I’ve created a ticket to fix this, and it does like it was an unintended change
I’ve been traveling the past 2 weeks, will try to get to this this week
Give it a try and let me know what works and what doesn’t and we can try to get it working
You’d need to re-import though instead of matching the “real name” field, match the “username” field in your importer
With some custom development, you could @seoguru, CMB2 I’m pretty sure could handle that type of thing on the front end.
The translations are handled at https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress/stable/es/default, you should be able to search for the string and suggest a new translation
Please report any security issues known or unknown to security@wordpress.org please
Do not link to any or discuss them here please 🙂
Checkout the phpBB converter, it’s one of the best example implementations.
Use _bbp_old_topic_id to grab your old topic id:
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/includes/admin/converters/phpBB.php#L183
p.s. The above phpBB converter uses bbPress 2.6 alpha which has many new refinements for the importer over bbPress 2.5, I’d suggest you use bbPress 2.6 alpha for any imports due to those improvements, it can be found here https://bbpress.org/download (bbPress.org and wordpress.org both use bbPress 2.6)
Sure, start by ceating a ticket on Trac @mbv https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket
p.s I don’t see it being a high priority from the team right now, we’d be happy to take a look at any patches submitted and go from there of course though.
bbPress is following along with WordPress GDPR implementation, once that is sorted out we’ll implement what needs implementing for bbPress.
WordPress’ GDPR progress can be followed along via https://make.wordpress.org/core/tag/gdpr-compliance/
I’ve just created the user testtest on the site
I can login successfully using the following 3 methods:
• Using Chrome on my desktop
• Using Chrome emulating an iPhone 7+
• Using my iPhone 7+ directly
Using the above 3 methods worked successfully logging in at *both* these URLs:
• http://www.getswing.co.uk/wp-login.php
• http://www.getswing.co.uk/forums/
The only other things I can suggest is checking with your webhosting if you have any firewall applications or rules that might be the cause of this.
p.s Feel free to the delete the testtest account I created
You can use this plugin to manage roles https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-capabilities/
bbPress 2.6 coming soon adds support for per-forum moderators
Thanks @w3215, I’d love to see this sort of thing myself, or at least explore the idea and see how well a fit it fits a forum workflow….
I’ve not yet myself explored the possibilities of what we could do with bbPress and Gutenberg… I have a few ideas that I want to experiment with in the next month or so though…
I’d love to see and hear some more thoughts on these types of ideas the bbPress community has
Slack conversations can be hard to follow, anyways here’s a chat recap:
• https://make.wordpress.org/core/2018/02/16/gdpr-compliance-chat-recap-february-14th/
Thanks for this @casiepa 🙂
p.s. I’d also like to echo what Robin said, please keep the conversation about the GDPR and not make it personal, we all have differing opinions, and many of us are coming to this from different angles, for example I’m in Australia, we’ve got no legal privacy protections (this isn’t quite true, but it seems like it most of the time) but I’m more than happy to try to understand what the GDPR entails and how we can make bbPress GDPR compliant 🙂
Sorry for the late reply Dirk, could you post your “custom” importer code to https://gist.github.com/ and I’ll take a look 🙂
@tiiuk did you select phpBB from the dropdown and enter the correct database prefix?
These issues will be discussed as part of the research into the final solution @stagger-lee
I just added you to the #gdpr-compliance Slack channel @stagger-lee 🙂
Here’s the exact change in that code that was added for the next bbPress release
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/6129/
If you haven’t joined up for WordPress’ Slack please do 🙂
https://chat.wordpress.org
Please remember though, the discussions on WordPress’ Slack will be about adding GDPR to WordPress Core, as bbPress and BuddyPress are official “sister projects” of the WordPress project we’ll be for the most part following and implementing the solution WordPress Core decides upon, this will be implemented across these bbPress.org, buddypress.org, and wordpress.org support forums and shipped in an upcoming bbPress release 🙂
As a Microsoft Partner for 20+ years (which I am now no longer) I could never get my hands on any Great Plains or Dynamics, or Dynamics 365 products 🙁
That said, as Robin pointed out it should be possible, you’d have to get the database out of MSSQL and into MySQL and there are converters for that online.
