bbPress will “adapt” the profile style to your theme templates, so the installed theme must have a full-width template or you can use block layouts.

[Robin W]

I’d suspect That you are using one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
installation.

Install this additional plugin

bbp style pack

once activated, navigate to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.

In that tab, select

Enable Theme Support

and save

The forums should then display

Hi guys,

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction…

I’ve got 2 private forums on a bbPress install.

I’d like users to be able to select one of the two forums as part of user registration.

Is this possible? I’ve not come across any plugins that can achieve this.

Thanks in advance.

I (new to WP and bbPress) am trying to create forums and topics.
But always, both in my local env and a hosted env, they come up completely blank:
absolutely nothing on the page (as seen in browser page source.

I don’t doubt I’m doing something stupid, but I can’t see what. Any ideas?
I’m following the bbPress steps for creating forums and topics.

Site: dev.californiahcvtaskforce.org
A sample forum: http://dev.californiahcvtaskforce.org/forums/forum/this-is-a-forum-created-on-firefox/
bbPress 2.6.9

I have replicated this problem both on my local env (Windows, various browsers) and my hosted dev site.
I have tried various browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox)
I have run the Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin. The problem persists even if every other plugin is disabled.

Ideas?

Thanks, Stephen

What i still found out:
I activate (only) bbPress again and can reach our homepage.
Then i clear all caches from WP Fastest Cache v1.1.1 and i get the error.
Via FTP i deactivate bbPress without clearing the cache and i can reach the homepage

[filout]

I deactivated all bbpress related plugins too and got the same error. So in my opinion this error is not in the related plugins

[Robin W]

Via FTP i deactivated all installed plugins until the error came back and i found out, that this error comes from bbPress.

so with just bbpress, or with the bbpress related plugins you listed above?

Hello everyone,

our provider made a php update from v7.4 to v8.1 (because EOL for php v7.4) the days and after this our homepage wasn’t reachable with the error message in the topic.

Via FTP i deactivated all installed plugins until the error came back and i found out, that this error comes from bbPress.

We have installed:

• php v8.1
• WordPress v6.1.1
• bbPress v2.6.9
• bbp style pack v5.3.5
• bbPress Toolkit v1.0.12
• theme Origamiez v1.3.5

If you need further information please let me know. The forum isn’t public, only for members.

Regards

Filout

I’m getting a 502 error when attempting to use the search functionality. I’ve tried the typical stuff – deactivating all plugins except bbPress, resetting Permalinks, and repairing forums, but still getting the error.
The site is running the stock Astra theme; I tried switching to 2023 and 2022 but when I do, the forum root page doesn’t display. I can’t see it being a theme issue, though, not with Astra.
Any thoughts?

I had bbpress forums set up and working properly on my website until about 2 months ago when emails stopped being sent out with new posts. Now whenever someone posts something, my users do not get an email about it. No idea what changed or how to fix it. Any ideas?

[Robin W]

ok i’d suggest the standard fault finding to see where the issue lies viz:

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

Then come back

I have both bbp style pack and GD bbPress Tools installed could this be the issue?

I just paid for GD bbPress Toolbox Pro and it had a Fatal error trying to install so it didn’t get installed.

Should I remove these two plugins if I’m going to use GD bbPress Toolbox Pro?
bbp style pack REMOVE?
GD bbPress Tools REMOVE?

[AZPub]

I have the formatting and linking available on the BBPress but when adding links I still get the Error: Your reply cannot be created at this time.

Any ideas why these POSTS are being BLOCKED?

Hello bbPress Experts,

I just installed BBPress and created a New user account subscriber/participant. I tried to make my first POST to a Topic and got the following error:

Error: Your reply cannot be created at this time.

Here’s where I tried to make the post: https://www.taxfreehaven.info/forums/topic/recommend-new-topics-to-our-keymaster/

Any ideas what I may have done to Block making posts?

Thanks

[Robin W]

this might help explain, but of course doesn’t fix

Formatting of User Profile and Search Results pages

I need these pages to display correct as I’m going to start membership with all users being subscribed to all forums. Then I’m adding bbPNNS Memberpress bridge so they can manage forum/topic subs themselves afterwards.

[dozza]

Hi I have a Memberpress membership site which also uses bbPress. It uses a child theme of Divi from Elegantthemes. I’ve taken it to staging for some additional dev and have noticed that a collection of dynamic pages created by bbPress have a broken/incorrect layout like the attached.

The specific URLs i have found so far are:

…/forums/view/no-replies/
…/forums/view/popular/
…/forums/users/brian-sbm/
…/forums/users/username/topics/
…/forums/users/username/replies/
…/forums/users/username/engagements/
…/forums/users/username/favorites/
…/forums/users/username/subscriptions/
…/forums/users/username/edit/

php: 7.4.33
Wordpress: 6.1.1
bbPress: 2.6.9

[Robin W]

so can you just clarify that with just bbpress plugin, elementor and astra theme – this happens?

Hi! When I use the search function on the forums page, or try to visit a search URL, it goes to an infinite loop which crashes the site. I have the latest version of everything, wp, Elementor, Astra and bbpress. Any ideas?

[Robin W]

simply asking the same question twice will not get you any further, as I have said :

looks like you are using the cloux theme which claims to be bbpress integrated.

I suggest you reach out to the theme authors for support
