If you have wp-lang set in wp-config that should be enough
Thanks OC2PS, but I already did what it says there and is not working, because I don’t have a bb-config.php file to identify the language that I want in my forum.
Hi there,
i just installed the newest version of the bbpress plugin and I want to have the spanish translation activated. I already uploaded the .mo and .po files but now I don’t find the bb-config.php file anywhere to change the language to es_ES.
Where can I activate the spanish version then?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you so much for the fast reply, JJJ.
It works perfectly fine now!! Many thanks!
oh well still what exactly does that mean?
basically I right clicked the folder titled “bbpress” which I emptied before hand, then i click on checkout and added that url, and then it filled the folder with all the files and it works perfectly but no sub-forum related styles?
me = confused
Deactivate and reactivate bbPress. Sounds like the plugin you used to ‘reset the caps’ nuked out any custom caps and isn’t playing nicely with replacing them.
FYI, all the post and reply button in bbpress have all disappeared even to the admins..
I’ve removed User Role Editor plugin and installed Members plugin to fix the admin capabilities.. and it seems I can see all the admin capabilities are currently activated..

So, currently the forum is actually daed for over a day. Can anyone help me out with this problem?
I’m leaving this topic due to a capability problem occurred in my site.
I’m running wp 3.2.1, bbpress 2.0, and user role editor plugin 3.2.1 in my site.
I accidently clicked reset button in user role editor plugin settings, and it seems the writing topics and replies capability in bbpress forum have blocked even to the admin group. WP side is working perfectly fine as it was a day ago.
it seems something has changed in usermeta db but cannot figure out what is exactly needed to fix the problem.
Is there any way to solve this problem fixing usermeta db? or any alternative way to fix the error would be greatly appreciated.
It’s complicated now, they way you have to use the plugins to tweak user permissions. I’ve never had good luck with that, so I can’t really be much help.
Hopefully in a future version this can be handled in bbPress itself, via #1805.
Not sure what version of bbPress you are on, but if some change you are trying out 2.1 I’d recommend looking at https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-custom-css-file/
Yes, that’s all about to be out-of-date when 2.1 is finalized, see https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-21-theme-compatibility
I’ve found a plugin where you can do this, it works perfect. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-avatar/
Just upload profile pics via users menu.
I wanted to allow the member to do it via my webpage rather than having access to wordpress. i.e. via profile edit in BBPress.
I have found a temp solution that works for me, however I’am using eMember plugin that is integrated with Gravatar. http://en.gravatar.com/
I will do that. I’ve also been looking for a way to upload avatars through the WordPress front-end, regardless of whether bbPress is installed or not, as that will also accomplish what I think both of us are trying to accomplish. Thanks.
Just to add to my previous post, I have created my own theme for WordPress. The forum works on it fine, it would just be nice to have the option for members to upload their own profile pictures.
Maybe this is something the BBPress team can add on their next update as I’m sure many people would like this option?
Hi MTPrower, I’m going to carry on looking for a solution, hopefully someone can help on here, but I’ll keep you updated with my progress. Could you let me know if you find a solution as well?
Many thanks
Just having started looking at all the how-to’s on dealing with modifying bbpress’ look and feel, I’m really questioning that YouTube link’s method.
He copied a bunch of files into the existing theme’s folder rather than making a child theme folder. After that, he copied a ton of code from one functions.php to WP’s function.php…
Sorry, but that just looks really rickety of a setup if you ask me, and I barely know anything about this yet.
Where is bbPress’s style sheet?
Simple question, yes, but after having looked through all the child theme stuff, I’m expecting a very complex answer.
I’m simply trying to change the size and shape of the login widget’s text fields. It’s not fitting in my theme’s sidebar. (The theme that I use is Dandelion v268.) This has turned into a long-winded goosechase of installing and uninstalling theme files, templates, changing obscure comment fields, etc. I simply want the style sheet and change bbp-username’s style. That’s all. Help? 
I have WordPress with bbPress 2.0 installed as a plugin. I’m looking for some basic functionality:
1. The ability to upload an avatar from the front-end, so the WordPress back-end can remain hidden
2. Topic and forums icons that can change depending on whether the user has read the topic(s) yet
3. Signature and custom bbcode support.
I can’t seem to be able to add any real functionality to bbPress simply because bbPress isn’t the stand-alone version. There is no page to activate bbPress plugins that I downloaded, so what do I do? Without plugins, bbPress is nearly useles…
Hi everyone,
I have recently installed BBPress plugin on my website, which I use with WordPress.
I’ve been searching for a solution to allow my members to be able to upload their own avatars via the user edit section on BBPress.
At the moment the defualt WordPress avatar is used which looks rather boring. I have found two plugins that have been built for this purpose however I can’t seem to get either to work.
These are http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/ and http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bavatars/
avatar-upload plugin requires a number of changes and even when I follow these steps I can’t get it to work. Bavatars doesn’t work either when I follow the WP option.
Does anyone know of a simple solution?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
I’m using the bbPress Forum list widget and [bbp-forum-index] Shortcode.
I’ve changed these lines to list by title:
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-forum-template.php
Line #88
‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order’,
changed for:
‘orderby’ => ‘title’,
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-core-widgets.php
Line #387
‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order’,
changed for:
‘orderby’ => ‘title’,
https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Order_.26_Orderby_Parameters
here is the complete error:
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/content/07/9148507/html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-common-template.php on line 123
Right now it’s not something that is easily done out of the box. It can definitely be done, but needs some plugins to accomplish.
It’s definitely on our radar though. See https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1805
That is a separate issue I believe (I may be wrong). I just moved the content from another server.
The BBPress install is brand new.
