bbPress doesnt output shortcodes use something like this
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-do-short-codes/
you really shouldn’t edit core code…i hope you havent messed something up and now are getting a domino effect of issues.
you should also contact wp user avatar plugin support just in case too.
i gotta say email me , so i can double check your setup
Contact
im mostly going to ask how you set up your forum and see if i can duplicate the issue.
create me an admin account , so i can see what could cause it , i will email you when i enter the wp-admin and when i leave.

im not sure antispam bee is compatible with bbPress though, there is a plugin for bbPress that is inspired by antispam bee though.

maybe you should manually approve users using this plugin too

I’m seeing some weird freshness bugs on a bbpress installation (version 2.5.5). I’m using a different forum structure (a forum index, subforums, etc. – a traditional phpBB layout), so the bug is even more visible to the general public, but it’s certainly not the cause of these bugs, because I can easily reproduce the bug just by clicking on the trash link in the frontend or WordPress Admin and looking at the postmeta database.
I’ve tried using the admin tool to recalculate freshness, but it makes the whole situation worse. So, I have to manually change the freshness postmetas of all forums and subforums. 🙁
I’ve encountered at least three different bugs:
– wrong freshness set for parent forum and subforums after trashing a post
– wrong freshness set for forums and subforums after using freshness recalculation via admin tools
– no updated freshness set for parent forum and subforums after untrashing a post
This seems like a blocker to me. How can I help? Are those bugs covered inside bug #2414 or bug #1925?
I have been having this problem since i first installed the plugin, I am using bbPress Version 2.5.4, WordPress Version 4.1, with the theme Twenty Thirteen, and I cannot seem to get the replies to show at all, forums and topic appear fine.
I have already tried changing to Twenty Fourteen, and the problem did not disappear, and the only plugin currently active is bbPress.
I recently did a new install of bbPress (v2.5.5) on a site that had happily been running The Events Manager plugin for years. All Events Manager capabilities disappeared from all roles. According to the Events Manager support forum, I’m not the first reporting this. It was easy to fix as I had a backup of the previous capability settings, but something isn’t playing nice. WordPress 4.1.1, Events Manager 5.5.5, theme 2010.

An update on this.
I got it to work by editing the .htaccess file.
Add this code block at the start of the file:
<FilesMatch “^(wp-login|wp-log|index)\.php$”>
Header set Set-Cookie wordpress_test_cookie=WP+Cookie+check
</FilesMatch>

Hi Robkk,
Thank you for the reply. I’ve tried all the default WordPress themes from Twenty Twelve from Twenty Fifteen and the problem is still there.
I have not edited the role permisssions, no.
Any ideas on what else I can do?
Hi,
I had this issue since i very first installed BBpress along with the plugin – WP User Avatar.
The avatars are not showing in the forum at all. Its a completely bespoke WordPress theme with nothing in the functions.php to be doing any filtering or stripping out extensions of any type.
Ive also disabled every single plugin except bbpress & the avatars plugin & i still get the problem.
Can anyone please help me overcome this problem?
I did notice that in the bbpress / filters.php the line which says : add_filter( ‘bbp_get_reply_author_link’, ‘stripslashes’ ); had to be commented out because it was removing the backslashes from the avatar URL making things even worse.
I dont like the fact ive had to manipulate core code to do this. Surely there has to be a better was to get avatars working.
Thank you 🙂
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.
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.

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!
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
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.
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.

‘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.
