Hello,

I have bbPress installed on one site and wanted to move/import all the forum, topics, replies and users to another site with a different domain But when I ran the import via bbpress forum tool, it doesn’t import anything.

Can you check this recording for more detail and advice on how to resolve this issue.

thanks!

I use ForumWP plugin. But now I wanna use bbPress. But how can I migrate ForumWP to bbPress without lossing any data?

[Florena]

there is a fixed permalink for the forum in the forum settings. I only can change the last part of the name on bbpress. But to display the forum on my pages I need the same link name for my pages.

nichtvovndieserwelt.org/forums/forum/verbuendeten-forum is the name on the forumssettings. But If I try to create a page with this url address it changes automatically in the settings to nichtvondieserwelt.org/forums-forum-verbuendeten-forum. So there appears no forum on the different page because it has different addresse. Again how can I make display the forum on a page and make buttons to link to them if I can not choose my own address in BOTH cases????

this error is in the gd-bbpress-tools plugin

you need to report it here

I cannot replicate this on my test site – I presume you have this as the statistics widget?

if so it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

I am making a website with Japanese pages and English pages. I have made a forum in Japanese using bbpress of Japanese version. Now, I want to make a forum in English. I tried plugin, Polylang, to make English forum from the Japanese forum but can not change the Japanese notes on it. How can I make the English forum?

WordPress: 6.0.1
bbPress: 2.6.9 (Japanese)
The website is under making and not open to the public yet.

Hello,

I have just installed the latest version of bbPress, but on the forums page, I am seeing the following errors. The ‘Registered Users’ and ‘Forums’ part seems fine but the rest are not.

Here is the code from that section of the file:

<dt><?php esc_html_e( 'Forums', 'bbpress' ); ?></dt>
	<dd>
		<strong><?php echo esc_html( $stats['forum_count'] ); ?></strong>
	</dd>

	<dt><?php esc_html_e( 'Topics', 'bbpress' ); ?></dt>
	<dd>
		<strong><?php echo esc_html( $stats['topic_count'] ); ?></strong>
	</dd>

	<dt><?php esc_html_e( 'Replies', 'bbpress' ); ?></dt>
	<dd>
		<strong><?php echo esc_html( $stats['reply_count'] ); ?></strong>
	</dd>

	<dt><?php esc_html_e( 'Topic Tags', 'bbpress' ); ?></dt>
	<dd>
		<strong><?php echo esc_html( $stats['topic_tag_count'] ); ?></strong>

Hi @robin-w,

I finally got to check it, and no, using the bbp-style-pack with the checkbox enabled still didn’t work.

I’ve got it working copying the template-canvas.php file over to /theme/bbpress/page.html

I’m sure this isn’t the right way to do it, but on it’s own, it’s won’t load with the block page.

Thank you so much for your help,

Hi there,

i’ve got a Problem with my bbpress forum.
When I want to view a topic in the Frontend, then i stare at a blank page
After creating a new WordPress site and using the shortcode “[bbp-single-topic id=$topic_id]” it works.
So I can only view the Topic after creating a WordPress page for it.

Is there a Way WordPress creates automatic a Page for a new Topic, with the necessary Shortcode?
Maybe there is another solution for my problem.

I look forward to your replies and thank you in advance 🙂

[Robin W]

I’d guess that it is related to your elementor element that contains it – basically bbpress is trying to fit it’s stuff into a box that is not right for it.

Beyond free help I’m afraid

New to this. I just installed bbPress to my site and something’s wrong with the default setting. Notice on these two pages, the login button and ‘keep me signed in’ button and text appear to be in random places. How can I fix this? :

Well a couple of days in since the restart. I’m unconvinced bbpress/wp is doing the right thing with feeds from private forums. So do beware. But wholesale turning off rss seems to result in empty containers, and that seems so far successful in avoiding disclosure of page content.

Who’d have thought a simple thing like this eh?

Does anyone know if you can migrate Buddy Boss Forums to BB Press? I have decided to move on from Buddy Boss for a variety of reasons and just want a plain forum versus the Facebook style. Does anyone know an easy way to migrate Users, Forums and topics?

I’ve created a website using Elementor, LearnDash LMS and bbPress. I’ve installed and activated a forum using BBPress. However, when I try to edit the forum with Elementor I get an error message saying ‘Sorry the content area was not found in your page’.
Do you have any advice about how to resolve this issue?

[Robin W]

ok, so you are correct that topics and replies should be public.

You don’t say how you detected a brute force, and if these were default or easily guessed usernames etc. The whole idea of a brute force attack is to try loads of usernames in the hope one is correct.

bbpress just uses WordPress login, so if you were seeing login attempts this might be just a plain brute force on a wordpress site, unrelated to bbpress.

Identifying users would be unlikely to come from a topic display, given that a private forum does not show public topics either on screen or through rss.

However bbpress does have a profile page which is publicly displayable, and that might be a route. ie if the profile page of a display name does not 404, then username is valid.

you can use :

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Profile

where you can choose who to display profiles to, and therefore prevent profile pages of your users being identifiable.

[Robin W]

ok, I’ve just tried this on my test site with just twentyten and bbppress and it sends with carriage returns, so possible that the email system you are using or indeed the email recipient software is stripping – may be may not be.

otherwise it could be a theme or plugin issue

Aloha. Somehow my installation of bbpress is mucked up big time. There are two of us who are WP administrators, but neither one is a ‘keymaster’, so we can’t do much. Right now we have no data / forums we wish to preserve, so a complete delete and reinstall would hopefully be the quickest and easiest way to move forward.

I’ve found this article on how to delete bbpress, but step two is: Go to Tools > Forums > Reset Forums. When I go to ‘Tools’ there is no link to Forums, so I can’t do this step. I’m guessing this is related to the fact that neither one of us is a keymaster and I have no idea how to restore keymaster permissions

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mahalo,

Harry Z

Wow that code is a lot more involved than I thought it would be. I’ll probably end up just using your plugin. Thanks as always! Do I need to send as text/html if I just want the correct line spacing or is there a way to fix that for plain text emails? Right now by default all the carriage returns get stripped by default, that’s really all I’m trying to fix. If I need to send HTML that’s fine but I have a hard time believing the default bbpress notifications should look like this

Aloha. I’m trying to get bbpress working and I’m having a problem. bbpress has been installed and activated, but I don’t see ‘Forum’ on the dashboard. This is bbpress 2.6.9 running on WP 6.0.1. I have uninstalled and re-installed bbpress with no change.

Searching the internet tells me it’s a conflict with another plugin or with the theme. However, I’ve installed the “Health Check and Troubleshooting” plugin (https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/) and when I enable it, then enable bbpress, I still don’t see the Forum in the dashboard. Changing themes did not help either.

Also, when looking at the View Details of bbpress, I see this: Warning: This plugin has not been tested with your current version of WordPress. Is this my problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As I mentioned, the BBPress login form is visible but not working. If I fill in my credentials it just takes me to the WordPress login page and I have to refill my credentials.

My theme is Elementors Hello and I have a bunch of different plugins.
