How to Stop Admin subscription emails…
You can also try this plugin, it has code that might be in bbPress core in the future.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/asyncronous-bbpress-subscriptions/
We’ve had reports from users that many are not receiving email notifications of replies to their topics. We are sending through Mandrill and noticed that all notification emails are being sent both “to” and “from” the same address: noreply@ourdomain.com
Sceen shot: https://cloudup.com/csqJe4-TZcS
We confirmed that this happens without Mandrill active as well. We don’t mind having the “from” address be noreply, but obviously the “to” address needs to be the user’s email address, so the email is delivered to them. Do you know why this is happening, and how we can fix it?
bbPress Version 2.5.8

It is possible to add custom statuses with this plugin.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddy-bbpress-support-topic/
Here is an example gist file.
https://gist.github.com/imath/9e69b8139ff6f7a4120a
Here is example for Urgent.
function your_custom_status( $allstatus = array() ) {
$allstatus['topic-working-on-it'] = array(
'sb-caption' => __( 'Urgent', 'buddy-bbpress-support-topic' ),
'value' => 3,
'prefix-title' => __( '[Urgent] ', 'buddy-bbpress-support-topic' ),
'admin_class' => 'urgent',
'dashicon' => array( 'class' => 'bpbbpst-dashicons-warning', 'content' => '"\f534"' ),
);
return $allstatus;
}
add_filter( 'bpbbpst_get_support_status', 'your_custom_status', 10, 1 );
I am not going to lie but this chinese username thing is tough to find a fix for since I think most of the work does need to be done for WordPress itself.
You can try going here and posting a topic aobut this issue to see if anyone has a good suggestion/workaround.
https://zh-cn.forums.wordpress.org/
Other than that I guess you might want to look in users keeping english characters in their usernames. I even found a bbPress chinese forum in the wild and they all seem to just be using english characters for their usernames some even numbers which is interesting, because using the users id instead of their username will definitely help you.
cos.name/cn
The forums topics using the id looks like they might be using this.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-permalinks-with-id/
But since you seem to be getting the users to at least register with the characters now. Do you know what each user profile url is in the topic/reply post. Can you check it out in your browsers dev tools so I can see what the url is. I am expecting a url with some chinese characters and maybe some of these %%% in the url which would be leading to a 404.
You did try it like this right??
if(is_bbpress() && $args->menu->slug == 'sub_header_menu')
If it still doesn’t work you can try finding the menu location in your theme, which might most likely be in the functions.php file, but it could be different depending on the theme. You would spot by the register nav menu function like what is listed in this page.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_nav_menus
If you have a free theme I could check it out and get the arguments you need.
I guess you can try this code instead to see if it works any. I guess I can can also just check out to see if the custom script file name changed. I am using an older version of Divi 2.4 for testing so it could be a possibility.
You can contact me here if you want me to check it out on your site later.
Contact
add_action( 'wp_print_scripts', 'rkk_reply_threading_divi' );
function rkk_reply_threading_divi() {
if( is_bbpress() && bbp_is_single_topic() ) {
wp_dequeue_script( 'divi-custom-script' );
}
}
There should be forum for each company name.
Just create a new forum for each company.
All threads specific to that company needs to be created there.
You can create group forums with the help of buddyPress or bbPress private groups to enforce this. Other than that just tell users to post there.
Now on searching city, state, region or holding company related forums/threads should come in results. I want to create menu where in he can click on city and find related company names available in that city.
Not sure where the city, state, region, holding company data is kept. I am guessing since each company has a forum, that each company’s data could be the city, state, region. I guess create a forum taxonomy for each?
Then make the bbPress forum search or whatever search you are using for the site to be able to search forum taxonomies?
I want to create menu where in he can click on city and find related company names available in that city.
I guess create a custom query?? bbPress has if_has_forums() to be able to do this I guess.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query
I can’t really help any more since this is custom development.
What is the best way to get users to sign up to your site without letting automated spam bots in and to make things frontendy?
I have searched and searched yet the only option I can find are those premium plugins (which have many vulnerabilities in them).
what I want to to do is simple:
Have a front end registration page with fields for login, password, why does this person want to join… and a custom captcha question… and then somewhere in the admin panel I want to be able to just approve or decline users based on what they put in the why do you want to join field.
I also want to make this the only place for users to register from… else spammers will just use the normal wordpress sign up to get access.
How can I go about doing all of this?
Please help.
Thank you.
Alright. I downloaded an plugin called “Chinese-username” and it works right now which is great! The code is:
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Chinese UserName
Plugin URI: http://www.01on.com/?p=654
Description: 允许用a-z0-9_.-@和汉字作为用户名
Author: 白云山
Version: 1.0
Author URI: http://www.01on.com/
*/
add_filter( ‘sanitize_user’, ‘ys_sanitize_user’,3,3);
function ys_sanitize_user($username, $raw_username, $strict){
$username = $raw_username;
$username = strip_tags($username);
// Kill octets
$username = preg_replace(‘|%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])|’, ”, $username);
$username = preg_replace(‘/&.+?;/’, ”, $username); // Kill entities
// If strict, reduce to ASCII and chinese for max portability.
if ( $strict )
$username = preg_replace(‘|[^a-z0-9 _.\-@\x80-\xFF]|i’, ”, $username);
// Consolidate contiguous whitespace
$username = preg_replace(‘|\s+|’, ‘ ‘, $username);
return $username;
}
?>
The only problem I found is the Chinese username owner can’t update his info. by clicking on his username in the forum page. Whenever clicking on the hyperlink of the Chinese username, it just redirects to http://artstellars.co.nz/forums/users and displaying a message saying “Not Found – Sorry, but the page you were trying to view does not exist. It looks like this was the result of either a mishtyped address or an out-of-date link”.
But while registering as an English username there’s no such trouble. Hope WordPress or bbpress can consider support Chinese username in the near future. Thanks.
I know there’s an Export option for Forums in WordPress’s default Export menu.
But when I viewed the Import options under Tools > Import Forums, there was only bbPress1.
Which brings me here to ask, how do you import a forum from a bbPress2 to another bbPress2 ?
Hi Robkk
Many thanks for your help. Change the url and lost password page works right now! You’re the man!
I’ve installed and activated the wordpress special characters in username pluggin as you recommended but unfortunately it doesn’t work. May be it’s only for russian, cyrillic, arabic as it describes? Any other way to fix it? Thanks.
1. Not sure why your lost password page is not there?? You can use Woocommerce’s lost password form instead though.
My Account
2. Use this plugin, and see if it will help.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-special-characters-in-usernames/
Every user in the forum that creates a reply or a topic their username that displays next to their post has a link that leads to their profile.
You can also use the bbPress login widget too. Once the user has logged in, their name in the widget is also a profile link.
You can just create a custom link menu item for each authentication page for your site. You can use the default WordPress Pages.
Go to Appearance > Menus in the WordPress backend. Then toward the left side you will see a menu with a list of pages/posts/forums. Right next to all those is a dropdown to add a custom link. Just manually add the URLs of the default WordPress pages below or any other frontend forms you may have already.
Register
http://yoursite.com/wp-login.php?action=register
Login
http://yoursite.com/wp-login.php
Lost Password
http://yoursite.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
https://codex.wordpress.org/Appearance_Menus_Screen#Custom_Links
You can also do the other things I listed in your other topic for user to login/register etc.
Login, Register, Lost Password links
I am trying to say troubleshoot an issue if it could be something else like a theme causing the issue, so switching to a default theme could test that.
Troubleshooting
Remember reply pagination does not show up if you have threaded replies enabled.
Here is a ticket to fix reply pagination in threaded replies, but for now the patch only works for forums that are not hidden or private.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2785
I am sure this question has been asked many times before. I just don’t seem to get a straightforward answer. I need to set up a bbpress user profile (not the WordPress user profile). I don’t have widgets. Where is the bbpress user profile located and how do I get a link to it? It would be nice to have this in the menu together with the login/logout/register and lost password links as well.
Thank you.
Hi bbpress team, thanks for creating such good forum product. It’s a great plugin that I can create my own forum easily. There’re two questions. First one is the lost password page doesn’t work when I activated the Woocommerce theme but if I de-active the Woocommerce the lost password page works! I do need Woocommerce to show my gallery. My url is: http://artstellars.co.nz/lost-password/
Another question is the Chinese username registration by bbpress. it says “ERROR: This username is invalid because it uses illegal characters. Please enter a valid username.” if I register using a Chinese as a username. Is there any pacth can work around this?
I am using the latest version of bbpress v.2.5.8, Woocommerce v.2.4.7 and WordPress v.4.3.1. Thanks.
I don’t understand how this link to a theme for wordpress will help me to break a forum into pages in bbpess.
Hi All,
I am currently working on a private site which uses WordPress + Buddypress + bbPress.
The forum posts do not have the line spacing the way I want it.. Basically it doesnt put a nice line break in between the paragraphs.
I have used the search feature on here and google, and have tried the following:
.post p {
line-height: 1.5em;
padding-bottom: 15px;
}
AND
.bbp-reply-content p {
margin-bottom:10px;
}
I think there were a couple of other things I tried, but to no avail.
I am using the TinyMCE visual editor plugin, however, I have disabled this and the issue still exists.
I’d like to think I can navigate the CSS reasonably well using firebug, but in this case, I just can’t find where the issue is.
Am hoping someone can take a look (i’ll supply login/pass for those willing) to see where I’m going wrong?
Note: I am using my own custom theme designed in Template Toaster. I have a bbpress.css file in my theme folder under <theme>\css
Here is some common issues that could create the White Screen of Death issue.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Common_WordPress_Errors#The_White_Screen_of_Death
You can try to see if another plugin is also causing the issue with bbPress and your site.
And you can try to find some debug information on your site by using WP-Debug set to true.

In the WordPress backend you will see these new menu items when activating bbPress.

I am sorry but the Czech language is incomplete right now. It will be much appreciated if you do help use in creating a new czech translation for bbPress. If you want create a new topic on this site and I will try to help you the best I can in creating the translation file.

@kari1
Sorry Polish language file for bbPress is incomplete also, would love if you helped create the file. If you want create a new topic and I will try to help you the best I can in creating the language file.

I’ve switched between about 5 different themes, trying to install bbpress with each one. Each time, the result is the same. I get a message saying that bbpress was installed, but when I try to go back to the WordPress dashboard, I just get a completely white page. I can’t even navigate back to delete bbpress, so I have to do it manually through FTP.
Right now I am using the Genesis Framework theme, but the same problem has happened with the default themes (Twenty Twelve, Twenty Thirteen, etc.)
Any ideas what it might be?
My website is http://www.poorpilots.com/
I am using the latest version of WordPress.
You do not really need to create a page for the forum archive, just create a custom link menu item.
But from what you are getting with -2 being displayed for the page, you already have a page with that /forums slug in the Pages section of your WordPress site. It could a page you already created in the Trash.
@mica123 Placing the login form above on the main Forums page created in your WordPress is easy.
- Edit your WP page containing [bbp-forum-index]
- Include [bbp-login] above that line
- Update the page
And the login form will show above your forum index.
I’ve not fully experimented placing the login above all the forum pages. Though I think it’s very much possible, and the answer may lie in other forum topics.
What I could share though is I tried adding <?php echo do_shortcode("[bbp-login]"); ?> to loop-forums.php and loop-topics.php but it didn’t work.
What happened was the list of forums and topics disappeared.
I hope this was helpful.
The only table I think bbPress creates is the one for importing forums/keeping extra imported forum data. Most of the data bbPress has are stored in WordPress tables, but all that data should be gone if you ran the reset forums tools(well except the forum roles).
Stored Database Data
If you are looking to delete users you can go into Users > All Users in the WordPress backend and then start bulk deleting users.
