Hello,
I just installed BBPress. I created a forum, and there’s a topic in the forum, but when I go to the forum, it says:
This forum is empty.
And it doesn’t show within the theme, so I’m assuming there is some sort of error.
Here’s the page:
http://cocreationcoaching.org/forums/forum/spiritual-coach-training-level-i/
The topic display works, and the forum index, but not when I try to view a forum. Any idea why this might be happening?

Hello,
Is there any way to have private messaging in bbPress?
This is very much needed.
Hope you can help.

Not sure if this is the right place.
On my normal pages in wordpress I have the option of using full width or having a sidebar.
Is there this option on bbpress or do you need to create a page, then post shortcode then modify that page to full width?

I’ve taken a look at activity streams, forums, and groups from various sources and am not sure which I would need to build a website specific for my needs. All of them have certain things that seem related to what I would like to accomplish, but I’m not sure they will finish the job. So before I start on this project, I’d like to get some advice as to how I might go about this.
I’m wanting to create a website that has a Home page that all unregistered people will see right off the bat. If a user is logged in, I would like them to see a page similar to a blog. It would basically be their own blog page. Ideally, this page would be created upon their confirmed registration. It seemed like activity stream was a personalized page created upon confirmed registration, so that may be what I’m looking for, but I’m not quite sure if it will be right for handling the other things I need.
So, on this personalized blog page, a user would have a link to create a new topic which would allow them to enter in several fields of info (i.e. Topic Name, Content, Location). Then when they post that topic, it will appear on their own personalized blog page. I want other users to be able to search and find other topics or even view a person’s personalized blog page, but they will not be able to reply to anything on that page. Everything will be locked down for all users except the owner of the personalized blog page.
Is BBPress right for what I want to do? Which of these tools might I need? Any suggestions on how to go about using these tools to do what I want? Thanks in advance.

How can I change the header from “Forums” to something else, or even add an image over the forums?
thanks,

Late to the party on migrating, but I think it’s time. Installed bbPress via plugins on my WordPress instance. I’d played around with it in the past so I cleared all the old data with a board reset. Went to import and put in all the information – created a new MySQL user with full permissions to the database my phpBB forum is on.
Set rows limit to 75 and Delay time to 3 – I have a pretty big forum to move.
Checked all three boxes for Convert Users, Start Over, and Purge – I want a full, clean import.
It gets right to the start of the process and says:
WordPress database error: [Table ‘XXXX_forum.users’ doesn’t exist]
(the XXXX is the name of my database)
And it gives a long string in gray after that of info I don’t quite understand.
Tried deleting the plugin and reinstalling it. I’m on the latest version of WordPress and PhpBB.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks in advance!

Forum:
I would like each forum to show the total times viewed as well as each topic to display times viewed. In addition to voices and posts column it should show how many times people have seen the threads. I have not been able to find a plugin that is still supported most seem to not have been updated in years.
Only one that could work is bbpress simple view counts but it immediately creates an error in the forum when installing.
Can you suggest one?
Thanks!

Well let’s see if the 3rd time’s a charm. My site is netballscoop.com. I’m running latest version of WordPress & BBPress. This is a sports site, w/content going back to 2007. I’d really like to make it such that only content for the current year is displayed & previous content archived to another site, but I’m having trouble. An export of only 2016 content & reimport does not work correctly (I suspect because the topic & reply numbers are messed up) & the WordPress Bulk Delete plugin simply can’t do this. Anyone got any suggestions? Please? Is this something that no one else wants to do or…?

Hello,
I am trying to get the bbpress login widget above the forum posts on the mobile version of my site.
Because the plugin is in the main sidebar, it gets placed on the bottom of the page when resizing to a mobile view.
What i want is for it to be on top of the page.
Thanks in advance,
Jeroen
