Email notifications stopped working
Published on January 11th, 2018 by dsmcculloughAdd reply programatically
Published on January 11th, 2018 by egathernlHi,
I’ve created a custom module for bbpress to combine all new topics and replies in one overview. From there the moderator can comment on all the incoming messages. This works only i’ve one problem. To add a new reply i use the next code:
reply_data = array('post_parent'=>$post_parent, 'post_content' => $post_content);
$reply_meta = array('forum_id'=>$post_forum_id, 'topic_id' => $post_topic_id);
bbp_insert_reply($reply_data,$reply_meta);
When this is a reply on an other reply everything works fine. But when it is a reply on a new topic then the Topic starter ip-adres is changed to the ip-address of the moderator. I can turn some things off in the core function includes/topics/functions.php
// Update poster IP if not editing
update_post_meta( $topic_id, '_bbp_author_ip', bbp_current_author_ip(), false );
But that isn’t what I prefer of course.
Could someone help me out?
Thanks in advance.

Forum not working on my website
Published on January 11th, 2018 by Darko DinicHi dear support,
we have installed your plugin on our website and apparently it’s not working properly.
If we use the shortcodes to place it on some page:
It shows list of forums but once you try accessing some forum it shows empty page:
Also, the default forum page is not working:
http://jadran.paprikart.rs/forums/
We already tried disabling all the plugins to rest assured that plugin conflict is not making some conflict there and it’s still not working.
WP version 4.9.1.
Can you please take a look at it and advise?
Thanks in advance!
Vanilla Forums Importer needs this
Published on January 10th, 2018 by sdeedsSMF to BBPress – error utf8mb4
I am getting the same error as this post identifies:
WordPress database error: [Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes]
CREATE TABLE wp_bbp_converter_translator ( meta_id mediumint(8) unsigned not null auto_increment, value_type varchar(25) null, value_id bigint(20) unsigned not null default '0', meta_key varchar(255) null, meta_value varchar(255) null, PRIMARY KEY (meta_id), KEY value_id (value_id), KEY meta_join (meta_key(191), meta_value(191)) ) DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci;
But for Vanilla. It looks like an update to the importer is all that it took to fix this,
@netweb , @johnjamesjacoby
Thoughts?
Thanks for your time!!

Noidex metatag to groups of pages
Published on January 10th, 2018 by Process of IlluminationHi,
I need to add the metatag “noindex” to some group of pages, for example:
Category Archives
Tag Archives
Author Archives
Date Archives
Search Pages
Attachment Pages
I tried different plugins that should do the trick (yoast and the seo framework) but they don’t.
I already contacted their support, again with no luck:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/meta-robots-noindex-not-appearing/
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/noindex-on-bbpress-issues/
So how can i add the noindex metatag to the <head> of these groups of pages?
I am using BBP 2.5.14, WP 4.9.1 and Forum – A responsive theme for bbPress plugin by Dannci | ThemeForest.
I already tried to use the basic themes but the issue is still there.
Thank you,
the Process
Whitespace above first image in topic

Importing data via sql
Published on January 8th, 2018 by Dirk1312Hi all,
I’d like to create new topics and posts from a former, self-developed forum. The data is available in a xml structure containing the following information:
– parent post id (0 if its the topic initializing post itself)
– author
– subject
– post
– timestamp
I now would like to insert the data via sql statements; all entries shall be added as anonymous posts. I can prepare them on my own, but I’ve no clue in which tables my posts have to be added. What I already did: Created a test forum, dumped the whole forum, added a new topic as anonymous user and again created a dump. Then I compared both dump files via notepad++. Now I’m not sure, which entries I really need.
The following tables were extended:
– bbpas
– Counterize_Pages
– options
– popularpostsdata
– popularpostssummary
– postmeta
– posts
– statistics_pages
– statistics_useronline (this is clear, that I don’t must extend this table manually?!)
– statistics_visit (this is clear, that I don’t must extend this table manually?!)
– statistics_visitor (this is clear, that I don’t must extend this table manually?!)
– wfHits (I guess this is also some kind of statistics and must not be filled manually?!)
Could you please help me? There should be no need to first lock the manually created entries and activate them as admin.
Thanks and kind regards,
Dirk
Hidden forums not visible to Participant role
Published on January 8th, 2018 by jasonbxyzHello,
I have a new bbpress site with buddypress integrated (bbpress was installed and set up first.) Admins can see all forums, Participants cannot see Hidden forums, unless it is associated with a buddypress group of which they are a member. The site is jingfangacademy.com
Fixes I have tried:
1. Deactivated all plugins one by one.
2. Tried other themes: 2013, 2015, 2016
3. Tools > Forums > ran all tools
4. Changed user role permissions with third-party plugins: User Role Editor, Members
5. WP and all plugins up to date.
I’ve added no CSS to the site. I’m a novice and I don’t own the hosting account, so I’m hoping to fix this without adding code. I’ve tried all the fixes I could find in related threads.
Thanks for any help!
