It works! Thanks!
Hopely bbPress Offcial Can be Native Support Block Theme.
Hi
I run different forums in my website. Each forum is related to a specific course I provide.
As the one who answers all questions sent by each forum, I have the issue that when I receive an inquiry, many times I do not know to which forum the question belongs. Today, to find out, I have to go to my wordpress backend, go to bbpress, and look in the topic section to which forum it belongs.
So ideally, it would be great if in the subject notification email, I can see to which forum is related.
So if today I receive a subject notification email like the following:
Clarification about XXXX
I would like to receive
[Forum XXXX] Clarification about XXXX
Thanks
that seems to be an issue with ultimate member permissions, bbpress does not have that granularity in it. suggest you raise with ultimate member
Ok, so because we’ve not been able to replicate the issue with test accounts et al. We think that if we delete the end user’s account and then remake the account this will rectify the issue. As we’re aware that the user may already have content that they’ve created under their account we want to migrate that to a dummy account while we’re putting in place the deletion so we can then migrate it back to their “new” account and thus cause little to no disruption for them. We just wanted to check that if bbpress content is in this equation, that this content type does also get re-allocated like any other WP content types.
unfortunately that is another post where someone says ‘fixed it’ but does not share the fix.
if you are not using buddypress, where the user says the problem was, then this would not apply to you
If you are using buddypress, then it would be worth posting in the buddypress support forum
But in any case that was 10 years ago, and against a very old version of both bbpress and buddypress, it is unlikely that the problem is the same.
So we’ve done some digging around on the forum and found an instance where someone had the same issue? https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/participants-cant-create-topicspost-replies/
and they then say: ‘Found it – buddypress was applying a filter, and it does some wonky logic. Overwrote it in my theme.’
Would the you guys know what we could do to force override this to ensure all participants can reply to solve this?
I am building a new community forum per a client’s request and they would like their members to not have the ability to create post / topics but only comment on topics they create. Is this a feature in bbPress or do I need to add additional plugins?
This is one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
install
bbp style pack
once activated, navigate to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.
In that tab, select
Enable Theme Support
and save
The forums should then display
I am using Twenty Twenty-Four Theme, But bbPress Not Support Block Theme, so When Support Block Theme?
you rock, I’ll test it some more as time goes on, unless you think I’m good? Does this BBPress try to login in any other BBPress pages?
I do not want BBPress login anywhere, nowhere at all, because I’m already handling login:
https://veganlinked.com/forums/forum/welcome/ see login at the bottom? That comes from BBPress, that is a BBPress forum. BBPress is a forum that has a login by default. I do not want their login.
ok, so I see a login at the very top left of the homepage, and one in the footer.
so what is the bbpress login you wish to remove
Hello, I’m very excited to use BBPress on my website! My website already has a login form. So, I really need the login form removed from BBPress because for some reason it doesn’t work. After putting in the username and password it redirects to my login page where they have to re-enter the information.
The “Log in” button is “ok” since it directs to the login page. But, I would rather not have that either since I already have login button in my navigation.
I searched a few times on this over the last few days and even asked the plugin developers I’m using if they knew of a way to resolve this. I can’t find anything. I have Code Snippet plugin if someone wants to offer some code for that. Or is there some CSS that would just hide all that and remove the space it occupies?
Website is VeganLinked.com and there’s a link to forums in the very top navigation and footer.
Newest version of WP and BBPress.
locked the forum down to be under Membership Requests only.
is this a plugin/ a theme or what?
bbpress just uses WordPress registration, so anything that does this for WordPress will work.
you could hook to this to send
user_register
but without knowing how they are registering, difficult to help further.
Come back with further details
Hi folks,
I am currently working with a client who has a bbPress forum on their WordPress install. They have locked the forum down to be under Membership Requests only. This works great, however we are wondering if there is any way we can send the “new user” notification email that admins usually get to specific users/moderators/roles of the forum at all?
Kind Regards
Sam
You keep repeating the issue – I fully understand the issue.
1. I am not paid to do any of this – I try and spend around hour a day helping others as people have helped me over the years, but I have a full time job.
2. I have bbpress and 6 other plugins that I try to help.
3. I receive 30-40 emails a day on many things, and I do not keep old emails.
4. If I had access to your site a. I would have deleted any details b. It is not up to me to get you site working, if I ask you for details I do not expect to have to look them up myself.
so if you are running both my plugin and adding snippets you are very unlikely to get to any solution. Consider my plugin to be blue paint, and you snippet to be red paint. If you run both, the room you want to paint might end up red because that is the only color that got painted, or red because it was pained blue first and then painted red. Only by having one bit of code running do you get a true test.
so to fix your site.
1. do not have any other attempts at solutions
2. use the auto login in my style pack
3. tell me if it works in staging – ie it goes to login and then to the topic
4. tell me if it works in live – – ie it goes to login and then to the topic
5. tell me the settings you have in
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>plugin information>subscription emails
copy/paste here or send to me by email
for both live and staging
If you do not understand what this means, the use google to translate or find someone who can understand this.
ok you doing the equivalent of sending me an image of your car engine and expecting me to tell you what the noise it is making is caused by. 🙂 🙂
I would suspect it is theme related, and menus and scroll are theme related.
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.
Plugins
If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users
Health Check & Troubleshooting
Then come back
Hi!
I’m using bbpress for the first time and everything works right, except that in the topic pages there is some error, I can’t scroll down the page. There’s no scroll bar. There’s something wrong with the sticky menu at the top too. I don’t know what the issue could be. I hope you can help me.
This is what it looks like:

Hi!
I have just installed bbPress, configured the settings, and created some categories/forums, but when I go to the link where the forum should have been, I only see a blank page.
I have tested with the shortcode, and added that to a blank page. That works, but links to posts and categories open up as blank pages
yes Robin,that was a mistake. Sorry for this confusion. They both work similar.
I also tried to put forums public + snippet to redirect visitors to login.
But the result is exactly the same. After login there is no redirect to the topic.
here is the snippet if you are curious :
/**
* Redirect bbPress pages for visitors
*/
function yzc_redirect_bbpress_to_login_page() {
if ( ! is_user_logged_in() && ( function_exists( 'is_bbpress') && is_bbpress() ) ) {
// Set Redirection Url
$redirect_url = 'https://www.website.com/login';
wp_redirect( $redirect_url );
exit();
}
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'yzc_redirect_bbpress_to_login_page' );
Do you think possible to redirect to private topic after login ?
regards
Hello I am wondering whether this issue was investigated any further.
I have the same issue where WP Forms User Add On registration is not assigning a user role on approval.
When I deactivate the BBPress plugin. the problem goes away.
Hi guys,
when new topic /new post bbPress private Forum subscribers receive by email a link to the new topic/new post. But, if they are not already logged in, of course they have to log in first and then they are not redirected to the new topic/new post.
I’d like they have direct access URL from email link after login.
Any snippet or else to do that ?

Hi all,
I’m having white pages issue while I setup a very simple forum on that testing sub-domain:
https://greensquare.c-serp.fr/
https://greensquare.c-serp.fr/forums/
https://greensquare.c-serp.fr/forums/forum/gestion-de-la-copro/
My current configuration
– WordPress: 6.5.2 – multi-site
– PHP/MySQL: 7.4.30 / 5.5.5
– Theme: TwentyTwentyFour Child
– Enabled extensions: bbPress (2.6.9), WordPress Importer (0.8.2)
– Enabled network extensions: Comet Cache (170220), Error Log Monitor (1.7.7), Fixed Widget (6.2.3), Forum_wordpress_fr (4.2), Solid Security Basic (9.3.2), WP-Sweep (1.1.8), WP Dashboard Notes (1.0.11)
I’ve read several topics including that one (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blank-topic-pages-on-bbpress-while-using-twenty-twenty-two-theme/) I’ve put the code in my functions.php child, but it didn’t get any better. (I removed it)
But, I’m not too good at geek things, so I’ll appreciate any advices, clues if you read that topic, so I can enjoy testing bbPress extension.
Cheers.
