The best bbPress shortcodes for WordPress

This is a list of the best bbPress shortcodes for WordPress websites. Default bbPress shortcodes can be used to create macros that are used in the layout of the forum content of your WordPress pages. The shortcodes can be inserted into any WordPress page, including widget spaces and PHP/template files.

 How to use BBPress Shortcodes

To use a BBPress Shortcode, simply copy and paste (insert) the code into your desired WordPress page and remove the space between [ and bbp  in the code.

BBPress Shortcode Example

bbPress account shortcodes

bbPress account shortcodes are used to easily display the login, register, and password reset forms.

If your WordPress theme does not have additional bbPress template pages, these shortcodes can be used to create separate pages, such as a login page.

Login form

[ bbp-login]

Register form

[ bbp-register]

Password reset form

[ bbp-lost-pass]

bbPress forums shortcodes

bbPress forums shortcodes can be used to display your bbPress forum on your WordPress website. You can display a “New Forum” form and display single forum topics.

These forum shortcodes are great for creating a forum index (aside from the existing BBPress forums page ) if needed and work well when establishing internal links between article/post and forum content.

bbPress topic shortcodes
