Yes it’s the same issue. I didn’t understand the reference you made to the plug-in author, sorry. Not being conversant with the conventions I assumed you were still talking about the bbpress author. I’m sure I could have been more switched on but perhaps replies to in this forum could make less of an assumption about the degree of tech literacy us ordinary users have?
I’m now completely at a loss as to what the link:-
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2593
… should convey to me?
Hi there! I am using bbpress v 2.5.3 and wordpress v 3.9.1.
I would like to use an email for notifications from the forum, that is different then the one I’ve setup in wordpress settings. Is this possible? Its just different people in our organization will deal with the forum, and others with support on the contact page.
Any help would greatly be appreciated!!!

The WordPress WXR Export/Import does include all the post meta, it includes everything that bbPress needs except for some idiosyncrasies for users such as bbPress roles and passwords as I outlined in the ticket.
Thank you! That was an unbelievably frustrating experience and I wasn’t expecting it so I sort of freaked out 😉 in the end I think the problem is how much the forum relies on the post meta take in the database. Exporting through WordPress does not copy these values so while my data was there nothing was linking up. I ended up manually copying the database rows and changing the ID numbers where needed. Hopefully a better export/import system will make it easier the next time I need to do this. Thanks for your consideration!
Per my reply here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/migrating-from-one-bbpress-installation-to-another/#post-147085
I have just created a ticket on Trac to add a bbPress 2.x to bbPress 2.x importer.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2605
I have no idea why I had never thought of, or had mentioned or requested previously to include this. It should be pretty quick and easy to do also.

I created a second wordpress site on my multi-site install of WordPress. All I want to do is copy everything, exactly as it is, from one site to the next. I’ve tried about 5 times now to do this and everytime something goes horribly wrong. I tried importing everything and then using the forum tools to reset the count thinking that would work, but all it did was remove every post from being assigned.
Depending on how I’ve tried to import them, sometimes forums are not linked to the appropriate category, but every time only a small percentage of topics & replies are appropriately linked. Why does this happen?! Why is it so difficult tomove bbPress from one site to another? Does anyone have a way that would work better than using the WordPress Import/Export feature?
I just installed bbpress, and for some reason, my submit and reply buttons do not work. I activate the two thousand twelve theme, and they work… but not with the theme my entire site is based around, which right now is REPlay (http://themeforest.net/item/replay-responsive-music-wordpress-theme/3172436?WT.ac=portfolio_item&WT.z_author=themex)
The button is there… it just doesn’t do anything when you click it. Anyone here know what I can do to troubleshoot this?
Thank you very much!
Gotcha, glad we’re on the same page now. 🙂
What happens when I rename the form-user-edit.php to settings.php and drop it in the right directory is that I get the right markup, but the forms don’t work when submitted. They also don’t display any pre-submitted values like they would if they did work.
In fact, they don’t work anywhere except at their original location at example.com/forums/profile/%username%/edit so it doesn’t really matter whether I’m trying to make them work in BuddyPress or any other page.
I’m sure it’s just a matter of understanding how WordPress or specifically BuddyPress implement PHP forms and the rest should be a cakewalk.
Just wanted to confirm that this worked for me, I had found an older solution that also was meant to be applied to the theme’s functions.php file that, in-turn, broke some things in buddyPress – namely, was presenting the profile name as an HTML-a-href link presented as text – using this code, which is presented as an example in the WordPress Codex worked without any further breakings (that I am currently aware of). Thank you, Stephen
ok, you could just call each by their url
or if you know the username you could call the form from within a page using the ‘insert php’ plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/insert-php/
then
[insert_php]
$user_id = whatever you used to get the user-id
$filelocation=”wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-user-edit.php”;
include($_server[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’].$filelocation);
[/insert_php]
There should be no reason they won’t integrate.
However the first thing you should do is create a test site see
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
The you can do everything without any pain !
From what you describe, if you really want to go to a separate route, then the simplest route is for you to have two domains the primary and a subdomain. On the subdomain you would install wordpress, and the same theme as your main site and then add bbpress, put the files in there. As you then say, you’d just call this subdomain from your main site.
Hello from Japan!
bbpress is great!
Well, I’m in trouble.
so I would appreciate if you help me.
1.
By default, an anchor tag is given to texts of “freshness“. like…
<a>2hours, 1minute ago</a>
To remove the anchor tag from freshness texts, which files should I modify ?
Could you please tell me a path to get to the file?
2.
By default, a comma is used in display of “freshness”. like..
2hours,(←here!) 1minute ago
I want to also remove the comma.
In this case, a file to be modified will be the same as the file described above?
Thanks for reading,
and I’m looking forward to your reply…
WordPress: ver3.9.1
bbPress: ver2.5.3
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
would get you further than the members plugin
With this you could have
5 forums fully visible and useable
by not setting any restriction on them
1 forum set to restrict to say group 1 called ‘members’
and
all ‘members’ participant users of group 1 ‘members’
all other users are just participants with no group set.
Then set forum visibility
All forum users would see that all 6 forums exist. They would also see all the topic listings, but if they clicked a topic, they would get a message (which you define, maybe sending them to say a sign up page).
so it would make the forums and headings of topics visible, but not the content of topics.
Best I can do without coding !
Ok finally fixed it, and it’s working with the plugin.
I just added these lines for functions.php
See the code here:

@askcdy This has nothing to do with bbPress, please post on the WordPress support forums.
Support Forums
can you tell me how to active activate jbimages plugin in TinyMCE with wordpress
You are correct in bbPress does not support this at this stage, BuddyPress Group Forums can only have a single bbPress forum.
That said, we are working towards adding this, there are more details here.
Hi,
i have the challenge to show the latest topics for the role members in the topic index view. I’m new to bbpress so i’ve to learn a lot.
I’m using buddypress with sidewide and group forums. Each group has one forum.
When I’m using a site and shortcode [bbp-topic-index] only all topics from the sidewide forums are shown. What I’ve learned is that this is a default behavior – i hope i’m not wrong 🙂
Now I want to show all latest topics / posts for all members belonging to their group / group forum – optimal on the latest topic page. The users are members (bbpress) and abonnents (WordPress).
How do i accomplish that ?
The site is hosted locally so I can’t give you an actual live URL if that’s what you mean?
The page is a ‘customized’ version of the BuddyPress Settings page located at DOMAIN/members/USER/settings/.
Just think of it as a blank WordPress page with that URL.
By “the content” I mean the <form id="bbp-your-profile> element, and everything within it, on the Edit page at DOMAIN/forums/profile/USER/edit/.
The template file that contains the form is called form-user-edit.php.
The plugin author of the plugin I mentioned coded What I asked for, you can find the thread here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/need-some-help-getting-this-right-1
Fixes the Recent Replies perfectly!!!
@robin-w I fully understand that, and I’m grateful that you released it before making it ‘perfect’ because that definition to you might be somewhat different to what it is to me.
The minor issues I have had with this plugin have been completely outweighed by the perks and it’s saved me a LOT of time had I needed to build something similar myself – not to mention the fact that I would have overlooked a lot of things and ended up with something much less functional. So I apologise if any of my feedback seems negative because that’s not my intention at all – at the end of the day, the plugin (from day one, without any improvements) is exactly what I needed.
Thanks for going out of your way to help the WordPress community – it’s very much appreciated. And say thanks to your wife also for being cool about the hours you put into it 🙂 This developer right here certainly appreciates it 🙂
It looks like we won’t get the threaded replies in v1, I had a similar issue with vBulletin 5 and which is not included in bbPress at this stage. Trying to get a single query to handle all of the replies doesn’t look good at the moment for WPS.
You can take a look at the vBulletin5.php importer, rather than just ‘Forums’, ‘Topics’ and ‘Replies’ sections I had to add a 4th, ‘Comments’ this then meant I had to extend the main converter to handle this extra step.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/2440/
I’ll have a think about this over the next couple of days and come up with some options, there is a chance I can add this extra section to bbPress and then included WPS threaded replies, vBulletin5.php in the next version of bbPress. There is just a ton of testing needed to ensure the ~20 other importers continue to work and fix any issues that arise…
I know some tables are named bb-something, but do the post have a “tell” ?
This, you should not have ANY tables named bb-something, are you using the old v0.9x/1.x version of bbPress? The standalone version or are you using bbPress v2.x plugin for WordPress?
