I think this plugin is supposed to do that, I haven’t tried it personally 😉

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-forum-redirect/

[Stephen Edgar]

If I login via http://localhost/wp-login.php I get logged in and returned to the home/front page http://localhost/

If I login via http://localhost/wp-admin the url becomes http://localhost/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

If I login via a separate WordPress installed in /pref as a sub directory of the localhost install via http://localhost/pref/wp-admin the login URL becomes http://localhost/pref/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fpref%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

Note how the sub folder on my install is also /pref and is also part of the new redirect URL, for whatever reason, most likely a .htaccess issue or some other oddity in your config is is changing the redirect to /wp39.

With multiple WordPress installs this quite easily happens and you need to make sure you are loading the correct WordPress install you are actually intending to load 😉

The latest WP and bbPress versions,yes…actually tried it again with a fresh install of WP, but same issue and with twenty fourteen and thirteen.
No bbpress login widget, just logging in with the Default WordPress admin login form to get to the dashboard. So correct on the example wp-login.php url you posted. I will use my localhost on XAMPP as an example:

http://localhost/pref/wp-login.php

If I use http://localhost/pref/wp-admin I do get logged into the dashboard. The url becomes

http://localhost/wp39/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fwp39%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

when hitting the wp-admin url method.

[Stephen Edgar]

Are you using WordPress 3.9.1 and bbPress 2.5.4?

I’m going to need some detailed steps to reproduce the issue as I cannot.

Are you logging in through the bbPress login widget?

Are you logging in via http://example.com/wp-login.php and then redirected to your front page?

What happens if you open http://example.com/wp-admin and login via that URL?
(After hitting the above URL you should now have a URL similar to:
http://example.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1)

Hi Stephen,
I have updated my site to WordPress 3.9.1 and bbPress 2.5.4.

I have the post reply button, but the reply href of reply is not related to the post ID, but it is related to new post.

In this forum instead you have https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/topic_name/?bbp_reply_to=147344&_wpnonce=fda342eb5b#new-post

Is it normal?

The link to my forum-test: http://comment-devenirriche.com/forums/
Can anyone help ?
Thank you 🙂
WordPress version: 3.9.1, bbPress version: 2.0.1, my site: http://comment-devenirriche.com/

I just installed bbPress and discovering that as the admin, if I log into my WordPress dashboard, I am redirected to the site’s front page…no dashboard. I have to add a sub page to the url in my browser to get there. If I enable the admin bar, then I can use that to get into the dashboard home page. However, if I uninstall bbPress, it goes back to normal…I login and I am on my dashboard home page.

Any ideas what is causing this?

Hello Stephen Edgar,

thanks for your reply. I did turn on WP_DEBUG, as I just got an “error” in the header part of my site. As I wanted to know what’s going on there, I activated WP_DEBUG. I guess the “error” is coming from the “warning”, not the “notices”.

I already tryed to disable all of my modules, but the error was still there. I am not sure where it is coming from exactly. I also did empty my functions.php, but nothing changed. The error also appears on other themes, not just my custom one.

I followed your links, but I think my technical understanding is not enough, to understand what the solution is. I am more of a designer than a coder.

I guess I have to reinstall wordpress completly, but I am a bit afraid, that the error will come back at some point.

The stange thing, as said, is, that the error does not appear on a mirror installation, which is exactly the same as the main one. Well, sort of. There’re even mor plugins running, for testing purposes.

Anyway – Thanks for your help so far. I will try a few other things. I also did contact our server admin, as we are running a root server. But I am not sure, that he can help me on this.

Thanks again, and have a nice sunday. 🙂

Everything is stored in the wp_posts table including WordPress posts, pages, bbPress forums, topics and replies so a rough guess here is that the 12,000 topics have been imported but not the replies.

If your comfortable using phpMyAdmin can you run this query for me on your vBulletin 3 database:

SELECT
post.postid AS postid,
thread.forumid AS forumid,
post.threadid AS threadid,
post.ipaddress AS ipaddress,
post.userid AS userid,
post.pagetext AS pagetext,
post.dateline AS dateline 
FROM post AS post 
INNER JOIN thread AS thread USING (threadid) 
WHERE post.parentid != 0

That should return the first 30 rows of your 346,000 replies, does it? Or do you get an error?

[Stephen Edgar]

If the users imported already exist then the user will be imported again with the imported_ prefix. If your uses are already in the WordPress wp_users table then you shouldn’t need to import them which would be the case for SimplePress.

[Stephen Edgar]

Don’t use WP_DEBUG i.e. define('WP_DEBUG', false); in your wp-cong.php file is the simple answer.

It will be one of your plugins ‘doing it wrong’

For more technical details on the error see any/all of this tickets 😉 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/24169
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4830
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2309

[Stephen Edgar]

Oh, my bad, the plugin description is “This is a simple plugin that adds a recaptcha validation to the bbPress 2.0 topic creation and topic reply forum.” so it is not actually a recaptcha for the login page 😉

bbpress.org is hooked into wordpress.org so spam bots are handled by the WordPress team 😉

Have another look through the WordPress plugins for one that does what you require, there are a quite a few of them.

[Stephen Edgar]

I just installed the current version 1.5.3 and have no issues

This Fatal error: Call to undefined function bbp_get_topic_post_type(), are you sure bbPress is activated?

Good evening MrRobinW and MrStephenEdgar!
Japan is currently rainy season.
I like rainy days as well as sunny days.

Well, I need your help again…(Of course my website is going well these days!)

This time, I wanna remove a <option> tag
with adding php function into “function.php” of WordPress.

At a create-topic page, users can select one specific forum.
And the souse code is like…

<label for="bbp_forum_id">in forum</label><br />
<select name="bbp_forum_id" id="bbp_forum_id" tabindex="103">
<option value="" class="level-0">select：</option>
<option class="level-0" value="1">Apple</option>
<option class="level-0" value="2">Banana</option>
<option class="level-0" value="3">Grapes</option>
<option class="level-0" value="4">Elephant</option>
</select>

In my website, these 4 forums has been set to the public,
and I don’t wanna change the setting.

However, I do not show the last one (Elephant!) to every users at the time.
In this case, what code should I put into the “function.php” of WordPress.

For me, The case is too difficult to solve.orz
Would you please advice me…

many thanks

WordPress: ver3.9.1
bbPress: ver2.5.3

Hello everyone!

First let me say, that I am not sure if the problem is coming from bbpress. Please let me know it is a general problem.

The reason I am posting the problem here is, that it appeared right after todays bbpress-update, and there’s also a reference in the message.

This is the error message I am reciving (debugging enabled):

Warning: mysql_connect(): Headers and client library minor version mismatch. Headers:50535 Library:50617 in /home/www/xxx/www/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1372

Strict Standards: Declaration of BP_Poke_Component::includes() should be compatible with BP_Component::includes($includes = Array) in /home/www/xxx/www/wp-content/plugins/bp-poke/bp-poke-component.php on line 57

The strange thing is, that I am running an exact mirror of the page and db on a subdomain, where I am testing plugins, etc. There I am not getting the error.

I did had a search on google, but couldn’t find anything helpful. As I am not a coder or server-tech myself, I am a bit lost here. I did try a few things, like disableing plugins, or enabling another theme. But nothing helped so far.

Here’s a list of plugins I am using right now:

• (BuddyDev)BP Poke
• Advanced Custom Fields
• bbPress
• bbPress New Topics
• BuddyPress
• CodeStyling Localization
• iThemes Security
• Members
• Regenerate Thumbnails
• Require Featured Image
• rtMedia for WordPress, BuddyPress and bbPress
• Tehnik BBPress Permissions
• WP Smush.it

I thought it might be a problem with iThemes Security, so I tryed to disable a few things, and also disabled the whole plugin. But the problem is still the same.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Best regards,

Lumartist

Hi,

My bbpress is working fine. I just want the recent topics to be displayed on my forum-root-page.

The site can be found here http://schole.at/intern/ (you cannot see the forum index, as the site forum is private, but the site shows the problem anyway).

I use a page with shortcodes. Using the shortcode [bbp-forum-index] just displays the forum index. But when i try to use the shortcode [bbp-topic-index] the result is as u can see in the link above: it just shows the shortcode itselve.

I would just like to have the recent topics to be diplayed as they are here in the forum root on bbpress.org/forums

Thanx for your help.

Wordpress 3.9.1
bbpress 2.5.4.
Theme: Dynamik Website Builder on Genesis Framework

[sigwinstonwolf]

Hi stephen, the version is 3.6.4

You’re right. I have checked the wordpress database, i have this tables:

wp_bbp_converter_translator
wp_commentmeta
wp_comments
wp_links
wp_options
wp_postmeta
wp_posts
wp_terms
wp_term_relationship
wp_term_taxonomy
wp_usermeta
wp_users

The “wp_posts” table contains 12.878 record, exactly as my original vbulletin forum.

But, but no other table contains 346.000 records.
Only the table “wp_postmeta” contains 127.513 record that look like this:

column meta_id: 638945
column post_id: 25653
column meta_keys: _bbp_last_active_time
column meta value: 2013-05-06 21:53:24

Nothing in the database.
thanks

Hi Stephen,

I just updated to bbPress 2.5.4 and noticed the css load issue again. I’ve created a patch and my first trac ticket here!

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2613

[Stephen Edgar]

I’d suggest using a plugin rather than reCaptcha directly

There are a few various anti-spam, anti-bot, captcha type plugins available that work with bbPress in WordPress plugin repo https://wordpress.org/plugins/

e.g. https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-recaptcha/

[Stephen Edgar]

bbPress 2.5.4 is out. It fixes 5 bugs, the last of which is a security concern for all previous bbPress 2.x installations.

The following bugs have been fixed in 2.5.4:

#2586 – Fix ‘Replies in each forum’ repair tool, to prevent breaking the reply position.
#2496 – Support slashes in slug settings, and improve sanitization of these fields.
#2518 – Improve handling of SSL assets when relying on theme compatibility.
#2588 – Fix bug when editing a reply that would pollute hierarchical replies in that topic.
#2610 – Properly handle escaping of displayed user fields and data when editing a user.

Check the milestone for a list of fixes: http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/milestone/2.5.4

[Stephen Edgar]

Can you please create a ticket in bbPress’ Trac and we can take a closer look at this.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/

If you have a link to the discussion you had with Royal Slider please also include that, thanks.

[jomynn]

I had looking for quick-start of wordpress + bbpress .

Anyone please share link for me.

Thankyou

[Stephen Edgar]

I just downloaded the Spacious theme… Oh wait… Not related. If you use WordPress 4.0.x (Any alpha or beta of the next version of WordPress) bbPress will not work, we are currently investigating this.

[boblebad]

The culprit is found 🙂

It’s PMPro search settings under Memberships/Advanced Settings that has a bug, here’s the thread where it’s explained:

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bbpress-topics-is-hidden?replies=12#post-5636096

“the bug here is probably one that we’ve discovered in our “search filter”. The quick fix is to set the search filter to “No” on the advanced settings page (which is probably what happened when you reinstalled).

You can also change the “show excerpts” setting to “Yes” and it will show your topics again.”

[jacuzzy]

Just got a solution to issue 3 (the topics/first post not showing).

Turns out s2member was the culprit. A setting in s2member > restriction options > alternative view protection, unchecking only the first check box, “Filter ALL WordPress queries; protecting all Alternate Views” seemed to do it. Now I’ll have to figure out what this implies for me in terms of protected content, but that’s an issue for s2member forums. This piece is resolved. I’ll go and make posts in the other threads where I saw this issue “unresolved” as well so more people can see it.

I’ll keep looking into the edit issues and reply if I find anything. Thanks for your help Stephen. 🙂
