-i’m pretty sure that’s normal.
Troubleshooting
see here is a picture of my comment before i edited it.
I’m still testing, but I think this does it:
.activity-list li.bbp_topic_create .activity-content .activity-inner, .activity-list li.bbp_reply_create .activity-content .activity-inner {
display: none !important;
}
It shows bbPress forum titles in BuddyPress activity streams, but not content of the reply/post.
Hope this helps anyone who might need it.
When a user activates the plugin, they get three new items on their wp-admin board. Forums, Topics, and Replies.
Then in the tools section we have tools to solve basic issues with the plugin.
Finally in the Settings tab we have the Forums menu again to allow us to control basic settings of the plugin.
The problem with this layout… It’s TOO much and it’s very scattered. I would think the admin structure would be better if we took all the different items and put them under 1 category. Forum or bbPress whichever sounds better I guess.
From there we would have the main landing page which would either be the latest update information or the settings page.
Across the top we would have replies, forums, topics. (in any order I suppose). Then from there we would have the ability to create new or edit past pages in those categories.
Pros
– Much Cleaner administration board
– Easier to find what you are looking for.
Cons
– More clicking to get to certain sections.
Just an idea I had because WordPress administration boards seem to be getting cluttered these days.

However, the auto mentions only work from the text tab (not the visual), is this a bug?
i think the functionality to make the script work for the TinyMCE visual editor is not possible now. You see that we are basically just borrowing the script from BuddyPress to work for bbPress forums , and also that neither bbPress and BuddyPress have the visual editor in their default installations without some plugins or functions added.
It is possible to make it work for TInyMCE though, you would probably have to use some of the code of this auto-complete plugin for TinyMCE.
https://github.com/abrimo/TinyMCE-Autocomplete-Plugin
If you want to develop some custom functionality to make it work for your client ,only thing i can suggest is look over how this plugin is developed and see how they make it work for TinyMCE and of course add on to the script from the BuddyPress plugin.
wordpress.org/plugins/mentionable/
Other than that maybe decide to disable the visual editor for bbPress to make it work fine.
Also, it seems that some users get a notification, but some are not.
If you are talking about the notifications users get when @mentioned , then go to the BuddyPress Support forums for help on this.

Hello!
I’ve been reading all the topics on the forum and i found many similar issues to my problem, but now solution worked. I disabled all plugins and tried it with default theme also.
When someone subscribes(or creates a topic) to a topic or forum and then someone replys to it, no emails are being sent out to the guy who subscribed. Im using buddypress and bbpress newest version, and buddypress emails-like register, private message etc working, but noone of bbpress related emails are being sent out. I’m using WP SMTP now(before i was using WP MAIL SMTP, but then someone in this forum said if he changed to WP SMTP plugin it started sending, but didnt help for me), and test emails are being sent correctly also.(without any smtp plugin it doesnt work also)
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Daniel

ERROR: Are you sure you wanted to do that?
If you are localhost, then that seems to be the solution
We have bbPress integrated with BuddyPress. We have an educational based membership site which is lesson based. The member’s access to forums in bbPress is controlled by what lesson student currently has, so if a student isn’t on lesson 5 yet, they can’t see the forum for lesson 5. We use a membership script to accomplish these permissions.
When any student creates a topic/reply in bbPress, this shows in the activity stream of BuddyPress (personal and site-wide). Because we do not want students reading topics/replies of forums they don’t have access to yet, is there a method of hiding just the content of the topic/reply in the activity streams within BuddyPress?
I have all forums as private, but content of each topic/reply is still showing in BP activity stream.
We would love to keep the topic/reply titles and and participants in the activity stream, just not the content/excerpt.
I seen the “bbp-reply-content” div class in bbPress. Is there a method of maybe hiding only this in BuddyPress? Thanks for any suggestions.
My guess is that this has to do with the forums being imported from phpBB? Since import, when a new topic is created or replied to, I notice it’s freshness is accurate.
So I guess I’ll just hide the freshness until we get some more activity (just so members don’t get confused). I’m still very very happy with bbPress!
Hello
I installed Wpress in a Windows host, with IIS and I am having this message for create new topics and reply existing topics on bbPress Plugin for wordpress.
My wordpress is the 4.2.2 and the bbPress plugin is 2.5.6.
Someone could help-me? I did search for a long time in the web but didnt find solution for this.
Thanks for all!
see
bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-reply.php
I got it !
sometimes, Apache exited with higher Status number example :
[Sat Apr 18 00:02:05.423769 2015] [mpm_winnt:notice] [pid 5900:tid 404] AH00428: Parent: child process 5032 exited with status 3221225725 — Restarting.
Google gave me a hint : write this code in your httpd.conf (that’s for Windows)
<IfModule mpm_winnt_module>
ThreadStackSize 8888888
</IfModule>
It works now, like a charm 🙂
explanation : the stackSize in Windows is defaulted at 1MB, and it seems that bbPress Import need much more…. This line push the limit to more than 8MB. That’s all.
WAMP does NOT show this mpm_winnt_module in the list of loaded modules, I guess it is because it’s a default Apache Windows module ( http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mpm_winnt.html )
Ah, I put first only the line “ThreadStackSize 8888888” (without ifModule) to be sure that it is taken into account. If the module was not mounted, Apache would have wrote it in apache_error.log. It should work on every windows normal installation
can somebody tell me what the bbpress function call is to add a reply to a forum? something like
bbpress_post($postTitle, $postContent, $postMeta)
or whatever
thx.
Hi all,
I’m wondering how topics and replies get liked to users during import. Is it simply by ID, or by email?
I.e you import 10,000 users. This completes. Then it moves on to topics, importing them and assigning them to the appropriate user. Does it take the user ID from the old forum software and compare to that stored for the imported user, or does it match via email address (which should be unique of course).
I ask this because I’m considering importing topics/replies from 4 external forums in to a single bbpress install. There will really be no way to match up which topic/reply should be assigned to which user via ID, but it would work if matching via email.
Thanks in advance!
I have spent days trying to only show the topics created by the user. Using the user-topics-created.php and my own template. All my result shows is “This user has not created any topics.”. What am I missing?
My goal is to create my own wordpress page template to show the user’s created topics without having the entire bbpress profile menu.
Please help!
Hi Robkk,
Thanks you for your response. I tried what you instructed me but that didn’t worked out because I am using a framework, Genesis framework.
I resolved the issues by just installing this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-genesis-extend/ and it worked like a charm! 🙂
Thanks for the tip!
Yes I pinned-it down to a conflict with one plugin, Easy Digital Downloads – Currency Converter.
I’ve just notified the plugin authors on their site.

bbPress does not add custom profile fields
could you be using BuddyPress also??
Me too, it’s very annoying to connect many times every day to access WP Admin and BBpress …
im using bbpress to do this website. Im on Users-> Profile Fields
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original, so you can amend this one
yes you would just put that code in form-topic.php
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-topic.php
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-topic.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/form-topic.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
you can then look at how the form does this, and put the appropriate lines in.
with code anything is possible !
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
line 27
I want to use post tag in topic tag. I do not want to create all tag again
how to do that?
wordpress v4.1.1
bbpress v2.5.6
bbpress uses custom post types in wordpress.
Every wordpress post gets a unique number, as do edits and other stuff.
so if you posted a forum topic it might get say id #1000, then a wordpress blog would get the next number #1001, the say a reply to a different forum topic orum topic #1002, then if you create a new page that would get #1003, then the first response the actual forum topic would get #1004
You’d need to write a whole new numbering system to make your request work !
@Robkk
thank you for your answer.
I already installed bbpress v2 wordpress plugin on my wordpress blog, I only need to find out how to keep the same url for my forum when I import it.
my blog:
http://www.site.ext/blog/
my forum:
http://www.site.ext/forum/
How do I instruct wordpress, when I use the import tool, to keep the old url for the forum (www.site.ext/forum/ instead of http://www.site.ext/blog/forum/)?
Thank you.
