Hi, for future people who may meet this issue, i used this fix but it worked only on one of my 2 websites. However, i could solve it on my website, and i believe that the origin of the problem has been found :
This solution may work for those who have installed a membership plugin (s2member, wishlistmember, optimizepress). The issue seems to be with the way these plugins manage the searches. They seem to catch on the fly the searches to hide content, and can create a conflict of compatibility with some other plugins like bbpress which need to display content based on roles. Plugins like Wishlistmember and S2member (or optimizepress, based on s2member,) allow deactivating of this without creating any major issue for the membership site. For those using optimizepress, it can be done thanks to the alternative view protection feature in OP. I only unchecked “Searches”, and the problem disapeared, which would confirm this idea that the issue comes from the way that searches are handled by the membership plugin.
For those using WLM, here is someone who found where to made a similar configuration (although it may have a bigger impact) :
“The issue on my site had to do with a setting in WishList Member. For me I had to go to WishList Member >> Settings >> Protection Defaults and then set the “Only show content for each membership level:” and set to “No”. After I did that it worked.”

best way would be to edit the templates
loop_forums
loop-single-forum
loop-topics
loop-single-topic
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-forums.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-forums.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this
then repeat for the others
@robin-w
Thank you for the feedback.
It’s good that the issue is already addressed.
But the question is not about dequeuing, but about enqueuing.
Why not the bbPress core, enqueue the stylesheet only when is_bbpress() is true?
In one of our site, bbPress is used to display forum.
But bbpress.css is loading on the home page, where there is no widget or no forum.
Screenshot – taken on incognito mode (logged out):
http://prntscr.com/mxmh1n
sure it’s in
\bbpress 2.5.13\includes\common\shortcodes.php
Hey Robin,
I was able to hash it out. We are using BuddyPress lock and it is hiding the original post of a member of BuddyPress in BBPress. I have to revisit the plugin and how secure we want the site to be.
Thank you for the quick reply and I will make sure to have more info on my posts.
Hi everybody,
I’m actually developing a Forum for a WordPress site.
My Home is composed by 3 sections. Each section is a Forum who list child forum (I’m ok with that it’s already ok). But the last section need to be a Forum who list topics of this Forum.
But when I try to use <?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[bbp-single-forum id=123]‘ ); ?> it’s a mess.
my content-archive-forum.php looks like:
<div id="bbpress-forums">
<div class="bbpress-header">
<div class="bbpress-header__image">
<img src="image.png" alt="Illustration sabre - Forum">
</div>
<div class="bbpress-header__headline"><h1>Welcome</h1></div>
<div class="bbpress-header__lead-paragraphe">
<p>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. <span>Donec vel auctor diam.</span>
Nulla odio diam, maximus ut libero ut, <span>pharetra ullamcorper</span> orci. Sed magna nisl,
pellentesque at ligula nec, condimentum viverra. Petit texte d’intro sur le forum (juste une idée)?
</p>
</div>
</div>
<?php bbp_get_template_part('user', 'bar'); ?>
<?php bbp_breadcrumb(); ?>
<?php bbp_forum_subscription_link(); ?>
<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_before_forums_index' ); ?>
<?php if ( bbp_has_forums() ) : ?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'loop','forums'); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'feedback', 'no-forums' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_after_forums_index' ); ?>
</div>
How I can just add a section who display juste the list of the topic for a specific forum ?
Best regards ! 🙂
what version of bbpress are you running?
The problem is that themes do not use the wordpress template standards – in many cases for good reasons, but bbpress cannot understand every theme.
I presume you have been here
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1
Hi – I am running the Activetab Child Theme with a left side bar. The Pages menu includes an option to make the pages full width with no side bar. How do I do that to Forum pages? There are numerous solutions posted on this none of which work. There seems to be wide spread demand to have full width bbpress forum pages but no easy way to do it. It makes sense not have the forum pages crowed with side bar noise that is required on the main page but nowhere else. The lack of support for this is a serious weakness in the bbpress plugin.
I have a child theme implemented and have no problem adding bbpress specific overrides to the style sheet if they work and persist after plugin, theme and WordPress upgrades.

Best ragards.
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

can you swap to a default theme and retest with only bbpress running as plugin
Hi everyone,
Hopefully someone can help me decipher this error (with WP_DEBUG). Without WP_DEBUG simply getting a blank page. Front index and viewing topics works fine, but for some reason the forums (where you see a list of topics) don’t work.
Tried disabling all plugins, besides bbPress of course. Running the latest WordPress version 5.1.
Kind regards,
Jonas.

I like the bbPress plugin because of the Freshness column on the forum page. However I do have a couple of questions.
1. In my current forum/blog I do not allow participants to add topics, they are only allowed to add comments to a topic. Is there a way in which I can only let the key master add a topic and NOT participants?
2. In my current forum/blog all topics are password protected. Is there a way in which I can set a password for the individual topics? (The password would be the same for all topics and all participants know the password.)
Wordpress version: 5.1
bbPress version: 2.5.14

You should note that this just magnifies the image, so it will be less defined the bigger you make it.

With widgets, i get the URL i dont want:
http://www.dgf-esport.dk/?page_id=709
Without widgets, i get the URL i want:
http://www.dgf-esport.dk/forum
I’ve tried plugins with a side widget which many recommend, but the problem here is the i cant se the widget because of the permalinks, which i dont really get..
The website is live but far from finished yet. I do really hope anyone can help me!
