Hello, when I tried to access forum slug URL ” example . com/forum ” it gave me not found page, I don’t know if it is meant to be like that but I didn’t like it so I made the forums base the same, so is there a performance/seo penalty or errors tend to happen cause of that? of course it show me the two errors ( Possible bbPress conflict: Forum slug ) in the admin panel but everything else work as supposed, so is it okay?
It is possible to install bbpress only after disactivation of all in all in one seo plugin. When it switched on there are no permission error. What can i do with this problem?
hmm, the other plugin i listed earlier seems to have been pulled from the wp plugin directory, authors page for that plugin is here – http://www.vinojcardoza.com/cardoza-wordpress-poll/
this poll plugin is still avail and also works fine w bbpress 2.3.1 via shortcode
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-polls/
note that shortcodes in bbpress may create other probs as jared mentioned above, using plugins like these will allow you to specify allowed shortcodes via whitelist and exclude [bbp_login] etc
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress2-shortcode-whitelist/
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-bbcode/
and this one will allow shortcodes by user role

Hi Jared, and thanks for your reply! Well, the child theme’s is supporting bbPress it seems, and function file read the following from row 73 to 93:
/*———————————————————————————–*/
/* Initialize the Options Framework
/* http://wptheming.com/options-framework-theme/
/*———————————————————————————–*/
if ( !function_exists( ‘optionsframework_init’ ) ) {
define(‘OPTIONS_FRAMEWORK_URL’, PARENT_URL . ‘/admin/’);
define(‘OPTIONS_FRAMEWORK_DIRECTORY’, PARENT_DIR . ‘/admin/’);
require_once (OPTIONS_FRAMEWORK_DIRECTORY . ‘options-framework.php’);
}
if ( class_exists( ‘jigoshop’ ) ) {
require_once (PARENT_DIR . ‘/jigoshop_functions.php’);
}
if ( class_exists( ‘bbPress’ ) ) {
require_once (PARENT_DIR . ‘/bbpress_functions.php’);
}
require_once (PARENT_DIR . ‘/shortcodes.php’);
The strange thing is that this problem appeared after using the childtheme (unmodified) for a while. The first week it rolled just s expected.
Hmm…
Hmm, strange. The plugin should trigger the download of https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.zip which is 2.4 alpha (trunk).
We’ll have a look and see if the version compare isn’t running right. Thanks.
Unfortunately at this time there is still no poll plugin or capability that exists for bbPress 2.x.
It can certainly be done, however will require some coding knowledge and a little bit of elbow grease.
It sounds like your child theme is trying to load bbpress_functions.php which doesn’t exist.
Go to your child theme’s functions.php file and comment out line 89 which is portably the culprit.
Unless your theme was specifically designed to support bbPress (which honestly, most themes are not) it shouldn’t be trying to include said file so you can comment it out.
I think if you update bbPress using the Beta Tester plugin it should pull down trunk, which contains the fix.
Give a try and see.

UPDATE – I was able to edit the topic via the WP admin and get header and other HTML tags to work again.
I suspect it’s because it was an old topic and had a kink that needed to be worked out from the old version’s way of handling HTML.
I’m fairly confident that when creating new topics from here on out they won’t have the issue.
Thanks, Bryan

I never cared for the visual editor anyways, but the HTML form appears to now be stripped down.
Was header tag and other HTML support removed or is there something wrong on my setup?
Thanks, Bryan
Look into the bbPress shortcodes that are available.

Best Regards
GP
just a follow up in that i did some additional testing on a live production site and confirmed bug behavior so i just submitted a bug ticket here ->
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2325#ticket
Hi all,
I have run into a problem when trying to activate the bbPress plugin when running a Skeleton framework’s Childtheme. After activation, I get this error message:
Warning: require_once(/customers/6/4/a/developmentbysvalander.com/httpd.www/themetest/wp-content/themes/skeleton/bbpress_functions.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /customers/6/4/a/developmentbysvalander.com/httpd.www/themetest/wp-content/themes/skeleton_childtheme/functions.php on line 89 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘/customers/6/4/a/developmentbysvalander.com/httpd.www/themetest/wp-content/themes/skeleton/bbpress_functions.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/php’) in /customers/6/4/a/developmentbysvalander.com/httpd.www/themetest/wp-content/themes/skeleton_childtheme/functions.php on line 89
I’ve tried this on two different WP installations, and it crash ever time. The second one was a fresh install of both theme and plugin. As I am pretty new with PHP I don’t want to tr anything out that I know work, tht’s why I’m here.
Appreciate any kind of reply!

Hi, I’m a total newbie to bbpress, and I noticed that there are basically no menu options when users come to the forum – I set mine up at http://seoulprofessionals.com/forum – can someone please tell me what to do to get register/login/edit profile/other standard buttons? Also, I installed the avatar plug-in but it doesn’t seem to work.
Thank you very much.
Never mind. Forum role is assigned once visiting. Thanks bbPress. You rock.
I have a custom fornt end registration that registers users so they never see the wp-login page. after they register, they have NO forum role. As it turns out, this seems to fail silently and bbPress gives the user participant Forum abilities despite having nothing assigned. Is there some sort of documentation on how to assign forum role during registration?
@fishmilk – i don’t have an answer to your question but i too have been experiencing similar strangeness thus i suspect there is a bug in bbPress with new users ..??.. i’m outlining my issue below incase our experiences are related ..??..
i’m running tests on a multisite network and had bbPress installed on a sub site … then i installed BuddyPress and did some testing and that is when i found strangeness with bbPress as follows …
when i logged into the sub site forums with a user that was added previously to the site, then all was fine … but if i tried to login as a subscriber to the network but not to that site, then i got a series of 404 errors with forums and topics not found … these links worked to a non logged in user, and worked to a logged in registered user added to the site and worked for the admin, and these links as hover overs even showed the correct permalink structure … yet when clicked on as logged in user registered to network and not to site, the permalinks were screwy – e.g., site.com/sub-site01/sub-site01/forum/topic-xyz .. thus a double sub-site01 was being added …
so then i turned off BuddyPress and still same thing … then i turned off bbPress network enabled and enabled only on subsite as original and same thing … then i changed the network settings so that the default login for that subsite was subscriber and ditto, same thing in that a user on a network would not be able to access the forums … the only way for the new user to access forums is if i go to that subsite as admin and manually add the subscriber … then it seems to work …
my next step is to delete all my MySQL tables and try this again … partly because along my path i test the Commons in a Box BuddyPress plugin and that network enabled bbPress automatically even though i had bbPress enabled on the sub site … never thought to check that first and so not sure if something got corrupted a bit or if indeed bbPress is having issue with new users on a network (e.g., especially, if they haven’t posted, or commented in advance ??)
looping back to your error messages … i saw some of the same ones during my path … once i disabled Commons in a Box, and repaired my forums, things seemed to come back online but i noticed that one of the avatars for my test log in subscribers was missing which leads me to believe there is possible table corruption on this end ..??..
Ok so I had to partially give up, but I did come up with a partway solution. It’s still got some broken CSS here and there.
I am running a WordPress Multisite. I noticed that BBPress will lay out and mostly play nice with the Pinboard theme provided you set the layout to have no sidebars and to be 4 column. You can still have footers, thank god.
http://www.itinerantangler.com/blog/board/forums/
So there’s a live working version of BBPress. I did use the forums.php trick noted above to fix a few things for the time being. I would actually like to just DELETE the search function from the header, because it’s broken and it’s causing the layout to jump.
Currently BBPress can late load using the ‘plugins_loaded’ hook. Sometimes a specific theme will want to have certain adjustments to some of the items in BBPress.
I’d like to request the late loading hook being changed to ‘after_setup_theme’.
This would of course require some additional changes – such as where the hook for user roles happens – I just wanted to throw this up there to gauge interest and core developer willingness.
Okay – still not working. Instead of the p tag, which should not be there anyway, I see <p@gt; in the email.
I’ll post an image too:

Ack – that’s not right. Here’s what it looks like in the email:
<p>Hello, this is a reply to the test.</p>
I’m using the latest versions of both WordPress and bbPress.
I’m using the fancy editor (via the bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab plugin) and in notification emails we get characters like:
<p>Hello, this is a reply to the test.</p>
Is there a way to either send HTML-formatted emails from bbPress, or to strip out these characters and still use the fancy editor?
