bbpress works with a default theme.
If you have done a fresh install to a default theme with no other plugins, then it should work.
Beyond that I cannot help further – sorry
Hi,
I’m writing in to check on a conflict that surfaced when I installed both News SEO & BBPress plugins. Apparently the message “Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in /home/(url name)/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/functions.php on line 1446″ came out on the front and back end of the website. Can I check if the plugin has any effect on it?
Thanks!
I have a website where I need to keep some page visible just for some kind of users. So I have installe UAM User Admin Manager Plugin to my website. I have created a group of “special member” that can access everything. On every page or post I can setup the group “access”.
I can do the same with forum, topics and replies. But even if I select this option everythin is always visible to everyone. I cannot understand why. Can you help me please?
here you can see the forum in my website
Forum ALAO
and here a page for a restricted special member
Bollettino n.2 Apr/Giu – 2015
Thank you!

ok, I’d suggest you start again.
Delete the bbpress database by :
Dashboard>tools>forums>reset forums
then deactivate and delete the plugin
Then reinstall
Raw SQL, yep.
Here it goes:

That’s not all, – i still have to implement a karma system to bbpress and also import it, and still have to import private messages. If you will be so kind to point me, what i’ve missed (and that cause error i’ve been experiencing), i appreciate it so much )
Yes. i use a new bbpress installation (2.5.7)
Thanks, this definitely helps get me on the right path. Since I am just removing the form to make new topics on the one forum, I don’t even need to worry about user permissions, I can block it for even the keymaster since I am using the bbPress Topics for Posts plugin which I have set to automatically make a news topic when I post a new blog post to the main page, which is all I need.
I am still running into issues though. bbp_is_single_forum() doesn’t seem to take any arguments. I started looking at other possibilities and found the bbp_forum_title() function which returns “News” or whatever the name of my forum is, but it seems to only print it to screen and not give it to me in anyway I can actually do a string compare. Same thing with bbp_forum_id(). bbp_form_forum_title() and other things I’ve tried seem to return nothing. I’ve tried using strip_tags and trim but it still just prints to screen and ignores my if statement.
This would be an ideal solution if I could just get the title string and do a string compare against “News” which then hide the form. I’m pretty new to php. I’ve got quite a bit of programming experience in other languages though, esp Java. So It’s likely I am just making a simple mistake with syntax or something.
Thanks again. I’ll keep experimenting and see if I can figure out anything.
is this a new bbpress installation?
@jbeagley
Make sure to wrap code with the code button on bbpress.org
I checked your custom CSS on your site.
Sometimes CSS after a CSS statement is not complete will not work.
For example make sure all of your statements have the
#selector .selector { <-- make sure you have this on all of your CSS statements
property: value;
} <-- make sure you have this on all of your CSS statements.
ok, so with all plugins except bppress deactivated, and a default theme such as twentyten you cannot create new topics at the front end – yes?
If so is this a new bbpress installation?
I have had no problem editing the appearance of the forum until I tried to change the background color of the current navigation link on the user details page… its the list of link including profile, topics started, replies created, etc…
I have been editing it with the ‘custom css’ feature of my theme… this is what I added
#bbpress-forums #bbp-single-user-details #bbp-user-navigation li.current a {
background-color: #12681A;
}
I grabbed that code from the ‘inspector’ tool using F12 in my browser… just changed the color code… but is not affecting the page…
any suggestions why this particular element isn’t being affected?
wordpress 4.22

yes, i tried it. I can create new topics or replies in my Back-End, but i can’t do it in my Front-End side. In bbpress forum i’am a keymaster
This topic is a bit old now but if you’re still looking for an answer (or if helpful to other people)
Here’s some info that should help:

This sounds like something to look at in your theme. I’m not sure bbpress has thumbnails/featured images on topics by default?
Ask your theme author or let us know what theme you are using and hopefully we can find out more.
This plugin is great (from what I’ve seen so far while testing)
Thanks for posting the link.
I hope this sort of feature can become part of the core bbpress plugin in future.
Cool, I didn’t know that.
@shanesams There probably is a way to code this. I’m succesfully using the Ajax replies plugin mentioned here:
Has anyone used the bbpress ajax replies plugin??
So perhaps that could be customised to work with an activity style layout? Just needs someone with some bbpress smarts to take a look at it 🙂
It does seem tricky to set this sort of thing up (hopefully to be improved in future versions of bbpress?).
One way to do this, although not the most robust option, would be to simply hide the new topic form for everyone but keymasters/admins when viewing that particular forum.
I will assume you are accessing your new topic form when viewing the individual forum (it’s trickier if you are using the new topic form where you choose which forum to post to instead of/as well as individual forms in each section. This is what’s used here on the bbpress.org forums for example. If you need a solution for this as well let us know, I’m sure someone can explain how to do that)
This is just off the top of my head and not tested (hopefully someone more experienced will be able to advise better) – in wp-content/your-theme/bbpress/form-topic.php (create this file if it’s not already in your theme, copy the original from wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/
At the top of the file, after this code:
<?php
/**
* New/Edit Topic
*
* @package bbPress
* @subpackage Theme
*/
?>
Add this code to check if you are in your news forum (here I’ve used forum id ‘5’ as an example, you’ll have to find the specific id for your forum) and if the user is an admin (there may be a better to do this using the keymaster role instead of the usual WP role but I don’t know about that):
<?php if ( bbp_is_single_forum( '5' ) && current_user_can( 'manage_options' )) : ?>
Then at the very end of the file close the if statement by adding this:
<?php endif; ?>
That should work as far as I know but I am still finding my way with bbpress so can’t say for definite. Good luck!
Thank Robin W for your link. I do all instructions in this topic but the issue is not fixes. I disable all my plugins except bbpress, also i change my default template for wordpress default theme but i get same error.
You don’t have another solution ?
Hello, this is my second ost in this forum. I install bbpress plugin in my wordpress website and when i want to post topics or replies in my Front-End i get ERROR : Are you sure to do that ?.

Hello,
My search function didn’t work for a good while (a search was redirecting to the homepage), and I realized today that it was an issue with buddypress or plugins I used with buddypress.
Now that I disabled Buddypress, I can now search the forum again but unfortunately, the search results are protected by a password.
I use s2member to protect one of my forum, so it is only accessible to subscribers, but all the other forums are opened. I tried to lift the s2member block of the subscribers forum but still the same thing happens anyway.
I also tested the issue with twenty fifteen and the same thing happened.
I am using bbpress Version 2.5.7, WordPress Version 4.2.2

Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂
