I don’t know there is one out there (yet) that is specifically written for bbPress.
I assume you need this because you are allowing Guest posting?
In bbP 2.1 spam detection with Akismet is improved so hopefully you might not even need it (unless you are worried about members posting in-appropriate material).
If you are 2.1 (which from my testing is stable and full of awesomeness) you can place the bbPress template files in your theme and bbP will use those instead of the pre-packaged ones.

Hello I am new to BBPress and I have installed it successfully. I have been trying to edit the missing image tag that you see when you view the forum index at the following url.
I’m not sure where to find the code to remove it.

Yep. I found wp-reportpost ( https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-reportpost/ )
Looks pretty good. Just looking for other ideas/recommendations or if there is anything out there specifically for bbpress.
Ok, guess that was the issue. I added a new forum which is public and can view the one post there. So i guess for some reason you can’t switch back between public, and private or public-hidden or any variation of the three.
My other question John is this..and not sure if you can help, but would appreciate if you have any idea.
With my member plugin-DAP-we attempted to put the following at the head of the bbpress.php file in order to block the forum from any non-members.
< ?php
include_once “/dap/dap-config.php”;
if( !Dap_Session::isLoggedIn() ) {
header(“Location: /dap/login.php”);
exit;
}
?>
The only issue is that it blocked the entire site and not just bbpress. IF you have a suggestion and its ok if you don’t, would love to hear any recommendation.
Thank you!
If you create a new, public, forum does it do this for it as well?
Create a ‘Homepage’ page. Use one of the bbPress shortcodes on that page. Now go into Settings->Reading and set the homepage to a static page (in this case, the ‘Homepage’ you just created).
Did you search on the WordPress.org plugin repo?
Forum is public now. I did change it to private and hidden a few weeks back just to see if it somehow corrected my problem.
I understand. Sorry if i sounded irate-just a bit frustrated- and I guess i didn’t understand the whole volunteer aspect. I do apologize. Trust me i like the product- and I do want it to work!
¡Gracias! la información fue utilísima para mí. Efectivamente, deberían incluirla en la documentación de BbPress.
Saludos desde Paraguay.
Is the forum that topic in public, private, or hidden? Was it every private or hidden at any point, and is now public?
P.S. – Sorry you feel the support here is poor. Keep in mind we’re all volunteers for the project, and all of your previous posts are in conjunction to using bbPress with other specific plugins. That narrows the scope of available people with enough experience to help you.
Finally!
Found the solution, at least it works, however maybe there’s a better way of doing it.
Anyway, increasing the memory limit to 64 resolved all of my issues. “Thank you G”!

Hi!
This is driving me nuts! It should be so simple but I cant get it to work.
Running latest versions of WP and the bbPress plugin, installed within WP.
Then I download the language file (sv_SE, swedish) and pretty much everything in the backend stops working.
Depending on what other plugins I have active at the same time different parts stop working.
I’ve tried to put the file in the location you described and the bbpress/bbp-language folder as well.
Please help me!
I have just seen that the problem is only with Firefox and not IE. I think that is a problem of cell size interpretation in CSS style: bbp-entry-content and bbp-entry-header. I have not found solution.
If you have been using BuddyPress with bbPress 2.0 installed, it should work fine if you merely deactivate BuddyPress. The bbPress functionality should continue to operate.
Please advise if you find that this is not the case.
Cheers,
Spence

While developing a site I had then entire wordpress framework in a hidden folder (ie http://mysite.com/wp/index.php)
I have developed many site this way but never with bbPress included. Now when I changed the path of the wordpress directory and move the file the forum is a blank page.
The shortcode is still visible in the post and all permalinks are functioning the same.
Why did this happen?
Oh and permalinks refreshed…nothing.
PS- i can view the forum as an admin, like many others in my shoes have described.
For weeks on end, i’ve tried and tried and tried to get bbpress to correctly integrate with my site..to no avail.
Both due to a combination of bugs with the plugin, and i’m very sorry to say –an extreme lack of support in these forums.
I’m willing if anyone is out there listening (not sure if there is) to pay someone to help me out. I honestly don’t think my problem is a complicated one-in fact i think what i’m trying to do should be pretty standard.
What am i trying to do??? Show my posts. Yep, that’s it. But BBPress won’t do it for me.
Go to my forum: https://www.shortzilla.com/forums/forum/short-ideas/
There is definitely a topic there, and well, it’s not showing.
I am using a member plugin -DAP-but even with it turned off, i’m having the same problem and i’m not protecting any content.
WHAT WHY Is this happening? Where is the bug? I’ve seen many others referencing the same problem. I’ve tried all of the user role plugins. Nothing. Can anyone please help me out…i’ve posted ..i can’t even count how many times, looking for help, and it all falls into a black hole.
Thanks
Same here. I found Buddypress to be “too much” for my users. Would love to hear some advice.
Was anyone able to solve this issue? I am having the same problem.
Newbie here. I’ve searched the forum for the answer and can’t find it, so I am writing here.
I have a simple WP Twentyten site with bbpress for fifteen users. It’s private and password protected to get in. Our small group uses it for private discussions. And, we have only one or two new posts a week.
I’m looking for a plugin that will notify everyone when a new post is made. This could be real time or periodically, i.e. day or week.
Is anything out there that can help?
Thanks,
Bob
Never mind, I had another plugin that wasn’t working properly which caused the rewrite issue.
I am having a problem isolating what users can do on my website. When I restrict user to just the forum, it still allows them access to change things on my website. Is there any way to allow just a bbpress forum log in? Or, what should I change my permissions to under general settings to allow NON admin people to only view/submit/edit/change their posts on the forum and NOT my website….If that makes sense…
