    Alright then the SMF importer might need an update or I just don’t know enough for another suggestion. I will contact Stephen later today about this.

    I cannot reproduce on my wampserver with the permalinks with ID plugin so it is not that.

    I did find information about this though, the #038; should be &which makes sense.

    If you search for this kind of error in google, you will see countless posts of themes, plugins, and WordPress itself having the issue, So maybe make sure you have everything up to date.

    There are some fixes online too, but they are mostly saying edit WordPress core files to fix it

    I approved the topic just now so it should be visible sitewide.

    Try some troubleshooting. I am thinking a possible plugin issue with the menu items. The forums only being visible to Admin is the tricky one I can’t really pinpoint.

    Ahh Okay that is what the exact error message is. Time out is a term that could go with a few issues.

    If you google that specific error and just add wordpress to the end you will see a few reports of Hosting being the issue, sometimes especially if you use GoDaddy.

    So that exact error might just be a server error.

    I have been changing a bit of translations in the code – that’s why you might find a mistake here. What I don’t understand is, that when I upload all the original files, it still does the same mistake.

    Can’t you tell me if there’s some specific files that I should re-upload as original, in case I’ve changed something in them?

    What files did you edit, if you did edit any files?? I hope you did not edit the bbPress plugin files in the plugin directory of your site??

    I’ve never used child themes before, so I’m not sure how to do this.

    This will help you learn about creating a child theme.

    https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    After creating the child theme just copy the bbPress templates to your child theme in a folder called bbpress.

    Or second option: Could you rewrite the htaccess hack so it might work? 🙂

    You really shouldn’t need an htaccess hack at all, that is why I said don’t use it yet.

    Yeah I saw this while searching to see if users had similar issues. I think the error message was displaying in the browser like this user said instead of being on the forums as a bbPress error message.

    This user says a fix could be using wp-cron and sending the notifications in the background, which the notify no spam version does.

    https://wordpress.org/support/topic/long-script-running-timeout-errors-after-months-of-working-correctly

    This error could also be just on the user’s side and all they have to do is clear up their coookies, browser cache, all that browser goodness.

    bbPress notify (not no spam) had a similar issue before I wonder if the forked version (notify no spam) has had the error. That is the only thing I can say to check out possibly, but you would need more information from the user.

    You haven’t been editing core files right?? There are other ways you can translate bbPress, unless you are just editing the templates that you can copy into your child theme?

    There might be another thing you could do if you haven’t already, place all the bbPress templates in a child theme of theme in a folder called bbpress.

    Theme Compatibility

    Also remove the htaccess hack since it seems not to work. I don’t want it causing issues.

    Did you copy and edit the bbPress templates in your child theme heavily?? Removing the hook @kachan64 pointed out, can make the code not work.

    Also does the picture save correctly in the WordPress backend?? If you could link to a forum that should has a topic with a featured image, I can check to see if there is a CSS problem.

    Bunch of plugins can do this.

    This one also has auto subscribe to topics too.

    When you close a forum/category you can possibly close the topics and sub forums of it. Check and see what forums you have closed in Forums > All Forums in the WordPress backend.

    It should be this

    @media and (min-width: 992px) {
     .bbpress .col-md-8 {
        width: 100% !important;
     }
    
     .bbpress .col-md-4 {
        width: 0 !important;
        display: none !important;
     }
    }

    You can also try it without the media queries.

    .bbpress .col-md-8 {
        width: 100% !important;
     }
    
     .bbpress .col-md-4 {
        width: 0 !important;
        display: none !important;
     }

    No file attachments are imported.

    phpBB

    If the image was part of the original post with using the BBCode [img] then that IS imported as part of the post, if the image was an attachment to the post then it is not imported.

    There are scripts that handles importing images from other forum software to GD bbPress Attachments that you can take a look at though. This might be custom development and you may need to hire a developer to create an importer for file attachments from phpBB though.

    could also just be bbp_is_forum( ID )

    @robkk

    I haven’t found a plugin that does this. YOu may need to hire a developer to create this for you.

    Its just the WordPress toolbar moved under the header and styled differently.

    Okay I have also seen posts saying file permissions and possibly a user created issue messing with comments <!-- comment--> in php files.

    You didn’t edit the files in the bbPress right??

    Before editing the file permissions you may need to do some more troubleshooting as listed here.

    Troubleshooting

    You have the right file permissions set right??

    bbPress by default doesn’t allow users to upload images, so it must be another plugin. Since the images seem to be stored in the ckeditor plugin, you may need to contact their support.

    @robkk

    Moderator

    Not sure yet but maybe using a conditional bbp_is_single_forum('ID') with ID being the id of the forum.

    @robkk

    I think you can only assign 1 forum to each group in BuddyPress, but I am not entirely sure. You may need to contact BuddyPress’s support team to make sure.

    Where did you put the CSS?? Did you add !important to the end like this??

    width: 100% !important;

    @robkk

    Okay I found a few fixes for this possible bug, I will need to contact the devs later to see if they had seen something similar before. One is an htaccess rewrite rule and the other is really something simple.

    Okay you can try the trailing slash fix mentioned here first to see if it helps, but you are not really experiencing a 404 error because the search term you are searching is stripped for some reason.

    bbPress 2.4 // ERROR // Search stopped working…

    As a test try setting your permalinks to default and try searching again to see if it will keep your search term and search for it. The query search?action=bbp-search-request&bbp_search=adwords is usually seen in the default permalink structure instead of /search.

    Also make sure you do not have a trailing slash in any of the slugs in Settings>Forums.

    The htaccess rewrite method is adding this to your htaccess file on your site that is uaually in the WordPress directory to solve the issue, but do not try this just yet, I don’t want you messing with your htaccess file

     # BEGIN bbpress search hack
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    	RewriteEngine On
    	RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^action=(.*)&bbp_search=(.*)$
    	RewriteRule ^/soeg/(.*)$ http://antonhoelstad.dk/soeg/%2/? [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END bbpress search hack
