When admin selects a user and checks ‘block’ on Forum Role. Therefore user can’t post/reply to topic, it shows this message “You cannot reply to this topic” Can this message be modified to something like ‘You have been blocked, please confirm admin’?

Hello,

I’m trying to import our Mingle forum into BBpress, but have so far had no luck.

The website is www.kylekushman.com

The forum is located at http://kylekushman.com/community/message-board/

I have entered “kushman_wrdp1” as my database name, and for prefix “wp_”

Everytime I hit start it returns with

“Repair any missing information: Continue

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

I am trying to migrate from our current phpBB3 forums to a bbPress and BuddyPress instance. I have the plugins installed and configured. My issue is when I try to run the importer under Tools > Forums > Import

I am receiving the following:

The problem is that there is 18 forums, 14,000+ posts and 1,900+ users.

Has anyone experienced this? If so and your succeeded in getting phpBB3 to import could you share any tricks you had to perform?

Thanks really looking forward to leaving phpBB3 behind if possible!

I’m importing a large subscription forum from a custom-coded Lotus Notes / Domino database (*sigh*) which I converted to MySQL. The posts exported from Lotus include User’s first and last names, but no passwords, or email addresses. These old users won’t be able sign in, but their names should be displayed next to the posts they authored that were imported to the new WP site. I would like all users to re-register for the new site in order to post new topics, etc.

So, is this even possible? Are email addresses/passwords required when importing Users based on the converter /plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/converters/Example.php? I’m really trying to avoid creating an Admin user named “Archived Author” to assign all 35,000 of these old topics/replies to.

Thanks in advance.

Is it possible let users view their newly created topic prior to ‘submit’ it live? is there a plugin or a code to add to it? Thanks.

Hi,

I’ve set up a bbPress forum on my WordPress installation. Thanks to Jetpack “widget visibility” feature, I’ve put the bbPress Login Widget on the Forum and Topic page types.

But I found no answer on how to display the Login Widget on the forum root. It’s kind of confusing for users who land on the forum root and can not see any registration link…

Hi. My forum wont show up properlly. The “freshness” moves onto a seperate line, and none of the sidebar tabs show up. PLEASE HELP. Thx

Can a user view topic by ‘sorting’ e.g. sort by ‘Ascending’ or ‘Descending’, or by date/author or subject? is there a plugin for this?

Is there simple way to allow user to register requiring only “username” and “email”?
Once sign up, an email will be sent to new user with auto generated password?

Is there a way to bar users by ip address or username or email address?
