I even tried to put define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘2048M’);
define(‘WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘2048M’); in wp-config.php file.

[Donta]

upgraded from vb 4.1.5 to 4.2.2. so far the import was going great until i got this error.

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 32 bytes) in /home/admin/public_html/…/wp-db.php on line 1001

I tried to allocate more memory (2000M) at php.ini and I am still facing such problem.

The only other thing I can think of is switch to the Twenty Twelve theme, disable all your plugins and go for a look around your site. If you don’t see the issue elsewhere now enable BudddyPress, how about now? Next enable bbPress, now? Back to your theme, check again, enable each of your plugins one by one.

I’ve just created a fresh wordpress site 3.7.1 with theme twentytwelve, and added bbpress 2.4.1 to it.

I am able to create forums, set up users, tools etc. etc.

[David2013]

$retstr = sprintf( esc_html__( 'This forum contains %1$s, and was last updated by %2$s %3$s.', 'bbpress' ), $topic_text, $last_updated_by, $time_since );

Warning: sprintf() [function.sprintf]: Too few arguments in /xxx/xxx/xxx/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/template.php on line 187

Buddypress Version 1.8.1
WPML Version 3.0.1

I need help please,

$retstr = sprintf( esc_html__( 'This forum contains %1$s, and was last updated by %2$s %3$s.', 'bbpress' ), $topic_text, $last_updated_by, $time_since );

I still didn’t figure it out whats wrong.

[Robin W]

Yes totally.

You can create a full width page forum if you wish – if your theme has a full width page option then just create a full width page, put the index shortcode within it [bbp-forum-index].

But it may be better to have a separate sidebar, so that you can have login and latest posts – see http://www.gospbc.co.uk/forums for an example.

Once you have installed bbpress, then install a plugin called bbPress WP tweaks. it gives you a forum specific sidebar, so you can add login and latest posts widgets

You can also use a plugin called “widget logic” with your normal sidebar to control what widgets are seen on what pages. For instance a widget will not appear if you use the logic !is_bbpress()m or will appear if you use is_bbpress()

[Robin W]

Yes, create a page called say “foumsd2 and put the following shortcode in

[bbp-forum-index]

There’s a full list of shortcodes at

https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/

I am currently receiving these errors in my error log every day…

Hello, I have installed bbpress and added a forum and topic.
WordPress and BBPress are both the latest version.

The forum shows in a really odd way with items stacked on top of each other.
http://imagphoto.com/forums/forum/new-forum/

Secondly, the breadcrumb link to the forum results in a 404 http://imagphoto.com/forums/forum/
Yet the parent link in the breadcrumb works http://imagphoto.com/forums/

Is it possible to use pages and the shortcodes to have the forum within a page so that I can control the settings of the page and maybe dump the sidebar to see if that corrects the issue? I checked the documentation but could not see anything about this specific issue.

Many thanks for your help 🙂

I have imported a mingle forum to bbpress and it seems like most of it went fine. However there is one problem with about 10% of the topics.
Some of the posts in the topics has separated from the topic and created their own duplicate topic, but with just the one post, that was separated from the topic.

For instance you have a topic: new bike.
Author original: I want to buy a new bike, which do you recommend. (time: 14. nov. 10.40)
author 1: Cervelo is very good. (time: 14. nov. 11.45)
author 2: Yes take cervelo it is the best (time: 14. nov. 13.50)
Author original: great thx, will check it out
author 3: I prefer cannondale (time: 15. nov 10.05)
author 4: choose centurion (time: 15. nov. 12.30)

The import is done and now you get
Topic: new bike
Author original: great thx, will check it out (time: 14. nov. 16.40)
author 3: I prefer cannondale (time: 15. nov 10.05)

Topic: new bike
Author original:Cervelo is very good (time: 14. nov. 16.40)

Topic: new bike
Author original: choose centurion (time: 14. nov. 16.40)

Topic: new bike
Author original: I want to buy a new bike, which do you recommend. (time: 14. nov. 16.40)

Notice it has changed the time on the new topics to the same on all of them as well.

Any idea for a solution for this?
The forum has several thousands topics and replies, so it would be a lot to manually move all of them.

Hi all. I’m having some problems importing my phpBB forum into bbPress. My forum is quite big, those are my stats:
Posts: 576133 | Topics: 32722 | Users: 12306

I first tried a default import with 1000row/1sec setting. It ran for an entire day, however after around 60000 posts it just started giving me dashes (‘-‘ char) and I really didn’t know what to do or if it was normal. So i just stopped it.

After this I wanted to try more rows, assuming it was going to be faster. So I started (2 tries) a 5000 and a 10000 row imports. However I had it on starting conversion for an hours or more, and never actually started converting. I don’t have memory problems or errors, it’s just very slow I guess.

So my question is: Is there a way to import all together, maybe directly with some bash script, from shell without using a webserver. Or something else to speed it up instead of waiting days in my browser?

Thanks.

I’m not seeing this on any of my installs, try running the ‘Repair BuddyPress Group Forum relationships’ repair tool https://codex.bbpress.org/repair-forums/

I am not that familar with mod_fcgid but a quick search landed me here if that might help

Dropbox are using the old bbPress ‘Standalone’ 1.x version with some custom theming, though I wouldn’t recommend installing this old version as I am quite sure they have lots of customizations in the backend to get around the known numerous issues with the old version.

Go with the new version https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/installation/

Then start customizing the templates to the style you want

[Stephen Edgar]

Same problem, it’s just hanging.

What stage do you get to though now?
(As you shouldn’t be seeing “Delete users WordPress default passwords Deleting previously converted data” etc)

“Deleting Conversion Table… Failed”

This is fine, it just depends on if bbPress used a conversion table to do the conversion or it used the source database tables correctly.

As well as the actual users there are a lot of bots etc. (e.g. AdsBot Google, Ask Jeeves Bot)

These are special phpBB user accounts that I haven’t found a way to ignore importing just yet and must be manually removed after importing, see the follwing for a list of them all.

Hi,

I wonder if there is a notification box or area for a user to see if his topic is under moderation? or a page. It seems to be hassle for the user to receive it via email. Also, I know there is a plugin called bbpress moderation but I don’t want to use it as it will slow down my site. I want everything to be just php code under the bbpress.

Can anyone help me? Thanks.

[zilveer]

EDIT;

I have the following set:

Setting>Forums>Forum User Settings>Auto Role – set to participant

And besides my installation of WP and bbpress is new installed.

Is this some kind of bug?

Any help would be appreciated.

[zilveer]

Hello,
I have WP 3.7.1 installed with bbPress 2.4.1.

When I create a user in frontend the user role is not set.

I need to use repair forum function in order to sync every time I create a user,
WordPress Dashboard -> ‘Tools’ -> ‘Forums’ -> ‘Repair Forums’

I am using the default twenty eleven theme.

Can someone please help me with this?

[cornellist]

Hello,

I am currently working on a school project that is in dire need of a adequate forum and I think bbPress would fit the bill perfectly. I am completely new here, I just had one really quick question:

So I read that the dropbox support website forum, https://forums.dropbox.com/ was based on bbPress and I was wondering what it would take to make something as similar as possible to that.

We don’t need social functions, or any other sophisticated integration — we need a forum, login functionality and that’s it.

Could anyone give me some pointers or leads as to how I could accomplish this?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

[5ngua]

Currently the Forum Root is titled Forum Archive by default and there is no way to change it from the back-end. This is still impossible even when the Forum Root is partnered with a wordpress page optimized with a SEO pluggin like All In One SEO or WordPress SEO By Yoast.

So I think I going to modify the code to get this done, but I need your instruction, please help.

And how can I request this possibility as a default feature in the next BBPress realease? I think many people will thank it.

Thanks in advance,
Hung.

Hello,
I have Genesis Prose, and I guess I will have the latest version of the bbpress forum plugin. Here is my site, http://www.unclaimed-funds.org .

I would like to add a forum to the site, but I would like to get rid of the sidebar on the forum page.

Is this possible?

Thank you,

Mark

I’m not very experienced with bbPress. I am trying to make sure my forum works properly by creating a “test” user and trying to post from that account. When I submit the test post, it does not show up at all on the forum. Can anyone please help me with this?

[bbp-fan]

I thought it is possible because I have the default bbPress CSS in use. Nothing special, just the CSS that have probably all bbpress-user. But if it is not possible to find the solution, I will contact you as soon as I’ve finished the site so that I can release it.
Thank you again.
