Where are you downloading BuddyPress 2.2 Alpha from? bbPress and BuddyPress share (mostly) the same setup for development.
If it is from https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/developers/ via the Development Version .zip link https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/buddypress.zip then bbPress is the same structure via https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/developers/ and the Development Version .zip link https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.zip
To get the “full” bleeding edge alpha’s requires quite a bit more setup at your end as bbPress and BuddyPress have recently switched to using a new build process and these are not designed to be run on a live website, only for local development on your local computer, I can point you to the docs for this if that is what you are after though 🙂
Awesome topic tags btw 😉
Download the plugin I have here, unzip it and upload it to your site and activate. 🙂
Edit: Users will then be able to use HTML table tags, e.g. <table>, <td>, <tr> etc
@bepyland If you set the bbPress import rows to 50,000 that would be one single query, it would not work though unless you had one amazing MySQL installation. 😉
What the “rows” value means is how many topics or replies for each single query should be imported at a time, the default is 100, so when the importer is running each single query will import 100 topics at a time.
WordPress itself, and then bbPress also make queries along the way so just counting only bbPress import is not the only calculation needed.
Your best bet is to create a test site to test the import before migrating this to your “live” site:
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
See the code I just posted here, add’s the CSS classes without template modifications 🙂
Topic background color depending on role
Also going to close this, rather than others bumping it in the future 😉
For #3 the user topic and reply counts underneath their role in each topic/reply will be in the next release of bbPress.
And images based on forum roles can be achieved using the same code I just posted here by inserting the image using CSS :before or :after pseudo elements .
This should do the trick without any template modifications:
add_filter('bbp_before_get_reply_author_role_parse_args', 'ntwb_bbpress_reply_css_role' );
function ntwb_bbpress_reply_css_role() {
$role = strtolower( bbp_get_user_display_role( bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id ) ) );
$args['class'] = 'bbp-author-role bbp-author-role-' . $role;
$args['before'] = '';
$args['after'] = '';
return $args;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_get_topic_author_role_parse_args', 'ntwb_bbpress_topic_css_role' );
function ntwb_bbpress_topic_css_role() {
$role = strtolower( bbp_get_user_display_role( bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id ) ) );
$args['class'] = 'bbp-author-role bbp-author-role-' . $role;
$args['before'] = '';
$args['after'] = '';
return $args;
}
It grabs the topic or reply author role and adds another CSS class with prefix bbp-role- so you now have a new set of CSS classes e.g. bbp-role-keymaster, bbp-role-moderator, bbp-role-participant etc that you can then add your custom CSS styles to.
I just replied to the BuddyPress topic you posted…
Maybe try a ‘different’ disable email plugin is an option, I haven’t tried this but this one was recently updated and states it’s compatible with WordPress 4.0 https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-emails/
I just moved your topic as it really has nothing to do with the other topic.
You shouldn’t need a plugin to do that, simply browse to http://example.com/topics and you’ll have a list of the most recent topics or topics with replies sorted by freshness.
As for colours, that will depend upon the theme, if the theme includes customised templates for bbPress then typically yes, if it does not you’ll end up with the some default colors bbPress sets for you in this case.
There are lots of docs here to browse also https://codex.bbpress.org/
Did you run the repair tools?
The counts won’t be accurate until after you’ve run each repair tool, this should also match up the forum and topic meta so you see your replies with the topics.
Awesome 🙂
And I agree, I hate that I can’t ‘fix’ this yet, I’ve manually replaced the data in affected rows to no avail, as @JJJ pointed out, it is most likely an encoding issue 😉
@pooledge Oh! That is not good and would most likely be the cause 🙁
I just created a user Вук Стефановић Караџић (WikiPedia: Vuk Stefanović Karadžić) and indeed the user was not imported.
A quick look around and all we need to do is sanitize the username, I’ll look to add this to bbPress Core in a future release, probably quite a few bits of testing for other language scripts.
For now though install and activate @SergeyBiryukov‘s Allow Cyrillic Usernames WordPress plugin and these will import perfectly. 🙂
Also added this to our codex https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/import-troubleshooting/#cyrillic-usernames
хаве а нице даи 🙂
Edit: This plugin is a slightly improved version allowing with better support for Cyrillic and Arabic usernames in WordPress.
@mlduclos See https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/import-troubleshooting/ for troubleshooting rows not imported, I haven’t ever tested a ‘Non English” import but I expect it should work just fine 🙂
@pooledge Thanks and that is weird, do any of the imported user names have a prefix imported_ e.g. imported_pooledge? If so you’ll need to make sure you also delete any existing imported users before you try reimporting again otherwise the user ID’s will not match the imported posts.
If they don’t have the imported_ prefix is there any common reason as to why some usernames are not imported? Do the users that are not imported have special characters, hyphens, whitespace in their username or anything else in common with each other, maybe they were all moderators or a different role on your SMF forum.
Presuming your doing this on a copy of your phpBB database, delete that row and continue on until your import completes, typically I haven’t had an import need more than 10 of these and depending on if it is a topic or reply and the context of the post I have either not worried about it or I have manually recreated in bbPress and assigned it to that user after the import has finished.
I’m sitting here on a beautiful sunny afternoon in Melbourne typing this on my iPad…

This “should” work fine and I’ve not heard of this before, can you test this with a WordPress default theme or two, Twenty Fourteen and Twenty Thirteen, I expect this to be a theme issue with whatever theme your using rather than a bbPress issue.
The ----- is caused when WordPress has dropped it’s authentication session with MySQL.
As to further improvements, that is cool and would be great, using the same username and password here if you can create a a new ticket on Trac, our bug tracker here that would be great, if your familiar with SVN you can check out the source and upload a patch.
No, in this case that will not work, what has actually happened is WordPress has “lost” the login connection to MySQL, just refresh the page and login to WordPress again if needed and your fixed.
Once the import finishes you will be prompted with a link to the repair tools, you need to run each of these after importing so bbPress, you can’t do this until everything is imported.
Edit: I think you may be inferring the import doesn’t ever actually finish?
If that is the case see the docs here: https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/import-troubleshooting/
Sorry for the late reply, this has been fixed for the next release of bbPress
Thanks, I’ll need to go and setup a similar configuration tomororw, it’s already after 9pm here local time and I’ll get back to, so for now re-activate your plugins.
A couple of questions:
1. Is this the same permalink setting you have always used?
2. Have you run any of the repair tools? Can you try running each of them and see if there is a change? (Tools -> Forums)
Also FYI all your topics appear fine via http://www.sailscorpion.co.uk/?post_type=topic, (typically with pretty permalinks this would be http://www.sailscorpion.co.uk/topics)
And I moved your topic to a separate topic and wrapped some code backticks 😉
What happens if you create a new third user? Does the same weirdness occur?
Looking at the backwpup_admin is this from a plugin creating a WordPress custom role? Maybe https://wordpress.org/plugins/backwpup/?
If that is the case what happens when you disable this plugin and try updating the roles?
Again with that plugin disabled what happens when you create another new user?
I still see plugins enabled, the issue cannot be reproduced with only WordPress 4.0 and bbPress 2.5.4, thus in every instance thus far this issue has occurred it has been a plugin conflict, we need to find this conflict to work out where to from here.
It should take only a few minutes to test this as I outlined in my original reply above.
This could be an issue with your rewrite rules. To fix this try resetting your permalinks. In your WordPress Administration Screens navigate to Settings > Permalinks, select a different permalink structure and save. Then select your preferred permalink structure and save again.
Are you saying this worked as expected with bbPress 2.5.3 and now 2.5.4 has broken this functionality?
I moved your topic as separate topics will be more helpful for for both us and yourself 🙂
Can you try opening a topic on your forum that has a topic and a couple of replies in a separate browser tab.
Then in another browser tab start deactivating each of your plugins one by one and after deactivating each plugin refresh your topic page, once your topic refreshes and see you both the topic and the reply the plugin causing issues will be the last one you deactivated.
What is that plugin?
