This is not standard behaviour.

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

This has been a long time issue where bbpress is installed and when you log into the admin area (dashboard) of your website, you lose the admin page and end up on the front-end of your website. This happens all the time and not sure why this has never officially been addressed.

I have the admin-bar disabled on the front-end of the site because it annoys me and don’t want to see it. So when I log into the admin, I lose the admin page and end up on the front of the site. Because I disabled the admin-bar, I have to always manually type in any admin page to get back into the admin area.

Why is this happening and even though I have not tried the upcoming 2.6 version, I’m hoping this has been fixed for that one.

@booknerds

im not sure antispam bee is compatible with bbPress though, there is a plugin for bbPress that is inspired by antispam bee though.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-antispam/

maybe you should manually approve users using this plugin too

New User Approve

I think it would be more better to go through the list of Best security plugins to keep website secure and protected.

I am looking for a way so that when a User posts into a specific BBPress forum, it will put a Tab on their buddypress profile with a link to that post.

Any guidance?

Hi,

I tried Upwork and Freelancer but it seems kinda hard to find someone who really knows BBpress.

I am looking to customize my existing forums (and BuddyPress) so that my forums have a custom user signature with company logo.

I have a fullset of detailed mockups and notes.

Any suggestions on hiring a freelance programmer, referrals, or anyone a programmer who is interested in taking a look at the project?

Much appreciated.
Robert

hi @casiepa,

You are welcome to include our bbpress forum https://www.ibf.lv/ (internet business forum for Latvians) to the showcase if you think it resembles the actual brotherhood of active bbpress forums.

Good enough? 😉

My website is in Spanish, but bbpress appears in English.

Buddypress is translated without problem. In change, the bbpress translation does not work even if you have uploaded the bbpress-es_ES.po and bbpress-es_ES.mo files to / www / wp-content / languages / bbpress after creating the folder.

In the following link you can check how it is in English:

Agenda Holística Ser Consciente. Dudas sobre la web

bbPress 2.5.14-6684.
WordPress. Versión 4.9.6

[Mantosh Pal]

As you can see how the title is appearing on forum.

sidebar is also not working. I am trying to remove sidebar from the pages using the editor setting still I think bbpress overwriting the setting and let showing sidebar instead I have selected no sidebar as wider page but still showing.

[dedotombo]

I have the exact same issue using BuddyPress 2.9.4 (cannot update to 3 because of theme issues) and bbpress 2.5.14 (latest).

Hi everyone
Is there a way to remove the topic link from the email that bbpress sends out when someone creates a topic?

My forums are private and the links don’t work unless the user is signed in so I’ve been asked to investigate if I can change the email because if the user is not logged in then it looks like the link is just broken.

I know … and my solution was for the user to be logged in before they click the link but apparently that’s too hard 🙂

Hoping someone can help and thanking you in advance.

[christelijkpodium]

On the forums page: https://www.christelijk-podium.nl/forums/

When you click on Business Forum, you are being notified that you should upgrade your profile.

When you click on ChristelijkPodium Live, you are redirected to the PMPro Registration Page.

How can I make clicking on Business Forum to also go to the PMPro Registration Page?

[favog]

We have a BBPress forum that is behind a membership site, and we give them the capability of subscribing to threads. Our problem is that if a person stops subscribing they no longer have access to the site, and therefore have no way of unsubscribing from a topic.

Is there a way that we can generate a script/link to force an automatic unsubscribe from all topics when removing the user? Even if we need to manually create the link, it would be an improvement.

I can generate code if necessary-just don’t know where to start.

Thanks,
Bob

FYI I’m using version 4.9.6 of wordpress and version 2.5.14 of bbPress.

I added custom code to my theme functions.php page to add customized roles for bbPress. The roles show up when I edit users and want to change their roles, but when I go to save it, they just default back to a participant role. How can I fix this? Here is the code I used below:

/* bbPress Custom Roles */
function add_custom_role( $bbp_roles ) {
 

$bbp_roles['my_custom_role2'] = array(
'name' => 'Producer',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role3'] = array(
'name' => 'Engineer',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role4'] = array(
'name' => 'Songwriter',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role5'] = array(
'name' => 'Staff',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() ) // the same capabilities as keymaster
);
$moderator = bbp_get_moderator_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$moderator] = array(
'name' => 'Moderator',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() ) // the same capabilities as keymaster
);
$keymaster = bbp_get_keymaster_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$keymaster] = array(
'name' => 'Chief Executive Officer',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_keymaster_role() ) // the same capabilities as keymaster
);
$apprentice = bbp_get_participant_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$apprentice] = array(
'name' => 'Member',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
return $bbp_roles;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_custom_role', 1 );

I don’t know what went wrong but bbPress is giving 404 error on my site’s homepage 🙁

[Pierre-Henri Lavigne]

Good Day everyone,

For a few years now I have bbPress and WordPress installed in French language.
Currently using bbpress 2.5.14 and WordPress 4.9.6.
The two language files bbpress-fr_FR.mo and bbpress-fr_FR.po are located in the wp-content/plugins/languages folder.

Everything looks to work fine except that since the beginning notifications mails are sent in English language. I never figured out the reason and hope someone could help me.
Everytime it’s the default template like “Mr Foo wrote:”, “New Topic”, etc…

The original WordPress install was in English language but I installed the French pack during the updates, I define (‘WPLANG’, ‘fr_FR’); in wp-config.php as well and the admin interface is in french. I don’t understand. I tried to modified the .po / .mo file with a software but no effects. I’m using WP Config SMTP plugin but I don’t think it’s related, right ?

Any help / advise would be really appreciated.

[pigpotato]

I fixed it like this.

1. make css folder in wordpress>wp-content>theme>[mytheme]
2. cp wordpress>wp-content>plugins>bbpress>templates>default>css>bbpress.css wordpress>wp-content>theme>[mytheme]>css
3. add these code lines in the css file.
#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form input[id=bbp_anonymous_email]{ display: none; }
4. cp wordpress>wp-content>plugins>bbpress>templates>default>bbpress>form-anonymous.php wordpress>wp-content>theme>[mytheme]>bbpress
5. fix any email address in email textfield. Edit the form-anonymous.php
<input type=”text” id=”bbp_anonymous_email” value=”guest@guest.com” ….

[Lars Henriksen]

Hello,

I have created a forum thread in a bbpress forum. A user replies in my thread. I get a notification, but the topic field is empty, and I can’t click on the notification. Maybe it is caused by the fact that replies don’t have a title?

Cheers,
Lars

I wish to remove certain functions and text from the forum table (such as the name of the user who started the topic and his/her avatar) to reduce the cluttering. How could I delete/edit text and hyperlinks associated with bbPress?

I’m using twenty seventeen theme.

[randomguy124]

I’m creating a forum website and wish to add a particular sidebar to the right of the forum table with specific bbPress widgets. However, all plugins that allow new sidebars to be created require an existing sidebar to be replaced. Now my problem is that the only existing sidebar in the Forum page is the footer sidebar. which can’t be removed, and so, how do I create a completely new sidebar in a location where there is no sidebar previously existing (forum page)?

P.S.- I am using twenty seventeen theme.

[ohmygod88]

UPDATE
I tried changing the settings in Polylang to remove language prefix in the URL and everything is working now.

However, may I know if I wish to have ‘zh’ in the URL as prefix then how do I approach to solve the issue? I believe the issue is caused by the language prefix which bbPress does not recognize it by default.

[saulmayo]
