Latest WordPress and bbPress version. Any idea guys?
Hi Back9hours,
I use this: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbpress-new-topics
with a little modifications found at the support forum, which seems to work fine.
I can give you my modificated file?
Hi and sorry for my bad English.
About this plugin, I opened a topic because for a week now does not work correctly.
Anyone have other solutions?
When users try to reply on a thread on their mobile it very often happens that they just bumps to first post in thread without submit the post. I have experienced this myself. I then go back, and send again. Sometimes it takes 2,3 or 4 times before posting is successful.
I use wordpress 4.5.3
bbpress 2.5.9
Is there any tip on how to find the error?
I use this theme on mobile:
GM Neo (Graphene)
This app to mobile switch:
Any Mobile Theme Switcher
I also have the following plugins for my bbpress:
GD bbPress Tools
bbPress Go To First Unread Post
bbPress Unread Posts v2
Hello everyone, I recently installed bbpress to my wordpress website and noticed that the forum search bar was not working at all. For example, if I search for a topic, only my blog posts show up and not any topics. I’m pretty sure that this is due to a problem with my theme because if I switch back to twenty sixteen, then the search bar works again. However, I don’t want to switch back to twenty sixteen for certain reasons. Does anyone know how to fix this issue then with the theme?
I’m using wordpress version 4.5.3, bbpress version 2.5.9, and my website is http://www.purposeshare.com/forums
Thanks,
David
It’s been a while since I tried it, I’ll have to re-attempt it in a couple of days when I have an opportunity to try it again.
Cool
As I recall, it imported the users fine, and then it looked like it was doing the posts, but after, I want to say about 150 posts, it froze there, never indicated further imports. When I checked the database tables, it didn’t appear that it actually brought the content from Dizkus over to bbPress at all.
Ok, so it did something, thats a good sign in that the database name and password were correct.
If you’ve ever used Chrome/Firefox “inspect” debugger, you can right click and select “inspect” or (view the source code of the web page) and there is some extra debugging MySQL statements you will see there, if when testing you have issues take a look at the last query and include that MySQL code here when posting back, it will help determine what went wrong.
As to the localhost problem, I mirrored the Zikula site to my local WIn 10 machine, and then tried to import on a local WP/bbP site and it didn’t do anything. Seems like it just couldn’t find data.
If it can’t find any data it should thrown an error message to that affect, if you don’t select Dizkus from the dropdown menu on the importer screen and use the default AEF that can be one of the causes, another is that the database is not in the same database server as your WordPress install.
Did you import that database to your Win 10 machine or were you trying to connect to it remotely?
Is it possible to replace WordPress posts with forum topics to keep discussions at one place?
Hello,
I want migrate my Joomla website to WordPress.
I have 23.000 members and more 100.000 messages.
It’s good for :
– Members

– Topics
But when he must migrate responses, i have an error message :
“jos_kunena_topics not exists” -> It’s true … the table name is “jo_” not “jos_” … i don’t know why he adds a “s” …
I use Kunena 3 and latest version of BBpress
Someone can help me ?
Thanks and sorry for my english.
I’ve already searched both the parent theme and the child theme for the string “bbp”, but can not find it there.
The previous developer did some rather unorthodox coding, so anything is possible.
They might have even edited core WordPress files.
Is there any other way of testing where a bbPress-dependent function might be running?
Wordpress 4.5.3
BBPress 2.5.9
See the issue at http://solosection.com/forums/topic/asdf/
I have an issue and I am pretty sure it is in BB Press. I deactivated all BB Press and user plugins and it still happens.
I have the option “Embed media (YouTube, Twitter, Flickr, etc…) directly into topics and replies” turned on and have it configured for Instagram. In Instagram, users tag other users in comments, in this case, @Solo_Section. Somehow the text in the embedded Instagram post is being transformed to a link to the user profile within BB Press and breaks the embedding.
I don’t see any options anywhere to configure this. Anyone know where this functionality lives?
I have inherited a busy site at http://fresh.co.nz with WordPress Version 4.5.3
It is running bbPress Version 2.5.9 – but not in use.
When I attempt to de-activate, delete or re-name bbPress, the site becomes blank.
I cannot find anything in the theme that relies on bbPress, but I have not had the opportunity to try changing the theme since the site is live.
T can’t see anything in wp-config, .htaccess or any custom index.php files
Any suggestions about where else the problem may be would be appreciated.
Hello Dan,
I ended up using the asyncronous-bbpress-subscriptions https://wordpress.org/plugins/asyncronous-bbpress-subscriptions/ plugin
ok
On issue 1
The code goes on then functions file of your child theme
https://codex.bbpress.org/functions-files-and-child-themes-explained/
on issue 2, pending 2.6 coming out containing a fix (neither currently has any timescales)
the you can achieve this with my private groups plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
see the help page for how to set up
To answer your 2nd question: “Also, is there a way to assign specific moderators to specific boards. Say a user is a moderator, but I don’t want them to moderate all boards, just specific boards. Is that possible?”
– They have a 9 year old ticket open to add this feature to bbPress.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/459
Looks like it is almost complete. The current plan is release with version 2.6 (current version is 2.59). With such an old ticket, history suggests is could get pushed back to later versions though.
I’m using the 2.5.9 version of bbPress plugin in the latest version of WordPress and would like to remove this tab, but I can not. Can someone help me?
Here’s a print for better understanding: http://www.siteconcursos.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Capturar.jpg
Thank you – That looks like exactly what I need. I have other pages that need to be blocked if a user is not logged in but if I understand it correctly I can use WordPress to do that without a plug in.
Thanks a million.

The issue also does happen in TwentyFifteen.
The issue is because in the bbPress default theme package, there is a template called content-search.php. In some newer themes there is also a template of the same name. And since the bbPress templates don’t necessarily need to be in a bbPress folder, the bbPress plugin is choosing the template from your theme before the template that is actually in bbPress.
Copy content-search.php from the bbPress plugin templates and place it in a child theme in a folder called bbpress. This fixed the issue you are getting in a free version of your currently active theme.
https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/
Also just created a trac ticket for this issue.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2966
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
Thanks for the reply Robkk. I ended up going with a plugin called Buddypress Sitewide Activity Widget. It seemed to do the trick.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-sitewide-activity-widget/
And the WordPress/BBPress combo is actually quite easy to play with, took me a while (2 years almost) to understand the code but now like a puzzle that is relatively easy to manipulate.
Only big issue I always find is the massive amounts of javascript and css queries, trying soon to combine a bit more.
So when I go to my members page all that I am seeing is my friends not the 7 people that have created an account. So that I can send them friend request.
Thank You Brian
