Sorry for the late reply, but while I was testing the notification emails today I didn’t seem to see any issues with the line breaks, they are all still there.
Maybe you have a plugin that can customize the notification messages in bbPress and the messages are bunched together because of that??
Merging topics still works for me when I tested it with the latest version of bbPress and WordPress.
If merging topics doesn’t work for a specific forum, you may need to repair your forums possibly??
Troubleshooting
You may also need to find and see if there is a plugin or theme issue too.
If merging forums does not work at all on your site try this with some troubleshooting also.
Create a hidden forum so it would only be visible to Keymasters and MOderators, then create a few topics and try merging them together.
Why don’t you update to the latest version of both plugins?? You can mirror your current site and test it on a local development area to see what happens if you update.
It is always best to upgrade to the current versions too, so that many possible bug fixes and security issues won’t break your site.

I’m just not entirely sure if it’s more time and effort to write the above than it is to manually delete spam messages
I was basically saying you do not need to manually delete every spam post, but you can bulk delete and auto delete spam posts. With Akismet installed it marks registered users posts that may be from spammers as spam, using the comment blacklist (bbPress uses this too) will put posts as pending as review. So that may help keep spam to a minimum.
I tested bbPress moderation, and it seems to work fine when I tested it.
I tried guest posting, registred member posting, and it seems to put the posts into moderation as pending.
You set up bbPress moderation in settings > bbPress moderation in the WordPress backend. I had everything enabled just so I can test anonymous posting too.
I received emails immediately for any posts pending moderation. I had checked that the respective posts were shown in the WordPress backend in the posts section (Either Topics or Replies in All Topics or All Replies), and when you see the pending action link all the posts in moderation should be there. To approve a reply the plugin author lists it here https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpressmoderation/faq/.
If you are 100% percent sure that it does not work, try some troubleshooting to find any possible plugin conflicts. I had a simple test site with bbPress and bbPress moderation only, and it worked fine.
Troubleshooting
Also know that some of the bbPress moderation functionality is set for core, and might be in the plugin next big release, but like I said before the plugin works fine for now, but there could be a possible plugin conflict with another plugin.
Yes, I have exactly the behavior I want (almost) but the result is conclusive for me.
Much research, testing to get lost between what I disable, enable, modify the original files, etc.
This is the plugin I meant before. In the other topic I didn’t make it work for Forums, but it seems to work fine when I edit the plugin myself and allow it to show forums instead.
here is a plugin I tested and works for displaying users subscribed to topics in a widget. I just changed anything saying topic to forum and it shows a list of subscribers of a forum. Hopefully that would help you for what you want.

If you are working on something, I would like to see the end result. Users have been asking for something to better manage user subscriptions, the best I could find is that widget. I would like to see what you can create.

It may not work for BuddyPress group forums though.
How to unsubscribe banned users to forums and new topics
Hello
I’m using latest version of WP and BBPress.
I’m looking for a away to change my role titles in BBPress but can’t find anything.
I’ve looked here and google’d but all end to plugins thats not available anymore or edit code but those lines don’t seem to exsist in present version (unless i missed something).
@donchulio Thanks, strange the collation isn’t there, but anyway, I’ll create an SMF test site using latin1 and see what results I get 🙂
View of the forum is not normal.
Blue bubbles are li of ul in my theme. But why they fly so strange in different positions?
And table of forum is not normal…
How can I fix this? How I can switch off withdrawal css of my theme?
WP 4.1.1
bbPress 2.5.6
site http://kurpyakov.ru/forum/
test
_G7ZwvYV
Which one is latin1? Having both these values would be helpful so I can test it please 🙂
We need a plugin that automatically creates a gallery of newest images from users media image. Ideally it would include, “Most viewed” “Latest” ect as a way to sort the images. Is there anything like this at all that would work with BuddyPress BBpress???
Thanks so much in advance!
ok, I am having this problem, too. I don’t see an actual solution in this thread. (Was the site theme the problem?)
My testsite is here: ttp://www.maaspublications.net/testsite/client/groups/webinar-participants/forum/topic/i-have-questions-lots-lots-of-questions/
This is making my clients BONKERS and I may have to find another forum solution if I can’t get this to work. 🙁 Thanks for your help.
Hi,
I am trying to use the forum with the WPLMS theme, and installed it with no issues. Setting it up and testing as an admin worked like a charm. But when I try to access the forum as a test user with a subscriber role, I keep getting the ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS loop. I changed the permalinks structure, all the forums are set to public, tried other themes, cleared the cache- still no luck. Checked 5 different browsers – the same issue – admin can view and access every forum, subscribers get the too many redirects error. Any idea what may be causing this error or how could I fix it? Thanks in advance!
The “Back to Discussions” link in my forum take me back to my site’s homepage, instead of the listing of forum discussions. Do I have something set wrong? I can’t find anywhere to fix this.
PLEASE SEE http://www.maaspublications.net/testsite/client/groups/webinar-participants/forum/topic/i-have-questions-lots-lots-of-questions/
All of what is listed is here, only the German language you are using is the 100% finished translation.
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress/stable
Shouldn’t it be Dein Profil for a straight translation of Your Profile which is what bbPress has for profiles??
For custom plugin translations I have to look into it, there use to be a way to have custom plugin translations.
This old code is what I think you could use and test. Edit the existing German language files with something like Poedit. Save them. And Place them in a child theme for example, and put the url in the code below.
function load_bbpress_tr_mofile( $mofile, $domain )
{
if ( 'bbpress' == $domain )
{
// replace this. :)
return 'FULL_PATH_TO_YOUR_FILE';
}
return $mofile;
}
add_filter( 'load_textdomain_mofile', 'load_bbpress_tr_mofile', 10, 2 );
Okay well there might be a way to bulk create bbPress posts, there are already a bunch of WordPress plugins that do this for blog posts. I will test to see if I can find one that works with custom taxonomies and custom post types.
I don’t think you have to go through that trouble, it would be way easier if bbPress has its own tables but it doesn’t, the posts are in wp_posts and post meta in wp_postmeta.
Stored Database Data
I need to add a button to bbPress instance of the teeny MCE.
I’ve used the following code to test how my mce plugin work:
// add new buttons
add_filter('mce_buttons', 'myplugin_register_buttons');
function myplugin_register_buttons($buttons) {
array_push($buttons, 'separator', 'myplugin');
return $buttons;
}
// Load the TinyMCE plugin : editor_plugin.js (wp2.5)
add_filter('mce_external_plugins', 'myplugin_register_tinymce_javascript');
function myplugin_register_tinymce_javascript($plugin_array) {
$plugin_array['myplugin'] = plugins_url('/js/tinymce-plugin.js',__FILE__);
return $plugin_array;
}
This works like it should on the admin side.
I can’t wrap my head around how to get the same principle to work for bbPress instance of teeny mce. Which filter/action do I need to use and where? I’ve tried using the teeny_mce_buttons filter without any luck.
WP 4.2.4, bbPress 2.5.8
This works when I tested it.
<?php if ( $forum->post_content=="" ) { echo "yes";};?>
Plugin you have shared does not even works for topics. I can unsubscribe only myself with it.
I am using latest bbpress Version 2.5.8
Not sure about forum subscriptions or if this would work with group forums, but it might be worth a try.
Install this plugin, put the widget into your sidebar, and go to each topic and remove the users subscriptions manually.
https://github.com/easydigitaldownloads/bbPress-Topic-Subscribers
Other than this plugin for topic subscritptions, I do not know what else to recommend right now.
If group admin ban a user, Ideally banned user should be automatically unsubscribed to group forum. But according to my tests new notifications are still sent by bbpress plugin to banned or removed users.
Will keep a note of this, because this is expected if you ban a user. Maybe bbPress or BuddyPress could add this in the future.
I am talking about only hidden or private buddypress groups.
Admin can ban or remove users from groups in buddypress. I have tested that new topic notifications with message are sent to banned users that i don’t want, if they are subscribed to group forum.
If group admin ban a user, Ideally banned user should be automatically unsubscribed to group forum. But according to my tests new notifications are still sent by bbpress plugin to banned or removed users.
How can i myself unsubscribe a user to a forum or topic?
I think you can use emoji in the latest version of WordPress.

I am using bbpress with buddypress and i have enabled group forums.
I have tested forum and new topic subscription settings for private and hidden groups. I have found new topic or reply notifications are also sent to even banned users as well as removed users, if they are subscribed to the topics or forums.
I want new reply are topic notifications are not sent to banned and those users that are removed from group. How and where can i change these setting?
Just made a new updated installation of bbpress, just in case..with latest german language file.
now the prefix is “I” in German on all profile pages. Should be:
My (singular, German: “Mein”) Profile
My (plural, German: “Meine”) posts, replies, subscriptions, favorites,..
