It could be a 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.

you can also see if your theme is causing the issue but its probably more of a plugin issue..

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

if not come back

[Robkk]

there probably isnt a plugin like this for bbPress

if the plugin works for custom post types it might work??

you can contact the plugin developer to try to make it work on custom post types like the ones bbPress uses.

other than that i suggest you post a job at http://jobs.wordpress.net/ and see if a developer can custom develop this for you.

maybe using conditionals in the user profile templates (copy these to a child theme) would do it.

bbPress Conditional Tags

it might is_single_user() then array the guest accounts user ID to hide the user profile information

if the issue is only happening when only avada is the current theme then contact avada for help putting it back.

this should not be a problem with bbPress , but how you/something you installed changed the default from address that WordPress uses in the mail function.

by default its wordpress@(yoursite)

did you use a function/plugin to change the from address??

for registrations i use bruteprotect it helps out alot.

bruteprotect + akismet = <3

plus combine that with bbPress’s spam control functions (throttle posting/time to edit)

bbpress uses the comment moderation settings https://codex.bbpress.org/moderation-and-blacklisting/

so combine that with the blacklist.txt from here and you should be fine

My page at http://www.ncfblues.org is using the evolve theme. I have installed bbpress and created a forums page but the forums will not show. I can’t figure out why since the evolve theme claims to be 100% compatible with bbpress. Also, if the user clicks their name on the bbpress user profile link it’s not taking them to their profile page. I would greatly appreciate some help and guidance.

Hello,

when someone create a new post, my bbpress sent out an email to the subcribers of this Forum and to an email named noreply@radenavigator.ch. Why does this happen?
The Domain of my Forum is Tradenavigator.ch not radenavigator.ch. So the mail have to be noreply@Tradenavigator.ch. Why try bbpress to sent to this adress, I did not specified this.

Possible I made a mistake during Installation of bbpress and forgot the T, but I correct this. Can’t fount any wrong email in the Settings. Search the mql-Database for this string, nothing found 🙁

Can someone explain to me why this email was generated? And how can I solve this Problem?
thanks!

Gerd

bbpress works as a plugin to wordpress, so you set up a wordpress site and add bbpress.

[rbrynest]

Whenever a new user tries to register or login to my site, it just shows a white page with “blocked” written on it.

I am using bbPress forum plugin and have the “Allow anyone to register” checked.

My register page is using the register shotcode and as a login I use the (bbpress) login widget in a sidebar.

I have checked for conflicts by deactivated all plugins but bbpress and switched to the default twentytwelve theme to see if this fixes. Unfortunately with negative results.

Any idea what’s going on?

Hello

I was trying to edit the topic color in the bbpress.css but I was unable to do so. I need help in this.
The link is:- http://baaplog.hol.es/forums/forum/baap-bando-ka-ghar/
I want to do the color of XYZ topic to white.

My wordpress version is 4.1.1
My bbpress version is 2.5.5

Thanks

I am trying to set up a bbpress forum with users registering through the bbpress tweak widget. Works except – how do I ASSIGN a password to users instead of their being assigned a random one? My audience is a retirement center where people are less than computer savvy.

Akismet , bbPress is integrated with Akismet

[Helene N – Insdigbord]

Hey, I’m kinda lost between wordpress.org and bbpress.org, how those things work ?
What about our dashbord on the wordpress backoffice ?
Thanks

After upgrading to 2.5.5 of BBPress, I get a 404 error on the forums. The main page of the forums can be found, but the forums themselves cannot be found.
When I go from the admin panel and click “View forum”, this is also throws the 404 error.

[Robkk]

there is no shortcode for recent replies

you could try this??

https://wordpress.org/plugins/amr-shortcode-any-widget/

you could follow this tutorial to create a recent replies shortcode , i tried it and i didnt get the results i wanted before

http://www.daggerhart.com/bbpress-recent-replies-shortcode/

other things you could do is use get template part, then make a shortcode for a template

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_template_part

you could do some custom query in a new template , put a custom sidebar in the template and place the widget there.

then if you want follow this tutorial to use get_template with a shortcode

Oh, I suppose I should add here, for others, it was the bbPress Threaded Replies plugin. I would love to threaded replies, but that plugin was absolutely not working.

[Robkk]

follow this guide here is part 1

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

part 2 is linked toward the very bottom

but you can create a blank page and have it use the same forum archive slug as you set in settings>forums.

for example create a page called Forums , the end slug should be the default /forums and it should lead you to your forum archive.

an alternative is to use the forum archive shortcode

@danajoy2008

i see you said earlier you deactivated a few plugins

Try deactivating all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

other than that work backwards and see what you couldve done to cause this issue.

[inventorgeorge]

I’ve installed BBpress, now trying to figure it out. First off, I want to make changes to the appearance.
It appears to install in wp-content/plugins/bbpress – which makes sense. AS to a URL, it seems to be located at mysite.com/forums, but there is no such page in my WP page listings.
Can someone give me a source to go to to understand how to customize this? Please take note than I am essentially HTML illiterate. I need a cut and paste approach to making changes.
Thank you all in advance,
George

Ok, it looks like the problem is partly in our theme, but there is a change in 2.5.5 not mentioned in the changelog that is triggering the issue. It seems to be related to this:

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2607

We have a check on WP_Query->is_search that is returning true in the topic and reply loops when I believe it should be returning false. The resolution of the above ticket was supposed to fix this same issue…

Hi guys
I have bbpress installed and my main forum page has a rev slider on it and the shortcode to pull in the forum underneath.
However I want the header (or just the option for any image) to be output on the single forum pages.
Anyone know how?

You can see here with the header:
http://79.170.44.148/semsnet.co.uk/forum/

Bland/no image:

Thanks
