Is there a migration path on moving previous threaded replies in the plugin to bbpress? Does just simple deactiving the plugin make the previous threads show up?
Thanks – DD
hello all,
I have searched the forums here and not found a solution yet, so sorry if I have missed it.
I recently installed bbPress to my site and all seemed fine. I have not done anything that I can think of this evening but the dashboard options have all disappeared. I think this could be user settings issue but the forum repair tool in the Tools panel has disappeared too so I am unable to repair the user settings. anyone got any ideas how I can reset the admin access?
I have checked that I am set as Keymaster and have also noticed that the forum settings when editing profiles has also disappeared
Wordpress 3.8 and bbPress 2.5.2
Thanks in advanced for any help.
Matt
I am working on installing BBpress for the first time.
I have it installed and I created my first forum, but the link is way too long. It shows as:
http://mysite.com/forums/forum/darth-forums/
I’ve tried resetting permalinks, but that didn’t fix it. How can I make the link show as http://mysite.com/darth-forums/ ?
Thanks!
Happy New Year all!
Just noticed a slight bug I think with the way that BBPress deals with @mentions since this TRAC ticket for the way BP handles usernames with spaces in.
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/7570
So basically a new username can now HAVE spaces in it.
When we use that username with spaces in BBPress it isn’t happy and wont work, unless it’s hyphenated.
Let me know if you’d like me to make a TRAC ticket for it.

I just tried with a default theme but it does not work either.
My plugin enable are :
bbPress
bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab
Light – Responsive LightBox
NextGEN Gallery by Photocrati
Regenerate Thumbnails
Relevanssi
Responsive Lightbox
Sidebar Login
Theme My Login
TinyMCE Advanced
User Role Editor
WP-PageNavi
WP Minify
WP Wall
You can test on http://www.lsa-clan.fr/wordpress/forums (register is open)
Oh BTW… WPML has an extra plugin to make it compatible with bbPress but no public download link, you need to ask them for this, why? I do not know you just do :/
I’d suggest taking a look at the bbPress Repair Tool to remap users forums role as it shows pretty much what you are trying to achieve using bbp_set_user_role

I am going to close this topic as we should be really using the following topic 😉
(My bad, I may have pointed a few people to this one recently)
I have created a bbPress starter theme with a phpBB look and feel
That is a little strange, was it only in one particular browser? (IE, Firefox etc)
Aside from that if you need to have custom templates the best way is to copy the template you need to a subfolder /bbpress of your theme to avoid it being overridden after an update.
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/
I’d suggest you copy that form-topic.php template per the above.
You could also try adding some CSS styling to those labels to make them work better with your theme.
Hey! So I found out that the plugin I am using creates 6 different size files, and that bbpress is pulling the version smaller than it should be for the recent posts, but not for the login widget. Any idea how I can alter where and what file it pulls?
I have the latest version of TinyMCE bbPress Enable Visual Tab and I have the same problem with or without the advanced TinyMCE plugin.
This is now supposedly resolved though you have to contact AWPCP to get the update

hey 🙂
I am new to wordpress and bbpress, but i just want bbpress and close wordpress standard functions like blog stuff.
So i only have the bbpress forum on my site 🙂
best regards! 😀
I just noticed that the permalink is …/forums/forum/… is that normal?
Yes, the ‘forums’ part is the ‘forum root’ prefix you have set in the settings
https://codex.bbpress.org/forum-settings/#forum-root-slug
Then the ‘forum’ is the prefix before a single forum name.
https://codex.bbpress.org/forum-settings/#single-forum-slugs
See if this stops your theme from nuking the forum list. Make a copy of your themes full width template eg. page.php file and rename it to bbPress.php then all your bbPress pages will use this template.
There are numerous ways of doing this:
You can use a conditional to check is_bbpress()
Make some copies of your templates for example and make a copy of page.php file and rename it to bbpress.php and call a specific sidebar template eg bbpress-sidebar.php from your bbpress.php template.
Have you tried disabling all your plugins, then enable bbPress?
Plugin Conflicts
To try and resolve conflicts with other plugins please disable all your plugins except bbPress to see if the error persists. Re-enable each plugin one at a time and if things break again you should be able to now know which other plugin is causing the conflict.
This can NOT be done at this stage with bbPress.
Comments are just that and bbPress uses custom post types (CPT) and we do not have comments enabled for these custom post types.
What we are working on though is replacing WordPress comments with bbPress topics.
Try installing the plugin I linked below and compare the roles of your users in particular ‘keymaster’ to what the defaults should be in the codex.
https://github.com/johnjamesjacoby/bbp-capabilities
(Open a users profile from the Users section in wp-admin and scroll down)
https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-user-roles-and-capabilities/
Make a copy of your themes full width template eg. page.php file and rename it to bbPress.php then all your bbPress pages will use this template.
It looks like your theme is stopping the forums from displaying.
Make a copy of your themes full width template eg. page.php file and rename it to bbPress.php.
This is more of a WordPress issue than bbPress, bbPress should function in whataver language the site is in correctly.
This looks like a good start and quite a few people use WPML and bbPress

Hi Stephen,
Please see this 2 threads:
add user notification in bbpress moderation
pending topics must be viewable to the author only – bbpress moderation plugin
I haven’t tried the HTML message yet since I am currently bump to my problem of creating a thank you page after creating a topic.
Thanks.
Can I suggest you add some links to this post and to the “bbPress Moderation” support forum outlining the changes/updates you made, I am quite sure some other people would find the information quite useful.
