I have again tested and check the sticky and pagination count by keeping sticky and super sticky for newer posts and also repaired the counts, this time i have observed the correct count.
Now, my question is, is it possible to make the sticky post visible as sticky or super sticky for a particular duration which can be set through admin panel and after completing the duration that particular post with sticky or super sticky type will convert to normal type?
Need suggestions.
Hi there,
I am using WordPress 4.6, a Genesis child theme, and the latest BBPress. I have set up BBPress and it’s all working well. The only issue is that when I click on a username in the forum the link doesn’t go to the profile page. It goes to a page with all of that users WordPress posts on it.
I don’t seem to have a profile page that I have access to anywhere. Do I need to set up a profile plugin of some kind? How do I control what url those links go to?
Any help would be great!
Thank you!
Thanks all for your answers – very helpful. It looks like you are trying to move towards accessibility. I’ll be happy to help with testing if my client decides to go ahead.
Your theme developers will need to be a little more specific than “bbPress code has some problems”.
If bbPress’ code didn’t change and you updated your theme and now bbPress doesn’t work, then this is not a bPress issue, it is a issue with your theme and what changed in the latest theme update.
I suggest you contact the theme developers again, link them here to this post of mine, if there is a bbPress issue, I’m happy to work with the theme author to fix bbPress if that is the case.
Just so you guys know there is a plugin for bbPress that could do what you guys want.
It is fairly new, so consider testing it out and if you come across any issues contact the developer in their support forum.

I am on WP 4.5.3 and the latest version of bbPress, just installed it yesterday
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.

Do any of the mods or developers have an ETA on when v2.6 might reach beta or perhaps latest stable release?
From the July 13th blog post:
Speaking of bbPress 2.6, we’re working on refactoring per-forum moderators now, and we’ll have a beta ready for everyone to try shortly!
bbPress 2.5.10 – Security Release
I just installed bbPress today so the latest and greatest. WP ver 4.5.3. When I add forums and topics they do not show up on the Forums page when logged out. When logged in they do show up. These have been set up as Forum, Open and Public. Topics have been set up as Normal and Open under the appropriate forum. Why would they not show up when logged out but do show up when logged in?
try switching themes to see if it us definitely the latest update, and then contact the theme author
We would love have full WCAG 2.0 compliance 🙂
Our open tickets for further improvements are here: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&component=General+-+Accessibility&order=priority
We will also follow WordPress’ lead and any initiatives by the accessibility team
https://make.wordpress.org/accessibility/
There is also the accessibility team handbook: https://make.wordpress.org/accessibility/handbook/
For bbPress much of what is needed right now is testing of our open tickets to make sure we are on the right track, any help would be graciously welcome 🙂

Hi,
I’m having some issues between bbpress and Ultimate Member plugin.
Ultimate Member has a feature that lets us add custom permissions on the menu’s links, allowing X user role to see Y links on the menu. It always works well, except when I’m on the forums root (smilang.com/forums), where all logged-in users see the website menu as group X, no matter their current role. If they go on a specific forum or topic, the issue goes away and the menu gets back to normal.
See the images for an example:
On the forums root (Not OK)
Elsewhere on the forums (OK)
I’ve also contacted Ultimate Member’s support team about this, I just did a plugin and theme conflict test, it doesn’t seem like it’s my theme nor any other plugins than UM and bbpress. I’m waiting for their answer now but I was wondering if you could find anything that would cause this.
I’m using bbpress 2.6-alpha, I just updated in hopes it would fix things but it doesn’t change anything. WordPress 4.5.3
Thanks!

Hello we just installed bbPress and have a minor issue. It is probably a setting or something not I have not set up correctly im guessing.
Ok so the forum itself loads up ok fine, example:
Test Forum
However if we goto
https://aont.uk/forums/
The page does not show anything really worthwhile.
I have even created a page called “Forums” and added just the line [bbp-forum-index] onto the page, but still it shows up nothing of any use.
Anyone know what is going on here and how I could fix it?
Many thanks
I had a member post a snippet or two of php in a couple of replies without closing the tag. The order of the replies are now messed up. Sometimes a reply will post up before the last one. Sometimes it will go to the top. On some topics they seem to be fine.
I have deleted all of the entries that had code in them. I have run the repair tools several times.
I have even installed the “Sort topic replies” plugin. The sorting does not appear to be working with that, however the option to always have the main topic post at the top does work and does make it a bit better.
I’m using the latest version and the link is http://www.dualcreatives.com/forums/ but most of this is happening in the private member forums. The public forum only has a few and I don’t see it happening on those.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I might fix this?
Yikes! See previous post immediately above… when I finished with the above tests, I returned to the root forum display (public view) and the one forum I’d started setting up was gone, I assume as a byproduct of my 2 failed post attempts above. It was still present in the admin view of the forums, and editing/updating it (correcting some spelling in the headline and description) made it re-appear in the public view…
Gonna go try a couple of other forum plug-ins now, but wish I could use the one supported by WP creators… hopefully, we’ll get a solution soon and can come back to this plug-in…
ok, so something is turning it off.

I suspect that your theme or another plugin might be interfering.

Yes, I will set this up on my computer.
Is there a tool to test a testing site’s performance – in terms of loading speed? That is the principle problem I am facing.
Thank you so much for your help.
ok, I’d strongly recommend you have a testing site.
Creating a Test Site
Whilst it will take an initial effort to set up, it is well worthwhile
I have WordPress 4.5.3 running AccessPress Pro theme on my site with the latest version of bbpress at 2.5.10.
I have the Search Function in my forum unfortunately the forum is not public. When I try to search, it only searches through the WordPress posts that I’ve created and not through the forum. I’ve searched with words that I know are included in the topics and topic names.
The search is doing the literal opposite of what I want it to do and what it says it should be doing.
