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
Nevermind.
Right now I am using the (bbpress) Forum Search on my Main Sidebar. I also have the bbpress shortcodes listed below. If I check this box: Forum Prefix (Prefix all forum content with the Forum Root slug (Recommended), my search works but then it disables my bbpress shortcodes. How can I make the bbpress shortcodes work with the Forum Prefix box checked?

Hi,
I am hoping that someone here will be able to help with this as it’s a rather frustrating issue and I can’t figure out why it’s happening to start with.
I have set my forum to the ‘rating level’ that will accept posts using phrases such as ‘porn’ and curse words…that being the case I was rather surprised when someone attempted to create a thread in a forum using a jokey phrase including the word porn and it wouldn’t allow the user to post. I checked the post, checked all the settings (I have no words in the blacklist – the forums are monitored almost 24/7 and we have a rather exclusive membership so I felt this was unnecessary at the present time) and there seems to be nothing amiss so the reasons for this being done are a mystery to me. I am able to add the extra words in the sentence in the CMS but this is not something I wish to have to do every time someone wants to refer to something specific like this.
Is there a reason why this would be happening?
I have recently upgraded to the latest versions of Buddypress (2.3.2.1) and BBpress (2.5.8) and also was upgraded to WordPress 4.3.
The site is set up to work with the Make template but I have tested this on the other templates and as it works when I remove a single word from the actual post I know that it HAS to be some hidden filter somewhere that I am unable to remove.
My site is found at http://www.bewitching-fiction.com
I’m wondering if it is easy enough to migrate a google group to bbpress? I’ve come across a couple of services out there that offer this service (albeit without testimonials) but was interested to know if there was a plug-in or scraper service that can do this for me. I have time to make some amendments and changes but would generally like to automate the process, including the migration of users.
Someone posted the same question on this forum four years ago and received no reply…
Hi Rob,
As I said (in an edit of my OP, which you may have missed), I have tried a number of different themes, including twenty fifteen, twenty fourteen, twenty twelve, Avada, Oceanic… they all demonstrate the same symptoms, and Avada even supports bbpress (as does, I assume, the WordPress themes). All themes are latest versions.
Is the theme you are testing Avada? There could always be a theme that could cause an issue, or even just a new theme update.
bbPress 2.5.7 and 2.5.8 do not work with latest versions of WordPress CMS and WP Client plugin.
Will work fine if WP Client plugins are deactivated but as soon as they are activated the forum breaks.
Any ideas?
