Closing in favor of the other topic here 😉

You should look to a WordPress plugin for this, not specificly bbPress.

You should look at using a 3rd party email provider for this to ensure your emails sent to 22k user is not flagged as spam as there will be a high change it will if you do yourself unless you do it over the space of a few days in batches.

E.g. Start from here and find one that can do what you are looking for:

I read this today, it gives a good run down of the options you have. 🙂

bbPress does not include ‘unread’ topics/replies out of the box, there are a few plugins that add this feature but I have no idea if any are supported by Tapatalk.

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 11 months ago]

Just run the repair tool “Remap existing users to default forum roles”

Whatever role you have set in bbPress ‘Auto role’ the default is ‘Participant’ will be assigned to all the users except ‘Administrators’ they will be assigned the bbPress role ‘Keymaster”

I moved this to it’s own topic….

You have an advantage that you are already using v1.2, now you just install WordPress, install bbPress v2.x plugin and convert your old v1.2 forums to v2.x.

I’d suggest the best place for detailed instructions on what to do in this regard would be to check out this existing topic:

Cool, glad your sorted, or on your way to being sorted 🙂

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 11 months ago]

Awesome, let me know how it goes 🙂

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 11 months ago]

Thanks for this, partially confirmed what you are seeing, I am going to reply in the ticket so we can track this explicitly in a single location, if you could keep your feedback to that ticket in future that would be great.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2593

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 11 months ago]

We have a ticket in Trac for this here, no patch yet though.https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2204

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 11 months ago]

The patch should work fine for any user with the capability read_private_replies which includes the included bbPress Keymaster and Moderator. Are you sure the user/role you are using has the read_private_replies capability?

Install this plugin and navigate to the users profile in the WordPress dashboard to confirm the role and capability of a user.

If they are commercial plugins and are not GPL licensed they will not be listed.

If they are GPL licensed and they are in the WordPress plugin repository they will be automatically included in our plugin list https://bbpress.org/plugins

Switch to one of WordPress default themes, Twenty Thirteen or Twenty Fourteen.

If bbPress works try your theme again, if bbPress doesn’t deactivate the plugin, delete it and reinstall.

And or try deactivating all your plugins except bbPress then reactivate one by one until the error occurs to find a conflicting plugin.

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 11 months ago]

Agreed seems weird, 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.

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 11 months ago]

Confirmed, thanks for the detailed steps, makes it so much easier to replicate 🙂

Patched and fixed for bbPress 2.6 via https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2593

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 12 months ago]

A clean install breaks it again. I’m not sure what it is that out-of-the-box would break it like that, but it appears there is a conflict between BuddyPress 2.0 and bbPress 2.5.3.

This is extremely rare, not saying it can’t happen, the fact that BuddyPress uses bbPress for forums 99% of the time the BuddyPress developers will have bbPress enabled. I have BuddyPress enabled for ~75% of the time and typically only deactivate it when working on bbPress profiles. In short we usually catch any conflicts ourselves before releasing a new version of either plugin.

Also the fact that I have both plugins activated now using the same slugs you are trying to use and don’t get that error eliminates the plugins having a conflict as the issue in this case.

Can you spin up an entirely fresh WordPress install with just bbPress and BuddyPress and use the Twenty Fourteen theme and see if the issue still occurs.

I just went trawling through the raw database options for WordPress in wp_options trying to find something that may cause the conflict and couldn’t find anything of interest.

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 12 months ago]

Oh… Maybe try this before you go any further as I am sure this is just a slug conflict somewhere…

Using ‘sound-off-forum’ as you have in your example works for me

https://i.cloudup.com/K4YTnskjg0.png

If I change my forums root slug to ‘groups’ I get the error “Possible BuddyPress conflict: Groups page“, thus I have a slug conflict with BuddyPress’ ‘Groups’ page.

So onto your “Possible BuddyPress conflict: Sound Off Forum page” error.

Are you using BuddyPress’ ‘Legacy’ Group Forums?

Do any of your BuddyPress Activity, Groups, Members, Register or Activate BuddyPress page settings link to that same ‘sound-off-forum’ page and/or have page names with a similar slug name?

https://i.cloudup.com/RxLi9qai1J.png

Lastly what bbPress settings are you using for the BuddyPress group forums setting?
(at the bottom of the bbPress settings page)

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 12 months ago]

I’ve used that new plugin. It didn’t work at all.

So for the three you mention and the new one I added have you added any topics to their support forums asking for help?

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 12 months ago]

Throughout WordPress and bbPress and BuddyPress included having posts, pages, terms can NOT have the same slug, most likely you have something else either titled or using the slug discuss and this includes any items in trash as even though they are in the trash they still reserve that slug and it is not released until the item is removed from the trash.

I cant seem to find an error for the term “Possible BuddyPress Conflict”, where are you seeing this error?

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 12 months ago]

Doing so breaks the page. It creates a conflict by attempting to dynamically generate a forum root, using the same url as the wordpress page which is using the shortcode.

This works fine for me and is part of the backend philosophy of how bbPress works allowing a page with the same name as the forum root to take precedence.

* Created a page titled discuss and added the shortcode [bbp-forum-index]
* Changed the bbPress setting ‘Forum Root Slug -> Forum Root’ to discuss

So now for the site http://example.com/
– A forum list at http://example.com/discuss/
– A topic at http://example.com/discuss/topic/exammple-topic/
– A forum at http://example.com/discuss/forum/example-forum/

After 1 day importet from e107 forum tu bbpress! Alleluia!

Excellent 🙂

old code for video youtube not fix

I’ll take a look at the BBCode’s and see what I can find and add some conversions for them (if I can can)

utf8 encoding accented words not fix

Hmmmm, this might be a little harder, will take a look.

Stephen for news and content from e107 to wordpress I asked a programmer who will take me some money, if he fails, can you do it?

I’m not sure I’d be able to help, I have never used e107, I have a basic forum setup and that is it. I do everything I need for bbPress directly in the MySQL database.

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 12 months ago]

Have you downloaded your Invision MySQL database and imported it into your local MAMP/XAMPP MySQL server? (We do not support connecting to remote databases)

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 12 months ago]

Do you think there is a limit with database size?

No, all size constraints are upstream and relate directly to WordPress and the size you are talking about is not an issue.

There is almost 100,000 posts and the database is bigger than 350 Mb

That’s fine…

Now the fine print, this will take a while to import, depending on your setup it might be a couple of hours right through to 8, 16 or 24, “how long is a piece of string” theory.

I am not sure what tools Invision includes but optimizing and cleaning the database first is a very good idea.

As bbPress imports the topics and replies it parses all the BBCodes ([b][i][url] etc) through a custom conversion script, if it comes across data it doesn’t like it will stop and no longer continue. Thus it is advisable to setup a local MAMP/XAMPP install and perform an import on your local machine as it gives you a good idea on how the process works, how much time it will take and the data integrity. Once your happy with all that then give it a go on your webhost.

[@netweb Keymaster 10 years, 12 months ago]

Thanks, I’ll take a closer look at this when I get a chance.
