When i log in wordpress admin as an administrator I can see Forum, Topic and Replies Menus on the sidebar but when I log in as an Editor I cant see and access them.I want the Editor role to be able to add forum, topics etc ect.Can I do this?If yes how?Thank you.
You’re on the bbpress website. Bbpress is forum software, and you need more information about buddypress.
To answer your questions: yes, it is possible. You can add as many custom fields to user pages as you want. I’ve never done this, so can’t tell you how difficult making a custum template will be though. Try the buddypress forum.
@mdroca You should paste that code into your theme’s functions.php file. Here’s a guide on how to do that safely: http://wp-events-plugin.com/tutorials/how-to-safely-add-php-code-to-wordpress/
Also, for others wanting to hide bbPress breadcrumbs, this code is a bit more compact but does the same job:
add_filter('bbp_no_breadcrumb', function($arg) { return true; } );
Could it be i have set it wrong in wp settings? Or a plugin giving issues? Since my Better WP Security plugin blocks to edit wp-config files and htsacces
Thank you for the fast reply!!!
I have changed template.php to original form. And still i have the same issue with no email being received and new user not showing up in wp backend.
I’m using wordpress 3.6.1 and bbpress plugin..
My issue is..no user as well as keymaster not able to send reply from front end site.
please help me to sort out this problem
Thanks for the reply Stephen. Am I correct in assuming that posting to bbPress is just like creating any WordPress custom post?
And if so, could I make my own post submission form using Gravity Forms, or are there hooks that need to be used to get it to post correctly?
Changing bbPress core is not the best idea, let alone the actual login process, most likely your issue will be because bbPress core is now not correctly passing this process to WordPress.
Hi all.
I am using bbpress fist time.
I have configured the login widget with links to my “lost password” & “registr” page i have created with shortcodes: [bbp-register] , [bbp-lost-pass].
I have also created an page with shortcode: [bbp-login] which then i have changed the redirect link from wp-login to my own page link of the shortcode for login. The change i have done in bbpress/includes/common/template.php around line 1154.
Now my issue is that after i run a test register (from my page created with the shortcode) nothing happens. I get redirected to my custom login page. But i get no email or my test user does not show up in “Users” in my WP backend.
I have following plugins installed:
Advanced Custom Fields
bbPress – Report Content
bbPress Notices
bbPress Notify (No-Spam)
bbpress Simple Advert Units
bbPress Users Stats
Better WP Security
Crumina Menu Customizer
Facebook
Google Fonts WordPress
Math Captcha
Page Builder by SiteOrigin
WPBakery Visual Composer
WP Maintenance Mode
Hope someone can help me on this issue. 🙂
Also updated the codex to reflect the correct shortcode syntax https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
The ‘topic tags’ that see when viewing a topic (e.g. this post) you will not see the topic tags actually included in the search results by default, this is not something yet implemented in bbPress’ search results.
There is this plugin by @jmdodd https://github.com/jmdodd/bbpress-topic-post-converter
(It hasn’t been updated in a while though, so not 100% sure on compatability)
I also think there are another couple of plugins that do this, have a search of plugins section:
Plugins
This is also planned for inclusion in a future version of bbPress in some form yet to be decided 🙂
What happens after you have run the repair tool “Remap existing users to default forum roles”
https://codex.bbpress.org/repair-forums/
You may have enabled ‘Threaded Replies’ in the settings and this would stop you from seeing any pagination.

I’m using wordpress version 3.6.1
bbpress version 2.4.1
i’m not using buddypress.My question is that I cant send reply to any topic from bbpress..
Yes, they will get overwritten and details on what to copy and where to copy them to can be found here:
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/
Just to follow up with this.. I also tried jonboldendesign’s suggestion and it worked with bbPress version 2.4.1. Here is what I did immediately after upgrading from v2.2.4:
- Enable “Anonymous posting”, save changes.
- Disable “Anonymous posting”, save changes.
- Enable “Auto role”, save changes.
- Disable “Auto role”, save changes (optional).
After the 3rd step all three menu items (Forums, Topics, Replies) are showing. Note that just upgrading to 2.4.1 was enough to get the Forum menu item to show, but the other two (Topics, Replies) only showed up after the first three steps.
Thanks to jonboldendesign and everyone who provided feedback on this 🙂
Hello all
I am trying to change my bbpress theme i’m looking everywhere but i couldn’t find how to do it i search in some forums and i found that i have to edit my basic theme with the css i don’t know how because i am juste beginner so please i need a help
thank you in advance

Yes, I did. I’m using the Twenty Thirteen theme, I doubt that’s the problem. May be my host, some issues from the conversion, I don’t know. I’ll give it a few days, see if it goes away.
That sounds like a performance issue indeed having a dropbox with ‘all’ those topics, I just tried it here on bbpress.org and it isn’t an issue, presumably this is due to the difference in host setups. 😉
If you can create a ticket in Trac https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ we can look at making some performance improvements, what exactly can be done in what timeframe I do not know.
Can you bump your PHP Memory on your web host from 64MB -> 128MB until you get all your merges complete is propably the only quick fix I can think of off the top of my head right now.
@david2013 Are you using bbPress 2.4.1? What theme did you purchase?
(With that info we can help you easier)
Looking at the source of http://atdp.berkeley.edu/forums/topic/test-topic-2/ the ‘content’ looks like its getting nuked either directly by your theme or by the plugin ‘W3 Total Cache’
Can you switch to Twenty Eleven/Twelve/Thirteen and see if you get your content back?
If no go there, disable the ‘W3 Total Cache’ plugin and try that as there are some issues running ‘cache’ plugins with bbPress see this for more info on that.
That shouldn’t be an issue and as you are also seeing this for WordPress Blog posts I would expect it is either your browser, try another (Firefox, Chrome etc) and also clear the browsers cache though due to issues previously mentioned in this topic most likely an issue with your web host sadly.
Just to be safe before contacting your web host change your WordPress theme, try switching to Twenty Eleven/Twelve/Thirteen and see if the issues still persists.
Also I presume you ran the bbPress ‘Repair Tools’ after the import:
