Hello.
I’m using Background Manager plugin for showing a background picture on my website. The plugin is up to date & working fine for all pages, less for user section of my bbpress.
For all the forum (http://www.styles.ro/forums/) background works, but when i enter user profile (http://www.styles.ro/forums/users/test/) the background picture disappear & showing a simple bg color with hex #111111
Any ideas? Thank you.
This sounds encouraging. I am running a standalone bbpress forum v1.02, so does it mean that it can simply install WordPress, then install this latest version of bbpress and I can import from there all my existing forums, user datas and threads? Would all the urls correspond with the old ones?
Have you tried switching to a default theme to see if the theme is causing this issue? It looks it is going to be a plugin or theme issue.
When I have any issues I try and replicate my forum on a local test, then I disable plugins one by one to see if that fixes it, then I try switching to a default theme. Usually that gets me a lot closer to finding out what is causing the issue.
Good luck!
tanx so much…yea, so rite “the theme is doing bad things to the WordPress queries (to pull in the topics / replies) ” ..my theme is made v1.3 …but it most have been corrected in the latest version. however is there a way for me to probably correct this by editing some of “made” page code and hw can i correctly troubleshoot this problem…
Hi everyone, I need a little help.
I’m not a developer and I just would like to know where to insert the code posted by Josh. (which file and where inside the file).
Thanks a lot.
Hi everyone.
I’m a bit new at this, could anyone can recommend any good appointments plugin for wordpress? I need it for my Hair salon to get my bookings taken online. I saw one that is called wp-obs (I think), looks pretty advanced. Did anyone have any experience with it? Or tested it? Any feedback will be appreciated.

For some reason my language file isn’t taking…
I’ve used poedit to edit bbpress.pot and have created bbpress.po and bbpress.mo files which I have moved here:
/public_html/testingbaret/wp-content/languages/bbpress/bbpress.po
But the changes aren’t showing. Any ideas?
Here is the forum… http://www.testingbaret.com/questions/ask-your-questions/
Thanks!
I can’t really tell when this happend, if it was due to one of the latest bbPress updates. But it should have been 2-3 weeks ago. Here’s the forum.
As a logged-in member the bbPress forum threads shows up as regular blog posts, making the forum unusable. This doesn’t affect administrators (WP admin) or non-logged in visitors.
I’ve tried using the tools to rewrite the privileges but nothing has worked so far. I’ve also tried changing the roles, both the WP and Forum privileges. But it’s only when I change the user to Administrator (aka Keymaster) that the forum renders properly.
Any help would be very much appreciated! 🙂
I have updated the codex docs for bbPress User Roles and Capabilities introduced with 2.2.
@MarjoriesDaughter I would suggest you update bbPress to the latest 2.2.3 version rather than use an old version, with that then both your conditions above will be met.
Hi, I have this small little issue regarding the e-mail address’s whenever someone receives and e-mail from my BBpress forum, or even when I receive an e-mail from my site regarding BBpress. Whenever someone signs up as a user on my forum, they get an email from username@box551.bluehost.com with their username and password. I have no idea why it’s from username@box551.bluehost.com, because my admin settings are set up for a different gmail account. I was on the phone with bluehost (my web hosting company) for a good hour and they tried everything they could and finally suggested that it was on BBPress’s end, and not theirs. So how would I change the default e-mail address to username@gmail.com and not username@box551.bluehost.com when ever myself or a registered user to my BBpress forum receives an e-mail?
I’m running the latest version of WordPress with BBpress 2.2.2.
Any help would greatly be appreciated! 🙂
Hi guys,
I had similar issue as well at some point.
Has anyone try it on a Linux server as see if it makes any difference?
Otherwise, I would be a good lead to find the php file for the comment post and made slight modification or see what influence the redirection.
What I will do is to make quick test and see and keep you updated. If you found anything, kindly share. Cheers guys!

Tapatalk for bbPress Plugin – Release Announcement and Changelog
They have a dedicated bbPress Forum here
@yellowwinter bbPress 2, aka the “bbPress Plugin” is the future of bbPress, and I’d wager it’s quickly becoming more prevalent than bbPress 1.1 and older. Any plans on that end?
I ran into the same issue w/ bbPress 2.2.3. Just the content is cleared out when a new topic has validation errors; the tags and topic type fields are preserved. I directly modified bbPress 2.2.3 in order to resolve this issue on my installation:
- Navigated to bbpress/includes/common/template-tags.php line 1605
- Removed the “if” statement so that the $post_content gets set by calling ‘bbp_get_form_topic_content’
//if ( bbp_is_edit() ){
$post_content = call_user_func( 'bbp_get_form_' . $context . '_content' );
// }
I did some minimal testing and the behavior of other topic editing seems to be unaffected by this change, and the change makes the content persist on New Topic Validation Error responses
Thanks for all the info, Stephen. Deleting and replacing the plugin did the trick. We’re not sure why the forum stopped showing posts dated after December 16, but at least it seems to be up and going again.
Hello Stephen,
Thanks for the update.
I’m working on completing the translation. I asked Yousef to send me the translation in order to test it. Usually I make sure that the translation is very accurate so I do not want to rely on translations that I haven’t checked it.
bbPress 2.2.3 was released 11 December 2012
S2Member developer @WebSharks posted details of S2Member fixes in the following thread ~22 December 2012 https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/fix-for-users-of-s2member-and-bbpress-2-2/
I am ‘presuming’ S2Member/@WebSharks was testing against bbPress 2.2.3
This is the first time I have seen anyone mention the error you detail above.
Have you any other plugins recently updated that maybe the cause of this?
Have you tried any extra combinations of the plugins eg. bbPress 2.2.2 & S2Member v121213 to see if it is an S2Member issue rather than bbPress?
ps. I also see your thread on S2Members forum with no answers at the time I wrote this http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/bbpress-2-2-3-fatal-error-on-users-page/
From that error it appears and is actually the case that not all of the files for bbPress were updated on your web host when you updated bbPress.
– Make a backup of your site and database
– Open your WordPress Admin Dashboard and go to Plugins
– Deactivate the bbPress plugin (It should already be deactivated)
– Delete the bbPress plugin and accept the confirmation that it will delete those files
– Download the bbPress plugin again from the ‘Add New’ plugins section
– Activate the bbPress plugin
You should be all good to go now presuming this time your web host has downloaded and extracted all the files correctly to your site.
ps. If you ever do need to download a current or previous version you can download them in .zip form to manually extract and upload via FTP to your web host via https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/developers/
(The current version of bbPress at the time of writing is bbPress 2.2.3)
You can test feeds with the W3C Feed Validator http://validator.w3.org/feed/
As to why your feed is failing I think is probably an issue with your web host as when I check your feed the results are “Server returned HTTP Error 404: Not Found” and I would expect IFTTT would also have problems parsing the feed.

When I updated to the latest plugin version today it triggered a fatal error. We were updating because the forums had stopped showing any new posts since Dec. 16 and thought maybe an updated plugin might help. We are still using WordPress version 3.4.2 due to being in the middle of changing servers. My friend has requested that we go back to the previous plugin since at least the forums were showing up, albeit frozen, while she finds a bbPress expert. Problem is, I never had a copy of the bbPress plugin—I downloaded it from the WordPress Plugin site, which now shows only the most recent version. Can anyone tell me where I could find an earlier version of the plugin to download? Also, any thoughts where we can find someone to help us with our ongoing bbPress issues? Thanks very much.

Here is the error, which unfortunately is gibberish to me:
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Warning: require(/home/friendbl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/functions.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in/home/friendbl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbpress.php on line 303
I also had this problem on the old bbpress 1 (stand alone). I thought it was because it wasn’t the latest version. After 40-some large posts, it hangs up and won’t allow me to post anymore.
But last night I set up the lastest with my current forum. I’ve tried two different browsers at two different locations/IP addresses and computers. I get the same thing.
Quick update – (this might help other users) As part of the troubleshooting I removed all bbpress plugins and supporting plugins from Suffusion and reinstalled and now the tinymce are present. Not sure what changes it made, but it appears to be working now.
Have discovered that this is a conflict with the theme (Suffusion) that I am using. Any advice on how to get the tinymce to show up again would be great, since I really like this theme and do not want to switch.
Likely unknown issues surfacing, or bbPress becoming more complex over time and W3TC interoperability not being specifically tested.
Just a follow up.
Here is a different plug in that does a reasonable job:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-post-topics/
After installing it, go to discussion settings and then set it to create a forum topic for each post, copy tags, etc. Then you have an option to apply settings to all existing posts.
I tried this on a test site and it worked pretty well. It did not do all the bookkeeping of reply counts correctly, but it did create appropriate topics for each post and import the comments and replies to them.
It is also reversible as it does not delete either the posts or comments — if you deactivate the plug in your posts (which were unchanged anyway) and their comments are intact. You do still have a bunch of new topics in your target forum.
