Has anyone successfully migrated from Simple:Press to bbPress without issues?

I need to be able to migrate all my posts / threads and the forum names. I dont need PMs migrated, I dont need stickies or flags, likes, or anything else. Just the important stuff:

Posts

Threads

What user posted

Date/time stamps and posts/threads in correct chronological order

Forum it was posted under

Forum names

From what I have seen some of the scripts out there fail at importing the poster data – i.e. the posts are not attributed to the actual poster, they are all attributed to the user running the importer plugin.

Has anyone found a clean way to do this? I’d be willing to pay for someone who has done this successfully without issues, to help me with this. THanks

I’m new to wordpress and bbpress.

I’m trying to build up my company site with wordpress and I need to have two different forums with different templates.

So I installed bbpress and I created two different pages in wordpress and in each page I used shortcode “” to create a single forum page.

Each single forum page should use different template or theme, but I couldn’t find any way to use different templates for different forums simultaneously.

Does anyone know if this is possible to do with bbpress?

Thanks in advance.

Which tag need to be fitted with verical-align:top; to align the topic content to the top?

Its no in the middle.

I have installed bbPress today and been looking around in the files, and have started to get a grip on the theme and how it works.

But I am no designer, and I would like to buy a theme that is either exact alike – or close to – what I would like to get.

I do like the simplicity / setup of the theme used here in bbPress.org/forums – but would like have a little more icons etc.

Do you know any place where I can buy theme(s) for bbPress when using it as a WP-plugin?

I mean themes placed here:

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/

Thank you

Situation:

I am writing a post, and want to have a related forum for that post. For this I am using the Posts 2 Posts-plugin by scribu. This is easily and beautifully done by simply typing in the new forum name in a metabox when creating the post. So now I have a connected forum to the post and want display the topics of that forum.

The brilliant plugin is here: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/posts-to-posts/

So – I asked Scribu what to do here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-posts-2-posts-connect-post-to-a-forum-and-fetch-the-topics

And he told me to ask you this for more help:

given a forum id, how I can I display a list of recent topics, with links?

Thanks for anything.

Hi, im using the latest version of buddypress+bbpress.

I installed sitewide forums.

Used the shortcode

It works, but after you click on a sections you cant do anything anymore. cant start a topic, it just puts the description in the page

Greetings,

I’m looking of the ‘Goldilocks’ theme for bbPress 2.0.2 with the “bbPress Threaded Replies plugin, version 0.3”, on WP 3.3.1.

Here’s what I’ve found on my site as I view forum replies:

• Twenty Eleven 1.3 – the threading is very well performed with ‘shading’ used to group/nest and further ‘orient’ the reader about what rely is being replied to.

• Twenty Ten 1.3 – the treading works fairly well via subtle indenting, but there’s no shading and the grouping is so subtle that ‘orientation’ about who is talking to who is considerably less obvious than with Twenty Eleven

• bbPress (Twenty Ten) 1.2 – this theme did not ‘thread’ for this plugin

Summarizing, 2011 presents threading the best, but I prefer the “compactness” of the 2010 theme over 2011 at the top of each page. So, I have a bit of a dilemma in that none of these themes are ‘Just Right’.

Does anyone have any suggestions about other themes that might work better for this Newbie?

Oh, and this might be useful. The Threaded Replies plugin ReadMe file states that: “Filters are available for modification of plugin behavior”, but it shares no other information about this. Does anyone have any experience with these ‘Filters’ …what they are, what they might do, etc.?

It would really useful for subscribing to topics, if it sent you a buddypress notification when there was a new reply.

I think this should be enabled whenever someone subscribes to a topic and it should give them an option whether or not to subscribe to email notifications as well.

The problem with email notifications is that they can quickly fill up your inbox on a popular topic and not everyone checks their emails often. Users see notifications whenever they visit the site.

Sorry if this was answered before,

Is it possible to remove certain buttons from the publish bar?

thank you

Hi,

I am testing bbpress 2.1 plugin, and topic tags seems to be an unnecessary feature,

How to disable / remove it completely? (tags are so out of fashion these days)

It would be nice if in the future version there was a tick box in forum settings to turn it off
