1) have you set up your email address in dashboard>settings>general?
2) If registration is automatic, then they’ll be sent a password. They can change this in their bbpress profile – they can just click on their avatar, or you can add this to wdigets or the menu – see
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
maybe theme or plugin related.
Try
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, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
You don’t appear to be using bbPress.
Not really sure how to answer this given that your link goes to myBB software !
I’ve not seen a ‘read more’ on a bbpress forum, and it would most likely to be theme related – that is you main theme.
If you post a link to your bbpress forum, we can see the issue
Yeah I know I removed the bbPress plugin, but that was due to it doesnt work as intended for me…
Can anyone please say how to remove the “read more” in a theme on a bbpress root?
I just ran through and did a brand new install of WordPress with Twenty Fourteen as the theme, only plugins are bbPress and BuddyPress. It appears to have worked. I wiped the plugins, and tried again with no luck. Here’s a rundown of my process:
Permalinks set to postname.
bbPress installed first, forum root url set to ‘sound-off-forums’, saved. All other settings left default.
Page created with slug ‘sound-off-forums’, page works, shows forums as expected.
BuddyPress installed, default configuration left alone. ‘http://example.com/sound-off-forums’ fails to load, showing a 404 page.
I have no idea. It sounds like I’ll likely need to scrub the DB any trace of bbpress and buddypress from my environment and start over. Thanks for the help with everything. It must have just been an installation error.
A clean install breaks it again. I’m not sure what it is that out-of-the-box would break it like that, but it appears there is a conflict between BuddyPress 2.0 and bbPress 2.5.3.
This is extremely rare, not saying it can’t happen, the fact that BuddyPress uses bbPress for forums 99% of the time the BuddyPress developers will have bbPress enabled. I have BuddyPress enabled for ~75% of the time and typically only deactivate it when working on bbPress profiles. In short we usually catch any conflicts ourselves before releasing a new version of either plugin.
Also the fact that I have both plugins activated now using the same slugs you are trying to use and don’t get that error eliminates the plugins having a conflict as the issue in this case.
Can you spin up an entirely fresh WordPress install with just bbPress and BuddyPress and use the Twenty Fourteen theme and see if the issue still occurs.
I just went trawling through the raw database options for WordPress in wp_options trying to find something that may cause the conflict and couldn’t find anything of interest.
I’ve tried the things listed, and compared it exactly as we’ve run through. I currently have the buddypress legacy forums turned off as it’s a new install, but I took a shot and disabled buddypress. It completely resolves the issue. A clean install breaks it again. I’m not sure what it is that out-of-the-box would break it like that, but it appears there is a conflict between BuddyPress 2.0 and bbPress 2.5.3.
Using ‘sound-off-forum’ as you have in your example works for me
https://i.cloudup.com/K4YTnskjg0.png
If I change my forums root slug to ‘groups’ I get the error “Possible BuddyPress conflict: Groups page“, thus I have a slug conflict with BuddyPress’ ‘Groups’ page.
So onto your “Possible BuddyPress conflict: Sound Off Forum page” error.
Are you using BuddyPress’ ‘Legacy’ Group Forums?
Do any of your BuddyPress Activity, Groups, Members, Register or Activate BuddyPress page settings link to that same ‘sound-off-forum’ page and/or have page names with a similar slug name?
https://i.cloudup.com/RxLi9qai1J.png
Lastly what bbPress settings are you using for the BuddyPress group forums setting?
(at the bottom of the bbPress settings page)
https://i.cloudup.com/dv-qV5Uy1j.png
Alright. Let me run through this one more time to see if I’m overlooking something. My real world scenario uses the page http://example.com/sound-off-forum as the page I want to use from wordpress. The slug is set to sound-off-forum, as that is the url I’d like to use, and each is the desired url for my forum.
Page is visible here: https://i.imgur.com/Eiz8xyL.png
Admin panel view: https://i.imgur.com/DL3MXzj.png
I then set the forum root to “sound-off-forum” and get this result
bbPress Error: https://i.imgur.com/rp7yLGF.png
http://example.com/sound-off-forum page no longer working: http://imgur.com/3b314S3
Throughout WordPress and bbPress and BuddyPress included having posts, pages, terms can NOT have the same slug, most likely you have something else either titled or using the slug discuss and this includes any items in trash as even though they are in the trash they still reserve that slug and it is not released until the item is removed from the trash.
I cant seem to find an error for the term “Possible BuddyPress Conflict”, where are you seeing this error?
Doing so breaks the page. It creates a conflict by attempting to dynamically generate a forum root, using the same url as the wordpress page which is using the shortcode.
This works fine for me and is part of the backend philosophy of how bbPress works allowing a page with the same name as the forum root to take precedence.
* Created a page titled discuss and added the shortcode [bbp-forum-index]
* Changed the bbPress setting ‘Forum Root Slug -> Forum Root’ to discuss
So now for the site http://example.com/
– A forum list at http://example.com/discuss/
– A topic at http://example.com/discuss/topic/exammple-topic/
– A forum at http://example.com/discuss/forum/example-forum/

Excellent 🙂

I’ll take a look at the BBCode’s and see what I can find and add some conversions for them (if I can can)
utf8 encoding accented words not fix
Hmmmm, this might be a little harder, will take a look.
Stephen for news and content from e107 to wordpress I asked a programmer who will take me some money, if he fails, can you do it?
I’m not sure I’d be able to help, I have never used e107, I have a basic forum setup and that is it. I do everything I need for bbPress directly in the MySQL database.

Sorry sorry for my english.
Hi everyone…
I hope I’m not posting this in the wrong place, but I have a question. I’m an absolute neophyte with bbPress, only having installed it a couple days ago. I’ve tinkered around with a lot, but I’m having trouble with the following. My forum index displays as show in the first image. I WANT it to display as the forum page itself does in the second image. Any ideas where I might find that and make the proper change?
Thanks for getting back to me Robin. The area of the site where this occurs is in the members section, for which you would have to be a registered member to view. (feel free to join the site if you wish…no obligation to remain a member). the url is thehinge.org.
Here’s a combined screen shot showing that page without (left) and with (right) bbPress activated. We only have one other plug in on this site, which is S2Members. I considered deactivating it to see if it was possibly conflicting but fearful of what might happen to the userlist if I deactivate it. Being a live site that scares me.
Thoughts? (and in advance, thanks!) d
on styling, yes all can be changed.
see
bbPress Styling Crib
for lots of help.
On your page http://atlantacraftbeer.com/beer-exchange/ – what is this page? In theory if it is a normal page with a sidebar, and you put the [bbp-forum-index] shortcode on it it should work.
How is this page set up?
I apologize in advance for posting this here but couldn’t find a way to start a new topic. Although, this one is similar in that it’s related to Enfold (by Kriesi). If I need to start a new thread can you direct me on how to do that? Otherwise, here’s my issue:
I just installed bbpress and when I activate there appears to be a conflict with my custom sidebar widget. The widget actually disappears completely, although the sidebar theme still exists. Deactivating bbPress returns the widget to normal. I’m a newbie (an understatement for sure) and it’s possible I’m overlooking an action. Any advise you can offer would be greatly…no wait, GREATLY appreciated.

Not sure if this is a question for bbPress or WordPress.. please let me know if you can help
I am setting up WordPress Multisite + BuddyPress + bbPress
One annoyance I have is that when a user registers and creates a new blog, when they login they see the parent site as well as their blog under ‘My Sites’
There is a link to ‘Dashboard’ of the parent site, which they don’t have access to.
I’d like to remove the parent site from the list of My Sites
I’ve been able to establish the reason why it’s showing in the Admin bar is because they’re automatically assigned Participants to the parent blog for the bbPress forum. This is fine, but I really don’t want that showing in the admin bar.
I thought this would of already been asked before, but can’t find a similar thread
Thanks in advance.
Hi there,
Very strange issue. When logged into my bbpress forum (via WP 3.9) the sort order
of the forums (talking top-level forums) is correct as setup in admin, however
when I log out the top-level forums are listed in reverse order. Any ‘sub’ forums
within those top-level ones are fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Mark
Using
WordPress 3.9 “Smith”
WPML Multilingual CMS 3.1.5
WooCommerce 2.1.7
BuddyPress 2.0
bbPress 2.5.3
Hello, can somebody please tell me how to fix the buttons for editing text?
Instead of being displayed like these nice little white cubes above the text field, they look like big red stacked bars with a single letter (B / I / Link etc.) in each bar, so it’s basically one big red block. Also the “notify me” square is not located where it’s supposed to be. :/ The buttons do work, but they look weird. I’m using WooCommerce, WPML, BuddyPress and bbPress.
Thanks.
Well, it turns out more and more I can’t get around buddypress. Need private messaging and ssome other features too
BUT bbpress is soooo cool by itself.
1) I have just set up the bbpress plugin. When users register they don’t receive emails with passwords.
2) Is there an easy way to allow new users to choose the password they like?
thanks!
Been looking into this for a few days, and I can’t find a solution.
By default, bbpress offers two solutions for the index of a forum page:
- Using the default settings, and a customizable ‘forum root’ available in the settings panel
- Using a page with a shortcode to implement the section that you want
However, when you use the shortcode solution, there are two ‘forum root’ urls. The one that is associated with the page you want to use, and the one generated with the ‘forum root’ url.
For example, let’s say that I created the forum using the shortcode on site.com/discuss, and I need to use custom fields to customize the appearance of that page with a header, a hero graphic, and some descriptive text. I can style it, and it looks perfect. However, the site.com/forums url is still present in the forum topic urls (site.com/forums/post, not site.com/disucss/post), and as it’s own page without the custom styling.
While I could customize the page template for bbpress on site.com/forums, there are no methods for displaying fields defined by the client/user in the dashboard on that template, completely eliminating the purpose of using the custom page & shortcode option.
Are there any solutions for this or am I stuck? I’ve yet to find any solutions on this.
