I’m guessing the sync-all-reply-positions fails because of some incorrect meta for the replies, theres also a few known issues with this tool timing out when used on sites with lots of replies.
The user-role-map repair tool should work fine, no known issues with this one.
What happens if you create a new user, just a new WordPress user, can that user login, create topics and replies etc? What happens if you now remove all the imported users and run this repair tool again, theoretically it would only be running on “native” WordPress users and not any imported users, (i.e. “admin” and “test user” only), does the repair tool still fail?
@eoppegaard The database actually needs to be active in the same MySQL server your WordPress site is running on, not the same database, just available as a database in the MySQL server. Uploading the MySQL .sql dump file or phpBB files to yor site will have no effect and will not work.
Some of the docs here might also help you out.
@evildrome It might be easy for you, it’s not for me, if it was I’d have done it, if you’d be able to help out and help with some code for a solution to that that would be awesome.
Any chance you could talk to your webhost and have the MySQL version updated?
WordPress’ minimum requirements per https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/ are WordPress also works with PHP 5.2.4+ and MySQL 5.0+ which you are using but I suspect the phpMyAdmin warning Your PHP MySQL library version 5.1.49 differs from your MySQL server version 5.0.51a. you see are probably related to this issue.
If your vBulletin database uses utf8_mb4 but your WordPress install is only using utf8 then you’ll run into issues. As Pascal pointed out with that link, you are using MySQL v5.0.x which doesn’t support utf8_mb4, only MySQL v5.5.3 and above does.
If the vBulletin database used utf8 rather than utf8mb4 then I’d expect the import to work just fine, but because of the different character sets and collation differences the only way around this I see is to resolve this by upgrading to at least MySQL v5.5.3.
For sure this would be related to the character set used.
Have you installed WordPress using the Greek language pack?
Any chance you could install WordPress using the same character set as the character set used by your Greek vBulletin install and try importing? Or maybe converting your vBulletin database to use a utf8 database?
New WordPress installs use the character set utf8_general_ci, previously WordPress would use utf8, the Greek locale your vBulletin install is using
Ok @tech55541 I’ve just added a short code option! See if you can get it to work!

Hello, how do you edit/create fourm roles.
I am not that good with coding so if it involves it please make it clear!
My website it: http://www.monsterbrand.co.uk
I am on the newest wordpress version
and I am using the Tesseract theme
Hello!
I am planing to install bbPress on my site running the latest version of WordPress.
However I have a rather “strange” requirement.
On the site we have a private part where the users logs in with username and password.
The problem is that all users use the same username. We have tried to give each member an individual username but without any success. They will not remember their username or password. The information on the protected part is not personalized so it is not accturally a problem that they use the same username.
My problem is that when they then post to bbPress all users will post as this generic user. Is it possible to force the anonymous posting layout even for logged in users? This will force them to enter their name and emailadress and we can figure out who has posted what.

I use Avada fusion as theme i think. I have looked for avada footer fusion footer and footer of any kind, but noting 🙁 🙁
I do suck at this with wordpress and editing.
Oh thanks for answering.
Hmm i don’t have a footer.php file haha?
Or am i looking at the wrong place perhaps..?
What do i do then?
My knowledge of wordpress and html is so crappy and my english is also crappy, please describe in much details haha.
Thanks 🙂

You do not have to create a child theme just for custom code snippets, you can also use a custom plugin, this plugin below will give you an area to add custom php code snippets.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/functionality/
I still rather suggest you just stick with an inline image upload plugin instead of gd bbPress attachments(unless you are using pro), instead of removing the error notice and allowing empty replies.
BINGO! So my local SVN repository didn’t have the files added to its database, even though I could see the files in the folder on the Mac.
Now enjoy the images and such:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/tk-bbpress-stats/
Something wrong on the client side then… Copy all your files, delete the local folder (so also the hidden files) and do a new, empty checkout from wordpress.org
Then add your files again to the local folder and commit them.
Hi Pascal,
Thanks, updating the wordpress profile is not a problem I can do that.
However using the code from bbPress profile such as:
<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_before_user_profile' ); ?>
<div id="bbp-user-profile" class="bbp-user-profile">
<h1>View Users Trading Profile Here <?php get_the_author_id(); ?></h1>
<h2 class="entry-title"><?php _e( 'Profile', 'bbpress' ); ?></h2>
<div class="bbp-user-section">
<?php if ( bbp_get_displayed_user_field( 'description' ) ) : ?>
<p class="bbp-user-description"><?php bbp_displayed_user_field( 'description' ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
<p class="bbp-user-forum-role"><?php printf( __( 'Role: %s', 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_user_display_role() ); ?></p>
<p class="bbp-user-topic-count"><?php printf( __( 'Topics Started: %s', 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_user_topic_count_raw() ); ?></p>
<p class="bbp-user-reply-count"><?php printf( __( 'Replies Created: %s', 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_user_reply_count_raw() ); ?></p>
</div>
</div><!-- #bbp-author-topics-started -->
<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_after_user_profile' ); ?>
added to my author.php doesn’t work.
I presume its because its not tied to the bbPress ‘user’ profile?
I’m afraid I won’t be able to help with that because you try to change the WordPress profile, and my knowledge is limited to bbPress profiles…
screenshots go under /assets (top level folder), no longer under the trunk or tags like before. Check out a working structure like https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/bbp-toolkit/
A lot of mistakes there…
– Rename README.txt to readme.txt
– You have stable tag:4.2.2, but that should be 1.0.1 (the version of your plugin)
– trunk is your dev environment, not prod !
– You don’t have your structure under tags (should have folders like 1.0.0 and 1.0.1)
– there are still no screenshots under ‘assets’
But this is standard wordpress, so please re-read 16. WordPress.org on https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/
Pascal.
sorry my last post in response to the previous one.
so I have my screenshots in /trunk and have given up on /assets.
Yes you can commit to a tag directory – tortoise svn puts up a warning (don’t know what other svn’s do) , and you don’t want to do that for anything that changes functionality, as otherwise some people have it and some don’t, but I do for readme.txt and no reason why you shouldn’t add a screenshot to a tag rather than release an update.
Wordpress actually recommends committing to a tag for a readme.txt when wordpress goeds up a version to say your compatible with it.
Hey guys.
I’ve tried searching about this but not really been able to find a definitive answer, especially for my own situation.
I currently have a live site, where users NEED to use WordPress default domain.com/author/username
Currently when you go to the profile of a poster in the bbPress forum it takes you to a different user page domain.com/user/username
I need this to direct to domain.com/author/username as the default WordPress profile contains information about the user (feedback ratings, post details + more – its a classified site).
Now I’m not 100% fussed on whether the domain.com/author/username page displays post details, as the ‘forum’ I’ve having is a single forum and more like a general chat area of the site. I’m not looking to setup a fully fledged forum.
However the most important thing is having their profiles direct to their author page instead of their bbPress user page.
If there is code I can place in the author.php file (WordPress one) that will check their bbPress details regarding their posts, that would be great. I’ve tried copying the code from bbPress user-profile.php but that didn’t work.
Can any one offer any assistance? I’d deeply appreciate it.
Thanks
bbPress: Version 2.5.8
WordPress: Version 4.4.2
Website: http://www.airsofttrader.co.nz (You can see the example of author pages, however bbPress is not installed on the live site – its installed locally.)
Hello interwebs, I just made my wordpress site. I’m looking to add a forum on the site, but I’m not pleased with the theme that I got, so I’m looking to change it. I would like to make a forum attached to my site that looks like this. http://forums.a10talk.com/
ps I’m not very tech savy so if I left anything out let me know
Thanks
It’s not on the wordpress.org server for sure. You did not commit (or not correctly).
Sup guys,
im currently working on a WordPress based Gaming-Theme and want to change a few of BBpress Templates.
Unfortunatly bbpress dont like the take the changes and always falls back to the default ones.
My Theme folder looks like this:
%mythemename%/bbpress/%template_files_here%
but everything i change here wont update…
So, im a doing something wrong with the bbpress folder there or is it just my dumbness ?
@luckyluuk
I did get a blocked message at first from a user agent blocker on gronboekoby site, now it leads to the default WordPress login.
