I have the same issue… Immediately after I try to activate the bbPress pluging, I’m redirected to a page the says “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.”. I have to use the browser’s ‘back’ button to get back to the WordPress dashboard.

When I check in ‘Users’, I notice that I (Administrator) now has a new credential ‘Administrator, Keymaster’ and there is now a new column, called ‘Forum’, where the new role ‘Keymaster’ has also been assigned to me.

However, I do not see the ‘Forum’ item anywhere in the sidebar or top bar, nor in the Settings or Tools items.

What’s up?

bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

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

In my Website the Bbpress has a bug that I don’t know how to fixe.

– When I topic is close, the “reply to this topic” still apear and is possible to write. And it let you to submitted. But after it submitted does not apear nothing.
So the member will be confuse, to where is his answers.

Is it possible to hide “reply” when the topic is close?

Thank you for you help.
Kind Regards,

Hi there,

I recently found bbpress in hopes to create a forum, but after installing and activating the plugin, there are no changes in the dashboard ( forum button did not appear after activation ).

I also noticed that the 2.5.10 bbpress plugin is not tested with my version of WordPress, which is 4.6.1.

Is there anyway to fix this? I am really looking forward to use this plugin for my forum.

Thanks in advance.

I have this same concern. I have to upgrade to PhP 5.5 (and frankly, 5.6 is out of support by Jan 01, 2017, so this is an old issue). Can bbPress be updated to work under PhP 5.5, or at least not throw an error?

Hi friends,

With the

localization

plugin, text tranlation does not work: people still get the english text,
eg :
Hello!\n\nA new topic has been posted by [topic-author].\n\nTopic title: [topic-title]\nTopic url: [topic-url]\n\nTopic excerpt:\n[topic-excerpt]\n\nNotify message by bbPress Notifications

in addition, the Bbp extension (in that localization) says
Compatibility: Loading Issue: Author is using load_textdomain instead of load_plugin_textdomain function. This may break behavior of WordPress, because some filters and actions won’t be executed anymore. Please contact the Author about that.
Thanks for for helping me to find another way to get french texts
regards Charles

bbPress includes the “no replies” view, so you would only need to replace the “top five” shortcode you are currently using with bbPress’ [bbp-single-view id=no-replies] 🙂

[Stephen Edgar]

This sounds like an issue with your theme displaying next and prev links for bbPress’ forum custom post type.

If you temporarily switch to one of the default Twenty themes, say Twenty Fifteen can you still see the next and prev links?

If so you might want to contact the theme author or take a look at creating a custom bbPress template for theme, see: https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/

Hi, I’m not sure if I should be asking for help here, or over at Buddypress, so just let me know if I need to approach someone else.

I have downloaded Buddypress and BBpress to my site which is using X theme. It seemed to be working well until yesterday when I noticed a glitch. When I am logged in, and visit the various menu items on my page, some show me as being logged in, while others (mainly Home and Chat) show me as being logged out (when I’m actually logged in). Have you any ideas as to what might be going on here?

I created a tester user profile to test the site out, and the problem only seems to be arising on Safari. Firefox and Chrome seem to be working fine, and consistently show me as being logged in throughout the site.

Any help you might be able to offer would be much appreciated!

Using bbPress Version 2.5.10 and WordPress 4.6.1.

Many thanks,

Catherine

I repost some questions

1) is there a way to add a sort of “code” somewhere, to have the QUOTE in bbpress posts?

2) If not, is there a plugin that somebody knows? Obviously, if possible, I would prefer some code to avoid another plugin

3) Anybody knows if the function “quote” will be updated in a future version of bbpress? I think I read it some years ago, but it didn’t still arrive.

Thank you for helping

Hello,

PRESTORY

I use BBPress on subsites, in a multisite install.

These subsites are unique, separate sites, and should *NOT* have access to each other’s sites–especially to BBPress member directories!

ISSUE

BBPress Members page shows members from other subsites!

These demonstrates that while each subsite is separate and unique the BBPress content is not separated nor unique and is instead shared across the entier multisite (nightmare).

TBD – This *may* also include subscription content; where a BBPress subscriber on unique and separate Subsite A, may subscribe to the Subsite A BBPress content but then also receive BBPress subscription content from other ostensibly unique and separate subsites (B, C, D…). TBD

QUESTION

How can I have unique instances of BBPress (content, subscriptions, memmbers–everything unique) on unique and separate subsites, within a multisite installation?

Thank you in advance for your specific help keeping separate sites separate.

Thank you,

Chris

Most likely not noticeably, but there are you things you can do to prevent any bbpress scripts from loading on non-forum pages.

[RobertL4807]

I see I have a competitor using MailChimp to send notifications from their bbPress forums such as notifications of new topics in a forum and replies to your post.
Both our sites also use BuddyPress.

I cant seem to find the exact plugin I should use.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

One of my websites has an average loading time, but I fear will bbpress increase the server load time?

Hi there,
Today I found here the forum some very useful code to help me change something as colores and sizes.
But there is a component I could’t change, that is the Forum-Title.
Is there anyone that can help with some simple css as how to change the forum title
I thank you in advance.

[hanifascraps]

I just want to thank @fpradmin because parte of his code, just help me a lot.
I has able to change the size font on my bbpress forum.

Kind Regards,

Hi. Three years later, we actually find ourselves in the opposite situation as well. We’d like to convert BBPress topics/replies to standard posts/comments. Have you done that successfully?

[Marcus Quiroga]

Hi @corypina,

Why do you decide to do that? We are trying do the oposite. BBpress to CPT.

Could you share your experience?

Thank you

So I made a clean install of WordPress and bbPress (and then after a few test posts I installed buddypress which didn’t change anything) and made 2 users. When I @mention a user in the forum it links correctly regardless of how many spaces I enter. HOWEVER, it does always strip the leading spaces down to 1 in the presentation of the post. If I click Edit on the post the original number of spaces can be seen. Is this intended behavior?

I’m going to make the changes to functions.php to enable the visual editor and to enable buddypress @mention suggestions in bbPress visual editor (like my production site) and see if the error reproduces.

Hi guys,
I am just trying to setup my first bbpress forum. I would like to allow unregistered users to create new forum topics and replies. In settings, I have ticked the box Anonymous posting: Allow guest users without accounts to create topics and replies.

However:
1) When trying to create new topic as unregistered user, I am receiving error: “ERROR: Your topic cannot be created at this time.”
2) When trying to respond to existing forum topic as unregistered user, I am receiving error:
“ERROR: Your reply cannot be created at this time.”

Can you please advise what I am missing here? I am using WordPress 4.6.1 and bbpress 2.5.10

Thank you,
Lukas
