I’m presuming you are also
WP v. 5.2.2, bbpress v. 2.5.14. WP is bundled with Bluehost. Theme is OceanWP.
?
Hi. What is the expected timing for 2.6?
I recently installed BBPress and was surprised the latest version for installation was 2.5.14. I also get a notice that the plugin βhas not been tested with your current version of WordPress.β
Performance/speed is important to me, and last I looked into it 2.6 was supposed to be a big improvement.
WordPress version is 5.2.3
bbPress version is 2.5.14
Hello,
I am having a problem with bbPress. When I go to my forum, my welcome page is in that path. Like it is Welcome > Forum > Forum topic. I do not want my welcome page to be there. I have included a screenshot that will show what I am talking about. If someone can help me out here, that would be awesome.
Thank you in advanced!

How do I set my bbPress forums page as my home page in WordPress?
pretty sure not, what other bbpress related plugins are you using ?
Maybe I didn’t explain it correctly. This is text below the forum and in Developer Tools, it says the lines of text are coming from “div.bbpas.header.” The first statement is: “There is currently 1 user and 1 guest online.” and the other is, “Activity within the past 24 hours: 3 users and 39 guests.” Is this text coming from bbpress?
sorry neither of those is native bbpress. Must be another plugin
Why does my members only forum show that there are guests online when there are no guests in the membership site. Also, bbpress info says that there have been 36 guests in the last 24 hours. Anyone with access to the forum has a Participant role. So, who are these guests and where are they coming from? Thanks.
bbpress expects to see a wordpress user, and if you current app doesn’t do that, then bbpress won’t work – it is hooked at every turn to user_id in wordpress.
best I can offer is
Login with Salesforce
hmm, without a link all I can suggest is
1. Are you creating them as super sticky ?
2. It could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, 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.
Then come back
Hello,
my bbpress version is 2.5.14
Wordpress version is 5.2.3
When a topic is created in a single forum, that topic is also displayed in all other forums aswell. So all forums include all the topics. How can I fix it?
I would add the website link, but under construction mode enabled so not accessible
Upload files to plugin directory -> bbpress folder -> overwrite -> wp-admin panel -> plugins -> disable bbpress -> enable bbpress -> tools -> forums -> upgrade forums tab -> run all
Thanks, i will try but it will take me a bit, as I need to understand/google some things.
Meanwhile, maybe it is easier if it is possible to use an icon instead. Like this:

bbpress just uses wordpress user, so if your site authenticates to WP, then bbpress will work fine
Hello,
We currently have built a website with a custom theme and are looking to add create a community within our website.
Our site architecture dictates user authentication/authorization to content managed through a 3rd party SaaS platform (Salesforce), so users are never hosted within WP. So user authenticates to site via API call to Salesforce, which has a token returned which authenticates to site and authorizes content. My question is has anyone attempted to leverage bbPress with this architecture, adopting the authentication cookie to identify the user in bbPress and subsequent posts?
I have not found any documentation on this approach therefore thought I’d start here. If there’s documentation out there and I’m blind, feel free to give me a nudge. Thanks!
I changed this in \wp-content\languages\plugins\bbpress-es_ES.po:
msgid “Posts”
msgstr “Publicaciones”
To this:
msgid “Posts”
msgstr “Mensajes”
I cleared cache from WP and cleared Chrome cache, but I still see “Publicaciones” here:
http://www.ffximobile.es/foro/
Is there a way to set the maximum length of posts, or edit the maximum length of titles? I wasn’t able to find it in the settings, or find any clear answer on google that seemed relevant.
I’m on bbPress version 2.5.14-6684 and WP version 5.2.3.
Thanks!
Hey Robin! I found it (hallelujah and thank you for your help!). There was a tiny setting deep in the recesses of the Avada theme that was causing these to not show up (I had been trying to work with their support team, too, but they kept telling me it was bbPress ;). Just for anyone else that finds this issue in Avada, you have to scroll to the bottom of your forum page when you are in edit mode to Avada Options > Page Title Bar > Show Bar and Content (or just “Show Content”) then adjust from there!
Good grief. Such grief. Ha ha. Now to find out why posts are not publishing from anyone other than me and being held in “moderation”. May need to hire a developer on this one, as I’m testing permissions wide open on staging and still can’t get it to go! Ah. Websites. π
Thanks, Robin
A default theme with just bbpress shows these, so it is either theme or plugin related – I can only suggest

Hey Robin, I was just looking around to try to fix all the weirdness with my bbPress (still have no idea why there are so many issues with it!) and found this: https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/configuring-bbpress/creating-content/
“Sticky β Posts will stick to top of the Forum which it is in.
Super Sticky β Posts will stick to the top of all Forums.”
This is a “Super Sticky” post βΒ it sounds like it is supposed to stick the top of all forums, but it’s not here. Am I misunderstanding?
Thanks!
Ok, I found the problem. I read in this website to create a bbpress folder inside content languages and enter the translated files inside it. I have removed it and now is again in spanish.
So, which file should I change? Should I just change \wp-content\languages\plugins\bbpress-es_ES.po ?
It could be a theme or plugin issue

If that doesn’t work, talk to your hosting company
Also, if I’m in bbPress forum, also the user bbpress login widget is in english (http://www.ffximobile.es/foro/) but in other pages on my site, it is correctly in spanish (http://www.ffximobile.es/)
Hi i have 2 issues with bbpress.
In my forum https://www.carrozzieri-italiani.com/forums/
it seems that it doesnt update the topic informations.
Freshness has stoped and also the number of posts and topics doesnt changes.
See the NEWS section…it says “0 topics” but in fact there is at least 1 topic.
second issue is the number of sub-forums of “coachbuilders” (accossato, ala d’oro…etc) displayed is limited to 100…but there are many more…
