Hmmm… Yep quotes are converted correctly, are you sure you uploaded the latest vBulletin.php file and uploaded to
http://themaraudershockeyclub.com/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/converters
Yes all the Qoutes are working and look good.
You are welcome to take a look at my test site.

The only videos that work are ones I removed the stuff from, i don’t know what its called [video].
I just uploaded and tested it and it is working as it should for me (I added a few of your ‘[video=youtube_share…’ links to some vB posts.
Hi Xevo,
sorry, but it runs still on localhost.
But it looks just like here in the forum. For example, in the table “Latest Topics”
Please look here.
These small avatars I would like to delete.
I guess it is to be found in the same file of bbPress?
Would be glad for help.
Thank you.
Hello. I am testing out the bbpress forum for future use on my website. It is currently located at http://www.historicmysteries.com/forumss/forumm/administration/
I am using a Studiopress Genesis theme and downloaded the BBpress Genesis plugin and toolkit.
If you take a look at the link, the “freshness” text is located underneath and to the right of the text “forum”. Is this correct? It seems out of place.
Any assistance is appreciated
I think – ironically – my posts are being sent straight to spam or pending, etc. here on the bbpress forum. I posted something here yesterday and have not seen it yet. My profile says I have no started topics.
How can this be fixed here? Also, how can I fix it on my own site? I’m using Gensis 2.0.
Thanks.
Ken
Hello,
I am using Weaver II theme and latest version of WordPress. Here is the link to the page I am trying to put the forum on.
http://www.stan-mitchell_DOT_net/tech-forum-5/ (CHANGE THE “_DOT_” TO “.”)
I get the forum topics and I can navigate to the topics and I see the blue box saying there is a reply, but I cannot see the replies to any topics. I have deactivated all plugins and changed the theme then changed permalinks and saved then reactivated the weaver theme and reactivated plugins and still the replies do not show. I am a noob here so probably something simple but any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
(I thought I posted yesterday but don’t see it under my profile. If duplicate, mods know what to do)
WP 3.5.1 with bbPress. Click topic in one forum (I.e. domain.com/general/topic) and it shows 11 posts with 10 per page. Click page 2 and it brings you to a new forum and topic.
Yesterday I tested and it brought me not to the 11th post but another forum and topic (domain.com /sports/twins). Just checked now and it brings up a different forum and topic than yesterday.
I need to know how to fix this. I’m thinking a temp fix is to allow 20 topics per page as the site is new. I’m just hoping I can do that.
But I need a perm fix so it stays on topic.
(The site is for mature folks so I can give our leader, Justin, the URL but won’t post it).
Hi jezza,
really a great plugin!! Thanks.
Does it works with the latest WP Version 3.6 ?
The SimplePress converter is already included in bbPress and is the latest version available, you should not need to download and upload it to your server.
The settings are critical to getting the importer working correctly, sadly at this stage there is very little error messages displayed if you get any of these settings wrong and this is the most common issue with importing.
Ensure your settings are correct for the fields noted in the docs here:
https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/#configuring-the-importer
You may have to check with your webhost to ensure you are using the correct values.
bbpress is under active development by JJJ, so the latest versions should work with the latest versions of wordpress.
Hi.
Somehow I managed to make my submit button disappear, while adjusting my child theme. Now it’s not possible to create a new topic nor reply to existing topics. You can submit by hitting return, but of course this is not very handy.
If I change to the parent theme the button is visible. But surely, I want to keep my child theme.
I’ve gone through all the adjusted css and it doesn’t seem as if any buttons has been set to “display:none”.
Can someone please tell me how I get my submit button back?
You can view the test forum here
I’m using WordPress 3.6 and bbpress Version 2.3.2
My child theme is based on Magazine Basic
Now having an issue where Apache on Windows 7 appears to crash and the conversion process stops when processing the replies with latest script. I’ll need to get a SS of the dialogs that appear which I will attach when I get the chance. It stops/crashes at around 1370 replies. Funny thing is apache and all the other services such as mysql etc. are still running.
Also noticed that we still seem to have the issue where the count is out by the same amount we set to process i.e. it says we are processing 100 – 200 rows when in fact we are processing 200 – 300. This goes for both topics and replies.
Going to run the previous script to see if this causes the same issue.
Neil.
Good stuff. Will give it a test out. Thanks.
Neil.
Latest Attachment PunBB.php
Fixed:
- Topics
- Replies
- User Nice Name ‘user_nicename’ & Display Name ‘user_displayname’ import fields
- User PunBB MSN
Outstanding:
- Forum/Category? hierarchy (currently parent forums/categories are imported ‘flat’)
- User Passwords
- – Custom BBCode for Topic & Reply Content
NOTE: If you are importing ‘users’ during the import you will see multiple instances of the following error message:-
– Notice: Undefined variable: user_pass in /home/webhost/public_html/wp-includes/user.php on line 1305
This can be ignored and only relates to the current non-working state of converting user passwords. If you need to login (or users login) they will just need to reset their WordPress password to be able to login.
@capacitron Thanks a bunch for testing it out, glad it worked.
bbPress & BuddyPress use the same WordPress user table so everything should be common across both plugins and WordPress itself.
That said, any extra profile data I can get from the source forum, in this case MyBB we are storing the extra data in the WordPress ‘usermeta’ table so this data can be manipulated/imported/whatever at a later time.
With MyBB I only see 3 extra user profile fields to store (ICQ, MSN & Signature), the rest WordPress includes by default (AIM, Yahoo etc) .
Looking at the current version of MyBB.php importer at Line #474 you will see the three entries I have (summarized below):
- // Store ICQ (Stored in usermeta)
‘to_fieldname’ => ‘_bbp_mybb_user_icq’
- // Store MSN (Stored in usermeta)
‘to_fieldname’ => ‘_bbp_mybb_user_msn’
- // Store Signature (Stored in usermeta)
‘to_fieldname’ => ‘_bbp_mybb_user_sig’,
Thus under each imported user in the wp_usermeta table under each user id the above data will also be stored…. So for example if you wanted to install a bbPress/BuddyPress signature plugin to extend either of these plugins you could then copy the data from this stored field to the field that the plugin uses f or storing user signature data. As any of this can be done in numerous ways by plugin authors each site admin will need to decide what plugin to use and how to shift around any relevant data.

@ricov4 Thanks, to help out if you can download the importer and setup a test environment to see how well it works that would be great.
@koawinter I have not tried SMF 1.1.16 and only downloaded the latest version of SMF. Are you able to update your SMF to v2.0.4? You could also try the importer and see if it does or does not work and we can go from there.
@NeilJ Thanks a bunch for testing it out… The previous versions of the counts would have been off as the original reply query was adding the original topic as its own reply, I have now fixed this and from my testing the counts are now correct for topics and replies.
As far as I can tell it is now only the user passwords and some custom regex strings to fix some converted BBCode and ‘Smilies’ and we will have a perfect SMF importer 🙂
I have updated the SMF Importer and you can download the latest again via the same links in my original post above.
Fixed:
- Forum parent hierarchy
- Imported Replies now import correctly
- User Display Name

These can both be ignored and only relates to the current non-working state of converting user passwords. If you need to login (or users login) they will just need to reset their WordPress password to be able to login.
Nice! Just finished using your importer on a test site. Everything went great, no problems. I’m almost sad I didn’t have an error. How can I help you more?
The feature I’m dying for is to import MyBB user profile data into BuddyPress profiles. Any plans for that feature?
If not, do you have any suggestions for me?
Hmmm something odd going on and I beginning to think it is to do with the number rows being processed for the replies. Running a test where I have set processing of 100 rows at a time it is showing in the status box as the following:
Converting replies (1500 - 1599)
Looking at the number of wp_posts where the post_type is equal to reply it shows 1652:
mysql> select count(*) from wp_posts where post_type = "reply";
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
| 1652 |
+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
I was checking the processlist whilst the import was running and the inserts just completely stopped with no errors.
