Hello and good day!
It seems I keep getting a missing css file when I do a speed check, this file is missing: wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/bbp-twentyten/css/bbpress.css?ver=2.4.1
This is my website that gets the above error, but the forum is working fine: http://motion-master-templates.com
Thank you for the time and please let me know what I can do to fix this. š
Host says they can’t rise timeout or memory limit. I’d rather not have to do this locally, I’ve never done anything like that and I frankly don’t want to spend the time learning and trying… I’ll give the importer another go later today, see if I get a better result.
Hi!
I’m a new bee at this and I recently installed bbpress, but where can I enable “create new thread/topic” for my forum participants? Seem IƤm missing something very fundamental here.
As it is now I can only create new threads when I’m logged in as admin.
Would be very thankful for a hint in this matter.
Hello
It took me some time but i finally have figured out that dynamic roles that are getting assigned to users when “Auto Role” is disabled are being unset before bp_forum_enforce_blocked is triggered.
This results in 404 for users.
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'bbp_set_current_user_default_role', 7 ); managed to fix it for me but i am not sure what is un-setting dynamically assigned roles and if my fix does not have any down-site.
Hope my input helps.
Ticket created(http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2452#ticket) please delete if forum topic unnecessary.
Thanks,

Hi,
I would like to report a bug.
In a multisite environment, the widgets for BBPress are only shown to super-admins in the widget area. Subsite-administrators are unable to see the widgets.
Kinds regards,
Sven
This what we have in the converter.php file:
if ( ! ini_get( 'safe_mode' ) ) {
set_time_limit( 0 );
ini_set( 'memory_limit', '256M' );
ini_set( 'implicit_flush', '1' );
ignore_user_abort( true );
}
Send that to them and ask in particular the first two, timeout & memory limit.
You can download something like this http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html
(There are heaps of these depending on Mac, PC or Linux https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_stack)
They pretty much work out of the box and you just install WordPress locally, export your punBB database to import locally etc.
Your other two topics there are ‘super sticky’ and they will show in every forum list, change those to ‘sticky’ and they will only be stuck in their own forum.
https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/#adding-a-topic
You can add tags for organizing your Topics, and you can make the post Sticky or Super Sticky.
- Sticky posts will stick to top of the Forum which it is in.
- Super Sticky posts will stick to the top of all Forums.
I tried stopping and starting again. Most of the time that did the trick. Not this time, it seemed.
Can you tell me exactly what I should ask my webhost to raise? I wouldn’t know how to do a conversion locally, so I’m really hoping this’ll work.
For now, I removed the imported users manually.
Thanks again for you help, Stephen!
I cannot reproduce this WordPress editors can see the dashboard fine with these roles assigned:
- WordPress Role: Editor
- bbPress Role: Participant
Also the error text you have above has nothing to do with this, you only get this error if you run the repair tool ‘Repair BuddyPress Group Forum relationships’ and you do not have BuddyPress installed.
There is no answer here yet, but presumable in time there will be

Hey,
On my bbpress forum pages I have a “Post” button which leads to a form, on this form I do not want the Forum drop box, Instead I want it to say the forum the button was clicked on e.g If the page they clicked the button was called Discussion it say “Forum: Discussion”.
I have a var call ‘id’ which is carried via the url e.g “www.website.com/add-topic?id=Discussion” and is collected on the form page using the $_GET method.
Now I can echo that using php. but I can seem to link it to the form.
I know the drop box uses bbp_get_form_topic_forum()… but is there away of setting it?
Like bbp_set_form_topic_forum = $id?
Anything would be great help!
Could the database port have any effect?
Yes, make sure that is also correct, the default is 3306 but your web host may use a different port.
You could also check what your SMF config is by checking the database values in eg. /public_html/smf/Settings.php
eg.
########## Database Info ##########
$db_type = 'mysql';
$db_server = 'localhost';
$db_name = 'smf_database_name';
$db_user = 'mysql_user_name';
$db_passwd = 'mysecretpassword';
$ssi_db_user = '';
$ssi_db_passwd = '';
$db_prefix = 'smf_';
$db_persist = 0;
$db_error_send = 1;
Thanks for the info JJJ it is greatly appreciated!
Did you try the Stop wait a few seconds and Start thing again?
It seems to work now when I set the number of rows very low (10) and give it plenty of delay (5 seconds).
Now the conversion process seems to have stopped when thereās about eight thousand Replies left to convertā¦ I donāt see the spinning thing anymore indicating progress, but get the same time limit warning.
I suspect both these are related to your web host is limiting us trying to bump the memory and timeouts it might be a good idea to contact your web host to see if they can at least ‘temporarily’ bump these for you until you have got your forum imported.
Another option is to setup a local WAMP/MAMP/XAMMP install and try it locally on your PC.
Resetting the forums does not remove all the imported users, by the way. Is that a problem?
I’ll take a look at why this isn’t working as it should.
Should I select āStart a fresh conversion from the beginningā or āPurge all information from a previously attempted importā or both?
The ‘Start a fresh converesion’ will force the bbPress import to start from the beginning rather than resume from where it left off if it didn’t finish the import last time.
Also, as mentioned, posts/Replies are all assigned to me, instead of the users who made them.
Until the import is finished and the repair tools are run to ‘recount’ everything this can be the case until all the ‘metadata’ is sync’d up.
I suggest you update WordPress to 3.6.1 and bbPress 2.4.1 first and you would need to find out from the UAM plugin author if it supports the ‘Dynamic Roles’ for users that is implemented in bbPress.
Not exactly a bbPress problem; it’s a warning put in place to alert you that some other plugin is trying to load the current user’s information before WordPress has fully initialized (something bbPress, or any other plugin) cannot plan for or play nicely with.
You’ll want to look through your logs, research what plugin is triggering this notice in what circumstance, and reach out to the author.
Hello,
Where do I go to change a users Forum Role? If I open up the user in the dashboard I see no option for Forum Role. Just Role with no option for Contributor or Keymaster. When I browse to the user’s bbpress page I see no option for Forum Role either. I appreciate your support locating where this field is edited. Thanks.
Now the conversion process seems to have stopped when there’s about eight thousand Replies left to convert… I don’t see the spinning thing anymore indicating progress, but get the same time limit warning.
Also, as mentioned, posts/Replies are all assigned to me, instead of the users who made them.
Solved it. It’s a incompatibility issue with Another WordPress Classifieds Plugin (AWPCP). I deactivate AWPCP and bbPress started work again.
Anybody know of a way I can assign posts to authors by their ip? All my imported posts are being assigned to the admin š but they have the correct ip’s attached to them. I did opt to import users with the posts.
WP Version: 3.6.0
bbPress Version: 1.8.1
I’m importing from phpBB3 and yes I synced everything in phpbb3 first and then in bbPress after š I am also having other issues that I’m trying to get support for in another thread (posts only import up to five months ago)
Hi, I’m creating a new website and I installed bbpress. At first it worked, then it simply started showing “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.” when I try to change the plugin settings in the administration. Also, the Forum option in the sidebar of the administration didn’t show anymore. I uninstalled the bbpress and installed again. It worked. About one hour later I tried to access the forum settings and the same problem was happening. I tried again to reinstall bbpress but this time didn’t worked.
I saw cases where the message “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.” was shown in the whole administration, but didn’t find a case where it was shown only in the pages related to bbpress. Also the forum works in the front-end, but I’m unable to create a topic, showing “ERROR: You do not have permission to create new topics.”
I’m using WordPress 3.6.1(in PT-BR) and bbpress 2.4.1.
Well some editor reported me this, then I’ve checked the error log and I’ve found this:
[13-Oct-2013 21:22:03] WordPress database error Table ‘diytech1_wor5.zhb_bp_groups_groupmeta’ doesn’t exist for query SELECT group_id FROM zhb_bp_groups_groupmeta WHERE meta_key = ‘forum_id’ AND meta_value = ‘2874’; made by require_once(‘wp-admin/admin.php’), do_action(‘load-tools_page_bbp-repair’), call_user_func_array, bbp_admin_repair_handler, call_user_func, bbp_admin_repair_group_forum_relationship
Since the last update on bbpress editors cant login on wp-admin, they see a blank page.
How to fix it?
Now I have disabled Kiss Portal, purged the cache in phpBB3, resyncronized in phpBB3, imported to bbPress, and resynced there and still upon import only get posts up to five months ago.
Anybody have a clue what the issue might be or know of a resource that might show me how I can retrieve my posts from phpBB3 into bbPress by hand?
It seems to work now when I set the number of rows very low (10) and give it plenty of delay (5 seconds).
The conversion process is about halfway through the Replies now, but all the posts – so far anyway – are assigned to me, instead of the users who originally created Topics and posted those Replies.
