The file is located in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default
If you edit this file manually when you update bbPress your changes will be lost.
The link above in my post shows the steps needed to copy this template to your own theme so you can use your own custom templates without bbPress overriding it during updates.
Sorry… Im new so i dont know where i can find feedback-no-forums.php 🙁
Sorry for troubling you
@sam-rohn Thanks, I added a link to the blog post 🙂
The changes to “Improved user capability integration” shouldn’t break any existing solutions out there doing forum restrictions. bbPress 2.5 is going to focus on performance though with ‘Per-forum moderation’ & ‘Forum subscriptions’ slated also for 2.5 this will bring us closer to better forum management for users.
btw, it was in the blog post that “replacing comments with bbPress topics” in 2.5 was mentioned
bbPress 2.4 Released
if you are reading this in the forum and not on the blog (this thread appears as blog post comments and a stand alone topic in the forum), you would not see the blog post or the info therein
maybe a good idea to also link to blog post and list changelog in this type of new version announcement topic, seems lots of forum-centric folks like myself miss some things the way they are, should help avoid such confusion
thanks again 🙂
sam
any specific info on bbpress 2.4 “Improved user capability integration” listed in the changelog ?
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/changelog/
will it bring us any closer to being able to easily restrict access to specific forums and posts/replies contained therein to a specific user role without any 3rd party plugins or hacks, or might this new change break any existing methods of creating such per user role forums ?
thanks for the update, i will be installing on at least one site very soon 🙂

Great version! I will update our website today 😀
Hi there. We’re working on a fix now, and it will be included in 2.4.1.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2405/
The newest version of bbPress has caused a couple of my sites plugins/short-codes to display incorrectly. The plugin in question is Cookie Law Info, it appears to remove it format i.e. no button image and text not centred etc. Also the short-codes for my elegant themes, theme do not appear to be displaying correctly either.
Can you update to the newly released version of bbPress 2.4 and let us know if it is still broken.
It is in the feedback-no-forums.php template \templates\default\bbpress
If you want to modify this template for your theme here check out the docs on theme compat.

@sadr Here are the BuddyPress 2.4 related tickets, you can also the commit log for ‘/includes/extend/buddypress/’ within bbPress.
“replacing comments with bbPress topics” is part of 2.5′s scope.
Where exactly did you hear about that?
Fantastic! Will be upgrading tomorrow.
Could you elaborate on what’s new/changed in the BuddyPress Group Forum integration?
Also very excited to hear “replacing comments with bbPress topics” is part of 2.5’s scope. I checked to see if there was an enhancement issue I could start to follow yet but there doesn’t seem to be one. Will check in again later then.
p.s. you gotta remove the last slash in the Trac link to make it valid.
I have just updated bbPress to 2.4 on a site running the latest version of the Genesis framework. When bbPress is activated, all posts and pages lose their titles – I just get a dash and the site title in the page source. This happens with all other plugins deactivated and with any Genesis child theme, as well as the naked framework itself. This was not an issue prior to the 2.4 release of bbPress earlier today. Any ideas for what I can do to fix this?
Hello hello,
This is my first post so sorry if i post it in the wrong place :$
I wanted to hide my forum by default,I achieved this. Having achieved this, my question: Where in earth do I change the friendly “Oh bother! No forums were found here!” message???? Can’t find it anywhere! I am using bbpress 2.4
Thanks in advance
Hi there
I used the code in my themes function.php file, as detailed above and it worked perfectly. That is, until I upgraded to 2.4 a few minutes ago, now the open forums changed position with the private ones (no problem) but the subforums are back listed on one line again.
The function.php file still contains the code, so I guess something has changed with bbpress.
Would someone know what I should do now?
Many thanks
bbPress 2.4 released! Now you can easily use it with hierarchical replies
Thanks for the hard work to all you dev’s!
Ok thanks for the 2.4 update, I installed it but it does not fix this issue. Maybe this is something I could just edit myself if I had the code and knew the place to add it. Also it would be cool to add an option in bbPress to have the User info to the “left” or “across the top”.
With it to the left there is a lot of wasted page real-estate and it is not responsive friendly.
Forums have always had the user info to the left but I think it’s time to change this or at least have the choice.
Thank you for your time.

First of all, did you copy the extra Dutch language files for bbPress and BuddyPress? You need those in addition to the Dutch language files for WordPress itself.
https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/ will point you in the right direction for making things work with bbPress. (I suggest that you take the “dev branch” for the files, as the other link is outdated.)
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/buddypress/dev points to the BuddyPress version of the language files.
If you’ve got those up and working, you should be able to use the Dutch settings… Although I don’t know if the plugin will enable you to switch languages for the bb’s, as I can’t find that they support them.
In ieder geval veel succes!
Hi *,
I’m trying to setup bbPress and BuddyPress in a bi-language site being English and Dutch. I’m using the PolyLang plugin for that.
However, after following the instructions, everything stays in English.
Any suggestions how to make things work?
Best regards,
Will Moonen
Hi,
I have a buddypress installation + bbpress1, with more than 12000 topic replies. I tried migrating to bbpress2 on the host (online). but after lots of timeout errors, I tried in a localhost. but the problem is, it takes a long time to repair forums. I’m waiting 4 hours for “Recalculate last activity in each topic and forum” beig done, but still it’s on progress.
what can I do to do the migrating process faster?
As I am watching this support forum, most of the time members are left to solve their own problems. Replies 0 (I know that I made this post 3 hours ago but I am reffering in general).
Duh
I don’t think this challenge is related to bbpress, this is apparently a buddpress problem
