Hi

I happened to check a mail account we are not using yet, when we moved servers. It turns out there are quite a few emails in that account. They are all forum activity alerts coming from BBPress on the site. These are the kind of mails being received:

You are receiving this email because you subscribed to a forum topic.

Login and visit the topic to unsubscribe from these emails.

It seems to be sending these alerts to a user. But there is no ‘to’ username on the emails. I have done several searches on our user database and there are no users with that email address.

I have done a full database search for that email address and come up with nothing.

I have looked absolutely everywhere I can think of within WP admin, for any instance of that address, and can find none. Unless it’s buried away in some obscure corner of a plugin, I am pretty sure I have looked everywhere relevant that I could think of.

I am downloading the entire site, to do a search on that string within the site files, as a last resort. I’m not optimistic.

Can anyone point me in the right direction about this?

Many thanks for your time.

Hey All,

I’m in the process of migrating an archaic and otherwise obsolete custom-built forum written in ASP to bbPress. The forum has been around for about 20 years and it was essentially a vBulletin clone. It has roughly 10 million posts and growing.

I’d exported CSVs of tables from the existing forum. We imported the users into the database and then associated them with the relevant posts. In the database now, wp_postmeta is 2.5 GB and wp_posts is 4.4 GB. Suffice to say everything is slower now, but the forum is 1200bps dialup modem slow.

I installed Query-Monitor to try and figure it out and this query is taking 53 seconds:

SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wp_posts.ID
FROM wp_posts
INNER JOIN wp_postmeta
ON ( wp_posts.ID = wp_postmeta.post_id )
WHERE 1=1
AND wp_posts.post_parent = 36005
AND ( wp_postmeta.meta_key = ‘_bbp_last_active_time’ )
AND wp_posts.post_type = ‘topic’
AND ((wp_posts.post_status = ‘publish’
OR wp_posts.post_status = ‘pending’
OR wp_posts.post_status = ‘closed’
OR wp_posts.post_status = ‘hidden’)
OR (wp_posts.post_status = ‘private’))
GROUP BY wp_posts.ID
ORDER BY wp_postmeta.meta_value DESC
LIMIT 0, 15

I spent time checking out this ticket https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1925 but wasn’t really left with an idea of what I should be doing to fix this. Not really sure where I should start in thinking about how to get this down to normal speed. I have this running on pretty stacked machine and DB instances on Google Cloud, but I’m open to any input around what the specs of the boxes need to be to handle this.

Also, we’re also migrating our e-commerce site to WooCommerce from Shopify, so speed is definitely a huge issue and I don’t want to have the whole site be slow just because of the forum.

Thanks for any help!

Hi all,
We have set a few rules to moderate topics with too many links, etc. We also have new topic notifications set up and working when topics don’t go to moderation. However, if a topic goes to moderation, the new topic notification does not go out when the topic is approved. Is that normal? If so, is there any way to hook the new topic notifications into the approval process so that the notifications are sent out when the topic is approved?

Thanks for any help with this!

Hello,

I just want to import my phpBB forum (version 3.2.0) to BBpress. I tried with “tools/import” but it doesn’t work. The tools didn’t import a single forum or topic.

How can I do this?

Another question : how can I increase the size of the font in BBpress? I would have the same size as this forum, on wordpress.org. The original size is really too small.

Thanks a lot.

Hi there,

I need to make changes in css that only happen inside all posts en forums of a parent forum.

This is easy to do on all subtopics and posts because the bbp-parent-forum-###class is added to the div classes of the posts.

These classes are not added to the reply forms or a parent div. How can I add the generated bp-parent-forum-### class to the reply forms as well?

Thanks in advance!

Dennis.

Hi !
I have a trouble, i tried to resolve since weeks without result so I came to you for help.

When I go to this url /members/name/forums/replies/ for see all user replies, it’s return a Error 500. It’s seams be a memory issue :

[Thu Nov 02 10:44:53.547322 2017] [:error] [pid 18053:tid 115435497309952] [client 90.105.98.10:34272] FastCGI: server “/usr/lib/cgi-bin/php7-fcgi-dps-ssl” stderr: PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 20480 bytes) in wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line 81

But I don’t understand why, how it’s work and how fix this issue.

The weirder part it’s then i log with a admin account, the page appeart without any trouble, I have errors only if I’m not log or log with a lower level.

If anybody have a idee, it’s be great.
Thanks !

Hello all, I have been searching for a solution and it appears that the bbpress install does not automatically add topic structure like this example:

import old Buddypress forum : users = ANONYMOUS

NOTE: “/forums/topic/import-old-buddypress-forum-users-anonymous/”

On my bbpress install topics structure looks like this:

“/topic/test/” – where “test” is the topic title

I wish to include the forums structure like the bbpress.org forums does.

I have searched and searched and let me to result in making a post. Does bbpress not include this automatically like they have on their forums?

Thank you kindly,
J.

Hi, I’m having a problem with my bbpress 2.5.14 forum. When connected as an administrator I have the links to edit, spam, strash,…
I can edit posts, but clicking trash or spam does nothing : the link seems OK (somthing like /forums/topic/subject/?view=all&action=bbp_toggle_reply_trash&sub_action=trash&reply_id=2601&_wpnonce=e3eb42b7d4) but just brings back to the same page and the answer stays there.
When I go to WP admin the answer is still published. I tried moving an answer to trash from the admin, it works and on the forum page it states that there is an hidden answer (as it should) but the link on this message (/?view=all) doesn’t show the hidden post.
Also in admin when I go to the trash and try to reactivate the answer I come to a page asking if I am sure I want to do this but it does noting. The only way I found is to use the batch action.
(I’m on a french version so some terms might be wrong, but I hope you undestand my problem).
Has anyone encountered that problem ?

I’m trying to search topics with particular tags and I’m using get_the_tags($id) where $id is topic id ofcourse. But it returns empty array even though the topic has tags associated to it.? What is the native bbpress function for this if there is any.?
