Hey there everyone,

I’ve just registered to post this problem I’m currently experiencing which happens with the latest update of WordPress.

The boards all work however the threads and the post in the frontend are all gone, they’re actually still present in the backend of the wp-admin but on the actual site they can’t be seen anymore.

This only happened after the latest wordpress 4.0 update so I’m sure it has something to do with that.

Here is a link to my website: http://sg-carterpack.com/forum/

Thanks in advance for anyone who can assist me with fixing this as I sadly did not make a backup and the forum is our sites main focus so it’s really important for me to get this fixed asap!

MODERATOR EDIT: Here is a copy of your content from your other post below

I’ve already seen a couple threads but without much avail, I’m not running any plugins mentioned in that thread yet I still experience the problem after updating to WordPress 4.0

I’ve already reverted my wordpress installation as I can’t really put the forum out for more than a day, I’m running the following plugins on my site:

Adminimize
AdSense Click-Fraud Monitoring Plugin
amr shortcode any widget
BAW Login/Logout menu
bbPress
bbPress Custom CSS File
BulletProof Security
GD bbPress Tools
Google Adsense Dashboard
Google Analytics Dashboard for WP
Inactive User Deleter
Limit Login Attempts
Theme My Login
WP User Avatar

Does anyone know what plugin could be causing the problem if this isn’t a problem with BBpress?

[RafaelDeJongh]

I have a similar problem after updating to wordpress where the threads in the boards are missing.

Hi!

I have an urgent problem. After I updated WordPress to 4.0 I noticed, that all the first posts in topic disappeared, so the first “comment” that is seen after opening a topic is actually the first reply..
Did anyone notice this? Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?

Thanks!

All function names need to be unique:

See the WordPress Plugin Handbook for more details:

Sanity Practices

You can achieve this simple by prefixing the function names with your name: 🙂

function donalyza_remove_counts() {
$args['show_topic_count'] = false;
$args['show_reply_count'] = false;
$args['count_sep'] = '';
return $args;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_list_forums_parse_args', 'donalyza_remove_counts' );

Our codex articles will need to be updated to include prefixes so there are none of these conflict, suggestion might be bbp_codex_ so that way a hint is also given where the custom function may have originated from 😉

Hi !

Using the Plugin Shortcodes Ultimate I have created tabs in my WordPress Install.

Anyway I can do the same in bbPress ?

As an example please see :

Songs to Ponder Over

the starting post has tabs and was made in WordPress.

The replies are coming from the bbPress side and I’d like to make similar tabs in the same…

Shortcodes Ultimate plugin doesn’t seem to be working in bbPress.

All advise / Workabouts much appreciated. thanks !

I have bbPress installed and the register screens set up and displaying correctly. I have WP SMTP installed and pointing to my hostmonster mail server. It tests fine. When a new member registers I get a notification that a new user has registered and I know this is going through the SMTP server because of the headers in the email. The password email is not being received. I don’t believe the password is actually being sent for reasons I don’t understand. I have the latest versions of WordPress and bbPress. I think it is a bbPress problem not a SMTP problem.

I’m making a custom wordpress theme, but I want bbpress to use the twentytwelve themes.

I know how to make it use my custom theme css, but that’s not what I want, can anyone help?

[Stephen Edgar]

Indeed pingbacks and trackbacks should not be enabled, I’ve just created a ticket to have a look at this, #2677.

It was also mentioned in this thread https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/disable-pingbacks/

[Stephen Edgar]

Your theme is doing this:

Look at your CSS file, line #95

ul li:before {
  position: absolute;
  font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
  content: "\e98a1e";
  color: #f6cf08;
  font-size: 14px;
  line-height: 20px;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
}

It’s inserting content: "\e98a1e"; before every unordered list element.

You see the same issue on your about page http://bmslifttruck.com/about/

I’d suggest contacting the theme authors, about this, it has nothing to do with any encoding issues, and p.s. any encoding issues in a WordPress world you should use UTF8 😉

Hi,

I apologize. It is only now I see your response.

The forum page title was originally Forums with the slug being forums and after saving the permalinks I changed the title. In forum settings the forum root is forums.

I now think that maybe my issue is because my WordPress website and bbPress plugin are in a subdomain.

I apologize again for not seeing your response.

Thank you for your time

Hello,

I’m having a problem importing a vbulletin forum into bbpress. It keeps telling “no forums to convert”, “no comments to convert” for every item “no ….. to convert”. I didn’t create the old site I am taking this from but when I got to page source, I see vBulletin 3.8.2 so I’m guessing that’s the version it is.

Also the database doesn’t show any table prefixes, it just has “access” as the first one, “adminhelp” as the second and so on.

The site is http://troianiwebdesign.com/gulfstar – wordpress version 3.9.2 – bbpress version 2.5.4

Please help me figure out the problem so I can get this moved over!

Thank you!

[ingenuity]

Why are the replies showing above the topic and how can I get topic above replies?

It appears that the time stamp on the replies (being newer than teh topic) are showing up above the topic.

Please see test on http://changeaustin.org/forums/topic/test-topic/#post-2886

The site is using WordPress 3.9.2, bbPress 2.5.4. HeadwayThemes 3.7.8

[Minoumimi Senpai]

sorry to post this here but my i cannot create topics or anything on the site..

i have been messing with this all day and getting quite aggrevated
my members cannot edit they’re topics or replies or forums if i allowed it which i dont
And they cannot create a topic from the Dashboard menu bar at the top
so the topics they are allowed to use looks totally horrible and does not have all my wordpress options, well i think it uses the normal wordpress replies maybe i would need to change that?

If they could Edit they could use the proper Tools after but..
Unless i set Edit_others_posts there is absolutely nothing i can do to allow them to edit
it always says you do not have the proper rights
and of course i DO NOT want them to be allowed to edit other peoples posts…

How could i make it so that they can edit they’re own posts only
and that they could post a Topic Directly from the Dashboard bar at the top of page to be able to have the proper tools instead of using post topic like a reply
I did reset all users to default Role since i saw it mentioned often and it didnt help
Only if id set it to moderator they could edit theyre own posts
but they can delete everything from everyone

i am using latest WordPress and latest bbpress with twenty fourteen theme and i have no plugins that would conflict

[CSutherland88]

@netweb cool! Yeah, I wish the plugin had worked for me but I guess that’s what happens when you customize too much — stuff starts conflicting with other stuff. I wish I knew more about programming and WordPress to really get in there and do things correctly but for now, my “hit it until it works” approach seems to suffice lol.

Login widget login button size on sidebar
Wordpress: 3.9.2
bbPress: Version 2.5.4

Hello bbpress forums. I have been trying to accomplish a custom css change on my website. I installed bbpress, customized it a bit and added some forums. I added the widget on the right sidebar of my website. I then went to test it out a bit and noticed the login button being extremely tiny and hard to see.

When posting a topic of reply I also noticed the submit button was small and hard to see for some people. So I just wanted to make the login button on the sidebar widget a bit larger.

I used firebug and inspected the sidebar probably all day yesterday trying over 20 different custom css changes and had no luck. I tried things like:

============
#sidebar .button {
background-color: ##a0668d;
color: #000000;
float: center;
vertical-align: middle;
border-radius: 10px;
height: 35px;
width: 80px;
font-size: 18px;
}
================
body #sidebar .button {
padding-left: 45px;
!important;}
================
.user-submit {
padding-left: 45px;
!important;}
=================

My firebug skills are not that great but I am working on it. I tried so many other custom css changes to make this login button larger. I can go into firebug and actually change this and the button does change, I just cannot find the custom css to make this change permanent.

body #sidebar .button {
padding-left: 100px;
}

I did make the submit button for posting and replies larger, after finding this useful custom css code in the bbpress styling crib of the bbpress support site.

============================
#bbpress-forums .submit {
background-color: #a0668d;
color: #000000;
float: center;
vertical-align: middle;
border-radius: 10px;
height: 35px;
width: 80px;
font-size: 18px;
!important;}
========================

So that is good I got the submit button larger and more noticeable. If anyone is out there that would be able to assist me in just making this login button a bit larger it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for reading this

Hello guys,
I’m using the latest version of WordPress and BBpress to date.
I don’t know if this is expected default behavior but in the front page of my forum, the total topic counts only show in the categories and not next to each forum.

I would like the categories NOT to have any count, and for the counts only to show next to the forums.
Any idea of what I could do?

Thanks!

[Stephen Edgar]

This sounds like we need to fix bbPress core, feel free to create a ticket on Trac and we can take a closer look https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org

Edit: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2685

[Stephen Edgar]

Thanks for adding this to a GitHub repo, I’ll take a closer look later.

The issue with the permalinks on ru.forums.wordpress.org is indeed known, details are here:
https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/121

Most likely rather than fix this in bbPress 1.x we will look to add your plugin (if needed) when we upgrade all the international forums to bbPress 2.x.

[Stephen Edgar]

Firstly, a quick breakdown via pingdom, quite a delay in getting your JavaScript files, I’d get these into your Amazon CDN.

As you stated above “ive eliminated all the points you’ve made above, and the site only chokes when users are submitting posts in the forum, so I’m confident i’ve isolated the issue.”

• What happens when you deactivate either/or “Go to first unread” & “Unread posts” plugins you’re using and submit a reply to an affected topic?
• Another test, this time with the ‘Quotes’ plugin disabled submit a reply to an affected topic.
• Another, what code and/or plugin are you using to show the user registration in each reply e.g. Join Date: Mar 2009
• And another, what code and/or plugin are you using for the counts shown next to the username in each reply e.g Posts: 4529

Can you run the following two queries in phpMyAdmin, it will give me an idea of the state of the data in your database, it is the topic and three replies (two imported replies and one new bbPress reply) from the ~10k topic you have:

SELECT ID, post_author, post_parent, menu_order, post_type
FROM  wp_posts
WHERE  ID
IN ( 490979, 831628, 837704, 1031603 ) 

and

SELECT * 
FROM  wp_postmeta
WHERE  post_id
IN ( 490979, 831628, 837704, 1031603 ) 

Once you have the results of each (they don’t show any ‘sensitive’ data) click the “Print View” and copy and paste them to a text file, a Gist or to pastebin for me to checkout please.

Over the weekend I had to reinstall everything here locally (and my online servers for a different reason) as something was up with my database, I’ve created a topic here locally with ~10,000 replies today (similar in size to your second most popular topic) and it takes ~1.6 seconds to post a reply to this topic. To time the queries, install the following plugin and of course only have it activated whilst your debugging this stuff https://wordpress.org/plugins/query-monitor/

Hello, my website uses wordpress 3.9.2 and bbPress 2.5.4.

I searched the troubleshooting forum for someone else who has this issue, but I can’t find anything. In the posts on the forum, if a the writer tries to make a space (for example, between paragraphs) by using the ‘return’ key a space doesn’t show up when the post or comment is posted. Here’s an example http://dailyfantasywinners.com/forums/topic/is-qb-more-important-on-fanduel-than-draftkings/, I pressed return after the first paragraph but when I posted there is no space between the paragraph and the word “Thoughts?”

Any help is appreciated!

BTW, issue with cyrillic links also on ru.forums.wordpress.org. And all time then I copy link I can’t send it in twitter or with message on facebook. Ok. Some browsers encode cyrilic letters:

I’m running WP 3.9.2 and bbPress 2.5.4.
I have created several forums and populated some with Topics and Replies.
I wish to display the list of forums at wordpress/forums.

I followed the instructions in ‘Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1.
I tried Method 1 (created a page titled ‘forums’ and added it to the main menu), and Method 2 (shortcode in page)…neither worked for me. When I use the menu to go to wordpress/forums I don’t see the forums but, instead, a list of old posts.
I am using the plugin ‘bbPress Topics for Posts’ and it works…I have forums displaying as expected at the bottom of pages.

I’m stumped. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

David
