Cannot get this to work at all

Published on March 29th, 2014 by EWilliamsAU

I am so very lost, frustrated and feeling like a failure at this point.

I have tried my hardest all week to understand BuddyPress/bbPress and have dumped way over 60 hours (very late nights and early mornings) into trying to set this up and I have come up short handed with absolutely nothing to show for the time I’ve put into this.

Today alone I have failed and retried 6 times. I have completely deleted sites, created newer ones, emptied the Trash, cleared caches and all of the above with no luck whatsoever.

Could somebody….just anybody please help me out here? I am beyond lost and confused.

I have been trying to achieve this with absolutely no results whatsoever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8mh3f6Vzbo

I use the Social Buddy theme: http://themeforest.net/item/social-buddy-wordpress-buddypress-theme/3691122

The site is project.arclightcomics.com

I haven’t a clue what I am doing wrong and after 6 tries I am starting to think this was a ginormous mistake on my end and I really don’t want to think that.

PM button in posts

I’m not sure if I should post this question here or in the buddypress forum.
Is there any way to make a PM button in forum posts (using buddypress private messaging)?

Properly deleting hidden/private forums to increase performance

Published on March 29th, 2014 by highexistence

I saw @johnjamesjacoby mention twice how larger BBpress sites should avoid hidden/private forums to avoid a JOIN that checks if each topic/reply is from a hidden forum.

I had two private forums, and my site was so slow that I could not delete them from wp-admin. So I used phpMyAdmin to delete both forms as well as all the topics beneath them.

Is there anything else I need to do to ensure I get that performance increase?

Thanks!

Importing Users from Kunena1

Published on March 29th, 2014 by Daniele

Hey guys,
I’m successfully importing old Kunena1 forums and users.
But I don’t understand what’s the expected behavior with the imported user passwords.
I see this message on the Forum Import page:
“Non-bbPress passwords cannot be automatically converted. They will be converted as each user logs in.”

I tested and old users just can’t login as the password is not recognized.
They have to follow the password forgot procedure.

Is this the expected behavior?

Thanks!

quote topic

Published on March 28th, 2014 by batmanfan

I’ve seen another forum feature that can include ‘quote’ with the username writes.. e.g.

“John Wrote:
I like this forum…..

I like it too.

This is helpful and easy when a new user wants to quote a another user’s line and answer/comment. Also this makes it easy especially when a topic has several comments.

So, is there a plugin for this? I searched but couldn’t really find one.

Removed Spam But Topic Remains Current

Published on March 28th, 2014 by Matoca

I run my bbPress forum so that users do not need to register. Moderators log in to post and are the only required registered users. So far Akismet has been fabulous catching spam.

Today Akismet marked a legitimate reply as spam and I quickly unchecked that so it would post properly. No problem there.

Later, a spam reply was missed by Akismet because it appears to have relatively normal text. But I recognized the text to be spam and the username confirmed that. I added the IP to a blacklist and checked it as spam. No problem there.

The problem I have is that the topic the reply was posted under is now appearing at the top of the topic order in the forum indicating that I have just posted a reply recently. The spam is removed so the last date of a reply would have been mine, in December.

Is there anyway to get this topic to appear where it should on the forum page, well below more recent topics?
Thank you, Matoca
