    ok, you probably need to contact your host provider to get the correct database name as it tells you that ‘mydatabasename.wpforum_forums’ doesn’t exist.

    wordpress and encryption – there are plugins such as discussed here

    https://geek.hellyer.kiwi/plugins/end-to-end-encryption/

    but either solution will be time consuming – good luck !

    ok, suggest you quit that and do

    dashboard>tools>forums>reset forums

    and then try the conversion again.

    Hey thanks for responding – I’m a testing team of 1, so knew there would be bits that weren’t right or missing.

    yes can you send me screenshots, that would be very kind.

    ok, no problem, I can’t judge how technical people are 🙂

    You can do this in your main theme, but you would do better to create a child theme

    Don’t be intimidated, the following should explain

    Functions files and child themes – explained !

    when you get to

    What is FTP and how do I access it?

    To access your files, you’ll need an FTP client. Some host providers do with within their administration area, check with your host provider if in doubt

    I’m pretty sure form memory that hostgator has an area that does that called c-panel, but check with them if in doubt

    you would do that through forums and sub forums rather than topics

    @robin-w

    can you try disabling that and seeing if the edit comes back

    @robin-w

    that is a theme issue, suggest you refer to your theme provider

    suggest you put it as a project on

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/ would solve the first one, but not encryption or a network of private diaries

    This all sounds very bespoke and time consuming

    great – glad you’re fixed !

    No problem, I fully understand your issue.

    This is working as designed, the idea being that a private forum should not indicate that a subject exists.

    Therefore it takes you to your theme’s 404.php page.

    You could modify this page to include a login offer, but after login this would only take them to the home or forums page, not to the link, but that might be better than just a 404.

    If you want to go that route, contact me via my website

    I’ve posted a response in your other thread

    sorry most mods look for topics with no replies as ‘new’ so by bumping after less than a day you fell through the system.

    support on here is free, but run by volunteers.

    Can you tell me what the link in the email is?

    this lets me login fine and it all seems to be working

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    ok, what theme and plugins are you running?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    and since bbp_reply_count is in the metadata, you’d need to refer to that

    see

    https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query

    so something like

    add_action( 'bbp_init', 'view_twentyplus_posts_init' );
    
    function view_twentyplus_posts_init() 
    {
    		
    	$args  = array( 
    
    	 'meta_key'   => '_bbp_reply_count' ,
              'orderby'  => array( 'meta_value_num' => 'DESC', 'title' => 'ASC' ),
              'meta_query' => array(
    		         array(
    			'key'     => '_bbp_reply_count' ,
    			'value'   => '19',
    			'compare' => '>',
    		),
    
    	);
    
    );
    
    	
    	bbp_register_view( 'twentyplus_posts', __('Popular Posts', 'twentyplus'), $args, false );
    	
    }

    bbpress doesn’t do it’s own moderation

    1. Do you have askimet running? This can flag users, and bbpress looks at this database.

    2. What do you have set in Dashboard>settings>discussion in moderation and balcklists

    Great – glad you’re fixed, and sorry I didn’t get to you earlier.

    Also thanks for sharing the solution which will help others in future

    not sure why you’re posting this in bbpress support forum?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    ok,

    create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
    ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
    find
    wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-single-forum.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/content-single-forum.php
    bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

    then change lines
    <?php if ( !bbp_is_forum_category() && bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘pagination’, ‘topics’ ); ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘loop’, ‘topics’ ); ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘pagination’, ‘topics’ ); ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘form’, ‘topic’ ); ?>

    <?php elseif ( !bbp_is_forum_category() ) : ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘feedback’, ‘no-topics’ ); ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘form’, ‘topic’ ); ?>

    <?php endif; ?>

    to
    <?php if ( !bbp_is_forum_category() && bbp_has_topics() ) : ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘pagination’, ‘topics’ ); ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘loop’, ‘topics’ ); ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘pagination’, ‘topics’ ); ?>

    <?php elseif ( !bbp_is_forum_category() ) : ?>

    <?php bbp_get_template_part( ‘feedback’, ‘no-topics’ ); ?>

    <?php endif; ?>

    and save

    that should do it

    How are you hiding the forums from non logged in users

    In reply to: BBPress

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    but all other can´t com in

    so what are they getting – a login screen and then what happens?

    In reply to: BBPress

    I have a problem with BBpress. Mmembers can´t login at my forum and see the post

    you will need to provide more information to enable us to help you – the above is like saying ‘my car won’t start – what’s wrong?’

    why can’t members log in, what are you using to log in, do they get this, if they do what error messages are they getting, how long has this been going on – always, just started, what else has happened to the site eg upgrades, additional plugins, new themes, can you log on? is it just one bbpress level or all levels etc. etc. etc.
