Hi there,
I’d like to import punBB forums to BBpress from localhost.
I am running MAMP localy with punBB forums and I want to import them to an online BBpress installation.
When I am typing in ‘localhost’ and credentials in the import form the script cannot find topics, messages, users and so to convert though I don’t get any DB connexion error message.
Any advice on how to achieve this? Thanks.
I have permalinks set like this
/%category%/%postname%/
I just installed bbpress and haven’t touched the settings. My forum root looks like
mysite.com/forums and displays the 2 forums I created
Test-1
Test-2
But when I go to test-1 it looks like:
mysite.com/forums/forum/Test-1
I don’t want it to say “forums/forum” just “forums/Test-1”
How can I accomplish this?
I had someone build my website and he hasn’t been much help recently so I have been trying to learn things on my own. I have bbpress 2.5.3 and I’m not sure what all the website developer has done when it comes to customization. I want to update but before I do I just wanted to make sure I won’t lose anything on my forum. It’s fairly new but if I lose anything I don’t know if I would be able to fix it. I know very little about this type of stuff. So I just wanted to know if it is safe to update or if I should hold off.

Hi there
I want to add more fields to the users profile and also display them under the users role in posts.
I just want it to fetch the information from the users meta data.
How ever the following does not appear to work
`
<?php
function add_author_details( $user_details ){
/* Add author details */
$user_details['soldier'] = __('Soldier Name');
return $user_details;
}
add_filter('user_adddetails', 'add_author_details');
function add_author_details_author() {
echo get_user_meta(bbp_get_reply_author_id(), 'soldier', true);
}
add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'add_author_details_author' ); ?>
`
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi All,
Why when I have updated bbpress to the version 2.5.4 I have lost the language files ? The po and mo files are not any more in the languages folder….
Is it a bug or how to solve that for the next update ?
Thanks

Hello, just setup my first forum, and it does not give the user an option to login if they have already created the account. On my forum page, I have the code:
I’m extremely new to WordPress and totally new to bbpress. I have designed a community website in 2012 which seems fine, and want to add a forum.
It needs to be compact and waste no space, or people won’t use it. That doesn’t seem to be possible in 2012, which forces a sidebar if you want a search facility, and which consumes a lot of vertical space with the identity of the contributor, including a large avatar. My very first experimental shot is here:
http://www.hundredthmonkey.eu/?topic=wish-list
and you’ll see what I mean. I wish I could attach a screen shot of the Sibelius.com forum, which is my ideal.
I am thinking that the only solution will be to link out to a separate site with a really compact, unfussy, uncluttered theme. Can anyone suggest?
Hi, newbie here. I asked friends to register in my forum, but no password send to their emails. Please advise. Thank you.
i followed the instructions on this site of installation. downloaded recommended plugin and I can only get my main sidebar to appear as oppose to the formed theemed options. what is the next step, any help will be greatly appreciated
