Hmm, nothing comes to my mind directly. Maybe with a plugin like https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbpress-new-ui ?
I also saw a lot of ‘Oh bother no topics’ and other messages. You can always use my bbP Toolkit to hide those.

yes. I want to change the bbpress forum and subforum background color.

em…it is just rough number 660K ~ 600K ,don;t need to be specific, same bad, and I did not manage to manage 60K ;p could NOT even remove 10topics…
anyway, to be honest, with all due respects, PHP 5.6 will NOT help everyone remove from 10 topics to 100 topics.
I wish developers, if possible kindly, to contact us, I will let you work on it
(I think not many people so far yet to use bbpress for big forums)
Well, you seem to have managed to remove 60K already in the mean time.
I edited my post, not sure it you saw that, but WordPress proposes PHP 5.6 and not 5.5 as you have. Of course all works, but I remember well, the latest bbPress test runs show increased performance on the higher PHP platform.
Pascal.
well, yes to all and also I do not believe tweak could make “removing 10 topics” works smoothly in bbpress ;p it is “helly” slow, tweaking makes some helps, but you are still in hell
I am willing to give away access on our dev site that has 600K posts inside for bbpress developer if needed
thanks for all!
Well, for finding the help and responses, I hope you’re not disappointed.
Please note that WordPress runs best on PHP 5.6 and higher (you seem to use 5.5) : https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/
– Have you run all the repair tools of bbpress after import to be sure your structure is optimized ?
– Have you deactivated any not-needed plugin ? Is your theme ready for bbPress ?
– Are you using any cache mechanism to improve speed where possible ?
– Did you try to run performance tools like the P3 plugin performance profiler to narrow down the possible slow parts ? Or gtmetrix.com as starting point ?
Some further reading: https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/improving-performance/
Also note that in the upcoming bbPress v2.6 (hopefully before the end of this year), a lot of focus went on possible performance issues.
Hope it helps,
Pascal.
well, I am 1000% sure it is bbpress (or wordpress) ‘s codes issue

We were at invisionboard forum system(ZERO issues on this) , with wordpress+bbpress, it hangs even we just try to trash 10 topics….
reason why I move to wordpress+bbpress? better integration and easier to find someone to help
Hi everyone, I apologise if this has been asked before. I’ve tried searching through the forums and can’t find a solution – I’ve tried a couple (such as creating a bbpress.php file in a bbpress directory in my child themes folder) but it doesn’t resolve the issue.
I have the Forum Index/Root set to the default ‘Forums’ slug. However, when I try to visit this link: http://sheisboss.co.uk/forums – I just get a completely blank page.
I’m truly stumped! Any advice would be awesome – thank you 🙂
We have imported 660K posts forum into bbpress, wordpress ‘s backend management for bbpress just works so BAD for any mass move/delete/trash functions
e.g. , I now want to remove a forum with 56 topics ONLY, I click “trash” on WP’s /wp-admin, it simply HANGS. It is crazily slow and it never ends done… I could not imagine one day when we need to delete forum spammer’s posts, how slow it will be
I am ware of that there are some mass move/delete plugins, but they are not for bbpresss
please help on this if you could, thanks !:)
This looks great, I just tried it on my forum and it works on categories but not on forums.
I’m running latest WP, BBPress, BuddyPress versions with the Brickyard theme and the code is installed in my theme’s functions.php file..
Cheers

One tedious issue I have with bbPress is that when someone posts content from another site the content rarely displays correctly first time and the user has to edit the topic in order for it to display right.
This leads me to my main issue. the result is that subscribed members get at least two new topic notifications, one for the initial post and another after the edit.
Surely an edit of an existing post should not create an entirely new topic notification?
Is there anyway to change this behaviour?
Thanks Casiapa for your contribution.
The question here is; could you please explain to me how to create a child plugin for bbpres so that i can make the changes or if i can get blank bbpress child plugin will appreciate.
i know how to create child theme for all kind of themes but i have never create plugin because if i didn’t create my own plugin for bbpress, during updates, all modifications will be a waste of time.
Thanks
@yolandal
You are in the bbPress plugin settings, but not the area I told you where it was.

Maybe you have a plugin that reorder/removes menu items where you cannot see it??
I’ve been working quite a lot on this threaded view format. This is coded all outside of bbpress, but uses many of bbpress’s functions.

Hi,
For your question about ‘arange my sub-forum verically instead of horizontal’, you can add this code in a child theme or your own plugin or functions.php file (Remove the // twice if you also want to hide the counters):
add_filter('bbp_after_list_forums_parse_args', 'bbppc_bbpress_list_forums' );
function bbppc_bbpress_list_forums() {
$args['separator'] = '<br>';
// $args['show_topic_count'] = false;
// $args['show_reply_count'] = false;
return $args;
}
For your plugins, you should activate them from your ‘Admin panels > Plugins > Installed Plugins’ and then you can start tuning the options (in most cases under ‘Admin panels > Settings’ or ‘Admin panels > Tools’.
Pascal.
Hello guys, i just installed bbpress on my theme called:hadron-multi-purpose-wordpress-theme and i am using wp 4.3.1 version of wordpress and latest version of bb press as well as at 15/11/15.
what i wan is that i want to arange my sub-forum verically instead of horizontal and also i have uploaded all the bbpress plogins such asbbpress new topic plugin,bbpress private replies,bbpress report contents,better bbpress signature. so how do i make them function?
Thanks
Hello Robkk
I made a new profile field which i not adjustable by the members self only admins.
And where do i need to put that line in bbpress-functions?
Regards Onno Nieuwenburg
I’ve hit a brick wall trying to figure this out.
This is what I intend to do:
1. Replace comments with bbPress Replies (can easily be done using with ‘bbPress Topics for Posts’ plugin)
2. Allow Guests/Anonymous replies (again done easily through Forums settings – “Anonymous posting”).
At this point I ran into problem. I only want guest/anonymous users to be able to post replies against “Topics for Posts” but not necessarily want them to create topic. bbPress doesn’t seem to have any settings for that.
So here I am, seeking community suggestions to do that. Help!
You can customize the <?php bbp_reply_author_link(); ?> and add more attributes to it like what is explained in this guide.
bbp_reply_author_link
The functions you found, show the default arguments set for the links.
bbPress 1x standalone is not going to work with any new WordPress plugins, unless you use custom code to allow it to somehow.
The plugin list labeled Legacy on this site, is for plugins that with bbPress 1x. The plugins section on this site, pulls plugins that work with bbPress on wordpress.org, are plugins that work with the plugin version of bbPress 2.
Your users do not really have to type a code?? They just they could just type regular smilies in text and it would output to the icon.
:) :( :P
Also I just told you, WordPress has smilies and emojis that you can use. The bbPress plugin can use WordPress’s library too. SO you may not need a plugin.
I am guessing you want something like a custom quicktag button that will show a dropdown of the smiles on your site. I can create a ticket for this if you want, and then we can see what the devs think of trying to add this to core.
@yolandal
If you have the bbPress plugin activated on your WordPress site.
Go to Tools > Forums, then select the Import Forums tab at the top, then in the forum platform dropdown select mingle forum.
@neoid
Well here is the trac ticket for Drupal Advanced Forum.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2756
Any help toward creating it/leading us to the right software to test out is greatly appreciated.
Apologies about bumping the thread. I was new to the forum. I tried BBPress as standalone first and that didn’t want to work with the WP plugins. I then made it part of a WP Website, and that didn’t work for the smiley plugin WP-Monalisa. Suggest that it should at the very least be removed from the bbPress list of plugins as it is listed here. AND it didn’t work for my stand alone Website.
I really don’t want my visitors to have to type a code first before I see the smiley. I want it as one would find everywhere else in real forums. Without a plugin. I also don’t want to code it. WordPress is supposed to be for people who don’t have to get under the dashboard, preferably stay out of it. I spent probably a few hours last night researching this and I know for a fact I’m not the only one asking WordPress and especially bbPress to add smileys to people who make posts without having to load a plugin for it – or in the very least create a dedicated plugin by the developer of the bbPress that works at the time of downloading the stand alone software or WP Plugin.
i found it here :
https://github.com/yehudah/Enfold—bbpress-RTL-Fix
mt theme is enfold.
and work like charm. and solved it
many many thanx
I already have WP Edit installed as I use it on the admin side. Is there any way to get the WP Edit buttons to show up in BBPress?
