I recommend going to settings > permalinks, changing your permalinks and then changing them back.

Give that a try.

I’d like to install bbpress 2.1 RC2, but I currently have bbpress 2.0.3 running on my site.

What is the best way to install the beta version without breaking anything ? Upload the zip file via “add plugin” in WordPress admin panel ? Overwrite the old bbpress files via FTP ? Uninstall 2.0.3 then install 2.1 RC2 ? Other solution ?

[docchewbacca]

Not sure if it will fix your problem, but try this :

– go to settings > forums in your wordpress admin panel

– click “save changes”

John, I did some preliminary tests and the results aren’t looking good.

I left my comments on trac: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1885#comment:3

[vibol]

John, this is amazing! Thank you for fixing this.

I’ll have to update my installation to your latest trunk before I can test.

I will let you know how it works out.

[John James Jacoby]

Yeah; the meta queries are really awful.

I think I’ve resolved the issue. You’re one of the first people to report back using bbPress 2.x at that scale, so I’d love some feedback on the change.

They are mixed into the database, yes.

I’m using BBPress 2.0.3 and WP 3.4.1

[rezaff]

I am new to wordpress but had it up and working fine.

I then installed bbpress per the instructions.

The installation seemed to go fine, but after trying to create a custom menu for the forums clicking on any link gives me the message:

“Object not found!

The requested URL was not found on this server. The link on the referring page seems to be wrong or outdated. Please inform the author of that page about the error.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

Error 404″

I have tried deactivating and uninstalling bbpress but non of my links work any more.

Can anyone please help a newbie??

Thanks,

[LabSecrets]

Try adding this to the end of your style.css or child theme custom css stylesheet:

body.bbPress .hentry {width:575px!important;}

td.bbp-reply-content {width:575px!important;}

Cheers!

Thanks John. Is there anything I can do to help? My site build out has been on hold pending a fix for the slowness issue. If you have a preferred way of fixing it, perhaps I can help implement it.

Here were my original findings: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-202-sql_calc_found_rows-and-16mm-posts-painfully-slow

Edit: I’ve created a trac ticket for this: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1885

[LabSecrets]

ok,

well, that confirms my suspicion. The myriad theme and child, unfortunately, have all the bbPress files coded-into them… ;-(

You will need to contact that theme author to ask them to include a unique body class in the “mysite_head” function so that you can target your CSS and style the pages accordingly.

Alternatively, you can ask them to include an update to all the various bbPress template pages that have the appropriate wrapper around the bbPress content areas so that it can be styled as such.

Last choice, you are welcome to choose from over 120+ woothemes, elegant themes, or Responsive by ThemeID, that are all ready to use with bbPress.

Wish I could be more helpful, but this is one for your theme author… unless you can accept some global styling as suggested in my earlier answer

[LabSecrets]

It is BuddyPress. Please complete the setup process (probably there is a yellow warning on top of admin are) for BuddyPress…then follow steps in this video to remove and delete from trash, any pages using “forums” slug

I was able to figure out my problem, but not I have Another Problem.

Thanks!

The URLs do follow the same structure as WordPress, exactly actually.

Keep in mind that WordPress has never needed to have a mixed post-type URL structure, except for the case of attachments (which don’t really count.)

None of the words in the URL are ‘useless’ since they’re all indicative of where the content lives.

bbPress and WordPress are designed to allow those with specific needs and wants to customize the codebase, and contribute the changes they needed up-stream to the parent project. If this is something multiple people would like, I suggest you group up and build it. If it works, and more people want it, we absorb it into bbPress core.

Boom.

[John James Jacoby]

It doesn’t directly. I’m working on ways of addressing this for a quick 2.2 release.

[Jim R]

At this point, I”m more interested in the layout and if I need to port functions over from the stand alone bbPress than CSS. The CSS I can handle, just didn’t want to have to do it all.

[Lynq]

Are your topics and replies mixed into your wordpress posts?

What version of bbPress are you using?

[Lynq]

This could be of help: https://codex.bbpress.org/home/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/

[Aadhaar Card]

I think you need to play with CSS to resolve your problem.

[Jim R]

It would be super if there was a way to have layout options.

How tough would it be to port over the layout? Is the code similar enough in terms of functions?

[tungdo]

I tried testing the single-forum-edit.php template, but couldn’t find where to. I have two separate installs, one with bbPress alone and the other with BuddyPress + group forums + site-wide forum.

For the separate bbPress install, /edit returns 404. If BuddyPress uses single-forum-edit.php, where is the edit link supposed to be?

[Pixeldrum]

Now I am getting confused. I could have sworn that I replied to your post John a few days ago… but I don’t see it.

Here it is again then, my apologies, I didn’t mean to transgress a forum convention. Still, if at all possible, I’d like some direction as to how I can block access via direct URL to user profiles. From user profiles someone can track back to posts attributed to the user and use and post via that ‘back door’.

I have bbpress installed and protected (I thought) behind the membership wpmudev.org membership plugin and want the forum area available for specific members only including the profile information. What files need to be customized to make this possible?

I can block posts and content in pages with short-codes from the membership plugin, but I don’t know where I would place those within the structure of bbpress. Is there a way, please? I am not a coder, but have friends who are I just need to be pointed to the files that are involved in getting this done. Thanks for ANY help with this matter.

Hi I am new to bbPress, I installed it last week, it was working fine.

But it is not working recently, I don’t even know since when, may be after I updated the bbPress Plugin to 2.0.3

All I want is just putting the [bbp-forum-index] in a WordPress page, so it can show all forum, topic and replies.

Now once I click to the forum that I have been set up, it don’t show any topic or replies.

Please see the page as below:

Hello,

This is my first time working with wordpress and bbpress so I am quite confused.

I understand that bbpress requires some tweaking in order for it to work with custom themes, but I really don’t know where to start. I’d be very grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction.

The website I’m working on is lightshow.me. I’d strongly prefer to stick with the current theme.

My goals for the website are simple:

-A video blog

-A clean forum where users can post and embed videos

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks
