Hi.
Can’t post a link, because the site is under development, and private.
BBPress 2.4.1
WP 2.7.1
Buddypress 1.8.1
When using the forum search, whether from the top search box in the forum body or the side widget, all searches redirect to the front page of the site.
Site is using s2member – but I’m logged in as an admin, so that shouldn’t matter
Permalinks are set to postname
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
ok, so apart from suggesting you re-install bbpress – I’m out of ideas !
OK, all I can suggest is that you try
A re-install bbpress – it is possible it didn’t all download correctly and/or
Changing to a default theme (such as twentytwelve) to see if that fixes, if so, then contact your theme provider
After that I’m out of ideas I’m afraid !
ok, plan B !
Try this for me
Bbpress sidebar fix
Deactivate bbpress tweaks
Dashboard>plugins>bbpress tweaks>deactivate
Go into widgets
Dashboard>appearance>widgets
And look at the bottom of the left hand side. You’ll see an “inactive sidebar”, with your entries on
Below this is an “inactive widgets”
Drag all the entries from the inactive sidebar to the inactive widgets area.
This them allows wordpress to delete the sidebar
I normally log out and in again at this stage – probably not needed, but I’ve never bothered to check
Then basically reverse the above
Re-enable bbpress tweaks
You see the bbpress sidebar returns
Drag the entries back from the inactive widgets area to the sidebar
If that doesn’t work, come back I have a plan C !
MySQL error log doesnt give anything special. All errors i see are the same for other databases, generic types.
Kunena3.php. Tried long time ago with Kunena2 too, but didnt work.
Updated Kunena forum to the last, just to test. WP is updated to the last.
Joomla is made locally with Akeeba but dont think it has something to do with problem.
If i only knew what makes problem. One or few Kunena topics deleted. Not big deal in forums, if you have hundreds and thousands of them. But as it is now all is black hole for me.
Thanks for the update, if I get time I might take a peek at the ‘Kiss Portal’ mod for phpBB, it would be nice to finally get your forums imported into bbPress after soooooo much time. It took me a good 6 months to get my original site from phpBB to bbPress and now I write all the forum converters 😉
Do not check the following setting:
Purge Previous Import Purge all information from a previously attempted import
Do check the following setting:
Start Over Start a fresh conversion from the beginning
There is something weird going on with the above that ‘Purge Previous Import’ setting that I am looking into, it works for some and not others and is really bugging me 🙁
In between imports if it doesn’t finish and you need to try again you will manually have to delete the imported users from the WordPress User admin panel and reset bbPress’ forums as per https://codex.bbpress.org/reset-forums/.
Awesome everyone, there are still a couple of the regex expressions I need to fix, otherwise it would be commited to /trunk of bbPress now 😉 hopefully I will get these fixed tomorrow. 🙂
@stagger-lee Thanks for taking another look at this, most appreciated. 🙂
I have a couple of ideas that I will try tomorrow and that should also include the removal of the hard-coded jos_ prefix.
Out of curiousity did you use Kunena2.php or Kunena3.php this time round?
I have gone through those steps a number of times already, including removing the membership plugin. This membership plugin is not specific to bbpress. It has no awareness of topics and users and such. It is to restrict access to wordpress pages and posts.
The way the forum is protected is by this code: https://gist.github.com/strangerstudios/1633637
What it basically does is determine if it is going to show forum content or not and then either not show it at all and redirect to another page (in my case the home page) or continue and show whatever the forum is showing. It does not discriminate between topics or replies or whatnot from what I can tell.
Again, disabling that bit, or disabling the membership plugin as a whole does not make a difference.
Walking through all forum roles: blocked shows a 404 page, all the others show the content except the first post (of type topic)
Walking through all wordpress roles: only administrator will show the first post (of type topic)
@jaredatch/ has an update for this plugin that hasn’t been pushed live yet.
Grab the link via this post https://wordpress.org/support/topic/not-working-in-bbpress-24?replies=5#post-4687693
There were some instructions here
https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/
But they are out of date
Your forum link didn’t work, but if you post again, I’ll take a quick look to see if teher are any quick and easy changes you could make
Good to see this!
Gonna try to convert my forum next week. (have to duplicate current database to ensure if anything goes wrong I still have the backup ) .
My forum stats : “405019 Posts in 13948 Topics by 8112 Members”.
I’m running on my own dedicated server, intel xeon + 8gb ram. I wonder how long it gonna take.
Wordpress + BbPress + BuddyPress + (WPMU?).
my very own Arts social network perhaps?
😀 Congratulation for all good work.
Regards.
P.S.:
I use the Standard bbPress CCS.
Hey guys!
I have a little test site running for fun here.
As you can see, when you click on the forums page, bbPress is extremely light and does not fit in with the theme I am using.
Can I get any instructions on how to make bbPress sue the same style as my WordPress theme?
I am not extremely familiar with coding, so simple instructions would be the best!
Thanks!
All first posts on an area are “topics” and the subsequent ones are replies, so it is correctly doing that.
These are called custom post types
User levels (eg admin) would/should not affect this
I suspect the issue is in your memberships plugin – even though you’ve tried. Do you anywhere define what is shown to users? if you can find the word “replies” anywhere then look for adding “topics” as well.
I’d suggest that you add a new user (yourself but under another name) and then play with the settings for both wordpress and bbpress. I presume you are aware that when you have created a user, if you go back into edit then you’ll see a bbpress role for each user. So play with both of those and see what displays topics and replies and then come back.
–
It’s only a small thing – basically. Nevertheless, since a few days I am on experiment, only to enlarge the font size of the links “forum-title” and “topic title”. 🙁 And only these two! (no other font-size in the forum) I’m not successful. Despite the use of Firebug I do not find the correct place in the CSS.
I also do not understand what in this line
# bbpress-forum div.bbp-forum-title h3,
the “h3” is. My “h3” is much larger defined, but is not taken.
Which “h3” is meant and where it is defined?
Please help! I’ll go crazy 🙁
ok, I’d try installing WP-tweaks again.
You should see a bbpress sidebar in the dashboard
dashboard>appearance>widgets
and it will be on the bottom right.
Populate that with some widgets and it should appear.
If not come back and I’ll give you another solution
The issue is that in loop-single-reply the variable $user_id is not set. I’ve just written a plugin for this, which should work – it does on my site, but I am trying to work out why it doesn’t on another who also has buddypress.
You installing it would help me determine if it is me !
Download to your pc, and then upload to the plugins
bbp topic count plugin
or crack it open to see what code I used
it looks like it fixed it, but i’ve added a few more replies and the counters have stayed the same
yes i’m using bbpress, buddy press, i have also installed buddypress achievements all latest versions
ok, you would easily see it in usermeta table if it was there.
would suggest that is why it is coming up a 0
can you try
Dashboard>tolls>forums
and then the tab ‘repair forums’
and then click “count topics for each user” and “count replies for each user”
and see if that fixes it
what versions of wordpress and bbpress are you on
do you have buddypress also installed?
No, absolutely same problem. Stuck at the same place.
Plus error with that hard coded jos_ in PHP, but that one is easy to fix. I type my own database prefix.
presume you mean this is the piece of code you’ve tried?
Enable Visual Editor
have you tried this plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/
