Hi all, I have converted my vbulletin forums to bbpress (a heavily pruned version of my big db)
– The conversion completed perfectly
– I ran the all repair jobs perfectly (except for user roles)
– The users are all imported perfectly
– the forum runs perfectly except..
The Problem:
All replies in every topic shows anonymous instead of user
is there any way to fix this?
thanks
Hi, I am using this Plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbspoiler/
The button ‘spoiler’ is not visible in bbpress frontend. Only in admin backend.
I’ve inherited a WordPress site (v3.2.1) running bbPress v2.0. I’d like to update everything to current releases and then see about adding some features. I’ve run into roadblocks at every turn.
Because of custom plugins, I can’t upgrade anything, as it all breaks right away, so I thought I’d start with a fresh install of WordPress (v4.9.4) and bbPress (v2.5.14) and try to re-create the site.
I can’t get the old posts out of the old site and into the new one.
I tried “bbPress Import & Export”, which doesn’t do anything (blank screen when I try to export), but was able to get an XML file out of the Tools->Export page.
When I tried to import it on the new site, I was asked to match up all the users (a pain with over 200 to do one-by-one), which seemed successful, but I ended up with a main forums page that looks right as far as Topics and Posts go, but the Freshness column says “No Topics” and clicking into a thread results in a “Oh bother! No topics were found here!” message.
Any ideas? Thanks!

I currently have both bbpress and buddy press installed on my page. I have setup some private forums on the bbpress sites.
Right now, registration is manual as we want to control who can be a member.
What I would prefer is:
— Users submit their information and membership is approved.
— A nice to have here would be that either user names were just email addresses OR when approving the membership, the admin then assigned the user name
We would also like to restrict the access to the forums so that there are 3 sets of users — One that can read all boards, one that can read a subset of boards, and one that can only read a single board.
Are there plugins that people recommend for this? Also, while I originally thought we would be using the social media aspects of buddy press, we don’t seem to be. Is there any reason to leave it installed?

Hello. I just started using a new forum with my bbpress.
bbpress – 2.5 14-6684
wp 4.9.4
The site is members.institutechiro.com
A user just forwarded me his email and it is full of code. Example.
<p class=”p1″><span class=”s1″>Great first week content.</span></p>
<p class=”p1″><span class=”s1″>I was interested to know that an intellectual generation has 33 integers; making me a 4th gen chiro.</span></p>
please help.
Thanks.

I have two separate forums, is it possible to keep the email notifications separate? Right now everyone that has a user account on the website is getting email notifications from all forum posts. Anyway to keep the emails separate per the forum?
I am trying to use this plugin. I put brackets around words in the fields.
But when I to to “view” profile – and click the words I get a page not found.
I don’t see any suggestions on the plugin help page.
If I click on a profile item that was “mandatory” then it takes me to the proper member search page. But the optional profile items that the plugin is designed to turn into search terms – leads me to page not found.

Hi BBpress people!
Okay, it’s taken me days to go through with the conversion between vbulletin and bbpress. Until now, I have yet to see my complete forums in bbpress. The process stops eventually every time I restart.
180K Threads
4.2m Post
170 Users
What I have done is:
– copied the vbulletin site to vbulletincopy
– prune it down to 100K post (replies)
– start the conversion
– it’s taken me 8hrs and i’ve only got 18,000 replies converted.
Question 1:
How else can I do this conversion? I really want to get bbpress working.
Can I try this?:
– copy 4 or 5 copies of vbulletin db
– prune posts according to date (eg: 2018 – 2015 / 2015 – 2014)
– go through the conversion again with every “batch” and let it overwrite somehow?
Question 2:
How can I copy it in stages and let the forums operate with the latest data and I can overwrite with more old threads later?
Thanks!
When I clic on an author name on my forum, i got ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS.
That problem was for every author that I want to see the profil page on the website but by changing the link (dashboard-> settings-> permalinks) sometimes I can go on the admin profil page this way.
I try to deactivate all pluggins and changed my theme to see if it was that but nothings change.
