Hi

I am relatively new to WP … and currently trying to set up a community site based on Buddypress components. We created a group with a private forum, which shows up on the /forum page BUT if you click the link, you get a page not found error.
I am using the newest version of WP 3.5.1 & of Buddypress & BBforum.
I suppose this is the correct link structure, which was created automatically: /groups/new-private-forum/forum/

How do I solve this? Actually the specific group is supposed to be introduced to its new users tomorrow with the forum playing a key role.

I would appreciate any assistance.

So what can be done?

This is a new site Buddypress based site with Groups and if you make your Group create a private forum, it is not accessible (page not found error), although you see it in the Forums list!
🙁

@xprt007 so basically when you say latest WP 3.5.1, BP 1.7 and now bbPress 2.3, right? If your group is set to Private then the Group Forum created via https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/ should be private as well. So the question is, how did you set up your forum for that group?

Hi
I certainly did not go through all the details, though in another installation the link was working.
After going through the steps, I edited some settings under “B. Set Up Group and Sitewide Forums” and now the group forum is now active. I learned quite a number of new things about forums/group forums.

Thank you very much!

Kind regards
