i own platform pro but it and it doesn t work with bbpress 2.0. it used to work with bbpress 1.0, they even relased special plugin for that. After your mod update to 2.0 it stoped. nevermind. if you are interested, i could send you platform pro files, so you could make a fresh install and test how it play together.
Wow, I just about to use bbpress as a private forum based on recommendation of a co-worker and just realize this huge differences along with other avail forum software’s.
And about standalone package idea, I disagree with it since as part the wp plugin is the best reason I going to use it.

Thanks for your help. I gave it an earnest go yesterday and I finally got it to work for me today. I too wanted to get this working as a child theme, but ran into this issue (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-bbpress-error-the-active-theme-is-broken-reverting-to-the-default-theme) since I’m developing this on xampp. I ended up just putting it together, uploading it to the live server, and luckily, it wasn’t too far off.
So you own it, and it works? If so, I fail to understand your position on the matter.
I think you misunderstood me. I have compensate their work by paying for platform pro. So i expect their bbpress plugin should be updated as new version of bbpress has been relased in the meantime as many people still use platform pro and are not willing to upgrade it. Am i wrong? I think you have been also trying to solve this problem on this forum, didn t you?
bbp_check_user_edit() appears to use the following condition:
if ( !is_user_logged_in() || ( is_multisite() && !current_user_can( ‘manage_network_users’ ) && bbp_is_user_home() && !apply_filters( ‘enable_edit_any_user_configuration’, true ) ) || !current_user_can( ‘edit_user’, bbp_get_displayed_user_id() ) ) {
The key portion of that being:
( is_multisite() && !current_user_can( ‘manage_network_users’ ) && bbp_is_user_home() && !apply_filters( ‘enable_edit_any_user_configuration’, true ) )
This appears to be written intending to disable the ability for site admins on a network to edit users. However the code here does not seam to do any tests for what the user id is and who’s currently logged in.
This has the unwanted effect of removing the ability for a normal non-superadmin user to edit their own profile because this code activates when multisite is enabled and doesn’t take the fact they are trying to edit their own profile into account.
@jankowalski – Surely you don’t think being compensated for hard work is wrong?
I have installed the bbpress plugin and would like to remove the topic and reply options from the dashboard so users can’t create topics or make replies from there. Is there a simple way to do this?
Any help would be great,
Thanks in advance.

That’s a pity but this plugin is available only for platform pro 2.0 called now pagelines framework. So, to get this update you have to pay 197$ first and then you will get plugin bbpress for free… Thats how helpful pagelines developers can be.. I ve been asking several times for compatibility solution for bbpress 2.0 but they couldn t help. here you go, if you pay them they know how to fix it!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy TLDR.
But I have to second the standalone package idea. That sounds like it would open up very interesting possibilities.

As per the topic title. Is there an order in which the bbPress plugin chooses which WordPress template file to display the board? Is it index.php first, then maybe page.php?
Is it possible to have a page-forum.php file in my WordPress theme, and have the plugin use that?
Most of my template files have a sidebar, and I’d like to remove that for the forum.
I am using a wordpress with a buddypress, bbpress pluggin, and salutation theme activated. When a user registers and tries to access their personal setting and notification the page cannot be found. http://www.therelieffoundation.com/wordpress/ Anyone having any luck fixing this?

I’m using a membership plugin that have different roles and levels. Upon installing bbPress, would it overwrite my existing user levels and roles or append to it?
Search BBpress plugin is not functioning now, I am using the latest version of 2.1, the error message I get is…
Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::have_posts() in wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-topic-template.php on line 308
Line 308 of bbp-topic-template.php looks like..
function bbp_topics() {
global $bbp;
// Put into variable to check against next
$have_posts = $bbp->topic_query->have_posts();
// Reset the post data when finished
if ( empty( $have_posts ) )
wp_reset_postdata();
return $have_posts;
}
Not sure what the problem is here…
Anything is possible, but it would need to be built; it does not exist in bbPress currently.
Great..! its working fine! Too simple for you but it was a mistery for me.! Thank you again!
Is it possible in the bbpress forum plug in 2.0.2 to assign moderators to a specific forum? Also its it possible to have moderators be alerted when new users sign up or post to a forum?
I have one portal with 6 subdomains. All in wordpress multisite network. I have also install buddypress and bbpress all in the newest versions.
I want to have only one forum on main site where i will have forums for subdomains blogs. These forums i can create manualy.
The issue is.
How can i get the latest topics from each forum from main site on subdomain blog ?
Do I need to get it from databese or how ?
Please help me
Any replies from the mods or plugin creators?
Seems only spammers are responding 
Looks like this thread and plugin has been abandoned 
I had high hopes for this plugin and forum but looks like I’ll have to look elsewhere. I’ve wasted enough time and effort on this!
That’s what I figured. Thanks again.
Your spam situation should be fixed, too.
Hey JJJ, glad you like the video. Feel free to include it in the codex.
1. I’ll look at making a child theme “friendly” version of this video. I agree, it’s important for end users to know how to implement this. I was mostly providing this for developers who are creating premium themes & wanting to bundle bbPress.
2. Good point. I totally forgot about “bbpress.php”. I’ll look into it.
That’s awesome Chris! Great work! Mind if I link this video in a page in the Codex?
When it comes time to put together round 2 of this video, I have a few suggestions on things I’d like to see included.
1. Instead of dropping the files into the active theme, can you walk through quickly making a child theme? I bet many users are not able to hack away at the core files of their themes because they’ve purchased them just don’t have control over that code.
2. Have you looked into dropping a ‘bbpress,php’ file into the root of the existing theme? You get less control over the actual template code, but it speeds up the process of getting the sidebar placement working in forums, topics, and the various other edit screens.
3. Good tip on loading the JS in the footer. Probably a core patch there so no one has to do that later. 
That’s my only real suggestions. The video is great and does a good job at showing how easy it is to do with a little bit of investigation into the code.
I have a problem with translating an English phrase to Japanese because the variables are already containing the words behind the number.
For example, there is a phrase called, “This forum contains %1$s and %2$s, and was last updated by %3$s %4$s ago.” in BBPress. In the po file, I have translated to a phrase, “この掲示板は%1$s, %2$sが投稿されています。最終アップデートは%4$s前の%3$sさんによる投稿です。”
The translation for this shows as “この掲示板は19 topics, 136 repliesが投稿されています。最終アップデートは27日前の ABCさんによる投稿です。” in the frontend website. This is not good because the term “topics” and “replies” are built into to %1$s and %2$s, Same thing happens for below phrases.
A. This topic has %1$s, contains %2$s, and was last updated by %3$s %4$s ago.
B. This category contains %1$s and %2$s, and was last updated by %3$s %4$s ago.
Can you advise how to make it so that phrase work as “This forum contains %1$s topics and %2$s replies, and was last updated by %3$s %4$s ago.” so that I can convert the terms “topics” and “replies” to Japanese as well?
