Hi there, I followed your setup documentation, but stumbled at the first hurdle.
I created a forum, then used the shortcode to add the forum index to my site.
I want to use the Public viewing, registered user posting setup (no idea where to set this up)
But when I go to the forum index page (http://makermentors.org/forum/) I get the message:
You do not have permission to view this.
Yes the forum is set to public. I thought the public can see the forum? but you have to be registered to participate.
Please help,
Any replies with silly css hacks will be ignored
not sure that attacking potential helpers is the best way to get a response. Using hide in css is a perfectly acceptable way of achieving things even if you think it silly. I prefer non css solutions purely because my css is rubbish 🙂
Anyway in the documentation you will find
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
enjoy !
I think your theme is causing this. Unfortunately many theme authors wrap the various sidebar options into one page.php file nowadays. It gives theme flexibility, but doesn’t help andyone with custom post types such as bbpress. I’ve taken a look and try amending the bbpress.php to
<?php
global $is_tf_blog_page,$post;
$id_post = $post->ID;
if(tfuse_options('blog_page') != 0 && $id_post == tfuse_options('blog_page')) $is_tf_blog_page = true;
get_header();
if ($is_tf_blog_page) die();
?>
<?php $sidebar_position = tfuse_sidebar_position(); ?>
<?php tfuse_shortcode_content('before');?>
<div class="main-row content-row">
<div class="container">
<div class="middle-main content-full">
<div id="primary" class="content-area">
<div class="inner">
<article class="post post-details">
<?php if(!tfuse_page_options('hide_title')):?>
<header class="entry-header">
<h1 class="entry-title"><?php echo get_the_title();?></h1>
</header>
<?php endif;?>
<div class="entry-content">
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php break; endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
</div>
</article>
<?php if ( comments_open() ) : ?>
<?php tfuse_comments(); ?>
<?php endif;?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php tfuse_shortcode_content('after'); ?>
<?php get_footer();?>
which takes out all the stuff relating to sidebars.
Come back if that doesn’t work or errors
Thanks Robkk! I was able to fix and restore the site. Whew!
I installed the Simple Custom CSS plugin and put in the code you suggested above.
Nothing seems to have changed on the site, however. Do I need to give it more time to take effect?
Is it really hard to add this categories thing to core code? So anyone can use them without any hassle? And yes it is so nice to point out some nice websites where people rewrite bbpress code to make it usable. <- But it does not help other 99% users.
I have this theme from ThemeFuse called GameZone, and every changes i have made since the original i usually have fix by my self somehow, but the other day i was tired of PHPBB and converted and move it over completly to BBPress, and it work as is should i got some of the css fix so its almost as ret of the page, the only problem is i found out even i use the themes own “widget” deattachtment for pages i need to be with out side bars Like Guides etc.
Then the BBPress have put my finish touch on hold for the last 36 hrs and i am really irritated over it , because why should a thing i literally find 100 of topics about this problem. Reeally think it is weird there isnt being any solution implented as part of bbpress.
Anyway my forum here is correct size in the “front-page”
1. Frontpage : http://www.playstationforum.dk/debat-forum/
2. Sub-page : http://www.playstationforum.dk/debat/kategori/playstationforum-dk/
As yoy see the sub-page dont have full width even i have remove made a page.php and copy it over to my child theme and rename it to bbpress.php and remmove
<?php get_sidebar();?>
This is mention alot of places and everything there is sidebar related, but i can really not figure out what because no matter what i remove it either remove background completly or remove the sites build up. And i have made a Page for it and use the shortcode. – Still nothing – Hope someone can help. I actually change to bbpress because i though the hardest part would actually import everything from PHPBB
here is my code as it is now
<?php
global $is_tf_blog_page,$post;
$id_post = $post->ID;
if(tfuse_options('blog_page') != 0 && $id_post == tfuse_options('blog_page')) $is_tf_blog_page = true;
get_header();
if ($is_tf_blog_page) die();
?>
<?php $sidebar_position = tfuse_sidebar_position(); ?>
<?php tfuse_shortcode_content('before');?>
<div class="main-row content-row">
<div class="container">
<?php if ($sidebar_position == 'left') : ?>
<div class="middle-main sidebar-left">
<?php endif;?>
<?php if ($sidebar_position == 'right') : ?>
<div class="middle-main content-cols2">
<?php endif;?>
<?php if ($sidebar_position == 'full') : ?>
<div class="middle-main content-full">
<?php endif; ?>
<div id="primary" class="content-area">
<div class="inner">
<article class="post post-details">
<?php if(!tfuse_page_options('hide_title')):?>
<header class="entry-header">
<h1 class="entry-title"><?php echo get_the_title();?></h1>
</header>
<?php endif;?>
<div class="entry-content">
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php break; endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
</div>
</article>
<?php if ( comments_open() ) : ?>
<?php tfuse_comments(); ?>
<?php endif;?>
</div>
</div>
<?php if (($sidebar_position == 'right') || ($sidebar_position == 'left')) : ?>
<div id="secondary" class="sidebar widget-area">
<div class="inner">
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php tfuse_shortcode_content('after'); ?>
<?php get_footer();?>
No, bbpress is up and running – just the search with the above code added to my functions file no longer shows bbpress topics as part of the results. Will click on the recommended fix links above to see if either fix will bring the results back.
Thanks & Happy Easter!

You could hire a coder at any freelance website like http://jobs.wordpress.net/
But yeah like you said its not a huge issue.
Hey – thanks for at least looking into it. If that’s the worst limitation of bbPress, I have no complaints!
I was just asking here because I thought there might be a simple solution. I guess I could hire a coder and post the fix back here.
I only have 1 registration form. Only 1. the bbp register short code has been deleted but I am still getting the emails from that.
could it be spammer going to this?? instead of the bbPress one that you already deleted.
yoursite.com/wp-login.php?action=register
I can’t imagine any of these being real since the old registration is gone.
yeah you might as well turn registration off til you get sorted out on this issue.
I can’t find where to deactivate registration.
go to settings > general uncheck Anyone can Register
If I deactivate registration, will that affect the VFBP
when you uncheck anyone can register it should disable this until you activate it.
@garrett-eclipse
there are likely other people who have posted a topic like this one from 3 years ago.
you can try the code the user placed below for the bbPress custom post types and see if it works.
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-does-blog-become-current_page_parent-with-custom-post-type
try this example, change the colors/remove the text decoration to your liking.
.bbpress bbp-topic-content a,
.bbpress bbp-reply-content a {
color: blue;
text-decoration: underline;
}
I only have 1 registration form. Only 1. the bbp register short code has been deleted but I am still getting the emails from that.
I can’t imagine any of these being real since the old registration is gone.
I can’t find where to deactivate registration. I am using the Visual Form Builder Pro plug in with captcha. That one is working properly If I deactivate registration, will that affect the VFBP?
@geekserve
what looks awful?? the you are already logged in status?? or how the login widget displays the avatar and profile links if you are logged on.
But to really customize how you want the bbPress login widget to be , the easiest thing to do is create a new widget and base most of the code off of the original bbpress login widget.
I tried with twentyfifteen and it still looks the same. Im not sure if i understand it clearly, but if yes, then: If i set it not equal then in the breadcrump it will show the bbpress’s virtual page for the forum root-and in the url also, and not my real wordpress forum page i created with shortcodes.
yes, like so 
And this is how it looks on the page now 
But setting the forum root to be the wordpress page clearly makes the problem, before it looks just perfect.
(down below if images dont appear)
i have my forum built up by [bbp-single-forum id=xxx]-shortcodes
and these are one under each other in the forum name page?
Yes exactly, forum named page with the slug foforum, but on the page i dont have any [bbp-forum-index], i have my forum built up by [bbp-single-forum id=xxx]-shortcodes-tho momentally because of the break these shortcodes gives the result as if i had [bbp-forum-index] instead of [bbp-single-forum id=xxx]. so if i have 3 of [bbp-single-forum id=xxx] shortocdes under eachother, then it results as if i had 3 of [bbp-forum-index] shortcodes.
Sorry if i wasn’t clear. So my problem basically is: BBpress has the forum root option, that i set the same as my wp page’s slug. It works, forum is shown on the wordpress page, and the url is okay, and the breadcrump is also okay.–>but setting the root to show forum on my wp page also breaks my [bbp-single-forum id=xxx]-shortcodes—-it seems to now show up on the page as if it was this shortcode:[bbp-forum-index] instead of each and every one of my[bbp-single-forum id=xxx] shortcodes.
yes there is its called form-user-login.php
using the bbp-login shortcode works as one would expect, editing the user-login form works also, as one would expect. However:
When the user is logged in, it constantly displays a “you are already logged in message”. The reason I want to edit the bbp login widget is because that handles whether or not the user is logged in flawlessly, it just looks plain awful.
So, if I can easily edit the form that is included within the widget, that would be much better
Our phpbb3 forum was migrated to a brand new WordPress installation with bbPress installed (not BuddyPress). It was done by a consultant, so I am not sure how much of the code was custom vs a phpbb3 migration tool.
We got the private topics to show to Participants by using the plugin “Capability Manager Enhanced” and allowing the read_private_topics and read_private_replies. This now allows Participants to read the private topics, but also allows them to see Hidden forums. They cannot see the content/topics of the forums, but they can see the hidden forum titles.
The remapping to default was done with the repair tool. It had no impact, except to require me to go back and reset the handful of users that were not set to Participants.
The big question that seems unresolved in many threads is whether Participants are supposed to see Private topics/replies, or if that is a misprint in the documentation? Why would we have to use the Capability Manager Enhanced plugin to do what the docs say should happen by default.
[bbp-single-forum id=460] im using this momentally, but i`ve tried more codes that did the same.
The link works good as i rewrote the forum root to the wp page`s slug-http://rohamjelvenyek.com/foforum/kategoriak/altalanos/regi-penzek-foruma-az-okortol-napjainkig/
can you give us a shortcode you are using and a link to the resultant page?
Unfortunately, with the upgrade to WordPress 4.x these little snippets no longer work – I read elsewhere that bbpress search had some updates which likely render these snippers useless. : (
If anyone has the updated code, I would really appreciate it!!
Ciao,

Where and how do I insert that? I used the short code [bbp-register] How can I add the Captcha?
