You shouldn’t need to edit any of bbPress functions.
You can achieve what you are after by adding your own custom templates:
This is a guide to getting started with these: https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/amending-bbpress-templates/
This is a helpful reference for bbPress’ templates: https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/template-hierarchy-in-detail/
What I think you’d be looking to do is make changes to your child themes loop-single-reply.php template so that only the links to replies are there by removing bbp_reply_content() .
I’ve installed BBpress and it didn’t show in the WP menu.
After some searching I found the topic on User roles and gave myself admin and keymaster role.
Now I can see the BB press options in the WP menu, but when I try to acces them I get an error: ‘ You are not allowed to edit posts in this post type. ‘
My version of WordPress is outdated. Can this be the problem here?
Specs:
BB press 2.5.10
Wordpress: 4.4.5
Kind regards, Simon

I tried this :
– de-activation of bbPress
– des-installation of bbPress
– re-installation of bbPress
– re-activation of bbPress
with the same result : no Welcome page, no additional options in the sidebar.
I don’t have BuddyPress installed.
But I noticed on the WP detail pop-up about bbPress : “Not tested with your WP version”.
Thank you very much for your feedback.
Yeah you can probably do it. You may need to customize the bbPress templates in a child theme. Then just add a link where it says to login in html or php. I think the files you will need to edit are in the form-reply.php and form-topic.php files.

How to make all links in the forum with re=”nofollow”?
Its like that by default.
How to disappear content for how not login? so just in he will login, the info will appear to him?
I am guessing you want Private forums/content. You can use a couple of plugins depending on how private you want these forums.
How to disappear content for how not login? so just in he will login, the info will appear to him?
By default in bbPress, if you edit each forum, you are able to set a forum to public, private, or hidden. Setting a forum to private will only allow users who are logged in to see the content.
So are these notifications are they from the bbPress notify plugin? Because that error you posted is related to the bbPress notify plugin.
Not sure what to recommend since you are using a plugin that seems to not be supported anymore. You are using the old version not the forked (no spam) version that is actively developed.
You might need to hire a developer to fix everything for you.
You can either use an alternate plugin beside bbPress WP Tweaks that can give you similar control over widgets on bbPress pages, or you can go without using a forum main page which that plugin might not support.
If you aren’t using any plugins that modify the registration process or custom frontend registration forms and instead are using the default WordPress registration forms, right after you get an activation link in your email, you should be redirected to a strong autogenerated password that you can edit if you want, just make sure to edit it before you hit reset password. If a user wants to change their password later they can also do that in their bbPress edit profile section.
As for the emails going to spam, a way that can help this is by sending email through an SMTP server for your site. There are a bunch of plugins on WordPress that can help configure this.
Weird one.. I have removed old customers no longer on a course but found some are still being notified of new posts.
It is possible this links to what looks like an error on the Forum Settings Page. Example is below. Anyone got an idea?
Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, string given in /var/sites/s/secretgarden.eu.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress-notify/bbpress-notify.php on line 361

Its a known bug. Here is the trac ticket for the issue.
Like it says in the ticket it’s possible to restore the topic on the frontend.

Just another reply to you @mimbelli about your opinion on using plugins for most of the features.
While I’m sure that WordPress will not disappear in few years I cannot swear for sure on each plugin. What will happen when a plugin I used throughout all my site will not be upgraded because the developer went on Mars? I became very careful to choose my plugin since it happens several times in my life.
Make sure to use some quality plugins from very good developers. Most of the plugins I mentioned in your original topic were pretty good quality in my opinion.
If you did go the route of mainly using BuddyPress, GD bbPress Toolbox, bbPress Pencil Unread, then that should be good enough. BuddyPress is very actively developed, GD bbPress Toolbox is actively developed (its a paid plugin) and adding tons of features you wanted even report post functionality, and the Pencil Unread plugin is now improving its plugin to include features that are in other unread posts plugins.
Just updated to 4.6.1 recently and it seems to work fine on my dev site.
@pauldamas
If your this was a fresh bbPress installation I would try a re-installation.
We have some users in the forum mention similar issues while having also installed BuddyPress. Do you have BuddyPress installed as well.
You may also have to make sure you have the plugin activated. I have seen users get confused at how the new way WordPress installs plugins with a single button and no screen change. Some people forget to wait after the loading icon goes, then the button turns into an activate button. Some users forget that and do not activate the plugin.
How do i add BBpress to my site for Uganda Safaris. I need tourists to communicate with each other through forums. Please help!
I just merged your two created topics since they are pretty much the same, but you just detailed different information for each.
Have you set any forums as private through bbPress, or are they all set as public?
Have you tried running the repair tools in Tools > Forums, and made sure to run each tool one at a time?
Have made sure to clear any cache from any plugins you have, or made sure they are set up correctly?
The Coffeeblack Plugin for BBpress and Mediapress does this
Mediapress BBpress Gallery Insert From Editor
Some further background… I’m running this on my local desktop with Apache 2.4, MySQL 5.0 PHP 5.5.36
and WordPress 4.6
Also have installed Buddypress but after issues with bbpress I have deactivated Buddypress which made no decernable difference at all. Also this is a pretty much sterile install, these are the only 2 plugins that have been added i.e. Buddypress & bbpress and as I noted Buddypress is not active at present.
I’m working on my third install of bbpress and still having the same problem I have already deleted 2 previous copies of WordPress and bbpress simply because I don’t seem to be able to getthem to work.
It is looking like I have made some progress though. Where as I was simply getting an empty page I am at least getting a list of forums and even a notice i.e.

Which is of course the title of my first reply.
The only thing in any of this is my username and the 4 minutes ago part. I’m not seeing anything that looks even sort of like a forum only a couple of notices that tell me there are forums and topics but forget attempting to actually see those topics or replies.
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
Hello.
I have a problem with the bbpress sidebar. I use bbpress wp tweaks to create a widget area for bbpress. Thats ok.
But: When i create a forum mainpage i dont have a chance to use this sidebar. I only have the choice to use sidebar left and right, but that would show the blogsidebar.
What can i do to use the widget area for bbpress on sites. Link: https://myblender.de/blendtec-forum/
