When I try and do it manually on the WP admin dashboard, it also forces me to make them a user on the blog, which I don’t want. I want them to only access the forum.
bbPress users ARE WordPress users so as @ronthai points out just make the users WordPress role ‘Subscriber’ to which point you may as well just use the built in users panel in your WordPress admin.

Hi,
It was lovely of Milan to add hooks to his bbPress Digest (see here: http://blog.milandinic.com/2013/12/15/bbpress-digest-2-1-customizing-emails/)
But I think he does not have much free time for non-developers, which I can understand. I was wondering if anyone can helps with implementation?
I just want to update the From and the Subject.
Thanks
– Open up the WordPress admin users section
– Click delete on imported_LinDan94
– Check the box “Attribute all posts to:”
– Select the username LinDan94 from the dropdown
– Click ‘Confirm Deletion’

There might be other plugins also just do a search
On the WP side you can always just keep them at -No role for this site- or just subscriber, which just means they can read, but not write posts on the WP side.
Hi guys,
is there any solution to have same nicks in WordPress and phpBB, which you want to import into bbPress? For example, when I do this with my forum nick ‘LinDan94’, it’ll be overwrited with ‘imported_LinDan94’, because the same user exists in WordPress. How can I link this 2 accounts together?
Thanks in advance
I want want to remove the permission that moderators can delete topics and posts from the trash. But how can I change the standard permissions from bbPress?
I made this code but it doesn’t work because bbPress roles are separated from WordPress roles:
function changePermissions() {
$role = get_role('moderater');
$role->remove_cap('delete_others_topics');
$role->remove_cap('delete_others_replies');
}
add_action('init', 'changePermissions');
As it is used in many spots I would suggest you add the translation now.
Most of these translations only happened in the past two days so I would expect you won’t have to wait long for the translations to be updated.
Once you translate that string fill out this form https://he.wordpress.org/contact/
More info is also here in Hebrew https://he.wordpress.org/translate-wordpress/
In the WordPress dashboard on the left side, there was the “Forum” tab which is gone now and I cannot set up anything for the bbpress plugin now.
How can I fix this?
Anyone is using wordpress seo by yoast and bbpress please confirm that this is not a bug and this is my mistake: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-number-does-not-work?replies=1 . I have been struggling with Yoast and he says this is not a bug of WordPress SEO.
In short: please check to see if %%page%% in wordpress seo titles work for BBpress pages like topics and forums. For me, it does not work anymore.
Thanks,
It looks like “Topic Status” has not been translated yet 🙁
Hebrew 91% Translated 943 Strings Translated 92 Strings untranslated
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev/he/default?filters%5Bstatus%5D=untranslated&sort%5Bby%5D=priority&sort%5Bhow%5D=desc
You could help by translating those 91 remaining strings and then fill out the form here and let them know “There are some strings for bbPress waiting to be validated”, once these are approved you can update your translations.

Note: In the very near future any updated translations will arrive via WordPress’ automatic updates 🙂
If you are talking about this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-threaded-replies/ then you are probably correct as “threaded replies” are now build into bbPress.
I think we solved the issue. I believe the “threaded replies” plugin is not compatible with the latest WordPress update. Thanks!
This is not even a new test site as you mention above, this is still your old test site from that article I linked to above.
Whatever previous hacks and or workarounds you have added are most likely still in place causing the issue, delete that entire site and database and start with a clean slate, install WordPress with a clean database then install bbPress.
Maybe this plugin will do what you want 🙂
bbPress Protected Forums adds a metabox, shown while editing a forum, that allows you to disable new topic creation for determined user roles. The plugin is perfect for those situations that you may want your users to see the list of topics of a forum but don’t want them to create new topics.

@cyberdrone See this to get the translations or get started with translating bbPress. https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-protected-forums/
@david7h6 What shortcode is broken?
I just read this http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/bbpress-user-profile-page-problem/
Whatever the issue was with your theme that you had the issue with in July and fixed in August is back. As you stated in that thread bbPress works fine with Twenty Twelve, I am not sure what these dynamic templates are or how they work but most certainly this is your issue and not a bbPress issue.
I would also recommend if you are going to setup a test site to test WordPress & bbPress, you don’t add all the extra plugins like BuddyPress, Members, Jetpack etc as they add more complexity to an issue you are trying to isolate, so you should remove all your plugins except bbPress.
I have a site on WordPress Version 3.8 running bbPress Version 2.5.1… I have a forum under a parent forum that participants cannot post topics in. The error they get is:
ERROR: Your topic cannot be created at this time.
I am not sure why this happens – the forum that is causing this error is configured as:
Type: Forum
Status: Open
Visibility: Public
Any thoughts on why this might be happening? The users of the site also are part of BuddyPress incase that may shed some light on this error. Anything I should look at? Thanks.
The best way to start is to get a website up and running with bbPress, then copy the bbPress template files from the plugin into your WordPress theme – once you get to that stage then take a backup of your full WordPress theme files.
Then get stuck in and start changing some of the bbPress template files, if anything goes wrong just upload the backup and your reset (make sure you take a backup at set intervals so you don’t lose things you want to keep).
Good luck!
Can someone tell me the name of the hook/filter that I can use to take an action immediately AFTER there has been a new post in a forum? I want to be able to send out some emails to special groups of subscribers when a post is made on a forum. I have tried the wordpress hook publish_post but that doesn’t seem to work.
help!
Stephen
Thanks for pointing me towards the plugin. Unfortunately I am still learning my way around WordPress and bbPress. I haven’t gotten to the point where I am customizing templates. Would you have any additional tips? or a resource you can point me to so I try and figure it out.
Hello,
After I install and activate bbPress plugin in my WordPress, I can’t see forums, replies, setting etc in my WordPress Admin Panel. This is the first time I use bbPress, so I don’t know what to do.
Please help me.
Wordpress version: 3.8

Just wondering if anyone can tell me how I can add a user to participate in the bbpress forums, but not allow them access to sign on to my wp-admin panel. When the registration email is sent out, it includes in the default message the sitename/wp-admin for them to sign on. I don’t want my forum users to get routed there, but want them to just be sent back to the forum sign on page internally.
Any help? Am I missing something simple?
Hi Stephen,
In my search for a “fix” I totally forgot about the popup “Crayon Syntax Highlighter” offers.
I’ve been playing around with this for about a year now and ended up using “CodeColorer” as I was creating my own WYSIWYG editor. I think I’ll explore the Crayon option again.
As for the editor; I don’t know how to start such a wider discussion.
I agree that ideally you’d like to use the editor that comes with WordPress, even if it’s just to stay more consistent (comments vs forum posts).
How would one go about that?
