Hi Maxime,

Are you trying to import into 2.5 or into 2.6? If you start with a fresh bbPress, then please note that v2.6 has improved import capabilities. You can download the latest RC from https://bbpress.org/download/

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,
The importers have been given a boost in 2.6. So if you start importing, better try with the latest RC of v2.6. You can download it from https://bbpress.org/download/

[Robin W]

untested, but add this to your functions file or snippets

add_filter ('bbp_before_insert_forum_parse_args' , 'rew_order' ) ;

function rew_order ($args) {
$args['menu_order'] = 10 ;
return $args ;
}

I have read this topic : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/smf-import-to-bbpress/page/7/

And currently trying to figure out the way to do it, I have massive forum. Seems forum system a bit neglected by their builder nowadays. (and I wish BBpress not the same).

Do the current version BBPress importer works with current / latest SMF?
Mine seems stucks at 5900 topic conversion something out of 13K topics. Im running conversion of 1.7gb database on xampp – localhost server with i7 and 16gb of ram with tweaked php.ini and-so-on.

Yet possibly another 450k replies waiting in que… now Im worried.

Seriously, no idea to identify which database column made it stucks…

Hi,

Thank you for your reaction! <3

For the forum site club.geef-model.nl I have set the mailaddress in settings>general in info@geef-model.nl. I have created, using incognito screen, a new user and confirmed it but I still don’t receive a notification mail of it.

I also installed the plugin check email and tested it. I received the following mail:
This test email proves that your WordPress installation at http://club.geef-model.nl can send emails.\n\nSent: Wed, 16 Jan 2019 15:32:08 +0000

What could I do now to solve my problem?

With kind regards,
Klaziena Waerts

Hello Robin, and thanks for taking care.

Well, I did as suggested, and ran into several problems : this a theme problem AND a theme child problem apparently.
I keep testing solutions and will be back if needed. thanks for your help any way !

[Robin W]

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that deosnlt work, also 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.

Then come back

@maximemue. The point of the export/import task is to get the data into a database with the latest data format. I found a thread that suggested exporting data out of the old database then creating a new one – which should have the newer format – and importing the data into it. How you accomplish this depends on what tools you have available. In my case, I was using the GoDaddy database interface – not PHPMyAdmin. I didn’t have a choice but PHPMyAdmin should be fine.

Once you’ve done this you’ll need to “wire” up phpBB to use the new database by editing the config file. Look for the documents on their website that deal with installation and setup. That’ll point you in the right direction on which file and what to change.

Hi @sockscap64

Amazing!

I’ve just tested it and it looks to work as expected 🙂

Just one point is not: when you have a relative link as an internal link the “nofollow” attribute is still here.

See for example https://rencontre-surdoue.com/groupes/science/forum/topic/intelligence-artificielle/
The link on “musique” in an internal one (/groupes/musique/)

I don’t know if this is something you forgot to deal with when writing your plugin? I guess every relative link should be treated as an internal one (or maybe I’m missing something obvious here?).

Best Regards

[Robin W]

Actually if you are getting the same as the first poster, which still does the error, then having link won’t help.

I’ve just tested on my test site and all ok, so if you have disabled all the plugins, have you switched theme?

[Robin W]

I suspect that it doesn’t know which user you want displayed

untested but try this

<?php 
$current_user_id = (int) bbp_get_current_user_id();

$topics = bbp_get_user_topic_count_raw($current_user_id);
 $replies = bbp_get_user_reply_count_raw($current_user_id);

$totalTopics = $topics * 5;
 $totalsReplies = $replies * 2;

$points = $totalTopics + $totalsReplies;

echo " points = $points.";

?>

[trayzio]

WP: 4.9.8
bbp: 2.5.14
https://graysentinels.com/forums

Problem, the Toolbar for replies is missing. We’ve confirmed that this issue appears with our theme, edge Elritch 1.2. Tested with the Twenty Fifteen theme and the toolbar appears.

Thanks for your time!

I’ve found no issues in relation to WordPress 5.0
And BBPRESS continues to be stable but as an actively maintained and developed platform BBPRESS is dead.

As you have seen Version 2.6 has been in development for about 2 years and no updates have been made on the latest release candidate in over a year I think.

The only person providing any support here seems to be Robin, who I understand Is not part of the BBPRESS team but has developed a number of plugins that can help with many users issues.

Even with Bbpress scale and amount of plugin developers I still can’t believe there is no way of adding images inline in a BBpress post with the image being loaded into the WordPress media library.

[Robin W]

no problem, I’ll load to to my test site when I get a moment

[dailycdev]

When I create Testimonial Pages on my site, I am not getting the expected results.
I do see my forum page and it looks good.

Forum

However, clicking on any of my forum pages, I get a title and a summary with a Continue Reading button.
Clicking the title or Continue reading brings me to the same page.
I am expecting the page to open, where users can write testimonials and such and post them.
Anyhow, this is not happening and screenshots of my issues are below…
https://1drv.ms/f/s!AtzxGqXDzsbBiLcoDclhspyQlmV7Yw

Let me know what I need to do to fix this.
Also, if my theme is not compatible, please let me know.

[Robin W]

for

[bbp-subscribe-link forum_id=’557′]

this code (untested) should be close

function bp_subscribe_shortcode($attr) {	
//must have a forum_id or we just return !
  if (empty( $attr['forum_id'])) return	;
  else $args['forum_id'] = $attr['forum_id'];
  echo bbp_forum_subscription_link($args) ;
} 

add_shortcode( 'bbp-subscribe-link', 'bp_subscribe_shortcode' );

[Robin W]

ok, I think you will need to do some more testing

so 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.

Then come back

[Robin W]

dashboard>settings>bbp private groups>group name settings
set up a user group called whatever you like
set up a moderator group called whatever you like

dashboard>settings>bbp private groups>assign groups to roles
click add group on first or no group login
assign subscribers to the user group

dashboard>settings>bbp private groups>topic permissions
click to activate

dashboard>forums>edit forum
in each forum you want to show this, add the user and moderator groups and then save. You will then see topic permissions and can make users only be able to create/edit/view own topics

Then TEST to ensure it does what you want

[tapiohuuhaa]

Last time I tested pasting url it converted as clickable link. That is then partially ok.

[tapiohuuhaa]

Well this works better than by adding some extra function to the functions.php

The problem was that pasting text add unwanted HTML:

Suomen Kuvalehti 50/2018

I tested using this plugin. I didn’t get unwanted HTML. so in his plugin this issue has been solved.

But I would like to get transforming http://&#8230; into format, which has been used in my previous post. Can that be achieved with this plugin?

[phil1ooo]

Hello
New to bbpress “to be honest I have always used wpForo” and I am finding it to be far far easier than this bbpress option and a much cleaner appearance, where I would of had wpForo up and running in less than 30 minutes, I have been working on this bbPress for 2 days now and still now where near making it usable to frontend members”

But here I am giving you guys the benefit of the dout as my current needs require something a little different.
My issue not displaying the profile page as that is childs play to do but to get the /user page edited so that it all properly aligns https://support.ozy.net.au/support-forums/users/dummy/

Now click on this link https://support.ozy.net.au/support-forum/ to login.
I have created a dummy account that I will leave active for a few days giving you change to have a look
UN – dummy@yours.com
PW – 1dummytest1

I understand/know these are widgets but my issue is not being able to access this USERS page to make any changes and i can’t seem to find it anywhere in the system or cPanel file system.

I also have the same issue with another plugin but just can’t find it right now.
This “bbp Topic Count” plugin also doesn’t work as no shortcodes displayed here actually work
Thi scan be seen here https://support.ozy.net.au/top-users/ at it should appear above the profile you see there “considering you do see that profile from your end that is”

Having said this I have spent the last 2 days looking online at options and ways around all these things but most of what you find is so outdated and the rest in most part doesn’t work.

I am creating this for a network which means just setting it up is a big job without the hassles this plugin is giving me and the last thing I need is constant maybe’s and what if’s so either this plugin works or it doesn’t. Not trying to be rube just very direct in my needs.

Hope you can help.
Cheers

latest BBPress – do you mean 2.5.14?

[spaceman_qc]

I have the latest WordPress (5.0.2) and latest BBPress. I enabled the visual editor with the bbPress tweak plugin and then every time I tried to edit a reply it will not let me submit it again. The page would just like reload and my text was gone. No error in the console but saw thing flashed there.

But if I login, logout, return to bbPress and uses the text editor and kept the visual editor in the back, everything worked ok. So I disabled it and since then no more bugs.

Is there other WYSIWYG editor that I can use? Is there something I can do to make it work correctly?

[Robin W]

ok, that is quite ambitious, so well done for getting so far.

As I think you are doing, you should only change files in the templates and then only by copying them to a bbpress folder in your child theme. The originals can (and should) stay in the bbpress plugin file. bbpress will see your files in the child theme and use them instead.

to move the topic content – the word ‘test’ in your example

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-content, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-content {
	margin-left: 0px !important;
}
