Hi,
In the bbpress index page, the top row shows:
homepage-title > Forums > Forum-title
How could I change homepage-title here? bbpress seems to take this from the title of the site’s default page. Is there a way to put a different text there (or remove the homepage-title altogether)?
Thanks,

Hi,
I don’t think this is bbPress related, right ?
If not, then you’re better off on the wordpress.org support forum
If it IS related, then please explain how you see that in the bbPress context.
Thanks,
Pascal.
It might be your theme too is causing you issues with 4.5
The only way to find out is to switch to a default theme like Twenty Fifteen, deactivate all plugins except bbPress and start testing from there.
When you found what is blocking, open support requests for the theme/plugin. But I confirm that on bbPress side all seems working great with 4.5.
Sorry I can’t further help you, but if you find the issue, please post it back here.
Pascal.
solved with the following custom CSS
#bbpress-forums div.reply { height: auto; width: inherit !Important; }
There is some problem with GD bbPress Attachments too. An attachment to a post doesn´t appear in the post.
will the changes affect this rewrite set? i see bbpress replies as comments?
No, for bbPress 2.7 yes, but not for bbPress 2.6

Hi all,
I am running wordpress 4.5 and bbpress 2.5.8
Recently, one thread on my forum has started redirecting to the first page (not the last page) in the thread. Therefore once posted the user needs to click on the last page to see their post.
All other posts are fine.
Here is the post.
I updated the permalinks, and ran all of the bbpress repair tools, but no change.
Any help would be appreciated!
Hello Pascal there non funcation codit for bbpress but i see some change made to some files in bbpress
in db wp-usermeta allows when i reply the topic id been deleted from the colomuns wp__bbp_subscriptions
i had check all files are inside bbpress\includes\topics all are orginal from the plugin and nothing been edited where i have to check as well
thank you for your help
Regards
which functions.php you mean the theme one or the one in plugins\bbpress\includes\replies\functions.php
or \plugins\bbpress\templates\default\bbpress-functions.php ?!!!
I have installed
bbPress
bbp style pack
bbPress New Topics
bbPress WP Tweaks bbP private groups
Here where I write this text there is a linkbutton which works, but i doesn´t work in my forum ab update to wp 4.5. It did weork before I updated.

Hello,
Yes sort of. My email is redirected to Office 365, now on my old host when this happened, I could not use the internal php mail function, it had to be an SMTP account on a sub domain that was not redirected over to Office 365. Although it is not required where I am now, it seems that using SMTP is safer.
I had to change the sending address and name so BBPress would talk to the WP SMTP plugin if you know what I mean. Had to do the same for BuddyPress.
Thanks.
So I’ve got
<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_title' ); ?>
<span class="bbp-topic-started-in"><?php printf( __('%2$s', 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_forum_permalink( bbp_get_topic_forum_id() ), bbp_get_forum_title( bbp_get_topic_forum_id() ) ); ?></span>
"><?php bbp_topic_title(); ?>
And if the forum id equals 8397, I want to assign a different class to it… <?php if ( bbp_get_topic_forum_id() == 8397 )
But I’m a bit stuck here. Any suggestions?
Hello,
I found some working code, could you please just check it to make sure it is 100% valid and I am not missing anything?
/*BBPress email fix*/
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from_name', 'email_sent_from_name' );
function email_sent_from_name( $name )
{
return 'SITE NAME';
}
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', 'email_sent_from' );
function email_sent_from( $email )
{
return 'email@example.com';
}
Yes, I did replace the values with required ones such as the address and send from name.
Thanks.
Hi,
Something is strange in your theme … Also when I look from it from a smaller screen, everything gets on top of other things.
A quick and dirty patch ?
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-author, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author {
width: 25%;
}
But you need more to fix your whole environment.
Pascal.
If you have ‘Reply Threading’ activated in ‘Settings > Forums > Forum Features’, then your pagination will not work. So you have to choose: Threads or Pagination.
If you are into coding, on this page you can find somebody that has found a workaround.

Hi I’m hoping someone can give me some direction. I should start by saying i’m not a big coder or developer so apologies if this is really simple to solve. Every post in BBpress is accompanies by the user date on the left hand side. On the initial post in a topic this user data column is wide enough to contain all of the relevant data.
On subsequent posts the column is indented and becomes too narrow to display everything. For an example of this issue on the site I’m developing view
https://officerofthewatch.co.uk/Officers-Mess/topic/officer-of-the-watch-help-wanted/
You will note on the second post by ‘aquabon’ the ‘send a message’ text is partially cut off.
Is there anyway to increase this column width to match that of the original poster?
After the todays (13/4) update to WordPress 4.5 link doesn´t funktion in the bbPress edit box.
Is a bbPress update coming to solve this problem?

Hi Guys,
I got the problem, that bbPress is not splitting the posts in different pages when there are a few answers. For example: http://germansimracing.de/community/thema/dauerstartnummern/
Is there anything to setup or what could be the problem? I updated WordPress a few minutes ago to the newest version. bbPress and all other plugins are up to date, too.
Thanks in Advance for your help! 🙂
Hi,
You seem to have a memory issue, nothing to see with bbPress. Your limit is set to 64MB and you need more.
I will have to refer you to https://wordpress.org/support/ where somebody can help you increasing your memory limit.
Pascal.
bbPress should take the same name as all the others. There might be a bbPress related plugin that changes it ? (just a guess)
I’m personally using Postman SMTP and that one seems to suit my needs.
Pascal.
Hello,
I am using this plugin.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-smtp/
I am trying to change the sender name and sender email address for BBPress. I have successfully done this for BuddyPress, but all the code I have tried for BBPress or all the code I have seen in older topics, is not doing it for me.
Can you please recommend some code that I can change the sender name and sender email address?
Thanks.
Here you go
http://www.coffeeblack.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/bbpress-vbulletin-permalinks-1.zip
for now it just basically replicates the permalinks that I have in Vbulletin but it puts the threads into their parent forums etc
You are welcome
Please post any changes here and ill setup the github properly so it can be updated there.
Mods admins etc please see if you can integrate this as an option in the core.
Hello there, every time I attempt to activate the bbPress plugin it throws this error at me.
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4480 bytes) in /mypool/web/vhosts/PR01088/infpunite.org/www/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/replies/functions.php on line 213
How can I fix this? I’ve been really wanting to use bbPress for a while and still can’t get it to work.
There are no spaces between paragraphs in forums, unless I double space, but on the blog posts and other pages where I use the visual editor, there are proper spaces. I realize that the visual editor was removed from bbpress because of issues. I am using a plugin called “bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab” to re-activate it because for me, the forums are useless without it.
Any ideas on how to fix this, or if there is another solution such as a different plugin? Any info/news when bbpress will be creating a built in visual editor?
Thank you!
