I used for bbpress wp fastest with a cheetah for a long time .. until I found out that the mobile version went into the premium segment)
Spent a week experimenting and found an even more faster solution.
1. Nginx cache – compression, reddis, headers.
2. PhastPress – enable all parameters – then disable unnecessary ones. These are pictures, scripts, queues optimizations.
3. And finally WP Super Cache – this is the cache stuff, but unlike w3 total – the cache in dynamic, which is what for the forum. Good results – Expert mode enabled.
Hope this helps you a little.
Hello
So i own a website in wordpress with latest bbpress installed but i’m having cache issues with the forum. So when browsing i get old content, always have to ctrl+shift+r.
Googling the issue i saw some topics with users but it couldnt be fixed entirely.
I have tried:
– No cache on the hosting;
– Automatic cache on hosting;
– Installed LiteSpeed Cache
Disabled Cache for logged in users
Added /topic* /forum* /forums* to be excluded
Every other setting i found online
– Installed W3 Cache (i have it currently)
Still cache issues specially editing topics (shows old content), going back on forum shows also outdated content. Same happens after editing topics
– Also tried no Cache Plugins, same results.
It has been a pain to try to deal with this and my knowledge is limited on this.
Any help?

Hello,
I set up the Forum page, the registration page and the password reset pages. It seemed to be working ok until I get to creating a new user as if I am someone new (in order to test it).
This is for a multi-vendor site, using WooCommerce and Dokan Multi-Vendor.
Please check out this page as an example and proceed as if you are a new user setting up their username.
Forum Register/Login
After you enter the username and email and then click the register button it directs to the shop page for the site. There isn’t a place in the editor that I can see that allows me to change where the register button links to. I filled out the urls correctly in the bb press login widget.

This is urgent as it is keeping my client from launching their site. Thank you for your help!
I’m migrating a forum from vbulletin to bbpress, after a lot of tests I managed to get everything working but the images of the old forum and the emoticons are transferred to the root ex: mysite.it/smile.gif
Do you know a way to set a specific folder or at least the folder where I am in vbulletin?
Thank you
the keymaster role is further down the profile – it is an additional role to the wordpress one.
If you have keymaster set for you, then it could be a theme or plugin issue

Yes, I know this sounds strange, but I have tested it.
For setting “Hold a comment in the queue if it contains 2 or more links”:
tried doing 2 hyperlinks: got moderation reply
tried doing 2 images + 1 hyperlink: got moderation reply
tried doing 1 hyperlink no problem
tried doing 1 hyperlink + 1 image: got moderation reply
tried doing 2 images got moderation reply
Set it to 0 links
no problem posting regardless of link/image.

just run it on my test site, and the counts stay as they should
I also tried with a test site that I have and if I click on “Recount the answers in each forum” the number of posts has become the same as that of the Topics …
ok, so you have users who have a wordpress role, but no bbpress role – yes?
If so, then testing for a bbpress role, or as you are suggesting a capability such as create_topic seems a sensible solution.
Hi Robin.
I specifically want to discover if the user is logged in as a user of bbpress.
This is to account for a case where I have some registered websites users who are not forum users.
For the moment I’m testing capabilities.
At the moment the only people with access to the forum are people who can create posts.
So I’m testing of the user has the capability create_topic
This might work, but feels a bit clumsy to me.
I’m wanting to create conditional logic that responds to whether a user is logged in to bbpress.
Googling helped me to find these two functions:
bb_current_user_can()
bb_is_user_logged_in()
However, when I use them, I get the error “Call to undefined function bb)…”.
This happens even when I tie my containing function to the hook ‘plugins_loaded’, which I believe fires after all activated plugins have loaded.
(I first tried to use the hook ‘wp’)
So I’m just double-checking…
Should I be able to use either of those two functions to test if a user requesting a resource is a logged-in bbpress user?

ok, so if you are a keymaster then I can only suggest
1. reset the permalinks – dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets them.
2. if that doesn’t fix, it could be a theme or plugin issue

I’ve done something, but I don’t know what? I think the slugs for the ‘forum’ page may have had a conflict (there was a warning message, but I changed the names), and I think the tabs went missing after I rebuilt the tables, but the tabs have totally disappeared now, and I don’t know how to get them back. Its a backend issue, as its not affecting the front end – you can still get to the forum page
I uninstalled and deleted/reinstalled bbpress, and it hasn’t brought the tabs back.
I’m really worried that if I delete the Buddypress plugin, I will lose my settings and customer lists of Participants. Any advice would be very much appreciated.
bbPress Version 2.6.6

ok, scheduling works fine on my test site, so not sure what to suggest next.
Hello all,
I have a question i am testing a migration from phpbb to bbpress. but now for a while i get a repeat of step 8, how long does this take? i have about 60 times step 8 now and counting.
And i do not see any users from the original forum, i still have to do the repair as mentioned above to see if that works.
suspect it might be a another plugin that is adding these (possibly one of mine, but hopefully not!)
so the standard fault finding applies

great – thanks for posting your experience. Partial forum transfers are always difficult as there is lots of meta-data like counts and latest items that need to be correct at the end
there is an action hook on the forums index so
add_action ('bbp_template_before_forums_index' , 'test_bbpress');
shoul dwork
