Hi,
the content beneath Latest replies is aligned centered. Is it possible to align the text left? What custom-css I can use to achieve this?
I asked the support of the theme I use (Avada), but they tell me to turn you.
I’m using wordpress 4.6, bbPress-version 2.5.10-6063.
The link to my site is: http://psd2.nl/forum/
Thanks very much for your help!
Best regards,
Oeroes
one best way.ive done with my forum. All other ways are not working
-Update phpbb to the latest version
-use the BBpress Alpha 2.6
-import the data from phpbb
-do the fixes down under in separatly ( run sql in 5 steps, begin with the first)
/* Get all posts with wrong author and correspondent right author from translator table */
create table TMP_ORPHANS as
select
wp_posts.ID,
wp_posts.post_author,
wp_bbp_converter_translator.value_id real_author,
IFNULL(wp_posts.post_date, NULL) post_date,
IFNULL(wp_posts.post_date_gmt, NULL) post_date_gmt,
wp_posts.post_content,
CASE
WHEN wp_posts.post_type = 'reply'
THEN (SELECT tmposts.post_title from wp_posts as tmposts where tmposts.id = wp_posts.post_parent)
ELSE wp_posts.post_title
END post_title,
wp_posts.post_excerpt,
wp_posts.post_status,
wp_posts.comment_status,
wp_posts.ping_status,
wp_posts.post_password,
wp_posts.post_name,

wp_posts.menu_order,
wp_posts.post_type,
wp_posts.post_mime_type,
wp_posts.comment_count,
( select wp_postmeta.meta_value
from wp_postmeta
where
wp_postmeta.meta_key = '_bbp_author_ip' and
wp_postmeta.post_id = wp_posts.id
) user_ip
from wp_posts
left join wp_users on wp_posts.post_author = wp_users.id
left join wp_bbp_converter_translator on wp_posts.post_author = wp_bbp_converter_translator.meta_value
where
wp_posts.post_type in ('forum', 'reply', 'topic') and
(wp_users.id is null or
wp_users.id = 1) and
wp_bbp_converter_translator.value_type = 'user' and
wp_bbp_converter_translator.meta_key = '_bbp_old_user_id';
/* Do this to be able to create indexes later – some may not work */
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS modify column post_date datetime default NULL;
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS modify column post_date_gmt datetime default NULL;
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS modify column post_modified datetime default NULL;
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS modify column post_modified_gmt datetime default NULL;
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS modify column user_ip varchar(40);
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS modify column post_title varchar(255);
/* we create indexes to speed up the update process */
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS ADD INDEX(post_date);
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS ADD INDEX(post_author);
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS ADD INDEX(real_author);
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS ADD INDEX(user_ip);
ALTER TABLE TMP_ORPHANS ADD INDEX(post_title);
/* Revert bad authors to good authors */
UPDATE
wp_posts INNER JOIN TMP_ORPHANS
ON wp_posts.id = TMP_ORPHANS.id
set wp_posts.post_author = TMP_ORPHANS.real_author
where wp_posts.post_type in ('reply', 'topic') ;
/* Drop TMP table */
DROP TABLE TMP_ORPHANS;
The result is a compleet database with the good relation between post and author
Not totally sure exactly what you are after, but my style pack plugin includes a latest activity widget that sounds like it might do what you are after
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
WAMP or server installation ?
ok, suggest
You deactivate, delete and re-install bbpress
If that doesn’t work
It could be a theme or plugin issue
Plugins
Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.
If those don’t then either maybe corrupt wordpress/server issue.
Hmmm… Instead of my testing this I’ll let you:
What about a word without a hyphen? Does discussiontopic work?
I can’t remember if there is a limitation like this or not, I’ll dig around some more and find out for sure later 🙂
Interested in a solution for this as well. I would like AJAX Tags, and Tags required. An existing plugin recommendation would be great, or if anyone wants to do some code mod, I’m game to test it out 😉
Can’t immediately see any issue.

Then come back
After removing almost half of the Drupal 6 spam and blocked uses, I still have over 250K users to import to WP/bbPress.
I run a prior test import for the topics, and it seemed to run fine. But importing users one at a time hangs after every ~one hundred users. I have to manually click stop and start at the Converter Admin page every few minutes. If I can’t find other solutions, I might want to install a Browser addon to click stop and start for me every 3 minutes when I’m away. Otherwise, I’m at 2500 users now and I still have 247K users to go! It won’t finish for weeks.
Suggestions? Thanks.
suggest you go back to basics and try :

Hi,
I was hoping someone can offer me a way to delete this topic “what is your favorite movie of all time” it was a test topic and was filled with 322,222 spam replies. I cant delete from admin because I get internal server error. Can you guide me in deleting from database via ccpanel?
Thank you
Hi Pascal. I tried renaming the folder to bbpress.old and then installing the latest version of bbPress, but the admin panel still said that it was on the previous pervion of bbPress. I’d be okay with doing a proper uninstall of bbPress and then doing a clean install, but will that wipe out my bbPress database tables? I need to be able to do this without destroying my community.
bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

I just set up my new forum for testing and I have found a strange issue with breadcrumbs. I am new to bbpress and could use some guideance.
I am sending people to check out the forum at http://www.themagicinpixels.com/forum-testing
When they click into a post (for example)
http://www.themagicinpixels.com/forums/topic/rondaxe-fire-tower/#post-106747
Then click the forums link in the breadcrumbs, it takes them to
Forums
How can I fix this?
First and foremost, let me go ahead and apologize if this isn’t the right place for this.
With the latest major WP update, it seems that my forums have become broken. When viewing a topic or thread, the entire site’s theme isn’t loaded, resulting in a white screen with very minimal content on it. I’ve switched out themes to see if maybe it was just a theme issue, and the results were the same.
Some information about my site:
Forum URL: http://cosplay-central.com/forum/
Wordpress Version: 4.6.1
bbPress Version: 2.5.10
Current Theme: Esteem
You’re welcome all. Happy to be able to help 🙂
@wasanajones You can use get_the_excerpt( $se_post ) or just post_excerpt property of the WP_Post object:
Edit the last callback from previous code to go as this:
add_filter('bbp_get_form_topic_content', function( $body ) {
global $se_post;
if( $se_post ) {
return $se_post->post_excerpt;
}
return $body;
});
I did not test this but I am sure it should work.
Best,
Samuel
I have the exact same issue. Using WP 4.6.1 with twenty sixteen theme + bbpress and no other plug-ins on a local install for testing.
I can create forums and topics. However, I cannot post any comments and keep getting the following error message: ERROR: Are you sure you wanted to do that?
Have tried repeated uninstall/install of both WP and BBP. Same result.
Maybe to help out a bit:
We run
PHP7.0-fpm (latest stable)
Nginx 1.10 (latest stable)
Ubuntu 16.04 (latest stable)
WordPress 4.6.1
bbPress 2.5.11
bbPress Advanced Statistics 1.4.02
bbPress NewTopics 1.0.1
bbPress No CAPTCHA reCAPTCHA 1.0
BuddyPress Version 2.7.2
BuddyPress Activity Plus 1.6.4
Buddypress Messages Spam Blocker 2.5
BuddyPress Profile Tabs 1.6.1
Thank you Robin for your response. It’s much appreciated. I actually had already tried that route exactly as you have described plus I probably didn’t make my question clear on the private part.
Here is the link to my test page of forums – http://imaginationfoundry.com/forumhome/
I made “Pasteboard Heaven” a category and then packet of fun with PH its parent. Even though I chose Alternate on BPQ my site is creating an indent instead of bringing it down one notch on its on line.
Regarding the private portion I meant I didn’t want the private groups to display on my main forum index page.
Any thoughts on why my bbpress is creating an indent?
Any thoughts on how to hide th private groups from displaying on my forum page?
Thank you Robin or any others.

Then come back
I’m currently working on a project for a client who wants to have the latest reply from any topic in a forum show up on the main bbpress page under the forum name. Is there a way to get this reply from the database using either built in functions or a wp_query. I also need to show the persons avatar, name, and when it was posted. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Dev site is at http://realestateinvesting.how/topics/. I can’t tell you exactly what version of bbpress they are using as the client hired a developer before me who hid the plugins unless your at a user level higher than admin. WordPress version is 4.5
Something has gone wonky and suddenly none of the original posts in my topics are visible. You can see all of the replies and make a reply.
bbPress 2.5.10-6063
I’m running the latest version of WordPress and Buddypress.
Thank you very much for the quick reply!
I’m going to look into the information that you have provided and test it out later this week.
by default, Private Forums and topics can be viewed by logged in users. Hidden Forums and topics are only for Admins.
but in my forum, Private Forums and topics can only be seen by admins. when a user enters a private forum, he/she can’t see the topics.
what’s with this behaviour? is this a bug? this is a very basic feature how come it’s not functioning properly?
i have the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress, and have tried it with the default themes.
site –> http://hoops.ph
Hello everyone,
I installed BBPress earlier this week and managed to get some customization etc. But what i’m struggling with is getting the topics to show under the forum on the forum page.
I would like to see the structure of the forums and under the forums the latest topics in this forum. I have searched hours and hours on the internet where some people had succes on this but i couldn’t implement it myself becouse the lack of experience in PHP.
Can someone please help me how i do this?
