I strongly suspect it is theme related or maybe other plugin.
In either case, it is not directly bbpress, so yes, I’d hide it with css
I have two websites running custom php to create Log In/Log Out entries on the menu.
The Log Out behavior is different on the two websites. I finally tracked down the problem to bbPress. The URL created by my custom code with w_logout_url() on the bbPress site includes:
&redirect_to=…
where the URL created by the site without bbPress installed does not.
Disabling bbPpress removes the &redirect_to=… and reenabling bbPress makes the redirect_to return.
That leads me to believe bbPress is changing /setting this value somewhere, but I don’t see any choice to change that value in the bbPress settings?
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'ccc_add_loginout_link', 10, 2 );
function ccc_add_loginout_link( $items, $args ) {
if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'header-menu') {
$items .= '<li><a href="'. wp_logout_url() .'">Log Out</a></li>';
}
elseif (!is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'header-menu') {
$items .= '<li><a href="'. site_url('wpflogin') .'">Log In</a></li>';
}
return $items;
}
Thanks!!
can you list your plugins please- the original error
Line 1: <div class="error"> <p>This Plugin needs BBpress to work, pls. install it first and activate.</p></div>
is not from bbpress
Yes I get that, and I see my settings are configured to automatically now give this status to new additions, and supposedly the ability to post, but ‘half’ of those that already have the status cannot.
It’s a real shame that there are no codes written into the error messages.
I guess my two questions are (in the context of my above post)
- When did all my historically inactive users get all their statuses changed to participants, it could only be with a recent BBpress plugin update?
- Is there another encoded condition that has to be satisfied aside from “if user = Participant then validate post or reply?”.
I know an invalid or heavy file may stop posting, but I have increased the values of the attachments so this is out. Failed posters have however not always been uploading anything more than their text.
Anyway I should stop speculating and see when the successful and failed posters were entered into the system.
presuming in
dashboard>settings>forums you have Roles set to participant, then users will get the participant role upon their next login or if ‘remember me’ set tehir next remembered visit to the website (the website, not just forums) after you installed bbpress.
Hello I have been looking at this for a number of days.
I reactivated plugins one by one and then a couple of people successfully posted, then two or three more couldn’t post then one did.
My bizarre theory is that it has something to do with a bbpress update quite a while ago. I already had Buddypress for two or three years with every member of my community manually given a basic S1 level when I created their account (so additional info was password-protected). When I added the recommended bbPress to develop a forum, I noted that only a number of my more active members got the status “Participants”, the numbers seem to reflect a few active users out of my total pool of users. It wasn’t automatic that everyone was assigned the Participant status, especially if they had never logged in. I assumed that it came from them reading forum/bbPress generated pages.
Since the beginning of the year, this has changed; everybody but the three Admins have been marked as a participants – 30% of these have never even logged in to my Buddypress environment, have never even reacted to the initial password email. The term ‘participant’ in a sense has become meaningless to me as an admin, because it tells me nothing any more.
I have to investigate there’s an ‘arrival date’ relationship with those who have posted and those who can’t.
<!-- nextpage-> converts to paginated links when using wp_link_pages() WordPress function for pages, posts, etc content, some themes add it some may not. As stated on WordPress wp_link_pages() must be in a loop/used for post content output.
I don’t think(maybe wrong) that it would be a good idea to use it in topics and replies for bbpress since bbpress has it’s own pagination functionality.
Thought I’d mention it. 🙂
as far as I know this still works
bbPress – Moderation Tools
Hi everyone, I have 2 questions:
1 My website has the language Dutch, but the bbPress plugin I installed still shows everything in English, while the bbPress.org website states that this plugin automatically changes the language … That doesn’t happen, what am I doing wrong?
2 both guests and users can post to the forum, but these posts will be immediately visible without being approved for publication.
How can I set this up?
Thanks in advance
hmm..not come across this before, from googling seems to be a wrodpress.com thing – doesn’t mean that I’m right – there’s tons on the internet that I don’t know, but just tried <!-- nextpage-> on posts in a couple of test sites, and it does nothing.
Can only suggest you find out what is adding it, but you may need to accept that it doesn’t work in bbpress
I tried to fix some typos, but it seems that it was interpreted as breach. Let me try anew.
Steps to reproduce.
1. Have the lorem ipsum text with <!--nextpage-->
>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
<!–nextpage–>

Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

2. If I create a page in my site with that text (and only that text), I see the first part and the navigation to the second part as my theme defines. The navigation works i.e. by clicking I can go to the second part.
3. If I create a topic in my bbPress forum with that text (and only that text), I see the first part and the navigation to the second part as my theme defines. However the navigation does not work, i.e. by clicking I get the “too many redirects” error.
I think this is a long standing bug in bbpress. are you suing threaded replies (just asking, not suggesting!)
for moderation This one still works as far as I know and would let you moderate guest posts
bbPress – Moderation Tools
as for registration, bbpress just uses WordPress registration, so a plugin that does that would be fine. You don’t state what plugins you have tried, and why they didn’t work – if you find one that is close, come back.
Hello!
I don’t know whether my site has had this from the beginning or not, since I haven’t used <!-- nextpage-> before, but…
Paging works on normal pages (post_type=page), but on forums paging causes the “too many redirects” error (even with a post with just text, no links, no images).
My site has a DV certificate from the web host provider (they took care of everything), Settings → General has the same https address for WP and the site.
WP 5.4 and bbPress 2.6.4
I am trying to achieve the following:
Allow users to post as guests but those would always go to moderation first. Registered users can post normally.
Allow users to register to my forum through some social plugin so they don’t need to register yet to another website. I just haven’t found a suitable social plugin that would help with this.
Point with all this is to lower the bar for people to start using the forum.
Any help would he highly appreciated.
I am running WordPress version 5.4 and bbPress version is 2.6.4. Website is in coming soon mode so I can’t provide a link to it.
thank you for such a quick reply, appreciate the great support! In the meantime we found a conflict between forums page and forums prefix in settings of bbpress. solved now, all good

Hello,
after about 3 years of using bbPress without any issues, we have an issue with the index page – the standard one that is specified in settings -> forum is not working. There is just the header and the footer displayed from the theme, no content at all.
When I create a new page using the shortcode [bbp-forum-index], it is working fine. And all the threads and posts as well, they work fine on the original URLs. So it is really just the index page.
I haven’t done any changes in the forum in the last year or even more.
It is password protected, happy to share the password via a direct message.
Thanks,
Jan
Hi,
I have a notice of undefined index too after being imported some demo-data and deleted most of them. I tried to switch to 2017 theme and reactive the theme but it does not work.
Here the notice :
Notice: Undefined index: reply_count in /var/www/html/xxxx/wp-content/themes/cera/bbpress/content-statistics.php on line 70
Thanks for your help
looks like a genesis theme
try adding
bbPress Genesis Extend
that should fix it
come back if not
Hi, if someone could assist I would appreciate it.
I have a new bbPress install here: https://classthink.com/forums/forum/microsoft/
I’ve created a new page with the [bbp-forum-index] shortcode here: https://classthink.com/forums/
But when I visit https://classthink.com/forums/ all I get is the Forums Archive.
It’s my — possibly incorrect — understanding that if you create a page with the same address as the forum slug, it should redirect to the page (in this case the forum index) rather than the archive.
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Hello all,
I have been running BBpress for more than three of years, but started getting feedback that ‘Participants’ could no longer post or reply a month ago.
The user error message gives me no clue as to what’s behind the issue ‘ERROR your reply/post cannot be created’, and there’s nothing in the settings that gives a clue either.
I paid up to get ‘Pro tools’ to contribute something financially to the developer pot, but found no new clues in the tools either.
So this morning I thought I would chance a deactivation of the plugin and reinstall.
The moment I pressed deactivate, I got the message in the title of the post. My entire site is out of action – nothing public except the error message in the title. I can’t access the wp-admin only the FTP, but what to do? My site is out completely.
I believe I am up to date on all WP software (as flagged by the WP admin zone)… and anyway, I cannot offer any other info now.
The source code behind the message says:
Line 1: <div class="error"> <p>This Plugin needs BBpress to work, pls. install it first and activate.</p></div>
Please help. It’s my busy time of the year.

I’d like to change the bbpress word “Forums” to “Support Forums”.
Is this an easily replaceable word?
Thanks I will bear your link in mind as I do have some WordPress projects on the go and could do with help at times for reasonable cost or maybe there are things I can help with (decent copywriter and editor!)
Amazing how one bad advice can change everything – based on this $2500 quote I’ve decided to ditch wordpress/bbpress for the project and go for one click install of Vanilla and save myself $2500 to setup a forum lol.
