HI Netweb
I did have that setting checked, although unchecking it has no effect. The issue remains.
Thanks
Ian
Do you have the ‘Fancy editor’ setting checked in WP-Admin -> Settings -> Forums?
Use the ‘Import Forums’ tool in WP-Admin -> Tools -> Forums that is included with the bbPress plugin, it is based on bbConverter but has had quite a few improvements since the last release of bbConverter.
After some research on this I found this bug trac : http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1955#comment:2 and tried the solution with no success, can you offer any help to help me use these costume contact fields and have them work with the bbPress user profile?
WP: version 3.4.2
bbPress: Version 2.1.3
Allright figured it out 😀 Finally got it all working!

I’ve managed to get the Sitewide forums to work with the Activity. I’ve disabled the Discussion Forums within Buddypress, and in the settings of Bbpress 2.0 I activated the All Users can create Group Forums.
Just trying to figure out now how to create group forums without the discussion forums activated.
The very important difference between these two forums
1) Sitewide forums; adding favorite, creating or replying to any topics in sitewide forums does not show up in Members directory. It does however show up in the activity stream.
But with this it gives no ability to keep track of your created or replied to topics.
2) Sitewide forums allow you to make subforums just like wordpress allows you to adress a parent page. You can adress several Subforum to a Parent Forum, so to create the PhpBB structure most forums contain. Group forums will not allow this kind of structuring. You just have 1 Forum per group containing topics.
3) Group Forums however do show up in member directory so you can easily keep track on your created and replied topics under your members profile page using the subnav Forum.
4) To respond to group forums members must join to the belonging group first, where sitewide forums lets anyone who has registered to your page create topics and reply to them.
Your welcome, I guess it only works on thesis version 1.x, version 2.0 of thesis is different than other lower version of thesis.
Thanks! Quick question…does this work for Thesis 1.x only or does it work for Thesis 2.x as well?
I figured it out. I placed the bbp_replies_pagination_count (and topics count) within the headers of both loop-topics.php and loop-replies.php. I also had the change the CSS class for the “Posts” block in the header and reduced the height to make sure everything lined up properly. My theme really did not like bbPress but it’s almost 100% working now. Thanks for your help!

Using bbconvertor, from bbpress 1.1 to WordPress 3.4.2. Starting with a default WordPress, fresh startup. Started bbconvertor after filling in the settings on wp. During conversion, said I had no forums, but I have five forums. See below. Said conversion complete. Told me to do a recount, click here, which I did. Then it said “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.” So I recounted on the bbpress dashboard. But that didn’t change things. Would it be better to use import forums? Please don’t forget to update your counters HERE Conversion Complete Convert posts (400 – 499) Convert posts (300 – 399) Convert posts (200 – 299) Convert posts (100 – 199) Convert posts (0 – 99) Convert tags (200 – 299) Convert tags (100 – 199) Convert tags (0 – 99) Convert topics (200 – 299) Convert topics (100 – 199) Convert topics (0 – 99) No forums to convert parents Convert forums (0 – 99) Delete users wordpress default passwords (0 – 99) Convert users (0 – 99) Not Cleaning Data Starting Conversion…

Never mind. I was using bbPress 2.0.2 I’ve upgraded to 2.1.3 and all is good. 🙂
Hi Pez
I’m having the same problem. did you get to the bottom of this?
Cheers
Mark
I’m having the same problem, althought I thought it had something to do with my theme so I dismissed it. But I have exactly same problem, I cannot insert any media in posts or add a link to my posts and pages anymore as soon as I activate bbpress. Quite annoying I must say ^^ I have no clue how to fix it thought I’m afraid it happened after the last update from buddypress because before I updated everything was still working.
same question,when bbpress is easily used like wp?
No response? Has no-one else seen this problem or has any advice?
Thanks
Ps. If I’ve reported this problem in the wrong place, or inappropriately, my apologies. Let me know and I will rectify.
Hello, I am brand new to bbPress and love it so far. I know you can subscribe to forum topics, but is there a way to subscribe to all posts by a particular forum user? Are there any plugins available? I have tried searching and haven’t made any progress.
Thanks!
I should mention that a lot of features are ‘in flux’ in 2.2. The roles I believe are pretty much now finished, but there is a lot of other work going on with it. Expect a few things to not work as expected and then to have things that were working to stop working. The new vs. is such a huge change in many areas that the guys are really fleshing a lot of stuff out still. I’ve learned the hard way not to use bbPress trunk on live sites, but I can say that fixes have been coming quickly once I create trac tickets for them.
I uploaded it to my server for you, http://makemeawebsite.asia/bbpress-thesis.zip
You can download the file and activate it to your wordpress admin.
Cheers,
After updating, 70% of my site (buddypress+bbpress pages) are not functioning. I want to revert back to 2.1.2, the error that occurs is Class ‘BBP_Theme_Compat’ not found in /site url/themes/ExampleTheme/Functions.php on line 858.
I would like to revert to 2.1.2, can someone provide a download to it please.
Doesn’t make any sense.
Performing the recounts will fix this for you. When users post content, recounts automatically for that topic. You’ll have better luck using the tools in bbPress than waiting for it to happen organically.
Is that plugin in the repository? I can’t seem to find it via searching.
Hello!
How to make bbPress look from default layout (just after installation) to
like this:

Thanks for help, im newbie.
Greetings!
Thank you very much for the quick response. In the course of following up with your suggestion I discovered that my problem is actually not a broken process, but one that is severely delayed. I posted a test reply to a topic and then was called away for a couple of hours. When I came back the reply was there just as it should be. So the forum is working but suffering a lot of lag.
I can imagine that the issue causing this may fall outside of the scope of this forum, but if anyone is willing to suggest possible next steps to solve the problem I would be grateful. The forum is hosted with a major provider on a more than basic level service plan and does not typically suffer from lag. I do notice that when I save topics or replies it can take 10-15 seconds to process. That was not the case with the stand-alone bbPress we had.
