To be honestly i’ve try just one time with root privilege (local webserver – with wampserver) but maybe is caused by different database.

I can try to move in one database and run again

Not entirely sure where this post should go, so I placed it here.

I setup bbPress along with WordPress to make WordPress the master. However I would like to use the bbPress profile instead of the WordPress profile, but I can’t find where in the code to enable that. Any ideas?

[Anonymous User 7670885]

I’ve try in my local machine.

After first run (user convention) it caused an error and table remain with *_tmp in name (now i not remember specific error – tomorrow i’ll try to run again and publish more detail).

Instead if i go directly to forum all seems to be converted (no error) but all topics (first post) is empty and to see i need to save again (forum and topic – otherwise i can’t see – yes, i’ve run recount but problem still remain). Finally, all category results like a “forum” (and all forums like child forum).

If you glad tomorrow (sorry but now i can’t) i can provide localserver access and you can try directly

@Gautam: ok

PS: I’ve try converter (in trunk) but i’ve found many problem with it (is in trunk – maybe you already know all – i don’t know).

–

Anyway, i hope in a future plugin to convert topic (with replies) in wordpress articles (with comments). It’s very important for a good conversion of my actual website.

Hello folks,

I along with Ben L. aka Nightgunner5, have created a bbPress standalone to plugin converter which already does a good job converting your bbPress forums.

To use it, upload the file bbs2p.php to your server. Now let us assume that / is the place where you have placed the script, /blog/ is the WordPress directory and /forum/ is the bbPress standalone directory. So, you would edit bbs2p.php, scroll down to line 36 and change

define( 'BBS2P_WP_PATH', '' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

define( 'BBS2P_BB_PATH', '../forum/' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

To:

define( 'BBS2P_WP_PATH', 'blog/' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

define( 'BBS2P_BB_PATH', 'forum/' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

Similarly, if you have script and WordPress blog in / and the forum in /forums/, then change those lines to:

define( 'BBS2P_WP_PATH', '' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

define( 'BBS2P_BB_PATH', 'forums/' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

Then run the script and the converter would guide you. Some points to note:

• Needless to mention, if it isn’t your test run, please have a backup. We cannot be held responsible for any data loss.
• Run it on your localhost as the converter is heavy.
• Supports the Subscribe to Topic plugin by _ck_ and bbPress 1.1 alpha+ subscriptions import too. Have that plugin activated if you want to migrate subscriptions from the plugin, else it will check for the alpha version.
• Have the bbPress plugin activated, revert to default themes and disable any other plugins.
• Currently, there are three situations:

  1. You have a new WordPress blog, to which you are migrating to and an established forum. Then, you would go to user migration section first and then proceed to forums, topics, posts migration section. In this process, all your WordPress users would be deleted (well, renamed to another table) and in place of those, bbPress users would be added. A keymaster will be WP admin, bb admin and moderator will be bbPress plugin moderators, rest all would be converted to the default WP role (which can be set in your WordPress settings).
  2. Your WordPress and bbPress user tables are integrated. You don’t need the user migration process and you can directly go to forums, topics, posts migration section. No worries.
  3. You have a established WordPress blog, with a good number of users and can’t afford to lose those. This is currently not supported as it is hard to merge two conflicting user sets.

• After converting, do recounts, delete the script and delete the bbPress standalone section if not needed.

Cheers! Hope that helps.

ps. Special thanks to John James J. for developing the bbPress plugin, without which, of course, this converter wouldn’t have been there.

Darkwold.it: Because comments are own their own, it is not a post type.

studioleland: You can’t.

[Anonymous User 7670885]

This is great

I think is a good point to start my migration (after of this i need only to convert my actual newsboard inside wordpress)

–

Edit: ok, i can migrate some topic to blog thanks to fixed custom post switcher: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-post-type-switcher-broken-after-31 but it don’t convert replies.

Edit your theme’s register.php and it should contain the line <?php do_action('extra_profile_info', $user); ?>. Move it to the place where you want the captcha to be displayed.

You should browse into your active theme directory, if you’re using the default theme i.e. Kakumei, that would be /bb-templates/kakumei/. There, you would find the files register.php and register-success.php. You can edit those. Hope that helps.

Gautam Gupta and Nightgunner5 have made a script for moving bbPress standalone to bbPress plugin. Its available here.

http://code.google.com/p/bbpress-standalone-to-plugin/

Though, an importer will be bundled with the bbPress plugin in the stable release AFAIK.

[justmichael2]

Umm, I can’t get to the bbPress admin page, that’s the whole problem

Just a question for dev.

I hate my actual website and i attend this plugin to migrate to wordpress (+forum).

Just for info please: any eta for converter – bbpress to bbpressPlugin? (i can use alpha in live website but i can’t lost users and actual forums)

Maybe it’s time to start with development?

[tooltrainer]

OK, strike my previous… I see that users can in fact mark items as favorites or subscribe, but only from within the actual topic replies themselves. I was looking for a higher-level icon/button of some kind like I had found previously when poking around in the code.

Now that I know better how it actually work, this will do the basic job. Would be nice to be able to mark actual forums as favorites too though.

Thanks!

Now that I’m looking into this again, I don’t even see a loop-topics.php file so I’m not sure what I was talking about back then. Still, my desire to enable these features is the same.

Try this plugin:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/fix-admin-access/

After you install and activate the plugin then go to bbPress admin page and set User Role Map settings. WordPress administrator should be set as your bbPress admin’s role, probably ‘Key Master’ or ‘Administrator’. Mine was Key Master.

If you don’t know what to set up in other roles (WP Editor, WP Author, WP Contributor, WP Subscriber) I suggest you to set all of them as bbPress member.

Well, it helped for me

I want to customize the text on the registration form page…

… and also the text on the confirm page (once they hit submit on the registration).

I checked register.php, but I didn’t see any text to change there. (it was all PHP code). And I don’t even know where to look for the confirm page.

Please help. Thank you!

[Gautam Gupta]

Andre: It is already in the repo. /branches/plugin/

[tomcat23]

JJJ – I came here looking for the current code and to see if you needed any beta testers. I found the code in the svn and see you are at alpha-2. I can also see that your code is really clean and readable. I’m sure that’s taken a lot of work, so thanks. The proof is in the pudding, and you’ve got you’ve got me dancing around like Bill Cosby here.

Looking forward to seeing this finally released!
