Main Forum Page and short codes

    The main forum page (created during the install process using Method 1 or Method 2 shows no forum info.

    If I create a new topic (admin) and go directly there I can see the post, reply and see other forums

    I created a forum called “t-forums” and added “For Sale” and “General” under that. Everything works just great except the parent (Forums).
    Home › Forums › t-forums › For Sale

    So the parent (Forums) seems broke and doesn’t show the forum items on it’s page.

    I’ve removed the plugin and added it back with the same results.

    I also noticed this in the cookie crumb from my theme

    “You are here: Forums ∼ Forums ∼ Forums ∼ t-forums ∼ Everything”

    Sorry Robin W but it’s an intranet and can’t be accessed from outside our corporate network.

    My guess is I’m going to have to completely remove bbpress and start over. …again

    So I follow the exact steps and on the page I created with the same name as the slug I just get this
    No formatting and all on one line. “tdf” is the slug name and page name.

    Another thing…

    If I click “Edit” on that page WP dumps me into the list of Posts and not in the page editor.

    ok, you’re stating stuff that I’m finding hard to visualise/understand, and adding further info which again is not clear.

    It’s not that you are not trying to explain, it’s just that as I can’t see your site, and issues with themes, plugins, and servers can be many and varied, there’s not a quick ‘do this’ answer.

    de-installing and re-installing rarely fixes 🙂

    So as I can’t see your site to start with lets eliminate theme and plugins

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

    Come back with the results – If that finds a fault it doesn’t mean you can’t use that theme or that plugin, just that we know where the issue is.

    If that doesn’t fix try

    Dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – you don’t need to change anything – that just re-sets the links and sometimes fixes issues.

    If not then also let us know your forums slug dashboard>settings>forums and look for the forums root slug.

    Also let us know your permalink setting Dashboard>settings>permalinks
