Topics created, posts counted, but no posts shown

  • Hey guys, I just installed bbPress and everything to go fine but no matter what user i use to make a post or a topic I end up with the same results:

    I can create forums, and topics but no posts, including the initial post for a topic, are showing up. You see the list of topics but when you click them it only shows the title of the topic with no posts. What’s odd is that on the forum itself it keeps track of the number of posts you supposedly posted… they just don’t show up. Even stranger is that even though on the forums the number of missing posts are still counted, when you go to the admin panel and go to posts it shows no posts (forums and topics show up in the admin panel fine).

    Any help would be gladly appreciated.

    I am having the same issue and have checked the MySQL database it seems there is no table for the posts, so the titles get saved but not the contents.

    Could someone from the BBPress team help out here?

    Cheers,

    hey asboyd do you have phpmyadmin or any other database management? if so select the database and go to execute and execute the same exact code that gave u the error… should be the same as mine. Only this time change the last line to:

    ENGINE = MYISAM DEFAULT CHARACTER SET 'utf8';

    basically changing TYPE to ENGINE. That will correct everything. good luck.

    PS thanks to Super Artsy in the topic below for posting the solution.

    YungLion,

    I ended up creating the table manually. Using the error information.

    So now I can use the bbpress forum but I have raised a new problem regarding navigation links…
