I deleted bbpress via ftp, and re-installed it. It still wasn’t working, so I deleted bbpress, and I was able to log into WordPress. I found that 4 plugins, and one theme needed to be updated. So I updated everything, and re-installed bbpress. No more errors!

Although I can’t login via WordPress, I can FTP, but I’m not sure what to change.

Please tell me how to change php files.

(Or please summarize below.)

Is it possible to remove topic-author, but keep reply-authors

[scotth454]

I am getting mine started up an have spent most of my saturday with the same problem. action-modeler.com

<li id="menu-item-1016" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type_archive menu-item-object-forum menu-item-1016"><a>All Forums<span class="menu-tag">bbPress Forums</span></a></li>

Adding a second all forums menu doesn’t have the extra “bbPress Forums”.

Well I figured out setting it as a page to get the all forums. Apparently using the all forums from the “Forums” in menu manager is bugged.

[Stephen Edgar]

@ johnskennedy You’re spot on, creating 8 functions is one way to do that, you’d need to make sure that each function name is unique.

That said, the above is one way, another way is to use some conditional logic with some if/else statements which is a little trickier, possibly more fun though to update the function in this way even 😉

See these codex docs for sme very initial hints:
• https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags
• https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-conditional-tags/

Am using:

Twentythirteen wordpress theme

bbPress – Version 2.5.12

With bbPress I have created a number of forums

But – when I put the following short code into a page:
[bbp-forum-index]

it shows nothing …

Please – what am I doing wrong?

Dear Friends,

I’m using WP 4.7 and bbPress 2.5.12. I’m using the importer under Tools->Forums->Import forums to import a MyBB Forum (version 1.6), with 4000 topics, 50.000 messages, and 3000 users.

The performance is Ok, it takes two hours more or less. The problem, is that at certain point, the message Conversion complete is displayed, and certainly, the users / topics count is the right one. And then, without my interaction, it starts again.

I’m not sure if this “second pass” is the normal procedure, or it is an error.

Any help would be very appreciate.

That’s the output of my last attempt

Hi Robin! Thanks so much for your reply. I’ll do my best to answer your questions.

1 – Yes, I’m using the account I used to create the site and the forum, and I’ve double checked to make sure it has Admin and KeyMaster rights.

2 – GoDaddy is hosting my site. I’m vaguely familiar with phpmyadmin, but I just logged in to my GoDaddy account and didn’t see an obvious way to access the database for editing. I don’t see anything in the WP dashboard either. I’m guessing I’m missing something obvious. Everything else in WP is pretty straight forward.

3 – WordPress 4.6.1 and bbPress 2.5.10.

4 – Yes, I can see topics and replies in the Dashboard. I’m able to Edit, Trash or mark them as Spam from the Dashboard. I used to be able to do that with links above each post in the forum, but those links no longer appear.

Hope that helps you help me. Thanks again!

[reedy]

I am having a number of issues with slow posting times. Posts are taking up to 30 seconds to submit in many cases.

I spoke to my webhost who offered the following details:

We have reviewed your case in details. As you probably know the BBPress plugin saves each forum new topic or post to a topic as a new post in the WordPress database. Due to this reason your WordPress’ posts database table and its meta data is getting quite big.

I believe that the main reason for your slow performance is the size of the _posts and _postmeta database tables.

Decreasing their size will speed your website up.

I did actually try the fix suggested at the end of this forum topic by editing the functions.php file.

This way I have managed to post a test topic for about 12 seconds instead of the previous 30-35 seconds time frame.

My forum contains 500,000+ posts, so I accept that the database will be getting large. Is there nothing that can be done to improve the awful performance I am seeing until the much rumored bbPress 2.6 is released?

[Robin W]

bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

[debodeq]

New. Installed the wordpress theme, installed the plugins but it just never worked.

[Robin W]

Try

http://jobs.wordpress.net/

or contact me via my website

http://www.rewweb.co.uk

[Robin W]

add my plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

and go to

Wordpress 4.7

Hi, I want to create different sections in my forum like on this picture

I’ve tried to make categories and then add forums to it but always the result is not like I want… Do anybody know how to do that?
It is probably very easy;)

[stagezero]

@robin-w
by the way its the bbpress style pack plugin Thanks Rob!
version 3.4

[Robin W]

bit more digging

it would appear that wordpress 4.7 takes out the filter capability

https://github.com/WP-API/WP-API/issues/2964

there is plugin that puts it back

https://github.com/WP-API/rest-filter

Otherwise I think they now want you to filter at the client end.

so http://MY_SITE.COM/wp-json/wp/v2/posts gives you all the posts, and then you pick those that are the right post type.

If you try the plugin above, then I think

http://MY_SITE.COM/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?filter[type]=topic

does it

Please do report progress back !!

[Robin W]

The below is offered as potential help, and in an effort to help, so if it is rubbish, then please come back, and I will try to help further.

bbpress uses the standard wordpress posts, but with post types of ‘forum’, ‘topic’ and ‘reply’ instead of ‘post’ and ‘page’, and bbpress code itself basically uses wp_query to access the database.

The glossary for wordpress api says

GET /wp-json/wp/v2/posts to get a collection of Posts. This is roughly equivalent to using WP_Query.

so I’d imagine that you would just use the same sort of call, and use wp_query parameters to return what you wanted.

So if for wordpress you had a command that gave you say the latest 5 posts, then this same command would work but just changing whatever that code has for post_type=’post’ to post_type=’topic’

If you wanted topics from a particular forum, you would add the equivalent of post_parent = ID where ID was the forum ID

In essence if you can tell me what you want, I can give you the wp_query, and you could hopefully translate this into json.

Does any of that make sense? 🙂

Hi,
WP 4.7, latest BBpress. I have a multisite: swissinformatic.org, magazine.swissinformatics.org, [other stuff]swissinformatics.org. My mail server is @swissinformatics.org and the plugin picks up $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] to create the no reply address.
COULD YOU HELP US with a setting box to supersede this value?
Meanwhile I replaced it with my site name in the functions.php code, but mind the next plugin update!
$sitename = strtolower( ‘swissinformatics.org );
Always beware of “Educated guess’ I’m not going to buy a mail server for each subdomain and with the present security of providers,…
I also created a no reply alias of my administrative e-mail address.
Everything is fine now

No it doesn’t support bbpress

Hi guys, I will just say first that I do not know much about coding.

I just installed bbpress and now i have this error come up in my wordpress dashboard

Warning: preg_match(): Unknown modifier ‘0’ in /home2/eli/public_html/juniortactician.com/wp-includes/class-wp.php on line 231

Warning: preg_match(): Unknown modifier ‘0’ in /home2/eli/public_html/juniortactician.com/wp-includes/class-wp.php on line 232

the code on those lines are as follows:

if ( preg_match(“#^$match#”, $request_match, $matches) ||
preg_match(“#^$match#”, urldecode($request_match), $matches) ) {

what does this mean and how can I get rid of it?

Thanks in advance.

[Robin W]

the topic index shortcode in my style pack plugin might be what you need

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes to see what is available and how it works
