Thanks for the suggestion. I decided to install a separate version of WP and install forums in there – my original WordPress database got huge with bbPress.

I then imported phhBB into this site. Next I will connect this site to aMember, although I’m not sure how that will go. Wish me luck!

its old but there is this

I appreciate that, but I don’t have FTP access. Someone asked me to put a forum on their site. It’s not my site and they don’t particularly want me messing anything up that currently works. They wanted to stick with WordPress, so bbpress made sense, but it isn’t working.

Hi –

I just installed my first attempt at bbpress and nothing is showing up in the dashboard menu. There is no forum option, no tools and no options under settings. My site role is listed as “Administrator”, secondary and forum roles as “Keymaster”.

It will be complicated to disable all of the plugins or install TwentyThirteen. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what the problem might be? WordPress 4.1.1 & bbpress 2.5.6, running Bolid Theme (Is that known to have a conflict). Thanks in advance.

[Robin W]

put this in your functions file

add_filter('protected_title_format', 'ntwb_remove_protected_title');
function ntwb_remove_protected_title($title) {
	return '%s';
}
 
add_filter('private_title_format', 'ntwb_remove_private_title');
function ntwb_remove_private_title($title) {
	return '%s';
}

or use

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

which has a setting for this

I’m using WordPress 4.1.1 on twentyfifteen them, and bbpress 2.5.6

I’ve created a test forum called ‘A completely spurious forum’ which is set to ‘private’. But when I go there as a logged in user, the heading of the forum is ‘Private: Private: A completely spurious forum’. Where did the two ‘privates’ come from and how do I get rid of them?

I’m running a copy of the website on my laptop (Mac OS X Yosemite, Apache, PHP, MySQL) without a persistent caching plugin. I don’t think logged in users have anything to do with this problem, because we’re talking about the WordPress/bbPress internal caching functions (WP Object Cache).

I’ve also slightly modified the bbp_forum_query_last_reply_id function to accept the value of 0 and run the query and then the wp_cache_get returns the correct value, but after reverting the changes wp_cache_get again returns 0. Do I need to clear the object cache (which is stored somewhere in the options table according to the WP Object Cache docs)?

@t3_rrY — I think you’d use the mandrill_payload filter as explained here: http://blog.mandrill.com/own-your-wordpress-email-with-mandrill.html

You could add it into @korobochkin’s code. I haven’t tried it – I’m not sure how the template is handled (I don’t use them) but that’s where I start. You can also simply add html to the message in the functions above, although for anything the least bit complicated design-wise, a template would be the way to go.

I’ve just started using Mandrill; it’s great, isn’t it?

without buddypress, then

[Hephaestus_Xii]

Grrrrr jetpack wordpress.com stats screwed it up

[Robkk]

if you want use this plugin and provide use some information on how it does for your installation.

it requires Akismet, and basically it rescans all your topics and replies for spam.

the settings should be in tools > bbpress spam cleaner.

https://github.com/lenrsmith/bbpress-spam-cleaner

another tool that might help is wanguard.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wangguard/

[Robkk]

I dont know what to tell you??

do you want to still use the aMember plugin with bbPress and WordPress??

or you want to leave aMember??

All i can recommend now is put all your data back in aMember and just import phpbb cleanly into bbPress.

[Robkk]

There is not a finished PHPfusion importer from what i can see.

You might need to hire a developer to finish the existing PHP-Fusion importer for bbPress.

post a job here http://jobs.wordpress.net/

All else you can contact @netweb but im sure he will be very busy.

contact him on slack

Development

[Robkk]

You can wait til the patch is added to core in a future release.

or you can hotfix the issue with the patch here

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2690

[Robkk]

this is pretty much it , no styles though.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-info-widgets/screenshots/

[Robkk]

if your talking about the category layout that default phpbb usually has.

Then use this file

https://github.com/robkk/bbPress-Hierarchical-Forum-and-Category-Layout

download the zip.

take the loop-forums.php file and put it into your child theme in a folder called bbpress

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

also has a file like this but i think you have to manually install this too.

Greetings,

I have tons of spam users registered on my forum that never posted anything (I guess that most didn’t even got the password that is sent by mail).

I would like to cleanup my messy list of users, but without risking loosing additional information.

I’ve found this post http://www.blogercise.com/delete-spam-users-from-bbpress-2/

DELETE *
FROM wp_users
WHERE ID NOT IN
(SELECT post_author FROM wp_posts
UNION SELECT user_id FROM wp_comments)

and metadata:

DELETE A FROM wp_usermeta A
LEFT JOIN wp_users ON user_id=ID
WHERE ID is NULL

Just wondering if this select is safe enough to cleanup all users who never started or replied a topic.
Any chances on deleting an active user?

btw:
Running wordpress 4 and bbpress 2.5.6 (this forum was imported from bbpress standalone, I guess that it was version 1.4)

Thanks

[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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

Just an update on this…

In an attempt to solve the situation, I took my site offline and changed the prefix of kunena_topics to jos_ and figured that might be a work around. As it happened, instead I just got the error stating WordPress database error: [Table ‘******.j25_kunena_topics’ doesn’t exist]

So when I run it normally to use the j25_ prefix, it fails and looks for jos_, and when I change the table to jos_, it then fails and asks for j25_

[Shaktimaan]

My issue is very similar to

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/each-editing-session-of-a-post-is-published-in-activity-stream/
buddypress.org/support/topic/bbpress-post-edit-causes-multiple-activity-entries/
buddypress.org/support/topic/editing-a-topic-duplicate-record-in-activity-stream/

Wordpress version: 4.1.1
Buddypress: Version 2.2.1
bbPress: Version 2.5.6
website: thinkatheist.org

I am using a premium wordpress theme, Buddy

Any solution?

[xxmesoxx]

I am trying to move my Joomla install over to WP, and am having some troubles with the Kunena importer to BBPress.

When I attempt to do the import, it successfully moves over some of the information, but stops every time when it tries to import the topics. It gives me the error:

WordPress database error: [Table ‘******.jos_kunena_topics’ doesn’t exist]

The problem is that I don’t use the jos_ prefix anywhere in my tables, and it seems to be automatically inserting that prefix into the table when trying to import. I imagine the table it’s looking for is not actually jos_kunena_topics, but rather just kunena_topics.

I am using Joomla 2.0.19 with Kunena 3.0.5, attempting to move over to the latest versions of both bbpress and WP.

Any help will be appreciated.
