We had a PHPBB many years ago, which we migrated to bbPress around four years ago, but it seems some flags remained in the database for the whole time, flags like (_bbp_class, _bbp_old_user_id, _bbp_password, _bbp_phpbb_user_avatar, _bbp_phpbb_user_sig). They might be needed; I have no idea.

But after the last update of WP and all the plugins, all the migrated users started to get an error message instead of being able to log in:
`
{“success”:false,”data”:[{“code”:”bbp_converter_db_connection_failed”,”message”:”Database connection failed”}]}
`
After some debugging and searching, I found https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3419#no0 and tried to remove _bbp_class, which helped 🙂

I just needed to wipe the SQLite Object Cache because it kept the old data. It might happen to someone else in the future, I don’t know. I don’t know if you can somehow influence that this metadata is not stored there or something else. But at least you have the information that it might happen.

I have the plugin BBpress that allow me to create a forum on the admin panel on wordpress, the form is basic I just have to tape a name and pusblished it. Forum > Add new > tape the name > published and my forum is create. I also have a taxonomy forum that is linked to the user for that I do use the plugin User Taxonomy & Directory.

[Robin W]

so how are you creating the forum on bbpress? ie I go into xx and I click this and then type that

[kimis]

I did

add_action('bbp_new_forum_post_extras', 'my_custom_bbp_new_forum_handler');

function my_custom_bbp_new_forum_handler( $action = '' ) {
error_log('test function');
    if ( 'bbp-new-forum' !== $action ) {
        return;
    }

    if ( ! bbp_verify_nonce_request( 'bbp-new-forum' ) ) {
        bbp_add_error( 'bbp_new_forum_nonce', __( '<strong>ERROR</strong>: Are you sure you wanted to do that?', 'bbpress' ) );
        return;
    }

    do_action( 'bbp_new_forum_post_extras', $forum_id );

    $forum_title = get_the_title($forum_id);
    $forum_slug = sanitize_title($forum_title);

    if (!term_exists($forum_title, 'forums')) {
        $result = wp_insert_term($forum_title, 'forums', array(
            'name' => $forum_title,
            'slug' => $forum_slug
        ));

        if (is_wp_error($result)) {
            error_log("Erreur lors de l'insertion du terme : " . $result->get_error_message());
        } else {
            error_log("Terme de taxonomie 'forums' créé avec succès : " . print_r($result, true));
        }
    } else {
        error_log("Le terme existe déjà : " . $forum_title);
    }

    $redirect_url = bbp_get_forum_permalink( $forum_id );
    bbp_redirect( $redirect_url );
}

but it still doesn’t work the first error log doesn’t appear on the debug file

Hello, I have a taxonomy forums that is is linked to the user, how can I do to create a forum on bbpress and when it’s done it also create a forum on my taxonomy

my code is :

function create_forum_taxonomy_entry($forum_id, $forum_args) {

$forum_title = get_the_title($forum_id);
$forum_slug = sanitize_title($forum_title);

error_log(“Création du forum : ” . $forum_title);
error_log(“Slug du forum : ” . $forum_slug);

// Insertion du forum dans la taxonomie forum
if (!term_exists($forum_title, ‘forums’)) {
$result = wp_insert_term($forum_title, ‘forums’, array(
‘slug’ => $forum_slug
));

if (is_wp_error($result)) {
error_log(“Erreur lors de l’insertion du terme : ” . $result->get_error_message());
} else {
error_log(“Term créé avec succès : ” . print_r($result, true));
}
} else {
error_log(“Le terme existe déjà : ” . $forum_title);
}
}
add_action(‘bbp_insert_forum’, ‘create_forum_taxonomy_entry’, 10, 2); but this function isn’t called

the file has another function below and it works so it’s not the calling of the file

This is not bbPress related. This is error in Avada theme, most likely due to outdated code that is not updated for PHP 8.x. This message is related to changes in PHP 8.1. You need to update Avada, or contact Avada author to fix the problem.

[kimis]

When I used your pluggin, there is this message :
Deprecated

How to Use bbPress on Multilingual Sites with WPML

[Marisa]

Is there an action I can use to execute PHP code before every bbPress page loads?

Then maybe I can try altering cookies to make bbPress switch languages.

I want language selection to be dynamic and user controlled.

[Marisa]

Thanks Robin. I have LocoTranslate and PolyLang already installed.

The .po and .mo translation files are already loaded for bbPress in the system directory.

However I need a way for bbPress to pick them up.

[Marisa]

bbPress has been translated into many languages. See https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress/

Is there a cookie I can set to make bbPress dynamically switch from say the English language to the French language?

I have a website in several different languages.

Hi, I am using the bbPress integration with BuddyPress, so that when new BuddyPress groups are created, their respective associated forum is also created. I would like these forums to already have some topics created by default (such as rules, general chat, …), so that the user does not have to create them manually. Although the user can create more topics later, but I would like the forum to already include some topics by default when the group is created. Is it possible to achieve this? Thanks.

[Robin W]

ok, all I can suggest is the standard fault finding…

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

If you look on the linked page and see a big white block, the oEmbed on my site isn’t working (when someone makes a post in bbPress, it automatically embeds it as shown on the page, but the link doesn’t work). Everything looks right, but the link doesn’t work. I can’t figure out what I can do to fix it or disable it. I’ve turned to a friend who knows how to code (I don’t) and she said that her bbPress installation has the same issue.

Here’s a page with an example:

Kirk Hunter Farewell Sale

Thanks for your help.

[Robin W]

sounds like there is something that bbpress is seeing as an error or not filled in field.

My suggestion would be to get a screenshot of the fields he has completed (and any he hasn’t) and try the exact entry the is trying to create.

I’d also get him to try posting a test topic with something simple in another forum, or posting a reply to see if it is him, or what he is posting that is the issue

[Manaus]

A forum user notified me that he cannot post a new topic. He writes the the title, the post body, the tags, and then on clicking on ‘send’ the page gets refreshed on the topics list view, and at the bottom he can still view the post contents still in the form, with the form prefilled with the data already entered.

His role is participant, and for the sake of testing I faked a participant role to check if the role was blocked. It is not. I managed to post a new toping without hassle.
The Forum is open.

Where or how can I get more details about the process? What’s blocking, or what errors are returned, maybe they are hidden. Any suggestion?

Hello
I use Block FSE theme in my site anfdactivate BBPress in it.
so, How can I change the default font family of Visual Editor and style it?

[WPabmm]

Have done so

Considering there is some team overlap and proof of concept with bbPress I think it is worth mentioning it here too

[WPabmm]

This is an old topic yet it appears resolved on bbPress.

Is this something that could be done for BuddyPress and Markdown?

[actev]

Hi there we are trying to make BBPress work on our site, http://www.adventurecountrytracks.com we use Memberpress and Elemntor, unfortunately, we cannot finish the design work, even though we have used some of the hints we could find online.
we use current versions all updated.
even if we can make the front forum page to work, the topics and all sites below arnt adjusted.
it would be great if we can get help…

thanks and cheers.
