bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

I’m currently working on a project for a client who wants to have the latest reply from any topic in a forum show up on the main bbpress page under the forum name. Is there a way to get this reply from the database using either built in functions or a wp_query. I also need to show the persons avatar, name, and when it was posted. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Dev site is at http://realestateinvesting.how/topics/. I can’t tell you exactly what version of bbpress they are using as the client hired a developer before me who hid the plugins unless your at a user level higher than admin. WordPress version is 4.5

@Robkk any thoughts?

So I made a clean install of WordPress and bbPress (and then after a few test posts I installed buddypress which didn’t change anything) and made 2 users. When I @mention a user in the forum it links correctly regardless of how many spaces I enter. HOWEVER, it does always strip the leading spaces down to 1 in the presentation of the post. If I click Edit on the post the original number of spaces can be seen. Is this intended behavior?

I’m going to make the changes to functions.php to enable the visual editor and to enable buddypress @mention suggestions in bbPress visual editor (like my production site) and see if the error reproduces.

Something has gone wonky and suddenly none of the original posts in my topics are visible. You can see all of the replies and make a reply.

bbPress 2.5.10-6063

I’m running the latest version of WordPress and Buddypress.

[timelessdice]

Thank you very much for the quick reply!

I’m going to look into the information that you have provided and test it out later this week.

by default, Private Forums and topics can be viewed by logged in users. Hidden Forums and topics are only for Admins.

but in my forum, Private Forums and topics can only be seen by admins. when a user enters a private forum, he/she can’t see the topics.

what’s with this behaviour? is this a bug? this is a very basic feature how come it’s not functioning properly?

i have the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress, and have tried it with the default themes.

Hello everyone,

I installed BBPress earlier this week and managed to get some customization etc. But what i’m struggling with is getting the topics to show under the forum on the forum page.

I would like to see the structure of the forums and under the forums the latest topics in this forum. I have searched hours and hours on the internet where some people had succes on this but i couldn’t implement it myself becouse the lack of experience in PHP.

Can someone please help me how i do this?

[RobertL4807]

I have a category setup just for advertisement posts. I want to block that forum category from showing up on the “Latest Posts” page and “Most Popular” etc where real discussion are located.

Is there a way I can keep a category from feeding posts to other pages in BBpress?

Much appreciated.

Hi Hanifascraps,

Seems like i have to register to view the forum, could you possibly create a test user for me and mail it at marzy1995@gmail.com or approve the pending user i have created myself, which goes by the same name.

Hello

we are at the latest version of WP (4.6.1) with Canvas theme, and BBPress 2.5.10

The forum is here http://www.zen-avec-mon-assmat.com/forums-zen-avec-mon-assmat/

We don’t know why but we have this huge bug now : the answers are no more attached to the initial topic… Actually when you click on the initial topic, you just see the latest answer…

HELP please !

[Milan.Nikolic]

I want to display only one topic on the homepage that has the latest reply. So, I want to display only the topic that has the freshest reply. It doesn’t matter to me how old that topic is, as long as it has the freshest reply among all other topics.

Hi,

I’m trying to re-do a site.
Now the new site is using the latest version of WordPress (4.6.1) and bbPress also the latest version (2.5.10)
The previous site is using WordPress 4.5 version with the latest version of bbPress.

I exported my old forum, topics and replies and imported those data into the new site.
When I click on the forum, I got this messages, below:
This forum contains 6 topics and 55 replies, and was last updated by xxx 1 month, 2 weeks ago.
Oh bother! No topics were found here!

I also tried to disable all the plugin, switched to default themes and used this little plugin – http://www.rewweb.co.uk/bbpress-wp4-fix/. But it doesn’t work at all.

Is this plugin compatible with the latest version of WordPress?
Does anyone have the same issue? Any solution for this issue?
Can share with me how to solve this issue?

Regards,
CL

Looks like the key-master role is disappeared. Hope for your help.

Hi there,

I recently found bbpress in hopes to create a forum, but after installing and activating the plugin, there are no changes in the dashboard ( forum button did not appear after activation ).

I also noticed that the 2.5.10 bbpress plugin is not tested with my version of WordPress, which is 4.6.1.

Is there anyway to fix this? I am really looking forward to use this plugin for my forum.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I’m not sure if I should be asking for help here, or over at Buddypress, so just let me know if I need to approach someone else.

I have downloaded Buddypress and BBpress to my site which is using X theme. It seemed to be working well until yesterday when I noticed a glitch. When I am logged in, and visit the various menu items on my page, some show me as being logged in, while others (mainly Home and Chat) show me as being logged out (when I’m actually logged in). Have you any ideas as to what might be going on here?

I created a tester user profile to test the site out, and the problem only seems to be arising on Safari. Firefox and Chrome seem to be working fine, and consistently show me as being logged in throughout the site.

Any help you might be able to offer would be much appreciated!

Using bbPress Version 2.5.10 and WordPress 4.6.1.

Many thanks,

Catherine

Title says it all.

I posted a test topic (my site is not live yet) I’ve now deleted the topic but the counter on the front forum page still says there is one topic in that forum. The freshness is also displayed, when clicked it takes to my page not found.

The forum root slug is forum-testing and the single forum slug is forums.

[lovelyrita78]

Hi,

I’m using the latest versions of WP and bbpress to date. I created some forums and a private forum also using Private groups. Everything perfect. Only one thing: When a normal user (not allowed to see the private forum) is logged in, he can still see that there is another forum due to the link at the bottom that points to the next forum. Of course, when he clicks there, he can’t access it, but still he knows of its existence. Would it be possible to control this “next forum” options somewhere to disable them or, at least, those pointing to a private forum?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hello All,

I would like to upgrade my bbpress plugin on a testing/staging server.
I do not want to reveal the existence of this staging server to any of my users however.
Is there a way to disable all notifications coming from BBPress?

Thank you, Malcolm

As you can see I have integrated bbpress with buddypress and membership 2. These are almost completely configured to the way I want them.

The goal with the content on this free membership site is to make almost all the content readable, but to allow only users to post new topics or replies.

I have added one plugin at a time and test in between so I do not think there are any conflicts.

Matter of fact, everything is great except for 1 thing.

I do not want a non-logged in user to be able to post topics or replies. At the bottom of each of the current topics, there is a reply text entry field. If I log out and try to post a reply, I get this message:

“slow down, you move too fast”

So I either need to figure out how to change that message to “only logged in users can reply or post new topics” or something similar.

Or I need to know how to hide the reply text entry field for non-logged in users.

I have been through settings>forum as well as all the other plugins looking for the appropriate toggle to no avail.

I have combed the forums and google with no success. Thanks in advance for your assistance. Linda @iempoweru

Hi Pascal. This is a test environment and I’m using 2.6a from a PHPBB 3.1.10 forum. I’ve found another thread that also looks at this. https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-2-6-alpha-problem-importing-phpbb/
