If I add support for bbPress in my own theming (by adding the provided files into my own theme) the logout fails to work. Whenever I press logout, the screen just goes blank.
I checked the hyperlink in the logout link, and it is exactly the same as in the theme without the bbPress support. However the difference is that in the theme without the bbPress support it just works.
I would like to disable ahref tags in the forum posts so users cannot add links to external websites within a post. In addition to that, I would also like to stop the automatic phrasing of links. For instance, if someone enters ‘http://www.bbpress.org’ I would like it to appear as plain text instead of a clickable link.
I made a plugin as mentioned by ‘jonich0n’ in the following post but it is not working:
How can I disable HTML in posts?
I uploaded this plugin in my wordpress plugins folder and then activated it from the wordpress ‘installed plugins’ page. Is there where it is supposed to be uploaded?
@jjj
I didn’t understand from your reply do you want to add hooks that’ll purge cache made by caching plugins inside a core?
Problem with page cache and bbPress (outside relative times) is that when something new is posted, parent post type(s) isn’t cleared (for example, when you post a reply, topic’s and forum’s pages aren’t refreshed until cache expires).
Since this topic tops Google SERP, just to note that for bbPress 2.0 (ie. bbPress as a WordPress plugin), there is a plugin bbPress Digest that does something similar as requested in first post.
Hi,
See the following forum topic for details of the issue and the fix:
[help] Link Log out error after bbPress installed
Jon
I found this is a known issue logged in Ticket #1645.
The fix is to edit the following file:
bbp-includes/bbp-common-functions.php
Line 1074 should be changed from:
$redirect_to = home_url( isset( $_SERVER ) ? $_SERVER : ” );
To:
$redirect_to = ( is_ssl() ? ‘https://’ : ‘http://’ ) . $_SERVER . $_SERVER;
That fix worked for me.
Hopefully this will be included in the official release soon.

Hi,
This issue is also reported in:
Logout error when bbPress plugin is active
The fix in that topic didn’t work for me and bbPress consistently causes an additional directory name to be included in the logout URL.
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks,
Jon
Hey again,
I’m not sure if my problem relates to my previous problem: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/main-forum-not-listing-sub-forums-just-text-w-no-links
(I haven’t been able to figure out the previous problem. Have contacted RocketTheme to help me out with it; still waiting on a reply)
When I make a post it saves and the topic can be viewed in the forum listings. But when you click the link, it takes you to the correct post url but there is no content to the post. No text from the poster at all. All that is seen is the reply box and the notices saying what permissions you have.
You can reply but the reply isn’t shown.
In the bbPress panel in the Dashboard, I can view the posts and replies perfectly as well as edit them.
Has this problem ever come up before? Is it related to my previous problem in the link above?
I was having the same prob Tuomas, but then realised I needed to insert a link to the stylesheet within my header template.
Putting <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/css/bbpress.css"> directly AFTER the <?php wp_head(); ?> tag allows you to override the styles provided by the stylesheet in the plugin folder.
Hope that helps

I ended up overwriting my installed bbpress files with new ones via FTP. JJJ says you should delete all bbpress files and then write the new ones there.
@OC2PS
I was testing and got the same error message using the standard upload (didn’t use the plugin you have listed) but after I clicked on Installed Plugins and went back to try it again, it went through fine. At that point, I see two bbpress installs listed with the 2.0.2 version active and 3786 inactive.
Very strange.

There are no conflicts.
Also went to WP Admin > Settings > Permalinks and hit Save.
For some strange reason only subforums are behaving badly.
www.domain.com/forum/f/forum-name/subforum-name returns 404.
I tried monkeyman’s rewrite analyzer and have been told that the rewrite rule is working; something else is in the way.
I tried putting print(debug_backtrace()); after function set_404() { in wp-includes/query.php but did not get any intelligible debug information…all that happens is: a single word Array gets prefixed to the top of the 404 page.
I have also discovered that in the database, in the table wp_posts the value stored in column guid for these subforums is http://www.domain.com/forum/f/subforum-name i.e. without the parent forum’s slug.
If I try to visit www.domain.com/forum/f/subforum-name then I do get to the subforum page. Funnily enough, the breadcrumbs on that page depict the correct path including the parent forum.
Curiously, when I create a new subforum, the guid field for it is www.domain.com/?post_type=forum&#XXX;p=YYYY If I try to follow that URL, I end up at forums base.
I should point out that this messed up parent-child relationship is only occuring for bbPress…I have many hierarchical pages in WP, and they all seem fine.
What exactly are you look to do? Stars to rank members?
I’m testing with the following:
wordpress3.3.1, buddypress1.5.4, bbpress2.1r3786
After activating buddypress and then going all the way up to the forum part, what exactly is the step to get it configured? I do not want to use Group Forums. I click on Install Site Wide Forums it tells me it is installed.
This was a problem before the 2.1 beta so …
What is being done in the 2.1 beta that addresses this?
How should users configure it via upload if they are not using plugin search?
I installed bbPress 2.0.2 on my WordPress 3.3.1 site and I can’t get the shortcodes to work. If I add a shortcode to any of the forums it just shows the [shortcode].
http://www.rmminc.org/forums is blank the forums I created don’t show up on the page.
Below are two forums I setup

Hello everyone , I’m searching a plugin for bbpress for star ranking.
thanks.
What file in bbpress needs to be edited to change the size of the Category topic font size? The way it is now, on my site, the Category font size is a bit smaller than the topic title.
Quoting is something we have on our radar for core. Hopefully for 2.2.
As far as the existing posts parsing the html in the editor, I ran into that problem myself today. We’ll look into that.
For reference, here’s is how I was able to replicate this:
Use a link in the editor when making a post, eg:
<a href="http://bbpress.org">bbPress</a>
Everything seems fine. Until you go back and edit the post and then are presented with
http://www.jaredatchison.org/files/Screen%20Shot%202012-03-02%20at%205.49.44%20PM-OTIItv7mSR.png
Woot! Found it. I literally opened every .css file on my site (252 files) and searched. Turns out, the Gantry Framework css/wordpress.css file had the following code in it:
/* Other */
.rt-wordpress tr.even td {padding: 5px;background: #666666;border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd;}
.rt-wordpress tr.odd td {padding: 5px;background: #333333;border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd;}
That was overwriting the code in the bbpress.css file.
Mark this one as closed.
Users form my forums are requesting this too.
Hey, I just started using bbpress and I love it! I came across this however and would like to change it. When i started my forum structure i made a category then some subforums. But beside the subforums it says (0,0) or however many topics/replies there are in the forums and i would like to make that information go away…at least in the main forum structure.
I’m I really can’t say because I use SVN to sync up with the latest version. Maybe jjj will have some input.
