Hi blacklavaa
If you just use bbPress, you should have normal wordpress users. So on your dashboard, you should find them under ‘Users’.

Hi peoriachuck,
Thanks for solving most of your own issues 🙂
Are you a keymaster when you try to view the trashed topics ?
Who can view the trash is depending on the permissions you have. Check ‘view_trash’ on https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/before-installing/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/

It is a common issue where CSS for WordPress comments reply link has conflicts with actual reply posts in bbPress.
Copy this custom css in your child themes style.css file or in anywhere you can put custom css like in a custom css plugin.
#bbpress-forums .reply {
font-size: inherit;
padding: inherit;
position: relative;
right: inherit;
top: inherit;
}
Hi all. I am running WP 4.3.1, bbPress 2.5.8 and a custom theme at http://www.skywayacquisition.com. (I am not sure how to turn off the theme to test this fault with a bundled theme like Twenty Twelve…)
My forum is on a membership access site through Paid Memberships Pro.
In my forum, when doing a search in the forum area, the function recognizes that there are results, and says something like “Viewing 3 results – 1 through 3 (of 3 total)” and then shows me the “author” and “search results” headers and footers, but no content in between.
Can anyone help in a way a relative novice can relate?
If need be, and someone can help me understand, I can create an account to allow visibility to the site so you can see the actual situation.
OK…partially resolved.
There were 4 replies that were causing the problem. The only way that I could view them was to visit the forum, click on my profile (name/photo) in the forum and view created replies for my account. From there I “trashed” the four replies that were not assigned to a topic or forum, and the Internal Server Error went away. That part is resolved, although there seems to be a bug associated with this.
While troubleshooting the above mentioned problem, I tried repairing bbpress via the Tools>Forum screen. I repaired every item in the list….and now the problem I’m having is that none of the forum Participants can see any of the Topics in the forum. Administrators can, Participants cannot. I’m now trying to resolve this. Any ideas would be appreciated! Thank you.
Hi, I would like to know how I can view the email addresses of all the members who register to be a part of my bbpress forum.
If you always get Internal Server Error, then you might have a conflicting plugin or theme. Try to disable some.
For the count you:
– could use the bbPress repair tools for recalculating
– need to be sure these are not hidden or marked as spam, but counted anyway.

I’m currently developing an iOS app along with a WordPress site with the bbPress plugin.
I would like to allow any user to easily post links with custom schemes in the forum like :
myappname://badebidobudy/fdjlkqsfj
I saw that in bbPress an admin can indeed post a link and its href is not interpreted so it remains :
href=”myappname://badebidobudy/fdjlkqsfj”
and bbPress tells me why :
> Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML content.
But when an anonymous user wants to do this, the custom scheme is removed and the resulting a tag href is :
href=”//badebidobudy/fdjlkqsfj”
So my question is : how can I configure (or tweak) WordPress or bbPress to at least accept my url scheme or even recognize a raw link with a custom scheme ?
Hi all,
Running WP 4.3.1 and BBPress 2.5.8
The issue: Forum replies appear above forum content in this theme (have tested using vanilla 2015 theme and there’s no problem). The partial solution is to play with CSS.
I’ve got a CSS plugin (Simple Custom CSS) and making changes in there, and I’ve managed to get the reply content to appear in almost the right place using:
ul.forums li {position: relative;}
However, this means the content appears above the bb-reply-header DIV.
Any help appreciated 🙂
Thanks

Well if you see the error message in a red notice on your bbPress forums, it is definitely bbPress pushing the error.
@casiepa It’s too late for that. But I’ll try to disable each nonce check manually (from the theme)
@robkk This bug is unrelated to “restore trashed topics” and I don’t know how to reproduce it. But I’d close this thread since the nonce functionality is part of WordPress and not bbpress, right? And also the existence of the nonce check is responsibility of the theme, right?
Thanks, both of you.
@mica123
You need to start seeing if other parts of your site is being cached and it is not just the bbPress portions, if it the bbPress portions make sure to see if it is just you must be logged in notice or other areas like the user’s profile pages to see if it is related to @gperez-tl’s issue.
You may need to create me a test user account so that I can confirm of the issue you are getting, and to also test other areas the cache issue might be present.
@gperez-tl
The fix will make it into 2.6 or earlier I bet.
Haven’t tested the latest patch but I can assume that the issue could be resolved.

@gperez-tl
Post the code you are using for the custom howdy message in the toolbar. I do not think this would cause an issue but just double checking.
Do the same thing with the profile menu items code.
Just know that you said these were bbPress’s issue although the menu system and the WordPress toolbar are both part of WordPress. The registered menu and menu location are your theme. I do not know how bbPress could cause an issue with this.
So, (visiting any author’s profile and) clicking on some of these items will show the author’s data, while clicking in others will retrieve current user profile data or something.
Wait so clicking on anyone’s frontend forum profile could show the current users profile for some reason, or is it just the menu links as you stated.
You did not edit the user profile templates heavily? you said you are receiving issues with users profiles.
IF you haven’t already try to track down what is causing the issues you are getting. Since you have a custom theme see if the issue persists in a default theme like twenty twelve, deactivate all plugins but bbPress.
Troubleshooting
Your profile pages shouldn’t just be magically be cached by bbPress.
You may need to create me a test user account so that I can confirm of the issue you are getting, and to also test other areas the cache issue might be present.
Sorry for the bump. But this is happening still.
Wordpress version 4.3.1
bbpress version 2.5.8
Hi. Yes, I edit a file, add a blank line or something and save. Files in my case are:
user-profile.php
user-replies-created.php
user-subscriptions.php
etc
I don’t know if the names are the conventional names or just the ones my theme set.
Anyway there’s no real need to do this. Reloading with ctrl+F5 usually do the trick.
I don’t have a real solution yet. And I’m not sure if the problem is with bbpress or wordpress. Or with something else. But I know wordpress use to cache stuff. That’s clear when you develop a plugin and things just don’t change (unless you add rules to .haccess).
There is a shortcode you can put in a page to allow users to create forums.
[bbp-forum-form]
Shortcodes
You can also use this PHP code snippet, and place it in your child themes functions.php file or in a functionality plugin to allow admins/keymasters to create a forum right from their bbPress forum profile.
function ntwb_bbp_forum_form() {
if ( bbp_is_user_home() && current_user_can( 'edit_others_forums' ) ) {
echo do_shortcode( '[bbp-forum-form]' );
}
}
add_action( 'bbp_template_after_user_profile', 'ntwb_bbp_forum_form' );
To delete and edit you have to do it in the backend for now. There are plans to add more frontend moderation tools though.
I got both BuddyPress and bbPress installed in my WP. I’ve tried to figure out how to customize and remove it. But don’t seem I am able to.
@sey88
You just talking about the default WordPress registration process right?? If you have BuddyPress installed also, this has an activate link process too. I am just making sure since BuddyPress is one of the most used plugins in conjunction with bbPress.
As @casiepa said it is possible to use a frontend form plugin to just get around this whole process activation process.
You can also create categories then add your forums under that by setting the parent of the forum as the chosen categories.
To have a better layout use this loop-forums.php file here.
https://github.com/robkk/bbPress-Hierarchical-Forum-and-Category-Layout
Download it and place it into your child theme in a folder called bbpress.
Hello Everyone,
I have a site were users can add topics on Forums. But is there a way that the Admin adds/edits/delete new Forums on the front-end?
Hello! I have been looking for a lot of time but still could not get aware of how to make layout of my forum hierachical just as other forum plugins have? Old methods that were published are no more valid. I just need to make my subforums hierachical not amassed in lines. Who could help me?
Hi sey88,
This seems wordpress related and not bbpress related.
On my site I have the ‘Theme my login’ plugin installed where in the ‘Moderation’ part I have chosen not to send the email verification.
