Hello everybody.

I’m very happy with BBPress, it really does the job.

I was going to add other forums in my site and suddenly I saw that the buttons disappear from my main Dashboard (only the bbPress ones: forums, topics, etc)

What happened? I don’t know when this started happening.

Something curious is that, between the second and third group (where the bbPress buttons should be), the separation line appears double.

Thanks so much for your support.

My client has a bbPress/BuddyPress/s2Member forum site with about 400+ members. The site has been running very well for about a year now. This morning I got a call from my client that the Forums are showing Page Not Found on child-forums only. The parent forum pages and topic pages are still displaying accurately. The only change made recently was updating to bbPress 2.3.2, but I can’t say for sure that the problem began immediately after updating.

We are running the following (all up-to-date versions):

• WordPress 3.5.1
• bbPress 2.3.2
• BuddPress 1.7.2
• s2Member Pro v130513

I have tried all of the following with no results:

• Re-saving Permalinks
• Changing Permalinks Structure
• Remapping to Default Roles
• Changing Archive Slugs and Single Slugs
• Flushing Rewrite Rules
• Adding some Capabilities Hacks (removed after they didn’t work)
• Deactivating every plugin (including bbPress and reactivating it)
• No new pages have been added
• No new Custom Post Types have been added

I get the same issue regardless of User Role (Keymaster, Admin, Participant, Moderator, etc…)

I am at a loss and my client is getting frustrated. Please help if you can. Thanks!

A client of mine uses a bbPress/BuddyPress site with a decent sized user base (400+) and out of the blue (seemingly) we are getting a 404 – Page Not Found on any Child Forum page. Topics still work, Parent Forums still work and it is the same no matter the User Role (Admin, Participant, Moderator, Keymaster…). All plugins are up to date. We did just upgrade to the latest bbPress and noticed the problem shortly after, but not 100% sure that was the cause.

WordPress 3.5.1
bbPress 2.3.2
BuddyPress 1.7.2
s2Member® Pro v130513

I am NOT using any Role/Capability Plugins.
Haven’t added any new plugins recently.
I tried:

• Re-saving Permalinks

• There have not been any new Pages added

Here’s my bbPress integration:

Only problem is the queries are running a bit slow right now. I posted about that in Troubleshooting.

I successfully transferred a 75k post board from Yabb 2.3 –> YaBB 2.4 –> SMF 1.4 –> phpBB3 –> bbPress. I’m kinda proud of that. It took a LOT of work.

Hey guys –

My bbPress installation is noticeably slower than the rest of my WordPress site. I have WordPress configured in a multi-site install with bbPress running in a daughter blog. Any time you click a page within the bbPress blog, it takes from 4-7 seconds to begin loading. Once loading begins it is fast. Elsewhere on my site there is no such delay and the pages load essentially immediately.

I have talked to my host and they’re claiming the issue is with the bbPress MySQL queries simply being slow. I have about 75k posts on my board software, which is a recent import from another format.

Can anyone help me speed this up for my users? Is there an optimization I should do? Should I limit returned topics per page? (I currently am returning 20 per page).

Thanks,
Zach

Here’s the site: itinerantangler.com. Everything is in WordPress now, so you can compare one section of the site versus the Board area, which is all bbPress.

Hi,

is there any chance to migrate data (at least users) from SMF to bbPress? All infos I found about it seem to be older and I hope it´s possible now.

Cheers
Michael

hello
I want to create forum with membership but I am wondering what plugin is consistent with bbpress. I’m worried about the name of data is different in MY SQL if I don’t choose correct plugin membership.
thanks

I’ve added the bbpress Recent Topics as a footer widget in my website. I have adapted the layout fairly well to fit with the theme but I need to hide the text author name but keep the avatar. Better still have the avatar separate to the text so I can position them precisely using css.

I’ve taken a look at the ‘Editing widgets.php’ and edited to a degree but I need a little more guidance to accomplish the above.

This are my newly made blogs. I like to make this blogs to domain. But I have no idea how to make them a full website & fan page. I will be glad to accept any kind of suggestions on how to improve our usability and user experience. So Please visit these sites below and give your valuable feedback and suggestions.

I’ve seen threads about this, some a year old. There are folks who want it, there are those who have written plugins, but still none shows unread POSTS.

The best we’ve gotten is “Unread TOPICS”, despite the name unread posts in a few plug ins.

What is it about tracking individual posts (as in topics and their replies), rather then just topics, that is prohibitive?
