@yetanotherlogin you can start off with the proposed patch at https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1933 adjust it to taste
Hello
A WordPress-based site that I read often uses BBPress for its forum.
It currently doesn’t support a mobile version, making it a pain to access from a smartphone.
Is there a good add-on so that BBPress can offer two versions of a forum, depending on whether it’s accessed from a desktop browser or a smartphone browser?
Thank you.
Can you try flushing your permalinks and let us know how it goes as I can’t reproduce your issue.
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.
I am not seeing that on any of my test sites… 2.2.4 and 2.3
Can you try using Twenty Eleven or Twenty Twelve theme rather than a custom theme and of course with all other plugins disabled and let me know.
It is built in… bbp_has_topics can be set using orderby to any of ‘author’, ‘date’, ‘title’, ‘modified’, ‘parent’ or ‘random’

bbPress 2.x is now a fully integrated plugin for WordPress.
Please see https://bbpress.org/ & https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/
(Closing this topic to prevent it being resurrected again)
bbPress 2.x is a plugin for WordPress just like any ‘other’ WordPress plugin and is no longer a ‘stand alone’ web app needing a bb-config.php. Everything is stored in the main WP database primarily using ‘Custom Post Types’ for the forum bits and all user bits are just WP users.

Hi guys,
I have a forums site though WordPress and bbPress and would like to know if the feature stated below is possible or hopefully created.
Hopefully it’s possible for there an alerts button in the menu bar that shows them recent replies to subscribed topics on a page.
What I need is for every time someone has replied to a topic they are subscribed to, in the menu bar the alerts link will have an icon with how many alerts (unread) eg (2) in an icon. This would require the alerts page too.
I saw this on forums powered by another forum software. (PAID)
I use the latest bbPress and WordPress.
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
ayden1232

My goal is to share one DB between wp and bbpress, one registration, seamless for users. The process of accomplishing this seems to have changed.
There’s all sorts of documentation on this topic and I’ve spent the last five hours trying to find my answer before bothering the good people of the internet, so I would greatly appreciate a hand now. It would appear that in recent changes, bb-config.php no longer exists? Installation process where you can fill out DB details in an easy form process seems to be gone?
Integrating with WordPress
So the settings must be in a config file somewhere! This infamous “WordPress Integration” section must be somewhere!
I’m using WordPress 3.5.1 and BBpress 2.2.4
Thanks.
you need to use something like GD bbPress Tools to enable shortcodes for bbpress

@rewindcaz I actually disabled all of the default avatar systems that WordPress provides and created my own with a few small functions. I needed a custom made plugin because each avatar on the site is unlocked when you receive a new card to your collection. Users can also customize their chosen avatar with nine alternative colours, which helps provide individuality.
As I’ve received a ton of feedback from the Rats Clan bbPress forum I’m going to start blogging about my code – I’ll make sure this is one of my posts! 🙂
I’m having a similar problem. WP 3.5.1, bbPress 2.2.4, and all bbPress posts are being pushed to my site’s primary RSS feed for some reason. I’ve disabled all plugins, but the problem continues. Any thoughts or ideas as to what may be causing this?
Hello,
I need help with creating a log in box. I know the shortcode to use in the sidebar or in a wordpress page is [bbp-login], but I would like to create a log-in-box right on the main page of the forums as seen at studiopress.com/forums. I know that for this I need to add the code to the php template, though I do not know the code. Can you guys help me with the php code? Thanks in advance.
I’m using bbpress 2.2.4
Can’t seem to spot a trend. I’m also noticing a lot of oddities. The “Group Forum” index from BuddyPress shows there are forums, within groups, that have posts. When I click to view any of the threads that show up on the Group Forum index, it says there are no posts.
Something must be misconfigured, as I can’t imagine WordPress & BuddyPress & bbPress should be this complicated. I’ll go back to the drawing boards and re-read some of the documentation.
Thanks for helping me get the majority of the user-issue figured out.
I can’t think of any off the top of my head…
Try searching for a plugin though…
https://bbpress.org/plugins/ or https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/
Thank you 🙂
Its good to hear it from one of main developer 🙂
Sadly it will take time to accepted in wp repo if they close my tickets without reviewing like https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/11449
I have installed bbpress to create a forum on my site, but i have a persistent bug or issue which hide all new topics and replys…
I get the “oh bother! No topics / forums were found here!”, even on my own (administrator) posts. I tried to reset, recount, reinstall the plugin, but no luck.
Even with Twenty Ten, Twenty Eleven and Twenty Twelve the “Oh bother” message appears.
Please can someone help me?

@jeffcubed We have a ticket open with trac on this issue. You may check it out here:
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2225
If you’re experiencing the same issue as described in the ticket, then you might want to chime in to increase the ticket’s priority.
Is it possible for unregistered users who write posts or start threads to also be able to recieve email notification when other users reply in their threads? This would be very much appreciated.
Thanks for a great forum solution
My WordPress version: 3.5.1

No not that I can see, it shouldn’t be doing what it is, thus it is a bug and needs to be fixed.
As above can you create a bug ticket on trac https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/
Do they show in the widget if the user IS logged in?
I suggest you create a ticket with as much detail as you can https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/
(Use your same bbpress.org user/pass to log in)
Ahhh… Cool… My Bad….
Take a look at `bbp_reply_class` in \includes\replies\template-tags.php#L1940
