Hello,
I am a complete beginner and have just created http://careerkokusai.com/ using WP3.9.2. and BBP2.5.4. with 2011 theme.
Though I managed to put “Forum” on the menu (in Japanese !, 4th from the left), there is no link at all. I have created one test forum and a topic but it is nowhere to be seen !
Sorry to ask such a beginner’s question and thanks in advance.
I did actually. I tested on Tracks WordPress theme which happens to be free yet awesome theme. But on the forum topic page, for mysterious reasons, only the first post from the topic is visible. Posts from second and onwards don’t show up at all. A programmer would probably fix this in a moment but I’m not really a coder, so I’m looking for something else.
Thanks for your help.
We have a rather large performance increase coming up in bbPress 2.6 that will address most of your issues, primarily it relates to the sort order of topics as we have a slow database join when we need to sort the topic order based on the latest reply.
After you click stop and then start it should just continue on from where it left off.
The issue will be though is that any topics in that range of (13601 – 13700) that were not imported before the conversion stopped will not be imported.
These types of faults are typically due to some encoding issue in that post. Sometimes this is from an encoding conversion to UTF8 that was done at some point. Whatever it is, it’s nearly impossible to detect without setting a time limit on queries and bisecting the difference until we can narrow down the offending entry, and skip it. Because queries could naturally take a long time, and because it results in missed data, I’m not comfortable with this approach.
The workaround is to find and delete the offending reply which is time consuming and tricky but the only way at this stage.
Here’s how I do debug this and find the offending topics/replies:
- Once the import hangs, click stop, take a note of where it was up to, e.g. Converting 11,299 – 11,300
- Click start again and the import will continue from where it left off
- If it hangs again, take note of where it was up to again
- Once finished make a fresh copy of the source database
- Now drop all the rows in the database that are not in the range of rows that failed during import
- Perform a fresh import using this database with the “Rows Limit” setting set to
1
- The import should hang on the offending topic/reply
- Again, take note of the topic/reply it was up to
- Click stop, click start again to continue on
- Once you have your list of offenders and the import has finished delete these rows from this database and test again to make sure it completes without hanging
- Now back in your full database (presumably a copy of the original) delete these same rows from the database and run the import again
bbPress is tested and works on PHP 5.2.4 and later https://bbpress.org/about/requirements/
We ensure that bbPress (and the same for WordPress) is to work 100% on PHP 5.2.4 and up, thus including PHP 5.3.x, 5.4.x & 5.5.x.
We have also begun experimental testing testing with PHP 5.6 alpha and HHVM.
bbpress does exactly what your talking about.
the only thing you want is just to display the published date , while not showing latest activity at all??
So far, so good! But is it supposed to show the label if the user hasn’t put anything in the field?
Also, something maybe to note in the description (if you haven’t already): In the Profile Fields, the Base (Primary) group has a primary, required label and field that it allows you to edit and rename, but it appears that is always the user’s “nick name”. There was confusion when I was testing because I’d originally put that one as “Gamertag” when testing, and all of a sudden everyone was showing their username the same as their gamertag. At first I thought we still had a problem, but then I figured it out.
It looks great!
Now if you’re feeling really ambitious you could include the option to add the @mention automatically, so it pulls it from the users’ profile. I certainly don’t think any but a teensy fraction of my forum users will make the effort to set it themselves, but at least I’ve got mine now with the help of your plugin! 😀
Awesome work, and I hope someday to be able to get in and play around with plugin code.
yeah i still dont get why bbpress doesnt do that. I knew my bbpress on my local site did it before, or maybe i was messing with some other forum…
but yeah i found this site does what you need to.
click reply and the reply form goes up.

do you have anything??
Hey great – thanks for doing all that testing – it really helps.
I have another thought, let me work on it and I’ll come back !
To add to the above post, I just tested with default theme and all plugins of except bbPress, BuddyPress and bbp buddypress profile information and the issue persists. Just wanted to rule out any conflicts, since I hadn’t done the first rule of testing plugins.
Ok, I created the second Label with the same name and it does the same thing.
Then, just as a test, I created another Profile Field with a different name, “Gamertag2”, labeling it in the plugin. To further test, I created a separate Profile Group and made another Profile Field in there, “@mention”. I went into the plugin and labeled that as the fourth one. All the labels show up under the profiles, but none of the info, even though everything is checked to show in the plugin.
It would be SO awesome to have this work. I searched for quite awhile today to find something, and found a thread by Jacob Jacoby from like five years ago talking about integrating BuddyPress and bbPress profile fields! So it’s well overdue to have something for non-coders, and that would be sweet for it to work.
I’ll keep testing whatever you ask, so just let me know how I can help.
Edit: I kept it all set up, so you can see it at the same link above.
Hello guys! Happy to find this thread, and more than happy to help 🙂
I have a running site and have just tested this. The Label is showing, but the user-entered information for the label is not.
As you can see in the following link, the label is “Gamertag” and if you scroll to AddiCt3d 2CHa0s you will see no gamertag (item) listed, even though it is filled in the profile field.
In settings I was very careful to check and see if there were any spaces, and even that the first letter was capitalized, etc. in both the Name in the plugin and the Name in the BuddyPress profile field and it still won’t work. In settings I’ve elected that both the Label and Item are to be displayed.

I am using the most current versions of WordPress, bbPress and BuddyPress.
Let me know if I can be of any more assistance!
Well there is something else going on, disable all your plugins except bbPress and switch to the Twenty Fourteen theme and do some tests to see if the ‘Voice Count’ and ‘Post Counts’ increment correctly.
Hi guys, I’m pretty new(bie) on WordPress, hope some1 could help me.
I’ve created a little test site here: http://www.elite-force.it/test
Then, I’ve installed bbpress and I’ve created menu entries with those magical-fantastic short codes.
Everything seems going fine, of course it will need some CSS adjustment but I don’t panic on that… else way I panic because I can’t reach profile page…
My forum is: http://www.elite-force.it/test/forum/
And profile for my user should be: http://www.elite-force.it/test/forums/user/goose/
When I go to my profile page, something strange happen… It seems that bbpress use my homepage php to build the page.. of course result in a home-similar, with a “THESE POSTS ARE BY: ” on top and any other infos…
I read that bbpress look for page.php if there is no bbpress.php on theme root folder, but if I also create a copy of my page.php or post.php doesn’t fix the problem.
Is because that template uses dynamic pages? there is no solution? I mean, There is no way to override bbpress page settings and make a different view for the profile page?
Please… help those noob
I’m attempting to log into the codex to help with documentation. I always show as anonymous on the codex pages and the log in link goes to BuddyPress. I log in there and end up on the BuddyPress support forum instead of being redirected back. If I come back manually and refresh the page, I am still not logged in.
I have tried logging in on WordPress.org to see if that carries over, but not luck. Obviously, I’m logged into the support forum now to post this.
I’ve also tried clearing cookies and tested with multiple browsers with no change either.
ok, that’s most of the way there
what the code does next is to look in wp_bp_xprofile_data for the value where data type 20 (‘city’) and the user_ID exist.
select VALUE from $xdata where ID = '$xpid' AND user_id = '$user_id'
so either the $user_ID is not correct or there is no data in there
I can cut another test version to look further, but in case I can shortcut it, arr you any good at being able to look at the mtsql database?
If so I’ll come back with further instructions, if not, I’ll cut a further test.
Hello,
I have installed the GD bbPress attachment plugin but the attachment button is not appearing. I have tried researching into it but cannot work out why it is not working. Please help!
Wordpress version is 3.9.2 and bbPress version is 2.5.4.
http://www.wholefoodharmony.com/forums/forum/test2
Many thanks!
So, this is my forum http://mmo4teen.com/forum/topic/still-another-testing/
and as you can see. The quote color is not very good. Does anyone know any css code I can use to make it look better, like normal grey in other forum ?
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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
ok, I am trying to help you, but there are thousands of wordpress themes, and I have no idea what sidebar 2 and 3 are supposed to do.
which would you like to achieve
a full width forum or show both sidebar 2 and sidebar 3, and if the latter can you create a testpage with just some text on and post the url, sop that I can see what it should look like.
Well, heres the deal, the “freshness” ( I changed to latest activity) on http://www.astronomertalk.com, is way off.
http://www.astronomertalk.com
As you can see, some things say no latest activity when there is, and some just have the wrong dates.
This seems to happen every few days on the forum, but I recently realized it may be connected to this error that pops up on the page for a minute or so then disappears for a few hours:
Fatal error: Cannot call overloaded function for non-object in /home/vaghar123/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp.php on line 529
I contacted go-daddy and they said the error message had to do with a plugin, but could not help further. Google seems to point that its a common problem with Godaddy customers with no solution. (yes I have web hosting from them).
If anyone has any ideas here please post,
Best,
CB
well it keeps popping up every few hours for about a minute then going. It also seems to be messing up with the “freshness” tab (latest activity on our site). Does anyone know what plugin might be causing it?
I thought you would like to know my hosting provider persevered and created a procedure to resolve this issue. It was….
=== From the support engineer ===
1. Deactivate the bbPress plugin.
2. Find the database version in the wp_options table and reset that back to “1”. I could have picked an actual WordPress database version (and probably something as simple as the most recent), but I knew this worked from the testing on the development site.
3. Once the database version was manually set back to 1, I had to navigate to: https://zippe.biz/wp-admin/upgrade.php. This forced WordPress to run all of the database upgrades required to get from version 1 to the latest version of the database (27916).
4. Once the upgrades had completed I needed to reset the account password for our account. I noticed this was required on both the staging site and the live site, so my hunch is it may have reset some keys. You’ll likely need to do this for all of your accounts as well.
5. After the password had been reset I was able to login and the dashboard loaded normally.
Up i can’t fix the problem only the forum page load in full width, the childs load with right bar themeplate
index of the forum, its working fine
