In the receiving end, bumping topics here is really annoying, so I’d recommend not doing it. 🙂 These forums don’t move quickly enough to necessitate it, and we’re all volunteers that will help you whenever we have the opportunity to do so. A bump, even with friendly intentions, just ends up making us feel bad because we took a few days off, and making us look like we’re lazy to everyone else.
Also, cryptidwolf is incorrect, and offers nothing to this conversation that helps you with your issue(s) of which it seems like there are 2; the first being you can’t get the forum index sorted, and that once you do, you want it to look differently than the default templates look.
The way I suggest fixing it, is to create your own custom page template with the look and feel that you want your index to have. It’s no different than a WordPress theme; if you want it to be different than it is, you sometimes have to do it yourself.
The forum/category sections are a layout that a few people are working on, and certainly could be a bbPress core feature. Since bbPress has always been topic and content focused, the forum layout isn’t something that gets a lot of attention. Sorting out the forum/category hierarchy and layout is actually a pretty complex set of loops to automate, as it involves checking depth and walking a tree of forums that could potentially be outside of the current scope.
I haven’t bothered looking too far into it since it’s something that will take concentrated time and effort, and there are other things bbPress needs before that becomes the top priority to put time towards. If you, or anyone else wants to put the time in because it’s important to you, I’d happily review and commit a patch to make sure it’s included in future versions.
I know this isn’t the best set of answers you were looking for, but it’s all I have for now.
Shouldn’t be happening with Twenty Ten. Basically, this is a nonce check error. Nonces are used through out bbPress to make sure you’re actually invoking actions on your own request, and that someone hasn’t duped you into doing something you didn’t want to do.
This is the first I’ve heard of this, so some plugin or theme is really interfering with things. bbpress.org is always running the latest build, so if it’s not broken here, it’s not broken in core.
hey I got a some problem. I’m using Rating-Widget Plugin n I can set up for topics in forum at my dashboard but it doesn’t work.
If I fix it, I will post here later.
Can I say “HAHAHAHA”? I racked my brains out last night.
Here’s the best solution. BBRESS Just doesn’t like you theme, plain and simple.
Tried 23 themes before I found out there’s special themes for BBpress that you have to use,
other themes won’t work.
I was having the same exact problem you where
That’s exactly what I’m looking for. I found one web site http://kingscast.net/forums/topic.php?id=5 It seems like to use social it which isn’t available now. https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/social-it/
So I tried to add sexybookmark into my website like social it but I’m still struggling insert sexybookmark to topic.
Is there anybody to solve this?
Been 24 hours again. Bump
I see that a lot of people have an issue with this in some form or another, but I’ve only seen one fix– a non-explained hard-coding. It’s unfair to everyone.
I want to be able to change loop-forums.php to look exactly like loop-single-forum.php. That means a new table for every category, a Freshness (author name and avatar, as well as latest post time) for every parent forum inside a category, and the displaying of “content” below the forum title, if we have content on the forum edit page (people usually use that for a description of that particular forum).
Changing the CSS to make each forum have its own line is easy. The REST of the things you have to do to make the forums root, or forums index, look like a single-forum page, is hard.
This is a much-needed tweak. Pretty much everyone would benefit from it. I will keep bumping this as long as I need.
I do want to say that I love bbPress though. I’m not giving up on it in the foreseeable future.
While creating new topics from list of topics I am getting this error (red outlined box):”ERROR: Are you sure you wanted to do that?”and no topic is added. I am able to add topics through Dashboard/Topics interface (admin console) WordPress: Version 3.4.1bbPress: Version 2.1.2 I am using custom theme but tried with default “twenty ten” theme. Result is the same – no topic is created and error is shown. Have no idea where it comes from. I suspect this started happening after WP 3.4.1 installation. Any ideas?

Followup:
Based upon another post (From John) I deactivated bbPress and reactivated it (Which I thought I had done several times).
I also went into the “Tools” > “Forum” and recalculated everything. I was still having some replies not showing up!
I went into “edit” those replies and found that they were not assigned to any “forum” or “topic” at all. I edit them and assigned a forum and topic and the showed up.
However: I could find the forum that they should have been assigned to, but the proper topic was not even available in the drop-down list…. I just had to select the closest topic I could find.
Perhaps someone can tell me why the replies would not have any forum or topic assigned to them??
Thanks,Shep
I know this topic is old, but I have to bring something up.
That is the answer that we are always given, but there is still a major problem– the breadcrumbs still link to the forums-index page. How do you get the breadcrumbs to link to your new page?
Hello,i’m french 😐 (sorry)
I use a WordPress 3.4 and a buddypress 1.5.6. With it a bbpress 2.1.2.My WP theme is Frisco for buddypressmy bbpress theme is BBpress default because I can’t select another one.
My bug is on a “members/username/forums/“My sidebar is running out.all over pages are ok.

I used a http://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/ but how I can select it in the adminpanel.
Thank’s a lot.

it works now 🙂 it was the permalinks that was caused problems, Thank you very much for the help
Try refreshing your permalinks /wp-admin/options-permalink.php by changing them to a different setting from what you currently use, save, then change them back to your preferred preference and save again.
i forgot about that 🙂 sorry… my wordpress is 3.4.1, bbpress is 2.1.2 and theme is suffusion 4.2.8 all is update. my bbPress worked perfectly until now
Edit: I just try with bbPress (Twenty Ten) and it’s the same “Not Found” and below “Apologies, but the page you requested could not be found. Perhaps searching will help.”
Twenty Eleven: “This is somewhat embarrassing, isn’t it?” below “It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching, or one of the links below, can help”
on each theme is the same so where can be a problem?
I also try to delete plugin of bbpres again and installed but the problem is the same

Hi friends! I’m using BBPress 2.1.2 and BP 1.6, and the avatars at the forums are shown in low resolution. I was looking about this issue and I found a lot of ppl asking the same: is there any way to show the avatars in a better res?
I would appreciate A LOT if you can help me with this!

As your question is specific to the ‘bbPress Rating-Widget’ please use the plugin support forum:
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/rating-widget
When you create the ‘forum you can assign the following permissions to each forum:

Hi….
I am using the HTML5 Reset Blank theme, and I am designing the theme from scratch. The question I have is this, is bbPress a Theme, or is it just a Forum Page…. Sorry if I am confusing you.
I guess what I am asking is this, can I just create a Page in my Blog called forum, add the Forum to that page using the short code?
Thank you….
