my style pack plugin let you do that

bbp style pack

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>topic order tab

and then you can set an alternate for one or more forums

[Robin W]

Add this to your functions file

add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_content', 'rew_remove_code_tags', 10, 2 );

function rew_remove_code_tags ($content, $reply_id) {
	if (!is_user_logged_in()) {
		$content = preg_replace("/<code>.+?<\/code>/i", "", $content);
	}
	
return apply_filters( 'rew_remove_code_tags', $content, $reply_id );
}

you can export topics and replies using wordpress to an xml

go to

dashboard>tools>export>and select topics and replies

or if you want csv, this plugin may work (it is quite old, but as you’re exporting might be worth a try)

DB Tables Import/Export

MySQL 5.2 does not appear to be a supported version

https://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/database.html

that may (or may not) be the issue 🙂

[Robin W]

we need to be able to see your site – see other thread and once site is visible come back

[Robin W]

installing and uninstalling will not impact performance.

[Robin W]

We were all newbies once, so please don’t worry about not being able to explain in technical terms !

The problem of course is that I can’t see your site, so it is like you phoning me up and saying your car is making a funny noise, what’s wrong? 🙂 🙂

I’d suggest we get to something you can publish, and then when you have I can give better help once I can see the site.

So try this :

install

bbp style pack

and activate

Once activated go to

Dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>login and you’ll see setting that will let you add a login and register in the menu rather than a widget.

You will also see that you can style lots of things, so the text size on the forum page is changed by

Dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forums Index Styling>5. links

[Robin W]

I think you have your forums set as private

In dashboard>forums>all forums>edit forum you can change a forum to be public.

If this is not the case come back.

There is not a specific importer for Microsoft dynamics 365, but importing from a sql database is possible if you know where the data is stored.

If you download bbpress, you can find an example importer in

includes/admin/convertors/example.php

if you can map where the data is in the source, then this can be tailored to import

[Robin W]

Sorry that did not translate well, can you try again

bbpress powers some very large forums, including this one.

Performance could be down to many many factors, and I’m not sure that we can help.

[Robin W]

what version of MySQL are you on ?

[Robin W]

I don’t understand quite what ‘bbPress Forum Redirect’ does – the plugin page seems to say it just takes you to an external site?

1. What are you putting into the url on the metabox,
2. I don’t understand what the user is doing can you give an example of what they are clicking/typing to start
3. Can you then say what happens without and what happens with that is different ?

[Robin W]

what other plugins do you have ?

[Robin W]

There are miscreants out there who just have bad things on their minds.

🙂

[Robin W]

if you want to restrict to just registered users, then simply set the forum to private

dashboard>setting>forums>all forums>edit forum and just set to private on then right hand side.

If you want something more complex, then my private groups plugin gives lots of granularity

Private groups

[Robin W]

thanks

[Robin W]

that link shows no topics.

But if you can give me a link with an example, then I can help

[Robin W]

ok, I’ve done a very basic version in my style pack plugin, which would let you use a shortcode in say a widget.

bbp style pack

once installed go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes and see the last one

In our case, we have only 5 forums and we were thinking it would be nice to show the same information available in the “Forums” section in the backend of WordPress where it displays a column of the number of subscribers for each forum.

Pascals tollkit will show the number of sucsbribers in the backend as a column

bbP Toolkit

I need to do much more to do what you want for the rest.

[Robin W]

ok, I played with this for a while, and any solution would be site/theme specific and beyond free help I’m afraid.

[Robin W]

@netweb

Did you do a bbpress to bbpress importer? I know it was mentioned some time ago.

[Robin W]

Possible? – not without a load of bespoke code – I’m afraid

[Robin W]

forums have breadcrumbs to help navigation.

Yours appear to be switch off, possible by your theme?

[Robin W]

ok, just posting for anyone searching in future

THIS IS A WORKING VERSION

This code allows a standard gravity form lets it be saved as a gravity forum, but on saving also creates a new topic form for a specific forum

add_action( 'gform_after_submission', 'set_post_content', 10, 2 );

function set_post_content( $entry, $form ) {
	//set the forum ID that the topic will be saved to
	$forum_ID = '31086' ;
	
	if (!function_exists('bbp_insert_topic')) {
            require_once '/includes/topics/functions.php';
        }
		
		//getting post
		$post_form = get_post($entry['post_id']) ;
		$title = $post_form->post_title;
		$content = $post_form->post_content;

        // The topic data.
        $topic_data = array(
        'post_parent'       => $forum_ID, // forum ID of Projects  hard coded
        'post_status'       => bbp_get_public_status_id(),   // Subscribed users can see this
        'post_content'      => $content,
        'post_title'        => $title,
        'comment_status'    => 'open',
        'menu_order'        => 0
        );

        // The topic meta.
        $topic_meta = array(
        'forum_id'    =>  $forum_ID,
        'reply_count' => 0
		);

        $post_id = bbp_insert_topic($topic_data, $topic_meta);
           
}

ok, we need to do some tests
