At first glance it doesn’t seem to look like a forum at all but it was cleanly done and more appealing to the genre your website attracts.

Hello all, I think I solved the problem, check out my answer at the end of the post.

Why would you remove the “Freshness” code from public views by the way?

[spaghetti]

would suggest the same thing Andre has advised but there were still options left on your side to think about that will work to your preference and advantage.

Hoping this tool will be worth importing and keeping. Thanks for sharing this info.

Hi,

Is there a plugin that allows users to select or type a “mood” in BBPress? I’ve been searching for this functionality but haven’t been able to find it.

Thx.

If you plan on integrating bbPress with WordPress, you’ll have much better luck using 2.0. While its very possible to do in 1.0/1.1, you’re going to have a hard time finding anyone to help you with how.

[John James Jacoby]

Are you able to see your forums in wp-admin? If so, is your bbPress 1.0 install in a subfolder of your WordPress install?

[ebharding]

Any progress on this?

Here is a screen shot of the dashboard showing the issue.

my timezone is “Pacific” and that is set in the wordpress settings.

system clock says 12:21,

post time stamp is 12:06 and

the freshness say 7 hours ago.

The forums are going live next week and I am in the process of removing the “Freshness” code from the public views.

We can add vanilla forums to the list.

As to url’s, no, the converter has nothing to do with url’s. It simply gets your data into the format that WordPress expects to see. Now because it is WordPress, you are able to write your own custom permalink redirects in order to match your old system. Of course a lot is going to depend upon what your old system was like. If the old forums had pretty permalinks, then it is much easier to match with custom rules.

Getting the following when trying to view the Forum or Topic using BBPress at this site: http://thechannelatbowen.com/residents

It directs me to the forum and topic pages but then states that there are no Forum or Topic entries. They are clearly there (in the sidebar) and i put them in on the back end but they don’t show up.

I’m using BuddyPress and BBPress for the forums and i think i have them set-up properly but not positive.

Any suggestions?

Any and all help is greatly appreciated. I’ve been struggling with this for 3 days now.

[Realistpm]

i had bbpress installed and as far as i know this was working

then in stalled buddypress… took the check off the buddypress forums and now this is my problem

this page turns up blank

In bbPress times of posts and topics are like Twitter, like 20 minute ago and etc. Then, when the time be very long ago it will shown like what is in General setting date and time field

[varsitysmack]

I’m with you @highexistence. Been having a lot of issues with bbpress 2.0… when going to one of my 1,900 forums (yes, I have that many individual forums) I get a 404 error – Page not found.

My site (a discussion site that relies on bbpress to deliver content to users) has essentially been down for the last 3 days since I’m installed the new bbpress 2.0. This is too long for my site to be down and would also like the steps on how to revert back to the old version of bbpress since that worked with no problems.

[jez101]

I found BJ’s post above the most useful. The trick seems to be not to put the bbpress files in your existing theme, this didn’t work for me. But as BJ suggests, put them in your WP theme folder.

This seemed to get me a step futher, as at least the forum “works” now in terms of functionality. Unfortunately the styling still needs some work.

Anyone any ideas regarding what else I need to do, or is now just a case of trying to apply my themes’s styling some how?

Forum currently looks like this:

http://www.jezza101.co.uk/forums

Oh, the other annoying thing is that the social bookmark function from WP’s Jetpack seems to be appearing! That’s one for another day!.

Cheers.

[varsitysmack]

I look forward to his help. I’ve since switched my theme over to the twentyten theme so that you can see the forums do not show with the new bbpress 2010 theme.

What’s weird is my old theme even says that I don’t have the bbpress files needed to view the forums, but it still lets me view them. The new theme included with bbpress does obviously have the bbpress files, and I can’t view the forums with that theme.

This is very weird – almost like the bbpress 2.0 plugin didn’t install correctly or something since the forums are still viewable with the old theme and not with the new bbpress theme.

[intimez]

I remember seeing mention of conversion from vanilla somewhere but now I do not see it on the list above. Was that dropped?

Also, what happens to urls from search engines after someone convert from another forum? Is there automatic match and redirect?

[Kasper Isager]

bbPress automatically adds the class “reply” to when editing a reply to a topic. Does this class do any anything? I’ve had to remove it using jQuery due to an incompatibility with my current theme. The theme is already using the class “reply” for the reply link on posts, which means that every on the edit reply page get styled like that class.

Hi Anointed, thanks for that. I really need to get my punBB moved to something else ASAP, and was hoping the bbpress might be the one.

Indeed, I just went from punbb > phpbb etc, as there is no direct conversion. It does seems that along the way, little things break – which in the end screw up the final conversion step.

Looking forward to a new release of your tool

[Green Girl Mel]

I’m advancing! Have found php files in my file manager and have managed to change one and it worked! Unfortunately the changes were not re this bbtheme change. I have reread these posts but I’m afraid I’m still really not clear on what is the right changes to make to my php files so that weaver refers to the bbpress templates.

I’ve transferred the bbpress twenty ten file to my weaver theme file. Can someone from bbpress (or someone who has successfully done this) give instructions for the code changes that are needed?

Thanks heaps – can’t wait to get this baby working!

[amirsaam]

Yep, the counting is the problem. but first go and see is your way possible or not. Get the # a +1 will be awesome but how will stored in database? hum?

I have not a good knowledge about database but I know make a +1 to database is a very hard way!

My way is the way bbPress go, how? bbPress count it, store it into the database and you don’t need to store it again, jus’ get it and show it. Your way said bbPress counted it & stored it into db, ok I don’t need it. I’ll count & store it again then show it (I didn’t used bbPlugin, maybe I didn’t see what’s going on here!) but in this way countin’ will be lower but the problem is the +1 that is possible or not cause MySQLs I think have not this ability and everytime they overwrite themselves mean they recount and rewrite the metas, they are not mathmen

[Anointed]

I have not tried the 1x vs. of bbPress, so no experience there.

For the plugin, I actually roll my own themes from scratch, so I would not need to include a plugin for users. I would simply add the functions to my bbPress functions just like all the other custom functions I write.

I don’t count the number on each form submit, I was simply thinking about appending a +1 to the count already stored for the users topic/reply counts on form submit. (user-x topic_count = 200)

As to db size, yeah that is already a ‘problem’ as my db’s are huge. I really don’t know which tradeoff is better, storing the number in the db usermeta table, or doing the calculation on the fly.

Doing it this way would only store a single entry for each user, just like the username, first-name, etc. Printing it out on the screen then takes zero effort and only a single call with zero counts needed.

Scenario: site gets 100 new posts a day and 1000 topic page views a day

your way — Assuming 10 topics/replies per single topic page

10x per page X 1000 page views a day = 10,000 count calculations

my way — Assuming 10 topics/replies per single topic page

100 new topics/replies per day = 100 count calculations as it’s done on submit form.

I still end up showing the 10,000 user counts, but never have to calculate the count prior to display.

100 counts vs. 10,000 counts

mostly just brainstorming in case JJ finds the thread and jumps in. I would love to see more counts stored in bbPress in the future.

[amirsaam]

Yep But you must worry about the database mass, when we need to back it up for big forums you have a big volume to back up, nuh?

Till now my theme for Persian bbPress support site is about 25 query in homepage, it’s cause of the Ajax and jQuery I used in it I don’t think for big forums a query be something that they worry about it.

Another thing, your plugin need to count the post numbers after anypost, save it then give it out. I think it will be more heavier than this query that jus’ evoke the number

Any way I jus’ cause of that write this code to have the number without plugin, cause plugins that we have now make another method and etc. that not awesome.

But still have this mind for myself, we need to upgrade the StandAlone vr more than the bbPlugin cause anyone have not a WP installed! Someone are here that jus’ wanna a forum software! other way, bbPlugin is so awesome!
