the bbpress login widget should just log them in, you shouldn’t get other login screens – what your url?
Most likely you have an incorrect setting, see my post above and if needed contact your web host to get them.
Importing Mingle Forums into bbPress?
Hi
Ive setup the forum and have the register link in the widget setup properly. My test profile was able to register and receive an activation email. But when/if I log out and try to sign back in using the BBPress Login Widget, after I click “login” it takes me to the wordpress login?
Is this how the login is supposed to work? Is there a way to login using the widget that doesnt prompt them to login with wordpress? Why after clicking on “login” does it take the user to another login screen and just log them in on that same page?
I dont feel secure if users can maybe access the backend to the site, but it looks like this is how this site works as well?
Ive installed a BBPress plugin called BBPress – No Admin does this solve my fear of them being able to access the backend?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Im running WordPress 3.6.1 with BBPress 2.4.1 and BuddyPress 1.8.1
Your best bet here will be to create a ticket on Trac for this:
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/
I am having an obstacle. I begin the conversion process, with a forum with less than 200 posts in it, and I deactivate all plugins except Buddypress, BBpress, and Mingle.
I have tried this 2 or 3 times now, and virtually 12 hours later the converter is just spinning.
Any idea why the converter (assumed to be correctly configured) is just spinning with the message “Starting Conversion”?
I also tried that but facing same same problem
as well as I also create another website and install only bbpress plugin but again facing same problem
WP 3.6.1
bbPress 2.4.1
After creating a new forum and setting visibility to hidden and then publishing it, I can no longer access the forum to edit it – it’s not listed. But the number indicator of my hidden forums does appear above the (empty) list. Clicking on that link has no effect.
The forum does appear on the frontend of the site and functions properly with topics etc. I just can’t access the forum in the backend.
Need help with that error message in forum-topics
`Home › Forums › Test
Warning: sprintf() [function.sprintf]: Too few arguments in /xxx/xxx/xxx/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/template.php on line 187
anyone knows what is wrong?
BBPress adds some jQuery dependent javascript to the header which breaks the defer loading (cause a javascript error).
Javascript will be insert by setup_actions in bbpress/templates/default/bbpress-functions.php
add_action( 'bbp_head', array( $this, 'head_scripts' ) );
Would it be possible to make this script independent of jQuery or otherwise insert it with wp_enqueue_script and set its dependency of jQuery?
I also want to know how to remove this action. I tried:
global $BBP_Default;
remove_action( ‘bbp_head’, array( $BBP_Default, ‘head_scripts’ ) );
Thanks for your attention. I will need this fixes to get WP Defer Loading work with BuddyPress, see: https://github.com/bassjobsen/wp-defer-loading/issues/5
Stephen, I thank you very, very much!!!
I have set a margin-left to the point that you’ve told me and now it looks perfectly.
Please, would you also tell me how I could get that the “remember me” (in my screenshot in German “Daten merken”) is displayed in 1 line? That would be great!
Thanks in advance from Morgensonne!
Hi Bookkus, I have exactly the same problem here.
I’m using a child theme of BP default. bbPress 2.3.2, BP 1.7.3, WP 3.5.2.
The pages generated by bbPress follow my theme styling fine:
http://community.allen-heath.com/forums/forum/me
However when I use a bbPress shortcode, the styling / font goes wrong:
http://community.allen-heath.com/forums
http://community.allen-heath.com/forums-activity
Have you ever fixed this?
Keeping your ‘Auto Role’ issue in a single topic is much easier to track, closing this topic.
Auto Role not working
That plugin looks fine to use with bbPress 2.x, you just need to download either the bbpress-close-old-posts.php file and upload it to your plugins folder, or download the .zip, extract to a folder and upload that folder to your plugins folder.
But since it’s not listed at bbpress.org plugins list, I’m not sure if it’s safe or even compatible with my current install.
You will at times find many themes and plugins that are not hosted on WordPress.org, sometimes they are proprietary code, other times they are just quick snippets of code, it doesn’t mean they are unsafe and usually a quick note to the author will confirm if they work with the latest version of bbPress.
btw, searching for “lock” at bbpress.org plugins, at the bottom of the page you will see: ”Viewing 1 to 4 (4 total)” but there are only 3 plugins listed.”
Thanks, this is a known issue and will hopefully be fixed soon.
Thanks for the feedback and as time goes on more and more bits keep getting added 🙂
If you do decide to give bbPress another shot the phpBB importer is pretty awesome so it shouldn’t be too hard to have a play in a dev site now and then either 😉
Try reinstalling the bbPress plugin to ensure no files are missing or corrupted.
If you can export your Yahoo Groups data you should be able to import it into bbPress
If you can export it as CSV data then the following discussion should get you on the right track to get your data imported into WordPress/bbPress.

There are known issues using most WordPress cache plugins:
This is probably the best thread on the matter:

The CSS class for this widget is bbp-login-form
@jonblazn I would suggest your open an issue on the authors GitHub repo
https://github.com/turtlepod/gt-bbpress-author/issues
@tatiana_k Are you using any custom templates for bbPress in your theme folder? (Possibly some ‘older’ Twenty Ten bbPress templates)
The issue is that I see both topics & replies and want to determine what is different between your setup and mine.
bbPress Trac Ticket #2453
OH! I unchecked Prefix all forum content with the Forum Root slug in the bbpress settings and it solved the problem for me!

Hi guys,
I have the same problem! I just installed bbPress 2.4.1 and any user profile returns a 404 error.
https://www.webacademie.co/discussions/user/frenchycopy/
Even myself as the admin: http://www.webacademie.co/discussions/user/Admin/
I even created a brand new user using the bbpress registration form thinking maybe the user needed to be created by bbpress itself but that didn’t work either.
I have tried resetting my permalinks. I also deactivated every single plugin except bbpress and even alone, I still get the 404 errors.
Can someone help me? I have no clue what to do! I’m more than willing to pay for support on this. I just want things to work.
Thanks in advance…
Hi again,
nobody can help?
Nobody knows where in the CSS I could solve this problem?
Maybe someone have mercy.
Thanks a lot!!
I had a custom php site running phpbb, and I’m designing a WP site to replace it. I was planning on using forum software that would integrate with WP and settled on bbpress as the only free (or inexpensive) option.
But now I’m planning on sticking with phpbb, even though it won’t integrate with WP like I want it to. I was willing to install a handful of plugins, but it looks like I’m going to need 20 or 30 plugins just to get some basic functionality for users and the admin. That’s even considering that my user base is not technically oriented and many phpbb features are unnecessary. My site has a single column layout with a header navigation, so the login and other widgets aren’t very useful for me. It looks like it’s possible to get bbpress set up the way I want with enough coding, but I guess I was just hoping for more of a plug and play solution to get my new site up and running with.
I hope you will keep developing bbpress to be a more complete solution.
Hello , I have got the latest bbpress plugin workings with my WordPress but now I am noticing forums and topics are not refreshing . I use w3 total cache and assume that is the issue . Is there a way to exclude bbpress from it or do you know how to make it compatible , thank you
