Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

[Robin W]

for clarity the reasons it is left are to do with reinstalling bbpress, which since you have deleted means you can delete the role

[lxking]

So, I tried “bbPress WP Tweaks” instead of Custom Sidebars. At first it didn’t work, either. But then I tried a different wrapper… the sidebars were in index.php and now it works.

Hi Heroyouwi, I hope you are happy to answer this. I have tried your phpbb 3.2.9 fix bbpress import script and sadly it failed. I am using phpBB 331 and the latest bbPress. What is the likely issue?
Many thanks.

My website name: mimarlar.online . I created a special forum for Turkish architects with bbpress Is there an easy way to make a mobile app for bbpress? What I want is very simple. Do you know of a paid or free company or web service that does this? thnks for all..

[Robin W]

bbpress leaves this behind for reasons I won’t bore you with.

Without bbpress, the role has nothing it can do, so you can just leave it.

If you want to get rid of it (and I can understand if you do) then it is just a wordpress role, so see

How to Delete User Roles from a WordPress Site

[uksentinel]

I have noticed this on other forum medias such as Xenforo, is there a plugin etc. to show via a popup window the contents of first post in a given topic when a user hovers over a topic ?

I have had a good look at plugins etc, just hopefully something already created ?

Thanks

Uninstall bbPress: Please follow this
Log into your WordPress back-end.
Go to Plugins > Installed Plugins.
Scroll down until you see bbPress and click Deactivate.
After the page reloads, scroll back down to the bbPress plugin, now click the red Delete link.
You will now see a screen to confirm your deletion of the bbPress plugin, if you are sure you want to remove bbPress from your installation, hit the OK. button.
bbPress is now uninstalled from your site.

I need a little help with the BBpress converter. I am importing data (4000 users) from a phpBB (latest version) database in the locahost database. The converter consistently just goes straight to ‘Stopped’ no matter what I do.

Where is the log for this utility so I can debug?

Thanks,
Stewart

It is extremely disappointing not to have had any reply to this question. I have reached the point where I have upgraded phpBB to the latest version and moved the original phpBB data to the new server so I can run the import to and from the ‘localhost’, and still it fails. I am 100% confident that everything is correct.
What really gets me is the lack of feedback. The application just says ‘Stopped’ every time I try something. Every time. Is there a log somewhere?

If I don’t get some sort of help or guidance soon I will simply give up on BBPress and WordPress. Surely there is someone who knows what’s going on?

Thank you in anticipation.

Anybody got some code to put into WordPress theme functions.php to redirect every instance of links to /wp-admin/profile.php to /forums/users/$user ?

Hi,

This is not related to bbPress, but to BuddyPress, you should post this to BuddyPress forum. But, as I remember, there were options to change some of the slugs in BuddyPress too.

Hey Robin,
hope this message finds you, due to the spam above. How ironic that this forum message is about spam blocking:
You were right with the “stop words”. Strangely, though, i have not been adding them via bbpress but instead using a plugin called “BanHammer”. It has helped greatly in stopping spam signups, but i didn’t realise that it added the strings to the “Settings –> Discussion –> “Disallowed Comment Keys” part.
I had added the string “gmail.com” as I was getting some spam signups, and realised that the account i used to test post a comment was in fact my gmail.com account. So there you go. BanHammer and stop words.
Thx again for your help, this is invaluable due to the amount of traffic we will shortly have.
thx.
This topic is now closed.

I’m the web developer for a biotech discussion website. I’m currently running the Kleo theme with bbpress.

I have nested replies enabled (with help from the bbstyle pack plugin, as it was not working previously) but also want to have pagination enabled. Nothing seems to be working and I’m in desperate search of a fix.

I’ve already tried deactivating and reactivating…troubleshooting…everything.

I’ve followed this tutorial but have come across certain errors.

I’ve also tried going through this ticket among other similar ones and no such luck.

I keep getting an error with the ‘format’ => ‘page/%#%’, line from Step 2. It’s telling me there is an extra %. Once I remove the extra %, the error moves down to the ‘prev_text’ => __(‘<’), line.

I’m happy to give any more information that is needed.

Sorry, guys.
I figured out this problem.
If one parent has thousands sub forums, bbpress is very heavy.
I delete parent, bbpress is light.

Hello
I installed bbPress. When a user comes to see the topic, he displays a text.
What should I do to make it right?

[Milan Petrovic]

bbPress is very open to adding all sorts of features, you can change practically everything related to how the forums are displayed, add all sorts of the feature. My GD Quantum Theme Pro plugin replaces the whole bbPress theme package with a custom one that can be controlled via Customizer. My plugins add hundreds of features into bbPress.

BbPress is also limited itself in customizations and adding features.

[Milan Petrovic]

Hi,

I have a lot of bbPress plugins, and all are up to date (free and pro): https://bbpress.dev4press.com/. What kind of features are you looking for? You can request the test website access from my website.

Regards,
Milan

[Robin W]

your website link doesn’t work, and without explaining what you want, hard to help further.

there are many bbpress plugins – but we rely on people writing these for free and in their spare time, so since you are getting a free product, I’m not sure how complaining about lack of currency helps 🙂

[truth4vahid]

Why are bbPress plugins few and often out of date?
This website needs more possibilities to be a pro forum: englishteam.ir
What can I do to get this aim?

Our website is made with bbPress and Buddypress plugins in wordpress. This old plugin “BuddyPress Global Search” used to work well on our site. But this plugin stopped updating and working from 2019; We are looking for a search plugin that also allows sorting of search results.
I have tried plugins like Relevanssi, Ajax, and GD Power Search, but for some reason, nothing shows up on the site, once I disabled Global Search, the search only yields a Google style list with no sorting options.
Thank you for any feedback!

BBPress 2.6.5
BuddyPress 6.3.0
