And I moved your topic to a separate topic and wrapped some code backticks 😉
What happens if you create a new third user? Does the same weirdness occur?
Looking at the backwpup_admin is this from a plugin creating a WordPress custom role? Maybe https://wordpress.org/plugins/backwpup/?
If that is the case what happens when you disable this plugin and try updating the roles?
Again with that plugin disabled what happens when you create another new user?
I still see plugins enabled, the issue cannot be reproduced with only WordPress 4.0 and bbPress 2.5.4, thus in every instance thus far this issue has occurred it has been a plugin conflict, we need to find this conflict to work out where to from here.
It should take only a few minutes to test this as I outlined in my original reply above.
This could be an issue with your rewrite rules. To fix this try resetting your permalinks. In your WordPress Administration Screens navigate to Settings > Permalinks, select a different permalink structure and save. Then select your preferred permalink structure and save again.
So full issue,
If I go to the top level (category) forum
Home
this work and show the forums below it however if you try and access the forums
Home
for example you get a 404 error
Trying to access individual topic
Home
for example works.
Creating a New Forum by itself with no parent also works.
However when I add a parent to it, it gives me a 404 Error when I try to view it.
I have this forum set to type category
Home
this currently has two children
both of which show a 404 Error when you try to open them (even when you ‘view’ from the edit screen.
However when I go into and edit these forums to have no parent, then click view. I can see them
This has happened since upgrading to WordPress 4.0
This behavior persists even with all other plugins disabled on the site
This narrows it down to something happening with the parenting of forums
I don’t really code in PHP so cant really give much more insight.
Any help would be appreciated, if any more info is required please ask
Thx
John
Hi, sorry for kicking this topic, but I’m having a problem probably related to this.
I have a site with 2 admins/keymasters. As soon as I activate bbPress the other admin loses his role. Apon checking the database I find for him the wp_capabilities change from:
a:1:{s:13:"administrator";b:1;s:14:"backwpup_admin";b:1;s:13:"bbp_keymaster";b:1;}
to:
a:1:{s:15:"bbp_participant";b:1;}
When adjusting his rights in All Users -Edit the only roles available are: Subscriber, Contributor, Author and Editor.
And when I disable bbPress and go into All Users -Edit, I can have the full list of roles (Keymaster, Participant, Blocked, Spectator, ..). These are forum roles, not general WordPress roles. Even in the database I find the 2nd admin (actually the 1st admin btw) now has the wp_capabilities a:1:{s:13:"bbp_keymaster";b:1;}, which is clearly bbp related.
I’m running WordPress 4.0 with main plugins Theatre (http://wordpress.org/plugins/theatre/), WordPress SEO (by Yoast), Contact Form 7 and some minor plugins for adjusting posts, background and the like (nothing role related).
I am experiencing the same problem. I have updated to WordPress 4.0 two days ago
Any of my old links to the forums just result in a 404 Error
I also get a 404 if I access through the /forum route on my web address
Our website is http://www.sailscorpion.co.uk some of our users have raised it with us.
Any help on this would be appreciated
I don’t have any of the plugins shown above
Thanks
John
I’ve got the same problem as @stargatecarterpack
Whenever I go to a topic, it just shows the first reply, and blank if no replies.
None of my plugins match the OP list. I’ve gone back to 3.9.2 for now. I’ll try the one-by-one approach on plugins at the weekend, and report back if I find a fix.
Hello,
If you mean the (bbPress) Login Widget, no i dont’t use it.
When do you think the update will be released ?
@hackerzcity2
How do you de-update the preview version of wordpress please ?
Using WordPress 3.9.2, bbPress 2.5.4 and BuddyPress 2.0.2. Site is password protected I’m afraid. It is using a custom theme, based on Responsive.
is_bbpress() is returning false on any bbpress pages that fall under a BuddyPress group. If this seems to be custom theme related are there any tips for debugging?
I found the bug in plugin with some validates. Never liked if ($var) constructions. if ($var !== false && $var !== '') better to understand 🙂
Just replace content of plugin.php in plugin folder:
https://github.com/korobochkin/bbPress-permalinks-with-id/blob/master/plugin/plugin.php
Tested on brand new WordPress install only with bbPress and my plugin with default theme – works as… haha.
Same problem with me on my site watch wrestling so i de-update the preview version of wordpress and i work again. just wait for few days next bbpress update work fine in wordpress 4.0 version
Hello,
Since last wordpress 4.0 update, users and admin can’t log out anymore.
When deactivating bbpress everything work fine.
Any suggestion ?
Have the exact same issue, and just happened recently.
I’m not using WooCommerce but it’s a pain in the ass.
I recently updated to WordPress 4.0 and think that may have something to do with it. But mine’s active in a membership site and have many angry members so will need it fixed asap!
Haven’t installed any plugins recently which could conflict so I’m not sure…
Hi guys, newby here. Initially I unpublished my Forum & when I reinstated it the my topics are there but when I click on them I get Error 404 – Page not found!
The page you trying to reach does not exist, or has been moved. Please use the menus or the search box to find what you are looking for.
Couldn’t figure it out so I re installed bbPress & I’m back to the same issue! My website is http://www.discounthomebrewsupplies.com.au
Some help here would be great, I’m a newby at the whole wordpress/woocommerce thing so bare that in mind pls! Thanks
Positive and positive. Now I’ve just made a clean install in English and set permalinks to postname. All works just fine, but right after activating the plugin all new nicely regenerated urls such as domain.com/forums/forum/11 or domain.com/forums/topic/13/ lead to 404. Unchecking forums/ prefix and flushing permalink settings doesn’t help. My wordpress installation directory is domain root, bbPress installed via plugin.
Maybe I can help you by providing more technical details from somewhere?
Hi!
Embedding Youtube video worked fine on my site until 1-2 days ago.
I was using Smart Youtube Pro plugin and lately alongside that also the WP Youtube Lyte, since some subscribers reported problem with youtube video when viewing my site via iPad.
SO, everything worked ok, on my blog posts/pages/comments as well as within bbpress forums. In forums, videos were embedded either with http:// or https:// link, all worked ok. On the rest of the site (post/pages/comments) they were embedded either via httpv:// (Smart Youtube Pro and WP Youtube Lyte requirement, well, it became optional now) or normally (http(s)://)
Now, “all of a sudden” some of the videos are not embedded in forum topics. And in no particular pattern that is: some https videos are embedded, some not, some http:// are embedded, some not.
I recently upgraded to WP 4.0. but a few days ago I downgraded to 3.9.2. due to problems with bbpress and s2member (see topic)
So… Does anyone have a clue what is going on? I should probably make a developer page and then test plugins one by one to see which one is causing the problem? An easier way perhaps?
Great response form S2member team !
I’m just a humble user not a dev, but hopefully netweb or JJJ will be in contact with the S2 guys.
For those that have been bitten by this, I know how painful it is, in the early days I just upgraded plugins and wordpress in the belief that they would work until one day my site broke, and I was in panic for 8 hours when I had least time to fix it.
When WordPress announced auto upgrade, I was very suspicious that anyone could release software confident that it would not screw up any of the several thousand plugins based on how it worked!
So the following for those bitten, and others who do not want to be bitten going forward !
If you are not happy for your site to be down for 24+ hours then :
1. Turn off wordpress auto update !
2. Create a test site https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
yes that takes time, but the comfort of not doing stuff live is fantastic !
3. Don’t do upgrades of wordpress/plugins for the first week (UNLESS they are deemed critical), let others find the faults – yes I know that is bad to say, and if no one upgraded we’d never make progress, and I write plugins that I need people to upgrade to, etc. etc., but many people’s site’s aren’t critical, and if your is, don’t be leading the charge !
4. Check the support forum for the upgrade
for wordpress https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting
or your plugins support page
you’ll soon find out if there are issues
5. Upgrade your test site first, the spend some time checking all the critical bits
6. When you’re happy that your test site works, then make the move in live
I really feel for those who have been sent into panic, but maybe the above will help for next time
I just happened upon the following post on foliovision.com:
https://foliovision.com/2014/09/wordpress-original-bbpress
The key points are:
We still use bbPress version 1 on some of our websites. It’s powerful and integrates well with WordPress. Alas the recently released upgrade to WordPress 4.0 breaks the integration
WordPress 4.0 changed the cookie format and also the hash function, so without this fix bbPress won’t understand that you are logged in.
I’ve added a link also in the codex http://codex.bbpress.org/legacy/integrating-with-wordpress/
Note: This is only relevant for bbPress 0.9/1.x “Legacy” stand alone version of bbPress and NOT the current bbPress 2.x plugin for WordPress.
No, you don’t need Vanilla installed, you just need a copy of the database on the same server database server you are using for your WordPress install, once your happy with the import you can remove the old database (keeping a backup of course).
I’ve already seen a couple people with the problem but without much avail, I’m not running any plugins mentioned yet I still experience the problem after updating to WordPress 4.0
I’ve already reverted my wordpress installation as I can’t really put the forum out for more than a day, I’m running the following plugins on my site:
Adminimize
AdSense Click-Fraud Monitoring Plugin
amr shortcode any widget
BAW Login/Logout menu
bbPress
bbPress Custom CSS File
BulletProof Security
GD bbPress Tools
Google Adsense Dashboard
Google Analytics Dashboard for WP
Inactive User Deleter
Limit Login Attempts
Theme My Login
WP User Avatar
Does anyone know what plugin could be causing the problem if this isn’t a problem with BBpress?

OK, going back to WordPress 3.9.1 “fixed” the problem temporarily for me too – didn’t have to change custom links as someone had mentioned earlier. However, I would still like a permanent fix to this that does not require me to stay with a soon-to-be-out-date version of WordPress to work.
Thanks,
