Thanks Robkk,
Do you know which tables belongs to bbpress?
Yep, while it doesn’t do it when I post, it does print the <p> tags for at least some users–and that part is weird. It looks like this:
<p>I completely support a focus on...
I have the plugin “bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab” running. I haven’t been able to test yet, but the client really does need that full visual editor for their users, so I hope it’s not that.
I did double-check the plain text filter. Maybe there was a caching issue with respect to the filter? I emptied all the caches just to be sure.
Hello, after updating to WordPress 4.3.1, I’ve noticed that there is no content area for topics in my 2.5.8 bbPress Forum. What gives?

Thanks for your help!
Nevermind I think you have to update to 4x, the other importer is for a much older version of vBull.
Make sure to have a backup saved before doing an import. You may try doing a backup on a test server also.

Import Troubleshooting
The links are like this because that is how it is in your theme.
You can try this custom css to remove the underline. Place the custom css in your child themes custom css or anywhere else you can place custom css like a plugin or theme.
.bbpress .post-content a {
text-decoration: none !important;
}
You should be able to delete any imported users.
Deleting bbPress
If it is a test server, I guess you can always manually delete data using phpMyAdmin and start fresh.
You can try Rating Manager by Elementous. It supports bbPress and you can add star ratings to every topic. It’s a very powerful rating plugin.

You should try Rating Manager by Elementous. https://www.elementous.com/product/premium-wordpress-plugins/rating-manager/
It’s compatible with bbPress, buddyPress and WooCommerce, but Rating Manager is a premium WordPress plugin.
Since you are not very confident with PHP you can just install this plugin.

There was an additional sub menu?? Was it the forum moderators menu??
Hopefully you are not running the alpha version on a production site.
bbPress is installed and activated now after a manual installation??
Wait so
with bbPress, Akismet, and BuddyPress activated it does not work
but does work when Akismet and BuddyPress are activated
and it does work if only bbPress and BuddyPress are activated?
Hi Rob,
I have single site installation only. I could try it with Chrome and Firefox and it was same in both browsers.
But I tried to install bbpres 2.6 alfa yesterday. After installation same problem exist. Today afternoon I tried to look once again to WordPress dashboard and there was added menu item Forum with submenu Settings where I could setup bbpress.
I don’t know how it make. I didn’t make anything after this unsuccessful installation. It seems bbpress is OK now.
Try to see that you are placing widgets in the right sidebar for it to show on the bbPress pages.
IF you want full-width forums.
Try this custom CSS to see if it fixes the empty space and makes your forums actually full width. Place the custom css in your child themes style.css file or in a custom css plugin.
.bbpress .sidebar {
width: 0;
display: none;
}
.bbpress .postcontent {
width: 100%;
}
This has happened to a couple users before, so it may be a bug in bbPress that needs to be reported now.
Just to make sure that it is just bbPress causing the issue.
Make sure you have already done most of these troubleshooting steps. Also try in a different browser and see if it helps any.
Troubleshooting
And please answer these questions also.
Is this a single site installation or multisite?
If it is a multisite installation, what is your current user role Admin or Super Admin?
After all this I have to collect all the topics on here about the issue in the last year.
Did you try refreshing your permalinks??
Navigation Links Return 404s Errors
Also make sure it is not a plugin conflicting with bbPress or your current theme/a code snippet in your theme causing the issue also.
Troubleshooting
On this site it is custom links in the WordPress toolbar.
You can follow this tutorial to add custom links to the admin bar.
http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-custom-shortcut-links-to-wordpress-toolbar/
There is also this plugin that can add links above forum pages.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-login-register-links-on-forum-topic-pages/
And also you could just place the bbPress login widget in a sidebar you have and input additional authentication links in the widgets input fields.
Actually, I can see that this bbPress support forum created a submenu showing the login, register and lost passwords links at the top of the index page. So I take it that this was done with the help of CSS.
I know that similar questions have been asked many times – unfortunately I have not found any satisfactory answers – I very much hope for your help as follows:
I set up Forums on full page widths without sidebars.
I would like to have the login, register and lost passwords links at the top of
the forum page the same way as bbPress Support forum has – I am not referring to menu links.
Can you please help?
Many thanks.
I am afraid that I have many problems finding my way around bbpress.
One of the things I didn’t realise is that anyone who registers is actually
going into the list of users in WordPress. How do I know that they are all participants?
If there are many users the list will be very long which is rather worrying.
I also would like to know how I assign the moderator role to a user? I can’t find anything about it anywhere.
I would very much appreciate your help.
Many thanks.
Hey buddy
I have bbpress install with buddypress in my WordPress, all with the latest version as at the time of writing this post.
My forums and topics redirects to 404, page not found when my users clicked on any of them, except the forums that are part of the buddypress group the said user is a member of.
As an admin, I can view all of them the normal way without any form of restriction and redirection both at the front and back end.
Even forum category that is the mother of some forums and topics are been redirected to 404 page even if the user has a forum he/she has an access to.
I have followed some directives of people on similar cases, but none works for me, wp-admin –> tools –> forum and recalculated everything there, and went to wp-admin –> tools –> buddypress and recalculated everything.
I went to permalink and update it, but nothing seems to be working.
Please some help.
Hello,
I have searched all over trying to find out how to fix my issue. The website is generalrealestateacademy.com. I have bbpress and buddypress installed on the Nimva theme. I was trying to get a sidebar working on bbpress but was unsuccessful. Now, there is a space to the right like a sidebar is trying to show, but it doesn’t show. Sidebars work on any other page besides the forum.
My first goal is to reclaim the space to the right of the forum so that it is full width. My next goal is to get a sidebar working. (I have tried content aware, bbpress wp tweaks, and other plugins.
I just split your reply into a new topic because your reply is very specific with using the divi theme and reply threading feature in bbPress.
I am aware of this issue. There is a conflict with a script in the Divi Theme some custom-js.js script that holds carousel/slider javascripts and it is conflicting with bbPress’s reply threading.
A simple and fast fix, I guess would be to de-enqueue the script on any bbPress related pages.
Contact Divi Support first about the issue to see if they have a fix handy or are aware of the issue.
Hi bo-oz,
I don’t know what could cause the issues (probably another plugin), but for your last line: we also use WPML and bbpress works fine.

Hi,
I tried installing bbPress, after activation I was redirected to a page which told me “you have insufficient rights”. After a refresh, the plugin was activated but nothing changed in the menu (no formums menu option, also no settings -> forums was added). I tried deactivating -> activating and completely re-installing the plugin, but nothing worked so far.
I use wordpress 4.3.1 and the latest version bbPress to automated plugin install.
I’m also using WPML, could that be causing conflicts?
