Did you run the bbPress 1.1 admin recount tools /bb-admin/tools-recount.php before importing?

You can try importing again now and if that fixed it, good, if not onto phpMyAdmin:

To check the integrity of the bbPress 1.1 database and repair/optimize any tables if needed. The instructions in following are written for WordPress but are the same for any database so follow the two steps ‘Optimization using phpMyAdmin’ and ‘How to Repair WordPress Tables’ here:

I’m not sure what is happening here but can’t seem to make a post in this support forum. Here’s my problem again:

I uninstalled bbPress from my blog but found that the additional roles (e.g. Keymaster, Spectator etc) remain. How can I get rid of these additional forum roles now that bbPress has been uninstalled? Thanks

WordPress version: 3.5, bbPress version: 2.2.3

This one maybe?

For some strange reason, the list of “topics started” in the user profile does not work in Firefox. It works in IE, Safari and Chrome.

To see the problem, try this link in the several browers.

http://willbrownsberger.com/index.php/forums/users/rich-carlson/topics

In firefox, nothing is visible below the header “Forum Topics Started”, while in the other browsers, a topic list appears as expected.

The behavior is the same for the replies list. In this example, the user has no Favorites and the statement that there are no favorites does appear. In the case of a user with favorites, nothing shows.

So, I guess there is something in the source that generates list for this page that Firefox doesn’t like.

I’m on bbPress 2.2.3 and WordPress 3.5. I have a few theme modifications to bbpress in place, but not for this template and I had noticed that the problem was occurring before I made the modifications.

Baffled. Presumably, the source served to the browsers is all the same.

Any suggestions?

I am just checking out bbPress as possibility for including on a site I am developing for a social group I belong to. Is it possible to set a forum up so that any posts are moderated and approved before they are published?

Oh you of course will need CodeColorer plugin installed …

[Hansaplastique]

Never mind; figured it out (by coincidence).

If anyone is interested, add the following code to your wordpress functions.php;

function t4a_bbp_shortcodes( $content, $reply_id ) {
	return codecolorer_highlight( $content );
}
add_filter('bbp_get_reply_content', 't4a_bbp_shortcodes', 10, 2);
add_filter('bbp_get_topic_content', 't4a_bbp_shortcodes', 10, 2);

[Hansaplastique]

I’d like to offer visitors the ability to use CodeColorer to syntax highlight their code.

I know that shortcodes are basically disabled for security reasons – which makes sense.

But how can I add a “safe” shortcode to bbpress?
The WP plugin bbPress2 Shortcode Whitelist and bbPress do shortcodes are not working (the latter even being risky at best).

bbPress: 2.2.3
WP: 3.5

I have a pre-installation question regarding the registration and login parts.

If I install the bbpress into my wordpress site – can I separate the registration and login from the actual wordpress registration and log in so the user doesn’t actually have an account on my wordpress site, but rather their account is only contained for the bbpress? I don’t have a blog or offer replies on my pages, so I have no need for people to create some user account on my site for that purpose. I do use a registration/login on my site, but that redirects users somewhere else away from my site.

So, can this be accomplished in bbpress?

Thanks in advance for your reply…

[Flyhead]

This sounds encouraging. I am running a standalone bbpress forum v1.02, so does it mean that it can simply install WordPress, then install this latest version of bbpress and I can import from there all my existing forums, user datas and threads? Would all the urls correspond with the old ones?

[A.I. Sajib]

Hi,

No, WordPress permalink isn’t affecting bbpress forum posts. It’s taking its slugs from the topic title instead of using post-id.

[Lynq]

Just to clarify, your wordpress permalinks are already set as /post-id/{id} and bbPress is not using this permalink structure? I am not sure if bbPress is setup to be able to use a different permalink structure…

[Lynq]

You might be better off asking on the wordpress forums: https://wordpress.org/support/

Hi everyone.

I’m a bit new at this, could anyone can recommend any good appointments plugin for wordpress?  I need it for my Hair salon to get my bookings taken online. I saw one that is called wp-obs (I think), looks pretty advanced. Did anyone have any experience with it? Or tested it? Any feedback  will be appreciated.

bbPress uses WordPress’ database to store its data. Specifically, the wp-posts table.

[midnighz]

Thanks for reply @Johnjamesjacoby

So, now I should try to query it from database.
I’ve found this post, https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/display-a-list-of-recent-topics/

Can I ask you a simple dump question? (because I’m really newbie here and I want to finish my work as soon as posible 🙁 )
Where is bbPress database located? Or how can I access to modify it?

I’ve look around in my phpMyadmin but it has only WordPress database.

Thank you again for help. 🙂

thanks :))

Scenario:
When I upgraded Buddypress and BBpress recently (two weeks ago), members can’t access the site-wide forums properly anymore.
1. Regular members can’t view the first entries in single topic pages anymore.
2. They don’t have access to the hidden forums they could access before.

All in all, only admins can see anything.

While trouble shooting, the ‘missing’ posts and forums show up when I have BuddyPress disabled. Could this be a user privilege conflict? I’ve reset my User Role Editor and deactivated the plugin but it didn’t solve anything. What I’m scared I have probably destroyed the capabilities settings completely. Is there a way to fix this without having to start from scratch? I’m more concerned about the content we’ve built up in more than a year.

Buddypress 1.6.2
BBPress 2.2.3
Wordpress 3.5

[lesliemb]

Argh. Now the opposite is true–http://museumnation.com/register/ doesn’t work, and the other does. The change happened when I removed “www” from the WP and site URLs in Settings –> General, as described here: http://ma.tt/2006/06/wordpress-no-www/

Any ideas?

[Pippin Williamson]

That’s caused by a conflict with your theme, most likely because the theme is doing bad things to the WordPress queries (to pull in the topics / replies).

What theme is it?

[lesliemb]

OK. . . The plot thickens. I just checked, and the register link is working at http://museumnation.com/register/ — but not when the URL has a www in front of it. http://www.museumnation.com/register/ redirects to the home page. I haven’t seen this problem on my other WordPress sites–the URL with or without WWW sends users to the same place.

So. . . Is there some kind of setting I should be looking for at my webhost to fix this WWW/no WWW issue?

Thanks again.
