Hey Guys,

Is it possible to remove the whiteness and wordpress logo if you copy paste a product into the forum section.?

WP: 4.9.4
bbpress Version 2.5.14
Same behavior in a customized Suffusion theme and as the Twenty-twelve theme.

Fairly new bbpress user here, so be gentle.

Any topic started after a certain date is NOT showing the topic contents, only that of replies. The content is showing perfectly fine if the topic is edited from the admin side. I’ve reinstalled the plugin thinking it was something I did when trying to make the SUBSCRIBE link at the top of forums visible instead of scrunched up against the rest of the breadcrumbs as it appeared in our Suffusion theme.

New topics posted behave this way, but older topics posted prior to that date are fine. We’re in the middle of a paid workshop on this forum and about to start another. So if anyone has any idea what I’ve done and where to look to undo it, it’d be greatly appreciated!

My forum users login using the normal wordpress login. On a computer, this in in the upper left hand corner. On mobile devices, several users report that the login isn’t there. Any suggestions?

Does anyone have any suggestions for methods of notifications all users (not just admins/moderators) about activity in the forum? Are any of them mobile friendly?

It makes little sense to set nofollow links on my site from trusted members. Is there a quick functions.php fix that will remove the no follow tag on external links for accounts who have admin or editor status only?

Thank you!

Hello bbpress community,

Please help me overcome the first hurdles with bbpress.

re. user profile 404

I have followed the install guide for bbpress. Everything seems to work fine except the click on a user picture/link (other than my admin picture/link) leads to 404.

The site is live on

Leadership resources

On this topic, for example, the participant answering with a Gravatar picture cannot be accessed. (I have a plugin installed that redirects all 404 to the homepage which is what happens here.)

I would like to run the bbpress forums without BuddyPress, if possible. Is there a solution to this issue?

Re. An engaging business community giving credit to people who take the time to submit comprehensive organizational case studies

There is a community that I like particularly:
https://www.managementexchange.com/

What I like here is:
1. It’s topic based – the new does not crowd out the excellent.
2. The case studies can be ranked by likes and comments. Along with a large user image and name this gives credit to the contributors.
3. Title and tags show what it is about.
4. Clicking on the topics leads to comprehensive organization case studies.

Can I realize something similar with bbpress?

I know this example community allows for front end posting from a form that prompts to comprehensive answers, but I hope I can offer an initial community with bbpress before going for a more complex solution.

What I have not found in bbpress out of the box is likes, or a sorting of topics.

Thanks a lot for your help.

I want to change the default so that all new users are subscribed to all forums by default. I have seen some replies to this question which say it can be set on group admin pages, but I can’t see any way on the BBPress settings to create groups, and I cant find any plugins to add the functionality. What am I doing wrong?

I’m running WordPress 4.9.4 with Twenty Seventeen Child Theme, and bbPress 2.5.14

Hi,
A couple of questions related to link redirection and pagination:

1. We’ve managed to implement threaded replies with paging with the help of this tutorial:
https://wpup.co/bbpress-threaded-nested-replies-with-paging/
but we’re still having problems with the links under recent comments and freshness, which won’t forward you to the correct page but to the first page of the topic. Any help on how to fix this?

2. How can we include page numbers also on top of the topic page (currently page numbers are at the bottom of the page)? Tried to follow the suggestion at the tutorial site: “copy the code from Step 6 and paste it anywhere on top of where the the topic listing code starts” but it didn’t work.

3. How can we include navigation (page numbers) on the forum’s topic page, next to the topic names?

Our website
We’re using WP v. 4.9.4, theme Himalayas (1.1.1) and bbPress v. 2.5.14.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! 🙂

I am using divi theme, I want to remove the default sidebar in forums page, so I create a new page name “forums”, and add some module and bbpress shortcode in it, but the forums page always look the same with default.

Since I was helping a friend convert a phpbb2 board to phpbb3 I thought I’d take the time to also import the forums into bbpress (my preference).
I initially tried the import but could not get it to work and after looking on the forums saw that I was not alone.
To get the import to work I had to remap some fields in the phpbb conversion script and comment out some obsolete ones (took about 30 minutes.

If anyone needs to get your PHPBB3 users and forums converted in BBPress you can replace the phpBB.php file in wp-content\plugins\bbpress\includes\admin\converters to match the following updated code: https://gist.github.com/pixelnated/a7a9c41154cf64696ddd1c2e4f4327ed
