When I try and do it manually on the WP admin dashboard, it also forces me to make them a user on the blog, which I don’t want. I want them to only access the forum.
bbPress users ARE WordPress users so as @ronthai points out just make the users WordPress role ‘Subscriber’ to which point you may as well just use the built in users panel in your WordPress admin.

Hi,
It was lovely of Milan to add hooks to his bbPress Digest (see here: http://blog.milandinic.com/2013/12/15/bbpress-digest-2-1-customizing-emails/)
But I think he does not have much free time for non-developers, which I can understand. I was wondering if anyone can helps with implementation?
I just want to update the From and the Subject.
Thanks
it seems it was semi addressed – https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/subscribe-to-new-forum-topics/
Subscriptions
Forum participants can elect to subscribe to a topic. They will be notified when a new reply is posted and subscribed forum topics will appear on their forum profile.

Hi guys,
is there any solution to have same nicks in WordPress and phpBB, which you want to import into bbPress? For example, when I do this with my forum nick ‘LinDan94’, it’ll be overwrited with ‘imported_LinDan94’, because the same user exists in WordPress. How can I link this 2 accounts together?
Thanks in advance
I want want to remove the permission that moderators can delete topics and posts from the trash. But how can I change the standard permissions from bbPress?
I made this code but it doesn’t work because bbPress roles are separated from WordPress roles:
function changePermissions() {
$role = get_role('moderater');
$role->remove_cap('delete_others_topics');
$role->remove_cap('delete_others_replies');
}
add_action('init', 'changePermissions');
Thanks for the reply. So in order to do this I would have to use BuddyPress along with bbPress?
As it is used in many spots I would suggest you add the translation now.
Most of these translations only happened in the past two days so I would expect you won’t have to wait long for the translations to be updated.
Once you translate that string fill out this form https://he.wordpress.org/contact/
More info is also here in Hebrew https://he.wordpress.org/translate-wordpress/
In the WordPress dashboard on the left side, there was the “Forum” tab which is gone now and I cannot set up anything for the bbpress plugin now.
How can I fix this?
Anyone is using wordpress seo by yoast and bbpress please confirm that this is not a bug and this is my mistake: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-number-does-not-work?replies=1 . I have been struggling with Yoast and he says this is not a bug of WordPress SEO.
In short: please check to see if %%page%% in wordpress seo titles work for BBpress pages like topics and forums. For me, it does not work anymore.
Thanks,
You can I think… Add the translation “Topic Status” as I linked to above.
Then at the bottom of that screen you can select ‘Export’, though the dropdowns to the right you want to select “only matching the filter” then to right select “Portable Object Message Catalog (.po)” and then click the ‘export’ link on the left, save this file as bbpress-he.po then select “Machine Object Message Catalog (.mo)” and click ‘export’ again and save this file as bbpress-he.mo and then using FTP upload both these files to /wp-content/languages/bbpress/ and you evertyhting should be perfect. 🙂

It might be in form-forum.php (bbpress/templates/default/bbpress)
It has these lines, have not tried it and be sure to have a backup:
<p>
<label for="bbp_forum_type"><?php _e( 'Forum Type:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
<?php bbp_form_forum_type_dropdown(); ?>
</p>
<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_forum_form_type' ); ?>
<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_forum_form_status' ); ?>
<p>
<label for="bbp_forum_status"><?php _e( 'Status:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
<?php bbp_form_forum_status_dropdown(); ?>
</p>
It looks like “Topic Status” has not been translated yet 🙁

You could help by translating those 91 remaining strings and then fill out the form here and let them know “There are some strings for bbPress waiting to be validated”, once these are approved you can update your translations.

Hi I just checked the exact date I signed up with wpengine.com it is 24th November 2013. my theme has a button which says import dummy data and it imports dummy posts. But I did that before installing buddypress and bbpress. Dummy data has its own dates.
But whatever the problem is with my installation, If I replace bbpress 2.5 with 2.3.2 the problem will be fixed.
Ok i think I have found where the problem is, take a look at the Body Class snippets from different pages on bbpress, paying particular attention to the sections after the word bbpress in each snippet.
The top two are from pages I am able to get sidebars to appear on and the bottom two I can not.
In the top two notice after the word bbpress you see a description of the type of page it is “single single-topic” and “archive” respectively.
In the bottom two this does not happen so my theme “Hueman” doesn’t know what sort of pages they are and therefore is unable to place the sidebars on these pages, now all I need to know is how to rectify this?
<body class="topic bbpress single single-topic postid-976 logged-in admin-bar no-customize-support topbar-enabled full-width gecko">
<body class="forum-archive bbpress archive post-type-archive post-type-archive-forum logged-in admin-bar no-customize-support topbar-enabled full-width gecko">
<body class="bbp-user-page single singular bbpress logged-in admin-bar no-customize-support topbar-enabled full-width gecko">
<body class="bbp-view bbpress logged-in admin-bar no-customize-support topbar-enabled full-width gecko">
If you are talking about this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-threaded-replies/ then you are probably correct as “threaded replies” are now build into bbPress.
My wp theme is Luminescence Lite. Bbpress is default.
I have worked part of this out and have implemented a is_bbpress format for forum pages so I can choose what sidebars to put on my forum pages however I am still not able to get sidebars to show up on profile or most popular topics.
What I require is the is_ codex for these pages so I can write a script to place sidebars on these pages, I have found that the User profile has these html body classes:
bbp-user-page single singular bbpress
is_bbpress() does not work
and Most Popular Topics:
bbp-view bbpress
This should be is_bbpress() however is_bbpress() does not work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is not even a new test site as you mention above, this is still your old test site from that article I linked to above.
Whatever previous hacks and or workarounds you have added are most likely still in place causing the issue, delete that entire site and database and start with a clean slate, install WordPress with a clean database then install bbPress.
bbPress does not have groups. BuddyPress does have groups 😉
Maybe this plugin will do what you want 🙂
bbPress Protected Forums adds a metabox, shown while editing a forum, that allows you to disable new topic creation for determined user roles. The plugin is perfect for those situations that you may want your users to see the list of topics of a forum but don’t want them to create new topics.

@cyberdrone See this to get the translations or get started with translating bbPress. https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-protected-forums/
@david7h6 What shortcode is broken?
Hi Stephen ( @netweb ), Thank you for the quick reply, the issue you mentioned (http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/bbpress-user-profile-page-problem/) was a different problem, I had to create a page called “blog” for bbpress to work with this theme. After creating this page everything worked smoothly until I upgraded to bbpress 2.4.
To be honest I thought that the problem was my theme, and not bbpress. BUT … this problem did not occur with my current theme until I upgraded to bbpress 2.4. It only happened when I upgraded to new version. In order to demonstrate, I replaced my theme with standard buddypress theme. I also removed all the other plug-ins you mentioned, If you log in now as the guest user you will see this css problem even with the buddypress theme.
If you log out (s2 member is removed) and look at the same forum when logged out the css problem does not occur. Only when you log in as subscriber. (http://megm.wpengine.com/forums/forum/magazine-articles/july-december-2013/)
Kind regards
I just read this http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/bbpress-user-profile-page-problem/
Whatever the issue was with your theme that you had the issue with in July and fixed in August is back. As you stated in that thread bbPress works fine with Twenty Twelve, I am not sure what these dynamic templates are or how they work but most certainly this is your issue and not a bbPress issue.
I would also recommend if you are going to setup a test site to test WordPress & bbPress, you don’t add all the extra plugins like BuddyPress, Members, Jetpack etc as they add more complexity to an issue you are trying to isolate, so you should remove all your plugins except bbPress.
