bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

It could be a theme or plugin issue

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.

New on bbPress, we’re close to 2015, i want to install the one and only best social Facebook login option, so visitors can become users simply by signing-up with the Facebook account. This might mean also that if one day I remove this plugin, everything is kept inside WordPress/Database…, no ?

Here is what I’ve found so far, order in downloads.
Thank you for helping me choose.
Waiting for your advice 🙂

Turns out that I was having an issue with a limit on the number of custom menu items. The limit of menu items in WordPress is 90. When I activated bbpress and tried to add my forums I had exceeded the limit of menu items and was therefore unable to add my forums to the site navigation. There is a fix for this.

Create a php.ini file and place it in in “wp-admin” folder then add:

Put the following in your php.ini file:
max_input_vars = 3000;

Hi Robin,

The issue is that the meta title displays the url when Yoast wordpress SEO is activated. I saw this issue only for the profile, search and tag pages of bbpress all the others pages look fine with the page name and site name.

Here is a print screen of meta titles of serveral pages :

I’d be grateful for some help.

I’ve recently set-up a wordpress site using version 4.0. The theme is twenty eleven (I’ve tried other themes as well). So far, I’ve haven’t added any content or plugins.

The only thing I’ve tried to add is bbpress (Version: 2.5.4).

After adding this plugin I get a “Fatal error: Out of memory”. I’ve contacted my hosting company and they’ve increased the memory limit to 256M by adding define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’); in wp-config.php. I’ve uninstalled and re-installed bbpress but still get the out of memory error.

I’d be grateful for any help in resolving this problem.

Many thanks,

Darren

Hey Stephen,

Up until earlier today when I adjusted forum settings I believe it would just say “PRIVATE: Forumname”. Now I see “PRIVATE: PRIVATE Forumname”. Not sure what I changed to make that start happen.

Is there a reason why you would want to say “PRIVATE: PRIVATE: Forumname”?

I added the code you provided to the bottom of functions.php and no wordpress page would load.

https://gist.github.com/ntwb/8662354

I also tried saving ntwb_remove_protected_private_titles.php to my plugins directory with no luck. I guess I need a little more direction.

Thanks!

Hi this is also an issue for a forum I am an administrator for as well. Below is a copy of the email. I have changed the emails and organization name as this is a private forum but to give you an idea of the email that is received by the users when they subscribe to a topic and replies are made. This is a big problem for us as the email addresses should not be shared with other members. We are using WordPress to push the notifications, not another service.

Can anyone share a suggestion on how to have this fixed?

Is there a plugin that keeps an “Active Threads” list?

Is there a plugin to list in real time threads with new posts?

I saw that @mentioning is possible

Is it necessary to add “buddypress” features to a bbPress forum site?

Will the WordPress layout and colors automatically transfer to a new bbPress install making everything match right off the bat?

First impressions, I’m liking bbPress more than SimplePRess just because I can access the help forums and so some quality learning before having to spend any money. 🙂

Thanks,
Bart

Hi,
I have recently installed bbpress and I am using this theme – http://fthemes.com/onlinemagazine-free-wordpress-theme/ it is installed here -http://chill4uscarers.co.uk/ the theme works well for the front end , but on the forum as shown here http://chill4uscarers.co.uk/forumtest/ it doesn’t as it wants 2 sidebars and I only want to show one that is the bbpress sidebar with the widgets.
I have got installed bbPress WP Tweaks so I really want to know how to make the one of the forums php work with only one sidebar that is only the bbpress one.
Many thanks in advance.
Ross

The url of the page displays in the meta title only on the bbpress forum for the profile, search and tag pages.

Hello all

Now the problem is there is no forum menu in admin panel. Only new thing is forum statistics on
Dashborard when i login but if i try to click on it this message shows : Cheat you huh

[kingisback]

thnx, used the second plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-unread-posts/
works great.

[Robkk]

for just topic thumbnails you can use this https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-topic-thumbnails/

the functionality of that site might be something similar to this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-unread-posts/

for any other plugins you want just do a quick search

this one has integration with bbpress https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-monalisa/

[Zane]

Trying to run a conversion to fix the Anonymous posts. Ran it all day and came home and it was stuck again. I did the same thing I did before where I looked at the last row created in bbpress and found the same post in phpbb by comparing content, then deleted the next one. When I do this the import continues. I would think that since I did this and complete the import this second run of the conversion would run error free but that is not the case. It is near the end and appears to be hung again. I suspect it is no coincidence that it hung twice, just like before. Guess I am not deleting the corrupt posts. Not sure why it keeps going after I delete them. If I delete another random post it still hangs until I delete the right one.

If I wanted to have it print more debug information where would I need to edit? The only information I need is the bbpress post ID and wordpress post id about to be queried and a confirmation right after the query completes. This should let me find the corrupt post.

In the instructions on https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/import-troubleshooting/ I am not sure how to take the information printed on the screen now and map it to the database.

Now drop all the rows in the database that are not in the range of rows that failed during import

I am not sure how the “Range of rows” maps to the database tables.

I will include a request to include a debug option for conversions.

Thanks again for your help.

Assistance required please.

I installed bbpress and created a forum and a sample topic.
I made sure that this was set: “Allow users to subscribe to forums and topics”
The “Subscribe” link was visible next to the forum & topic.
I did a test and turned off “Allow users ….” and the link disappears (which is good).
I clicked on the “Subscribe” link and it became an “Unsubscribe” link (which is good), but when new topics/replies were made no email notifications came through.
I verified that WordPress is sending emails – so it’s not that.

What else do I need to do?
Do I need to provide any further information about my setup?

I would appreciate a step by step tutorial of how to go about setting up what I describe above. I want users to be able to select which forums and topics they subscribe to.

[Stephen Edgar]

@pooledge Oh! That is not good and would most likely be the cause 🙁

I just created a user Вук Стефановић Караџић (WikiPedia: Vuk Stefanović Karadžić) and indeed the user was not imported.

A quick look around and all we need to do is sanitize the username, I’ll look to add this to bbPress Core in a future release, probably quite a few bits of testing for other language scripts.

For now though install and activate @SergeyBiryukov‘s Allow Cyrillic Usernames WordPress plugin and these will import perfectly. 🙂

Also added this to our codex https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/import-troubleshooting/#cyrillic-usernames

хаве а нице даи 🙂

Edit: This plugin is a slightly improved version allowing with better support for Cyrillic and Arabic usernames in WordPress.

[Robin W]

If you have one of the two issues listed above, then you can se if the suggestions work for you, or wait. The first has a ticket with wordpress so hopefully will be fixed in 4.0.1

[Mizunga]

I need some help with one of my sites becouse I can not find a solution and don’t know where start looking for. The problem is that the posts appears also as a CPT I’ve created and as forums in bbPress.

WordPress SEO Yoast get confused when I try to check them and I don´t know why. I am using the last version of WP, bbPress, theme Hueman and PODs Framework for CPT. In this image you will understand better what I mean: http://postimg.org/image/bz0hyoa69/

[webshine]

i also found that when I installed WordPress 4, things went very weird. I was grateful that I managed to recover the site. my website is http://www.webshine.co.uk.
Is there an issue with wordpress 4, should I wait till its stable?

[Andi North]

When I upgraded a WordPress installation to use 4.0 from 3.9 the topics would not show on the loop-topic template neither would the topic content show when on single-topic.

I deactivated all plugins (bar ACF and bbPress) and used the default WP theme but the issue still prevailed.

I then reactivated all themes and plugins, bbPress was still broken.

I then overwrote the /wp-admin/ and /wp-includes/ folders of the installation with the WordPress 3.9 version(s) of the files and bam! bbPress was back to life.

There were no error logs on the website either.

Any ideas?

WordPress 4.0 isn’t critical to the site but it’s always important to keep on top of updates.

[Manoj H L]

Is their any idea for creatng JSON API extension for WP-API, work on JSON API for wordpress has already begun but still no has come up with the JSON API for bbpress. Is their any idea about what’s going on inside the bbpress core.

[Robkk]

this might be the only thing ive seen that shows related topics, requires yet another related posts plugin.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/yarpp-for-bbpress/

weddingbee uses bbpress standalone so you cant use what they have exactly
