There is a ticket for a future release.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1989

you can hide them all with CSS

#bbpress-forums .bbp-topic-content ul.bbp-topic-revision-log, 
#bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content ul.bbp-topic-revision-log, 
#bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content ul.bbp-reply-revision-log {
  display: none;
}

if you want to delete the old revisions use a plugin like WP-Sweep

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-sweep/

@arunkumaridi33

use this

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-forum-redirect/

edit forum 1 and scroll to the very bottom and add the url of forum 2.

save the forum

now it should redirect.

[Robkk]

use the bbPress shortcodes

https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/

[bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id] – Display a single forums topics. eg. [bbp-single-forum id=32]

this plugin will help you out find any posts ID

https://wordpress.org/plugins/reveal-ids-for-wp-admin-25/

go to forums>all forums and you should see the ids

bboress just uses wordpress registration and login, so any plugin that works for wordpress will work for bbpress.

6 Useful WordPress CAPTCHA Plugins

bbpress also rides on askimet to help prevent spam entries, just check that you have enable it within the forum settings.

Unless your site has many new users, you could easily use manual registration, it takes less than a minute to set a user up in wordpress manually. That way you stop spammers dead in the water.

I was working on optimizing the site using a tutorial from http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/the-ultimate-quickstart-guide-to-speeding-up-your-wordpress-site–wp-23846

When I got to the part on using the plugin “WP-DBmanager”, I backed up the database. I then repaired it. When I did the optimize part, that’s when I got the 500 error. I called the hosting company and not sure what they did. Eventually, they did a database restore from a weekly file. The error logs from that restore showed lots of errors. When I finally got the site back, the final result was the topics were there with no forums.

Hey everyone,

I’m wondering if there is any way I can change the background color of this box when I log in on my wordpress site. Please let me know of any ways that do or may work.

I have Provided a picture of what I mean below

Thanks in advance!

[Robin W]

just to jump in here

bbporess 2.5.5
wordpress 4.1.1
Twentyten theme

and no other plugins does not have this issue.

Therefoere it is likely to be a plugin or theme issue

as suggested by Robkk, suggest you

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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

[Robkk]

to create a forum go to forums>new forum in the wordpress backend

I don’t see how I customize it or set up topics or set up so only certain people can subscribe to it

for certain people to subscribe to it might be custom development post a job at http://jobs.wordpress.net/

Is there a video I can watch on how to start?

there is guides in the bbPress codex , but no videos

Codex

you can search youtube for a tutorial, make sure its at least in the past 2 years, anything older than that might be for the old versions of standalone bbPress.

[Robkk]

ahhh so they have admin capabilities then since they have the WordPress role of Admin.

well , when i registered through i think the BuddyPress registration form, and i cant see anywhere to get into the backend right now.

see if another plugin is causing the issue.

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.

‘Normal’ users get the message “You cannot create new topics.” when you add echo do_shortcode ('[bbp-topic-form]');

This is a similar topic to this message created almost three years ago, has anyone a solution for the current (latest) version of bbpress and wordpress.

[madvibes]

Wordpress defines User roles as: Subscriber, Contributor, Author, Editor, Administrator. Admin being the highest level of control, obviously.

BBpress seems to have roles defined as: Keymaster, Moderator, Participant, Spectator, Blocked.

I have WP set to give new users Subscriber role
I have BBpress set to give new users Participant role

HOWEVER, when somebody creates an account in BBpress, they are given the Forum role of Participant BUT the WordPress role of Administrator.

The site is http://bkparties.com/bkbp-resourcecenter/

Thanks @robkk,

I appreciate that, I’ll go through some CPTs next week and play with the settings to see what the cause is and if it’s a setting will notify bbpress, etc. Otherwise if it’s a general CPT issue will raise with WordPress.

Enjoy your weekend
Cheers

[madvibes]

I think it’s bbpress, actually. I have wordpress set to give new users only Subscriber level access, which is fine. when somebody registers for the forum through bbpress, they are given administrator level access. If i register a new user outside of bbpress, they get Subscriber.

[Robkk]

@madvibes

its not bbPress its a WordPress thing.

you can deactivate your bbPress then switch to a user that is a subscriber then see if you can reach the WordPress Backend.

usually if the role is not admin it wont show plugin settings , theme/plugin editor , or anything they shouldn’t touch. they should only edit their profile.

but like i said if the subscriber user has admin capabilities , thats a real issue.

[madvibes]

Thanks, i’ll look into that. BUT *why* would BBpress give a newly registered forum user admin-level access to wordpress. it makes NO sense at all.

[Robkk]

@madvibes

this plugin might help, subscribers and other roles usually can edit their profile in the wordpress backend, its not just for admins/authors/editors its just most users like it this way.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-admin-no-show/

but if you do have it where your users register than have admin capabilities then go post a job at the link Robin provided.

[Robkk]

@awpt

create an admin user for me so i can see whats causing the issue, and send the login details to my email.

Contact

[Robkk]

email me some login details for an admin account you will create , so i can see the plugins and try to see what plugins might cause the issue.

im not going to deactivate any, i just really want to see the whole plugin list so you dont have to write it down here for me.

when im done , ill tell you to delete the admin account you created for me.

Contact

Hi,

Im using a bespoke WordPress theme for my site which ive created myself.

Ive fully customized BBpress & put the theme inside my WP theme too.

So far so good, it looks great & works fine too. But one problem is that the Breadcrumbs at the top of my page throughout the website only display:

Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum

If i then go into the GENERAL DISCUSSION SUB FORUM / TOPIC I get the following:

Home / Forum / General Discussion

Instead i should be getting:

Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum / General Discussion

If i then go to click a topic in general discussion I get:

Home / Forum / Hello all forum members, what do you prefer?

instead of

Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum / General Discussion / Hello all forum members, what do you prefer?

The current code I have written in my functions.php for the breadcrumbs is:

<?php
function the_breadcrumb() {
    global $post;
    $post_type = $post->post_type;
    echo '<ul id="breadcrumbs">';
	if(get_post_type() == 'forum' OR get_post_type() == 'topic' OR get_post_type() == 'reply') {
		
	  echo '<li><a href="';
        echo get_option('home');
        echo '">';
        echo '<i class="ts-awesome-home" style="font-size:14px;letter-spacing: 2px;"></i> Home';
        echo '</a></li><li class="separator"> / </li>';
		echo '<a href="https://hub.driveworks.co.uk/forums/forum/">Forum</a>';
		echo ' &nbsp;/&nbsp; ';
		echo  the_title();

	}

    elseif (!is_home()) {
        echo '<li><a href="';
        echo get_option('home');
        echo '">';
        echo '<i class="ts-awesome-home" style="font-size:14px;letter-spacing: 2px;"></i> Home';
        echo '</a></li><li class="separator"> / </li>';
        if (is_category() || is_single()) {
            echo '<li>';
            the_category(' </li><li class="separator"> / </li><li> ');
            if (is_single()) {
                echo '</li><li class="separator"> / </li><li>';
                the_title();
                echo '</li>';
            }
        } 
		
		elseif (is_page()) {
            if($post->post_parent){
                $anc = get_post_ancestors( $post->ID );
                $title = get_the_title();
                foreach ( $anc as $ancestor ) {
                    $output = '<li><a href="'.get_permalink($ancestor).'" title="'.get_the_title($ancestor).'">'.get_the_title($ancestor).'</a></li> <li class="separator">/</li>'.$output;
                }
                echo $output;
                echo '<span title="'.$title.'"> '.$title.'</span>';
            } else {
                echo '<li><span> '.get_the_title().'</span></li>';
            }
        }
		
    }
   
}

?>
