@earthman100 If you just want to map them manually you can do this from the WordPress ‘Users’ admin panel though you need to be using bbPress 2.3.
The new shortcode is actually [bbp-stats] https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
If you create the user, it doesn’t assign them a role right away. They’ll get role mapped once they login to the site, or once you assign them a role.
In theory, but in a site using iMember360 and Infusionsoft, the user creation bypasses the standard WordPress hooks. So does logging in. Which leaves me with users who are subscribers but do not get a “Participant” role.
I have been looking for documentation for how you are “mappping” them to a role as you mention, but can’t find any. Where are the roles stored now, please, and do you have an easy function I can call on a different hook so I can “map” them manually, please?
@premitheme – I’ve used and tested with PHP 5.2/5.3/5.4 without incident.
The “Are you sure you wanted to do that?” errors come from nonce requests failing inside of the `bbp_verify_nonce_request()` function. My guess is the `$requested_url`, `$matched_url`, and `$home_url` are coming up with some kind of mismatch, causing `$result` to return `false` and the nonce check to fail.
It’s also possible that the parsing and comparisons in `bbp_verify_nonce_request()` could use improvement. This function was modified in 2.3 to allow for reverse-proxying, which may have broken some other type of URL. If so, would love your help there. 🙂
i seem to be a newbie at this, can you please walk me through the steps?
You’ll want to search bbPress’s files for the above function, and test to make sure it’s working correctly. If you’re operating a site as the main developer, you’ll want to know how to touch files on the server (with an code editor, FTP program, etc…)
Then, you’ll want to search the web for common PHP debugging techniques (var_dump(), echo(), die(), debug_backtrace(), etc…) so you can gain a better understanding of how the code you’re trusting to make your site function works.
This is one of those times where, hopefully, a little tough love will pay in dividends for you later.
I moved your topic to a new thread as it isn’t related to the one you replied to.
I presume you are meaning the built in WordPress Export tool /wp-admin/export.php
I presume you are you exporting ‘All Content’ rather than forums, topics, replies individually?
After you have performed the import do you run the bbPress’ repair tools?
@johnjamesjacoby So, when I’m working on bbpress on MAMP (not pro) and while I’m working, I found the 2.3 update notice, then I hit “update now” link. After the update I just tried to post topics or replies and all what I get is the “Are you sure …” ERROR. What is the reason in your opinion?
The update works good on XAMPP for example as well as the build-in localhost I setup on mac, I just wonder what’s happened, is it bug in the code? MAMP configuration issue? php version?
I have only had access to test vBulletin 4.x to test importing into bbPress.
Does vBulletin 3.8.x support topic tags at all?
Also this doc has any other known issues https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/vBulletin/

@clickmac – You can check the results of `bbp_user_has_profile()` to make sure they are returning `true`. This is the only place in bbPress where it would specifically prevent a user’s profile from being visible (and instead invoke a 404 response) though it seems unlikely to be the cause.
@netweb you can check it out on my testwebsite http://realhood.xicp.net/forums
leave your email, I will send a account to you if smile..

What happens if you try a normal WordPress theme (twentyten, twentyeleven, twentytwelve?)
Something tells me a plugin or your theme is filtering the topics query, resulting in it returning 0 results.
this was the cause of my problem – if u do hear back from the developer or perhaps include this as standard would be great if u could update this thread
Anyone having issues with MAMP, I run MAMP Pro locally, and have used it to develop bbPress since years back. MAMP isn’t the issue, something else is, and it should not have changed between bbPress 2.2 and 2.3.
For people having issues accessing the administration area, your account needs the “Key Master” role to access the “Forums” menu, and at least “Moderator” to access “Topics and “Replies.”
- In the past, these checks were using the `is_super_admin()` function, which would default to users with the “Administrator” role on single-site installations.
- Those that have fixed it using the auto-role setting, bbPress is automatically granting Administrators the Key Master role.
- Auto-role should most likely be turned on anyways; it’s only a setting to allow site-owners the option to let other role plugins handle that instead.
People wanting to go back to using an old version of bbPress, I’d highly advise that you troubleshoot your installations and stick with 2.3. Rolling back is a temporary fix that doesn’t help track down what’s going on; when we’re willing and available to help you figure out what is going on, it’s best to take advantage of the free support instead.
@realhood I still cannot reproduce your issue using the same settings you have above or with ‘Forum Prefix’ unchecked.
This works perfectly http://127.0.0.1/search?bbp_search=test
Most are using a plugin for this and there are a few that offer similar functions so check out some of the plugins listed https://bbpress.org/plugins/
Posts aren’t “moved” between installations or versions. In fact, from any 2.2 to 2.3, there are no changes to the database at all.
@realhood What do you have set for each of these ‘Single Slugs’?
I am running the latest BBPress 2.3 and I don’t see any link for the user to be able to update their profile (i.e. avatar, signature, password, etc.). So, I want to be able to put a hyperlink in the menu or somewhere else on my wordpress site that allows the user to access this page. I have found it to reside in http://www.domain.com/forums/users/nameofuser
The problem is, I can’t figure out a way to call out the username in the url. I tried http://www.domain.com/forums/users/%s and that didn’t work. I am using permalinks and tried http://www.domain.com/forums/users/%username%/ and still nothing.
Someone please help, thank you!
There are many different issues that have been posted here in this thread, please add your specific details of your issues when you post a message, we cannot read minds 🙂
I got the same issue as well. will the fix take long to get out?
@jezza101 “Can I control which stats are shown? For example “empty tags” isn’t something I really want to boast about on my forum!”
‘Empty Tags’ are ONLY shown if you actually have empty topic tags… Essentially that is giving you a hint that you have topic tags with no associated topics so you can delete those empty topic tags.
@netweb
What do you have your permalinks set to? (‘Settings’ -> ‘Permalinks’)
http://127.0.0.1/%post_id%.html
What is the ‘Search Slug’ for bbPress set to? (‘Settings’ -> ‘Forums’ )
using it→no issues (i don’t know why ,but it works)
not using →issues
