Notification emails to administrators for new topics and replies have been arriving in our emails, but Content: is missing the text, it is blank. This started 9/9/15, about 4 hours after the last ok notification.
The format of the notification emails is still correct, they are grabbing the topic title, the correct topic url and the “posted by” but the content is missing.
I checked the Forum settings in Settings and all settings are correct, have not changed. I re-saved them in case there was a hiccup but that did not change anything.
I see that someone else reported this about a year ago but wasn’t able to have any success fixing it.

I was thinking it might be helpful to run one or more Repairs, but I thought I had better check here first before just randomly clicking on “repairs” in an effort to fix this.
Any suggestions you can provide will be helpful. We really really depend on these bbPress notifications. We provide 24/7 assistance to dog owners who have very sick dogs and the emails are a critical part of doing that.
thank you, matoca
So I am new to bbPress. I am on the Kleo theme along with BuddyPress and iMember360.
I have automatically set all my users to spectator when registered, and I am going to setup a script to switch them to participant later.
But right now, I notice spectators can post! From what I have read, spectators should only be able to spectate.
I haven’t messed around with bbPress except for adding the visual editor, and styling the attach link modal.
What’s the deal?
Is there a plugin that creates fictitious users to start with some users at first forum?
I’m having all sorts of html code show up as part of bbpress email notifications. Worst when the text is pasted in from other webpages or emails, but that’s unavoidable with lots of people using a forum.
Even random characters when someone types directly in the editor.
I’m using wordpress’s built in mce editor with only visual mode available. Latest versions of wp and bb. Are there any solutions to fix this?
Example:
Thanks in advance! Rich
I’ve had my forums up for a couple weeks now and started getting new registrations (most look bogus). Checking my users page I see each is setup as “subscriber” under the Site Role but under the Forum Role its blank.
I don’t have a link to subscribe to my blog other than the “subscribe by email which does not create an account just adds them to an email list.
So my questions are why are users being registered and not being giving the “participant” role under the Forum Role? Yes the Forum setting is checked for participant. Is this bug?
Thanks for any help.

Hi all, is there any way to restrict that email notifications in a topic only apply to 2nd level replies to my reply? And not for other users replies on the same topic.
I don’t want to receive notifications of other replies in the topic I have replied.
Running:
– WordPress 4.1.5
– bbPress: 2.5.6
Thanks in advance!
I have asked for help twice and this has been deleted. I have read through the forum, searched the help files, and followed all requests. Please let me know what I am doing wrong but I need help with this.

I have to create multiple pages like the ones above. I have created the forums for each page which include: parents, teachers, students but the problem comes with the post into a board. I had to remove breadcrumbs since it took them back to the forum home with all the boards. I am going to have many more pages like above. Is there a way to have when they post go back to the page they came from?
Right now after they submit they see this with no way to get back to say this page mysite.com/ims/
I’m going through the odious task of importing a Ning forum to bbPress. The hard part (or so I thought) is done. I was able to get about everything from Ning into BuddyPress.
However, when I get to the last phase–BuddyPress to bbPress migration–which I thought would be easy-peasy, I lose all the replies to the forum topics! I’m following the migration process exactly (as far as I know) but it always fails. Here are the details:
I’m currently on a local server using XAMPP.
WordPress 4.2.4
BuddyPress 2.3.3 (using the default theme)
bbPress 2.5.8
The only other plugins I have installed are The Events Calendar (which you kind of need for the Ning conversion) and BackupBuddy, so that I can restore/reset after every unsuccessful attempt.
I have a smallish forum of fewer than 100 people and 4 groups.
At the time of this writing, I’ve restored the site to its last successful state:
– All data successfully imported into BuddyPress
– bbPress is installed and activated
– Final migration has not yet been attempted.
So, you can see all forums and replies, etc., in the BuddyPress theme on the site. The bbPress forums section in the admin menu is empty, as expected.
Now my typical next step, which always fails, is to follow the codex on migrating forums from BuddyPress to bbPress. I’ve been following it to the letter:
Migrating from old forums to bbPress 2.2+
Unfortunately, during Step 5, the actual import step, I get the following error message:
WordPress database error: [Table 'foo.wp_bb_terms' doesn't exist]
SELECT convert(term_relationships.object_id USING "utf8mb4") AS object_id,convert(term_taxonomy.term_taxonomy_id USING "utf8mb4") AS term_taxonomy_id,convert(terms.name USING "utf8mb4") AS name,convert(terms.slug USING "utf8mb4") AS slug FROM wp_bb_term_relationships AS term_relationships INNER JOIN wp_bb_term_taxonomy AS term_taxonomy USING (term_taxonomy_id) INNER JOIN wp_bb_terms AS terms USING (term_id) LIMIT 0, 100
I can’t tell if it is just complaining or if the import has actually failed at that point. Nevertheless, I finish all the steps. At that point, the groups have become forums in bbPress and the topics have transferred but only the first post in each. All replies are gone and I haven’t found any way to restore them.
One additional detail–I don’t know if it’s relevant. In order to do the Ning conversion, it’s best if you use BuddyPress v1.6, which I did. Afterward, I updated to the latest version. (Is that why wp_bb_terms didn’t get created?)
I’d greatly appreciate any insight on this. I’m so happy to be getting away from Ning–I can’t believe I’m getting tripped up on the WP side! 🙂
