Not entirely sure really but I have tested themes that add next and prev post nav links to bbPress on accident and it seems to work. You may need to add the php tag to the bbPress forum templates, maybe just output it in a bbpress.php file with a condtional to only show on single forums.

you can use the shortcode [bbp-topic-index] in a new page – this will show the latest 15 topics across all forums with pagination.
@strategeek
its been a while and im not 100% sure this will work (in terms of sanitation checks) but if you change
$html[] = '<select class="chzn-select" multiple="multiple" name="bbp_topic_tags[]" id="bbp_topic_tags">';
foreach($tags as $tag){
$selected = '';
if (in_array($tag->name, $selectedTagsArray)) {
$selected = 'selected="selected"';
}
$html[] = '<option '.$selected.' value="'.$tag->name.'">'.$tag->name.'</option>';
}
$html[] = '</select>';
to
foreach($tags as $tag){
$selected = '';
if (in_array($tag->name, $selectedTagsArray)) {
$selected = 'checked="selected"';
}
$html[] = '<input '.$selected.' type="checkbox" name="bbp_topic_tags" value="'.$tag->name.'">'.$tag->name;
}
i haven’t tested it but it should get you close
@rommelxcastro
This kind of looks normal since when you edit the topic all you see is the Text editor which will show the html tags.
Visual vs Text Editor
Also did you copy and paste the content of the whole topic page as an test, or was it just like that??
Are you using this plugin??

Thanks for sharing. I shall test it and give feedback soon.
Hello,
I’ve searched, really, and I didn’t find any solution before asking here.
So, first, here’s all versions used :
Wordpress : 4.2.4
BBPress : 2.5.8
Theme used : Cry Out Nirvana 1.0.6
A few other extensions are installed :
Active Directory Integration
Advanced Custom Fields
Advanced Custom Fields: Nav Menu Field
CKEditor for WordPress
Collapse-O-Matic
GD bbPress Attachments
List category posts
Members
Our Team
Post Types Order
TablePress
TablePress Extension: Row Details
Uber Login Logo
WP-Utilisateur-Avatar
I think there’s everything.
I can’t give a link to the website, at the moment it’s internal, in progress and next, it will be our new Intranet
So, here’s the issue I have.
My users make forum posts, seems to be OK.
When they try to modify a post, or if I try to modify it myself as admin, I don’t get the window to change the text but an article I made “sticky”, the article is not opened to be modified.
As an example
Link to the post : mysite.fr/index.php/foruminterneimestia/suject/test/
Button Modify : mysite.fr/index.php/foruminterneimestia/suject/test/edit/
Page I receive : mysite.fr/index.php/2015/08/10/edito/
Do you have any idea ?
Ask me any question (but the password)
Hi there, I would like to promote the forum on my home page, other than having just a call to action button to direct them to the forums page, is there a way to incorporate any element of the forums on to my home page? So like perhaps pull in the latest post created which they then can see and click through to the Forums page.
Thanks.
I noticed the problem before any replies were posted to the two threads I tested with. So I’m not sure yet if the freshness is correct for later replies. But it’s definitely off for the original post. Instead of the original freshness time being based on the time the topic is actually posted, it’s based on when the topic was saved on the back end. So it’s making new topics look older than they actually are on the public side.
If the topic has any new replies to it, the Fresness time changes when any new replies are posted. Freshness time is basically tells you the time when the Last Post was posted, not the published date.
To see the published date, go into the topic and toward the top-left of the topic by the labels Author and Posts you should see the published date.
But if the topic did have no replies, and also shows the wrong time, then I might need to report as a bug/do testing to duplicate the issue.
I am on the latest version of WordPress, but a custom theme ( developer left it half way) so I am fixing it myself.
1) The forum page shows for post the correct numbers. Example
post tite: Voices(5), Posts (6)
but inside posts it says
This topic contains 5 replies, has 5 voices
Viewing 1 post (of 1 total)
Then it shows just the main topic, not the replies to it.
This is the code for the bbpress.php template
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="page-left" class="container">
<?php
the_content();
?>
</div>
<div id="page-right">
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Seems fine to me, what do you think I missed?
Hi Robkk, thanks for the answer
Merging topics doesn’t work at allon my main forums, on any topic old or new, on any forum.
It gives me the message “There are no other topics in this forum to merge with”.
The only place that I found that works merging topics is inside group forums!
i have 2 group forums and merging topics works in both.
I haven’t test it with another theme because is a production site.
I haven’t add or replace any plugin, only updates!
Okay, then it might not be a bug in bbPress then. I do not know why I didn’t get some emails from my server, some topic notifications did go into my spam folder though, but I did not get any forum notifications. I did subscribe to a forum on this site as a fallback for testing, and I did receive the forum notifications for new topics on this site though, so it seems to work fine.
I did not try the plugin yet because I want to check things in a certain order rather than adding another new plugin to my site and another layer of complications.
The functionality of that plugin I think is going to make it into core anyway. The way that bbPress does it right now with BCC, the emails could be caught up in a spam/junk folder.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2797?cversion=0&cnum_hist=2
So my next step should be to check with Bluehost support to see why these many different notifications from bbPress, Gravity Forms and Wordfence that are being generated are not being sent to any administrator emails. I’ll get back here when I find out more.
Okay, it makes sense to possibly be a server issue since you have issues with multiple notification emails from different plugins. WHen you get sorted with your issues with the other plugins, come back to tell me how bbPress is doing.
Thanks for your time and effort in trying to help me Robkk, but I am aware of the above.
I am just making sure.
I also don’t doubt that bbPress Moderation works for most installations.
Tell me how you are set up.
Do you have anonymous posting enabled? Because after more testing Do not Moderate A topic or reply by a previously approved author does not work for anonymous posting, it still works well for registered members posting though.
I am starting to think that no alternative solutions are going to come up, which then leaves me to either try to get bbPress Moderation to work as you suggest, or write something myself.
A third option could be to wait for the maker of the bbPress Notify (No-Spam) plugin to come up with something, as his future plans with the bbPress Moderation Plugin Add-On appear to be to turn it into a successor for bbPress Moderation.
Yeah, you don’t have to use the bbPress moderation plugin. You can always fork it, or use any available alternatives, free or paid.
Hi,
I installed the latest version of bbPress on the latest version of WP.
Under Reply, I don’t have the combo box for the “Reply To” but a Text Field.
Nothing under Screen Options.
Any advice?
Thanks,
Marc
@matoca
Okay for some reason I am having trouble getting Forum notifications on my test site to any user except the blog owner like you said, I may have to report a bug or do more testing/discuss with the devs. And I might have also found another bug messing with this too.
The topic subscriptions work well though when I tested them.
Did you try some troubleshooting already to see if there could be another thing causing the issue?? I want to make sure before I report any kind of bug.
Troubleshooting
Just to make sure you are using the latest WordPress and bbPress?
Did you use the plugin mentioned above, Asychronous subscriptions, abd see if it fixed it?
Do other emails work on your site like new user registration, new comment, etc. ?
I have an email address for the website via a Bluehost mailbox and I have one email forwarder from that box to my home email client.
Is this something you did recently, or was it always set up like this for 2 years.
I want double notification for the moderators and I don’t mind getting triple notification.
This might be custom development.
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.
https://github.com/easydigitaldownloads/bbPress-Topic-Subscribers
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.

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?
