If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
I don’t want to add anymore programs to this computer
@atfpodcast maybe there is some setting that you accidently checked that might have caused the issue.
i just tested off of localhost and just using default settings in everything.
try testing on a local development area and see if it works
I have the same settings on another site and its working. same plugins etc…
I have installed bbPress fine and have setup a forum without any issues. However when I create a new topic within the forum the initial topic text I entered does not show. I have also noticed that all of my forum topics are displayed as blog posts and replies are posted as topics rather than replies. I have tried re-installing bbPress and the same problem exists.
Here is a link to the forum I have created.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I’m using WP 4.0 and bbPress 2.5.4-5380. I just downloaded the latest Brazilian Portuguese translation files (.po and .mo). I renamed them as the way they should be (bbpress-pt_BR.po and bbpress-pt_BR.mo), and uploaded them to wp-content/languages/bbpress but these words: “Activity”, “Notifications”, “Profile”, “Mentions”, “Personal”, “Favorites”, “Friends”, “Groups” are still in English.
I tried to edit the .po file, it’s 99% translated and there are not these words to translate (I didn’t find them).
I’ve already google this problem, and nothing worked for me.
Why should I do?
I am having problems working thru this upgrade process. I just successfully upgraded all users, posts and forums from bbPress version 0.9.0.7 to version 1.2. Conversion worked great.
Now I am working on upgrading from bbPress version 1.2 to the latest. I installed WordPress version 2.5.4-5380. Then installed the bbPress plugin version 2.54.
In Tools, Forums, Import forums, the correct information is entered. I also put a check mark in the box “Convert users (Attempt to import user accounts from previous forums)”. However, after clicking “Start” it trundles along and says “no users to convert”, “no passwords to clear”, “no forums to convert”, etc . . .
Checking in Forums and Users, I do not see any of the previous users and forums added. I wonder if we need to add table prefix info (i.e. “bb_”) into the importer settings?
And how do I remove Topic:
I’ve not tested but believe this will do it
function my_generate_titles( $new_title ){
// reset the format to title only
$new_title['format'] = '%s';
return $new_title;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_before_title_parse_args', 'my_generate_titles' );
come back and let us know if it does or doesn’t
you can just show the latest topics as a list by using
http://www.mysite.com/topics
say as a menu item or make this your home page.
alternately you can post the latest xx topics using
bbp additional shortcodes
Hi, ive had problems from my users that avatars are not showing in the forums. I checked it out & it seems theres a backslash being removed from the URL to the image. I had to remove:
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_topic_author_link’, ‘stripslashes’ ); from the filters.php and it now all works fine. Problem is my theme is in source control and surely editing core files cannot be correct, right?
This is in my loop-single-topic.php file and this is what displays the name and avatar:
<span class=”bbp-topic-started-by”><?php printf( __( ‘Started by: %1$s’), “”.bbp_get_topic_author_link( array( ‘size’ => ’90’))); ?></span>
Is this a known bug and is there a better way to fix this? I am using the latest BBpress and WordPress 4.0. Avatar plugin is WP User Avatar
Thanks
Cheers
I have just taken over on a website where the BBPress plugin was de-activated but I guess while it was up the forums were never monitored and there are 130,000 replies that are all spam. I don’t want to delete 100 at a time!!! What is the fastest or best way to delete the forums, topics and replies to start over???
@mnhfile well i dont know why you have it only showing when the parent theme is activated , its suppose to work too when you just put the file in a bbpress folder in your child theme.
maybe you put the file in your parent theme too, or edited the bbpress templates in the plugin folder which you should not do , since when either of these things update , you will lose all your modifications.
i did look at your website , it is coming together kind of nicely
the weird layout that makes it look like any additional categories below the first category look like subcategories with the space to the left and everything, this might be a little design issue, it kind of did this when i was testing the file earlier.
if you want switch out robins file with this one, just copy and paste right over it using a text-editor like notepad++ test it out and see how it does on your site.
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robkk/better-bbpress-responsive-theme/master/bbpress/loop-forums.php
And can I do some modification in each tab like hiding or disclosing tab contents(forums)
please explain a little bit more on what you are talking about, i have an idea and assume it might be some custom development work , but explain a little bit more just to make sure.
Hi there,
I’ve been successfully clinging on to bbPress 1.2 (last standalone) with my forum, so far without any problems.
Sadly that changed about a month ago when the forum suddenly started fetching “wrong” time stamps for user posts.
Now when I say wrong time stamps, what I really mean is differing time stamps, from what I could observe of about one hour.
Lets say I post something at 2pm, then one of my users comes on and he posts a reply shortly after. Now that reply doesn’t get a time stamp of, say, 2pm1min, but instead 3pm1min. The forum will now treat this post as if it were posted in the future, resulting in the output “posted -1 year ago” until forum time is past 3pm1min.
The second and more urgent consequence is that if I or anybody else with the “right” time stamp assigned to them will post another comment within that hour, that reply will be added in the wrong order prior to the first reply.
As for solving this issue, I have tried to figure it out in the code (to no avail) and even did a rollback of the forum and database to March 2014 for test purposes, yet the issue persists.
This leads me to believe that it cannot be related to any bad code (especially since the software and Plugins haven’t been touched in months), but rather that there may have been a fundamental change in the way the date function in post.php works. I can’t even seem to figure out where bbPress would fetch it’s time data from.
Banging my head against the wall at the moment, any help would be hugely appreciated.
Cheers
Lars

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
@mnhfile
also try to test out on a local development area like WAMP or MAMP
install divi , bbpress, and then add the file to your bbpress folder in your divi child theme.

PC

if you cant even get it on localhost , contact elegant themes support they also run bbpress on there support forums maybe they can help too.
@atfpodcast maybe there is some setting that you accidently checked that might have caused the issue.

The bbPress project along with BuddyPress and WordPress is testing out Slack as our main real-time communication platform, replacing IRC chats for developer related discussions.
If you are a current contributor to bbPress or would like to start contributing and help with the development of bbPress then this is the place to come and have a chat.
A brief summary is here: https://codex.bbpress.org/participate-and-contribute/
Full setup details and how to request an invite to link your WordPress.org account with a Slack.com account are here:
https://chat.wordpress.org/ https://wordpress.slack.com/apps
Note: This is a not a new support channel or forum for bbPress support.
you could start by giving us a fuller problem definition
They post a topic and YOU get a warning – when, what exactly does it say, where does it come up and when??

@atfpodcast
i already tested it out (on firefox) , and it did work the link moved at first but the second time it did work.
contact your theme author and also gd bbpress tools support and see if they can help on that link moving on the first time thing.
if you feel like gd bbpress tools quote just doesnt work because of your theme , change to a default theme like twenty fourteen then tell me the results.
there might also be other plugins conflicting with it.
so just leave bbpress and gd bbpress tools and see if it works from there.
then reactivate any additional plugins one at a time to find the problem.
the forum’s slug is test
and i want to know the topics in this forum or not ,
so i use bbp_is_forum('test') is not work , how can i check this topics in this forum or not ?!

I was doing some testing on forums with test posts. After I deleted them all from the admin panel and used the repair tool within WordPress it shows that there are “No Topics” in all the forums but the old forum topic/posts counts are still there. I tried clearing cache everywhere including browsers but the Topics/Post counts in the columns still exist even though there’s nothing inside the forum.
Sorry for making three topics on same issue because I understand it differently.
I have latest wordpress version 4 and I am using divi theme with drag and drop page builder.
When I say tabs it means “subforums” and “irrational legacy games”.
Are you talking about robin’s forum-loop.php file if then I don’t know how to use it…
Can you tell me how to make headings/tabs like “subforums” and “irrational legacy games”
ok i will now test out your theme,
im going to have bbpress, gd bbpress tools , and thats it
first im going to test if i can design the forum like normal
then im going to try to see if gd bbpress tools works.
im come back to you in a minute.
bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

try
function bbp_single_replies_show($args) {
$args['posts_per_page'] = 3 ;
$args['max_num_pages'] = 1;
return $args;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_has_replies_parse_args','bbp_single_replies_show');
I have not tested – I am quite busy at the moment – but keep trying !
