Sounds good, thanks! I will post what I can once I get my site moved.
So I have followed the steps on https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/import-troubleshooting/ and have isolated the first failure when moving reply 102607. I have no idea how to map 102607 to the phpbb post. Any ideas?
To a page with the register shotcode.
if you have a child theme just copy the templates form-reply.php and form-topic.php into a folder called bbpress
then find where the code is and just edit the templates replace a word like login with a link like this
<a href="http://mysitename.com/login" title="login"></a>
I have done some more debugging and found the issue to be with the default method 1 page Forums. This error is only shown on the forums page. If I go to my own page with the short-code on it the error is not shown.
If I change the slug to that of my own forum page then the error is shown so it is tied to what is stored in the default forum page slug.
I could live with this except that if you click the breadcrumb word Forums then of course you are taken to the default page with the error rather than my page. Is there any way to change the slug other than through the options page? If there is I could live with this workaround.
Hi,
The code tag doesn’t work on my forum when there is a quotation mark or square brackets in the code.
The ----- is caused when WordPress has dropped it’s authentication session with MySQL.
As to further improvements, that is cool and would be great, using the same username and password here if you can create a a new ticket on Trac, our bug tracker here that would be great, if your familiar with SVN you can check out the source and upload a patch.
Finally! I find the solution for this issue. flush_rewrite_rules () doesn’t work if you don’t add rules before call it. So we need add our rules on plugin activation and only after this call flush_rewrite_rules (). I call this function and pass false arg because we need soft flush, without .htaccess rewriting.
Github repo already updated.
@pooledge your forum http://pupyshevo.hol.es/forums/forum/9/ work perfectly with digit in links right now.
what I’d like to do is by default show all existing (not just most used) topic tags when someone is creating a topic from within WP
so your saying the way how categories are displayed in backend you want for topic-tags in the frontend.
ive seen a support forum for one my themes authors site i was on have that kind of functionality (but they dont use bbpress), they use something custom.
i think how its done on their site is just some jquery , and kind of does the same functionality that the bbpress quicktag toolbar does.
like set up some a set of words then you click the button and it automatically inserts into the tag area.
but setting it up where all the tags show in the frontend would be difficult , it would probably need a hacked version of the topic tag cloud widget.
but yeah i just did a brainstorm/analysis on what you might need.
im not sure how to do this , as im very much confused by jquery and javascript
i would hire a developer to this kind of job.

I’m about to setup my first wordpress site for my kid’s school.
There are two main topics I want to setup which are forums and galleries.
For bbPress I’d like to shar the user data with WordPress. Unfortunately I can’t find the “WordPress Integration” section of the “Settings” area in your bbPress admin, like it’s menioned at http://codex.bbpress.org/legacy/integrating-with-wordpress/
Has the way on how to integrate changed for wp4? Any hints on how to get this working?
Thanks!
there is alot of documentation talking about styling bbpress.

Robin’s last fix works, at least on my site. Using WP4.0 and bbpress 2.5.4, this plugin worked.
Theme : Method (mysitemyway)
Plugins: bbpress 2.5.4, buddypress 2.0.2, admin bar 1.0, cms tree page view 1.2.30, Random Text 0.3.0, Smooth Scroll Up 0.8.4, Tweetomatic Pro 1.0, Widget Shortcode 0.2.3.
Thanks Robin.
Hi,
I have been tasked with creating a site with a forum on it, i have chosen to do so with WordPress. I have installed WP 3.9.2 and BBpress 2.5.4. I then created at page where users can log in, but when they try, they get redirected to http://www.ellevej.com/wp-login.php with the message HTTP 403 – forbidden.
When they refresh this page, the standard WP login form shows, and they are now able to log in through that form.
I have used the shortcode for bbpress login [bbp-login], as i dont want a sidebar on the site.
Do any of you have any suggestions as to why this happens?
I guess I’m asking what folder and file contains the page template for http://www.paraquadaccess.com/forums/forum/forums/
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1
I used IE – all I saw what that the sidebar was consistent between the site and forums and topics. Since you didn’t detail exactly what was different between the pages, I may not have seen the error !
Like many others, my bbpress forums broke when I upgraded to WP 4.0 – all of the topics were still listed, and the pages were there, but you would only see the top of the topic with voice/post counts and a form to reply. The entire content of the topic is missing.
I’ve been following the discussions here and I have none of the plug-ins that appear to be creating the conflicts. I’m not using s2member, SearchExclude, or Ravanassi plug-ins.
I am using the following plug-ins:
I’m running a premium theme (with expired memebrship -so no updates and no word from the original author whether the update would even cure the problem as the themes do not support bbpress) – however I can get in there and dig around the code, if needed.
Any help would be appreciated!
So far- I’ve rolled back to WP 3.9.2 – but, obviously this is not a viable long-term solution.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
L
a thing you could do is hide the search button and add a placeholder so users know what it is, and also make it kind of like wordpress search in terms of looks.
copy form-search.php into your child theme and overwrite the code with this.
<?php
/**
* Search
*
* @package bbPress
* @subpackage Theme
*/
?>
<form role="search" method="get" id="bbp-search-form" action="<?php bbp_search_url(); ?>">
<div>
<label class="screen-reader-text hidden" for="bbp_search"><?php _e( 'Search for:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label>
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="bbp-search-request" />
<input placeholder="Search the forums" tabindex="<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>" type="text" value="<?php echo esc_attr( bbp_get_search_terms() ); ?>" name="bbp_search" id="bbp_search" />
</div>
</form>
Just got an email there was activity in this thread, and it got me over here to share:
This morning I put an animated smiley under my profile information at the bottom using this plugin! Didn’t know if you could put images in the text field option, but you can, at least with my setup, haven’t checked default theme, etc.
I tested it with both bbCode, which I have active through a different plugin, and html.
I’ve tried method 1 and 2. Neither works right.
Method 1 is on now and you can see it at http://schoolofbookkeeping.com/answers/
Method 2 (with the shortcode) works when I visit the page but shows what you see on the link above when I choose “go back to forum lists”.
I use X Theme from Themeco. I can’t imagine that is the issue?
@johnjack
There seems to be several symptoms, some see topics not showing just replies, some has 404 errors wherever they are (topics, replies even forums), and some have issues with child forums.
At the moment the scenario is that since bbpress on a default theme doesn’t have these issues, then it is likely that it is a combination of wp4.0, bbpress AND one or more others.
Plugins that use code relying on searches are definitely one area, I suspect themes that look or rely on post types are another. You issue may be a third.
You seem to have disabled plugins, but have you used a default theme such as twentytwelve?
I have bbpress 2.5.4 running with twentyten and a top forum of category, a sub forum with that forum as parent, and a sub forum of that subforum all displaying fine.
If I can replicate a scenario, I can start to see if the issue is the one I’m looking at.
the following will disable the toolbar for all but admins
//disable toolbar for non-admins
if (!current_user_can('manage_options')) {
show_admin_bar(false);
}
put this in your function file

Breadcrumbs
but hiding the breadcrumbs per the directions didn’t work for some reason.
You’d need to tell us what you did to help you further
Forums name
That initial breadcrumb belongs to your theme, so you’ll need to query it with your theme provider.
Any idea how long it’s going to be before Live Preview is ready for prime time?
that code is written by a private individual, so no-one but him can say when it would be live, and I don’t know if it works !
Finally, how do I make the posts and the editor wider. Is that CSS controlled by my theme or bbPress?
theme !
WordPress 4.0 running Montezuma theme.
bbPress Version 2.5.4
Site location: http://ecopsi.org/forums/
Breadcrumbs
Including the theme I have three sets of breadcrumbs with the WP theme breadcrumbs at the top and which follow the forums well enough. Below are of course the two bbPress breadcrumbs. I want to hide both the bbPress breadcrumbs. The one immediately above the forums and the partial one on the right next to the search box.
I found some helpful things here

and here
bbPress Styling Crib
Unfortunately the directions assume expertise beyond mine. I was able to do things like float [subscribe] to the right of the console but hiding the breadcrumbs per the directions didn’t work for some reason. My php kung fu isn’t much to brag about.
Forums Name
A more experienced person helped me change the name [Forums] to [The EcoPsi Forums] but it only partially worked and didn’t change the name in the primary breadcrumbs at the top. It also didn’t change the name of the root of the forums which is still [Forums]. I want make the [Home] link at the root of the forums go away. It annoyingly tempts me to click thinking I’ll return to the root of the forums but instead takes me to root of the website.

Because the site is live, I decided to share one page for both the English and French side for now. But eventually, I would like to have a separate page for each English and French, but I want them both to share the same forum shortcode.
Hello,
I’ve got a simple forum set up using the shortcode. I used the same shortcode on the translated page (French). When bbPress is activated, I have noticed the following issues:
– The top right language switcher re-directs me to the french homepage instead of the community forums page. If bbpress is de-activated, the language switcher works as advertised. All other pages are fine.
– The shortcoded forum on the French page does not carry over custom css styles I input with the Simple Custom CSS plugin. Seems like it has to do with the page template I am using. For some reason, the English side automatically uses my theme’s ‘Upcoming Events’ template. I have the option to choose on the French side, but if I pick that same ‘Upcoming Events’ one, the custom css colours do not carry over.
And lastly, and I believe this is a concern of many. A moderator to the site can not create or modify forums – which I find ridiculous. Any work around to this?
Any help would be appreciated
