its tricky to solve issues in premium themes.
first contact your theme authors support.
see if its only that themes issue
see if its a plugin issue , deactivate every plugin but bbPress if that solves it reactivate each one and try to pinpoint the one causing the issue.
if you havent created a bbpress.php file see if creating one fixes the issue.

@julianms so your issue is its hard to customize the Markdown plugin??
and you tried to see if you could customize it in the bbPress templates??
and you want to use Latex language in bbPress , i can test out some plugins in a minute and see how that works out.
but yeah the first two questions i’m not sure i had right it was pretty hard following your reply, you put a lot of personality in it.
download this .zip , extract the file loop-forums.php and copy it into a folder called bbpress in your child theme

need anymore help setting it up please reply back.
@netweb
Over on the ticket page (https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2523#comment:1) there is a ticket reporting a bug in which reply treading breaks pagination.
I was about to report the same thing, until I saw your reply explaining that disabling pagination is by design. I had just spent the better part of a morning trying to figure out what happened to the pagination on my site. Turns out I had activated the reply threading.
Several other members in this thread have asked for a solution. It’s not clear to me why it isn’t possible to paginate replies where threading is enabled. A solution in which a top-level reply, along with all of its threaded sub-level replies, is counted as a single reply for pagination purposes would be acceptable — certainly better than the present situation, where you can choose threading or pagination but not both.
And at the very least, this either/or choice needs to be made transparent to the user. Clicking an innocent looking check box on a configuration page shouldn’t disable another function on the same page without a warning. That’s just bad design. It wouldn’t be difficult, for example, to grey-out and disable the pagination controls when the threading check box is checked. That would get the message across.
If my skills were up to it, I’d offer to help. As it is, I can only offer my feedback.
As well is it possible to make Search widget available at ANY page? A looks it like forum search results (after searching something) or its just a regular search of WordPress?
the search widget should be able to handle being on different pages as long as you have it in your sidebar.
do you have an issue with it not being on some pages??
and the bbPress forum search that displays on the forum archive and also the search widget should only show results of bbPress related topics/replies/forums based on what you searched.
you can let the regular WordPress search show results of bbPress related topics/replies/forums if you follow this topic in the link.
Plugin, snippet, hack to include bbpress topics in wordpress search
Is it possible do detect in some ways that user subscribe only for particular “Forum” to receive ONLY noyifications (mail) for those “answers” …? Which function does it?
i havent found a plugin that could do this , so this might be some custom development so you might need to post another job in jobs.wordpress.net
You can try this plugin.

It is not exactly what you wanted though.
i think i found it, i had the bbpress templates copied to my child theme of twenty-fifteen and it worked, i then removed it and i saw exactly what you explained.
you have to copy the bbPress templates to a folder called bbpress in your child-theme
follow this document and see if it fixes your issue.

Problem solved, turns out it is the word “announce” that triggers the issue. Hope bbpress can find the real cause of this issue.
Thanks so much @korobochkin for sharing this in such detail! I’m going to test this out from start to finish on a 100% fresh bbPress, multi-site setup over the next few weeks. I’m thinking this is ‘finally’ a rock-solid sol’n to managing bbPress on multi-site, particularly in situations where the root site has no obvious visual/branding/etc relationship to the other sites on the network.
This sol’n looks very solid, much better than what I was previously doing with the Login With Ajax (lwa) plugin, wp-members (plugin) & hard-coded redirections (which while worked, seemed very ‘hacky’) & would not work with the [bbp_register] shortcodes, etc.
Thanks again Koyla!

it worked when i just tested it on my local development area.
see if its a plugin issue
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.
Which it wouldn’t do if I uncheck the “group forums” check box at bbpress settings.
can you explain what you mean by this ie
Dashboard>settings>…. etc.
Thanks
see if its a plugin or theme 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.
the bbcodes one i think you can deactivate the message in gd bbpress tools settings.
go to the bbcodes section find BBCodes New Topic/Reply Notice and deactivate that.
the unrestricted HTML content message shows up for only keymasters so its not really worth messing with since you are the only one seeing it.
@newco
oh ok the zoom is probably just the app or maybe even some phone animations.
and bbPress has custom post types forums, topics, and replies
custom post types are just like regular WordPress Posts
bbPress doesnt use WordPress comments , the replies are just like regular posts
Hi !
hepdoll said (some times ago) that she couldn’t find page-front-forums.php file.
I like bbPress, also Markdown Editor I’m using (WP plugin named : “WP-Markdown”, produced by Stephen Harris, as I saw there…). BUT I have problems with both bbPress and Markdown.
It’s too chaotic there, hard to customize…
(.. Now I’m writing here … Brrr, how ugly it is, and how slow the writing is)
WELL, I give the path @hepdoll .. and others, and there one can modify.
Suppose the WP blog is installed in folder BLOG and the “theme folder” (as it is written above in a comment) is named TH. Well, TH is useless here. So, the path :
../BLOG/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/extras/ and here are those files…
(Concerning Markdown, it’s SOOOOO difficult to modify. I’m “jealous” on those from SO = StackOverflow, who managed so well with their Markdown … and their Instant Preview show also Math formulas written in Latex (using MathJax), also instantly…)
I can only think that wishlist member or other factor is referencing an item within bbpress, and this has a different ID now that you have reinstalled.
I’d try going into all the settings within wishlist to see if you can identify !
By ZOOM I meant when I loading a Mobile Version of the BBpress site via WEBview option of Android App… and want to type something its zooming in)
One technical question:
BBpress have structure:
Forums AND Posts
is it like
Posts (in wordpress) and Comments (in wordpress)
hmm, not sure quite the best way to proceed.
So did bbpress change when the theme changed?, or why did you deactivate it? and did you deactivate because of THIS problem? or has this problem only occurred since you deactivated/recativated?
as far as I know it is a minimum of four
see
https://wordpress.org/plugins/network-username-restrictions-override/
Whilst this hasn’t been updated it probably still works !
Otherwise this is a wordpress thing rather than bbpress, so post in
Support Forums
Thank you so much for your reply.
1. I can see the forums from the backend.
2. Yes, I can view them if they are embedded.
3. If I try viewing a forum through its actual link I get the 404. The forum root page is displaying only the public forums but it was displaying all. I can view the forum if it’s embedded in a page.
I am logged in as the keymaster, other accounts are the same.
The problem with the theme was that a page’s layout had changed. BBpress was fine with the new theme until this morning when I deactivated and reactivated.
I have tried deactivating some of the plugins. I cannot deactivate Wishlist Member as it is an active membership site with paying customers so I can’t afford the down time.
If I switch the forums to public, they display correctly through the links and through the forum root page. This is what I have done for a temporary fix.
Is there anything else I can try or is my only solution here to disable wishlist member as well and take the site down when changing to a different theme?
Many thanks for your help.
Kind regards,
Steve
ok, lets break this down
A)
I was having trouble with a theme so I deactivated and reactivated bb press, since then all my “private” forums take me to a 404 page
and
However all the pages which I embedded the private forums via shortcode are still working
Can you explain further where you can and cannot see forums?
1. Are they visible from the backend
Dashboard>forums>all Forums and then ‘view’ a forum
2. On the ‘the pages which I embedded the private forums via shortcode are still working ‘ – so you can view here – yes?
3. when is the 404 page occurring – is it just the forum root page, and if so are these being listed but going to 404 when you click.
B) I presume you are logged on, at what level and can you try different levels eg participant, moderator and keymaster and tell us if this is different or the same.
c) You don’ tell us what trouble you were having with the theme, so it would be good to eliminate this and plugins so

Themes

Indeed, because this is considered a feature of base bbPress, subscription should just work. It doesn’t for anyone of my forum members or myself. This and a few other limitations are not inspiring my confidence to sustain using this forum structure.
Thank you Robkk for the help. I deactivated all the plugins a couple weeks ago and checked that, no help at all.
I had forgotten about the theme thing, I did as you suggested this morning and changed to 2012, no help, I clicked on the hardcoded sidebar link and it redirected it to a bad ugly link. Which it wouldn’t do if I uncheck the “group forums” check box at bbpress settings.
