I’ve just installed bbPress and have come across a bit of an issue. Hopefully it’s something I’ve done wrong rather than anything else 🙂
The forum will display fine – I’ve set up a default forum, topic, etc – except for the forum root page. That appears as blank.
I’ve kept everything as default so the root is ‘forums’. Here it is… http://artiss.co.uk/sandbox/forums/
Blank page. Not even a 404. No, I don’t have any posts or pages set up with the same name. I even changed this to another name and still got the same.
However, a direct link to the forum I set up works… http://artiss.co.uk/sandbox/forums/forum/test-forum/
Anybody have an idea what the problem is?
Thanks,
David.
Hi all,
I’m trying to figure out with BBPress installed and activated on my latest WP 4.4 installation.
I’ve successfully activated BBPress but i doens’t display in my dashboard .
Is it a known issue ? It worked fine with WP 4.3.1
thanks a lot !
So something is creating an extra one. You will have to test:
– Switch to a standard theme and try inserting a topic
– Stop all plugins except bbPress (stay on the standard theme), insert a topic, then start reactivating one plugin after another and everytime insert a topic.

on admin panel, there is also two records. my site is live but still in test.
Hello,
When I create a new Topic or reply, bbpress is creating another topic or forum as duplicate and the wierd part is the name of duplicated topic/forum is just (0).
I am using BPtoolkit only.
Do you have any idea why I am facing with that?
My WP version is 4.4, bbversion is the latest one.
Hi Naerean,
WP 4.4.1 Release Candidate is out. If you want to test it, you can find it here
Hopefully in 1 week it will be available for production, at least I hope.

WordPress 4.4.1 RC (Release Candidate) was released earlier today, if your able to test it and make sure this issue is resolved that would be great 🙂
4.4.1 Release Candidate
Expect the main 4.4.1 release to be released later this week pending the RC release testing.
No update as yet, but between WordPress and bbPress I think we can add some unit tests that will add a set of examples of possible permutations and combinations of when this occurs and mitigate as best we can against as many of these as possible.
Hi,
bbPress is already at the latest stable version (2.5.8) and works great. There are some issues with WP 4.4 (mainly for hidden/private forums) and I’m waiting for WP 4.4.1 like many others, but the issue is there, not in bbPress.
The lastest info I have is that it should be available before Mid January, but that’s just unofficial data.
If you are referring to bbPress 2.6 (nothing to see with WP issues) then I can tell you that tests are fully ongoing (well, a bit less in the last week, but everybody deserves some rest), so I do hope that shortly 2.6 will be out also. You can already test the alpha development version here.
Pascal.
When is BBPress going to be updated for latest WP version?
Thanks Robin W
I am using Advada and bbPress 2.5.8-5815.
I have replied to a few of the comments on my website and now they show MY post as the latests so I was wondering if there was a blip
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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
interesting problem
the link http://www.bruuuce.com/members/si/ resolves to http://www.bruuuce.com/theboard/topic/si-on-sabbatical/
so the sending page – eg a forum page correctly links to where it thinks the profile is. Something in between then redirects the url to the result.
I’d suggest it is probably theme or plugin related.
As a test :
Plugins
Deactivate all but bbpress and buddypress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error. If not try bbpress on it’s own.
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Hi,
Some people that came here for questions were using the Divi theme and it seemed to work fine as the questions were related to layout.
For the Lifestyle Pro, some people copied bbpress file to a child theme to be able to tune things.
But I fully agree with Robin that a test site is what you need !
Pascal.
seems it is pasting the date of the original topic, not the date of it’s latest reply.
so the site is posting

when it should be posting
<a title="Reply To: 2016 Targets" href="http://www.harrisonchapmankarate.com/forums/topic/2016-targets/#post-3442">17 hours, 55 minutes ago</a>
what theme and plugins are you using?
no reason why you shouldn’t use either of your ideas anive – just amek sure you do have a test site
Make a fresh post if you have further queries
Regards
Robin
Thanks Robin and dongvan03 for your advice. But I am still a newbie when it comes to testing and all this stuff about creating a sub-domain. Maybe I should just get another cheap domain and webhost and reproduced test pages on that website to test out each of those themes. On the other hand, I could use back that third website located at ICV where the initial crash first occurred since it is a simple one page website on a local government sponsored grant that is going to be terminated shortly and which I am no longer promoting.
I will carry out the plugin testings and come running back here again if I encounter problems along the way. But it will be great if anyone in here happened to use the same themes as me and can share their experiences.
The best advice I can give you is to create a test site for each of your live sites.
This not only allows you to test new plugins, be confident in taking and using backups but also be happy that you can re-create your site should your host provider go bankrupt and you lose everything.

Hi All,
I have installed latest bbPress in our website. We have few users on our site as subscribers role. What I need that if admin post any topic from backend then all the users of our site get automatically subscribed of that topic or they will get automatic email notification as new forum topic is posted.
I have tried this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-notify/ as well as different tricks mentioned in different forums but nothing works.
So, if anyone provide any solution or suggestion, I will be thankful.
Hello,
I’m sorry, I do not speak English 🙂
Still, I created a translation for bbPress 2.5.8 and some of its extensions (Ultimate Member – Profile Completeness 1.1.9 and other working). Translation into the Czech language, already tested. Can be add it somewhere?
Plus I found a bug in the Czech translation, which is in the profiles – is possible fix it somewhere?
I’m sorry, but I’m almost blind, so I hard to find answers.
Thank you for your advice.
Mějte se krásně, Vendulka
Do you still have a problem?
I am unsure from your various rants what exactly the issue is – I need a problem definition to be able to help, and don’t know from your name ‘iapologizepleasedeleteme’ whether you have now fixed your issue.
If you still have the problem then – given that you have been pressing lots of buttons – I would suggest you contact you host provider and ask then to revert your site to a previous backup – almost all host providers take backups every 24 hours. This will get you site working again.
I would then invest some time in creating a test site – to do development in your live site is just stupid, as you have found out. See https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/testing-your-bbpress-installation/creating-a-test-site/
There is a new fix, rather an alternate that better detects and reflects the root cause of the issue:
Replace if ( 'publish' === $parent->post_status ) { with if ( ! empty( $parent ) ) {
The full details can be viewed in the WordPress ticket:
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/35084
And the latest patch:
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/35084/35084.5.diff
Also please refrain from email, the bbPress team can only respond to issues we can read here in the public forums or our bug tracking and reporting system. If the current fix here is not working for you please add that here with as much detail as you can so that we can try and configure our forum configuration to match yours and reproduce the issue.
