Hello,
I’ve a caching(?) problem and I’ve no idea how to solve it.
I use bbpress on a single website in a multisite wordpress installation with the [bbp-forum-index] bbcode on a custom page as front page.
Now I realised that then I’m moving topics or deleting some of them the topic- and post-counter as the freshness column doesn’t update. There still seems to be a topic but then clicking on the forum there isn’t.
My first suspect is the cache but after smashing the F5 button and manually clearing the browser cache it’s still there. Also topics deleted a long time ago are still in the freshness column but not in the topic- and post-counter.
We’re not using any caching plugins. The only thing that comes near a caching plugin is the plugin wordfence that has a caching option, but that function is disabled. I also deactivated the plugin but nothing changed.
Now I’m quite confused. Does someone know of any problems with following plugins?
What I’ve tried:
– deactivating wordfence
– use the Twenty Fifteen theme instead of evolve (on a test page same result if I move topics between different main categories or parent forums)
What I use:
– WordPress 4.3
– bbPress 2.5.8
– evolve theme 3.4.3 with a child theme
on http://hackish.codes/hcforum/
test website: http://hackish.codes/testpage/
These plugins are active together with bbpress (on both the test website and the productive forum):
– Breadcrumb NavXT 5.2.2
– Redux Framework 3.5.7
– Wordfence Security 6.0.15
– WPML Multilingual CMS 3.2.6 (active on multisite but deactivated through the WPML intern deactivation)
– WP Statistics 9.5.3
– BuddyPress 2.3.3
– WP Hide Admin Bar 2.0
– Orbisius Child Theme Creator 1.2.8

It is a members only Forum, so I have registered a test account for you.
Username: bbpress
Password: bbpress
Thanx
I believe I found out the problem. The test user I created had valid permissions, but he never clicked on the email sent during registration. The forum works for a normal, old, email checked user.
I just tested on my test site, and I do not really see an issue with the OG tags. Maybe there is something else. You may need to try some troubleshooting.
Troubleshooting
You might want to test the importer on WAMP first to get the feel of how it works and is set up.
You should be able to style your forums before or after. You are just moving data over while importing.
thanks casiepa. i agree with you on open source, but that is a separate issue. if my comments were taken as slamming bbpress, that was not intended. i am just direct and make my comments based on the results i am getting. i do not have issue with anything else on the site and all other email notifications are working. on the other hand, it is worth noting that i believe i have isolated the problem. i will post here on the details if all tests work out correctly.
No. I just installed it and am running the latest version of wordpress. I have not used it before, but it seems rather clunky to be honest and I am no novice. This is the first site where I have required a forum, so it is not a good first impression. It has been around a long time and I am surprised it is so dodgy. The site on which I am using it is live, so I must a wait until later to try to deactivate several plugins, but I will let you know what happens after I do. I see a lot of replies on this and many plugin suggestions for something that should be very, very simple. I will wait and see.
hi friends,
Me too, breadcrumb is not showing only in forum pages.
Previously i had WordPress SEO plugin. Now disabled that too. But still i am not getting breadcrumb. No code is done. Latest bbpress has been installed as it is.
Please help
Thanks
Sorry, I forgot all about your topic. Whenever I contacted the devs awhile ago, they were very busy with other bugs, tasks, tests. It might be best to hire a developer for the import as we are being backed up with other things in the bbPress plugin. Stephen might come and reply to your posts in sometime, but maybe not soon as I explained they seem busy.
You may also need to wait it out with SMF until we get the issues with the importer resolved.
You may need to run some repair tools like Lynq did in this plugin.
Test Data for bbPress – Plugin
Running more than one repair tool can be resource intensive so be careful.

do you know that the default WordPress login page is yoursite.com/wp-login.php and the direct link to the WordPress backend (Administration area) is yoursite.com/wp-admin?
So you renamed wp-login.php to newadmin. And after you login you are redirected to the dashboard at wp-admin.
I am starting to think this is not really an issue.
I also did test the dashboard access plugin and didn’t really see an issue from it either. Maybe the redirect url you inputted in that plugin may be causing an issue?? I am not sure.
Why does the forum only show up when I update it manually via backend?
Anyone any idea what this could be?
I’ve tried different roles; Moderator + Keymaster. Still getting the same result, everything does work – beside showing it in the frontend.Tho, after updating the forum within the backend it shows up in the frontend.
Thanks.
// Create FORUM Entry object
$my_forum = array(
'post_title' => 'title',
'post_content' => 'test',
'post_status' => 'private',
'post_author' => $_POST['post_author'], //also tried admin '1',
'post_type' => 'forum',
'post_parent' => '123' // parent forum
);
// Insert the post into the database
$page_id = wp_insert_post( $my_forum );
Hi all,
Just setting up my new forum using the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress, but Im having trouble handling user registration.
Ive used the forum login widget to handle logins in my sidebar, but im not happy with registration. I created a new page called registration and added the shortcode [bbp-register]. But this is really basic and not what a am looking for at all, unless its possible to edit it somehow, something I am fairly sure cannot be done to a shortcode?
Does anyone have any suggestion as to what login and registration plugins are good to use? Or anyone know what this bbpress site uses to handle its login and registrations, that looks good handling both functions in one tidy box in a single area.
Thanks for you help in advance.
🙂
What troubleshooting did you already do? Did you already do the plugin and theme troubleshooting?
Troubleshooting
Also sometimes it may not necessarily be a caching plugin, it could also be other thing caching your site, like cloudflare, hosting server cache, something like that.
You can always test your sites theme/plugins on a test server.
Tested it out on your site and I saw the issue. I don’t really have a fix for this yet but I know another guy that had something similar and I wonder if something in your guys set-ups could be causing the issue.
I emailed you some questions to help me try to pinpoint the issue.
If I still can’t find anything, I will just collect some data and post what you two guys already did and report a bug on the bbPress trac linking to both of your guys topics.
Not sure, bbPress could always possibly need only slight changes to support it if any. You can always try it on a test server/local development area to check and make sure though.
Create new roles with custom capabilities.
Custom Capabilities
TO have individual colors for each role, there is a function that might help. I think you need to create a varialbe to pass the bbp_get_user_display_role() with the id of the user in the reply author bbp_get_reply_author_id() to get the specific user role of the reply author then pass the user role name into $classes. You might also need to use strtolower() to make the class in your code lowercase.
function my_reply_class($classes) {
$classes[] = 'test-class';
return $classes;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_class','my_reply_class' );
After all that, all you would need to do is add this CSS.
.myrole .bbp-author-role {
background-color: blue;
}
Hi, Can the latest bbPress version run on PHP7 configuration? Does bbPress support PHP7.0?
Thanks.
I have wordpress 4.1 installation,
PHP version is 5.4.30 and mysql version is 5.32.
I have downloaded latest version from wordpress.org install plugin but :
Tables are not created , only dashboard can be viewed at admin,
forums frontend works but other admin pages can’t be accessed.
I have tried with version 2.5 and this version not worked too.
How to solve this problems.
Hi,
We are using BBpress for user registration and forums we will be activating in the near future on our website. We are also using the All In One WP Security Plugin, in here is a option to rename the login page, so directly going to mysite.com/wp-admin should not work and should be mysite.com/*newadmin*
However this did not work initially, we had to log in on the /*newadmin* but still had to go to /wp-admin to gain access to the dashboard.
We disabled all other active plugins, and the problem was solved, after testing it showed that once BBpress plugin was disabled the feature worked as intended, loggin into /*newadmin* would get me instantly into the dashboard.
I’ve also requested help on their end, but since 2 plugins are involved, Do you guys have any suggestions as to what might cause this & what might solve this issue?
Any help or suggestions would be great. We just want to rename the admin part, so we are not bound to the wp-security option, just seemed easy.
Heres my initial post on wordpress.org support for all in one wp security:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/renaming-the-login-cant-enter-with-the-url?replies=4#post-7342568
We are using a fully up to date version of WP & all plugins.
I created 2 test forums, they are not private. I also selected to check (Allow guest users without accounts to create topics and replies).
I guess maybe try the conditional that is in this code. 13 is the topics forum id.
function bbp_forum_thirteens() {
$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_forum_id();
if ( $topic_id == 13 ) {
echo '<p>THIS is another test Thirteen</p>';
}
}
add_action( 'bbp_template_before_single_topic', 'bbp_forum_thirteens' );
Okay I tested it for awhile today, and I got it to work with this.
function bbp_forum_thirteen() {
$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id();
if ( $forum_id == 13 ) {
echo '<p>THIS IS FORUM Thirteen</p>';
}
}
add_action( 'bbp_template_before_single_forum', 'bbp_forum_thirteen' );
After install I created a test post and all went well until I went to view the forums.
The new post in hiding under the admin bar at the top of the screen.

All the other aspects of the plugin seem to be displaying correctly, even clicking on the floating topics brings you to the post where it is in the middle of the page like it should be,
I’m guessing a css issue,
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
