No, bbpress is up and running – just the search with the above code added to my functions file no longer shows bbpress topics as part of the results. Will click on the recommended fix links above to see if either fix will bring the results back.
Thanks & Happy Easter!
Ciao,

that’s not standard bbpress behaviour – breadcrumbs just navigate within the same window.
It could be a theme or plugin issue
Plugins
Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
Hi there, could someone help me figure out where to stop my bbpress topic and breadcrumb links from defaulting to target=”_blank”?
When I’m on my forum archive page — or anywhere else on the site — everything is fine, but once I start navigating to topic pages, all of the links start popping up in new windows: http://pafoic.org/forums/
I’m running WordPress 4.1.1 with a Customizr Pro child theme, and bbPress version 2.5.6
I feel like the solution should be somewhere in plugins > bbpress > includes > topics but I’m just not finding it. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Hey – thanks for at least looking into it. If that’s the worst limitation of bbPress, I have no complaints!
I was just asking here because I thought there might be a simple solution. I guess I could hire a coder and post the fix back here.
can you carry out the steps in

then come back
that was 7 years ago when bbPress was not a WordPress plugin.
just use any normal WordPress theme.
search bbPress compatible WordPress themes in google to find one that should would work great.
or search bbPress in the wordpress add new theme area in the backend of wordpress.
This plugin will help styling bbPress on any WordPress theme though.

In this topic i read there is an admin area:
How I change theme?
I mean bbPress forum theme only.
great – hopefully a later version of bbpress will fix this
@danajoy2008
oh yeah sorry , put it anywhere you can add Custom CSS.
your child themes style.css
a standalone custom css plugin
jetpack custom css module
you can also place this into your bbpress.css file that should be in your child theme in a CSS folder.
I have also an other request from them that want a like button just as on Facebook
Is that possible with in bbpress?
i already replied to your other topic about a facebook like button.
How can I get a "like button" ala Facebook within bbpress
I taught you where saying that @mentions only worked for buddy press
And use bbpress
it should work for both.
When you have installed both on your site..
If you only have bbPress installed you do not get @mentions.
If you only have BuddyPress installed you get @mentions.
Is buddy press the same?
They both improve your community.
One is just forums (bbPress)
the other is basically a lot features a social network usually has (BuddyPress)
How is buddy press related to bbpress
Same Lead Developer and both provide community functionality.
Can you explain for a none techie what I must do and install
To make tagging work on my bbpress forum
Fist make sure you have installed both BuddyPress and bbPress then go to a topic and try to @mention someone. If it shows up in a link its working on your site.
Tell me if you understand all of this.
I only have 1 registration form. Only 1. the bbp register short code has been deleted but I am still getting the emails from that.
could it be spammer going to this?? instead of the bbPress one that you already deleted.
yoursite.com/wp-login.php?action=register
I can’t imagine any of these being real since the old registration is gone.
yeah you might as well turn registration off til you get sorted out on this issue.
I can’t find where to deactivate registration.
go to settings > general uncheck Anyone can Register
If I deactivate registration, will that affect the VFBP
when you uncheck anyone can register it should disable this until you activate it.
As long as you use quality plugins for image upload for bbPress like this one you should be fine.

hosting images elsewhere should help on server disk space though, well unless you have a CDN.

Thank you for your patience
I think I don’t understand it

@pazzaglia1
is it just the search or is it bbPress entirely??
As long as you have the latest bbPress too it should work fine.
usually users that have problems with bbPress when upgrading to WP 4 , we usually recommend these two plugins to help solve their issue.
bbpress wp4 fix
bbpress wp4 fix2
you can also go through the normal troubleshooting to identify an issue.

@bbc
I already told you how to make @mentions work for bbPress.
Is there anything confusing you from what i said , or do you want @mentions without BuddyPress??
@garrett-eclipse
there are likely other people who have posted a topic like this one from 3 years ago.
you can try the code the user placed below for the bbPress custom post types and see if it works.
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-does-blog-become-current_page_parent-with-custom-post-type
try this example, change the colors/remove the text decoration to your liking.
.bbpress bbp-topic-content a,
.bbpress bbp-reply-content a {
color: blue;
text-decoration: underline;
}
Thanks for your answer. And how can i change themes? I got some really nice themes for bbPress.
@geekserve
what looks awful?? the you are already logged in status?? or how the login widget displays the avatar and profile links if you are logged on.
But to really customize how you want the bbPress login widget to be , the easiest thing to do is create a new widget and base most of the code off of the original bbpress login widget.
bbPress doesnt have a specific admin area for itself, it basically just uses the existing WordPress admin area.
you can,
create all the forums in the backend.
create some topics/replies in the backend but for me its better to do it frontend.
go to the settings menu go into the bbPress settings by going to settigns > forums in the backend of WordPress.
manage users in the backend.
use the addditional tools in the tools section, its named forums.
use the moderation and blacklisting settings in settings > discussion.
if you need help trying to find something else reply back.
BuddyPress should have this feature , bbPress is also compatible with BuddyPress.

Hello!
Where can i find the admin area in bbPRESS forum?
View post on imgur.com
I am admin/keymaster.
I tried with twentyfifteen and it still looks the same. Im not sure if i understand it clearly, but if yes, then: If i set it not equal then in the breadcrump it will show the bbpress’s virtual page for the forum root-and in the url also, and not my real wordpress forum page i created with shortcodes.
