Hello,
I’ve a caching(?) problem and I’ve no idea how to solve it.
I use bbpress on a single website in a multisite wordpress installation with the [bbp-forum-index] bbcode on a custom page as front page.
Now I realised that then I’m moving topics or deleting some of them the topic- and post-counter as the freshness column doesn’t update. There still seems to be a topic but then clicking on the forum there isn’t.
My first suspect is the cache but after smashing the F5 button and manually clearing the browser cache it’s still there. Also topics deleted a long time ago are still in the freshness column but not in the topic- and post-counter.
We’re not using any caching plugins. The only thing that comes near a caching plugin is the plugin wordfence that has a caching option, but that function is disabled. I also deactivated the plugin but nothing changed.
Now I’m quite confused. Does someone know of any problems with following plugins?
What I’ve tried:
– deactivating wordfence
– use the Twenty Fifteen theme instead of evolve (on a test page same result if I move topics between different main categories or parent forums)
What I use:
– WordPress 4.3
– bbPress 2.5.8
– evolve theme 3.4.3 with a child theme
on http://hackish.codes/hcforum/
test website: http://hackish.codes/testpage/
These plugins are active together with bbpress (on both the test website and the productive forum):
– Breadcrumb NavXT 5.2.2
– Redux Framework 3.5.7
– Wordfence Security 6.0.15
– WPML Multilingual CMS 3.2.6 (active on multisite but deactivated through the WPML intern deactivation)
– WP Statistics 9.5.3
– BuddyPress 2.3.3
– WP Hide Admin Bar 2.0
– Orbisius Child Theme Creator 1.2.8
Hi,
I’m sorry if this has been asked 1000x times before. I did find many topics about this problem, and tried many of the listed solutions, but nothing seems to work for me.
I’m runnning the following website : nanomamnews.com on wordpress 4.3 with bbpress 2.5.8 which i believe is the most recent versions available.
Only the keymaster role can see the public forums. Any other role can’t see anything and falls on a 404 page.
I run a custom theme. I tried the repair and reset tools. I tried messing around with the user capabilities, both in wordpress and using various plugins.
Please help me fix this bug, or make a link that points to the solution very clearly, because it seems to be a very recurrent pain with bbpress.
I’m looking to have a set of capabilities and roles that works. I can fine tune the permissions later on, but i think it’s crazy that only keymaster has access to the forums.
Creating topics from posts in an RSS feed is probably possible with the FeedWordPress plugin, you may have to make sure you configure it correctly for bbPress though.
Turning bbPress into a feed aggregator or a re-aggregator is a great idea to bring discussion into your forums.
How the imported content is presented and how much of it you are importing could be crucial to user engagement to your site though.
Try not to steal some other sites posts though.
Hi,
I’ve tried to use the forum converter and it does import the board, but it isn’t importing users. Is there something special I need to to to get the user account migrated over?
It’s giving me this error
WordPress database error: [Unknown column 'users.msn' in 'field list']
Thanks for the help.
I use WordPress 4.3 and bbpress 2.5.8. The theme version is Fount 3.6.
Hello, everybody, this is my resolution:
first, i have my own plugin, named ‘sc64’. then add these php code to my plugin.
add_filter('bbp_get_do_not_reply_address','scap_bbp_no_reply_email');
function scap_bbp_no_reply_email(){
$admin_email = get_option('admin_email');
return $admin_email;
}
the default noreply email address has changed to admin_email that configured in wordpress.
i hope this helps.
Oh I know what you are talking about know. The having to login again threw me off a bit. I think you were logged in, but just didnt redirect to wp-admin. You could of easily from the WordPress Toolbar went to the admin area from there.
When you log into your site you are redirected to the homepage, but you want to be redirected to the dashboard.
There is something in bbPress that might be causing redirecting users to the homepage, like for the bbPress login form.
This can be very easily fixed by installing Peters Login Redirect plugin. Install it, configure who/what roles you want to be redirected to wp-admin.
If you do not need a plugin I think a small function could easily fix the issue also.
No. I just installed it and am running the latest version of wordpress. I have not used it before, but it seems rather clunky to be honest and I am no novice. This is the first site where I have required a forum, so it is not a good first impression. It has been around a long time and I am surprised it is so dodgy. The site on which I am using it is live, so I must a wait until later to try to deactivate several plugins, but I will let you know what happens after I do. I see a lot of replies on this and many plugin suggestions for something that should be very, very simple. I will wait and see.
I am getting the same problem and this is clearly a massive one. I cannot get an email to work from the system at all. Horrible. If I cannot resolve, will move to another platform. Thought this was supposed to work seamlessly with wordpress. Not the first time I have seen it and it won’t be the last. Will watch this thread with interest. Maybe I will even get an email of a reply!
You want to use a contact form plugin for your forum?? Do you need any specific placement of the forum, like in a forum post or something??
If you have a WordPress site running the bbPress plugin, you should be able to use a contact form plugin like CF7 with no problems.
bbPress was a standalone software for forums in the 0.1 to 1.0 era, now with version 2.0 and on it is a WordPress plugin.
The plugin version also includes an importer for the v1 standalone version that might be helpful.
I am really confused about how bbPress works…
I have taken over a website from a previous administrator. I replaced the WordPress site completely with a new one I developed. There was already a bbPress forum (a whole separate SQL database), so I just added a menu item to my site that linked to the existing forum directly. http://www.oakridgeoutlaws.org
Now I need to work on customizing the forum. Since I originally developed my new WP site on my own computer using WAMP I thought I would add bbPress there first to play around with it. So, from WordPress, I added the bbPress plug-in and followed the the instructions. I can make a forum show up on a page, but it is not like what is on the public server. On the real website there is a whole other SQL database for the forum. On my local site, there is just a bbpress folder in my plugins folder.
I saw a comment on another thread here that said “bbPress is not a WordPress plug-in. It is a stand-alone software.” What am I missing? What did I download when I added a plugin called bbPress?
Thank you for putting up with a confused newbie.
If your theme gets a breadcrumb, then disable Yoast’s one. You may have two breadcrumb:
First ==> WordPress
Second==> BBPress
You do this:
*/
function tempera_breadcrumbs1() {
$temperas= tempera_get_theme_options();
foreach ($temperas as $key => $value) { ${"$key"} = $value ; }
global $post;
$separator = "<i class='icon-angle-right'></i> ";
if( !is_bbpress()){
if (is_page() && !is_front_page() || is_single() || is_category() || is_archive()) {
echo '<div class="breadcrumbs">';
echo '<a href="'.home_url().'"><i class="icon-homebread"></i></a>'.$separator ;
if (is_page()) {
$ancestors = get_post_ancestors($post);
if ($ancestors) {
$ancestors = array_reverse($ancestors);
foreach ($ancestors as $crumb) {
echo '<a href="'.get_permalink($crumb).'">'.get_the_title($crumb).$separator.'</a>';
}
}
}
if (is_single()) {
if (has_category()) {
$category = get_the_category();
echo '<a href="'.get_category_link($category[0]->cat_ID).'">'.$category[0]->cat_name.$separator.'</a>';
}
}
if (is_category()) {
$category = get_the_category();
echo ''.$category[0]->cat_name.'';
}
if (is_tag()) {
echo ''.__('Tag','tempera').''.$separator.single_tag_title('', false);
}
// Current page
if (is_page() || is_single()) {
echo ''.get_the_title().'';
}
echo '</div>';
}
elseif (is_home() && $tempera_frontpage!="Enable" ) {
// Front page
echo '<div class="breadcrumbs">';
echo '<a href="'.home_url().'"><i class="icon-homebread"></i></a> '.$separator;
_e('Home Page','tempera');
echo '</div>';
}
}
} // tempera_breadcrumbs()
add_action('after_setup_theme','remove_fonction_parent2');
function remove_fonction_parent2() {
remove_action('cryout_before_content_hook','tempera_breadcrumbs');
add_action ('cryout_before_content_hook','tempera_breadcrumbs1');
}

You have to change the information about your theme.
hi friends,
Me too, breadcrumb is not showing only in forum pages.
Previously i had WordPress SEO plugin. Now disabled that too. But still i am not getting breadcrumb. No code is done. Latest bbpress has been installed as it is.
Please help
Thanks
Rob thanks for the plug-in, which I will use immediately, BUT how is it that it’s not considered a security issue to be giving out “confidential” e-mail addresses Via the BCC field?
It’s a big breach of privacy.
This should be fixed at the core! When spammers get wind of this all they need to do is reply or subscribe to a post topic to snag e-mail addresses of participants. They will.
I don’t want my e-mail address given away and both the BBPress forums and WordPress forums appear NOT to do this while the the default behavior of this application on any other wordpress installation DOES.
Please consider this carefully for addition into the WordPress core.
Ciao,
L
Maybe not using BCC at all would help, plus this delivers emails through the wp-cron to make sending emails more efficient and make the emails most likely not end up in the spam folder.

If you have a support forum this plugin will help you add additional topic statuses like resolved.

do you know that the default WordPress login page is yoursite.com/wp-login.php and the direct link to the WordPress backend (Administration area) is yoursite.com/wp-admin?
So you renamed wp-login.php to newadmin. And after you login you are redirected to the dashboard at wp-admin.
I am starting to think this is not really an issue.
I also did test the dashboard access plugin and didn’t really see an issue from it either. Maybe the redirect url you inputted in that plugin may be causing an issue?? I am not sure.
When I contacted the devs yesterday, one of them said that they haven’t come across this issue lately, and also if WordPress was installed in a subfolder.
They said a possible issue is that there might be some caching where it shouldn’t be.
I replied and said that I will at least keep this bug, that you and some other guys are experiencing, as a possible issue with bbPress. I will also report back to the devs if it happens to another user again, then we can go to bug finding from there.
But its not contained in a nice neat pop-up box like here in bbpress’s sub-header bar.
That is a modified WordPress toolbar slipped under the header.
Is there a way to include registration link inside the login widget? or is there a registration widget?
There should be some settings in the widget to input a registration link and a forgot password link too.
Hi,
I’m making a multi-languages website, and I’m starting with English (original), Arabic and Chinese. My team includes original speakers of each language so we can have a good view of which words are for humans and which are not.
The Arabic translation (which located here) is suck .. really!
I tried to edit the translation and download the new files, but I can’t because there’s a current translation I don’t want it.
Since I can’t create the file myself, my question is:
How can I make my own translation in the same way and download only what I translated?
Thanks in advance!
Nope I’m using remove dashboard access, https://wordpress.org/plugins/remove-dashboard-access-for-non-admins/ =) it’s the first one I came across which does exactly what I want.
I didn’t want to just hide the admin bar I wanted to completely disable it for anyone who isn’t admin.
And if someone try’s to access WP-admin they are redirected to a page of my choosing. =D
Any plugin that hooks into the default WordPress registration and adds special fields should add fields also to the bbPress registration form.
A plugin like this could add extra fields.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/cimy-user-extra-fields/
This site uses the [bbp-login] shortcode and there is a message on the registration page that says this site uses the same registration details as WordPress.org.
I am not sure why you would want the WordPress comment system on your profile, but a good alternative is to use the BuddyPress activity streams.
Hi all,
Just setting up my new forum using the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress, but Im having trouble handling user registration.
Ive used the forum login widget to handle logins in my sidebar, but im not happy with registration. I created a new page called registration and added the shortcode [bbp-register]. But this is really basic and not what a am looking for at all, unless its possible to edit it somehow, something I am fairly sure cannot be done to a shortcode?
Does anyone have any suggestion as to what login and registration plugins are good to use? Or anyone know what this bbpress site uses to handle its login and registrations, that looks good handling both functions in one tidy box in a single area.
Thanks for you help in advance.
🙂
