    There is no need for duplicate topics a couple of hours apart.

    Closing this in favor of your first topic here.

    In the example in the picture above both the “Main Forum” and “For Sale, Wanted or to Hire” are “parent forums” and all the other forums are ‘child forums’.

    You can set each forum in the forum edit section to have a ‘parent forum’, try updating your forums and let us know how it goes.

    A quick search of the interwebz reveals this:

    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21897786/what-does-the-error-php-fatal-error-cannot-call-overloaded-function-for-non-ob

    It might not be explicitly a plugin based on that, maybe ask your web host provider about this one, it is pretty much beyond me.

    Try switching your theme to Twenty Fourteen

    My suggestion here would be to activate bbPress and try to “edit post” whatever the case may be per my previous post above (WordPress posts or bbPress topic/reply) and if you still cannot “edit” whatever it is you are trying to edit start disabling all your active plugins one by one, once you deactivate one try your ‘edit’ thing again, if it now works you know the conflicting plugin, if not disable another plugin and try again.

    Also as per another previous post of mine above:

    “My issue with the plugin is the ‘edit’ feature on posts doesn’t work”

    Could you clarify what you mean by this, editing WordPress Posts or bbPress topics/replies?

    None of those plugins standout as something that would cause the issue, though I expect most likely it is one of them…

    You state:

    When the bbPress plugin is deactivated, I can not. Instead what I see is a page that displays:

    And then:

    I disabled then deleted bbPress and still saw the error reported above. I then re-installed and re-enabled bbPress and the error went away.

    If you can’t access /wp-admin with bbPress disabled, how exactly are you re-activating bbPress?

    As stated, what other plugins do you have installed?

    @kevinbcarney The Deleting Conversion Table… Failed is nothing to worry about, this is just cleaning up and removing the extra database table if you had previously imported forums.

    Rob is also correct above (presuming you do want to delete all bbPress data)

    • Run “Reset Forums”
    • Deactivate bbPress
    • Uninstall bbPress plugin

    I’ve just tested this and I have no issues accessing the dashboard after performing the above steps.

    Caveat: You are correct that the bbp_keymaster role is still assigned to the user in wp_usermeta, though this should not block access for you to WordPress’ dashboard, there is a tweak to the uninstall/deactivation for bbPress 2.6 listed here in #2580. I also came upon another issue that I’m updating a patch for now, but again, none of this should be stopping yopu from accessing the dashboard after deactivation and/or uninstall.

    As Rob wrote, what other plugins are you using that may conflict with this? It could be any plugin role or capability related and/or other plugins that extend bbPress functionality.

    Cool, I created a ticket for this, no idea when we will get to look at doing this though.

    https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2670

    I’d suggest for now take a look at the plugin I mentioned above to allow replying by email.

    As I’m not a validator I assume I can’t replace the whole file but I’ve to rewrite all the missing stings one by one.

    That is correct.

    And yes, send a message to the Catalan translation team, they can also add you as a validator and if they do that you will be able to upload the .po file and replace the existing translations.

    p.s. The automatic translations updates are really cool 🙂

    In reply to: Random Topic Link

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Ha! Yes, I was messing about with that yesterday thinking it would solve the issue here but it does not 😉 If you add the bbPress views widget to a sidebar you will see all those views in the gist you linked above, you can also add the shortcode [bbp-single-view id="single-random-topic"] to a page it it will display the ‘topic’ list template with a single random topic.

    So it can do all that ^^^, but it will not work as a ‘button’ so you can’t have a button with ‘Click this for a random topic’ 🙁

    Something like this should work though:

    https://gist.github.com/ntwb/ca87b9b75a42215b2889

    
    function ntwb_bbpress_random_single_topic() {
        if ( bbp_has_topics( array( 'orderby' => 'rand', 'posts_per_page' => 1 ) ) ) {
     
            while ( bbp_topics() ) : bbp_the_topic();
     
                ?>
                <a class="bbp-topic-permalink" href="<?php bbp_topic_permalink(); ?>"><?php bbp_topic_title(); ?></a>
                <?php
     
            endwhile;
        }
    }
    // Hook into action
    add_action('bbp_template_before_lead_topic','ntwb_bbpress_random_single_topic');
    // Add it as a shortcode [ntwb-bbpress-random-single-topic]
    add_shortcode('ntwb-bbpress-random-single-topic', 'ntwb_bbpress_random_single_topic');
    

    I’m hooking it into just before the ‘lead topic’ (bbp_template_before_lead_topic) in the example above but you could hook that anywhere you would like.

    I also add it as a shortcode [ntwb-bbpress-random-single-topic] for use that way.

    Make any changes you want to the HTML, I am just doing it as a HTML a anchor link with the permalink bbp_topic_permalink() and the link title as the topic title bbp_topic_title(). Change all that HTML code to a button, remove <?php bbp_topic_title(); ?> and replace with Random Topic or whatever takes your fancy.

    bbPress includes two vBulletin importers, one is vBulletin3 for vBulettin 3.x and the other vBulletin is for the 4.x versions.

    Did you try the both or only the 3.x version?

    Typically if you want to reverse the order of replies then also adding bbPress “Show lead topic” is handy:

    bbp_show_lead_topic

    Cool, the timezone thing makes sense if you are going to use explicit times and dates eg. 11th January 2011, though just take a look at this page we are discussing this on here, everything is relative, 12 hours ago, 1 day 7 hours ago etc.

    So this is partially the way bbPress works around this issue, if WordPress Core fully supported users locales then we would for sure update bbPress to also include this.’

    I found the Trac ticket for WordPress to add this functionality, details are here:

    I posted here about this, I haven’t taken a look at this feature specificly yet but I do plan on doing just that quite soon.

    This has nothing to do with bbPress, I’d suggest you try posting on WordPress’ support forums:

    @farsite281 Thanks for this though you should submit your translations in the GlotPress project you linked above:

    https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/2.5.x/ca/default
    https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev/ca/default

    Catalan Language

    • /dev 43% translated, 466 strings translated, 602 Strings untranslated and 401 strings waiting approval
    • /2.5 44% translated, 467 strings translated, 572 Strings untranslated and 160 strings waiting approval

    The best resources to help get you started are:

    The main transators handbook: https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/

    The WordPress translator community blog: https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/

    bbPress translations reference: https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/

    WordPress Catalan project site: https://ca.wordpress.org/

    The reason I state that it is best to provide (and update) the bbPress (including WordPress, BuddyPress and Akismet) translations at https://translate.wordpress.org/projects is because each of these projects can have the translations updated as part of WordPress’ “Automatic Updates”, just like you see updates for your plugins and themes, if any of these projects are 100% translated you will be offered to update all of your translations from the WordPress dashboard updates page.

    Things look correct now, did you fix this?

    If not please give specific links to show what your issue is, you have too many topics and forums for me to guess which one you are talking about.

    Have you run any of the repair tools to see if they fix the issue?

    https://codex.bbpress.org/repair-forums/

    Also, WordPress doesn’t support multiple timzezones for users so this is not included with bbPress for that reason, they appears to be a few plugins that might be able to do this though I haven’t seen any that are compatible with bbPress, but you could have a look yourself.

    Thanks for the explanation and it’s all good, I’m with you now, the Firmasite theme uses modified templates and thats where the ‘details’ link comes from.

    Kind of a weird issue though, I’d double check that it is not an issue with the Firmasite theme, try switching your theme to Twenty Fourteen with bbPress and NextGEN Gallery enabled and see if the issue persists.

    Sounds like a conflict with another plugin, strange, but can happen.

    Were you shown an error message? If so what is the message?

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    @louisedade Thanks, we have a ticket somewhere in our bug tracker Trac that relates extremely close to what you are looking for, it is slated to be looked at for the next release of bbPress 2.6. Basically bbPress and BuddyPress each do their own hidden and private things differently and as a result of that there are a handful of permutations and combinations we need to tweak and fix so they work as expected.

    @netweb

    Keymaster

    Is this what you are referring to?

    Edit: There is another option that works, quite a different approach though, but it does make for quick replies to topics and that is to use the bbPress-Reply-by-Email plugin, setup topic notifications for yourself and reply pretty quickly using your favorite own email client.

    @netweb

    Make sure you do not have any plugin conflicts by disabling them all except bbPress, also make sure the settings is enabled in bbPress settings.
