I had the same problem, go to tools > forums > Remap existing users to default forum roles (I think that is the right one to do).
One of those recount/remap tools did the trick for me, good luck.
Okay, but I thought in order to remove the sidebar from your forum (i.e.: a full-page forum) you need to be working in “themes” not “templates.”
Let me be more to the point. I have a website with a custom WP theme, (http://www.gamehounds.net/).
I want to intgrate bbPress forums under the tab “Forum.” I want the bbPress forums to be full-screen without the sidebars, but of course I want to keep the sidebar in the rest of my site.
After a LOT of reading… including your wonderful thread that says Never Modify bbPress core files, I built a child theme and activated it.
But when I go to where says to in order to put my bbPress theme into my child-theme file, there is no “themes” folder.
I do have a “templates” folder, but it doesn’t seem to have any information for themes where it instructs to “get sidebar,” which from what I read is the thing that I want to “//”.
Does this make sense at all? Again, apologies for being kind of numbskully about this. I’m really just hacking around in the dark and learning as I go.

@etanr, I am glad you like FirmaSite theme. That problem is fixed and will release in new version. Meanwhile you can fix it if you want or just wait for next release. Details:

Hi.
Using FirmaSite and liking it a lot.
I do have a problem though.
Anytime a member leaves another member a comment on his profile, it shows up as html code
Any idea how I can solve this? It is really ruining an excellent presentation otherwise.
Thanks
This is exactly what I came here to ask about…but it appears that these forums aren’t monitored very frequently. I installed bbPress and I have the ‘Forums’ entry added to my WordPress Settings but, just as for Jim, there’s no Boards, Topics or Replies section anywhere in the Dashboard.
Wordpress 3.5.1
bbPress 2.3.2
https://bbpress.org/login/ submits data directly to https://bbpress.org/wp-login.php – they use the exact same code to process your login. Sounds likely that there’s a cookie somewhere in your browser’s cache that’s being stubborn.
Happy you found a solution that works for you, and sorry you’re having trouble.
Oh wait. Brain fart. I found it. Sorry for the last two posts. It was kinda hidden.
No, more like I’m a moron.
Thanks.
Additionally, inside:
wp-content/themes/myActiveTheme/… There is no “bbpress” file. So I’m not really sure where bbpress is pulling it’s theme from. If I did, I could copy that theme and drop it into the myActiveTheme file. But until I figure out where it’s getting its information, I’m kinda stuck digging around.
That’s the thing.
I go to wp-content/plugins/bbpress…
And there’s no “templates” file. So can’t really copy anything from templates as… it doesn’t exist.
Wow, I just found the solution for myself. Cookies didn’t matter… I cleared them many times and used different browsers too.
I noticed that everytime I logged in, it would redirect me to the login screen, showing me the fields, even though I had successfully logged in. I have been consistently anonymous on bbpress.org/forums and a couple other forum pages, plus many topic pages, every time I’ve logged in this way.
I tried bbpress.org/wp-login.php instead, and that’s working perfectly. No anonymity issues anymore! So I guess there is an issue on the custom login page at bbpress.org/login
I’m using 2.3.2 and this is my solution.
There’s a function in the theme files calling this, simply noting it out or deleting it prevents the call.
// bbp_single_topic_description();
content-single-topic.php
and
// bbp_single_topic_description( array( 'topic_id' => bbp_get_topic_id() ) );
form-topic.php
This makes more sense to me because why generate the HTML just to bloat your CSS file to hide it? Or why add more to your functions.php file when all you need to do is some basic theme work? (Although that was some clever hacking of the wordpress/bbpress hooks there mindyjoy :))
*Make sure to move all your theme files into your wordpress theme (wp-includes/themes/your_theme/buddypress/) so you don’t lose your work with an upgrade.
Not sure where you’re getting your info, but it’s not correct. 🙂
bbPress uses your existing WordPress theme, and allows you to customize the individual templates as you see fit. You can copy the template files you want to customize out of:
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/
and drop them in…
wp-content/themes/YOUR_ACTIVE_THEME/bbpress/
where YOUR_ACTIVE_THEME is the name of the currently active theme on your site.
Then start editing them, and you should see your edits come through.
Try deleting your bbpress.org cookies. We did some moving around of the site, and I suppose it’s possible the old cookies are conflicting.
In bbPress’s default configuration, this is by design to support styling for widgets, which can exist outside of bbPress’s standard page views. You’ll need to write a custom plugin to dequeue bbPress’s CSS when ! is_bbpress().
Can someone tell me how to report a copyright infringement to Worldpress?
Hi All,
Sorry if this has already been covered, if so just point me in the right direction.
Basically, I theming my bbPress and it’s all going great, except I need to do some work on the template-tag.php files found in ‘includes/users’, ‘includes/topics’ etc… and I obviously don’t want anything to be overwritten by updates…
I already have the template-tags file working fine in my theme’s ‘includes/common’ folder, but just can seem to get the system to actually see that I’m using other folders.
Do I need to declare the folder structure somewhere? What is it that I’m missing…?
I’m using the latest live versions of bbPress and WP and the folder structure I’m using is:
themes >
mytheme > bbpress-functions.php
bbress > loads of very well named template php files
includes >
common > gets seen just fine…
users > nothing working from here.
topics > ditto…
Many thanks for any pushes in the right direction…

i dont think bbpress css file on its own would cause this sort of server load, try the P3 profiler plugin to determine what other plugins may be overloading your server –

I’ve been carefully examining my web access logs because my provider said my website is using too many resources – and even though I would say it is absolutely medium in size it uses about 50% of the resources on the shared hosting site.
I noticed that for EVERY page called from the website, whether or not is a forum page and whether or not it contains and bbpress plug-ins -especially not- includes a call to the bbpress style sheet. For example:
http://www.hippressurecooking.com/5-cant-miss-pressure-cooker-chicken-recipes/
GET /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css/bbpress.css?ver=2.3.2 HTTP/1.1
Any way for me to block this call so that I don’t use-up unnecessary resources for my website and risk getting kicked off my shared server?
Thanks,

i am not affiliated w tehnik plugin in any way, nor am i selling anything, i am co-dev of PanoPress (which is totally free) but no connection to any of the plugins i mentioned here other than using them on my own sites
i am just trying to help out here as i had been beating my head against this same prob recently, i’ve seen lots of non-working solutions suggested in this forum, and the bbpress devs do not always have time for these issues 🙂
also, i want to encourage development and use of this plugin, and hopefully see better integration of restricting forums to a particular user role in future versions of bbpress, which is a critical missing feature for me

bbPress на русском (bbPress on Russian)
Please, if you want to get support in Russian, visit the official Russian support forum.
Пожалуйста, если вы хотите получить поддержку на русском языке, посетите официальный русскоязычный форум поддержки.
WP version: 3.5.1
bbPress version: 2.3.2
site: http://www.villainouslair.com/forums
When I attempt to purge the forum data via Tools > Forums > Reset Forums, the reset page seems to process, then refresh, but there is no error or success message, and the forum data is untouched. This is the case regardless of whether or not I check the “This process cannot be undone” box.
We’re also running bbPress reCaptcha v.1.1, if that might be an issue?
Bear with me. Very new to this.
I just installed bbpress 2.3.2 via the plugin directory in my wp site. Works fine from what I can tell.
I have a custom site and I want to make a few layout tweaks to my forum pages (eliminate sidebar, yadda, yadda). I am currently hosting my site locally using MAMP so I can blow things up with impunity. Don’t know if that matters, but I’m putting it out there.
Here’s the deal: I made a child directory on my theme and the many step-by-steps said I have to put it in my plugins > bbpress > themes folder.
I go there and SURPRISE! No themes folder.
Am I missing something?
make sure you have members and tehnik plugin installed and activated
see the Tehnik bbPress Permissions page for more info
http://www.tehnik-design.com/tehnik-bbpress-forum-permissions/
use the content premissions pane (from members plugin) on the forum edit page to control which roles can access that forum
try the User Switching plugin to confirm other roles can see what they are supposed to see

Bump
What’s up with this issue folks? I’m using the “(bbPress) Recent Topics” Widget also for clarity.
Just to show the people who can code..
This is what I would like to do with a little bit of CSS and JS without adding my own <textarea> and BBcode buttons.
Real Pixels
The default toolbar buttons are positioned at the top of the <textarea> and with a little bit of JS I can hide it by default and let it pop-up when text inside the <textarea> is selected.
Right now I have to delete everything thats default and create my own <textarea> + BBcode buttons.
