It’s not registering the user; the user becomes a “participant” on the blog they have viewed. The only person who can register a user is me.
Example of what happens: a blog on my multisite is http://theglobalschool.net/science/news . The only user for this blog is the administrator.
Another member of the multiside views this blog, and immediately becomes a “participant” of this blog. I don’t want this to occur because, when students log into the site, on the toolbar they see a whole bunch of blogs listed under “my blog” which they cannot contribute to.
I have the latest version of WordPress, and have tried deleting bbPress and reinstalling to no avail.
Suggestions?
I am migrating a forum database from the latest version of SMF to the latest version of bbPress. In SMF, many posts had multiple line-breaks in between sentences, paragraphs, images, videos, etc. It appears that WordPress, and bbPress, strip out multiple line breaks and limit them to a single line break (probably to prevent people from creating giant vertical gaps for no reason that other users have to scroll through). The way that bbPress deals with line-breaks from the SMF database migration was not very clean. It was mostly just random blocks of text and sentences without line breaks in between paragraphs that existed in SMF. There were PRE tags added in sometimes, and seemingly inconsistent P tags as well. BR tags appear to have been converted into empty TT tags. I was able to correct some of these formatting issues by tweaking lots of CSS (and a little JavaScript) in the default bbPress template. At the same time, I have also tested how line-breaks work separate from the migrated database and it appears that this maximum-of-one-line-break philosophy is on purpose. I see where that’s coming from, but I want to allow it anyways.
I have read of methods where admins (and/or other users) can manually type in br tags as html with non-breaking spaces in between them as a hacky method of moving down three or four lines for whatever reason. I don’t want to have to train users how to do something that should be as simple as press enter like in any text editor.
How can I simply achieve this in bbPress’s default comment forms? I don’t want users to have to type in…
<br /> <br />
…when they can simply just press enter twice in the textarea input.
I have same problem, I have installed the latest bbpress plugin to my wordpress site. There isn’t a single tab or subcategory to be found in my dashboard that relates to BBPress.
give us solution.
This is strange..
Why is my filter not working. When I look at my screenshot you can see that this array has an apply_filter() function before the variable/array goes through the paginate_links().
This filter I should use, I expect if I want to make any changes to the array before it gets pulled into the paginate_links() function – right?
So I created this add_filter function to test if I can change the <– arrow –> symbols. But for some reason no success at all.
function xx_my_stuff( $bbp_topic_pagination ) {
$bbp_topic_pagination = array(
'prev_text' => 'test',
'next_text' => 'test',
);
return $bbp_topic_pagination;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_topic_pagination', 'xx_my_stuff' );
Geez, I swear it was letting me pick the categories before, but went back and tested and it seems fine now. Must be gremlins in my machine. Thanks very much; this is very helpful.
Yes – I seem to attract these!
No – I’m using a child theme properly and haven’t edited the core files. I’ve used a couple of functions, but I activated the parent and the problem remained so it can’t be in any of that.
I haven’t altered the theme yet because the theme developers confirmed it couldn’t be their theme, and also the website settings will drop out if I do so. It’s a last resort, and I’d be better copying the site into a test environment to test that theory.
Disabled all plugins, cleared all caches – problem still there.
The freshness area is being affected by a plugin: BBP Last Post. It wasn’t installed by me, but I’ve tried deactivating it and the notification still isn’t complete.
bbPress does not do this by default. Contact your theme author again if it is indeed your theme doing this.
You can do a quick test to see if it is your theme doing this. Switch to a default theme temporarily to see the default message bbPress has.
I have an idea of what the theme author might have done though. All I can say is for them to copy the default bbPress templates and start fresh and create their own bbPress styles and functionality.
Or I guess you can create a child theme and do the same thing.
If it is another plugin causing this, check that out.
I got this up and running last night. The Postmark guide was a bit confusing but I got there in the end. I’m testing this today with 20 testers, so we’ll see how they get on.
What is your site link so I can see what happens if I log in?
Also send me some test user login details that has the role Subscriber/participant.

Hello,
When bbPress is activate on my website, I can login without problem but then I can’t logout anymore (I have to delete cookies).
I’ve tested on a fresh WordPress install without plugins (except bbPress of course).
WordPress : 4.3
bbPress : 2.5.8
Thanks, @robkk!
This adds a vertical scrollbar only, same cut off width (have it at 320er query already).
Hugging all elements of the forms (tested via form-reply.php) with a new, then styled div, as the form-legend shall be also responsive, also does not work.
Just don’t find the reason, will have another look.
New topic and reply forms are cut off on the right side at screens smaller than 430px width.
Tried several combinations of FORM#new-post, .bbp-reply-form and FIELDSET.bbp-form, with width:100% or a fixed size for smaller screens. Testing with
.bbp-topic-form,
.bbp-reply-form{
width:10px;
}
for example effects that the form gets smaller in width, but not 10px or any other wished px-width. It will be always fix at a width of maybe 300px. Could there be some default CSS already that I don’t see?
Are these forms responsive by default, anyway?
Thanks for any help!
The information you got was probably for the bbPress v1 standalone forum software. You can tell the information is from bbPress v1 when it is about 4 or more years old.
The latest version of bbPress is now a WordPress plugin. So any admin area would use the WordPress admin. Same thing with BuddyPress they use use the WordPress administration area.
To remove a large number of topics.
Go to Topics > All Topics in the WOrdPress administration area.
Enable each checkbox by the topics you want to Trash
Click the Bulk Actions dropdown and select Move to Trash
Hit Apply to move all those topics to the trash.
To remove a large number of topics in a specific forum
Go to Topics > All Topics in the WOrdPress administration area.
In the dropdown at the top that say In All Forums, click that to select the specific forum you want to delete topics in, then click the filter button beside it.
Enable each checkbox by the topics you want to Trash
Click the Bulk Actions dropdown and select Move to Trash
Hit Apply to move all those topics to the trash.
To delete all the topics in your topic trash.
Go to Topics > All topics in the WordPress administration area.
Hit the action link that says Trash, it is next to other action links in a row like Spam and Pending.
Clicking the trash action link will show you all the topics in your trash, hitting empty trash will remove all topics in your trash permanently.
To trash all topics by a specific use
You need to go to the user’s profile
Click the menu item Topics Started
Go to each topic and trash it manually using the admin links.
Hi
we run latest wordspress 4.3 +bbpress 2.5.8+buddypress 2.3.3 and we are just told that
“bbPress also has admin side, and there you can easily remove large number of topics filtered by forum or user”
I did google and someone say admin panel path is /bb-admin ? but it shows 404 and I do see it on top menu bar either
is there any any admin panel for bbpress/buddypress or it is just integrated with wordpress’s admin?
it NOT, how to do these “remove large number of topics filtered by forum or user”? I do not see function like that on wordpress’s admin though~
Latest WP and latest BB installed, using private replies, moderation and attachments plugins.
Moderation plugin is set to allow everything to show without pending. But any new topic and any new reply and any private reply sits unpublished as either pending or awaiting moderation.
Thanks for your help…

the patch might not be created right. I don’t think you create the patch from the plugin version but maybe the latest alpha version or the latest version you can download from the trunk using SVN.
You can download/download using SVN using the url from here.

Are you sure how you inserted the filter will not cause any issues?
I am specifically talking about how $blacklist = both of these.
$blacklist = trim( get_option( 'moderation_keys' ) );
$blacklist = apply_filters('bbp_moderation_keys', $blacklist);
Here are a bunch of helpful guides that I am just going to drop here.
Working With Patches
Installing Via SVN
I am running a WordPress network with the latest version of Buddypress and bbpress. The site is http://theglobalschool.net/science and it is run for high school students.
My problem is that every time a blog is viewed, that viewer is added as a user, which makes things very confusing after a short while. Is there any way I can prevent this from happening? I noticed there is a checkbox in the settings for forums but it doesn’t seem to resolve the problem.
Thanks,
Rob.

1. Well yeah the cache staying not removing is the issue, it could be a bug in WordPress itself since that caches the oembeds. What peice of code did you use to fix this?
12. I couldn’t duplicate the issue on latest Firefox on W10 using the html5 blank theme.
Yeah I know, I bookmarked most of the suggestions for features for the bbPress plugin on this site, but if you are experiencing some kind of issue, then why not help out too.
What I got from you that could possibly make the bbPress plugin are.
option to turn off feeds.
add topic auto-suggestion (might be better for the forum search though)
Integrate some plugins like report content (maybe external links)
Export and import settings
View counter
Custom notices
Specific forum permissions
Avatar system
Most of the SEO things could be best to have in a separate plugin, or should be left to the theme and how it is set up.
@pinkishhue
The forum requests and feedback is for this type of thing. If you think some codex article should be available, features should be in bbPress, this site bbpress.org should have some style fixes, etc. this forum is where you post all that in. If you need to create a new topic with a list of suggestions in a list from yourself, you can do that.
The way the menu items show up has always been like that since bbPress v1 standalone. It could be easier for users to see all the post types in one section, this might need another opinion though. I think it is fine either way though. It will be annoying to change all the codex articles if we do change that though haha.
Alright I am going to just test out this theme later today to see all the issues it presents and try to resolve them.
Try this on a local development server or just a test site in general o the site you are trying to import from. Cloning the whole site might be the best way to import from one WordPress site to another WordPress site.

1. If the oEmbeds are disabled in the options, then how would I still have oEmbed cache accumulating?
12. I use Firefox (latest) on Linux and Android. I occasionally use Chromium (also the latest version on Linux).
By the way, thanks for all of your help. However, keep in mind that my main purpose for this thread is to give the BBPress developers some ideas rather than fix my problems.
It’s not a solution to the problem but just a work around.
What does this mean?
I think this has something to do with it, and it’s probably part of some Gulp testing-thing they are using or so.

I don’t think any styles have changed in the beta release, if there is you can use the default CSS styles from the latest stable version.
It might be better to copy the files into a theme you are working on though instead of the beta plugin. It should still work.
1. That is oembed cache you are removing with WP-Sweep, not the oembeds itself.
5. That was just 8-9 months ago. Some plugins do not need to update as frequently as others. This plugin basically is just using some bbPress hooks and filters to create its functionality for itself.
12. What browser are you using? I could test this in a minute. And I guess any theme that is based off of the HTML5 boilerplate like HTML Blank theme, I would come across the same issue as you??
