Alright. Everything fixed. 😉

To set the post positions new​​, I created a curious script using the function ‘bb_update_post_positions’ and an sql-query to get all topics by id. I loop through the topics and make an function call for an modified ‘bb_update_post_positions’.

I describe here only my approach to solve the problem. My php code itself could be dangerous. 🙂

But if someone has the same problems importing old data (bbPress 1.x)  I’ll help via email.

Here is what is on the home page.

Here is what is on your forums.
http://pastebin.com/q0PzuM4T

So you need to link the image on the forums to the full sized image, if that makes sense?

[oliver_s]

Actually, I can confirm that NONE of my users (except me, as admin) can access the forums. All get the page not found error.

Hello Again,

I am still waiting for a response. There is a problem in Translation file.

For example, here is a permalink for a string “Edit Forum”:
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev/ar/default?filters%5Bstatus%5D=either&filters%5Boriginal_id%5D=19786&filters%5Btranslation_id%5D=2008090

The string is translated but for some reason at my forums string it still appears in English.

I also want to mention that some of the strings displayed properly at my forums with it’s translation, but some strings still appear in English.

Currently I am using WP 3.5 and bbPress 2.2.3

Hope now you have time to check the problem. I do not know if I’m doing something wrong but six weeks ago, the translation worked fine with no problems.

Thanks

Some of my users have the same issue. The moment they login on the wordpress site, the forum becomes inaccessible. The get a page not found error.

Once they log out, it works again. This is a cross-browser issue.

[steacha]

Supposedly, there’s a fix for it here: http://mysitemyway.com/docs/index.php/BbPress

But, the fix doesn’t appear to work quite well if you use plugins that add “HTM” extension to your pages etc.

I would be interested in knowing how to post photos within bbPress posts, just as normal forum posts do. I do NOT have any “TinyMCE” options in my installation (WP 3.5 — bbPress 2.2.3).

Hi JJJ,

after studying the bbPress 1.1 converter code and an deep look into the mySQL data I know the error. In my installation the field post_position is set for all old post to ‘0’. It’s possible that this is an error form the originally convert from phpBB to bbPress 0.9 some years ago.

From the import:
‘join_expression’ => ‘USING (topic_id) WHERE posts.post_position IN (0,1)’

So for now – i’m searching for an solution to reset the post_position.

[nickandrea19]

Nice. Thanks for the heads up. I don’t know if the previous database was an SQL database but I think it was. So, the conversion is installed when bbPress is? Is it accessed and configured through the WP dashboard?

Thanks.

WP 3.5 and bbPress 2.2.3

After moving a bunch of topics from one forum to other (to close the original forum) the moved topics are all floated to the top of their new forums, even if they had a very old freshness before they all said “1 minute” after the move. I tried recalculating the freshness and now it has the correct dates again but they are still out of order so the front page of the forum is full of posts from months ago. Any help?

What you can do is add the current lightbox you have installed to a specific element on your site.

For example, something like this inside script tags in your theme, or inside a js file:

jQuery(“.bbPress .bbpress-forums img”).lightbox();

This does depend on your theme though, might be easier if you could post a site link?

Good luck!

[Lynq]

I never had an issue with updating wordpress to 3.5 or updating bbPress so I would guess that it might be a plugin conflict, but I am not sure.

Have you tested deactivating certain plugins?

[Cristescu Bogdan]

Hi there!

I hove that someone will help me with this problem. I get an error on topics pages:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::have_posts() in /home/jorjette/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/replies/template-tags.php on line 181

On the bbpress file, the section look like this:

function bbp_replies() {
// Put into variable to check against next
$have_posts = bbpress()->reply_query->have_posts();
// Reset the post data when finished
if ( empty( $have_posts ) )
wp_reset_postdata();
return $have_posts;
}

Well the line 181 is :

$have_posts = bbpress()->reply_query->have_posts();

But I think the problem is how the function call the wp function wp_reset_postdata();.

What can I do to change or resolve the issue? Can be a bug in BBpress plugin? This problem appears when I update to WordPress 3.5

[evomedia]

Does anybody have bbpress 2.0.3 they can send me? seems like its the last known version to work with the theme

[johnjack]

Hi All

wordpress –> 3.5
theme –> various
link to test site http://johnjack.co.uk/?forum=new-forum

I am finding that my forums are displaying in a post template, how do I change this to display using a page template instead?

Please help!!

[DearWendy]

I use bbpress plugins for the forums on my website, http://www.DearWendy.com. Since Monday morning when I updated to WordPress 3.5 and bbPress 2.2.3, my forums are not working properly. When logged in as an admin, they work fine for me, but anyone else who tried to post a message gets a 404 error. I’m pretty ignorant about these issues and have not been able to figure out hot to troubleshoot. Is there anyone who can help me?! Please??

[evomedia]

Hi i just insalled bbpress to test it but i cant figure out whats wrong i just get a blank page

This is what ive dona so far: I installed the plugin–> created a forum–> created a page which i named forum–> entered the shortcode [bbp-forum-index]–> When i go to the front i see the page click it and up comes the forum i created when i then click the forum and i get the blank page…–> in the adressfield it says http://www.kanin.se/forums/forum/theforumicreated and the page i blank.

I have the latest wordpress and bbpress

feeling stupid for not seeing the possibly easy solution.

I have searched this forum and the webb even watched a 30 min video on the setup of bbpress didnt get any smarter.

Thanks for your help!

[marycris100]

I’ve tried installing BBPress several times, but I guess I do something wrong because I keep getting this problem.

Like when I click on a topic, the “Your first topic” for example, I get

“The requested URL /forum/topic/1 was not found on this server.”

The URL seems okay, but I get the error so something’s wrong?

I can log in to BBPress, but when I go edit my account I get:

“The requested URL /forum/profile/1/edit was not found on this server.”

Again, the actual URL seems right.

I’m sure there’s something simple I’m missing, like I didn’t set something right in config, but I can’t find it. Any ideas?

[Andreas]

Done as suggested @netweb – changed nothing. The activity streams of previous groups state correctly “XY started the forum topic ABC in the group 123” but the link to the topic is broken, returns a 404. All groups still return ‘This group does not currently have any forums.’ at /forum. Permalinks checked.

[Stephen Edgar]

bbPress includes a conversion tool to import forums/topics/replies/users from some of the popular forum packages eg. bbPress or phpBB

There is an ‘example’ file also included as a ‘reference template’ that if your forum software is using a SQL database then you could easily modify this to be a custom importer by matching the correct database tables/fields etc

The file is called ‘example.php’ and is located in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-admin/converter

[Stephen Edgar]

Update to the latest bbPress 2.2.3 and repeat step 7 in the guide at BuddyPress you linked to above.

[Stephen Edgar]

Sounds great Darren would love to see it, feel free to Pimp your site here.

A plugin would be cool and like Jared there is much on my plate at the moment.

Similar to Martin’s method above I have been using a custom icon font and targeting each forum like so with CSS where in this case the forum id is 34.

.bbp-forum-34 i:before {
  content: "\e112"; /* glyphicons_ */
}

[Jared Atchison]

I think this could be a great plugin. In fact, if memory serves correct, there was one like this for bbPress 1.x or 0.9.

There is just two main parts really. Optionally assigning icons to the Forums (which could either be a radio to select from a certain set or the featured image could be used to upload your own) and then the actual topics.

Wouldn’t be hard to execute. I’d actually love to do something like this as I think it would be fun, just don’t have the time at the moment.

[EJMorges]

I have Light Box Plus installed. I’m not a developer, I haven’t tried to implement anything like that on my own. You make it sound easy but for someone like me I’m sure that it’s not. 😀
