create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-user-register.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/form-user-register.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this file.
The wp_pmxi table is related to WP ALL Import
Since this plugin is a paid plugin, you will need to contact their support for help.
yes with bbpress you can make a post sticky or super sticky – stick or stick to front
sticky puts it at the top of its forum, super sticky put it at the top of all forums

Fantastic, glad that through persistence you got there. I started with bbpress 4 years ago, from a Snitz database, and it took 24 attempts to get the custom importer to work, so I know the frustration you have gone through.
I can’t comment on the missing fields as I don’t know phpBB, but thanks for posting the solution, this should help others trying the import.
if you have put the code in the plugin – that’s it !
On a load, the code looks to see if it is a topic or reply, and if so turns off pingbacks
no.
The simplest way is to use this plugin
Code Snippets
and put the code in there
I just looked in trac, and fixing this is now a 2.8 goal.
However this looks like it might help
// Force ping_status on bbPress post types
add_filter( 'pings_open', 'rew_force_ping_status' );
function rew_force_ping_status( $open, $post_id = 0 ) {
// Get the post type of the post ID
$post_type = get_post_type( $post_id );
// Default return value is what is passed in $open
$retval = $open;
// Only force for bbPress post types
switch ( $post_type ) {
case bbp_get_forum_post_type() :
case bbp_get_topic_post_type() :
case bbp_get_reply_post_type() :
$retval = false;
break;
// Allow override of the override
return apply_filters( 'rew_force_ping_status', $retval, $open, $post_id, $post_type );
}
not within free help, sorry, but if you have a way to allocate I could probably write some code cheaply
contact me via
http://www.rewweb.co.uk
given that you purchased the theme, raise the issue with the theme author
great – glad you are fixed
I’m just a user who helps out here, and I haven’t tested it. Most authorities (eg Yoast, Wordfence) recommend holding off on 5.0 until 5.1 with bug fixes probably around January is likely to be released.
I’ll do my test site then
how did you disable avatars?
The space is where the site is trying to show your avatar
<a href="http://logicbenchmarks.com/forums/users/logicbenchmarks/" title="View Admin's profile" class="bbp-author-avatar" rel="nofollow"></a>
which is somehow not showing – no idea why, but suspect you have code doing this
I’d suggest you run the repair tools
dashboard>tools>forums>repair forums and run one at a time
That is very strange.
Can you contact me via the email in my website
http://www.rewweb.co.uk, as I need you to send me some info
my style pack plugin allows you to do that
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forum Order
I am author of the style pack plugin, and 4.0.3 shouldn’t have anything that would affect your site, but please as a test, deactivate it and check that it is not causing any issue, you will not lose any settings, and as soon as you have looked you can re-enable it.
Then come back
great – glad you are fixed
I’ve just added this functionality to my style pack plugin
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topic/Reply Display
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topics Index Styling
great – glad you are fixed
you have two options
1. delete everything and start again
dashboard>tools>forums>reset forums
2. just deactivate and delete 2.6 and install 2.5.14 – that should work, but I’m not sure whether 2.6 has anything funny in changes to the database
you should have version 2.5.14 which is the latest authorised release.
