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.
Hi,
I’m a newbie!
I’m using the WordPress theme called Directory by Templatic.
Is it possible to create two DIFFERENT Forums on my site on different pages using BBPress?
Basically the one would just be a general forum while the other would have to have security features built in.
Thank you,
Alan
Hi,
I’m a newbie!
I’m using the WordPress theme called Directory by Templatic.
I’ve just downloaded and activated BBPress but I cant find it in the WP Menu on left side of page.
Could the problem be that I already have another Forum plugin active on my site?
Thank you,
Alan
I just signed up 60 new users and put them in a new group and created a forum.
Whenever a user tries to post a topic or reply to my initial topic the page refreshes back to home.
bbpress – 2.5 14-6684
wp 4.9.4
Other forums I started last year seem to work fine.
The site is members.institutechiro.com
I just need clarification on private vs public. If a forum is public, anyone can see the name of the forum and its sub-forums whether they’re logged in or not but if you enter a forum you can ONLY see the topics if you’re logged in. So you have to be logged in to see the topics. If a forum is private, you can ONLY see the name of the forum and its sub-forums if you’re logged in. Is this right?
We have WordPress version 4.9.4 and tried to install bbPress on our site yesterday. Our site is http://www.oen.org
I have successfully created a forum index using shortcode and populated one forum with a topic. However, when I click on the Forum name from the index, I get taken to a page that merely includes our nav menu and footer (see screenshots below). I cannot get to a page that displays the forum topics. Any ideas what might be going on?

Forum page:
Hi, I have create a new Page and add thanks to bbpress style pack plugin a form where users can create their own Topics. Unfortunately it doesn’t show the TinyMCE EDITOR
Since the beginning of this month I can’t edit my own post as a keymaster or those from participants in the forum. When I click the edit button it just refresh the page.
Would you be familiar with this problem?
I am trying to set the sort order alphabetical for only 1 of our forums, leaving the rest as default. I tried a function that I found in another thread below, but it resulted in all the topics just disappearing.
/*
//* Change sort order of Topics within a specified bbpress forum
function my_custom_display_topic_index_query ($args) {
$thisforumid = bbp_get_forum_id();
if($thisforumid == 15283) {
$args[‘orderby’] = ‘date’;
$args[‘order’] = ‘ASC’;
}
return $args;
}
add_filter(‘bbp_before_has_topics_parse_args’, ‘my_custom_display_topic_index_query ‘ );
*/
