I appreciate that you are feeling a sense of frustration.
But both WordPress and bbpress are free software, and come with free support offered by volunteers.
In effect you are asking someone to take their free time to help you, and then complaining that it is not at the level you want.
When I asked for a link to your forum page, you were unable to provide this, giving a link to a page that does not exist. As such it is hard to help – a bit like asking for help with your car, but then not allowing me to examine your car.
If you provide a link to the forum, the I may be able to help further, otherwise ethe best I can offer is to read the documentation

Hi, I’ve been seeing that it is generally suggested to use the bbpress importer to get the data from kunena, but in my case it freezes in step 1 and I guess it’s because of the version difference (since bbpress importer has support until kunena3).
I am looking to migrate a kunena forum in joomla to bbpress with wordpress. The kunena version is 6.x. Is there any way to do it?
Wordpress version: 6.3.1
Bbpress version: 2.6.9
Try to enable tinymce full editor and you will see the button. Check out this documentation.
Folks, this is reference bbPress 2.6.9, WP 6.2.2 and the link to our site forums page is https://www.wb5rdd.org/forums/. My issue is this – Forum users cannot change the font color on their posts. Even with the highest level of access I cannot change the font on the sentence “Please call, text or email me if you can help.” on this page https://www.wb5rdd.org/forums/topic/autumn-in-bonham-bike-rally-radio-operator-assistance-requested/ red. Where are the color choice buttons? Why won’t using HTML code (<FONT COLOR=”#ff0000″> </FONT>) doesn’t even do it. THANKS! – Phillip Beall
Hello,
I also would like to hide Forums from Member Profile Page.
I have set up Groups Forums only as per instructions here so the Forums on Profle Page is obsolette as I want the forums to be accessible only from Group Page.
Could anyone kindly advice how to do it please?
New to BBPress. WordPress version 6.3.1. Avada theme 7.11.2, BBPress 2.6.9. The default installation of BBpress is picking up colors from my theme which I don’t want. I have followed the instructions in the article https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/ like this “The “css” directory contains style sheets that work with the default markup. Copy any you want to modify into a directory named “css” in your theme’s root. eg. /wp-content/themes/%your-theme%/css/” I have created the css directory in the theme root directory and copied the bbpress-rtl.css file to that css directory. I have not yet modified the file. There is no change to the look of BBPress. I even rebooted the server. What am I missing?
Hello, I just installed bbpress plugin, can anyone explain how to install the main forum page (forum lists) on subfolder, so I can achieve these URLS:
main forum page – site.com/forums/
forum category – site.com/forums/categoryname/
forum post – site.com/forums/topic/topicname
Are these possible?

Formatting of User Profile and Search Results pages
I suggested this as a solution
dashboard>Divi >Theme options>Builder >Advanced > Static CSS File Generation > Clear.
then
dashboard>divi>Theme Options>Performance> Dynamic CSS option and disable
THEN critically you need to clear and server side caching, AND clear your browser cache.
Server side will depend on your host, and/or any caching plugins you have installed.
Browser – see this helpful article
How To Clear Cache for All Major Browsers
then it all worked fine
posts, postmeta and options
bbpress just uses the custom post type features of bbpress, so the entries are mixed in with all the page, post and any other custom post types you have.
options holds the settings
you can hook to various actions in bbpress eg
add_action( 'show_user_profile', 'xxx', 50,2 ) ;
//does the display/edit if viewing another's profile
add_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'xxx', 50,2 ) ;
//does the save if viewing own profile
add_action( 'personal_options_update', 'xxx' );
//does the save if viewing another's profile
add_action( 'edit_user_profile_update', 'xxx' );
but would need user registration to tell you what functions to put in the xxx
Hi guys, and thanks to Robin for a great piece of software!
I have a website with a bbp forum and with User Registration plugin I will also gather marketing consent and get users to accept the T&C (with checkboxes).
The question is how can I get this info, which can be found in the WP user profile, to the bbp profile page? Would be even more awesome if the user could check or uncheck their marketing consent, for example, in their profile.
best,

Hi, I use GD bbPress Attachments
GD bbPress Attachments is an easy-to-use plugin for WordPress and bbPress for implementing files upload for bbPress Forums topics and replies. You can control file sizes from the main plugin settings panel, or you can change some attachments settings for each forum individually.
Works fine for my forum
This is one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
As well as 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
Hi all

Hi,
I have tried my best to remove the log in and register button from the top of my Forum page (www.pytteliv.se/forum). I would prefer to only use the bbpress widget for those actions. Is that doable, and if so, really happy to get any info on how to achieve that.
I am trying to use a GitHub Issue Tracker as a replacement for one of my bbPress support forums. How I I remove this specific forum group / children from being visible to ANYONE (apart from me)?
sorry, I’m just a free volunteer, I generally don’t have the time to look at individual problems, and this seems to be specific to your site.
I am suspicious that it might be caching software – can you confirm that neither your site or hoster use this, or if they do as a test disable.
I would also try
dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets the permalinks and may help
Then I would do the following
it could be a theme or plugin issue
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
And yes, I am aware that they seem to be confused about bbPress vs BuddyBoss. But I think the underlying question is still the same, regarding what cache groups to exclude.
Ok, so beloaw is the most recent response from Cloudways. Can anyone from bbPress possibly provide the info requested so we can properly exclude this from Redis? Thanks!
————————-
These specific errors typically occur due to the buddy boss caching group conflicting with the Redis keys.
It is usually essential to exclude some of the cache groups/plugins to ensure that there are no conflicts due to different ways of handling of cache key which can cause issues with transients.
If any conflicts are observed, the best way to do this is to exclude them as instructed in the guide below:-
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/understanding-ignored-groups-and-how-to-best-apply/
https://objectcache.pro/docs/ignoring-groups
This typically requires a bit of testing due to different caching statuses which can still be utilized to ensure the proper allocation of resources.
We have already implemented a documented fix that was typically applied by Buddy Boss:-
https://github.com/buddyboss/buddyboss-platform/issues/1715
However, despite numerous methods, the issue remains. Due to the circumstance of this issue, it’s imperative to check in with the plugin team before excluding their groups further, they can typically provide proper cache groups which can ensure perfect performance as other caching groups involving BuddyBoss typically was not documented and could have a negative performance impact if excluded without proper evaluation.
