@senatorman we’ve got a few more fixes in the pipeline tht have been implemented as part of wordpress.org/support also switching to bbPress 2.6-alpha
FYI: Some quick w.org/support stats: ~2.5 million topics, ~6 million replies and ~8 million users
This sounds like bbPress should switch to BP’s avatars just as it switches to BP’s member profiles (rather than bbPress’ profiles) if the BP profile component is enabled.
Anyone know of a plugin that does this?
It sounds like bbPress should probably do this out of the box
So I am using bbpress alongside buddypress. This is great because running a little gaming community, it is awesome having the ability to use the widely know traditional forums as bbpress offers them while adding some great social features brought by buddypress.
Now I’ve done my research and figured out that bbpress relies on the wp profile informations (since well wp and bbpress work great together). Aside of that, there is some synchronisation between buddypress and wp profile informations.
What I’d like is be able to use only one avatar for both plugins. bbpress fetches the wp profile avatar while buddypress as one on its own. So my idea is to fetch buddypress’s image when displaying the user’s avatar on the forums.
I tried to search for documentation on this and didn’t find much. I ended up digging the plugin code and stumbled upon, while looking in the /plugins/bbpress/includes/users/template.php file, bbp_current_user_avatar() which uses bbp_get_current_user_avatar() that calls get_avatar() with the desired size and user id.
So I guess the obvious step is telling bbpress to look for the buddypress profile image rather than use this get_avatar() function, which I suspect is fetching the wp profile image.
But I am stuck here, mainly because I am new to wordpress, also to php. I should be able to sort myself out with some indications (how and what to use) or even some pseudo code.
I want to do this because I want people to not use their wp profile (there is not much there anyway) and rather go through their buddypress profile only.
Thank’s in advance for any help.
I just did the WordPress 4.7 update and noticed that the links to BBPRESS topics and replies are no longer in the menu.
Has something changed?
bbPress 2.6-alpha is very stable, that’s right.
But still slow on huge forums, and gets slower by using big subforums.
My site has 75K topics and 1.100K posts
-posting takes ~5 to ~10 seconds (sometimes it hangs and takes almost ~50 seconds)
-Forumindex takes ~5 seconds to load
-Put topic/post to trash by modarator takes more than a minute
-Delete topic/post from trash by moderator takes more than a minute
I hope developers can find a good fix to make this, otherwise my forum has no future
I’ve edit the viewtopic in my old pbpbb forum in my sub-domain
And do the personal DB settings, and nog i get this error
Fatal error: Call to a member function free() on a non-object in /home/***/***/public_html/archief/viewtopic.php on line 48
Is there a way to export al old and new urls to a csv file. So i can import this in my redirect plugin on my new forum?
Google send many visitors with the old url that not can find on my new bbpress forum. So i can catch these visitors and redirect them
@cmistico Could you create a new ticket for us to track this for you please.
If you could include what version of HHVM you are using and any errors messages you see, also anything that you think will help us replicate your issue would be great.

Hello all, just imported a VB4 forums into bbPress. No errors. If I click on the Forums link to show all my forum categories (first image below), I see them all as they should be, along with a count of how many Topics and Posts there should be. Also shows when the last post was correct. However, when I click into the actual forum category (Advertisers for example, second image below), I don’t see any topics. The strange thing is if I do a search, I can see topics, replies, etc. I just can’t see them in the forums. Any ideas? Thanks so much.


Hi all,
I have this site
http://www.analisidelsangue.net with bbpress forum here
Dubbi sulle tue analisi? Fai una domanda sul forum
(about 5k users and 20k post and replies)
After switch to wordpress 4.7 I don’t see more the replies of forum in my backend
I’m using HHVM instead of PHP 7.0– if I use PHP 7.0 all works properly.
But I’d like to use HHVM because my blog is faster
Please can you help me in some way?

Please keep an eye on https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3028 (Or #bbPress in Slack)
I’m actively trying to resolve the as we speak and will post updates to that ticket
Ok, have found this:
The repair tool “Recalculate private and hidden forums” has a bug in it 🙁
When that repair tool is run private and hidden forum are assigned both _bbp_private_forums and _bbp_hidden_forums statuses so this is why a user with the Participant role could not read a private forum as after that tool had been run it was also been given the hidden status also.
The workaround for this is to do exactly what you did by “changing each forum from Private to Public back to Private” as this doesn’t touch the broken repair tool and sets the visibility status correctly.
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2512
So, “changing each forum from Private to Public back to Private” fixed my issue.
Also I don’t know if this function I created to add capabilities did anything in combination with deactivating and activating bbPress, but this function was in my Theme functions.php file during the process of doing the deactivation and activation. 😉
// bbPress Keymaster capabilities fix
function aitpro_add_caps_bbp_keymaster_fix() {
$capabilities = array(
'keep_gate',
'spectate',
'participate',
'moderate',
'throttle',
'view_trash',
'publish_forums',
'edit_forums',
'edit_others_forums',
'delete_forums',

);
$role = get_role( 'bbp_keymaster' );
foreach( $capabilities as $cap ) {
$role->add_cap( $cap );
}
}
add_action( 'admin_init', 'aitpro_add_caps_bbp_keymaster_fix');
Even funnier. All I had to do was deactivate and activate bbPress again. I usually do manual upload upgrading since in past versions of bbPress and BuddyPress my site would crash if I did a normal plugin update or even deactivating and activating bbPres and BuddyPress and I would have to restore the database. Anyway took a chance and no site crash and all capabilities were updated successfully. Yeah!
I managed to reinstate the forums by deleting and reinstalling plugins in a particular order. It didn’t seem to work if they were installed or updated in a different order even if the end installed-active list was the same. I’m running genesis theme with a child theme and the issue started with upgrading to WP 4.7.
Here is what I did which solved it, I do not know why (unfortunately):
1. using ftp, I overwrote bbPress plugin with an old version dated 5/6/2015
2. in the wp-admin area, under plugins, update the plugin to the current one
3. in the wp-admin area, search for, find, install and activate the plugin ‘User Role Editor’. then the ‘Forums, Topics, Replies’ appeared in the sidebar of the dashboard
4. then I could open tools/forums and could see the forum-fixing items here: https://codex.bbpress.org/features/tools/repair-forums/
5. magically all seems to work now
Oh well I give up for now. I can live without any bbPress backend menus since everything works fine on the frontend. I’ll probably look at this some other day. 😉
Hi, for the record I have now uninstalled every plug in and tried the 2012 them approach, but have not been able to get bbpress going under either circumstance.
Curiously, I also tried a different bulletin board plugin, and while their console did appear in the menu, their forums did not.
Any leads?
Ive deactivated bbpress and all the other plugin once and reactivated again but forums doesnt appear , why?
please look at it it gives page not found error:
http://gameslopedy.com/forums/
@vcgs – All the bbPress backend menus disappeared again after I refreshed the Dashboard backend for the first time after creating the new administrator/keymaster user account. So that must mean the usermeta data is being updated somewhere “after the fact” and that is the root cause of the problem. Very Rough General Example: If WP version is X then update Y usermeta data. At least I know exactly where I should be looking. So thanks for that. 😉
Hello,
Im working on a bbpress forum meant for businesses. I’d like to add a “company” field to the registration which input should show up on the bbpress profile page.
I’ve been looking all over the place but cant find a solution. I found some simular problems but none are the same, or without answer. I did find some plugins which can takeover the login proces (like ultimate member) but none who can do what i want: add a custom field and show its input on the profile page.
My theme is:Dynamix
bbpress version: 2.5.11
Anyone who had the same problem?
