If it works for others i must be making some mistake. Tried with default theme same problem. It is some test development with many, many WP and Bbpress plugins. Could be that some of them is blocking.
I’m setting up/testing bbPress on this URL:
http://www.contentsmartslab.com/membersite/forums/forum/content-smarts/
I can’t seem to check the box that says “notify me of follow-up replies via email.” I have the subscribe option properly setup on the back-end. I’m wondering if I messed up the input CSS somewhere here, or something else. Any thoughts?
@stagger-lee I just tested the code from https://codex.bbpress.org/enable-visual-editor/ and it worked fine.
You could also try the following as a plugin, it has options to enable the full editor, though it sounds like you don’t want this so don’t enable it.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/
I am using WAMP to make a test bed for my site and I am trying to install bbPress on my locally hosted site.
However, when I install the plugin, it installs fine, but the forum pages give a 404…
How do I go about doing this?
ok, so if you’re not miles down the redesign, I’d copy across your current site and then mod from there
see
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
for a lot of detail on this.
Sorry for my late reply.
@robin-w
I have read the site you gave me but I can’t find a solution for my problem.
@lynqoid
I have deleted every JavaScript and tested it. Nothing!
I deleted the code of the function.php. Nothing!
I deactivated every plug-in. Nothing!
…and the CSS can’t be the fault because the toolbar is not disabled. It’s not there.
I don’t know what the problem could be. I hope someone can help me.
I don’t get to a forum on any of those links, presume you are still testing, so can’t answer the 401 message.
: http://propertycrowdz.com/forums/forum/rentals/ is the way bbPress shows the url.
There is some logic behind it, but it does annoy some people
The general index comes up as mysite.com/forums
but an individual forum is a forum called rentals hence forum/rentals that belongs to the forums index, hence forums/forum/rentals.
You can turn this off – Dashboard>settings>forums go to forum root slug and uncheck the forum prefix.
Below that you can change the names, so for instance you can have “support” instead of forums if you want.
Come back if you still got a 401 error, and I’ll take a look.
Check other plugins
Check that no other plugins are affecting this.
Turn off all other plugins, and see if that fixes the problem. If the problem is resolved, add back one at a time to see which is causing the conflict.
Check themes
If plugins are not the cause, the it may be a theme issue. Switch to a default theme, such as twentytwelve, and test.
Once you have done this, come back if its still a problem.

Now it is the same with SMF converter. I know it is not something for this topic, but do i have so bad luck. I have feelings that those converter scripts are not tested at all.

About a month ago I updated to 2.5.3 and at the same time I updated another plugin that integrates with bbPress. A few weeks later I’m having some issues with the other plugin and I’m trying to nail down which plugin is causing the problem but I can’t find where to download older version of bbPress so I can roll back and see if the problem is still there. Any idea where I can download previous release versions? The download page only has the latest and some pre 2.x versions.
Nice test there! You’re right – on Twenty Fourteen, it works as expected! Must be something in my theme! Thanks for this! Should have done this before i posted!
aah. forget the title “support”. this is the main title. you will find it everywhere! even on forum homepage:
http://www.dashcamtest.de/support/
the topic title is missing!
to show you the difference: i am talkin about single replies NOT topics. it is the same with your reply as single page:
Reply To: no title in content-single-reply.php
as you can see there is a nice title with prefix “Reply to:…”
and THIS is what i miss in my page. do you understand now? 🙂
the url is fine. it shows just the id of the reply. no problem with that. but i was just wonding why there isn’t a topic title on this page. just found the reply urls by visiting the sitemap.xml: http://www.dashcamtest.de/reply-sitemap.xml
ok, but replies don’t have a title in their own right, so the long version of the url which a user would get if they clicked on the reply is
http://www.dashcamtest.de/support/thema/im-test-a-rival-carcam-guenstige-mini-dashcam-mit-akku/#post-911
Sorry if I am being stupid, but you would only get to your link if you have dashboard access.
In either event, what would you wish the url to look like?
is it possible that you are assuming the link in my first post shows a thread? that isnt the case! it is a link to a single reply!!! the full thread / post is here: http://www.dashcamtest.de/support/thema/im-test-a-rival-carcam-guenstige-mini-dashcam-mit-akku/ and the link above shows ONE reply out of it.
mhh. as i already said i still talking about <title>! the one in the browser bar 😀
current sourcecode is: <title>| dashcamtest.de</title>
as you can see the topic title is missing!
I am building an extension plugin for MailPoet to allow users to subscribe to a newsletter when they register on the forum.
I have my admin settings field shown in bbPress but I when it comes to saving the options I do not get the value I either entered or selected. All values save with a zero.
This is the admin settings: https://github.com/seb86/MailPoet-bbPress-Add-on/blob/dev/includes/admin/mailpoet-bbpress-addon-admin-functions.php
Can I have some assistants to get my custom settings fully operational.
I have my plugin available on GitHub as it is right now to show what I have done and for you to download and test your self.
I hope someone can help me correct this please.
Any help is most appreciated.
Thank you.

Just to add to this thread as I’ve been experiencing the same sort of issues with edited replies appearing at the bottom of the thread and some other anomalies regarding posts being given strange “Reply to” post numbers (too inconsistent to reproduce).
All resolved for me by turning off the “Reply Threading” setting in Forums Settings. This also reactivated the paginating which hadn’t been working with this setting active.
Not running anything unusual although someone mentioned php version which I know not to be the latest on our server. Details below:
PHP Version: 5.2.5
Wordpress Version: 3.8.1
Active Theme: Twenty Fourteen 1.0
bbPress 2.5.3 (active)
BuddyPress 1.9.2 (active)
Disqus Comment System 2.74 (active)
Fourteen Colors 1.0.1 (active)
Jetpack by WordPress.com 2.8 (active)
Unconfirmed 1.2.3 (active)
WP Approve User 2.3 (active)
I too am trying to import an existing bbPress into another WordPress site, and as a note I must say that the reason I have to do this is because the bbPress importer does not play well with my server (or I SHOULD say my server does not play well!) and I get a similar result you speak of, @specialtactic, where the majority of the posts are attributed to the admin. This has been verified as not being a bbPress importer issue, but a server issue, as I was able to use the importer successfully on my local test server.
Now that I know I can import onto my local, I need to be able to import that local bbPress (converted from the phpBB3) into my live WordPress site, but alas I haven’t had the time to try and wrap my brain around how to accomplish it and so have been waiting for an importer to be written.
Just wanted to clarify for you that it’s possible that the PippinsPlugins is not at fault, if you were attempting to use it in similar circumstances to my own.
Hi RavanH
Have you had any conclusion to this issue?
Not sure there is much testing on multisite installations 😉 Keep coming back to see if bbPress is really suited to Multisite and each time there appears to be lack of clarity.
As I understand it:
1) Super admin can install bbPress plugin
2) Sub site admin should now be able to activate (or at least SuperAdmin on subsite level)
3) Sub site admin should be able to see managing Forums admin options on wp panel, not just Settings-Forum options (eg repair/reset)
However, neither Super Admin nor Site Admin can see the Forum management options. Even if they are both showing as Keymaster for the subsite.
Mad to network activate the plugin, but then you do see the management admin options as Site and Super admin.
So all you can do to use the plugin is Network activate and as far as I can see that is not the intended behaviour.
Should this be reported as a bug?
Hi. I can’t find an answer on this after searching the forum. Using WP 3.8.1. I am doing some testing, creating several Forums. I’d like each forum to have a different admin email that notifies when a topic has been added to the forum, and when a topic has been edited on the forum. This way I can have several groups owning their own forum for purposes of notification and responding. The main admin login to WP can of course go into the posts and do anything, but I need groups to be aware of when their forum is being accessed. This is different to subscribing by a user on a topic after it is created. Thanks for any help on this. Laurie
couldn’t where ‘dashcamtest.de’ was in your example.
The code is in loop-single-reply, which should show the title using line 22
This is what you will need to use to actually add a class to the body class. You could look at getting the post by the get_queried_object(); function in WordPress and then getting the title of that object. After that you could then use the sanitize_title_with_dashes($forum_title); to get a safe class name.
Please note I haven’t fully tested the code below and i’m not sure the $forum_object->post_title; will work but it get’s you moving in the right direction 🙂
<?php
$forum_object = get_queried_object();
$forum_title = $forum_object->post_title;
$forum_class = sanitize_title_with_dashes($forum_title);
?>
<body <?php body_class($forum_class); ?>>
Good luck!
