O no Stephen. For Kunena converting i used this script from this topic here. Worked OK. Just saying if someone hits the wall and cannot wait anymore, to test this commercial plugin.
As it is Joomla to WP converting this plugin is more then usefull for plenty of other things, not just forum.
You people if you dont mind paying little over 50 € you can try this converter:
Kunena add-on
I would not advertise commercial plugin here if i not tested theirs K2 to WordPress converter. It is simply brilliant. Imported absolte everything, custom fields, attachments, dates, page views, and aranged whole WordPress so that i didnt have any work to do with organizing content.
Hey,
I try to give you an example:
It is for anonymous posting:
User A enters the name “abc” and the mail address “test@web.com
Now user B comes and want to enter the name “abc” as well but since he enters another email address,for example “hello@web.com”, he can´t take the name “abc”.
Once User A entered its data, name and email belong together.
Hope its clear now:-)
Thanks
Except for the default BBCode [b], [i], [u], [img], [url] etc the vBulletin importer only has [quote], [mention], [youtube] BBCodes added at this time. You would need to manually edit your topics and replies for any SoundCloud embeds.
To test this any further I will need your vBulletin version you importing from so I can take a closer look, firstly to see if I have a copy of a vBulletin ‘version xyz’ to test against and then to see if I can see any reason why it would not be importing everything correctly.
Not sure if this parameter is there ie set or just blank in buddypress
However you can test if empty – empty meaning not set or set to 0 or set to “”
by changing
echo 'Location: ' . $user_location;
to
if (!empty($user_location)) {echo 'Location: ' . $user_location; }
Hi, I am using the latest versions of both WP and BBPress.
My problems are that when I try to add stuff to my style.css, my BBPress pages just don’t seem to follow them…
Here is an example:
>> Remove menu/nav bar and search form from all pages (style.css)
/* Remove nav bar and search form */
.page #nav-bar {
display: none;
}
.page #s {
display: none;
}
The code works on all other pages (BuddyPress ones included), just not any BBPress pages..
Does anyone have any ideas as to why?
I am no coder or expert so this has totally thrown me lol.
I’m not sure of the exact issue you are having a problem with!
The snippet of code you have looks correct via https://codex.bbpress.org/enable-visual-editor/
I have done a fair bit of testing of WordPress v3.9/v3.9.1 and bbPress v2.5.3 compatability with the above snippet to ensure things are not broken with the new TinyMCE v4.0.x in WordPress v3.9.
I have also used this plugin to test the above also https://wordpress.org/plugins/tinymce-advanced/
I’m running bbPress on my site and it is currently integrated with both BuddyPress and OptimizePress. Right now, only Admins can view Voices. If a non-admin tries to view a voice, it’s just a blank page essentially with the ability to reply.
I’ve test all the bbPress roles and even Keymasters can’t view topics. Only if I change their account role to Admin.
Any ideas?
hi, i cant edit my posts. i am an administrator and each time i try to edit a post i get a blank bbpress page with only this error:
“Sorry, there were no forum topics found.”
my edit link is like this:
http://www.mydomain.com/community/topic/test-editing/edit/
also, all user roles get the same error.
I’ll get the test site up and get back with you. Thanks.

Hey thanks for continuing to test – really appreciated it !
on the settings page – I can’t replicate this – I just tried a new install, and whatever combination of activate I use in the general settings, they still save ok. I am not sure what to suggest next – let me have a think.
For the random words, I’ll take a look later today and fix.
Other error (important) to correct
If in the fields as in the image I write random words, the plugin stops working and all the forums are visible for all
Clarification: I am glad of this plugin, this plugin seems to give me everything I was wondering, it looks really great.
I’m just putting it to the test to help the developer. Great plugin.
You whrote:
and another thought – have you been into settings to set up the groups? Dashboard>settings>private groups
It may be that I’ve not allowed for this – so if you have just downloaded the plugin and gone straight into setting up a page it might fail – I’d need to test, but please let me know.
—————-
exact, I did not set the groups, now I proceed.
a few non-active function of WampServer, probably.a few non-active function of WampServer, probably. But I can not know what is. I now send the online site, and let you know.

‘Sorry for my english. ‘ – do not apologise your English is excellent !
Ok, I have just re-tested and I do not get that issue – I can create pages and posts fine.
You could just try deleting and re-installing the plugin just to eliminate any load issues – unless you have just downloaded it, maybe download the latest version from my website so that we are both on version 1.4.
Then maybe we should try to eliminate plugin and theme conflicts
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, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
Come back and let me know.
If you’re not seeing settings>forums in the reading/writing list then either your install is faulty or you have a conflict – these can cause parts of the backend to not display/go missing.
The easiest way to check would be to disable all plugins except bbp and switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve. If it all show up ok in that then either theme or plugin related, and you can start to work out which. However you may not want to do that on your live site !!!
Maybe get your test site going, and then revisit bbpress ?
ok, just because it was annoying me, I looked further
you should have a folder in your theme called forums which has a number of .css files in it.
As far as I can work out, somewhere you can set up schemes for your forums within this these, or another plugin, and you have selected theme 4?
Anyway two .css files are active
in http://www.betatestarena.com/forums/
the page is using
/forums/#4.css as it’s style file
This has
body.it-background {
}
ie not set, but uses
body.custom-background {
background-attachment: fixed;
background-color: #000000;
background-image: url("http://www.betatestarena.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Background.png");
background-position: center top;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
}
to give you the background color
In your other link – http://www.betatestarena.com/forum/announcements/
the page is using
/forums/ammouncements/#4.css as its style file
which has
body.it-background {
background-image: none !important;
}
body.it-background {
background-color: #D2D2D8 !important;
}
on lines 760 and 761
which set the off-white color.
so play with these settings to get what you want.
What version of wordpress are you using?
Looks like this development is still alive judging from their date of blog posts.
However bbpress is not up to date as from today’s date with wordpress 3.9
Broken
2.5.3 Tested on wordpress 3.9 it says installed but no admin forum links in the wordpress admin settings.
may work with older versions of wordpress
Must be work in progress
Still need some help here. Problem I’m seeing is this:
Black Background: http://www.betatestarena.com/forums/
White Background: http://www.betatestarena.com/forum/announcements/
I need to make that white part be black across all of my forums/subforums.
I posted in this thread 15 months ago that W3 did not work with bbpress.
Have to love the speed though and I thought I’d try again with latest versions:
WP 3.9
W3 0.9.4
bbPress 2.5.3
My first round of testing, prior to trying it on live site, willbrownsberger.com, was successful — I focused most heavily on whether bbpress replies would trigger refreshes. They do seem to. Occasionally, a very little bit of a lag, enough to make a fast-fingered tester wonder, but it seems to OK.
So we are using it live now and will report back if we have any real problems.
For the record, my settings are as follows:
bbpress — anonymous topics and replies allowed (and that is what I carefully tested)
w3 total cache as follows:
GENERAL
Page Cache Enabled
Minify, not enabled
Database Cache enabled
Object Cache not enabled
Browser Cache not enabled (have settings in .htaccess)
CDN not enabled
Reverse Proxy not enabled
Monitoring not enabled
File locking not enabled
Verify Rewrite Rules enabled.
PAGE CACHE SETTINGS (all not checked except the following)
Cache front page
Don’t cache pages for logged in users
Automatically prime the page cache (default interval 900 seconds, 10 pages)
Preload the post cache upon publish
Purge Policy — defaults (front page, post page, blog feed, rss2)
Default advanced options
DATABASE CACHE SETTINGS
Don’t cache pages for logged in users
Default advanced options
Hello … I’m using bbPress 1.2 … I am very pleased with this standalone version …
My question is how could I add WordPress to my bbPress 1.2 … So as to update to the latest version of bbPress … Alan
Hello there,
I use WordPress version 3.9, bbPress Forum 2.5.3, Theme Emphaino.
Forum works if you make an entry, but answering the entry the forum looks deformed, the actual entry is whole covered by the answer. I the answer is very long it is cut by the forum and you can only see a part of that.
Like here
http://lareinadelasvacas.es/foro/topic/circuito-por-russia-en-juniojulio-2014/
http://lareinadelasvacas.es/foro/topic/test/?view=all
The sense of my forum is answering the entries of my users. Already working hours to fix that but I just don´t get it.
Help me please!
Always chillin’… (doesn’t do any good not to). I’ve got a back up and will make a test site. In response to your questions,
1. our site has two levels, one open for all viewers, the other for members which takes them to a page showing them a list (and links) to a weekly topic/images/questions… which I suppose one could call a forum. It’s these weekly topics I’m hoping for members to discuss in a bulletin board.
2. I see nothing in our files that describes a forum slug. Accessing Settings shows options of General, Writing, Reading, Discussion, Media and Permalinks. So… not sure what to tell you on that one.
One of my initial thoughts was a conflict between S2members and bbPress plug ins but disabling S2 still left me with the same results in bbPress as before (not showing widget). So, guess I can rule that conflict out. Which is good.
Next?
Topics are not showing up and in general the forum does not work. For example, even when a registered / logged-in user hits the forum page (where topics are not showing up) the message at the bottom says “You cannot create new forums”
When I click on a forum link it does not open up the page, that would show the topics. Instead it just goes to another page, that does not load the forum page.
