Cool, glad your sorted, your second link was protected and non-members couldn’t see it, forgot to mention that before. 😉
I just had a quick read of the topic on rtMedia
https://rtcamp.com/support/topic/media-tab-takes-me-to-bbpress-forum-profile-page/
Maybe try contacting the theme author and pointing them to that discussion, there are some good tips there in that it should be fairly easily for the themes author to troubleshoot the issue and help get a fix sorted out.
You probably just need to target the CSS to only there forum titles:
#bbpress-forums ul.forum-titles {
background: none;
margin: 0;
list-style: none;
}
This all depends where and how you are customizing your site, that particular piece of code is if you are for example making yourself a custom sidebar.php template for your site and you wanted to add it there.
In the theme here on bbpress.org they are the ‘default’ sizes, it is just a sidebar with the shortcode [bbp-topic-tags].
If you want to add custom sizes to a custom template part then something like this is a goo d start:
<?php wp_tag_cloud( array( 'smallest' => 12, 'largest' => 16, 'number' => 16, 'taxonomy' => bbp_get_topic_tag_tax_id() ) ); ?>
Should this be in an own file (named how?) and added to my childtheme’s subolder bbpress, or should I place the code somewhere in an existing file?
Any of these methods will work 😉
That said I’d download the gist from https://gist.github.com/ntwb/9887310 and extract the file and upload it as a plugin for your site.
It needs a bit more work in that it shouldn’t be displayed for the current user or anonymous users.
When I get a chance I’ll update that gist with those updates.
“Version Control Software” is how I ‘got it fixed’, everything I do these days is done using ‘version control’ it lets me know what I’ve done and easily roll back any changes I made to site or bbPress. 🙂
bbPress & WordPress use SVN though a real popular one is Git and GitHub https://github.com/
They have nice intro course for Git on GitHub here http://try.github.io and it does take a while to grasp all the concepts but once you do you would never go back to not using it 🙂
Hi, this is a known issue, sadly we don’t have a solution to fix it yet, we hope to have one in time for the next release of bbPress.
See this https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/edit-topic-reply-changes-post-order/
Let’s try it here with code and codes
Here is the tag code : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic-tag/code/ <-That works perfectly
Here is the tag codes : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic-tag/code/ <-That works perfectly
Here is the search code : https://bbpress.org/forums/search/code/ <-That works perfectly
Here is the search codes : https://bbpress.org/forums/search/codes/ <-That works perfectly
is there a way to set up so all the tags appear on a page? e.g. Tags Page? Thanks.
You would need to start modifying your bbPress templates, have a read of some of the docs on the codex that @Robin-W has pointed out to you already.
Hehehehe…. Developing WordPress themes, child themes, plugins can be like a rabbit warren, once you go down it it can me daunting to find your way back out ;;)
Glad you found the issue and got it sorted 🙂
You just need to add the following sbnippet of code to your themes functions.php file:
function custom_bbp_list_forums() {
$args['separator'] = '<br />';
return $args;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_list_forums_parse_args', 'custom_bbp_list_forums' );
I haven’t seen any plugins that do this though I don’t think it would be overly difficult for someone to make one.
Check out this article and the links in it.
It will look at a site and tell you what WordPress theme they are using 🙂
What Theme: A New Website Theme Detector Powered By WordPress
Have you tried disabling ALL your plugins and switching to the Twenty Thirteen theme?
Once you disabled the above check to see if the issues still occurs.
If it still occurs now with all that disabled try creating a new user again and check if that new ‘keymaster’ user works as expected.
Now start by re-enabling your theme, still working?
Now re-enable one pllugin, does it still work?
Now enable another plugin, still work?
You see a pattern here? Enable another plugin, still work?
I have a sneaking suspicion your using a ‘User Role’ or ‘Membership’ plugin and this is causing you an issue.
This time, it converted the users, all of the topics, and about 220,00 replies, then started just outputting dashes again. What does it mean when it starts outputting dashes? What is the program doing?
As I stated above it can be for many reasons and is a bug/error that we have not been able to isolate to fix, we have not found a way to trigger the bug allowing us to reproduce the bug and create the fix. It is a random thing as I outlined in my previous reply.
I opened a new window and re-started the conversion from that window, but instead of picking up where it left off, it started converting topics again. Am I going to have two copies of each topic in the BBPress forums now? Should I reset the forums again?
If you want the importer to resume from where it left off you need to make sure you don’t check the checkbox in the following screenshot, if you do check it then it will start again from the start and you will end up with two of everything.
Instead of using “reset forums,” can I just empty some of the MySQL tables?
This should be sufficient for most cases and because bbPress uses custom post types it shares the same wp_posts and wp_postmeta tables with WordPress and any other plugin or themes custom post types. It should be quite fast and behind the scenes it is actually doing direct MySQL queries to remove only the bbPress forums, topics, replies and topic tags from the posts, postmeta and taxonomy tables.
I know it can be frustrating getting this to work as I have been were you are now and is the reason I started using bbPress. I went through the same problems trying to import from phpBB to bbPress, I eventually got it working and started learning PHP and now as a novice PHP programmer I try my best to help others migrate their forums to bbPress and improve bbPress as best I can and it’s not easy and for an old dog learning new tricks I reckon I’m doing alright.
Finally I’ve written a small script to migrate kunena attachments to GD bbPress attachments
@cybnet Awesome thanks for this, I added it to the (still sparse) Kunena docs here.
I’ll take a closer look when I get the chance and see what ideas I can come up with. I was at a WordPress Meetup a couple of months ago that demoed a few different ways to move media from one install to another that once time permits I’d love to take a shot at including it in our importer.
Now I’d like to write a script to convert kunena BBCode into bbPress HTML because there are some bbcodes not converted.
This I can most definitely help out with now.
The SMF and phpBB importers both have some good examples of converting BBCode to ‘native’ bbPress (WordPress) code. I am simply use regular expressions to convert them on the fly as each topic or reply is converted.
eg. This Replaces [size=$1:XXXXXXXX] with <span style="font-size:$1%;">$3</span>
$phpbb_uid = preg_replace( '/\[size=(.*?):(.*?)\]/', '<span style="font-size:$1%;">', $phpbb_uid );
You can see the SMF regex here and the phpBB here. There are probably quite a few that we can repurpose and if not make up a list for me and I’ll work towards getting them added to the Kunena importers in a future release.
I’d suggest having a search around this site, the Genesis Extend plugin support forums and your own themes support forums.
I’m quite sure others would have had this issue and I have never used any of the Genesis Framework themes so off the top of my head I can’t help.
Anyone else who uses a Genesis theme here have some ideas?
I’m quite sure this is possible… Yes, done 😉
A quickly whipped up plugin https://gist.github.com/ntwb/9887310
function ntwb_bbp_bp_pm() {
if(function_exists('bp_send_private_message_link') && is_user_logged_in() ) {
?>
<a href="<?php bp_send_private_message_link() ?>" title="Private Message">Private Message</a>
<?php
}
}
add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'ntwb_bbp_bp_pm' );
Is there anything else I need to do to ensure I get that performance increase?
Be ready for bbPress v2.6 😉 We have a few performance improvements coming with this release.
The downside of our planned improvements means there is a pretty high chance we will break sites thus we have lots of testing and lots of extra code to write to make sure we don’t break anything.
Run the repair tool ‘Recalculate last activity in each topic and forum’ and that should fix your issue.
https://codex.bbpress.org/repair-forums/
This is not part of the standard bbPress, this is one of two ‘bbPress Support’ plugins, you need to view the docs of that plugin and/or ask in that plugins support forum.
Oh! I missed seeing this thread until now 🙁
@remymedranda Glad you have got your forums imported now 🙂
@kvr28 Awesome, thanks a bunch for helping out 🙂
Basically passwords are hard 😉 Adding support to convert passwords was and still is one of the hardest parts of writing the importers for bbPress.
Robin is 100% correct in that if your passwords don’t work then advising your users to perform a password reset is all you need to do to get around the issue.
This is weird, as you say there is only one copy of the forums in the backend yet two on the front :/
I see http://elitegamingcomputers.com/forum/ & http://elitegamingcomputers.com/forum/page/2/
Yet picking a forum via either page above eg http://elitegamingcomputers.com/forum/social/in-game-strategy/ is the same resulting URL from either page, the same for a topic from either forum page eg http://elitegamingcomputers.com/topic/dthpwns-pvp-keybinding-guides/
If there were duplicates from an import you would see the duplicates in the back end and when viewing the forum or topic typically one of them would end with -2, for example you would have example.com/forum/my-topic and example.com/forum/my-topic-2 as each page. forum, topic must have a unique slug.
What I do see that is weird though is your main forum page is:
http://elitegamingcomputers.com/?post_type=page&p=4947 <- That is weird
http://elitegamingcomputers.com/forum <- This is what I expect you should be using
Do you have a custom page setup for your forums and by chance do have you used the bbPress shortcode [bbp-forum-list] twice?
The topics section of your site looks and appears ‘mostly’ to work as expected:
http://elitegamingcomputers.com/topics/
The ‘By’ section in the below screenshot should not be there though.
Looking at the source of your site I know see your using a Genesis theme, do you have the Genesis bbPress Extend plugin installed and activated? https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-genesis-extend/ as you will need this.
One more thing is that 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.

http://project.arclightcomics.com/forums/
Did you import sample content from the theme you are using?
(As various menus link to herothemes.com, as is the content of your forums and herothemes.com/forums the same content, apart from the spam on their site)
This bbPress topic on your site looks and appears fine to me: http://project.arclightcomics.com/forums/topic/80s-dresses/
From what I can see everything is working as expected
So I am really not sure what you think is wrong and without more info from you we won’t be able to help either.
If it is the BuddyPress components you have issues with then explaing those issues on http://buddypress.org should help you out with that side of your issues.
