Hey there,
well, I’m not sure if this is the right subforum, so please feel free to
I am running a site where we have admins, authors and editors (which can review editors’ posts before putting them on-air). So, since now, we protected our WP backend with .htpasswd and .htaccess so no one could register/login without knowing the credentials for this extra anti-brute-foce gate.
Now I decided to stop using phpBB and switching to bbPress for my website, and as it seems, I need to remove the htaccess/htpasswd thingy to open up WP for all users to make it possible for people to register for the forums.
This makes me become concerned about the security of my site because anyone can register then – spammers as well as those brute-forcing id***s.
So, what can you recommend to have a WP website running bbPress while keeping the security level as high as possible?
Using: bbpress 2.5.5 | WP 4.1.1 | SmartMag Theme | http://www.booknerds.de (forum not on-air yet)
Simple note to bbPress creators, If you change all background: & background-color: to transparent; It should be compatible with any theme. Also I don’t think it’s a good idea to have minus pixels e.g. -3px; and the search form is miles to big. But keep up the good work as it’s worth it.
Hello! I have installed bbpress to my wordpress site that I host on a private host. Everything seems to have installed fine. So here is the problem. No users, regardless of their role, is able to view the initial topic post. All replies are viewable, just not the original post.
Website: http://main.coto-online.com/forums/
I have tried repairing the forums, and it doesn’t work. I have tried disabling/re-enabling plugins and it doesn’t work. I’m hesitant to uninstall/reinstall the forums as I don’t want to lose the posts members have already made.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I installed a new bbpress 2.5.5 and noticed, that there is no space between the breadcrumb and the subscription-toggle:
How can I add some space? With CSS or in the code? What’s the better way?
Thanks for help in advance!

Hi. I have inherited a site using BBpress and there are some issues with new user registration. The forum settings are to give new registered users a Participant role, and my WP default is Subscriber for new users.
However, when somebody new registers for the forum, they are given full Admin access in wordpress. Obviously not something that is desirable.
I’m running the latest versions of both WP and BB. Please advise!
What is the best plug-in translate for bb press ? any suggestions ???
How can I put a link to last reply of the topic.
I will that the user click on the Topic title and jump to last reply of this topic.
My page at www.ncfblues.org is using the evolve theme. I have installed bbpress and created a forums page but the forums will not show. I can’t figure out why since the evolve theme claims to be 100% compatible with bbpress. Also, if the user clicks their name on the bbpress user profile link it’s not taking them to their profile page. I would greatly appreciate some help and guidance.
Hello,
when someone create a new post, my bbpress sent out an email to the subcribers of this Forum and to an email named noreply@radenavigator.ch. Why does this happen?
The Domain of my Forum is Tradenavigator.ch not radenavigator.ch. So the mail have to be noreply@Tradenavigator.ch. Why try bbpress to sent to this adress, I did not specified this.
Possible I made a mistake during Installation of bbpress and forgot the T, but I correct this. Can’t fount any wrong email in the Settings. Search the mql-Database for this string, nothing found 🙁
Can someone explain to me why this email was generated? And how can I solve this Problem?
thanks!
Gerd
