The plugin is not finished yet, documentation will be made (available) when the plugin is done. For now you’ll have to look into the files and search this forum. Because this question has been answered already.
See https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-and-studiopress-genesis-can-someone-please-tell-me-if-this-works for instance.
In short: bbPress uses WordPress users, your users can register like they would normally for the WordPress installation. There are shortcodes for login / register pages though.
Thanks both,
I am using the plugin version 2.0.
The phrase “Cheap Benidorm hotels and apartments” is the title of the home page, but not the menu title, which is of course ‘home’.
Successfully disable with the code above… that will do for now!
many thanks,
Glyn
Strange, it doesn’t do that for me.
Which version are you using? The plugin (if so, which version), the stand-alone version?
A quick (& dirty) fix to hide the breadcrumbs would be:
.bbp-breadcrumb {
display:none;
}
domain/wp-login.php?action=register should do the trick.
There are shortcodes for the following though, so you might be able to make your own register page (I’m running bbPress in combination with BuddyPress so I don’t need it):
[bbp-login]
[bbp-register]
[bbp-lost-pass]
Making a subdomain is the exact same process. It has nothing to do with bbPress and everything to do with your WordPress Network configuration. It’s all neatly laid out in the codex. This is for advanced users though.
If you just want the sub-domain for cosmetic reasons (i.e. it just looks tidier) that’s not really good enough reason to set up a network site. You have to realize that enabling Network comes with a lot of implications on how you can use and extend your WordPress site. For example, only a small percentage of the plugins in the WordPress repository have been tested and made to work in a Network environment.

If you ask when bbPress 2.0 will be released, your post will be deleted. The answer will always be the same with every version: As soon as it’s ready.

oh. that’s so sad
Pimarts, thanks for the information.
Hi,
I’m not expert in BBPress. I like to build my new forum in BBPrss 2.0. In BBPrees 2.0, the functions are different from BBPrees 1X. Where I can find the function references like http://codex.wordpress.org/
Please give me the link.
New here!
I got all the way through installation last week and testing of bbpress within a protected WordPress site, and love the forum – I so appreciate the simplicity and ease of the thing, esp. for someone who has little experience with this sort of thing.
My only issue at this point is that once anyone is logged in and posts a reply or new topic, the updated reply/topic displays fine UNTIL returning to the main forum page at which point it is necessary to log out and then log back in to actually see the updates. Again, I’m so pleased with the forum itself, but this may be the thing that keeps my boss from letting the forum go live 
WP version is 3.1.4 and I’m using the forum as my home page of the blog. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks so much!
I’d suggest looking at using bbPress 2.0 within WordPress. bbPress 2.0 is pre-release now, but was expected to be gold when WP 3.2 came out. WP 3.2 was released on Monday, but I haven’t seen an update for bbPress 2.0. The standalone version (1.x) of bbPress is expected the same time bbPress 2.0 is released, but I haven’t followed the progress of that version.
A phpbb3 to bbPress 2.0 converter is in the works. The ticket for it is https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1547. I’m guessing work on it will pick up once bbPress 2.0 goes gold. My understanding is the converter will keep usernames, passwords, and threads, but I don’t know about mail.
You will be able to fully customize the theme using either version of bbPress. Since I’d recommend using bbPress 2.0 inside WordPress, the relevant instructions are for creating WP themes (https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development) and adding bbPress compatibility (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-theme-compatibility).
The Akismet antispam plugin is not running here. I’d suggest installing it as you develop your own solution because you may find it meets your needs.
There’s another fix, but it’s not preferred if you ask me:
Put this in your CSS:
<br />
.bbPress #sidebar {<br />
display:none;<br />
}<br />
This hides the sidebar from view in the browser, the code will be loaded anyway though (that’s why I don’t prefer it).
Edit/update:
Oh and then you ofcourse need to make the left area wider too, I think it will be something like this according to your code:
.bbPress #left-area {
width: 875px; /* change that 875 to whatever width you want/need */
}
I just tried your code, but it did not work for me.

Hi I am looking for a plugin which will let users to hide part of the post content from other users. The data would be visible only for the author and admins. I use bbpress as support forum and I sometimes clients want to post info like server login or smth. Do you know any plugin which can do this?
i can use wordpress to use this forum. my site is coded from scratch. except for the forums. i use phpbb. i like the layout sequence of this forum and wanted to use it. but i can probably just edit the phpbb code myself to get the results i want.
spambots on an official site promoting a service rubs me the wrong way and is a turn off
PS: I’m thinking of having it check for youtube links that are not inside the shortcode, also. But I’ll get to that when I can be bothered.
My post toolbar plugin handles youtube by way of shortcode [youtube]link[/youtube].
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-post-toolbar/
I also will have the same problem when I upgrade my site in that the old posts will just be links to the video, rather than embedding them. Personally I don’t see a problem here though
I didn’t test these myself, but in the bbp-core-shortcodes.php file (of RC1 from the trac) it states the following shortcodes:
[bbp-login][
[bbp-register]
[bbp-lost-pass]
So those might work.
is there a shortcode for user registration and login?
Aside from the spam replies, nobody else with this problem?
I run a combination of bbPress & Buddypress and this worked for me, I did put the following code in functions.php:
function disable_all_widgets( $sidebars_widgets ) {
if (is_bbpress()) {
$sidebars_widgets = array(false);
remove_all_actions('bp_register_widgets');
unregister_sidebar( 'bp_core_widgets' );
}
return $sidebars_widgets;
}
add_filter( ‘sidebars_widgets’, ‘disable_all_widgets’, 1, 1);
This removed all widgets aside from the user login, but that’s quite handy to be present at the forum pages. I put that on top of the forums with CSS.
Hi again 
I have remedied a part of this by making a new page template for the page that shows bbpress.
http://www.sithinquisitors.com/sith-inquisitor-forums/
My problem now is that all other pages apart from the forum main page wont use the template page I have made and revert back to the three column default template of the site. Such as http://www.sithinquisitors.com/old-republic-forum/class-discussion/
Is there something that I am missing to get this to work? thanks!
@derpdiddy – I have no affiliation with bbPress other than being a user of the software. I have not coded a single line or made any other contribution other than trying to answer some of the questions on the forums so developers like JJJ can spend their time responding to the more complicated questions.
That being said, I would like to help you, but something in your responses is rubbing me the wrong way. In order to help you I need to know if you currently are or are willing to use WordPress on the site you want to convert from phpBB.
This forum need a Thanks button!
Thank you Erlend
