I have a 404 problem with pagination on topics archive pages, for both admins and non-admins. The first page display correctly, but get a 404 errors on subsequent pages:
`
/topics/page/2
/topics/page/3
`
I am using a custom `archive-topic.php` on my theme and using the following plugins on WordPress 3.5.1:
bbPress 2.2.4
BuddyPress 1.7-beta2
User Switching 0.7.1
WordPress Post Type Archive Links 1.1
WordPress SEO 1.4.4
I have disabled all plugins and switched the theme to TwentyTen with flushing rewrite rules on every steps with no success. I have also changed the permalink structure to default `?post_type=topic&paged=2` and still not working.
On my attempt to debug `$wp_query`, at the `pre_get_posts` action hook, everything looks OK:
`
[query] => Array
(
[paged] => 2
[post_type] => topic
)
…
[is_archive] => 1
…
[is_404] =>
`
However at `template_redirect` action, query looks like:
`
[query] => Array
(
[paged] => 2
[post_type] => topic
)
…
[is_archive] =>
…
[is_404] => 1
`
I only tried that with topics pagination, not forums or replies.
Thanks.
i have a page called /forum that has the shortcode to display the forum index. When I click on a item it will go to that post. In the breadcrumb there will be home->forums->post, clicking on /forums takes me not to /forum where my shortcode is located but to the hard coded thingy that is defined in the plugin setup? So I have to mess around with trying to make templates just to get it working with my theme, when it just seems that if you make use of shortcodes for the operation of the forum, it would be compatible with ALL themes more or less. Is that a correct assumption?
As it stands now, I don’t think I will be able to use this plugin because I do not have the time to workout all the different things just to make it work with my theme. I really should not be complaining for something that is free to the community and it is not to diminish the great work of the developers, this is not my intent. After fiddling for days trying to get this to work correctly, I just came to the conclusion that maybe it would be better if shortcodes where used exclusively for the functionality of the operations, then all of these sorts of problems should become non existing.
if I could have a page called /forums that would override the /forums settings defined in the plugin then that would work, but how can you tell wordpress to do this? I looked and tried different things, but it all becomes way more work then it seems it should be when a shortcode would do the trick. Any way, I am curious to know how other people are getting bbPress to work properly with their themes. I am open to suggestions, ideas and thoughts.
Oh, one thing I did was to setup a redirect from /forums to /forum (forum index shortcode) and that seems to be working so far. Not sure yet what side effects maybe lurking as a result. So far so good. But when I sit back and think about it, what keeps coming to mind is… why? Why should I even have to do something like this??
Thanks

If you create a forum, then move it to trash, delete it permanently, and finally create a new board with the same name, it always gives it an integer
No, I cannot reproduce this.
Also, I have noticed another glitch. If I were to rename the permalink to /leaflet/ and then I change my mind and rename it to something like /leaflet-forum/ and then I finally decide to go back to the original permalink, it adds an integer even though there is no other board with that name and I have just been fiddling with the same forum this entire time.
Again, I cannot reproduce this.
I even deactivated bbPress, removed it from WordPress, deleted the bbPress plugin folder with FileZilla, uploaded the newest bbPress, and all of my forums are still there somehow giving the same error. So, there is something keeping track of forums (even when you go to those lengths) and it doesn’t realize that particular forum has been deleted.
Even if you delete bbPress as you have ‘the data remains in the database’ and this is by design, if you want data deleted you must use bbPress (or a myPhpAdmin etc) to explicitly delete the data.
First thing go to your permalinks settings page and change your permalink settings, click save, then change them back to your original setting and save again. This should flush any of the rewrites going on with WordPress.
If it still doesn’t work try switching themes to Twenty Eleven’ and try again.
Nope. There was a forum named “leaflet” a while back, but I have since permanently deleted that board. And I have repeated this particular error several times. If you create a forum, then move it to trash, delete it permanently, and finally create a new board with the same name, it always gives it an integer, as if the previous board still exists. I even deactivated bbPress, removed it from WordPress, deleted the bbPress plugin folder with FileZilla, uploaded the newest bbPress, and all of my forums are still there somehow giving the same error. So, there is something keeping track of forums (even when you go to those lengths) and it doesn’t realize that particular forum has been deleted. Also, I have noticed another glitch. If I were to rename the permalink to `/leaflet/` and then I change my mind and rename it to something like `/leaflet-forum/` and then I finally decide to go back to the original permalink, it adds an integer even though there is no other board with that name and I have just been fiddling with the same forum this entire time. Very frustrating.
Is this an install on WordPress Multisite?
Hello,
when I set someone to forum role ‘moderator’, he’s displayed as ‘Super-Administrator’ on his profile and in the forum.
Why is that? I haven’t done any changes at the bbpress installation.
Wordpress: 3.5.1
BBPress: 2.2.4
Thanks in advance for any advices!

I don’t really know what this issue is called. I created several forums here and, for some odd reason, when I generate a new forum, it gives me a permalink with the name of the forum plus a number, like so: http://www.happynakedpeople.co/forums/forum/leaflet-2/. There is no other forum named Leaflet and I would like the permalink to be as clean as possible. When I try to change the permalink to just `/leaflet/` it defaults back to `/leaflet-2/`. Why is this?
I am using WordPress 3.5.1, bbPress 2.2.4, and my theme is built around Starkers 4.0.
Looks like it will add many things I don’t need.
I am surprised wordpress\bbpress\s2member doesn’t have a plugin to shut down a site based on users time zone.
Wordpress has a plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/use-clients-time-zone/
this one picks up users time zone from their ip.
I was not able to find a plugin that will shut down a site based on the time of day?
I am looking to make my site unavailable from 10pm-6am for any user, no matter which time zone they are in.
Sorry for people that waiting, passed 7+ days from approved but theme is still waiting for WordPress.Org publish. Its probably my fault that i released some newer versions before it gets published. I cant give a date but at least theme will be in WordPress.Org soon.
Meanwhile you can check my example child-theme: http://theme.firmasite.com/example.zip
This theme;
- adds Flatstrap custom style to theme style list
- selects it automatically
- removing default default bootstrap style from list.
You can edit this child-theme however you want 🙂
I allow the BuddyPress groups on my WordPress to create forums however for every group that gets created I get another forum added to my bbPress page (mydomain.com/forums/).
How do I hide the forums from individual groups on the main forums page?
Note: all these forums are children of a “Group Forum” category.
Thank you!
As per above can you please create a bug ticket on trac https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/
We need as much detail as possible so detailed step by step instructions will help us to recreate the bug and find a solution.
Plugins in the old version of bbpress need to be uploaded by ftp, there’s no button or search for that. I advise you install wordpress and use the latest bbpress plugin version instead, even if you don’t want to use wordpress. I just converted from the standalone version a few weeks ago and I’m glad I did.
Why would you want to install a version that’s not supported anymore, when you have the option to start fresh with the latest version? You’ll run into a lot of problems eventually so might as well do it now.
Create a new wordpress page called “registration” (or whatever you wish to call it). On that new page add the shortcode [bbp-register] and publish it. Then add the link to the new page you just created on the sidebar widget, for example: your site.com/registration/
Here’s a list of all the shortcodes you can use: https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
ok! I solved it now!
how?
I copied my header.php and renamed it to header-activity.php
in this file I copied the following code in the
in my index.php I`ve replaced
“
with
“
I hope it helps s.o. else with the same problem of using the post-box as stand-alone on any other wordpress-site!
I have just installed BBpress 2.2.4 into WordPress 3.5.1
I have a login widget on my sidebar.
In this widget there is a field for a URL that will take new (unregistered) users to a registration page.
What is this URL? If it is specific to my site, how do I create/define it?
Add new roles with a roles plugin. You don’t have to use code. See: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/members
Hello,
I am using WordPress 3.5.1 and bbPress 2.2.4
Site: http://meditationpracticeornot.com/
I added a new keymaster user to create forums and when they login the option to create a new forum is not listed. I was previously using User Role Editor and the s2member plugin, I removed them because of other issues, but I am still having problems. Any help is appreciated. If any additional info is needed let me know. Thank You
Hi,
I have integrated successfully the post-form of what´s new within my index.php of my theme by integrating this code
unfortunately I do not see here the activity plus buttons (for links, images and videos).
what do I have to do to get them also on my front page?
thanks a lot for helping!

The widget works fine on the home.php. But when I load it on my category.php it shows recent posts from wordpress, not recent forum posts. Can someone help me and tell me why?
Hi people,
It’s possible because I have seen it, but how-to insert breadcrumbs before page title in bbPress (without using css)?
The title is handled by Worpdress, but if I add
php bbp_breadcrumb
before the title in a custom content-forum.php page, it doesn’t work.
Using a thirdy part plugin (like WordPress SEO by Yoast) will work, but in some pages I see Topics, not forums in the breadcrumbs (maybe due to the post_type), and it’s not really “clean”.
Who can help ne?
Thanks 🙂
FAQ – https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/
The following shows the current progress of bbPress translation to French for the ‘dev’ & ‘2.2.x’ versions:
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev
11% – 111 Translated – 879 Untranslated – 628 Waiting
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/2.2.x
% – 0 Translated – 952 Untranslated – 533 Waiting
So quite a few are done but needs an authorised ‘validator’ to approve the ‘waiting’ translations.
You can contact your local translation time via https://fr.wordpress.org/contact/ to find out who the bbPress validators are or if no luck request to become a validator yourself via https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/
I am pretty sure this plugin has something with setting the forum hours.

It hasn’t been updated in a while but there is an unofficial update on GitHub

Hi all
I have installed BBPress version 1.2 to act as a standalone forum alongside my online shop http://folliclehealth.com/forum/ (we don’t have WordPress installed). I created it in a separate folder so it doesn’t interfere with the main website.
Everything has gone brilliantly but I have found that there is no Install plugin button in the admin area.
Is this normal and if so, how am I supposed to integrate plugins (eg anti-span, etc)?
Please advise.
hello all
I am enjoying working with wordpress/bbpress/s2member on a new website.
I would like to make the forum unavailable to users from 10pm-6am. This will depend on the users time zone.
Is this possible?
Thank you
