ok, in which case…
it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.
Plugins
If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

thanks, but of you only protect at ‘page’ level, then all topics and replies are freely visible to users – they are only hidden by people not knowing a topic title.
bbpress itself has forums visible to all (public forums), and/or visible only to logged in (private forums) it does not have a concept of page protection for someone not logged in.
Hence the widgets do not have any protection.
Hello,
I run the website for my local beekeeping branch, sbka.org.uk
We have a couple of forums that, as they are for members only, are on password-protected pages. Members can see what’s in the forums by using the ‘members area’ password but need to log in to post new topics or replies.
I want to display the most recent posts in the sidebar using the bbPress Recent Topics widget. However when I implement the widget anyone can click on the link and go straight to the forum by-passing the password.
Is there any way to stop the widget by-passing the password protection on the Forum page?
Hi,
I’ve installed bbPress, however the FORUM in the Dashboard does not show up.
Hope you can help.
ok, I think that is buddypress not bbpress.
try
https://buddypress.org/support/
I have it only on Local Host, any site I create with BudduPress + BBpress always appears this Activies Group, in the Home tab
Thanks, but I Just found #16 here:
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
With this in place I can just add the backlink in the forums description then. I need to hide the breadcrumb then via CSS on the forum page and also in the page I used the forum shortcode.
Maybe in future we can build a better solution for this matter. But also my use case might be kinda special.
I think the answer is #16 in this article:
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
So thank you! 🙂
I just noticed there is an issue with the < vs. gt;
it needs to be < in the code.
sorry, but you are assuming that your site is exactly the same as everyone else’s.
I have no idea how you are creating these menu items, and suspect is a wordpress not bbpress question.
If you would care to give a link to your site rather than images I might be able to hep further.
At the moment all you are doing is showing me pictures of your car and asking how to mend the engine 🙂
The quickest way will be to turn on debugging in wordpress and come back with tne exact error you are getting

If you can’t do that, then it could be a theme or plugin issue

Bonjour à tous, je cherche à modifier la taille de la police pour l’entièreté de forum ! j’ai essayé divers id et classes grâce à l’inspecteur d’éléments, mais rien de vraiment concluant. pourquoi BBpress n’offre pas d’options CSS par défaut? couleurs, font, etc..
the templates you need are in
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/
to amend a template do the following which is an example with loop-sungle-reply
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
transfer this to your pc and edit to how you want it to look
and save
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
This is probably because in the bbpress plugin there is a template called content-search.php. Many themes also now have a template file called content-search.php. Since the bbPress templates don’t necessarily need to be in a bbPress folder, the bbPress plugin is choosing the template from your theme before the template that is actually in bbPress.
To fix copy content-search.php from the bbPress plugin templates and place it in a child theme in a folder called bbpress.
Functions files and child themes – explained !
So create a directory on your child theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-search.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/content-search.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
bbpress sends from the address to this address with BCC to each subscriber.
This works for some sites, not for others.
This plugin whilst old, still works well
AsynCRONous bbPress Subscriptions
Hello,
I’m having an issue with bbpress sending out notification messages to forum subscribers. When there’s a new post or reply, the subscribers are not getting notifications because the server sends out messages to this address:
Receiver:
noreply@appserver-e8527d8c-nginx-404b6c7fa4aa4da9a6e567464eab2d7c
Header:
X-bbPress: 2.6.6,
\nFrom: my site
<noreply@appserver-e8527d8c-nginx-404b6c7fa4aa4da9a6e567464eab2d7c>,
\nBcc: myemail@domain.com
–
In fact if you notice from the above, the To and From addresses are the same weird address. Where does this come from? All other none-forum related messages sent from the server to the correct recipient addresses – just forum related messages somehow got messed up.
I’m using WP 5.7, bbpress 2.6.6, and Easy WP SMTP.
Thank you.
Do we have this functionality now in bbPress? The plugins related to it are not maintained.
thanks
Backend = anything where you are in the dashboard
Frontend – everything else !
So what you describe is not normal behaviour.
I’d suggest 2 things.
1. You have another plugin that is affecting how bbpress does topic edits
2. The topic in question has content that violates your moderation rules – most commonly a number of links, but might be words.
so in
dashboard>settings>discussion you will have rules on how many links and what wrods are blacklisted on your site. If on a topic edit these rules get broken, then the topic will go into moderation.
If this is not obvious from the topic that you are editing that is going into pending, then you could try posting a simple topic with just a few words, and then edit this to see if it suffers from the issue.
if it does, then item 1 above might apply.
I’ve completed editing a topic and it doesn’t show in the list of topics, so I go to the WP Dashboard and find the topic in Topics list and it says “Pending” so I open it and hit Update. Then I go to the topic and find this error message “Rober Hatcher is still editing this topic – Leave Stay” I hit Stay and it works but I have no idea what’s happening.
Can anyone help?
TIA
Bob
it will either be subscriptions or the notify plugin (or another bbpress related plugin!)
yes these are the 3 bbpress post types, and they are the only post types.
@robin-w
Thanks for your reply. I have also checked the wp_posts table.
SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type = "forum" OR post_type = "topic" OR post_type = "reply"
I can see some posts with the following post types:
Are these post types part of bbPress? Are there any additional post types added by bbPress?
I switched the theme to twentytwenty and then I used the Troubleshooting feature in the Health Check plugin.
To check if it was fixed, I looked in Settings to see if Forum was added as an option, and it wasn’t, even when all the plugins were disabled, and using another theme.
I had already asked a tech guy to check on the possibility of a plugin conflict and he said it wasn’t, by the way.
I wonder if reinstalling BBPress will help me? I expect that will erase all posts but switching to another forum would do that anyway.
