bbPress.org

I am on my second attempt of using bbPress, but I am having a little issue. When someone creates a discussion post, it doesn’t show up. Check out my forum at DCCollectors.com, and you can see what I am talking about. When clicking on the post link, it doesn’t show what has been posted.

I did an import from phpBB a while back.

Now, I notice the topics marked as sticky do appear at top of topic list view. But I am noticing that some of the stickies also appear several pages into the topic list view (according to the date they were published). So there is one at the top, and one in the location according to it’s date (two of the same topic).

I used the forum tools in an attempt to repair an sync issues, with no luck.

It’s strange, because it only happens with some of the stickies.

Any suggestions on how I can get only the one sticky to appear at top of forum list? Thanks for any help.

Notice: bp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init(). Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 1.7.)

Why? and How to fix?

Buddypress also had this error, but they fixed it almost 2 years ago. Something to do with calling is_user_logged_in()

Hi all,

I hope you guys can offer some advice suggestions here.

This is the situation:

– I have a wordpress multi-site setup (4 blogs in total)
– There are currently 4 xenforo forums I need to import. These need to be imported in to my 4 multi-site blogs. One xenforo forum to each of the 4 blogs.
– all users from all xenforo forums, imported in to each of the 4 blogs should be able to visit each of those 4 blogs and post in any they choose

The goal is to ultimately have a single user base within my wordpress multi-site, but with 4 different forums running (one under each blog), where users can access and post data in all of them (as well as submit regular post comments etc)

The main issue I can see me having is that each xenforo forum will have users who’s IDs start at 1, and go up to about 15,000 (lots of users!!). If I import one forum in to the first multisite blog, then what happens when I import the next forum in the second multisite blog? Will users get overwritten? Will forum topics/replies get attributed to the wrong user?

Note: I am also running buddypress.

A solution I have considered is to import all users from xenforo forum 1. Then loop through all users in xenforo forum 2 to update their ID’s to +15,000 (i.e user with ID 1 becomes user with ID 15001 etc). Then import that forum in to bbpress. Then do the same with xenforo forums 3 and 4 (+30000, +45000).

That is a hefty task though.

Any advice/help would be really appreciated!

I’ve made the decision to develop my new websites using WordPress. My goal is to eventually re-write my PHP code as a WordPress plugin, but, until then I need to use what’s available, and bbPress seems like a good option. I need to import/map my current tables to work with bbPRess, but not sure how?

Here is the existing schema along with one parent record, and one child record:

Forum_1962 (
Forum mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
Forum_Title varchar(200) NOT NULL DEFAULT ”,
Forum_Author varchar(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT ”,
Forum_Author_Email varchar(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT ”,
Forum_Text text NOT NULL,
Forum_Parent mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’,
Forum_Ancestor mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’,
Forum_Category smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’,
Forum_Approved enum(‘0′,’1’) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘1’,
Forum_Entered_by varchar(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’,
Forum_Date_Created datetime NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’,
Forum_Last_Changed timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
PRIMARY KEY (Forum),
KEY Forum_Parent (Forum_Parent),
KEY Forum_Category (Forum_Category),
KEY Forum_Approved (Forum_Approved),
FULLTEXT KEY Forum_Title (Forum_Title),
FULLTEXT KEY Forum_Text (Forum_Text)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1;

Parent thread
=============
(19261, ‘Can I rent an RV?’, ‘BillB’, ‘bill@web-crafter.net’, ‘I\’d like to give RVing a try, but there\’s no way I\’m going to plunk down thousands of $$ to buy an RV. Is it possible to rent an RV like you\’d a car?’, 0, 19261, 1962, ‘1’, ‘rvcn’, ‘2002-12-12 13:52:29’, ‘2002-12-12 13:53:25’);

Ancestor thread
===============
(19262, ‘Re: Can I rent an RV?’, ‘Mark’, ‘mark@ittelligent.com’, ‘No problem. Just check your yellow pages for a rental agency in your area. I know there are a few national outfits too. Cruise America and El Monte come to mind off the top of my head.’, 19261, 19261, 1962, ‘1’, ”, ‘2002-12-12 13:59:42’, ‘2002-12-12 13:59:42’);

You’ll notice that there are fields for both parent and ancestor, which allows for infinite sub-topic threads (those replies to replies under one parent). Also, I the author name and email are also stored in this table, and not tied to a separate user table (so will need to address that). Each MySQL dump is between 1MB and 3MB.

Need any more information? Please advise.

My goal is one of two options:

1. Import/Map existing table dumps in several websites to WordPress and bbPress using above forum schema as source, OR
2. Convert my existing PHP forum code to be compatible with WordPress and forget about bbPress altogether if I can’t easily map the table (I don’t know WordPress enough to even think about doing this myself, even though the code is simple and fast, and will ne advice on someone who can)

I am doing this so I can better control the mobile templates and have a more robust way of controlling my websites. I need to do this for about 6 websites, and would like the method to do this myself after the first time.

Thanks in advance,

Lisa

Hello to all

The checkbox for “Keep a log of this edit” is marked by default. Is there a way to have it unchecked by default?

Thanks a lot!

Hello all,

I’ve a problem with users trying to login on bbpress when using chrome.
They enter their username and password and then the pages refreshes and they are not logged in.
If I try this with a test account on IE it does work normally
I’m at a loss here.

WP version is 4.1.1 and BBpress is 2.5.6
The same thing happens if I use a different theme (Bundled one)
Here’s a link to the site : http://www.animosityonlinegaming.com/

Can anyone point me in the right direction??

How on earth do i change the color of the “create new topic” background. it is the same as my site’s background and is very hard to see. Any suggestions?

When someone goes to a forum they don’t have permission to see, they get a 404 error page.
Is it possible to change the text on this page?

Hi!
PLease, help me to fix this!

I don’t understand: bbpress in my site uses template page.php. In this template we have:
<?php get_template_part('inc/page-title'); ?>.
In /inc/page-title.php we have:
<?php elseif ( is_page() ): ?><h2><?php echo alx_page_title(); ?></h2>

But in http://muzl.it/forums/ we have title
<div class="page-title pad group"><h2>Темы</h2></div>
and in http://muzl.it/forums/topic/lorem-ipsum/ we haven’t title:
<div class="page-title pad group"><ul class="meta-single group"><li class="category"></div>

How to fix it?
