Hi I have a problem still and I followed the steps of uploading the bbpress-fr_FR.po and bbpress-fr_FR.mo of the latest version with changed names to content/languages/bbpress but it still doesn’t work. It’s driving me nuts ! Help would be appreciated.
Thank you for your attention

few people having this issue, seems nobody wants to help.
Users can create new topics perfectly fine, but when a user replies to that topic after they click the reply link to submit the reply, they are redirected to my 404.php page, yet the reply is submitted perfectly fine.
Is there a setting im not seeing where you specify where users are redirected after reply submission?
Wordpress Version: 3.5.1
bbPress Version: bbPress 2.2.4
Other info: Currently developing my own theme. Running wordpress on my localhost.
Hello,
I’m using the latest version of wordpress and bbPress. Here is my site. BestFishingSite.com. And here is a link to the forums. http://bestfishingsite.com/forums/forum/forum-2/
The format of the forum is all messed up. Can you help me clean it up?
Hi fellas,
So in the midst of this change to bbPress, and while I’ve been incredibly impressed, the moderator functions are a bit perplexing.
Problem No 1: Currently, if Moderator ‘A’ deletes a post, it’s viewable to him on the front-end as something that can be restored. However, no other moderator or even Key Master can view this, unless they go in through the back-end and check the Trash. Logically, you would think that if all mods can see this queue on the back-end, it would be visible on the front-end to them as well. If mods take a team approach, as they often do, this would be a must.
But the real problem begins on the back-end, and assuming my bbPress is installed and functioning correctly (I’ve reverted to TwentyTwelve in case it’s a theme problem), posts that sit in the trash cannot be restored. Every time we try to Restore a post from the back-end, we’re met with “Are you sure you want to do this?” and an error occurs.
Problem No. 2: Key Masters can move a post to another forum from the front-end. Moderators cannot move a post from the front-end, but *CAN* move a post from the back-end.
Again, these inconsistencies are perplexing.
Unless, of course, my site is buggy … but like I said, I’ve deactivated all other plug-ins and even switched back to TwentyTwelve and it persists.
Thoughts?
im having problem with my forum website i created yesterday but its not working correctly
check the forum how it works

There is a new shortcode and widget for bbPress stats in the upcoming bbPress 2.3
I have the same problem but the link corrupt are simply bbpress topic link with “soundmanager2.swf” final suffix.
Example the right link is “http://mysite.tld/forums/topic/hello” but user go to 404 page because they have the link http://mysite.tld/forums/topic/hello/soundmanager2.swf !!!
I am nerd… i hope this news can help you to resolve.
Ah, I think I see the problem.
WishList Member does some trickery behind the scenes and has a history of not playing nice with bbPress due to some of the ways they implement their functionality.
I’d suggest contacting them and see if they have made any progress in figuring out the issue.
Here’s another thread, for reference, with a similar issue
Some users can't see first post
bbPress search has been implemented from scratch in bbPress 2.3 release. The new search does not piggyback off of WordPress search (which is what happens when you add the code above) and works extremely well.
Version 2.3 is actually in RC1 right now and is very stable, so you could upgrade to that and it would give you the new search feature.
bbPress 2.3 – Release Candidate 1
My recommendation would be to give 2.3 RC1 a whirl. Of course since it is RC1, do a backup before upgrading 🙂
No problem, thanks for reporting it. Things like this help us improve bbPress for everyone 🙂
Here’s the trac ticket https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2283
Any fixes won’t be until bbPress 2.4 so you’ll want to do some tweaks manually (like I mentioned above) in the mean time.
Alright, the resets we have in place in the CSS were for the list-style, not the background images or padding which seems to be what you need.
Putting this in your theme’s CSS will be a start, but you’ll likely need more CSS tweaks as you go to play nice with your theme.
`#bbpress-forums li {
margin: 0;
list-style: none;
background: none;
padding: 0;
}`
I’m going to create a ticket in trac to add these to the reset to help in the future.
Hi Jared,
No… I had removed it from the theme altogether (rather than renaming it) and also removed any reference to bbPress in the Style.css file too. Lastly I had to delete the old bbPress folder in the plugins directory in order to install this RC1 version as it wouldn’t install without deleting the old folder first.
So, now I am at a point where I have a fresh install of RC1 that you pointed me too, nothing in the Everest theme’s CSS folder reating to bbPress and nothing in the theme’s style.css file either… just the raw install of RC1 in it’s rightful place and nada…..? still looking the same as before.
The only time I had some marginal success previusly was when I wrote some css and put it into the style.css file of the theme, that at least changed the font to Arial and the size.
It’s driving me nuts as time is running out 🙂 so any further suggestions are really appreciated.
Thanks
Chris
This is a live site.
I use the following plugins other than BuddyPress and bbPress.
Akismet
FV Simpler SEO
Hello Dolly
Sub Pages Widget
WishList Member
WooSidebars
WordPress Importer
Ah, it appears at one point you copied the bbPress CSS file into you theme (which is correct).
Once you do that, bbPress will always use that file instead of its own. So instead of using the new 2.3 CSS file with the fixes it’s still loading the one and your theme.
Easiest thing to do is rename the bbpress.css in your theme to something else like bbpress-temp.css which will make bbPress use it’s own packaged CSS.
Hello. I’m about to launch my customized WordPress/bbPress/BuddyPress platform; it’s a quite large undertaking and eventually we decided for this, even though bbPress is a bit lacking in some aspects when compared with similar forum software, but we went for it since it granted more compatibility with WP/BP.
Anyway, I noticed an image today with Forum Statistics and Online Users List, something that I thought was not possible with bbPress. Here it is:
Can anyone of you tell me how can we do the same? Thanks in advance!
I’m not sure how this works with BuddyPress, but you may be able to try this plugin which typically shows what templates are in use.

Yep, it’s brute force, but at the moment is the only way, for non admin accounts, to see the forums if the wordpress installation is using also WPML plugin.
If i deactivate WPML, also non admin users can see the forums, if i activate, admins can see the forums, but non admins get a 404 error page.
Sorry bbPress wasn’t the right fit, good luck!
Hi I’m having a problem with my buddypress forums.
I’m able to create forum topics and view the topics I’ve created. But no one else who’s on the site can view the topics.
How do I make my topics visible?
We are using BP version 1.6.4
BbPress is version 2.2.4
Wordpress is version 3.5.1
Forum settings are allowed for groups and standalone. This issue is happening on all topics as far as I can tell.
See screenshots below to see what I’m talking about.
Here you can see the topics.
Here’s what shows up once I click on one of the topics.
Topic View
The post is hidden and all it shows is the option to reply.
Any thoughts on what’s causing this?
Hi there, I used to be using phpbb message boards, and found that many spammers would get round captcha. The best solution for me was an option to have a simple question for people registering like about the sport the forum was based on.
I am now starting out with bbpress, and being totally hailed with spam even using the captcha plugin for posters. Is there a simple question plugin, or one that has worked for others? Am sure this must be a common problem as registration is so simple!
Thanks
Hello ! WHERE I CAN FIND THE TEMPLAE FILE WHO GENERATES TJE FORUM PAGE OF A GROUP IN BUDDYPRESS SECTION ?? I have installed bbpress separated by Buddypress. i have 2 indipendent installation and i use bbpress for Buddypress group !
I relly need to know how to do!
Thank you so much.
Thanks Jared,
I will give that a try, the site will be going live next week tho, so lets hope a) it works and b) it’s stable enough 🙂
In the interim I did copy the bbPress CSS content into the main style.CSS style sheet and it helped (marginally)….
Will let you know how I go.
Thanks
Chris
Tell me about it!
No customization at all…… The following are the bbpress plugins I have:
1. bbpress admin bar adition
2. bbpress ignore user
3. bbpress like button
4. bbpress search widget
Do you think one of these is the troublemaker?
