Same issue. Deactivating all plugins except bbpress and changing themes does nothing.

The above errors are what I saw this morning. I deactivated all my plugins and narrowed down the two that when amr plugin and bbpress plugin are both activated i get the 500 error. the 500 error does not show when on or the other is deactivated.

I would appreciate your help.

Thank you!

Here is another thread about it- very recent

Email notifications not working; looking for help

Hey really pleased – I started learning bbpress when I was asked to convert a Snitz forum in an access database to bbpress – it took me 17 attempts before I got it all working, with numerous resets and deletes in between, so I know the bizz you get when it finally works !

Hopefully it will all settle down now !

[milenushka]

As I just said in another thread about this issue-

Just tested and no emails here either. This is strange cause I subscribed to one of the buddypress forums and I am getting emails when new topics are being posted.
Are they using another version of bbpress?

Robin,

I deactivated all the Plug-Ins except bbPress. No change, problem remains.

I switched to TwentyTwelcve theme and is whacked out the site but.. the forum links do seem to work.

So it appears that my child theme is somehow causing this. Maybe link styling/css? Or maybe something in the functions.php?

I’m unsure of how to trouble shoot this. Any suggestions much appreciated.

Thanks!

I did it!
The missing thing was “_”… When I used “wp_” as the Table prefix, it worked!
On the other hand, the process drove my host crazy and I hope that bbPress itself wont prove to be (how they like to put it) abusing the resources…

[Robin W]

Not sure if you mean a theme.

bbpress uses wordpress themes.

If you want to style your forums use

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

[Robin W]

bbpress uses custom post types, so forum posts will take the next number available in wp-posts list, along with posts, pages and other custom post types.

I’d suggest that if you’ve seen a big jump, then you spam filter is probably working hard, and that the missing numbers are spam comments in wordpress.

[Robin W]

ok, lets eliminate plugins and themes as the 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

[Robin W]

The profile name is actually the page header from wordpress, and you are not displaying these.

you could add it to the bbpress template for that page.

If you have ftp access and are able to copy and paste files, I’ll come back with how !

A question regarding bbPress as used by Educational institutions:

Can multiple teachers set up multiple students (thus classes) with each set of teachers and classes being private or not accessible by others except the teacher and the admin? Is that functionality in bbPress?

[markf1]

thank you for your reply Robin.

I tried what you suggested but it did not fix the problem. Do you have any other trouble shooting advice?

I need to get this working.

I originally had set this up over 1 year ago. The site owners wanted to have the forum but didn’t want to let anyone register or join. The forums and topics I put in worked correctly. I think that I had added the forum to the site nav menu as a category versus a page. Now that they want to enable the registration and etc I have followed the bbPress docs and made a page for the forum and I’m using that in the site nav menu.

I have tried making some new forums and topics (test 4) with this new config but neither the older forums/topics or the new test forums/topics seem to have the links working correctly. Not sure if this is relevant or any help in figuring this out.

thank you.

Thanks

[allmyhoney]

Thanks for the tips here Robin, unfortunately deactivating the plugins and then trying to install and activate the bbpress plugin once more does not generate any options menu under Settings or any admin menus such as Topics, Forums, Replies that you would usually see here. Any other ideas on this?

Hi,

I am a validator from the Romanian team. We completed the translations for BuddyPress and bbPress in Romanian language and I wanted to try a live test. When I have install the BuddyPress in the Romanian WordPress 4.1, the Update from Dashboard immediately notified me that I can install the translation for BuddyPress, and the installation of the Romanian translation went smooth. But after I install the bbPress, nothing happened 🙁 Is there an error?

Then I exported the .po and .mo files from the GlotPress project page (https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress), rename the files as bbpress-ro_RO.mo and also for .po and manually uploaded via ftp in the wp-content/languages/plugins/ folder. Now after refreshing the Dashboard screen I have the bbPress in Romanian.
But still – the description string that is displayed on the Plugin Screen “bbPress is forum software with a twist from the creators of WordPress.” is in EN. I tried to find it but it seems to be missing from the GlotPress collection for bbPress.
Can somebody fix this?

Many thanks and keep up the good work!

Adi

It doesn’t show all the forum categories. It’s showing up like a blog post/page instead.

If you happen to be using Genesis theme, there’s a plugin to fix the forum index (main forum page) not displaying the forums and topics – and looking more like a broken blog post page https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-genesis-extend/

[markf1]

I have a custom theme site, child theme of twentytwelve. The links for the various forums and topics do not seem to be pointing to the correct places (individual forum, topic).
http://www.telluridemountainclub.org/mtn-club-forums/

When I click on anyone of the forums I get the “Oh Brother! No forums were found here.” message
When I click on anyone of the topics I get the same “Oh Brother! No forums were found here.” message. I pretty sure that I have configured something incorrectly.

In the theme folder I have put the bbPress.php. Below is the code in that file. Does my problem lie with the bbPress code that I used in this file?

<?php

/**
* bbPress - Forum Archive
*
* @package bbPress
* @subpackage Theme
*/

get_header(); ?>

<div id="p7CCM_3" class="p7CCM01 p7ccm01-fixed-960">
<div class="p7ccm01-content-row p7ccm01-trans p7ccm01-dyn-img p7ccm-row">
<div id="mtn-main-column-page01" class="p7ccm01-2col-auto-column1 p7ccm-col">
<div class="p7ccm01-2col-auto-column1-cnt p7ccm01-content p7ehc-1">

<?php do_action( 'bbp_before_main_content' ); ?>

<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_notices' ); ?>

<div id="forum-front" class="bbp-forum-front">

<div class="entry-content">

<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'content', 'archive-forum' ); ?>

</div>
</div><!-- #forum-front -->

<?php do_action( 'bbp_after_main_content' ); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>


Any suggestions for getting this to work will be greatly appreciated.

Hello

I’m having issues with bbpress. In the control panel of WordPress – Replies, I can’t see spam folder even if I mark as spam some replies…

In topics tabs I CAN see spam folder

What can be the problem?

Thanks

Edit: I just write in the url bar xxx.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=spam&post_type=reply and the spam folder and spam replies are there, so I only I’m missing the SPAM tab in replies panel

Hi,

I am using bbpress 2.5.4 and Wordporess 4.1 and everything work fine.

Is it possibe to only display the reply form with the shortcode [bbp-reply-form] on any wordpress page or in my case at a course page from Learn Dash?
as shown here:
http://www.imageupload.co.uk/images/2015/02/08/shorcodeforminsidepage.jpg

If I reply now the “Error: Topic Id is missing” (German: FEHLER: Themen-ID fehlt) appears. Ok, that’s traceable because I dint’s say the reply form where it belongs to. But adding a Topic ID to the shortcode like [bbp-reply-form id=223] doesn’t seem to be supported and nothing appears.

Is there any way to do that? To say the reply form on any page in wordporess in which topic it should reply.

I don’t want to add new topics to a forum or let the user select a forum from the dropdown (as described in the bbpress shorcode codex). I just want to have the reply form (without the topic posts) inside my course pages and let the people reply.

Looking forward for any help or solutions.

Grettings,
Basti

I had this problem and there seems to be no easy answer – until I tried a different browser (!!)

In Firefox, the LINK button does not look the same as it does in CHROME!! In Google Chrome’s web browser you can check a box under the link title and the link will OPEN IN A NEW WINDOW! 🙂 That checkbox is not visible in Firefox.

If you’re running the latest version of bbPress (right now it’s Version 2.5.4), that should work!

@andreippo Do not change the plugin files (bbPress). Use MU plugins or write your custom plugin. I use MU. If you write custom plugin make sure what all hooks connects in the right sequence.

Do not change the attributes passed to functions (they are correct). You can change logic inside functions and change the headers, title, text of outgoing emails.

selena_network_ is my multisite prefix used in all functions at armyofselenagomez.com and selenaselena.ru.

It could be a theme or plugin issue

I’ve seen this with others, and it appears to be an issue going back 5 years with bbPress. When I have bbPress installed and activated, then I go to log into the admin dashboard, I am redirected to the front of the site. If I didn’t have the admin bar active, I would have to manually type in the browser address bar the dashboard url. This has been an ongoing issue and I am experiencing it yet again. It does this even with a default WP theme active and it does it locally on my XAMPP development, as well live.

So when bbPress is active, it does this redirect to the front of the site. This happens to me every single time I try it out when testing themes. I’ve even seen this happen with no other plugins, just bbPress and WordPress.

Any official solution to this? I know there are some who posted they cannot replicate the issue, but I have found a lot of people who experience the same issue. Would this be considered a bug?

My WP version is 4.1
bbPress version 2.5.4
Demo site link: HERE

My live site location is setup with WP as a network (multisite) to demo all my themes.

Thanks in Advance.

UPDATE: Forgot to mention this happens only when I log directly into the admin and not through the forum login.

[ebharding]

I just installed bbPress on a new wordpress site (4.1), seemed to work but there is no Forums link on the dashboard menu.
