Hi,
I have the WP page http://www.jdmspritturkey.com and the phpbb forum http://www.jdmspiritturkey.com/forum and its all alive for 2 years. I have some problems with the phpbb so i want to import it to bbpress so the portal and the forum will be fully integrated.

If i import to bbpress what will happen to wp portal writings, users etc or is there any strategy with no casulties?

Our wp page version is 4.9.8 and the phpbb is 3.2.2

Thanks for the answers.

Hi,

PHPBB is now on 3.22 . Apparently a bunch of the table columns have changed.

I’m willing to install bbpress 2.6 to see what happens, I have installed a test wordpress site, but I can’t seem to find where to download it.

Any info about converting a 3.22 PHPBB database?

I’m not aware of anything in bbpress that would do this. Bbpress just checks if the user is registered. Are you running caching software ?

Hello,

First time bbPress user. When new participants register they can’t create new topics for around 15 minutes.

Is this a standard feature and can it be disabled? I have a forum behind a login area so we are able to filter out bots.

Many thanks

Hi there,
Regarding the bbPress documentation, Forum Participant role should access the edit _topics ability and therefore have an edit topic link displayed on the topics they owned which is not the case for me. I wonder if there is anything to do to make it work. At the moment only the Forum Moderator role and of course the Admin role are capable to see that link, but I don’t want to assigne this roles to people as I only want them to edit their own topics.

Here’s some little screens to show you the problem :

With this role assigned :

The problem stands in Appearance / Widgets. I add the AdRotate + other plugins inside bbPress Sidebar, but it they are not displayed.

I would like to change the scope of the question, but I don’t know if I have the permissions.

Hello,

I would like to use AdRotate Banner Manager on my bbPress site and I tried to follow the basic tutorial from here: AdRotate tutorial

As a summary, I created a dummy page with my image and embedded link advert – so its working. However, inserting the same code into a new advert inside AdRotate Banner Manager has no effect on my page.

I save the advert for a group and from the group setting, I selected page injection into some of the site pages. It doesn’t appear on none.

Maybe there is a visibility issue? Or the theme DiBusiness does not support AdBanner? I disabled any add block on my site.

Thank you for any help.

Thanks, I took a second look at this and I put a filter into my style pack plugin a while ago to stop blocked users getting emails as bbpress does not do this.

If you want to do this directly, add this to your functions file

function rew_fltr_get_forum_subscribers( $user_ids ) {
        if (!empty( $user_ids ) ) {
                $new_user_ids = array();
                foreach ($user_ids as $uid) {
                        if (bbp_get_user_role($uid) != 'bbp_blocked') {
                                $new_user_ids[] = $uid;
                        }
                }
                return $new_user_ids;
        } else {
                return $user_ids;
        } 
}; 
// add the filter

if(!function_exists('bbptoolkit_fltr_get_forum_subscribers')){
add_filter( 'bbp_forum_subscription_user_ids', 'rew_fltr_get_forum_subscribers', 10, 1 );
}

This is complementary to this recent post: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/remove-members-from-forum/

I’m trying to figure out a solve for users that are no longer paying members who have left the membership and are still receiving email notifications for topics or forums they’ve subscribed to.

I understand the way the membership software and bbPress could be improved, however, until that happens, I need a workaround even if it’s manual.

I tried changing the status of a user, per Robin’s suggestion to “blocked”, however, they are still receiving notifications.

Any other suggestions?

The user cannot edit these themselves, since they’ve left the membership.

[Robin W]

simplest way would be to use my bbp style pack plugin

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>freshness display

if you want to edit a file, then ensure you do this to a copy in a bbpress folder in your child theme.

you’ll find the original template you want to alter in

templates/default/bbpress/loop-forums.php

[petersweb]

Checking again if anyone is able to assist me.

I am happy to pay for someone to perform the migration work to bbPress.

ok do not worry, I deleted the forum and uninstalled the bbpress plugin.

As of the beginning of August, two strange things began happening with emojis:

1) The emoji appears properly in the editor (visual AND text), but displays as “?” in the published post.

2) All previously-published emoji icons changed to a single style, independent of browser, OS, and device.

(Note: Robin Wilson’s “add visual editor” plugin has been enabled)

Great thanks for your help…

well not sure what used to be there – but bbpress had some spam authors I was trying to search for – but i do not think they were created as users. Is this possible? I did have incorrect settings to allow posts without first having user (now changed)

so in my case – I couldn’t search for users (there were none) or authors – correct?

Any way – thanks for the help and have a great vacation!

[Robin W]

I suspect your theme is blanking them.

If you are able to view your file structure using ftp, then see if you have a folder

wp-content/themes/%your-Avada-theme-name%/bbpress.

where %your-Avada-theme-name% is the name of your Avada theme.

If so then you should find a bunch of templates which the theme author have altered

[Robin W]

If you also want to delete the user, you can do

dashboard>users>all users then search for the user you want to delete

hover around there avatar and name and you will a bunch of links which one of them says delete

click that

then the next screen which is added from bbPress which says

[] delete all content

[] attribute all content to: {some username}

tick delete all content then confirm deletion

best I can do, I’m on vacation at the moment:-)

I have the same problem.
I enabled reply threading in the setting of forum but not working.
My bbPress version is 2.5.14

[Chris]

Hi. I am building my Online School and I installed bbpress to have a forum. I can’t give you a link now, because my website has coming soon mode active.
I have a problem with breadcrumbs. First of all, they don’t show as I see them in others’ forums. They don’t show at all. I have enabled Page Title Bar to show breadcrumbs, but this is an option from my theme (I use Avada theme). This helped me to show breadcrumbs in the page title bar, but I would prefer to see default breadcrumbs from bbpress just above the forum.

Another problem is that when I click on “Home” it takes me to my homepage, not to the Forum homepage, but this is understandable, since the breadcrums come from my theme, not from the bbpress.

Why I can’t see that simple forum breadcumb trail just above the forum?

Hi,

I found a bunch of new topics and replies and want to delete them – hopefully in a bulk way.

I tried to use the search to find spam authors but it doesn’t seem to work..

Q: whats the best way to delete spam in bbpress?

[dealtek]

I am somewhat new to bbpress – I’m curious if there is a way to make sure that posters need to be signed up as members before they can post.

The goal is to prevent just anybody from posting without first becoming a some kind of member.

Q: how would I set up a membership requirement prior to posting?

[vinsse2001]

Hello !
I installed bbpress on my website (no problem with it) and want to use a category for users who wants to add comments about another page in my website.
For example, a user looks at page http://www.mysite.com/pageABC/, he clicks on a button “add comment”, a new page opens, with in it a prefill post in my bbpress forum (for example with subject “comment about pageABC”).
Is it possible to do this ?
Thanks !

Hi,

If the post is edited, the original post will be gone.
How to keep the original post?

For example,
This reply was modified 1 second ago by bbpress. click to see original.

Anyone knows the custom code for it?

[Robin W]

that error suggests that your theme Stockholm and file js/plugins.js is the problem.

So it initially looks like enabling tinymce within bbpress is calling the tinymce or other code within your theme – the bbpress code you are using just turns on the wordpress function.

to prove, try switching as a test to a default theme, such as twentyseventeen and see if the error goes away

[nero2001]

Hi,
I installed a theme that I bought on Themeforest.com and that has among the recommended plugins also bbpress. I activated the plugin and created the forum. I created test threads and I noticed that except in the root page, the menu always disappears in the internal pages of the forum.
It’s normal?

P.S. I do not know if to create problems can be the Polylang plugin

Thank You
