How To Troubleshoot bbPress

So if your here you have probably been using bbPress and have got an error you just can’t seem to get working. I have made myself a little list of troubleshooting techniques to resolve some of the most common bbPress errors. Remember that bbPress is now a WordPress plugin (originally it was not) so treat it like you would any other plugin.

Ok onto my troubleshooting list (generally in this order):

  1. Go to settings > forums and then recalculate permissions
  2. Go to the permalinks page
  3. Start disabling plugins one by one to see if there is a plugin conflict
  4. Disable my theme and activate a default theme (this is for front end issues).

Once you have tried everything above and you still can’t get your issue resolved then either leave a comment below or preferably head on over to the bbPress.org forums and create a topic.

If you have any further issues then let me know in the comments below and I will try and get back to you as soon as possible. Good luck with your bbPress adventures!
