Thank you @tobyhawkins! Yes I have gone through that link, and it almost works…
There is a slight caveat: the searches made on private Buddypress group forums do not return results if the user is below the “bbp_moderator” level. All such users see is the dreaded “Oh bother! No topics were found here” message.
My guess is that default bbpress search (which sevenspark’s method also employs) behaviour is currently set to not return results from private Buddypress forums for (say) a “bbp_participant” level user.
The method does however seem to work fine if one is only using sitewide forums and not Buddypress group forums.
Its a very useful trick, nonetheless!
I should mention that it still doesn’t work when I delete the child theme bbpress overrides.
I haven’t tried this out, but it looks like it might be what you’re looking for.

Thank you but nope. Still no luck. See eg. http://pupyshevo.hol.es/forums/forum/11/
Maybe some debugging? You can use my credentials on this test site, would be glad to help! Let me know and thanks again for proper support!

PS: flushed permalinks with default and then with postname. Also reactivated both bbPress and the plugin. Still believe it isn’t really plugin’s fault, but me doing smth wrong…
I’m using the following in my theme’s functions.php, although for some reason is_bbpress() isn’t working on Buddypress Group Forums for me.
if( ! function_exists( 'my_dequeue_bbp_scripts' ) )
{
function my_dequeue_bbp_scripts()
{
if( function_exists( 'is_bbpress' ) )
{
if( ! is_bbpress() )
{
wp_dequeue_style('bbp-default');
wp_dequeue_style('bbp-default-rtl');
}
}
}
}
if( ! is_admin() ) add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_dequeue_bbp_scripts' );
Using WordPress 3.9.2, bbPress 2.5.4 and BuddyPress 2.0.2. Site is password protected I’m afraid. It is using a custom theme, based on Responsive.
is_bbpress() is returning false on any bbpress pages that fall under a BuddyPress group. If this seems to be custom theme related are there any tips for debugging?
Currently if I access the user’s profile of bbpress (ex: http://example.com/forums/users/admin/) then it’ll list the profile, topics started, replies started….) from the viewing user.
Is there a shortcode that allow me to display forum user’s profile by user’s id from anywhere besides original bbpress url( ex: http://example.com/test/ )?
I found the bug in plugin with some validates. Never liked if ($var) constructions. if ($var !== false && $var !== '') better to understand 🙂
Just replace content of plugin.php in plugin folder:

Tested on brand new WordPress install only with bbPress and my plugin with default theme – works as… haha.
Hi,
I apologize for posting this request to the forum. I tried for a long time last night but it was late and just couldn’t get it. I went at it again during half time and was able to get it quick enough using bbpress.css.
Thank you for your time

Hello,
Since last wordpress 4.0 update, users and admin can’t log out anymore.
When deactivating bbpress everything work fine.
Any suggestion ?
Hi guys, newby here. Initially I unpublished my Forum & when I reinstated it the my topics are there but when I click on them I get Error 404 – Page not found!
The page you trying to reach does not exist, or has been moved. Please use the menus or the search box to find what you are looking for.
Couldn’t figure it out so I re installed bbPress & I’m back to the same issue! My website is http://www.discounthomebrewsupplies.com.au
Some help here would be great, I’m a newby at the whole wordpress/woocommerce thing so bare that in mind pls! Thanks
Positive and positive. Now I’ve just made a clean install in English and set permalinks to postname. All works just fine, but right after activating the plugin all new nicely regenerated urls such as domain.com/forums/forum/11 or domain.com/forums/topic/13/ lead to 404. Unchecking forums/ prefix and flushing permalink settings doesn’t help. My wordpress installation directory is domain root, bbPress installed via plugin.
Maybe I can help you by providing more technical details from somewhere?
Hi!
Embedding Youtube video worked fine on my site until 1-2 days ago.
I was using Smart Youtube Pro plugin and lately alongside that also the WP Youtube Lyte, since some subscribers reported problem with youtube video when viewing my site via iPad.
SO, everything worked ok, on my blog posts/pages/comments as well as within bbpress forums. In forums, videos were embedded either with http:// or https:// link, all worked ok. On the rest of the site (post/pages/comments) they were embedded either via httpv:// (Smart Youtube Pro and WP Youtube Lyte requirement, well, it became optional now) or normally (http(s)://)
Now, “all of a sudden” some of the videos are not embedded in forum topics. And in no particular pattern that is: some https videos are embedded, some not, some http:// are embedded, some not.
I recently upgraded to WP 4.0. but a few days ago I downgraded to 3.9.2. due to problems with bbpress and s2member (see topic)
So… Does anyone have a clue what is going on? I should probably make a developer page and then test plugins one by one to see which one is causing the problem? An easier way perhaps?
Great response form S2member team !
I’m just a humble user not a dev, but hopefully netweb or JJJ will be in contact with the S2 guys.
For those that have been bitten by this, I know how painful it is, in the early days I just upgraded plugins and wordpress in the belief that they would work until one day my site broke, and I was in panic for 8 hours when I had least time to fix it.
When WordPress announced auto upgrade, I was very suspicious that anyone could release software confident that it would not screw up any of the several thousand plugins based on how it worked!
So the following for those bitten, and others who do not want to be bitten going forward !
If you are not happy for your site to be down for 24+ hours then :
1. Turn off wordpress auto update !
2. Create a test site https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
yes that takes time, but the comfort of not doing stuff live is fantastic !
3. Don’t do upgrades of wordpress/plugins for the first week (UNLESS they are deemed critical), let others find the faults – yes I know that is bad to say, and if no one upgraded we’d never make progress, and I write plugins that I need people to upgrade to, etc. etc., but many people’s site’s aren’t critical, and if your is, don’t be leading the charge !
4. Check the support forum for the upgrade
for wordpress https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting
or your plugins support page
you’ll soon find out if there are issues
5. Upgrade your test site first, the spend some time checking all the critical bits
6. When you’re happy that your test site works, then make the move in live
I really feel for those who have been sent into panic, but maybe the above will help for next time
@rafaeldejongh I think you need to create a test site :
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
This will let you work out what’s woring in comfort !
I just happened upon the following post on foliovision.com:
https://foliovision.com/2014/09/wordpress-original-bbpress
The key points are:
We still use bbPress version 1 on some of our websites. It’s powerful and integrates well with WordPress. Alas the recently released upgrade to WordPress 4.0 breaks the integration
WordPress 4.0 changed the cookie format and also the hash function, so without this fix bbPress won’t understand that you are logged in.
I’ve added a link also in the codex http://codex.bbpress.org/legacy/integrating-with-wordpress/
Note: This is only relevant for bbPress 0.9/1.x “Legacy” stand alone version of bbPress and NOT the current bbPress 2.x plugin for WordPress.
I’ve already seen a couple people with the problem but without much avail, I’m not running any plugins mentioned yet I still experience the problem after updating to WordPress 4.0
I’ve already reverted my wordpress installation as I can’t really put the forum out for more than a day, I’m running the following plugins on my site:
Adminimize
AdSense Click-Fraud Monitoring Plugin
amr shortcode any widget
BAW Login/Logout menu
bbPress
bbPress Custom CSS File
BulletProof Security
GD bbPress Tools
Google Adsense Dashboard
Google Analytics Dashboard for WP
Inactive User Deleter
Limit Login Attempts
Theme My Login
WP User Avatar
Does anyone know what plugin could be causing the problem if this isn’t a problem with BBpress?

I’m the s2Member lead dev. I did some research on this issue and posted a follow-up here in our own issue tracker. We are making some progress, but it seems there could be some changes necessary in bbPress also. I’d love it if a bbPress dev could take a look at my report here. Thanks! Please see: https://github.com/websharks/s2member/issues/321#issuecomment-54722088
A written to the S2 member thread:
A better fix – on a copy of content-single-topic.php in a bbpress folder in the theme-
is to find the line:
<?php if ( bbp_show_lead_topic( ) ) : ?>
and change it to:
<?php if ( bbp_show_lead_topic( $show_lead = true ) ) : ?>
Even better than that is to write this as a filter run from functions.php probably until such time as a true reason and solution is provided.
This function added to your themes functions file should also achieve the same requirement and can be removed after things have been cleared up.
function show_bbp_lead_topic_true() {
$show_lead = true;
return $show_lead;
}
add_filter('bbp_show_lead_topic', 'show_bbp_lead_topic_true');
@Hugo. I understand… but it felt frustrating seeing all the issues being solved or acknowledged. I never felt so “alone” on any WP related forum. Although I really understand and share your point of view, my answer reflected the feeling I had on BBPress forum at that very moment…
I also know that expecting an answer within minutes is not possible… but as you can imagine, the loss of 24000 treads is a situation where feelings get over very easily!
As the frustration passed, here what happened…
As always, weird behavior of a plugin is often related to conflicts with other plugins, especially at WP core updates. Although I have deactivated all BBPRESS related plugins with no success, nothing worked to correct the situation.
The conflict was found: Relevanssi’s plugin
same here. i enabled/disabled bbpress but it’s only showing the reply box. hope we get the fix soon.
I’m having the same problem since upgrading BUT I don’t have s2Member AND I have the search option disabled.
I had the following bbpress-affecting plug-ins enabled (all latest versions):
-bbPress Custom Topic & Reply Notifications 1.4
-bbPress Moderation 1.8.3
-bbPress Stay Checked 1.0
-GD bbPress Attachments 2.1
Also, I had a custom Topic Page.
I disabled all of the bbs-affecting plug-ins and removed the custom page from my child theme but the topic still won’t show up!!!
So, I re-installed bbpress.
Nada.
I’m going to try the suggested php fix and if that doesn’t work will down-grade until there is a solution!
Ciao,
L
