Apologies all, this is not a bbPress issue, when bbPress is activated without any other plugins there are no notices, the notices only appear once activating both Yoasts’ WordPress SEO and News SEO plugins.
If you comment out this out of the News SEO plugin file class-meta-box.php
add_filter( 'add_extra_wpseo_meta_fields', array( $this, 'add_meta_fields_to_wpseo_meta' ) );
In the News SEO plugin the issue is resolved and no notices are displayed.
It appears to be related to pre_get_posts being used in WordPress SEO by Yoast, this was picked up in the WordPress Core ticket https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/31231
yes, use the latest activity widget in my plugin

I am receiving emails from all topics and replies to the forum.
The issue is that I am receiving those to an email address that is no longer and I get them as bouncebacks instead of proper emails.
I cannot find out where the setting to that subscription is. Can someone help me find this?
1) The email is sent to an email address that is not associated to any user in the database.
2) The emails have the “You are receiving this email because you subscribed to a forum topic.” footer.
3) I am getting those emails for all and any content posted to the forum.
4) The emails are sent to an address that is different from the one in “general settings” of the wordpress page settings.
ok, found the link in your other post.
Posts and comments are a wordpress thing and controlled by wordpress roles
Forums, topics and replies are a bbopress thing and controlled by bbpress roles
You’ll find wordpress roles at the top of a user edit, and bbpress at the bottom
Dashboard>users>all users>edit user and that’ll get you to the screen
and yes functions.php is where you should put it, but generally in a child theme
Functions files and child themes – explained !
so lets see if it will let me explain the other stuff with out being given an error…
Hi okay so I added 2 more roles by following the link above. The new roles show up and I can choose them in the User’s Profile and almost work with no problem but I am having a few problem. I did not give permission to alter “Posts” or “Comments” for either new role that I created and it is allowing the new roles to change everything about Posts and Comment sections. I did give permission to alter “Forum” in the new role Moderator-FLO but that doesn’t work.
So I checked to see if the regular Moderator role that comes with the plugin allowed for editing of the Forum and it also does not. I don’t know where to go to check the permissions to see if I can change it but I have been searching for the last hour and a half.
I also checked to see if the regular Participant role that comes with the plugin worked like it was suppose to and that one is perfectly fine although I would like to change creating topics temporarily.
In your forum on the link above that I have added I could not find where it says to add the coding, so I just assumed, taking a chance that it would work in the function.php file in my theme. So that is where the coding is located.
Can you tell me where to find the original Moderator permissions that comes with your plugin? Or anything to tell me what I could be doing wrong? These roles are super important to this type of forum and I could use all the help I can get…. This is really my first time working with WordPress but I’ve been doing HTML since 1998 self taught… I have been out of the game awhile.
Ok so I’ll simplify this a bit:
My Moderator role will not allow any editing of the Forums but will of Topics and Replies. I am able to see the backend WordPress menu and frontend. I also don’t want it to have access to editing Post or Comments in WordPress pages.
My New Role “Moderator-Fol” I can’t access the backend WordPress menu at all to even see what it will let me do or not do. On the frontend login it will not let me create a forum at all, only allow to create, edit, or delete topics and replies.
My New Role “Participant-Fol” Is able to create topics and I would like to be able to turn this off for now until I figure this all out. It can’t access the site through the back end and that is fine. Other then that I am almost ready to go. I am doing this site as a charity for a Mental Health Support Group so I can’t afford any paid for plugins.
Thank you SO MUCH! in advance.

Ok so I’ll simplify this a bit:
Our forum is open to members only, utilizing private forums and private topics. Something happened and my Participant users can no longer open private topics. Setting aside the “something happened”, how can I verify that my users all have the read_private_topics and read_private_replies capability? If they do not, how can I give them all that capability? We have about 3,000 users, so it cannot be done one at a time.
If they do have read_private_topics and read_private_replies capability, what could be another cause for them being able to see the private categories and forums, but not see the list of topics or see the topics directly?
Thanks,
Mike

bbPress 2.5.7-5693
Hi guys,
In the passed I created a website with bbpress.
The default bbpress theme was horrible bad readable.
So I found a way to change the theme so it would match my wordpress theme.
After update the theme got reset to the default bbpress theme again.
Now I have created a new wordpress website.
I stumble at the same problem again.
Is there something simple how I can change the bbpress theme (user friendly)
I have been reading forums and this is really giving me an headache, all solution are based on editing files, creating child theme ccs files etc etc, all complicated stuff.
There must be something user friendly to change the default bbpress theme right?
Is does not have to match my wordpress theme, if I can just select something different that would be great.
Friendly regards,
Pascal

It might be that some comment form data is on the template that bbPress is inheriting.
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/
You can create a bbpress.php and remove any comment code , or you can install this plugin and disable comments and trackbacks on bbPress post types.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/no-page-comment/
Peter’s Login Redirect plugin should work for what you want to do.
I am guessing since you are saying “forum page” and you made that private , that you created a page and put the forum index shortcode in it.
Well since you chose to make that page private , it makes sense that Admin rights can only see it.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Content_Visibility#Private_Content
What you should do is just redirect to yoursite.com/forums and whatever forum you want private
make the forum private by editing the forum and setting it to private there.
New install of bbpress v2.7.5 on wordpress v4.2.2
Question: How can I redirect to /forum after login? I have forum page set as a private page. bbpress forums need to be private and only accessed by registered users.
I have searched for info on how to login/register and then redirect to a forum and haven’t been successful in finding a simple solutions. Some solutions look too complicated regarding writing code. I would assume there is a simple solution here.
I have tried a redirect plugin (peter’s) and doesn’t work for bbpress users set with any bbpress role but does work if I login in as wp-admin with wp admin rights.
It was https://thedomain.com/ for wordpress and bbpress was standard, so https://thedomain.com/forums/
For the path, it was standard for WP Engine:
/nas/wp/www/cluster-1234/thedomain/
The log was just getting spammed with that error until I added that array(). But it wasn’t the big problem, so I wouldn’t have looked or noticed it unless I was having some other unrelated issue.
not yet but there are plans to include something to list moderators

WordPress 4.2.2
bbPress Version 2.5.7
s2Member Pro Framework Version 150311
From Users when using Bulk Actions to change an s2Member Role (from e.g. Free Subscriber to Level 1) bbPress Forum Role changes from e.g. Participant to No Role.
Updating Role 1 User at a time (clicking Username then Edit User) bbPress Forum Role remains Participant. So no problem updating Users 1 at a time.
I have searched the webernets tirelessly for an answer to this problem with no luck. I was checking out the example forums you list here bbpress.org/about/examples/ when I came across a site called tamrielfoundry.com/ and I noticed that they break up groups of forums. If you look at the first section “General Discussion” and click on one of the forums you will notice that the URL changes from tamrielfoundry.com/forums/ to tamrielfoundry.com/forum/general/general-discussion/ If you click on the top forum in the next section you jump from tamrielfoundry.com/forums/ to tamrielfoundry.com/forum/classes/class-discussion/ They seem to have the ability to have more than one single forum. Is this even possible with bbpress or has this site changed to a different forum? If this isn’t bbpress, is this kind of thing even possible. I would love the ability to break up sections of forums even if I have to somehow create a main forum page and build it by hand. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

About Me
@mette_chr
Email me a link to your site and create me a subscriber/participant account
I bet could get this fixed fast with some CSS.
Contact
Your theme is causing the issue , especially its styles for WordPress comments.
Try this custom CSS
#bbpress-forums .reply a {
font-size: inherit;
line-height: inherit;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
float: none;
color: #c1052c;
}
#bbpress-forums .reply a:hover {
color: #42a202;
}
Also in your CSS your links do not really have a defined color to them. There is this CSS, but it should be something like this #c1052c
p a, a {
color: c1052c;
}
Update: For anyone else who has the same issue, this plugin seemed to solve it for me.
