What is bbPress?

bbPress is forum software made by the WordPress community and delivered as a WordPress plugin. It adds forums, topics and replies to a WordPress site, sharing the same accounts and admin area. Lead developers named on the official site are John James Jacoby and Matt Mullenweg. It is GPL licensed.

How to install bbPress on Hostripples: choose a plan, open Softaculous, bbPress is live

Licence: GPL · Built with: PHP (WordPress plugin) + MySQL · Official site: bbpress.org

Common uses

  • Community forum on an existing WordPress site
  • Customer support or Q&A board next to a blog
  • Member discussion area sharing WordPress logins
  • Migrating an older forum into WordPress

bbPress requirements

  • PHP: PHP 5.6.20 or higher per the WordPress.org plugin listing (the bbPress requirements page lists an older 5.2.4 minimum and recommends PHP 7)
  • Database: MySQL 5.0+ or MariaDB 10.0+ (per bbPress requirements page)
  • A WordPress site (plugin listing states WordPress 6.0 or higher)

bbPress runs on any host that meets WordPress requirements, so standard PHP and MySQL on cPanel is enough. It is a plugin, so it needs a WordPress installation to work.

  • All-NVMe storage and LiteSpeed Enterprise with LSCache for quick page loads
  • Selectable PHP versions per site and CloudLinux account isolation with CageFS
