maybe a theme css issue – try changing themes as a test.
Can’t see it out of place on my test site
bbpm_notify looks like the notify plugin? strongly suspect that is the issue.
otherwise
particular browser?
tried changing themes (as a test) to see if it is theme related?
ok, so I just tried 2019 on my test site, and I get the user name on the title bar, with just bbpress as the only plugin.
// Output the topic tags
wp_tag_cloud( array(
‘smallest’ => 9,
‘largest’ => 8,
‘number’ => 8,
‘taxonomy’ => bbp_get_topic_tag_tax_id()
) );
How can I style this please
I want the smallest should have a “green” color and hottest should have “red”
Help me save a life
it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.
Plugins
If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Then come back
ps bbpress just uses WordPress login, so they are one and the same, so login for WordPress (and your membership plugin) is login for bbpress.
and for your test user, see what bbpress role has been set in dashboard>users and edit the user, should be participant
if the user isn’t logged in, then the forum won’t know who they are (or indeed the membership plugin!)
so if user is logged in, you say ‘The login on this form fails when I use my admin login.’ – can you describe what you mean, and maybe this is ‘membership’ plugin related ? as a test, deactivate the membership plugin and see if that fixes
if you want anyone to be able to post, then you need to allow anonymous posting
dashboard>settings>forums and look for anonymous, but unless you really want general public posting I’d suggest not. If you do, look also at ‘bbpress notify no spam’ as another plugin.
I can’t say why the 2nd is happening – I’d suggest you set up a test user and see if they get the same issue.
then come back
Hi guys,
I’ve just done a new WP install & also a new bbPress install. No other plugins installed.
I then added a Forum you can see on this page.
Test55
The problem I have is:
This login form seems to prevent me from adding a topic.
The login on this form fails when I use my admin login.
How can I remove the login form from appearing & allow a topic to be created?
thanks,
Riggie

new topic area
new reply area
Hello, I am creating a specialized forum combining wordpress(5.4.1), bbpress(2.6.4) and buddypress(5.2.0). The website is exptoge.com. I have already created child thyme in the wp-content/themes/mytheme folder and used functions.php and style.css to make some customization. Now I need some help to personalize the forum new topic area and new reply area.
1) New topic area, as shown in Fig 1,
(please go to here to check all the figures ).
For every new topic in this forum, I wish the following text appear in the “Topic content edit area” by default: “please clearly describe the place and time duration”. Once the user click in this area to input something, those text will disappear automatically.
The google search box seems exactly demonstrate this effect as shown in Fig.2. Source of Fig 2, captured at chrome://newtab.
2) New reply area, as show in Fig.3.
For every new topic in this forum, I wish some text (e.g. “please select or input your selection” ) appear in the “Reply content edit area” and followed by a drop down selection list (similar to Fig. 4 or Fig.1 below part) by default.
The selection list is composed of two parts. The first is designed to choose a color, red, blue or others. The second is designed to choose a shape, triangle, circle or others.
If the users choose others, a new input box will appear so that they can input their other choice. Text “please input your choice” will appear in the input box with function similar to Fig. 2 (requirements of new topic area above).
After the users make a choice or enter their choice, the choice result will exactly be the reply content. But, the above “please select or input your selection” text will be updated to be “I prefer” texts.
I am not sure whether it is possible to achieve above functions through making modifications in my themes. Anyway, thanks a lot for your time and efforts. You can log in with username “Daniel” and password as “Daniel8” to test “new topic” and “new reply ” function in this website.
untested but try
$forum = bbp_forum_id() ;
$parent = wp_get_post_parent_id($forum) ;
if (!empty($parent)) {
echo esc_html( get_the_title($parent) ) ;
}
Thank you so much for the plugin recommendation. It solved the problem (brilliant!) and then I started getting these error messages and the emails stopped sending again.
EMAIL DELIVERY ERROR: the plugin WP Mail SMTP v2.0.0 logged this error during the last time it tried to send an email:
Mailer: Default (none)
PHPMailer was able to connect to SMTP server but failed while trying to send an email.
Please review your WP Mail SMTP settings in plugin admin area. Consider running an email test after fixing it.
Also “could not instantiate mail function” message appeared in the mail logs.
Is it possible to point me in the right direction to resolve this? Many thanks.

Hi,
The Last Post time is showing over 2 weeks when it should be within the last few hours. See “Latest news and required reading” on https://forum.eclipseaudio.com
Any ideas how to fix this?
Best,

I was told that :
https%3A%2F%2Fwww.publictalksoftware.co.uk%2Fxxx%2F%3Ftopic%3Dthis-is-a-test%26paged%3D3%23post-5572
is not a very “pretty” link. I don’t rightly know. But how is this url created? Does bbPress format it like this?
I tried deactivating everything except bbpress and the links were still like that.
In short, is this by design?
Hello,
I am using BBPress with the la in conjunction with Ultimate Member (everything is latest version). Our forums are supposed be completely private for non logged in users. This works for the individual forums and topics.
Unfortunately, we discovered that if you put in “Forums” after the website URL an index of all forums with topics shows up. You are not able to access them, but it is really not good for us to have this information show up at all.
How can I prevent the Forums index from appearing by typing the URL. Can this be done? I would really be grateful for some help here. Thank you.
Dear bbPress team member,
I’ve got a question about a difference that I encounter between the replies to a topic in a “normal” forum page versus the replies to the same topic “embedded” in another page.
I’ve recreated the problem in a new website:
https://cursus.fotograferenindenatuur.nl/
WP version 5.4.1
bbPress version 2.6.4
No other plugins are activated
Theme: Twenty twenty
Username and password: on request
To reach the “normal” page: main menu > community > click “Test forum” > click “Test topic”
To reach the “embedded” topic: main menu > Page for embedded topic
When someone replies to one of the messages in this topic (except for the first one) the replies should be nested under that message. In the “normal” forum page this works fine (for a logged in user). But when I “embed” this topic in another page, all replies are posted at the bottom of the list. And they are all posted as new replies to the topic, and not as nested replies.
Do you know how I can get nested replies in the embedded topic?
Best wishes,
Toine
Hi there,
I did just set up my forum, but when I start a new Topic the counter in the Overview does not change. I did some tries with multiple test-topics and replies, but no change. Always stays at 0 :-/
Any ideas?
Thanks
Hi @canvasstudio,
my whole site crashed at some point and I started over without buddypress, as I suspected that it was this plugin that was causing the problem.
Now I have a test site and am experimenting again, as for my community buddypress would be ideal to have as well.
So yes I am interested in your solution!
Right now after installing buddypress, I dont see any activities from the private groups.
Ideally I would like that users see the activity according to their group permission.
Thanks
I think it was my fault. I thought I had created a test message but I had left the body of the topic empty and not ticked the recaptcha.
It would not jump to the error messages. It just went to top of screen. So I did not notice the post was not added.
It really should jump to the error message which I have nice and clear with a yellow border.
ok, this may or may nogt work
can you download this file
RSS Test
and then open it and paste the contents into code snippets ion the php/code section
then let me know if it does anything (at all!!)
One or two subscribers are not receiving email notifications despite having subscribed to the Forum. I’ve checked on the Forum and you can see that they have subscribed but looking at the mail logs, their email addresses aren’t on it. Has this happened to anyone else? Would be really grateful for your help. Latest WordPress & BBpress being used. Does it take some time for notifications to be sent after a member has registered? I’ve sent a test email through BB Style and they’ve received it but nothing is coming through from the Forum. Many thanks.
For me the plugin works and I am receiving notification emails, except that the text has weird elements –> \"
————
Admin has just mentioned you on their reply \"Reply To: test\":
\"@sandra
this is a tagging test\"
——————-
It would be so useful to get @mentions outside of buddypress
Hi Robin,
thanks for your reply. The problem seems to have disappeared as my testing account is now able to open new threads in the private forum (without confirmation by mod). I don’t know if I changed anything (of importance) but yeah it’s working now.
Thanks also for linking to the profile pluggin!
