WordPress 3.9
bbPress 2.5.3

On website, links to topics work – eg:
http://domain/forums/topic/topic_name

The forums link produces a list of forums – eg:
http://domain/forums

However, the links to forums do not work – eg:
http://domain/forums/forum/forum_name
I get page not found

In addition, the dashboard menu for ‘Forums’ only has the ‘Attachments’ link. ‘All Forums’ and ‘New Forum’ have vanished.

I have tried:

* repairing forums
* re-saving settings
* resaving existing permalinks
* running debug mode (no errors)

The updates were from:
WP: 3.2.1 to 3.9
bbPress: 2.0 to 2.5.3

Any ideas what to look for?

Thanks

May well be a plugin or theme issue

Plugins

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, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Thanks. I will try that, but I think it’s possibly not that. I have a copy of the site running the same plugins but with WP3.8.2 and it’s OK.

Do you know if bbPress has a problem with database prefixes such as:

wp_new_

” I have a copy of the site running the same plugins but with WP3.8.2 and it’s OK.”

Exactly it may be another plugin that’s having a problem with 3.9 – it may not, but you need to eliminate

bbpress should have no problems with any database prefix that wordpress accepts, it just rides on this
