/?forum=guild-info
Are you sure it is set to post name in Settings > Permalinks??
You might have to change it back to post name if it is not set that way and click the submit at the bottom of the page for the settings to update.
You might have to check your htaccess file in the root of your WordPress directory and see if it is even updating.
Also since it seems that your site is a fresh install (like a day 1 install), you can try a reinstall to see if that fixes anything, you would need to reinstall bbPress and BuddyPress again though and configure your settings again. Contact your host provider if you come across the same issue again.
Dear Experts, need your help desperately. I have the latest of everything.
I am using optimizepress theme and have successfully used BBPress before. But the last time I checked it was quite a while ago, and now when I try to access the forums, I am being taken to the Optimizepress blog setup page and then redirected to the wordpress dashboard.
I received this response from Optimizepress tech support:
========
My suggestion would be to check with bbpress to see if something is not setup correctly. I’m afraid our support for bbpress is quite limited so all we can really do is check on our end for issues with OptimizePress, and I don’t see any.
Your blog works fine so there is probably something going on within bbpress that is conflicting.
Usually when we see issues like this where the blog setup shows it is a permalink conflict of some kind.
I would suggest deactivating plugins to see if perhaps something is going on between another plugin you have and bbpress. I don’t really think this is coming from OptimizePress specifically as we haven’t seen this exact issue on sites that just run bbpress and OptimizePress.
========
So I created a staging site, and deactivated all my plugins except BBPress, and Optimizemember, the membership plugin. I still have the same issue.
I have attached the image of the page below.

all themes allow a child theme – it is a wordpress thing not a theme thing. They won’t ‘support’ as in give you free help to set up and run.

As Pascal says, we can help with specific queries, but not in a full set-up. But googling around will fix a lot of what you’re asking.
since it uses wordpress registration, and wordpress plugin will work
several plugins for example
https://wordpress.org/plugins/cimy-user-extra-fields/
and
https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/user-meta/
neither tested just suggesting examples !
Ahhh, correct, I had already opened a bug for that: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2906
I’m checking if there is a wordaround…
I would agree with @robkk, those links are worth a try. You can actually decide what works for you best by checking thier active instals and ratings by users. Then you can have a look at the screenshots to decide if that is what you would like to go with. I feel its better to go with somethings that has been developed already, tried and tested by users then tryin to build something fresh.
My choice from the lot (as mentioned by @rorkk):

I found an answer that solves my question here:
Meta Title for Profile Pages w/ Yoast SEO
For those who want to noindex in particular the replies of all mebers just add
<META NAME=”ROBOTS” CONTENT=”NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW” />
to the “user-replies-created.php” in the folder

Hi All–
I know this issue has been covered a dozen times, but I can’t seem to find an appropriate answer as it’s always been resolved by running an update.
Whenever a reply is posted on our site, it fails to appear. We ARE using a custom theme, so I suspect that this is likely the root of the problem. However, if someone can help point more towards WHAT we should be including in our themes to make sure that the replies display, I’d be grateful.
Here’s a link to a topic page where the replies do not show:
https://www.mta.org/forums/topic/cmt-level-1-exam-ethics/
Thus far, I’ve already:
– Updated to the latest WordPress
– Updated to the latest BuddyPress
– Ran a repair on the tables
– Changed to a default theme to confirm it’s a theme issue
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
no simple way to remove using css
You could just download my plugin and have it as a proper date

Hello, Is there a way to Display Topic Tag Description as Meta Description. That is the way it works in WordPress Tags but unfortunately Meta Name=”Description” is missing in the current version of BBpress.
Yep, what you put there is valid for your whole WordPress instance.
Pascal.
Wordpress: 4.3.3
bbPress: 2.5.8
I’m not sure if this is where I should ask this. I am trying to create my own gui under the author profile in wordpress that combines several different plugin information in one place. I thought bbp_get_user_topics_started() would return an array of the topics a user created, but instead I get boolean true.
ie: $user_id = 1; $result = bbp_get_user_topics_started($user_id);
Now it correctly tells me that user_id 1 has created topics, and bbp_get_user_topic_count_raw returns the right number of topics. Am I using this function incorrectly?
https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/global-admin-bar-hide-or-remove/
or if you know code
add_filter('show_admin_bar', '__return_false');
Hello,
I have BBPress 0.9 on an older website of mine and I would like to upgrade to the current WordPress version. Since my website is a simple static website I was thinking about installing WordPress in the /forums/ directory and add the BBPress plugin.
Is the above possible?
Thank you.
