Hi Lynq,
Thanks for your reply! I’m using a theme built for bbpress (Bounce: http://demo.ghostpool.com/bounce/) so I think it comes already built into the theme.
The theme author pointed me to this thread, which I’d found myself earlier and doesn’t seem to address the issue in my case because I don’t have a file front-page.php: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-text-to-home-page-of-forum/
I have asked the author to tell me what the equivalent to front-page.php is, or where I can go to find this file (I can’t find it in Appearance–>Editor or Plugins–>Editor–>bbpress) but if anyone else has ideas on how to accomplish this I’d really appreciate it because I’m not sure he really knows how to help me.
Thanks 🙂
Liz
For those having problems with Roles/Capabilities where s2Member/bbPress is concerned, you might want to take a look at this thread for some helpful tips. We’ve been working with some folks on this lately, so perhaps this thread will save you some grey hair 🙂
See: http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/uninstalling-s2member-causes-permission-issue/#post-35231
Thanks to everyone for reporting this compatibility issue between s2Member and bbPress v2.2+.
I’m Jason Caldwell, a developer over here at s2Member.com.
The latest release of s2Member includes a fix for this compatibility issue.
(s2Member/s2Member Pro) Compatiblity.
Updated to support Dynamic Roles introduced in bbPress® v2.2. Discussed in this thread. Also see changelog: http://www.s2member.com/changelog/#s2-changes-v121201
Please let us know through the forums at s2Member.com if you have any further trouble. Thanks again!
Do you not want to use your default template for bbPress then? You would like to use a different template?
Just as a thought in that it wouldn’t hurt to try is to compare some of the latest and previous versions of bbPress to isolate if it is an IIS issue or a bbPress issue for certain.
The latest /trunk (overnight changes are always expected):
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk
Also try 2.0, 2.1 or any build really via https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags
(Each page has a ‘.zip’ link to download the particular build)
If you have a look at the details on the ticket you created we are not able to reproduce this so the ticket has been closed. If you can provide detailed steps to reproduce the issue reopen the ticket and post those details to the ticket.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2071
If you go to the github page, then click zip, that’s the download link 🙂
What I was looking for was bbp_topic_freshness_link();
The starter theme looks great. I don’t see any download link?
Thanks Stephen. Unfortunately the web.config made no difference 🙁 Neither did changing the permalinks to every option or removing slugs etc.
I also tried setting up a fresh WP Install with a clean copy of bbPress but it did the same thing.
I am stumped and completely out of options at the moment :-/
I look at my network stack trace and notice when I hit “Submit” the error code returned is a 302 Moved Temporarily, this is when it redirects to the wrong URL.
Debugging the code, it seems to hit the same place in query.php about 2-3 times meaning it’s loading the correct page, getting redirected to the wrong page, then loading the wrong page…
Thanks anyway, hopefully someone else will have this problem with a solution at some point!
Does anyone know why bbpress isn’t showing the seo title and description?
This is what I posted in the WordPress forum, maybe this will be more clear.
I want the forum and topics to have the tree structure in the permalinks. Is there a way to get the bbPress permalink structure to look like this:
When viewing a forum:
Instead of: /forums/forum/forum-slug/
I want it to be: /forum/forum-slug/
When viewing a topic:
/forums/topic/topic-slug/
/forum/forum-slug/topic-slug/
Problem Solved: I originally had set up the forums so that after 25 minutes the post would be locked. I set it to a much higher number (99999) and subscribers can now edit their posts.
Must be something to do with how BBPress handles the calculation of the time limit.
I see how to change the slug text but not the structure.
Hi
Any idea where i can find plugins for old version of the BBPress 1.0 ?
Many Thanks
Have you copied the bbPress compat theme files out of the plugin and into your WordPress theme?
The settings can be changed inside the settings > forums area. Have a look and see if they help.
Still nothing?
I’m in desperate need of it for a client. Kind of their last wish before we go public… What to do? Someone wise dude who’s willing to help out here and wirte a simple plugin for this? Or maybe fix a hack version of it?
Will there be a fix for this anytime soon?
Hi, for some time I’ve got a problem with 404 error everytime I submit a post. (the post is saved but i got bad redirect 404 error)
I’ve tryed to use Tools->Repair Forums, updating Permalink settings and updating
Forum settings.
I’ve trun off bbpress plugins as well… nothing helps
After submiting, the redirect URL goes wrong. it doubles the “blog”:
https://domain.com/blog/blog/?topic=topicname/#post-1800
or sometimes: https://domain.com/blog/?forum=topicname%2F#post-1805
Whats “%2F”??
Is there anyone who knwos how to resolve it?
Hey Nathan,
Thanks for helping out. If you paste this entry into your hosts file:
109.73.162.147 apa.uk.com
, you’ll see the Forum at:
apa.uk.com/forums
just dont use the www. As you can see, each entry is peppered with bullets. Thanks again for your input.
Hey guys,
When I go to create a new page on my website there is no “page attributes” section and so I can’t choose a template. I have templates where it is present but to be honest they’re sometimes boring looking, sometimes messy looking. I really like my theme with a nice neat slider sweeping across the screen.
Is there any way to make my theme compatible and if not are there themes with sliders that look neat that are already compatible with bbpress? Where would I find them?
here’s my site if it helps.

Bowe,
I can’t seem to register for an account to have a closer look, can you set me up an account and I will have a look around. I just followed you on Twitter so you should be able to follow me back @netweb and send login details via a DM with Twitter.
Actually to be more specific I mean:
/forum/”forum-slug”/
when viewing a topic: /forum/”forum-slug”/”topic-slug”/
On wordpress version 3.5 and bbPress 2.2.3 is there a way to tweak the permalinks on bbPress so they look like
when viewing forum: /forum/”forum name”/
when viewing a topic: /forum/”forum name”/”topic name”/
