Yes, they will get overwritten and details on what to copy and where to copy them to can be found here:

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:

Stephen, one more question. I’m not sure if this is bbPress-related or WordPress’ fault or just my computer, but I’m getting a lot of “blank” pages whenever I try to access a blog post or forum topic and I have to reload before it shows up. Is this a known issue?

Most likely you have downloaded the 2.4.x branch as noted above as it is at 0% as there are translations waiting for approval.
Download the .po & .mo from the /dev branch
Rename and upload both bbpress-nl.po & bbpress-nl.mo to /wp-content/languages/bbpress/

I have some code to show the sidebar based on what page it is, and it works fine for the pages, but no sidebar shows on any bbpress pages:
if (is_page(79) || is_child(79) || is_ancestor(79) || is_bbpress()){
dynamic_sidebar(‘memberbar-sidebar’);
}
I am using WordPress: 3.6.1
I am using bbPress: 2.4
When i try to “Activate” bbPress it errors throwing
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes)
The error happens on all Admin pages, The bytes vary from page-to-page. I can’t figure this out! I posted in the “Installation” forum but had no help.
Hope someone can answer me fast! Thanks.
Hi,
I already bought the theme for WordPress and i dont like the stayl of bbPress. I thought that the special theme forbbPress. Now i have some problems with CSS. I do not know how to adjust.If i made that change in CSS it would change all everywhere in web site not only bbPress page, unless i use !important selector. I’m not sure hot to do thet… I was looking som tutorials but still…
Specifics on CSS Specificity
When Using !important is The Right Choice
Yep, I ran all the repair options per Buddypress’s instructions. I ran them a second time after I discovered this issue. I created that test forum after that point, so I ran them again just now for fun. Still no change. 🙁
The only next steps I can think of are to hit that ominous “Reset bbPress” button or dig up my backups and just try again.
Both buddypress and bbpress installed…
Setting>Forums>Forum User Settings>Auto Role – set to participant
Settings>buddypress>settings>Profile Settings – Enable BuddyPress to WordPress profile syncing
After someone registers they are registered with – Site Role – subscriber and no forum role is designated.
Mr. Fox
Both buddypress and bbpress are installed…
The topic replies (bbpress forum) used to be broken down into pages and now they are not. Due to the individual pages previously being present I believe that I have changed a setting or something and can not locate it now.
Settings>Forums>Topics and Replies Per Page – is set to 20 per page.
Mr. Fox
Unfortunately the img-Tag does not work. 🙁
Here the URL to my screenshot:

I’ve made edits to the core bbpress files – then realized I need to copy the templates in order to not have those edits overwritten when I upgrade. Core files I edited are: archive-forum.php and single-forum.php in my themes folder.
1 – Will those 2 get overwritten?
2 – If so, when I copy in content-archive-forum.php, content-single-forum.php and content-archive-topic. They do not have any effect on the bbpress display. I thought copying those files into theme folder bbpress would look at those files first?
Hi 🙂
I have a layout problem with the bbpress-login-widget. See the screenshot.
Where can I increase the distance, so that “username” (here in German: Benutzername) is displayed in full. So the last letters are not seen. I suspect in the CSS, but I can not find the relevant code.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Morgensonne
P.S.:
Ohh, the link to my screenshot is not working……….. (?)
Any help for me?
WordPress themes are what you use with bbPress v2.x plugin
I think David want a theme only for bbpress and not for wordpress.. He want to customize a layout for example… Is correct?
I deactivated all plugins except bbpress, then one by one activated them. After I had activated all of them, my forums miraculously decided to work again! Thanks so much though Stephen 🙂
<?php st_last_poster_block ( get_the_ID() ) ?>
This function not exist in bbpress, it’s home made? you must to search in your functions lists..
We must to open this function to change a little parameter to remove reply to….
Topic 333 was the last Topic to be posted that will import over, but several Posts made after that make it from the next day, from that topic and others.
Yeah, once you directed me into my phpadmin, I looked at the tables of those posts (had never done that before) and they all look exactly the same. It must be another table that’s throwing the bbPress importer off.
Edit: I just noticed they’re in a weird order:
331
333
—————————————
332
335
336
337
The two above the line will import over, nothing after will. Notice how “332” is under the line, even though it would fall in between Topics 331 and 333. Not sure if it’s a clue or if this is totally normal.
